Romans 9
1 I am speaking the truth in Christ; I am not lying. My conscience offers testimony to me in the Holy Spirit,
| اَہَں کانْچِدْ کَلْپِتاں کَتھاں نَ کَتھَیامِ، کھْرِیشْٹَسْیَ ساکْشاتْ سَتْیَمیوَ بْرَوِیمِ پَوِتْرَسْیاتْمَنَح ساکْشانْ مَدِییَں مَنَ ایتَتْ ساکْشْیَں دَداتِ۔ |
2 because the sadness within me is great, and there is a continuous sorrow in my heart.
| مَمانْتَرَتِشَیَدُحکھَں نِرَنْتَرَں کھیدَشْچَ |
3 For I was desiring that I myself might be anathemized from Christ, for the sake of my brothers, who are my kinsmen according to the flesh.
| تَسْمادْ اَہَں سْوَجاتِییَبھْراترِناں نِمِتّاتْ سْوَیَں کھْرِیشْٹاچّھاپاکْرانْتو بھَوِتُمْ اَیچّھَمْ۔ |
4 These are the Israelites, to whom belongs adoption as sons, and the glory and the testament, and the giving and following of the law, and the promises.
| یَتَسْتَ اِسْراییلَسْیَ وَںشا اَپِ چَ دَتَّکَپُتْرَتْوَں تیجو نِیَمو وْیَوَسْتھادانَں مَنْدِرے بھَجَنَں پْرَتِجْناح پِترِپُرُشَگَنَشْچَیتیشُ سَرْوّیشُ تیشامْ اَدھِکاروسْتِ۔ |
5 Theirs are the fathers, and from them, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is over all things, blessed God, for all eternity. Amen. (aiōn g165)
| تَتْ کیوَلَں نَہِ کِنْتُ سَرْوّادھْیَکْشَح سَرْوَّدا سَچِّدانَنْدَ اِیشْوَرو یَح کھْرِیشْٹَح سوپِ شارِیرِکَسَمْبَنْدھینَ تیشاں وَںشَسَمْبھَوَح۔ (aiōn g165) |
6 But it is not that the Word of God has perished. For not all those who are Israelites are of Israel.
| اِیشْوَرَسْیَ واکْیَں وِپھَلَں جاتَمْ اِتِ نَہِ یَتْکارَنادْ اِسْراییلو وَںشے یے جاتاسْتے سَرْوّے وَسْتُتَ اِسْراییلِییا نَ بھَوَنْتِ۔ |
7 And not all sons are the offspring of Abraham: “For your offspring will be invoked in Isaac.”
| اَپَرَمْ اِبْراہِیمو وَںشے جاتا اَپِ سَرْوّے تَسْیَیوَ سَنْتانا نَ بھَوَنْتِ کِنْتُ اِسْہاکو نامْنا تَوَ وَںشو وِکھْیاتو بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ |
8 In other words, those who are the sons of God are not those who are sons of the flesh, but those who are sons of the Promise; these are considered to be the offspring.
| اَرْتھاتْ شارِیرِکَسَںسَرْگاتْ جاتاح سَنْتانا یاوَنْتَسْتاوَنْتَ ایویشْوَرَسْیَ سَنْتانا نَ بھَوَنْتِ کِنْتُ پْرَتِشْرَوَنادْ یے جایَنْتے تَایویشْوَرَوَںشو گَنْیَتے۔ |
9 For the word of promise is this: “I will return at the proper time. And there shall be a son for Sarah.”
| یَتَسْتَتْپْرَتِشْرُتے رْواکْیَمیتَتْ، ایتادرِشے سَمَیے ہَں پُنَراگَمِشْیامِ تَتْپُورْوَّں سارایاح پُتْرَ ایکو جَنِشْیَتے۔ |
10 And she was not alone. For Rebecca also, having conceived by Isaac our father, from one act,
| اَپَرَمَپِ وَدامِ سْوَمَنوبھِلاشَتَ اِیشْوَرینَ یَنِّرُوپِتَں تَتْ کَرْمَّتو نَہِ کِنْتْواہْوَیِتُ رْجاتَمیتَدْ یَتھا سِدّھیَتِ |
11 when the children had not yet been born, and had not yet done anything good or bad (such that the purpose of God might be based on their choice),
| تَدَرْتھَں رِبْکانامِکَیا یوشِتا جَنَیکَسْمادْ اَرْتھادْ اَسْماکَمْ اِسْہاکَح پُورْوَّپُرُشادْ گَرْبھے دھرِتے تَسْیاح سَنْتانَیوح پْرَسَواتْ پُورْوَّں کِنْچَ تَیوح شُبھاشُبھَکَرْمَّنَح کَرَناتْ پُورْوَّں |
12 and not because of deeds, but because of a calling, it was said to her: “The elder shall serve the younger.”
