Romans 11
1 Therefore, I say: Has God driven away his people? Let it not be so! For I, too, am an Israelite of the offspring of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.
Bhai ngunabhuya, bhuli a Nnungu bhashikwaakananga bhandunji bhabho? Nng'oo! Pabha nkali nne namwene na Ng'ishilaeli, jwa lukolo lwa a Bhulaimu, kabhila ja a Bhenjamini.
2 God has not driven away his people, whom he foreknew. And do you not know what Scripture says in Elijah, how he calls upon God against Israel?
A Nnungu bhangaakananga bhandunji bhabho bhubhaagulenje kuumila bhukala. Eu nkakugamanyanga Majandiko shigabheleketa ga a Eliya? Shibhashite kwaalugulanga Ishilaeli kwa a Nnungu kuti,
3 “Lord, they have slain your Prophets. They have overturned your altars. And I alone remain, and they are seeking my life.”
“Mmakulungwa, bhashikwaabhulaganga ashinkulondola bhenu nibhomola itala yenu. Nepeshe nne jikape, numbe bhapinga mulaganga!”
4 But what is the Divine response to him? “I have retained for myself seven thousand men, who have not bent their knees before Baal.”
Bhuli a Nnungu bhaajangwileje nndi? “Njikwilepesheya bhandunji elupu shabha bhangatindibhalilanga shanamu sha nnungu ashemwa Bhaali.”
5 Therefore, in the same way, again in this time, there is a remnant that has been saved in accord with the choice of grace.
Bhai nneyo peyo nkali agano mobha gano, bhapalinji bhalepekenje bhaagwilwenje kwa nema.
6 And if it is by grace, then it is not now by works; otherwise grace is no longer free.
Bhai ibhaga bhaagwilwenje kwa nema, nngabha bhaagwilwenje kwa itendi, na ibhaga bhaagwilwenje kwa itendi, nngabha bhaagwilwenje kwa nema.
7 What is next? What Israel was seeking, he has not obtained. But the elect have obtained it. And truly, these others have been blinded,
Igala nndi? Shindu shibhaloleyangaga Ishilaeli shila bhangashipatanga. Bhashipatilenje ni bhaagwilwenje bhala, ikabheje bhananji ninonopeywa mitima.
8 just as it was written: “God has given them a spirit of reluctance: eyes that do not perceive, and ears that do not hear, even until this very day.”
Malinga Majandiko shigalugula, “A Nnungu bhashikwaanonopeyanga mitima jabhonji, Na meyo gabhonji ganalole Na wala makutu gabhonji ganapilikane mpaka lelo.”
9 And David says: “Let their table become like a snare, and a deception, and a scandal, and a retribution for them.
Na a Daudi gubhashite, “Kalamu yabhonji ibhe lukonji lwya kwaatanjiyanga muyanyata, Na shindu sha kwiikubhala, bhagwanganje ni ukumulwa mboteko.
10 Let their eyes be obscured, so that they may not see, and so that they may bow down their backs always.”
Meyo gabhonji gatagwe lubhindu Bhanalolanje. Migongo jabhonji jipinde mobha gowe!”
11 Therefore, I say: Have they stumbled in such a way that they should fall? Let it not be so! Instead, by their offense, salvation is with the Gentiles, so that they may be a rival to them.
Bhai ngunabhuya kabhili, bhuli, Bhayaudi bhashinkwiikubhalanga nigwanganga kaje? Ng'oo! Ikabheje kwa lebha kwabhonji, ntapulo uishe ku bhandu bha ilambo ina, nkupinga ashaayene bhakolanje lupimilo.
12 Now if their offense is the riches of the world, and if their diminution is the riches of the Gentiles, how much more is their fullness?
Bhai monaga kulebha kwa Bhayaudi kushibha utajili kushilambolyo na kulebha kwabhonji kushibha utajili ku bhandu bhananji bha ilambo ina, bhuli aki jabhonji nngabha shijibhe utajili gwa punda?
13 For I say to you Gentiles: Certainly, as long as I am an Apostle to the Gentiles, I will honor my ministry,
Bhai, ngunabheleketa na mmanganyanji nninginji nngabha Bhayaudi. Pabha nne ntume jwa bhandunji bha ilambo ina, numbe nne ngunakwiiniya ga liengo lyangu,
14 in such a way that I might provoke to rivalry those who are my own flesh, and so that I may save some of them.
nkupinga naatendanje ashaalongo ajangu bhammonelanje lupimililo mmanganyanji naatapulanje bhananji munkumbi gwabhonji.
15 For if their loss is for the reconciliation of the world, what could their return be for, except life out of death?
Bhai monaga kukanwa kwabhonji kushilundanya bhandunji na a Nnungu, bhuli kuposhelwa kwabhonji shikubhe nndi, ikabhe gumi ku bhawilenje?
16 For if the first-fruit has been sanctified, so also has the whole. And if the root is holy, so also are the branches.
Monaga nnimbu ubhaga gwa ukonjelo, bhai, gakagulago shigabhe ga ukonjelo na litepo libhaga lya ukonjelo na nyambi shiibhe nneyo peyo.
