Romans 11
1 I say then, Did God cast off his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Lanwani i, n ji buali ne: “U Tienu ji luni o buolu yo oo? yeni ka! Kelima n mo tie Isirayeli yua, ki tie Abalahama puolŋuanu, ki tie Benjamini cuuli nni yua.
2 God did not cast off his people which he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel:
U Tienu ki ñɔli ya buolu ke o den tuodi ki bani hali ke li fagi. I ki bani i diani ń maadi Eli po ya maama aa? wan den fabni maama U tienu kani Isayeli yaaba po, ki tua:
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
“O Diedo, bi kpaá a sawalpuaba, ki tudi ki luni a jaanbinbinda; mini baba n sieni ke bi go lingi ke ban biani n miali.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
Ama U Tienu guani ki jiini o be i? O jiini ki yedi: «N guuni n yuli po niba tuda lele, yaaba n dá ki gbaani ki pugi o bulo Baali.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Li go tie yeni i, mɔlane, nitianba sieni, ban gandi yaaba U Tienu ŋalbalgo po.
6 But if it is by grace, it is no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace.
Ama li ya tie li ŋanbli po, lani naa ŋua a tuona; lanyaaka li nan ji ki tie ŋanbli yeni i mɔni. Li ya tie ke li ŋua tuana mo, li ji ki tie ŋanbli, lanyaaka li tuona ji ki tie tuona.
7 What then? That which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened:
Lankuli wangi be i? Isirayeli yaaba ki baa ban den lingi yaali, ama U Tienu ŋanbli po, ban gandi yaaba baa la. yaaba n sieni ki tie pajuaga danba wani ki baa pu.
8 according as it is written, God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this very day.
Nani i diani ń yedi maama: “U Tienu teni ba mi yanpiiyema, bi pia i nuni ki naa nua, ki pia a tuba ki naa gbia, hali yeni mɔla kuli.
9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, And a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
Dafiidi moko yedi: “Bi jedikaanu ń tua bi po diagu, ki tua taalu bii tingbali, ban pa ki baa bi tuonbiadi po sugli.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, And bow thou down their back always.
Bi nuni ń bɔndi, ban ji da nua, bi ciamu ń pɔli, ki buani bi jumu, ban ya tiibi yognu kuli.
11 I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? God forbid: but by their fall salvation [is come] unto the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
N ji buali da: “Bi tuudma ji tua bi tingbali yo oo? yeni ka! Ama bi tingbali cedi ke bi nilanba baa mi faabma, ke li tua bi po ponponli, ki fiini bi pala.
12 Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
To, bi tingbali ya tua ŋanduna po ŋalmani, ke bi pɔdma mo cedi ke bi nilanba baa ŋalmani, bikuli ya lebdi bi pala, lanya ŋalmani ka baa cie ee?
13 But I speak to you that are Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle of Gentiles, I glorify my ministry;
N maadi yinba i, bi nilanba: Min tie tondo bi nilanba siiga n ne, n jaandi U Tienu n tuonli po.
14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousy [them that are] my flesh, and may save some of them.
Li ya bi ba tuo, min fiini n naataani pala, ki kuani ba li ponponli, ki faabi tianba.
15 For if the casting away of them [is] the reconciling of the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life from the dead?
Kelima U Tienu ya luni o buolu, ke ŋanduna guani ki mangi yeni o, bi ya guani ki ŋɔdi bi Diedo, li kan tua miali ka bi tinkpiba siiga aa?
16 And if the firstfruit is holy, so is the lump: and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
Bi yedi ke a bonkpiala ya ŋani, ki dagdi U Tienu po, li tie ke ku kpaangu kuli mo ŋani, ki dagdi U Tienu po i. A jiina ya kpaa, ki dagdi U Tienu po, li tie ke a bena mo dagdi ki ŋani U Tienu po i.