| تاں پْرَتِیدَں واکْیَمْ اُکْتَں، جْییشْٹھَح کَنِشْٹھَں سیوِشْیَتے، |
13 So also it was written: “I have loved Jacob, but I have hated Esau.”
| یَتھا لِکھِتَمْ آسْتے، تَتھاپْییشاوِ نَ پْرِیتْوا یاکُوبِ پْرِیتَوانْ اَہَں۔ |
14 What should we say next? Is there unfairness with God? Let it not be so!
| تَرْہِ وَیَں کِں بْرُومَح؟ اِیشْوَرَح کِمْ اَنْیایَکارِی؟ تَتھا نَ بھَوَتُ۔ |
15 For to Moses he says: “I will pity whomever I pity. And I will offer mercy to whomever I will pity.”
| یَتَح سَ سْوَیَں مُوسامْ اَوَدَتْ؛ اَہَں یَسْمِنْ اَنُگْرَہَں چِکِیرْشامِ تَمیوانُگرِہْلامِ، یَنْچَ دَیِتُمْ اِچّھامِ تَمیوَ دَیے۔ |
16 Therefore, it is not based on those who choose, nor on those who excel, but on God who takes pity.
| اَتَایویچّھَتا یَتَمانینَ وا مانَوینَ تَنَّ سادھْیَتے دَیاکارِنیشْوَرینَیوَ سادھْیَتے۔ |
17 For Scripture says to the Pharaoh: “I have raised you up for this purpose, so that I may reveal my power by you, and so that my name may be announced to all the earth.”
| پھِرَونِ شاسْتْرے لِکھَتِ، اَہَں تْوَدّوارا مَتْپَراکْرَمَں دَرْشَیِتُں سَرْوَّپرِتھِوْیاں نِجَنامَ پْرَکاشَیِتُنْچَ تْواں سْتھاپِتَوانْ۔ |
18 Therefore, he takes pity on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.
| اَتَح سَ یَمْ اَنُگْرَہِیتُمْ اِچّھَتِ تَمیوانُگرِہْلاتِ، یَنْچَ نِگْرَہِیتُمْ اِچّھَتِ تَں نِگرِہْلاتِ۔ |
19 And so, you would say to me: “Then why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?”
| یَدِ وَدَسِ تَرْہِ سَ دوشَں کُتو گرِہْلاتِ؟ تَدِیییچّھایاح پْرَتِبَنْدھَکَتْوَں کَرْتَّں کَسْیَ سامَرْتھْیَں وِدْیَتے؟ |
20 O man, who are you to question God? How can the thing that has been formed say to the One who formed him: “Why have you made me this way?”
| ہے اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پْرَتِپَکْشَ مَرْتْیَ تْوَں کَح؟ ایتادرِشَں ماں کُتَح سرِشْٹَوانْ؟ اِتِ کَتھاں سرِشْٹَوَسْتُ سْرَشْٹْرے کِں کَتھَیِشْیَتِ؟ |
21 And does not the potter have the authority over the clay to make, from the same material, indeed, one vessel unto honor, yet truly another unto disgrace?
| ایکَسْمانْ مرِتْپِنْڈادْ اُتْکرِشْٹاپَکرِشْٹَو دْوِوِدھَو کَلَشَو کَرْتُّں کِں کُلالَسْیَ سامَرْتھْیَں ناسْتِ؟ |
22 What if God, wanting to reveal his wrath and to make his power known, endured, with much patience, vessels deserving wrath, fit to be destroyed,
| اِیشْوَرَح کوپَں پْرَکاشَیِتُں نِجَشَکْتِں جْناپَیِتُنْچیچّھَنْ یَدِ وِناشَسْیَ یوگْیانِ کْرودھَبھاجَنانِ پْرَتِ بَہُکالَں دِیرْگھَسَہِشْنُتامْ آشْرَیَتِ؛ |
23 so that he might reveal the wealth of his glory, within these vessels of mercy, which he has prepared unto glory?
