Romans 1
1 Paul, a slave of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, having been set apart to the Gospel of God,
Paul, Jesu Khrih a tyihzawih, tyihzawih hamna ak khy, Khawsa Awithang leek kqawn hamna ak khy ing,
2 which He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures:
cawhkaw awithang leek taw Cakciim awh amah a tawnghakhqi hawnaak ing ak cyk ca awhkawng a taak hyt awi ceni,
3 concerning His Son, who became a physical descendant of David,
pumsa ben awhtaw David a cadil na ak awm, amah a capa akawng ce,
4 who was established to be God's powerful Son (in accordance with Spirit of holiness) by resurrection from the dead—Jesus Christ our Lord—
thihnaak awhkawng a thawhnaak ak caming, ningnih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih taw Khawsa capa ni tinawh thaawmnaak ing ciimcaihnaak Myihla ing kqawn hy.
5 through whom we have received grace and apostleship to promote obedience of faith among all ethnic nations concerning His name
Anih ak caming ang ming awh, cangnaak ak caming ak awingainaak ak khuiawh thlangkhqi ing a mi kun thainaak aham Gentel thlangkhqi khy aham am qeennaak ing ceityih bibi ve ni hu uhy.
6 (among these you also are called by Jesus Christ);
Nangmih awm Jesu Khrih thlang na awm lawt aham ak khy khqi anglakawh paa lawt uhyk ti.
7 to all the called saints who are in Rome, beloved of God: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.
Khawsa ing lungna nawh thlak ciimcaih na awm hamna ak khy Rom khaw awhkaw thlangkhqi boeih a venawh: Pa Khawsa ingkaw Bawipa Jesu Khrih a venawh kaw ngaihdingnaak ingkaw am qeennaak nangmih Rom khawawh ak awmkhqi boeih a venawh awm seh.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.
Lamma cyk awh, nangmih ak cangnaak akawng ce khawmdek pum awh amik kqawn dawngawh, nangmih boeih awh ce Jesu Khrih ak caming Khawsa venawh zeelnaak awi kqawn nyng.
9 Further, the God whom I serve with my spirit in the Gospel of His Son is my witness, how without ceasing I always remember you in my prayers,
Kak kawlung boeih ing a Capa ak awithang leek khypyi nyng saw a bi ka bi peekkung, Khawsa ing cykcahnaak ka taaknaak a hoei awh nangmih am nim hilh khqi qoe qoe nyng tice sim nyng,
10 begging that perhaps now, at last, I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
a hukhit awh nangmih a venna ka lawnaak thai aham Khawsa ing chawh am awng lawnaak aham cykcah nyng.
11 For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established
Myihla kutdo a vang a phal awm ni pek khqi nawh namik tha a awmnaak thai aham nami huh aham ngaih soeih nyng;
12 —that is, that I may be encouraged among you by our mutual faith, both yours and mine.
pynoet ingkaw pynoet cangnaak benawh thaawmnaak ni taaknaak aham ngaih nyng.
13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), in order that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the rest of the Gentiles.
Gentel thlangkhqi venawh ak thaih kak bih hawh amyihna, nangmih anglakawh awm kak bihnaak thai aham, law aham cai khing hawh hlai nyng (tuhdy anik kangkung awm khak hy) tice, koeinaakhqi, a sim kaana awm ham am ni ngaih khqi nyng.
14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to non-Greeks, both to wise and to foolish.
Greek thlangkhqi ingkaw Greek thlangkhqi am a venawh awm, thlakcyikhqi ingkaw thlakqawkhqi venawh awm sai hly kawi ta khak nyng.
15 So, for my part, I am eager to preach the Gospel to you who are in Rome as well.
Cedawngawh maw Rom khaw awh amik awm nangmih a venawh awm awithang leek kqawn aham ka ngaih khak lawt mah hy.
16 I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God for the salvation of each one who believes (for the Jew first, then the Greek);
Awithang leek awh chahnaak am ta nyng, ak cangnaak thlangkhqi boeih hulnaak a hamna Khawsa ak thaawmnaak na a awm dawngawh: lammacyk awh Judakhqi ahamna awm nawh cekcoengawh Gentelkhqi ahamna awm hy.
17 because in it God's righteousness is revealed, from faith to faith; just as it is written: “The righteous one will live by faith.”
Awithang leek awh Khawsa venawh kawng ak dyng pynoet ce dang hawh hy, “Thlakdyng taw cangnaak ing hqing kaw,” tinawh qee ce amyihna, ak cyk ca awhkawng a dytnaak dyna cangnaak ing dyngnaak ce awm hawh hy.
