Romans 11
1 I say, then, Has God rejected his people? It can not be. For I am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Ane ta oychchays: yaatin, Xoossay ba asaa aggideyye? Aggibeenna! Taani ta huu7en Isra7eele; Abrahaame sheeshi; Biniyame zare.
2 God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Know you not what the scripture says, in regard to Elijah? how he intercedes with God against Israel, saying:
Xoossay koyro doorida ba asata yeggenna. Geeshsha Maxaafan, Eliyaasi Isra7eelata Xoossaa sinthan waati mootidaakko, hintte erekketii?
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thy altars, and I am left alone, and they seek: my life.
Eliyaasi, “Godaw, entti ne nabeta wodhidosona, ne yarshsho bessaaka laallidosona. Ta tarkka attas; entti tanakka wodhanaw koyoosona” yaagis.
4 But what says the answer of God to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
Xoossay iyaw woygi zaaridee? “Ba7aale giya eeqas goynniboonna laappun mukulu asaa taw ashshas” yaagis.
5 Thus, then, at the present time also, there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Hessadakka, ha wodiyan Xoossay ba aadho keehatethan doorida guutha Isra7eeleti de7oosona.
6 And if the election is by grace, it is no longer by works; otherwise grace is no longer grace.
I entta dooriday ba aadho keehatethaanappe attin entta ooson gidenna. Dooroy ooson gidikko, iya aadho keehatethay tuma aadho keehatethi gidenna.
7 What then? Israel has not obtained that which he seeks; but the chosen have obtained it, and the rest have been hardened to this day,
Yaatin, waanidee? Isra7eeleti bantta koyabaa demmibookkona, shin Xoossay doorida guuthati demmidosona. Attidayssati bantta wozanaa muumisidosona.
8 as it is written: God has given them a spirit of stupor, eyes with which they can not see, and ears with which they can not hear.
Hessika, Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Entti bantta ayfiyaan be7onnaada bantta haythan si7onnaada, hanno gakkanaw enttaw Xoossay azalla ayyaana immis” geetettidi xaafettidayssada hanis.
9 And David says: Let their table become a trap, and a net, and a snare, and a recompense to them;
Qassi Dawitey, “Entti miya gaytay entta xiheda oykko; entta gufanthiya aafo gido; entta iitatethay entta bolla gakko.
10 let their eyes be darkened, so that they may not see, and let them bow down their back always.
Entti xeellonnaada entta ayfey goozetto; ubba wode meton entti kuunidi de7o” yaagis.
11 I say, then, Have they stumbled, in order that they may fall? It can not be. But rather, through their fall, salvation has come to the Gentiles, to excite them to jealousy.
Yaatin, Ayhudeti zaari denddonna mela kunddidonayye? Gidenna! Entta kunddethay Ayhude gidonna asay attana mela gaaso gidis. Hessika Ayhudeti entta bolla qanaatanaada oothis.
12 Now, if their fall be the riches of the world, and their loss be the riches of the Gentiles, how much more shall their full acceptance be the riches of the world?
Ayhudeta nagaray alamiyas daro anjjo ehis; qassi entta kunddethay Ayhude gidonna asaas daro anjjo gidis. Yaatin, doorettida Ayhudeti kumethi attiyaa wode anjjoy ay mela daranddeshsha!
13 For I speak to you, Gentiles; inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I do honor to my ministry,
Taani, ha77i hinttew Ayhude gidonna asaas odays. Ayhude gidonna asaas hawaare gidada ootheyssan taani daro ceeqettays.
14 if, by any means, I may excite to jealousy those who are my flesh, and save some of them.
Ta hessa oothiday taw ashon zare gidida Isra7eeleta qiiroyada enttafe guuthata ashshanaassa.
15 For, if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the reception of them be, but life from the dead?
Xoossay entta yeggida wode, ha alamey Xoossaara sigettis. Xoossay entta shiishi ekkiya wode hayqqida asi hayqoppe denddida mela gidees.
16 Now, if the first fruit is holy, the mass is holy also: and if the root is holy, the branches are holy also.
Koyro menthida baso uythay Xoossaas yarshshettidi geeshshi gidikko, muume uythayka geeshshi. Mithaas xaphoy geeshshi gidikko, tasheykka geeshshi.
17 And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, have been grafted in among them, and partake with them of the root and fatness of the olive,
Gaden tokkida shamaho tashe gidida Ayhudeti karettin, hintte bazzon dolida shamaho tashe gidida Ayhude gidonnayssati entta bessan dhanthettidi entta anjjuwaanne duretethaa shaakettideta.