17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive, wast grafted in among them, and didst become partaker with them of the root of the fatness of the olive tree;
Bi ya cua ki ñani bentiana, ke fini tilialbu benu, ke a tugni, ki baadi bu tiŋuukaabu sinma li beni kaanu,
18 glory not over the branches: but if thou gloriest, it is not thou that bearest the root, but the root thee.
ŋan da kpiadi a yuli i beni yeni yeli po ka. A ya kpiagdi a yuli, ŋan ya bani ke fini ka tugi a jiina; ama a jiina n tugi a.
19 Thou wilt say then, Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
A ba maadi: “Bi cua ki ñani i beni, ke n mo fidi ki tugni.
20 Well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by thy faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
Li tie mɔmɔni ke ya beni n ki pia dandanli i, ke bi cua ki ñani; ke fini a tuugi kelima a dandanli po i. ŋan ji da pia japaadi, ama ŋan ya jie.
21 for if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare thee.
Kelima U Tienu ya ki tuo ki ŋa bu tiiŋuukaabu beni, o kan di sugli fini bu tilialbu beni mo ya po.
22 Behold then the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell, severity; but toward thee, God’s goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
Lanwani i, ŋan cɔlni U Tienu ŋanbli, yeni o maba. A maba yaaba n tudi ki yie o maama po; ŋanbli fini yua n tiegi po. lanyaaka o ba cua ki ñani o mo.
23 And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
Bani yaaba n tudi mo, bi ya ki tundi ki ye mi tudma nni, ki lebdi bi pala, o ba guani ki tugni bi mo, kelima U Tienu paaciamu po, o ba fidi ki guani ki tugni bi mo.
24 For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural [branches], be grafted into their own olive tree?
Fini yua den ñani bu tiilialbu po, ke bi tugni a yeni bu tiiŋuukaabu, ke a naa tuodi ki tie bu, bani yaaba n den ñani bu tiiŋuukaabu kani n ji kan guani ki tugni yeni bi tiibuolu uu?
25 For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in;
Kelima, n naataani, n ki bua ke ya yaalidgu bonli ne duagi yi, ki ba cedi yin yini i yula yanfodanba; Li tie ke Isirayeli yaaba bi tianba juagi bi pala, ki baá mi tudma nni, hali ke bi nilanba kuli baa ki kua, ki baa U Tienu ŋanbli.
26 and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer; He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Lani n cedi ke Isirayeli yaaba kuli ba baa mi faabma nani lan diani maama: “O candaano ba ña Siyɔn, ki cua ki ñani ti tuonbiadi Isirayeli yaaba pali nni.”
27 And this is my covenant unto them, When I shall take away their sins.
N ya piini bi tuonbiadi, lani n ba tua n ñɔnianu yeni ba.
28 As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sake.
Yaali n nua o laabaalŋamo po, bi tie yibalinba kelima yinba bi nilanba ya po; ama yaali n nua ban gandi yaaba li ŋanbli po, bi tie U Tienu ń bua yaaba kelima bi yaajanba po.
29 For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of.
Kelima U Tienu yiinu yeni o paabu ki pia lebdima.
30 For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
Nani yognubá, i den ki tuo ki ŋua U Tienu ń bili ya sanu, ke bi tudma po, ke i baa U Tienu niñingbadma yeni,
31 even so have these also now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy.
Bi mo tudi U Tienu sanu, ke yin baa ya niñingbadma po yeni ya po, bi mo ń baa mi niñingbadma
Kelima U Tienu luoni bi niba kuli mi ti tuonbiadi nni, ke wan fidi ki gbadi bikuli niñima. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
kesaa, U Tienu ŋalmani yeni o yanfuoma yeni o banma yabi ki go ñua! ŋma ba fidi ki kpaagi o yanjaga? ŋma ba fidi ki bandi o sanbila?
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
ŋma kpaagi ki bandi U Tienu maalma? bii ŋma n ba fidi ki tua o ceglika?
35 or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
ŋma kpia ki teni U Tienu bonli ki ji guu ke wan ŋmiani o?
