Romans 11
1 I say therefore, did God thrust away his people? May it not happen! For I also am an Israelite from the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Le hoe ty asako, Ke nifarien’ Añahare ondati’eo? Sondo’e izay! Izaho ka nte-Israele! tarira’ i Abraàme, fifokoa’ i Benjamina.
2 God did not thrust away his people whom he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture tells by Elijah? How he encounters God about Israel.
Tsy napon’ Añahare ondaty niarofoana’e haehaeo. He tsy fohi’ areo ty nanoe’ i Sokitse Masiñey ty amy Elia, ie nitoreo aman’ Andrianañahare ty am’Israele?
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and they have torn down thine altars, and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
O Talè, zinama’ iereo o mpitoki’oo, kinimokimo’ iereo o kitreli’oo; le honka’e raho vaho te hañe-doza amako iereo?
4 But what does the divine response say to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed a knee to Baal.
Aa le ino ty natoin’ Añahare aze: Fa nitanako ho ahy ty lahilaly fito-arivo tsy nanongaleke amy Baale.
5 So then also at this present time there has become a remnant according to the selection of grace.
Manahake izay, ao ty sehanga’e henaneo, jinoboñe ami’ty fatariha’e.
6 And if it is by grace, it is no longer from works, otherwise grace becomes no longer grace. But if it is from works it is no longer grace, otherwise work is no longer work.
Aa kanao am-patarihañe, le tsy am-pimanemanean-dily; naho tsy izay tsy ho natao fatarihañe i fatarihañey.
7 What then? What Israel seeks, this it did not obtain. But the chosen obtained it, and the rest were hardened,
Aa le akore? Mboe tsy rinambe’ Israele i paia’ey, o jinoboñeo ro nandrambe, fe nampigañeñe ty ila’e,
8 just as it is written that God gave them a spirit of slumber: eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, until this very day.
ty amy pinatetsey: Tinolon’ Añahare arofo midebedebe iereo fihaino tsy mahaisake naho ravembia tsy mahajanjiñe pake henaneo.
9 And David says, Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling block, and for a retribution to them.
Hoe t’i Davide: Ee te ho fàndrike ty fandambaña’ iareoo, naho koboñe; naho vato mampitsikapy vaho fandilovañe am’ iareo.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, not to see, and may thou bow down their back always.
Ehe te haieñe o fihaino’ iareoo, tsy hahaisake; le hivokoke nainai’e o lambosi’ iareoo.
11 I say then, did they stumble so that they would fall? May it not happen! But in their transgression, salvation is to the Gentiles, in order to provoke them to jealousy.
Aa le hoe iraho: Hera nitsikapy naho nikorovoke iereo? Sondo’e izay! te mone ninday fandrombahañe ho amo kilakila ondatio ty fikorovoha’ iareo, hampikirañe iareo.
12 Now if their transgression is wealth of the world, and their failure is wealth of Gentiles, how much more their fullness?
Aa naho vara ho ami’ty voatse toy ty fandilara’ iareo, naho hanàñañe ho a o kilakila ondatio ty filesa’ iareo, sandrake t’ie fonireñe?
13 For I speak to you the Gentiles. Inasmuch as I am indeed an apostle of Gentiles, I enhance my ministry,
(Inahareo kilakila’ ondatio ‘nio ro ivolañako). Aa kanao Firàhe’ o kilakila ondatio iraho, le ho sengèko i fitoroñakoy,
14 if somehow I may provoke my flesh to jealousy and may save some of them.
ke ao ty hampamarahieko amo toe nofokoo, hañahàñe ty ila’e.
15 For if the casting away of them is reconciliation of the world, what is the acceptance except life from the dead?
Fa kanao minday fifampilongoañe ami’ty voatse toy ty fifariañe iareo, le ho inoñe naho tsy haveloñe boak’ an-kavilasy t’ie rambeseñe?
16 And if the first fruit is holy, the branch is also. And if the root is holy, the branches are also.
Naho miavake i loha-voay, le miavake ka ty vonga’e. Kanao miavake ty vahatse, le o singa’eo ka.
