Romans 15

1 Now we the strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the frail, and not to please ourselves.

Le fa re dumela gore ga go dire pha rologanyo epe mo Moreneng fa re dira dilo tse, le fa go ntse jalo ga re na go tswelela pele re dira re iitumedisa; gonne re tshwanetse go rwala “mokgweleo” wa go akanyetsa dipelaelo le dipoifo tsa ba bangwe, tsa ba ba bonang gore dilo tse ga di a siama. A re itumediseng yo mongwe, e seng rona, re bo re dire se se tshwanetseng tshiamo ya gagwe gore re mo age mo Moreneng.

2 Let each of us please his neighbor for what is good toward edification.

3 For Christ also did not please himself, but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell upon me.

Keresete ga a ise a ke a iitumedise. Jaaka Mopesalema a rile, “O tletse one maikaelelo a go bogisiwa ke matlhapa a ba ba kgatlhanong le Morena.”

4 For as many things as were written previously were written for our learning, so that through perseverance and through the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

Dilo tse, tse di neng di kwadilwe mo Dikwalong bogologolo di tshwanetse go re ruta bopelo-telele le go re kgothatsa, gore re tle re tlhome mogopolo kwa pele re solofetse nako ya fa Modimo o tlaa bong o fenya sebe le loso.

5 Now may the God of perseverance and of encouragement grant you to think the same way among each other, in accord with Christ Jesus,

A Modimo o o nayang bopelotelele, boiketlo, le kgothatso o lo thuse gore lo tshedisanye ka kutlwano, mongwe le mongwe mo go yo mongwe ka mokgwa wa ga Keresete.

6 so that unanimously, with one mouth, ye may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Ke gone rotlhe re ka galaletsang Morena mmogo ka lentswe le le lengwe fela, re galaletsa Modimo, Rara wa Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete.

7 Therefore receive ye each other, just as Christ also received you for the glory of God.

Jalo he, amogelanang ka boitumelo mo phuthegong, fela jaaka Keresete a lo amogetse ka boitumelo; ke gone Modimo o tlaa galalediwang.

8 And I say, Christ Jesus became a helper of men of circumcision, for the sake of God's truth (in order to confirm the promises of the fathers),

Gakologelwang gore Jesu Keresete o tletse go supa gore Modimo o boammaaruri mo ditsholofe-tsong tsa one le go thusa Bajuta.

9 and the Gentiles, for the sake of mercy, to glorify God, as it is written, Because of this I will give thanks to thee among Gentiles, and will sing to thy name.

Gape gakologe-lwang gore o tletse le gore Badichaba ba bolokwe mme ba galaletse Modimo ka ntlha ya kutlwelo botlhoko ya one mo go bone. Ke sone se Mopesalema a neng a se raya fa a kwala a re, “Ke tlaa go galaletsa mo go Badichaba, ke bo ke baka leina la gago.”

10 And again he says, Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people.

Mme o buile mo felong gongwe a re, “Itumeleng, lona Badichaba, mmogo le batho ba one Bajuta.”

11 And again, Praise ye the Lord all nations, and let all the peoples praise him.

Mme gape a re, “Galaletsang Morena, lona Badichaba, a mongwe le mongwe a mo galaletse.”

12 And again, Isaiah says, There will be the root of Jesse, and he who arises to reign over Gentiles. In him Gentiles will hope.

Le moporofiti Isaia o rile, “go tlaa nna morua-boswa mo lotsong lwa ga Jesu, mme o tlaa nna Kgosi ya Badichaba; ba tlaa solofela mo go ene a le nosi.”

13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, for ye to abound in hope in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Jalo ke a lo rapelela Badichaba gore Modimo o o lo nayang tsholofelo o tle o lo itumedise o lo tlatse ka kagiso fa lo ntse lo dumela mo go one. Ke rapela gore Modimo o lo thuse gore lo tlale tsholofelo mo go one ka nonofo ya Mowa O O Boitshepo mo go lona.

14 And I also myself am persuaded about you, my brothers, that ye yourselves are also full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.

Ke itse gore lo botlhale ebile lo molemo, bagaetsho, le gore lo itse dilo tse sentle thata mo e leng gore lo kgona go ruta bangwe ka ga tsone.

15 But I wrote more boldly to you, brothers, in part, as reminding you because of the grace that was given to me by God,

Mme fela jalo ke ntse ke na le bosena-poifo go gatelela mangwe a mabaka a, ke itse gore gotlhe mo lo go tlhokang ke yone kgakololo e, e e tswang mo go nna; gonne ka ntlha ya tshegofatso ya Modimo ke morongwa wa botlhokwa go tswa mo go Jesu Keresete go ya kwa go lona Badichaba, ke lo leretse Mafoko a a Molemo ebile ke lo ntsha jaaka setlhabelo se se lebosegang mo Modimong; gonne lo ntlafaditswe lwa ba lwa dirwa go mo itumedisa ka Mowa O O Boitshepo.

16 for me to be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, serving the good news of God like a priest, so that the offering up of the Gentiles might become acceptable, being sanctified in the Holy Spirit.