17 And if some of the branches are broken, and if you, being a wild olive branch, are grafted on to them, and you become a partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree,
Nyambi ina ya misheituni ishelilwe, nipandishila nyambi ya nsheituni nng'itu. Bhai, mmanganyanji nninginji nngabha Bhayaudi, ni lujambi lwa nsheituni nng'itu. Nnaino nnakwiikonjanga utwenje gwa litepo lya nsheituni gwa nshitalu.
18 do not glorify yourself above the branches. For though you glory, you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
Nnainyegayanje nyambi ishelilwe ila, eu monaga nkuipuna, bhai nkumbushile kuti nngabha mmwe nkujigala litepo, ikabheje litepo ni likunnjigala mmwe.
19 Therefore, you would say: The branches were broken off, so that I might be grafted on.
Pana shimmelekete kuti, “Nyambi ila yashinkushelwa nkupinga mbandishilwe nne.”
20 Well enough. They were broken off because of unbelief. But you stand on faith. So do not choose to savor what is exalted, but instead be afraid.
Elo! Yashinkushelwa kwa ligongo lya ungakulupalila, ikabheje mmwe nshipandishilwa kwa ligongo lya ngulupai yenu, nnailumbilile ikabhe nnjogope.
21 For if God has not spared the natural branches, perhaps also he might not spare you.
Pabha monaga a Nnungu bhangaaleshelelanga Bhayaudi bhalinginji malinga nyambi iyene, bhuli punkuganishiya shibhammonele shiya mmwe?
22 So then, notice the goodness and the severity of God. Certainly, toward those who have fallen, there is severity; but toward you, there is the goodness of God, if you remain in goodness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off.
Nnole uguja gwa a Nnungu na shibhakuti kalipa kwa bhaagwanganga, ikabheje bhanguja kwenu mmwe, monaga shinnonjeye muuguja gwabho. Bhai ikabhe nneyo, numbe mmwe shinshelwe.
23 Moreover, if they do not remain in unbelief, they will be grafted on. For God is able to graft them on again.
Nabhalabhonji Bhayaudi bhalekangaga ungakulupalila gwabhonji, shibhapandishilwanje kabhili. Pabha a Nnungu bhanakombola kwapandishilanga kabhili.
24 So if you have been cut off from the wild olive tree, which is natural to you, and, contrary to nature, you are grafted on to the good olive tree, how much more shall those who are the natural branches be grafted on to their own olive tree?
Monaga mmanganyanji mwashinkushelwanga kopoka munsheituni nng'itu, gumpandishilwenje munsheituni gwa nshitalu, bhai pangali ukomu ashaayenenji bhashelilwenje, nipandishilwa kabhili munkongo gwabhonji.
25 For I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery (lest you seem wise only to yourselves) that a certain blindness has occurred in Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has arrived.
Ashaalongo ajangu, nne ngunapinga nshimanyanje ashino shinjubhi shino, nkupinga nnaibhonanje kuti nshikolanga nngomo. Kunonopa kwa mitima ja Ishilaeli pukwaaliji nngabha kwa lonjeya, mpaka bhandunji bha ilambo ina pushibhaamanyanje a Nnungu.
26 And in this way, all of Israel may be saved, just as it was written: “From Zion shall arrive he who delivers, and he shall turn impiety away from Jacob.
Penepo Ishilaeli bhowe shibhatapulwanje, malinga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo shigataya kuti, “Nkugombola shaishe kopoka ku Shayuni, Shaalushoye lubheleko lwa a Yakobho muilebho yabho.
27 And this will be my covenant for them, when I will take away their sins.”
Gegano ni malagano gangu na bhene bhanganyabho pushinaaleshelelanje yambi yabhonji.”
28 Certainly, according to the Gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But according to the election, they are most beloved for the sake of the fathers.
Bhai kwa ligongo lya Ngani ja Mmbone bhashibhanganga bhamagongo ajenunji, ikabheje ga agulwa kwabhonji bhaapingwanga na a Nnungu kwa ligongo lya asha nakulu bhabhonji bha bhukala.
29 For the gifts and the call of God are without regret.
Pabha a Nnungu bhakatendebhuka kwa upo yabho wala nshemo gwabho.
30 And just as you also, in times past, did not believe in God, but now you have obtained mercy because of their unbelief,
Pabha malinga mmanganyanji bhukala shumwaaleshilenje a Nnungu, ikabheje nnaino bhashikummonelanga shiya kwa ligongo lya lebha kwa Bhaishilaeli.
31 so also have these now not believed, for your mercy, so that they might obtain mercy also.
Nneyo peyo na Bhaishilaeli bhashilebhanga nkupinga kubhonelwa shiya kwenunji, na bhalabhonji bhabhonelwanje shiya.
Pabha a Nnungu bhashikwaatabhanga bhandu bhowe muilebho yabhonji, nkupinga bhaabhonelanje shiya bhowe. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Oh, the depths of the richness of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable are his ways!
Nnole, shiushite punda upalume gwa lunda na lumanyio lwa a Nnungu! Ukumu yabho jwakwa jwa kombola kwiimanya, wala mipango jabho jwakwa akujimanya!
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been his counselor?
Pabha gani aimanyi ng'aniyo ya Bhakulungwa? Eu gani abhapele lunda?
35 Or who first gave to him, so that repayment would be owed?
Eu gani shakombole kwaapa shindu bhenebho, Nkupinga abhujishiywe kabhili shenesho?