18 boast not against the branches; but if you boast, boast not that you bear the root, but that the root bears you.
Hiza, hintte tasheda karetti wodhdhida Ayhudeta bolla otorttofite. Hintte otorttiyabaa gidikko, xaphoy hinttena tookkesippe attin hintte xaphuwa tookkonayssa akeekite.
19 You will say then: The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
Neeni, “He tasheti karettiday, ta entta bessan dhanthettana melassa” gaanaw dandda7aasa.
20 Well; on account of unbelief they were broken off; but you stand by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear.
Hessi tuma. Entti ammaniboonna gisho karettidosona. Neeni ammanida gisho he bessan eqqadasa. Neeni yayyanaw besseesppe attin otoranaw bessenna.
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed, lest he spare not you.
Xoossay medhon tashe gidida Ayhudetas qadhettonna ixxiko hinttewuka qadhettenna.
22 Behold, then, the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell; severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise, you also shall be cut off.
Hiza, Xoossay ay mela keehekonne ay mela yashshiyako be7a. I yashshey kiitettonayssata, qassi I keehey iya ammanidi minnidi eqqidayssatassa. Minnidi eqqonna ixxiko hintteka karettana.
23 And they, also, if they continue not in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
Ayhudeti ammanikko, kase entti de7iya bessaa simmana. Xoossay entta zaaridi, wothanaw dandda7ees.
24 For if you were cut out from an olive-tree that is wild by nature, and were grafted, against nature, into a good olive, how much more shall these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive?
Hinttena bazzon de7iya shamaho gidida Ayhude gidonnayssata qanxidi, gaden tookettida shamahuwa bolla hinttena tokkiko, medhon gade shamaho gidida Ayhudeta bantta koyro bessan zaari tokkanaw waanidi dandda7ettenee?
25 For I do not wish you, brethren, to be ignorant of this mystery―lest you be wise in your own conceit―that blindness has happened to Israel in part, till the full number of the Gentiles shall have come in.
Ta ishato, hintte hinttena eranchcho gidi ceeqettofite. Ta hinttew odiya issi xuuri de7ees. Hessika Isra7eeletappe baggay si7onna ixxiday wurssethi gakkanaw gidonnashin, attanaw de7iya Ayhude gidonna asay kumethi Xoossako yaana gakkanaassa.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved, as it is written: There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and he shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
Hessadakka, Isra7eele asay ubbay attana. Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Nuna ashsheyssi Xiyooneppe yaana; Yayqooba zerethaafe iita ubbaa diggana.
27 And this is my covenant with them, when I shall take away their sins.
Taani entta nagara atto giya wode enttara caaqqana caaqoy hayssa” geetettidi xaafettis.
28 As it respects the gospel, they are enemies of God for your sakes; but as it respects their election, they are beloved for the fathers sakes:
Ayhudeti Wonggelaa ekkonna ixxidi, hintte gisho Xoossaara morkke gididosona. Gidoshin, ha77ika entti doorettidayssata, Xoossay entta aawata gisho entta dosees.
29 for God’s gifts and calling are irrevocable.
Xoossay ba imuwaninne ba xeessan qiirottenna.
30 For as you formerly did not believe God, but now have obtained mercy through their unbelief;
Hintte Ayhude gidonnayssati kase Xoossaas kiitettibeekketa. Shin ha77i Ayhudeti kiitettonna ixxin, hintte Xoossaa maarotethaa ekkideta.
31 so, also, these have not now believed, that through the mercy shown to you, they also may obtain mercy.
Hessadakka, hintte ekkida maarotethaa Ayhudeti ekkana mela ha77i Xoossaas kiitettonna ixxidosona.
32 For God has delivered them all over to unbelief, that he may have mercy on them all. (eleēsē g1653)
Xoossay asa ubbaa ba maarotethaa bessanaw koyidi, asi ubbay kiitettonna ixxana mela oothis. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of the riches, both of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Xoossaa duretethaa, cinccatethaanne eratethaa akeekidi odanay oonee? Iya pirdday pilggettena, iya ogey erettenna.
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or, who has been his counsellor?
Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Godaa qofaa erey oonee? Iya zoranaw dandda7ey oonee?
35 Or, who has first given to him, and received from him a recompense?
Xoossaas tal77eynne tal77iya zaaridi ekkey oonee?” yaagees.