17 I have therefore a boast in Christ Jesus in things toward God.

Jalo go ntshiametse go ipelafatsa go le gonnye kaga se Keresete Jesu o se dirileng ka nna.

18 For I will not dare to speak anything of which Christ did not accomplish through me for the obedience of Gentiles, by word and work,

Ke na le poifo go bua sentle thata ka fa a dirisitseng ba bangwe ka teng, mme legale ke itse se fela; o ntirisitse go gapela Badichaba mo Modimong.

19 in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of a Spirit of God, so that for me, from Jerusalem and all around as far as Illyricum, to fully preach the good news of Christ.

Ke ba gapile ka molaetsa wa me le ka tsela e e molemo e ke neng ke itshotse mo go bone ka yone, le ka dikgakgamatso tse di dirilweng ka nna e le ditshupo tse di tswang kwa Modimong, tsotlhe fela e le ka nonofo ya Mowa O O Boitshepo. Ka yone tsela e, ke rerile mafoko a a Molemo a a tletseng a ga Keresete mo tseleng yotlhe go tsweng kwa Jerusalema go fitlha kwa Ilirikama.

20 And thus having aspired to proclaim the good news not where Christ was already named, so that I would not build upon a foundation belonging to another man,

Mme legale mo lobakeng lo lotlhe, maikaelelo a me e ntse e le go re ke fetele kwa pele, ke rere kwa leina la ga Keresete le iseng le ke le utlwale teng, go na le go rera kwa phuthego e setseng e simolotswe ke mongwe teng.

21 but, as it is written, They will see to whom it was not reported about him, and they will understand who have not heard.

Ke ntse ke setse morago leano la ga Keresete le le buiwang mo dikwalong mo Isaia a reng, “Ba ba iseng ba ke ba bo ba utlwe kaga leina la ga Keresete pele ba tlaa bona ebile ba tlaa tlhaloganya.”

22 Therefore also, I was delayed these many times coming to you.

Tota, leo ke lone lebaka le ke ntseng ke sa lo etele ka lone.

23 But now, having no more place in these regions, and having a great desire from many years to come to you,

Mme legale jaanong ke feditse tiro ya me fano, ke setse ke siametse go tla jaanong morago ga dingwaga tse tsotlhe tsa tetelo.

24 whenever I go to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you while passing through, and there to be helped on the way by you, if first I may be partly satisfied from you.

Gonne ke ikaelela go ya kwa Sepaina, mme fa ke ya teng, ke tlaa ema mo Roma; mme fa re sena go nna mmogo ka lobakanyana ke gone lo ka ntetlelelang go tswelela pele le mosepele wa me.

25 But now I am going to Jerusalem serving the sanctified.

Mme pele ga ke tla koo, ke tshwanetse go fologela kwa Jerusalema ke isa mpho kwa Bakereseteng ba teng ba Sejuta.

26 For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a certain participation for the poor of the sanctified at Jerusalem.

Gonne lo bona gore Bakeresete ba Masedonia le Akaia ba ntsheditse Bakeresete ba Jerusalema ba ba mo mathateng mpho.

27 For they were pleased. And they are debtors of them, for if the Gentiles were partakers in their spiritual things, they are obligated also to serve them in the carnal things.

Ba ne ba itumela thata go dira jaana, gonne ba ne ba ikutlwa gore ba kolota Bakeresete ba Jerusalema. Ka go reng? Gonne dikgang kaga Keresete di tsile kwa go bone di tswa kwa phuthegong e e mo Jerusalema. Mme ka ba amogetse neo e ntle e ya semowa ya Mafoko a a Molemo mo go bone, ba bona gore bonnyennyane jo le bone ba ka bo ba direlang ke go ba fa thuso ya tse di tlhokwang ke nama.

28 Having therefore completed this, and having sealed this fruit for them, I will depart by you to Spain.

E tlaa re fela ke sena go gorosa madi a, le go fetsa tiro e ya bone e e molemo, ke tlaa tla go lo bona ke le mo tseleng ya me ya go ya Sepaina.

29 And I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the good news of the Christ.

Mme ke tlhomamisa gore e tlaa re fa ke tla, ke lo tlele lesego le legolo le le tswang mo Moreneng.

30 Now I beseech you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive with me in prayers to God for me.

A lo tlaa nna barapedi mmogo le nna? Ka ntlha ya Morena Jesu Keresete, le ka ntlha ya ka fa lo nang le lorato mo go nna ka teng, lo lo lo neetsweng ke Mowa O O Boitshepo, nthapedisang thata mo tirong ya me.

31 So that I may be rescued from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may become acceptable to the sanctified,

Rapelelang gore ke sirelediwe mo Jerusalema mo go ba e seng Bakeresete. Rapelelang gape gore Bakeresete ba teng ba itumelele go amogela madi a ke a isang kwa go bone.

32 so that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and be rested with you.

Mme ke tlaa kgona go tla kwa go lona ka pelo e e itumetseng ka go rata ga Modimo, mme ke gone re tlaa ikhutsang mmogo.

33 And the God of peace is with you all. Truly.

Mme ke gone a Modimo wa rona, o o re nayang kagiso, o nne le lona lotlhe. Amen.
