Ba Loma 11
1 Ndamba kuti, ino Leza wakabakaka na bantu bakwe? Takukwe nichitabi boobo. Nkaambo ambe ndili munaIzilayeli, silunyungu lwaAbbulahamu, wamukowa waBenjamini.
I saye then: hath god cast awaye his people? God forbyd. For even I verely am an Israelite of the seed of Abraha and of ye tribe of Beniamin
2 Leza tewakaka bantu bakwe, mbakaziba kale. Tamuzi na malembe kuti atyeni aElija, mbakakombelezya Leza kubana Izilayeli?
god hath not cast awaye his people which he knew before. Ether wote ye not what the scripture sayth by the mouth of Helias how he maketh intercession to god agaynst Israel sayinge:
3 “Mwami, bakajeya basinsimi bako, bakapwayila ansi zipayililo zyabo. Imebo andike ndime wakachaala, alubo balikuyandula bwangu bumi.”
Lorde they have kylled thy prophetes and dygged doune thyn alters: and I am lefte only and they seke my lyfe.
4 Pesi Leza nsandulo yake ityeni kulinguwe? “Ndakalibambila musanu ababili zyulu zyabalumi batana kutyola zwi kuli Bbaala.”
But what sayth the answer of god to him agayne? I have reserved vnto me seven thousande men which have not bowed the knee to Baal.
5 Nikuba obo lino, kuli chechino chiindi chasunu kuli bacheede akambo kakusalwa kwaluzyalo.
Even so at this tyme ys ther a remnanaunt lefte thorow the eleccion of grace.
6 Pesi na nzyakuluzyalo, tazichili zyakumilimu. Ateni luzyalo taluchike kuyoba luzyalo. Amwi malembe alabalwa pesi na zyitwa amilimu, mpawo tazichili zyaluzyalo; akutali kuti mulimu tuchili mulimu.
Yf it be of grace the is it not of workes. For then were grace no moare grace. Yf it be of workes then is it no moare grace. For then were deservyng no lenger deservynge.
7 Niyi lino? Chintu bana Izilayeli nchibayandula, nchibakatajana, abayingi bakayumisigwa.
What then? Israel hath not obtayned that that he sought. No but yet the election hath obtayned it. The remnaunt are blynded
8 Chili mbuli mbuchilembedwe: “Leza wakabapa Muuya wabufubafuba, meso kuchitila kuti bataboni, a matwi kuchitila kuti batamvwi, kusika muli obuno buzuba.”
accordynge as it is written: God hath geven the the sprete of vnquyetnes: eyes that they shuld not se and eares that they shuld not heare even vnto this daye.
9 Mpawo Davida wamba kuti, “Muleke tafula lyabo libe kanyandi akakole, lyakubaleba akubabeda chumyo kulimbabo.
And David sayth: Let their table be made a snare to take them with all and an occasion to faule and a rewarde vnto them.
10 Muleke menso abo asizigwe kuchitila kuti bataboni, akutyola misana yabo lyonse.”
Let their eyes be blynded that they se not: and ever bowe doune their backes.
11 Ndamba, “Bakalebwa na kusikila kukuwa?” Chitakabi obo. Pele, achibi chabo, lufutuko lwasika kuli baMasi, kuchitila kuti basungilizigwe kubuzuba.
I saye then: Have they therfore stombled that they shulde but faule only? God forbyd: but thorowe their faule is salvacio happened vnto the gentyls for to provoke the with all.
12 Lino na chibi chabo mbuvubi bwakunyika, na kuswekelwa kwabo mbuvubi bwabaMasi, buyoba bupati kukuzuzikizya kwabo?
Wherfore yf the faule of them be the ryches of the worlde: and the mynysshynge of them the ryches of the gentyls: How moche more shuld it be so yf they all beleved.
13 Pesi lino ndilikwambula kulindinywe nibaMasi, kufumbwa kuti kandili apositoli kuli baMasi, ndilalutangalo mumulimu wangu.
I speake to you gentyls in as moche as I am the Apostle of ye gentyls I will magnify myn office
14 Ateni ndilakusungilizya kubuzuba kulibabo bayangu nyama. Ateni twali kunofutuka bamwi babo.
that I myght provoke them which are my flesshe and myght save some of them.
15 Kuti kukaka kwabo kwamba kuyandana kwakunyika, kuyoba nzi kutambula kwabo pesi buumi kuzwa kubafwide?
For yf the castynge awaye of them be the reconcylynge of the worlde: what shall the receavynge of them be but lyfe agayne from deeth?
16 Kuti michelo mitanzi kayisalala, mbubede munsuma wachinkwa. Kuti muyanda kusalala, mbibede amitabi,
For yf one pece be holy the whole heepe is holy. And yf the rote be holy the braunches are holy also.
17 Pesi na imwi mitabi yakakuzuka, na webo uli mutabi wamuOlifa wamusokwe, wakabikwa akati kabo, alubo na wakaabana ambabo mumuvubi bwamuyanda wamunsamu muOlifa,
Though some of the brauuches be broken of and thou beynge a wylde olyue tree arte graft in amonge them and made parttaker of ye rote and fatnes of the olyve tree
18 mutakalikankayizyi atala amitabi. Pesi na mwalikaknkayizya, teensi ndinywe munyampula mayanda, pesi muyanda ngumunyampula.
bost not thy selfe agaynst the brauches. For yf thou bost thy selfe remember that thou bearest not the rote but the rote the.
