Romans 10
1 Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is for their salvation.
Hama, chishuwo chemoyo wangu nemukumbiro kuna Mwari pamusoro paIsraeri ndiko kuti vaponeswe.
2 For I testify about them that they are zealous for God, but not on the basis of knowledge.
Nokuti ndinovapupurira kuti vanoshingairira Mwari, asi kwete paruzivo;
3 Because they were ignorant of God’s righteousness and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.
nokuti vasingazivi kururama kwaMwari, uye vachitsvaka kumisa kururama kwavo pachavo, vakasazviisa pasi pekururama kwaMwari.
4 For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes.
Nokuti Kristu mugumo wemurairo mukururama kuna ani nani anotenda.
5 For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them.”
Nokuti Mozisi anonyora kururama kuri kwemurairo, kuti munhu anoita zvinhu izvi achararama nazvo.
6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)
Asi kururama kunobva parutendo kunotaura sezvizvi: Usati mumoyo mako: Ndiani achakwira kudenga? Ndiko kuti kuburusa Kristu;
7 or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).” (Abyssos g12)
kana kuti: Ndiani achaburukira mukudzika? Ndiko kuti kukwidza Kristu kubva kuvakafa. (Abyssos g12)
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:
Asi kunoti kudini? Shoko riri pedo newe, mumuromo mako nemumoyo mako; iri ishoko rerutendo ratinoparidza;
9 that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
kuti kana iwe ukabvuma nemuromo wako Ishe Jesu, uye ukatenda mumoyo mako kuti Mwari wakamumutsa kubva kuvakafa, uchaponeswa;
10 For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.
nokuti nemoyo umwe anotenda mukururama, uye nemuromo anobvuma mukuponeswa.
11 It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
Nokuti rugwaro rwunoti: Ani nani anotenda kwaari haangazonyadziswi.
12 For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: The same Lord is Lord of all, and gives richly to all who call on Him,
Nokuti hapana musiyano pakati pemuJudha nemuGiriki; nokuti Ishe ndeumwe wevese, wakafuma kune vese vanodana kwaari.
13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Nokuti wese ani nani achadana kuzita raIshe achaponeswa.
14 How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach?
Zvino vachadana sei wavasina kutenda kwaari? Uye vachatenda sei wavasina kunzwa nezvake? Uye vachanzwa sei vasina anoparidza?
15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
Zvino vachaparidza sei kana vasina kutumwa? Sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Dzakanaka sei tsoka dzevanoparidza evhangeri yerugare, dzevanoparidza evhangeri yezvakanaka?
16 But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”
Asi vese havana kuteerera evhangeri. Nokuti Isaya anoti: Ishe, ndiani wakatenda zvatakasuma?
17 Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
Naizvozvo rutendo rwunobva mukunzwa, nekunzwa neshoko raMwari.
18 But I ask, did they not hear? Indeed they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
Asi ndinoti: Havana kunzwa here? Hongu zvirokwazvo, inzwi ravo rakabuda kunyika yese, nemashoko avo kumigumo yenyika.
19 I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding.”
Asi ndinoti: Israeri haana kunzwisisa here? Pakutanga Mozisi anoti: Ini ndichakumutsirai godo nevasiri rudzi, nerudzi rusingafungi ndichakutsamwisai.
20 And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek Me; I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”
NaIsaya akashinga anotiwo: Ndakawanikwa nevasina kunditsvaka, ndakaonekwa kune vasina kundibvunza.
21 But as for Israel he says: “All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people.”
Asi kuna Israeri anoti: Zuva rese ndakatandavadza maoko angu kuvanhu vasingateereri nevanokakavara.
