Romans 1

1 Paul, bondman of Jesus Christ, [a] called apostle, separated to God's glad tidings,

Pauro, muranda waJesu Kristu, wakadanwa kuva muapositori, atsaurirwa evhangeri yaMwari,

2 (which he had before promised by his prophets in holy writings, )

(yaakagara avimbisa nevaporofita vake mumagwaro matsvene),

3 concerning his Son (come of David's seed according to flesh,

maererano neMwanakomana wake, wakabva kumbeu yaDhavhidhi zvichienderana nenyama,

4 marked out Son of God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by resurrection of [the] dead) Jesus Christ our Lord;

wakatemerwa kuva Mwanakomana waMwari nesimba, maererano neMweya weutsvene, nekumuka kwevakafa, ndiye Jesu Kristu Ishe wedu;

5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship in behalf of his name, for obedience of faith among all the nations,

watakagamuchira naye nyasha nevuapositori kuti kuve kuteerera kwerutendo pakati pevahedheni vese, nekuda kwezita rake,

6 among whom are ye also [the] called of Jesus Christ:

vamuri pakati pavo nemwi, vakadanwa vaJesu Kristu;

7 to all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and [our] Lord Jesus Christ.

kune vese vari muRoma, vadikanwi vaMwari, vakadanwa kuva vatsvene: Nyasha kwamuri nerugare rwunobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu naIshe Jesu Kristu.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole world.

Kutangawo ndinovonga Mwari wangu nemuna Jesu Kristu pamusoro penyu mese, kuti rutendo rwenyu rwunoparidzirwa panyika yese.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the glad tidings of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,

Nokuti Mwari chapupu changu, wandinoshumira pamweya wangu muevhangeri yeMwanakomana wake, kuti handiregi kukurangarirai,

10 always beseeching at my prayers, if any way now at least I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.

panguva dzese muminyengetero yangu ndinokumbira, kuti kana zvichigoneka nechido chaMwari, ndibudirire kuuya kwamuri pakuguma.

11 For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to establish you;

Nokuti ndinoshuva kukuonai, kuti ndikupei chimwe chipo chemweya, kuti musimbiswe,

12 that is, to have mutual comfort among you, each by the faith [which is] in the other, both yours and mine.

ndiko kuti, ndinyaradzwe pamwe pakati penyu, nerutendo rweumwe neumwe, zvese rwenyu nerwangu.

13 But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that I often proposed to come to you, (and have been hindered until the present time, ) that I might have some fruit among you too, even as among the other nations also.

Zvino handidi kuti musaziva, hama, kuti kazhinji ndaizvipira kuuya kwamuri (ndokudziviswa kusvikira ikozvino), kuti ndive nechimwe chibereko pakati penyuwo, sepakati pevamwe vahedheniwo.

14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to wise and unintelligent:

Ndine ngava kuVaGiriki nekuvatorwawo, kuvakachenjera nekune vasina kuchenjerawo;

15 so, as far as depends on me, am I ready to announce the glad tidings to you also who [are] in Rome.

saizvozvo sezviri mandiri ndakagadzirira kuparidza evhangeri kwamuriwo imwi muri paRoma.

16 For I am not ashamed of the glad tidings; for it is God's power to salvation, to every one that believes, both to Jew first and to Greek:

Nokuti handinyadzisvi neevhangeri yaKristu; nokuti isimba raMwari rinoendesa kuruponeso kune umwe neumwe anotenda, kumuJudha pakutanga, nekumuGirikiwo.

17 for righteousness of God is revealed therein, on the principle of faith, to faith: according as it is written, But the just shall live by faith.

Nokuti kururama kwaMwari kunoratidzwa mairi kubva parutendo kusvika parutendo; sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Asi wakarurama achararama nerutendo.

18 For there is revealed wrath of God from heaven upon all impiety, and unrighteousness of men holding the truth in unrighteousness.

Nokuti kutsamwa kwaMwari kunoratidzwa kubva kudenga pamusoro pekusada Mwari kwese nekusarurama kwevanhu vanodzivisa chokwadi nekusarurama;

19 Because what is known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested [it] to them,

nokuti izvo zvinozikanwa pamusoro paMwari zviri pachena pakati pavo; nokuti Mwari wakazviratidza kwavari.

20 — for from [the] world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, — so as to render them inexcusable. (aïdios g126)

Nokuti zvisingaonekwi zvake, kubva pakusikwa kwenyika, zvinonzwisisika pazvinhu zvakaitwa, zvinooneswa pachena, simba rake rekusingaperi pamwe neuMwari hwake, kuti vasava nemanzvengero; (aïdios g126)

21 Because, knowing God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but fell into folly in their thoughts, and their heart without understanding was darkened:

nokuti vakati vaziva Mwari, havana kumurumbidza saMwari kana kuvonga, asi vakava vasina maturo mumirangariro yavo, nemoyo wavo usinganzwisisi wakaitwa mutema.

22 professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

Vachizvipupurira kuva vakachenjera vakava mapenzi,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into [the] likeness of an image of corruptible man and of birds and quadrupeds and reptiles.

uye vakashandurira kubwinya kwaMwari asingafi kumufananidzo wechifananidzo chemunhu anofa nekushiri nekuzvine makumbo mana nekuzvinokambaira.

24 Wherefore God gave them up [also] in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies between themselves:

Naizvozvowo Mwari wakavapa kutsvina kubudikidza nekuchiva kwemoyo yavo, kuti vazvidze miviri yavo pakati pavo;

25 who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and honoured and served the creature more than him who had created [it], who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

avo vakashandurira chokwadi chaMwari kunhema, uye vakanamata nekushumira chisikwa kupfuura Musiki, iye anorumbidzwa nekusingaperi. Ameni. (aiōn g165)

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile lusts; for both their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature;

Nekuda kweizvozvo Mwari wakavapa kukuchiva kunonyadzisa; nokuti kunyange vanhukadzi vavo vakashandura basa rechisikirwo rive rinopesana nechisikirwo;

27 and in like manner the males also, leaving the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust towards one another; males with males working shame, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was fit.

uye saizvozvowo vanhurume vakasiya basa rechisikirwo kumunhukadzi, vakapiswa nekuchivana kwavo, vanhurume nevanhurume vachiita zvinonyadzisa vachigamuchira mukati mavo muripo wakafanira kurasika kwavo.

28 And according as they did not think good to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind to practise unseemly things;

Uye zvavakaona zvisina kufanira kugara naMwari muruzivo, Mwari wakavapa kumurangariro wakaraswa, kuti vaite zvinhu zvisakafanira;

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,

vakazadzwa nekusarurama kwese, ufeve, kuipa, ruchiva, unhubu, kuzara negodo, umhondi, gakava, kunyengera, utsotsi, vanoita makuhwa,

30 back-biters, hateful to God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

vacheri, vavengi vaMwari, vazvidzi, vadadi, vanozvikudza, vavambi vezvakaipa, vasingateereri vabereki,

31 void of understanding, faithless, without natural affection, unmerciful;

vasinganzwisisi, vaputsi vesungano, vane utsinye, vasingaregereri, vasina tsitsi,

32 who knowing the righteous judgment of God, that they who do such things are worthy of death, not only practise them, but have fellow delight in those who do [them].

avo vanoti vachiziva murairo wekururama kwaMwari, kuti vanoita zvakadai vakafanirwa nerufu, havaiti izvo chete, asiwo vanotenderana nevanozviita.
