Romans 3
1 How then is the Jew better off? or what profit is there in circumcision?
Lanwani Jufinba pia be ke li teni ke be cie yaa nibuolu n sieni, ki kua ku koanciagu mo pia be fuome?
2 Much in every way: first of all because the words of God were given to them.
Lankuli pia mayuli boncianla li bonla kuli po, li bonkpiala tie ke U TIENU den piani Jufinba yo O maama.
3 And if some have no faith, will that make the faith of God without effect?
Ba ke bi siiga bi tianba ki tie dugikaaba, nani li ba teni ke U TIENU kaa tie dugikoa?
4 In no way: but let God be true, though every man is seen to be untrue; as it is said in the Writings, That your words may be seen to be true, and you may be seen to be right when you are judged.
Lani ki ye U TIENU tie moamoandaano, nisaalo kuli mo tuofaadaano nani lan diani maama: li tie tiladi ban bandi ke a tiegi a maama nni, a ya buni leni bi niba mo, a ba paadi.
5 But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?
Lanwani ti biadima ya teni ke U TIENU teginma doagidi, ti ba yedi lede? Naani U TIENU ki tiegi o pali ya beni kelima ti biadima yeni po bii? N maadi nani bi nisaaliba n nua maama.
6 In no way: because if it is so, how is God able to be the judge of all the world?
Yeni ka! U TIENU ya ki tiegi, O ba ga lede ki jia ti buudi leni ŋanduna yaaba?
7 But if, because I am untrue, God being seen to be true gets more glory, why am I to be judged as a sinner?
Li ya tie ke n faama teni ke U TIENU moamoani doagidi ki tie O kpiagidi po, be yaa po ke O ba bu ki cuo nni nani n tie tuonbiadi daano yeni?
8 Let us not do evil so that good may come (a statement which we are falsely said by some to have made), because such behaviour will have its right punishment.
Nani bi nitianba yaaba n maadi mi mabiadima ki yieni ke ti tua, be yaapo ke ti ka tiendi yaala n bia ke yaala n ŋani n yuandi ki cua? Laa niba ya cuonu tiegi.
9 What then? are we worse off than they? In no way: because we have before made it clear that Jews as well as Greeks are all under the power of sin;
Lanwani lede! ti tie nimoanba ki cie nibuotoe bii? Baa waamu. Kelima ti maadi ki doagidi ke grekinba leni Jufinba kuli tie ti tuonbiadi n die yaaba.
10 As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;
Nani lan diani maama: oba kuli ki tiegi, baa niyendo.
11 Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;
Oba ki tie yanfodaano, nilo ba ki lingi U TIENU.
12 They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:
Bi kuli yaadi, ki taani ki biidi bi yula, yua n tiendi yaala n ŋani naa ye, ba niyendo.
13 Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:
Bi niabonma kuli tie nani ya kula n yaa yeni, bi boandi bi niba leni bi landi, ya maama n ña bi noacuuna nni bia nani o duduuno loabidi yeni.
14 Whose mouth is full of curses and bitter words:
Bi ñoana gbie leni ti solindi leni ki nanga.
15 Their feet are quick in running after blood;
Bi pia ya taana n jaligi mi soawulima po,
16 Destruction and trouble are in their ways;
ban tagini naani kuli, bi ŋa dagbendi leni falabiado.
17 And of the way of peace they have no knowledge:
Baa bandi mi yanduanma sanu,
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
baa nua U TIENU leni li fangili.
19 Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:
To, ti bani ke U TIENU balimaama n yedi yaala kuli tie li balimaama n die yaaba po, ki ba teni nilo kuli ñoabu n mubini, ke bi niba kuli n tuo ke bi pia i tagili U TIENU nintuali.
20 Because by the works of the law no man is able to have righteousness in his eyes, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
Kelima nilo ba kan baa li moamoansaali U TIENU kani kelima o tiendi li balimaama n yedi yaala, kelima li balimaama n teni ke o nisaalo bandi ti tuonbiadi.
21 But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;
Ama moala, U TIENU n saa i moamoani maama ke bi nisaaliba doagidi, ke li naa ŋoadi li balimaama kubima nani li balimaama leni bi sawalipuaba kuli tieni li po siedi.
22 That is, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ, to all those who have faith; and one man is not different from another,
Bani Yaaba n tuo ki daani kuli ya po, U TIENU saagi i moamoani ke bi tiegi kelima li dandanli JESU kilisiti nni yaa po.
23 For all have done wrong and are far from the glory of God;
Mi gagidima ki ye bi niba leni bi yaba siiga, bi kuli tieni ti tuonbiadi ki poadi U TIENU kpiagidi.
24 And they may have righteousness put to their credit, freely, by his grace, through the salvation which is in Christ Jesus:
Ama kelima U TIENU ŋanbili paabu yaa po, bi nisaaliba baa li moamoansaali kelima JESU Kilisiti daafaabima yaa po.
25 Whom God has put forward as the sign of his mercy, through faith, by his blood, to make clear his righteousness when, in his pity, God let the sins of earlier times go without punishment;
U TIENU den tuodi ki bili ke wani JESU baa tua i candanbaani padili yaaba n pia li dandanli o soama po kuli yaa po. U TIENU tieni yeni ke wan fidi ki doagidi O teginma, kelima O den juuni leni bi niba n den tieni ya tuonbiadi u yogunkpelu kaa cuo ba ti po.
26 And to make clear his righteousness now, so that he might himself be upright, and give righteousness to him who has faith in Jesus.
O den bua ki doagidi O teginma moala po, ke bi niba n bandi ke o tiegi ki go tie yua n puuni li moamoansaali yua n daani Jesu kuli.
27 What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.
Lanwani o nisaalo ba kpiagi o yuli kelima be yaa po? Waa go pia li sanu. Mi laa balimaama po? A tuona po bii? A-a, ama li dandanli yaa po.
28 For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.
Kelima ti sua ke o nilo baa li moamoansaali kelima lio dandanli yaa po, ke laa tie li balimaama kubima po.
29 Or is God the God of Jews only? is he not in the same way the God of Gentiles? Yes, of Gentiles:
UTIENU tie TIENU jufinba bebe po bii? naani waa tie UTIENU bi nilamba mo ko yaa po? O tie UTIENU bi lamba moko po saa.
30 If God is one; and he will give righteousness because of faith to those who have circumcision, and through faith to those who have not circumcision.
Kelima Tienyendu bebe n ye, yua nba saa i moamoani yaaba n kua ku koanciagu po kelima bi dandanli po, ki go saa yaaba ntie jifola po moamoani kelima bi moko yaa dandanli yaa po.
31 Do we, then, through faith make the law of no effect? in no way: but we make it clear that the law is important.
Naani ti ba bolini li balimaama kelima li dandanli po bii? Kalam, ti doagidi li bali maama n pia yaa ma yuli moamoani.
