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.
Pu leino niita, pu, uNguluve avabeilile avanu vamwene? Ndeili na padebe. Ulwakhuva une nayune neili Mwisraeli, eikhivumbukhu khya Abrahamu, vakhikolo eikhya Benyamini.
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:
UNguluve savabele avanu vamwene, uvuavamanyile ukhuhuma khuvulenguleilo. Pu samlumanyile uvuveige wiita khiikhi ukhukongana nu Eliya, umuasimeleihinche khwa uNguluve savuli ya Vaisraeli?
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thy altars, and I am left alone, and they seek: my life.
“Ntwa vavabudile avasuhwa vakho, navene vanchinanginie inekhelo nchakho, une nei mwene nene niesiigile, navene vilonda uwumi wango.”
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.
Pu uwamule wa Nguluve wiita khiikhi khyulyuve? “Neileiveikhile savuli yango avaalufu saba yango avusavikhufugameela amafugamilo uBaali.”
5 Thus, then, at the present time also, there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Paninie neiyo, usiekhe ugu leino pu khuvaale uvuvasigile savu ya vuhale wa luhungu.
6 And if the election is by grace, it is no longer by works; otherwise grace is no longer grace.
Pui leino yiengave savuli ya luhungu, pusayiva mumivombele. pu apo uluhungu pusalwiva luhungu.
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,
Khyu khinu khikhi leino? eikhyu uIsrael alikhulonda, sakhivone, pu avahaliwa vakhiwene, na vaange vakhasya.
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.
Nduvuyeisimbiwe: “Unguluve avapile einumbula eiyavubungefu, amiho ukhula valekhe ukhulola, ni mbulukhutu ukhuta valekhe ukhupuleikha, pupakha eilelo eiye.”
9 And David says: Let their table become a trap, and a net, and a snare, and a recompense to them;
Vape uDaudi iita, “Nchilekhe imesa nchavo nchive nyaafu, neimitego gwa khwipeinja, nukhwitavuleila khuvene.
10 let their eyes be darkened, so that they may not see, and let them bow down their back always.
Galekhe amiho gavo gave niehisi pu valekhe ukhulola. Ukhavinamye emisana gyavo khitaduga.”
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.
Leino niita, “Puvei, kuvinche nu khugwa?” Yelekhe ukhuva ewo lusikhu. Puleino ukhulemwa khwa veene, uvupokhi vufikhe khuvapanji, ukhuta avene vavo vavone wifu.
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?
Leino einave ukhulemwa khwavo vukaviwa khilunga, nu puyiengave uvufuve waavo vukavi wavapanji, pukhigelelo khiekhi eikhilutelile puyeve khunkwila nila khwavo?
13 For I speak to you, Gentiles; inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I do honor to my ministry,
Na leino leino ninchova numwe mwie vunu va panji, neivile isuhwa khuvanu avajilunga ifinge, nikhigineihincha eimbombo ya vutangeli wango.
14 if, by any means, I may excite to jealousy those who are my flesh, and save some of them.
Pamo yanikhuvapela uwifu avaleimbeili gumo nune, pano ya tukhuvapokha vaninie.
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?
Pu eingave ukhubeliwa khwavo lweideha no lwa khilunga, ukhyupeileiliwa khwavo ya khwiva ndakhikhi pu uwumi uwakhuhuma khuvunchukha?
16 Now, if the first fruit is holy, the mass is holy also: and if the root is holy, the branches are holy also.
Einave isekhe itanchi khibana vuyileiwo khu nongeya vutine. Einave undela khibana pu amasasi nagope wuwuwa.
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,
Pu einave amasasi maninie gageidewe, uve, lisasi lya msitu lya Mzeituni, ugugwavyaliwe muvene nu pungave waleepyo paninie navene eimilela gya vukani wa Mizeituni.
18 boast not against the branches; but if you boast, boast not that you bear the root, but that the root bears you.
Ulekhe ukhwiginia mumasasi, pu unave vukhiginia saveve yuve vukhugitanga emilela, pu emilela gikhukhutanga uve.