| اَپَرَنْچَ وِبھَوَپْراپْتْیَرْتھَں پُورْوَّں نِیُکْتانْیَنُگْرَہَپاتْرانِ پْرَتِ نِجَوِبھَوَسْیَ باہُلْیَں پْرَکاشَیِتُں کیوَلَیِہُودِناں نَہِ بھِنَّدیشِنامَپِ مَدھْیادْ |
24 And so it is with those of us whom he has also called, not only from among the Jews, but even from among the Gentiles,
| اَسْمانِوَ تانْیاہْوَیَتِ تَتْرَ تَوَ کِں؟ |
25 just as he says in Hosea: “I will call those who were not my people, ‘my people,’ and she who was not beloved, ‘beloved,’ and she who had not obtained mercy, ‘one who has obtained mercy.’
| ہوشییَگْرَنْتھے یَتھا لِکھِتَمْ آسْتے، یو لوکو مَمَ ناسِیتْ تَں وَدِشْیامِ مَدِییَکَں۔ یا جاتِ رْمےپْرِیا چاسِیتْ تاں وَدِشْیامْیَہَں پْرِیاں۔ |
26 And this shall be: in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they shall be called the sons of the living God.”
| یُویَں مَدِییَلوکا نَ یَتْریتِ واکْیَمَوچْیَتَ۔ اَمَریشَسْیَ سَنْتانا اِتِ کھْیاسْیَنْتِ تَتْرَ تے۔ |
27 And Isaiah cried out on behalf of Israel: “When the number of the sons of Israel is like the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.
| اِسْراییلِییَلوکیشُ یِشایِیوپِ واچَمیتاں پْراچارَیَتْ، اِسْراییلِییَوَںشاناں یا سَںکھْیا سا تُ نِشْچِتَں۔ سَمُدْرَسِکَتاسَںکھْیاسَمانا یَدِ جایَتے۔ تَتھاپِ کیوَلَں لوکَیرَلْپَیسْتْرانَں وْرَجِشْیَتے۔ |
28 For he shall complete his word, while abbreviating it out of equity. For the Lord shall accomplish a brief word upon the earth.”
| یَتو نْیایینَ سْوَں کَرْمَّ پَریشَح سادھَیِشْیَتِ۔ دیشے سَایوَ سَںکْشیپانِّجَں کَرْمَّ کَرِشْیَتِ۔ |
29 And it is just as Isaiah predicted: “Unless the Lord of hosts had bequeathed offspring, we would have become like Sodom, and we would have been made similar to Gomorrah.”
| یِشایِیوپَرَمَپِ کَتھَیاماسَ، سَینْیادھْیَکْشَپَریشینَ چیتْ کِنْچِنّودَشِشْیَتَ۔ تَدا وَیَں سِدومیوابھَوِشْیامَ وِنِشْچِتَں۔ یَدْوا وَیَمْ اَمورایا اَگَمِشْیامَ تُلْیَتاں۔ |
30 What should we say next? That the Gentiles who did not follow justice have attained justice, even the justice that is of faith.
| تَرْہِ وَیَں کِں وَکْشْیامَح؟ اِتَرَدیشِییا لوکا اَپِ پُنْیارْتھَمْ اَیَتَمانا وِشْواسینَ پُنْیَمْ اَلَبھَنْتَ؛ |
31 Yet truly, Israel, though following the law of justice, has not arrived at the law of justice.
| کِنْتْوِسْراییلّوکا وْیَوَسْتھاپالَنینَ پُنْیارْتھَں یَتَماناسْتَنْ نالَبھَنْتَ۔ |
32 Why is this? Because they did not seek it from faith, but as if it were from works. For they stumbled over a stumbling block,
| تَسْیَ کِں کارَنَں؟ تے وِشْواسینَ نَہِ کِنْتُ وْیَوَسْتھایاح کْرِیَیا چیشْٹِتْوا تَسْمِنْ سْکھَلَنَجَنَکے پاشانے پادَسْکھَلَنَں پْراپْتاح۔ |
33 just as it was written: “Behold, I am placing a stumbling block in Zion, and a rock of scandal. But whoever believes in him shall not be confounded.”
| لِکھِتَں یادرِشَمْ آسْتے، پَشْیَ پادَسْکھَلارْتھَں ہِ سِییونِ پْرَسْتَرَنْتَتھا۔ بادھاکارَنْچَ پاشانَں پَرِسْتھاپِتَوانَہَمْ۔ وِشْوَسِشْیَتِ یَسْتَتْرَ سَ جَنو نَ تْرَپِشْیَتے۔ |