17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a joint partaker of the root of the fatness of the olive tree,
Aa naho pinekapenkañe ty singa ila’e, le ihe, singan-oliva tsotra ty navitrañe amy iereo vaho natraoke ami’ty vahatse naho ty mena’ i hatae olivay,
18 do not boast against the branches. But if thou boast, thou do not bear the root, but the root thee.
le ko rengevohe’o o singa’eo, fa naho mirenge, Inao, tsy ihe ty mameloñe o vaha’eo, fa o vahatseo ro mameloñe azo.
19 Thou will therefore say, Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.
Hera hanao ty hoe irehe: Va’e nipenkàñañe o singao hamitrañañe ahy ao.
20 Correct! They were broken off for their unbelief, and thou stand by thy faith. Be not high-minded but fear,
Eka; toe pinèkañe iereo ty amy tsy fatokisa’ iareo, fa ty fatokisa’o ro ijohaña’o. Aa le ko miriñake fa mañeveña;
21 for if God spared not the natural branches, perhaps neither will he spare thee.
fa kanao nifarien’ Añahare o toe singa’eo le mahafary azo ka.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and the severity of God. Indeed toward those who fell, severity, but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness, otherwise thou too will be cut off.
Inao ty fatarihan’ Añahare naho ty hasarots’ arofo’e, ie tsy mihilotse amo nikorovokeo, fe ama’areo ty fatarihan’ Añahare naho toe mifahatse amy fatariha’ey, tsy mone haito.
23 And also those, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
Ie ka, naho tsy mitoloñe an-tsi-fatokisañe, le havitrañe ao, amy te lefen’ Añahare ty hamitraña’e indraike.
24 For if thou were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, the natural ones, be grafted into their own olive tree.
Fa ihe binira amy hatae olivan’ alay vaho navitrañe amy hatae oliva navaeñe, mpirafe ama’ey, le antsake te mete havitrañe amy hatae oliva’ey o nisinga’eo.
25 For I do not want you, brothers, to be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise according to yourselves, that a callousness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles come in.
Tsy noko, ry longo, ty hamoea’ areo o raha miheotse zao, tsy mone hihabo-kihitse ty amy hagoañe nahazo ty ila’ Israele ampara’ te tafazilike ao o kilakila’ ndaty mahahenekeo.
26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written, The man who delivers will come from Zion, and will turn away impiety from Jacob.
Ie amy zao, hene ho rombaheñe t’Israele, ty amy pinatetsey: Hiboak’ e Ziona ao t’i Mpijebañe; le haloli’e am’ Iakobe ty halotsere’e;
27 And this is the covenant from me to them when I will take away their sins.
Le zao ty ho fañinako am’ iereo naho hahàko o hakeo’ iareoo.
28 They are indeed enemies toward the good news for your sake, but toward selection, they are beloved for the fathers' sake.
Naho i talili-soay, le naitoañe iereo ty ama’ areo; f’ie naho o fijoboñañeo le ikokoañe ty aman-droae’ iareo.
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
Toe tsy hahàfeñe o falalàn’ Añahareo naho o fikanjia’eo.
30 For as ye once were also disobedient to God, but now have received mercy at the disobedience of these,
Fa hambañe ami’ty nanjehara’ areo an’ Andrianañahare taolo, fe iferenaiñañe henaneo ty amy fanjehara’ iareoy,
31 so also now these have been disobedient for thy mercy, so that they also may receive mercy.
le manjehatse ka iereo henaneo, soa t’ie ami’ty fitretrezañe anahareo ro hiferenaiñañe.
32 For God has confined all men in disobedience, so that he might be merciful to all. (eleēsē g1653)
Kila nagaben’ Añahare am-panjeharañe ao soa te hene hiferenaiña’e. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of wealth, both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways beyond finding out!
Ee ty halale’ o varan’ Añahareo, ty hilala’e naho ty hihi’e! Tsy hay karaofeñe o zaka’eo, naho tsy lefe tinoñeñe o lia’eo.
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who became his counselor?
Ia ty nahafohiñe ty faharofoana’ i Talè? Ia ty nimpanoro aze?
35 Or who first gave to him, and it will be repaid to him?
Ia ty nanolotse ama’e aolo, hañavaha’e?
