Romans 15
1 We who are strong ought to bear with the shortcomings of the weak and not to please ourselves.
Zvino isu tine simba tinofanira kutakura utera hwevasina simba, uye tisingazvifadzi isu.
2 Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
Naizvozvo umwe neumwe wedu ngaafadze umwe wake pane zvakanaka pakumuvaka.
3 For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.”
Nokuti naKristu haana kuzvifadza iye, asi, sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Kutuka kwevakakutukai kwakawira pamusoro pangu.
4 For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.
Nokuti zvese zvakagara zvanyorwa, zvakagara zvanyorerwa kudzidza kwedu, kuti nemoyo murefu uye nekunyaradza kwemagwaro tive netariro.
5 Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,
Asi dai Mwari wemoyo murefu newenyaradzo apa kwamuri kuva nemoyo umwe pakati penyu maererano naKristu Jesu;
6 so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
kuti nemoyo umwe nemuromo umwe mukudze Mwari, ivo Baba vaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.
7 Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring glory to God.
Naizvozvo gamuchiranai, Kristu sezvaakatigamuchirawo, ruve rukudzo rwaMwari.
8 For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,
Zvino ndinoti, Jesu Kristu wakava muranda wedzingiso nekuda kwechokwadi chaMwari, kuti asimbise zvivimbiso zvemadzibaba;
9 so that the Gentiles may glorify God for His mercy. As it is written: “Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to Your name.”
uye vahedheni vakudze Mwari nekuda kwetsitsi; sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Nekuda kweizvozvi ndichakureururai pakati pevahedheni, nekuimbira zita renyu rumbidzo.
10 Again, it says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”
Uyezve anoti: Farai, vahedheni, pamwe nevanhu vake.
11 And again: “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and extol Him, all you peoples.”
Uyezve: Rumbidzai Ishe imwi vahedheni vese; mumukudzewo imwi vanhu vese.
12 And once more, Isaiah says: “The Root of Jesse will appear, One who will arise to rule over the Gentiles; in Him the Gentiles will put their hope.”
Uyezve Isaya anoti: Uchavapo mudzi waJese, neachasimukira kutonga vahedheni; vahedheni vachavimba kwaari.
13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Daiwo Mwari wetariro akuzadzai nemufaro wese uye nerugare muchitenda, kuti muwedzere patariro, nesimba reMweya Mutsvene.
14 I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, brimming with knowledge, and able to instruct one another.
Zvino ini ndomene ndinozivisisa nezvenyu, hama dzangu, kuti nemwi pachenyu muzere nekunaka, makazadzwa neruzivo rwese, munogonawo kurairana.
15 However, I have written you a bold reminder on some points, because of the grace God has given me
Asi, hama, ndinokunyorerai ndakatsunga zvikuru, neimwe nzira, ndichiita sendinokuyeuchidzai, nekuda kwenyasha dzandakapiwa naMwari,
16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
kuti ndive mushumiri waJesu Kristu kuvahedheni, ndichishumira evhangeri yaMwari, kuti chibairo chevahedheni chigamuchirike, chichiitwa chitsvene neMweya Mutsvene.
17 Therefore I exult in Christ Jesus in my service to God.
Naizvozvo ndine kuzvikudza muna Kristu Jesu pazvinhu zvemaererano naMwari;
18 I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,
nokuti handingashingi kutaura chero chinhu chaizvo Kristu zvaasina kuita kubudikidza neni, kuti vahedheni vateerereswe, neshoko uye nebasa,
19 by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.
musimba rezviratidzo nezvishamiso, musimba reMweya waMwari; naizvozvo kubva paJerusarema nekwakapoteredza kusvikira Iririkumu ndakaparidza zvakazara evhangeri yaKristu;
20 In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.
nokudaro ndakashingaira kuparidza evhangeri, kwete pakambodanwa Kristu, kuti ndirege kuvaka pamusoro penheyo dzeumwe;
21 Rather, as it is written: “Those who were not told about Him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”
asi, sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Vasina kuudzwa zvake, vachaona, nevasina kunzwa, vachanzwisisa.
22 That is why I have often been hindered from coming to you.
Nekuda kweizvozviwo ndakadzivirirwa kazhinji kuuya kwamuri;
23 But now that there are no further opportunities for me in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to visit you,
asi ikozvino zvandisisina nzvimbo pamatunhu awa, uye ndine chishuwo chikuru kwemakore mazhinji chekuuya kwamuri;
24 I hope to see you on my way to Spain. And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can equip me for my journey.
saizvozvo kana ndichaenda kuSipania, ndichauya kwamuri; nokuti ndinovimba kukuonai parwendo rwangu, nekuperekedzwa nemwi ikoko, kana ndatanga ndambogutswa muchikamu ndinemwi.
25 Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem to serve the saints there.
Asi ikozvinowo ndinoenda kuJerusarema, ndichishumira vatsvene.
26 For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.
Nokuti zvakavafadza Makedhonia neAkaya kupa chimwe chipo varombo vevatsvene vari paJerusarema.
27 They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual blessings, they are obligated to minister to them with material blessings.
Nokuti zvakavafadza, uye vane ngava navo. Nokuti kana vahedheni vakaisawo ruoko pazvinhu zvavo zvemweya, vane ngavawo rekuvashandira pazvinhu zvenyama.
28 So after I have completed this service and have safely delivered this bounty to them, I will set off to Spain by way of you.
Naizvozvo kana ndapedza chinhu ichi, ndaisa mucherechedzo chibereko ichi kwavari, ndichabva ndiende kuSipania ndichipfuura nekwenyu.
29 I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
Uye ndinoziva kuti kana ndichiuya kwamuri ndichauya pakuzara kwemaropafadzo eevhangeri yaKristu.
30 Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.
Zvino ndinokukumbirisai, hama, nekuda kwaIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, uye nekuda kwerudo rweMweya, kuti murwise pamwe neni paminyengetero kuna Mwari pamusoro pangu;
31 Pray that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there,
kuti ndisunungurwe kune vasingatendi muJudhiya, uye kuti basa rangu reJerusarema rigamuchirike kuvatsvene;
32 so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.
kuti ndiuye kwamuri nemufaro nechido chaMwari, ndivandudzwe pamwe nemwi.
33 The God of peace be with all of you. Amen.
Zvino Mwari werugare ngaave nemwi mese. Ameni.