18 Now the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of the people who suppress the truth by unrighteousness,
Khawsa amak simkhqi ingkaw khawboe seetnaak ing thlang ak thekhanaak thlakche khqik khanawh khan benna kawng Khawsa ak kawsonaak ce dang noe noe hawh hy,
19 precisely because what may be known about God is evident among them, because God has shown it to them.
Khawsa ing ak zoei cana a sai peek khqi dawngawh, a mingmih ing Khawsa a mi sim thainaak aham zoei cahy.
20 Because His invisible attributes, namely His eternal power and divine nature, are clearly seen from the creation of the world, being understood from what has been made, so that they are inexcusable; (aïdios g126)
Ikawtih khawmdek a syn cyk ca awhkawng sim thai na amak awm Khawsa a saithainaak, kumqui thaawmnaak ingkaw a Khawsa nihnaak ce, ak ceet cana dang hawh hy, a them saikhqi awh zaaksim thainaak awm hawh nawh, thlanghqing ing oelh thainaak a lam am awm hy. (aïdios g126)
21 precisely because, knowing God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks; so their reasonings became worthless and their senseless hearts were darkened.
Khawsa ce sim hlai uhy, Khawsa amyihna am kyihcah unawh zeelnaak awi awm ap kqawn uhy, themche poeknaak ing amik kawlung be nawh, amik kawmikna hyp hy.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
Thlakcyi na ngai qu hlai uhy, thlakqaw na awm uhy,
23 and exchanged for themselves the glory of the incorruptible God for an image resembling a perishable man—even birds and quadrupeds and reptiles!
amak see thai Khawsa a boeimangnaak ce ak see thai thlanghqing, phakhqi, qamsakhqi ingkaw ak cawlhthaikhqi a myi amyihna sai uhy.
24 Therefore God also gave them up, through the cravings of their hearts for vileness, to the degrading of their bodies among themselves
Cedawngawh Khawsa ing a mimah thawlh ngaihnaak amyihna pynoet ingkaw pynoet a pum ce chahqai na a awmnaak aham nu pa thawlh sainaak amak ciimcaih benna pehy.
25 —they had exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Khawsa awitak ce a hqawng ah qapna coeng sak unawh, ak saikung anglakawh a sai them ce bawk unawh a bi ce bi pe uhy. Ak Saikung taw ang loetna kyihcah tyng ni. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason God gave them up to degrading passions; in fact even their females exchanged the natural sexual function for that against nature;
Cedawngawh Khawsa ce chahpyih hamna hyyngaihnaak ing mang taak nawh; nukhqi ingawm ami thangpyi khawsaknaak ce amak leek khawsaknaak benna hawi pyi uhy;
27 likewise also the males, abandoning the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust toward one another, males committing the disgraceful act with males, and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
cemyih lawtna pakhqi ingawm nukhqi mi ih a awmnaak ce nawn unawh, pa ingkaw pa zaak amak leekna ip a awm unawh ami thawlh phu zaawk kawi ce amimah ing zaawk uhy.
28 So precisely because they determined not to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a debased mind, to do wrong things:
Khawsa simnaak ve ikawna awm ama ming ngai dawngawh, a mimah ak kawlung seetnaak ing sai hly am kawi sainaak benna Khawsa ing a mingmih ce pek khqi hy.
29 having been filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, greed, depravity; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; gossips,
Cekkhqi ce thawlhnaak a soep a hoei, khawboe seetnaak, kamvaanaak ingkaw seetnaak ing be unawh; ytnaak, thlang himnaak, hqonaak, thailatnaak, sawhnaak ing be uhy; thlang theetnaak,
30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, braggarts, contrivers of evil things, disobedient to parents,
kawsonaak, Khawsa sawhnaak, thlang kawna am huhnaak, thinsahnaak ingkaw oek qunaak ing be uhy; themche sainaak, nu pa ak awi am ngainaak;
31 senseless, faithless, hardhearted, intransigent, unmerciful;
kaw amak awmkhqi, cangnaak amak takhqi, lungnaak amak takhqi, qeemmaal amak takhqi na awm uhy.
32 who, knowing full well God's just sentence, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do them but also approve of other practitioners.
Cemyih a them che ak saikhqi taw ami thih ham awm hy ti Khawsak awipeek ak awm ce sim hlai uhyk ti, a mimah ing a mi sai doeng am khoek nawh, thlang chang ak saikhqi ce ym pyi uhy.