19 You will say then: The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
Puleino ayawita, “Amaswato gagidiewe ukhuta neivuliwe mukhikolo.
20 Well; on account of unbelief they were broken off; but you stand by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear.
Eiyo lweli, savuli ya khusita ukhwideekha khwavo vagedeiwe, pu uve wa eimile ulukangafu savuli ya lweideikho lwakho. Ulekhe ukwisageila yuve pakyanya fincho pu dwaadage.
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed, lest he spare not you.
Pu ulwakhuva eingave uNguluve sagalekhe lenche amaswato amatengule, sakha khuhigile uve na yuve.
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.
Lola, leino, imbombo inonu nu vukali wa Nguluve. Khuluvafu lumo, uvukali wa inchile khuva yuta vala avagwile. Pu khuluvafu ulunge, uluhungu lwa Nguluve lukhwincha palyuve ungave yawinchiga muvunonu wa mwene. Einave ate uve nayuveayavubeiliwa.
23 And they, also, if they continue not in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
Na eingave savakhendelelage mukhusitakhwideekha kwavo, yavi valiwa khange. Ulwa khuva uNguluve alei na makha agakhuvyaleila khange.
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?
Pu ulwakhuva umwe mungave mwageidewe khunji khugugwa gwa mbutengulielo Mzeituni gwa msitu, puleino eikyavulenguleilo khileivunge Mzeituni unonu pu sayiva fiva ukhulutilila fincho ava yuta?
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.
Ulwa khuva valokolo saninogwa msite ughulumanya ukhukongana ukhu kongana nei siri eiye, ukhuta mulekhe ukhuva nu luhala mumisagiele gyienyo yumwe. Ei siri eiye khukhuta uvukafu vuhumile mu Israeli, imakha ukhunchikwilanila khwa filunga yakhiva khwinchile.
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.
Puleino ava Israeli vooni yavipokhiwa, ndu unyeisimbiwe: “Ukhuhuma khu Sayuni ikhwincha upokhi, pu ayihencha uvuvivi ukhuhuma khwa Yakobo.
27 And this is my covenant with them, when I shall take away their sins.
Na eili puyaliva ndagano pu paninie na veene useikhi uguyakhiva nihencha imbivi nchaavo.”
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:
Khuluvafu lumo ukhu kongana neilivangeili, vivipeiliwa savuli yienyo. Khuluvafu ulunge ukhukonga na vuhale wa Nguluve, vavyaliwe savuli ya vankukhu yavo.
29 for God’s gifts and calling are irrevocable.
Ulwa khuv uluhombo ni nyeilango yu Nguluve sayigevukha.
30 For as you formerly did not believe God, but now have obtained mercy through their unbelief;
Ulwakhuva pakhwanda umwe mwale vagolo va Nguluve, puleino mulyupeilile uluhungu lwa Nguluve savuli ya khugalukha kwavo.
31 so, also, these have not now believed, that through the mercy shown to you, they also may obtain mercy.
Khunjila yeiyeiyo, leino ava yuta ava vagalwikhe, pu eilyu leivonikhe khukhuta savuli ya khisa ikyu muhungukhiwe umwe mvahile ukhwambeilila uluhungu.
32 For God has delivered them all over to unbelief, that he may have mercy on them all. (eleēsē g1653)
Ulwakhuva uNguluve avadeindile avanu vooni muvugalukhi, ukhuta pwava vonele eikhisa vooni. (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!
Umunchi velile mbaha uvukavi nu luhungu nu vumanyi wa Nguluve! Savunchingakhimchi wa uvuheigi wa mwene, ni njeila ncha mwene sanchi manyikhikha!
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or, who has been his counsellor?
“Pu veini uvyakhavu manyile uvufumbwe wantwa? puveini va masago khumwene?
35 Or, who has first given to him, and received from him a recompense?
Pu veini taasi agelieli ukhupa eikhinu uNguluve pu ahombiwe khange?”