19 Muyowamba kuti, “Mitabi yakatyoka kuchitila kuti ndibike mukati.”
Thou wilt saye then: the brauches are broken of that I myght be grafte in.
20 Eyo ninchonzyo nkaambo kakutasyoma kwabo bakakuzuka, pesi muliima nji nkaambo kalusyomo lwanu. Mutayeyi loko atala andinywe, pesi akuyowa.
Thou sayest well: because of vnbeleve they are broken of and thou stondest stedfast in fayth.
21 Kuti na Leza takabika kulubazu mitabi yabube, takukwe mbayomu mbayobika kulubazu anywebo.
Be not hye mynded but feare seynge that God spared not the naturall braunches lest haply he also spare not the.
22 Mulange, mpawo, zyiito zyabuya abuyumu bwaLeza: buyumu bwakasikila baJuda bakawa, pesi bubotu bwaLeza buza alindinywe na mwayendelela mubuya bwakwe. Atela anywebo muyogwisigwa.
Beholde ye kyndnes and rigorousnes of God: on the which fell rigorousnes: but towardes the kyndnes yf thou cotinue in his kyndnes. Or els thou shalt be hewen of
23 Alubo nikuba mbabo nikuba mbabo na tebendelela mukutasyoma kwabo, nkambo Leza ulakonzya kubabika alubo.
and they yf they byde not still in vnbelefe shalbe graffed in agayne. For God is of power to graffe them in agayne.
24 Na mwakaligwisigilwe kuli zyabube bwamunsamu wamusokwe muOlifa, akukazyana abube bwakabikwa mumunsamu mubotu muOlifa, bayoba biyeni kuli eyi mitabi, bakabikwe lubo kumunyina muOlifa?
For yf thou wast cut out of a naturall wilde olyve tree and wast graffed contrary to nature in a true olyve tree: how moche more shall the naturall brauches be graffed in their awne olyve tree agayne.
25 Nkambo tandiyandi kuti mutabi batakwe luzibo, nibakwesu asinswa eyi, kuti mutakabi basongo mukuyeya kwanu. Kuyumya kumwi kwasikila Izilayeli kusikila mwelwe woonse wabamasi banjila.
I wolde not that this secrete shuld be hyd fro you my brethren (lest ye shuld be wyse in youre awne consaytes) that partly blyndnes is happened in Israel vntyll ye fulnes of the gentyls be come in:
26 Nkaako Izilayeli woonse uyokufutulwa, mbuli mbukulembedwe: “Kuzwa muZiyoni nkwayozwa munununi. Uyogwisya kubula Leza kuzwa kuli Jakobe,
and so all Israel shalbe saved. As it is writte: There shall come oute of Sion he yt doth delyver and shall turne awaye the vngodlynes of Iacob.
27 alimwi eechi chiyoba chizuminano ambabo, nintakagwisye zibi zyabo.”
And this is my covenaunt vnto them when I shall take awaye their synnes.
28 Mbuli makani mabotu mbalangide, mbasinkondonyokwe kuchitila ndinywe. Pesi mbulilusalo mbolubede, baliyandidwe akaambo kaba similimu bakale.
As cocernynge the gospell they are enemies for youre sakes: but as touchinge the election they are loved for ye fathers sakes.
29 Nkaambo zipego akwiitwa kwaLeza tazisanduliki.
For verely the gyftes and callynge of god are soche that it cannot repent him of them:
30 Mbuli mbumwakali bataswilili kuli Leza, lino mwatambula luse akambo kakutaswilila kwabo.
for loke as ye in tyme passed have not beleved God yet have now obtayned mercy thorow their vnbelefe:
31 Munzila njiyonya eyo, lino aba baJuda bakaba bataswilili. Mpindu yakali yakuti aluse lutondezedwe kulindinywe bakatambula luse alubo.
even so now have they not beleved the mercy which is happened vnto you that they also maye obtayne mercy.
32 Nkaambo Leza wakazijalila zyoonse mukutaswilila kuchitila kuti atondezye luse kuli bonse. (eleēsē g1653)
God hath wrapped all nacions in vnbeleve that he myght have mercie on all. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Aah, kunika kwakuvubi antomwe bwabusongo a luzibo lwaLeza! Taziyanduuliki biyeni mbeteko, anzila zyakwe zyiinda kubbutula!
O the depnes of the aboundaunt wysdome and knowledge of God: how vnserchable are his iudgementes and his wayes past findyng out.
34 “Nguni wakaziba miyeeyyo yaMwami na nguni wakaba sikumuchenjezya?
For who hath knowen the mynde of the lorde? or who was his counseller?
35 Na nguni wakatalika kupa chintu kuliLeza, kuti Leza amubwedezye?”
other who hath geven vnto him fyrst that he myght be recompensed agayne?
