Jo-Rumi 1
1 An Paulo, misumba Yesu Kristo, mane oluongi mondo obed jaote, kendo nowala mondo ayal Injili mar Nyasaye.
Paul, a servant of Messiah Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
2 Injilini nosingo chon gi dho jonabi e Muma Maler;
which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
3 kowuoyo kuom Wuode, ma en Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa ma en nyakwar Daudi kuom ringruok.
concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,
4 To kuom Roho Maler nonyis ratiro ni en Wuod Nyasaye, nikech teko mane ochierego koa kuom joma otho, ma en Yesu Kristo Ruodhwa.
who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus (the) Messiah our Lord,
5 Kuome kendo e nyinge ema waseyudoe ngʼwono gi teko mar bedo joote, mondo wami ogendini duto oyie kuome kendo oluore.
through whom we received grace and the office of apostle, for obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name's sake;
6 To un bende un e kanyakla achiel gi jogo moseluongi mondo ubed jo-Yesu Kristo.
among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus (the) Messiah;
7 Ni ji duto man Rumi, ma Nyasaye ohero kendo oluongo mondo obed jomaler: Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuonwa kod Ruoth Yesu Kristo obed kodu.
to all who are in Rome, loved by God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus (the) Messiah.
8 Mokwongo, adwokone Nyasacha erokamano, kuom Yesu Kristo nikech un duto, nimar yie maru landore e pinje duto.
First, I thank my God through Jesus (the) Messiah for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
9 Nyasaye ma atiyone gi chunya duto, ka alando Injili mar Wuode, en janenona kaka asiko aparou e lamona kinde duto
For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how I constantly mention you
10 kendo alamo ni ka Nyasaye oyie to mondo ayud thuolo mar biro iru.
always in my prayers, requesting, if by any means now at last I may succeed by the will of God to come to you.
11 Agombo nenou ahinya mondo apognue mich moko mag chuny mondo ategugo,
For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you;
12 tiende ni, mondo un kod an wajiwre ngʼato gi ngʼato e yie marwa, ka ajiwou to un bende ujiwa.
that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.
13 Jowetena, ok adwar ni ubed kukia, ni asedwaro kuom ndalo mathoth mondo abi iru, to timo kamano osetama nyaka kawuononi, mondo an bende ati tich maber e dieru mana kaka asetimo e dier joma ok jo-Yahudi.
Now I do not desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other non-Jewish people.
14 An jagop jo-Yunani gi joma ok jo-Yunani, kendo mar joma riek kod joma ofuwo.
I have an obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15 Mano emomiyo aketo chunya ni nyaka un bende ayalnu Injili, un ma un Rumi.
So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
16 Aonge wichkuot kuom Injilini, nikech en e teko mar Nyasaye makelo ni ngʼato angʼata moyie warruok, mokwongo ni jo-Yahudi, eka bangʼe ni joma ok jo-Yahudi bende.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
17 Nikech kuom Injilino ema Nyasaye ketoe dhano kare kuom yie kende ma ok omedie gimoro machielo, mana kaka ondiki niya, “Ngʼat makare nobed mangima kuom yie.”
For in it is revealed God's righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, "But the righteous will live by faith."
18 Mirimb Nyasaye koro fwenyore koa e polo kuom ji duto motamore lame, kendo matimo richo ka gigengʼo adiera gi timbegi maricho.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people, who suppress the truth by unrighteousness,
19 Nikech gima dhano nyalo ngʼeyo kuom Nyasaye oyangorenigi maler, nikech Nyasaye oseelenigi.
because what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
20 Nyaka aa chakruok mar piny, gik ma ok ne mag Nyasaye, kaka tekone mochwere gi kite, osenenore malongʼo ka gifwenyore e gik mosechweyo, mondo omi dhano kik wuondre ni kiagi. (aïdios g126)
For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made. So they are without excuse. (aïdios g126)
21 Kata obedo ni negingʼeyo Nyasaye kamano, to ne ok gimiye duongʼ kaka Nyasaye, kendo ne ok gidwokone erokamano, to pachgi nobedo manono kendo chunygi mofuyo nodinore.
Because, although they knew God, they did not glorify him as God or give him thanks, but their thinking became nonsense, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Kata obedo ni negiwacho ni giriek, to negibedo joma ofuwo,
Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
23 kendo negiloko duongʼ mar Nyasaye ma ok tho e kido machalo gi dhano matho, gi winy, gi le gi gik mamol.
and traded the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal humans, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and crawling creatures.
24 Mano emomiyo Nyasaye nojwangʼogi e paro modwanyore ma chunygi ne gombo timo, ka giketho dendgi gi kit chode duto e kindgi ngʼato gi ngʼato.
Therefore God also abandoned them in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the degrading of their bodies among themselves,
25 Negiloko adiera mar Nyasaye odoko miriambo kendo negilamo ka gitiyo ni gik mochwe kar tiyo ni Nyasaye ma Jachwech, mipako nyaka chiengʼ Amin. (aiōn g165)
who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creation rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 Kuom mano, Nyasaye nojwangʼogi moweyogi e gombo maricho makelo wichkuot. Mondegi noweyo riwore gi chwogi e yo mowinjore, to negichako riwore gi mon wetegi.
For this reason, God abandoned them to their degrading passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for that which is contrary to nature.
27 Chwo bende noluwo mana yo machalre; kar riwruok gi mon e yo mowinjore, to dendgi noowore gi gombo chwo wetegi. Chwo notimo timbe dwanyruok gi chwo wetegi, kendo timgino nomiyo giyudo kum e dendgi giwegi mowinjore gi kethogino.
Likewise also the men, giving up natural relations with women, burned in their lust toward one another, men with men, committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
28 To bende, kaka negiparo ni ngʼeyo Nyasaye ok lich, Nyasaye nojwangʼogi mondo gidhi adhiya nyime ka pachgi obam, mondo gitim, gik ma ok onego otim.
Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God abandoned them to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not right;
29 Gipongʼ gi kit timbe mamono duto, gi richo, gi wuoro kod timbe mobam. Bende gipongʼ gi ich lit, gi nek, gi dhawo, gi wuond kod himruok. Gin jokuoth,
being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,
30 joma ketho nying ji, joma ochayo Nyasaye, jokwinyo, joma wigi tek, kendo josunga, jogo mapile fwenyo yore manyien mag timo richo; kendo ok giwinj jonywolgi;
slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 gionge paro, gionge yie, gionge hera, kendo gionge kech.
foolish, promise-breakers, heartless, unforgiving, unmerciful;
32 Kata obedo ni gingʼeyo chik makare mar Nyasaye ni joma timo gik ma kamago owinjore gi tho, to gidhiyo adhiya nyime gi timogi, kendo bende gipwoyo joma timogi.
who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
