Romans 9
1 I am in Christ, and what I say is true. I'm not lying! My conscience and the Holy Spirit confirm
Eyanga elyoli hwa Kilisiti. Seyangailenga, humwoyo gwene eshudila pandwemo nane hwidala Opepo Ofinjile,
2 how terribly sad I am, how I have never-ending pain in my heart,
huje huli azugumile ohogosi abhawe hwa saga humaliha muhati yemwoyo gwane.
3 for my own people, my brothers and sisters. I would rather be cursed myself, separated from Christ, if that would help them.
Nezagazilishe ane nemwene alogwe abhehwe hutali nu Kilisiti huje aholo bhane, bhala abheshikholo shane ashilile obele.
4 They are my fellow-Israelites, God's chosen people. God revealed to them his glory and made agreements with them, giving them the law, true worship, and his promises.
Abhene bha Israeli. Bhabhehwelwe huje bhana, abhe tufiwe ayangane, ezawadi eya logwe, hupute Ongolobhe, na malagano.
5 They are our forefathers—ancestors of Christ, humanly-speaking, the one who rules over everything, the eternally-blessed God. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Ebhene bhabhatagalizizye ohwo Kilisiti ahenzele enshinshi akwate obele oguu - huje oyo uo Ngolobhe wa bhoti. Wope ayeme hwaje wilawila. Amina. (aiōn g165)
6 It's not that God's promise has failed. For not every Israelite is a true Israelite,
Sehuje amalagano ga Ngolobhe hujezikunilwe afishe. Sehuje kila mutu wali Israeli nasebha Israeli bhebho.
7 and all those who are descended from Abraham are not his true children. For Scripture says, “Your descendants will be counted through Isaac,”
Sehuje bhoti bhali bhana bha Abulahamu huje bhali bhana bhakwe bhebho. Lakini, “naashilile u Isaka abhana bhaho waikwiziwa.”
8 so it's not Abraham's actual children who are counted as God's children, but only those children of God's promise who are considered his true descendants.
Hweli hwahuje, abhana abha mbele sagabhana bha Ngolobhe. Lakini abhana abhe ahadi bhahwenyezewa huje ebha ndabhana.
9 This is what the promise was: “I will return next year and Sarah will have a son.”
Elilizuu elyahadi: “Nane majira ego naye hweza, nu Sala aipata omwana.”
10 In addition Rebecca's twin sons had the same father, our forefather Isaac.
Sagalyalyeli tu, lakini pamaade u Lebeka abhapate evyanda hwa mtu omo, o Isaka udaada wetu-
11 But even before the children were born, and before they'd done anything right or wrong, (so that God's purpose could continue, proving God's calling of people is not based on human performance),
hwahuje abhana bhali nsele apapwe na alibado abhombe ijambo lyolyonti elinza au ibhibhi, huje ikusudi elya Ngolobhe alengane nachagule lyemelele, wala sehuje humiza, lakini sehwahuje yola wahukwizya.
12 she was told, “The older brother will serve the younger one.”
Lyayagwilwe huje, “Ogosi abhahutumishile ododo.”
13 As Scripture says, “I chose Jacob, but rejected Esau.”
Nashi sashili huje lyahandihwe: “U Yakobo nagene, lakini u Esau navitilwe.”
14 So what should we conclude? That God was unjust? Certainly not!
Hwa huje tiyanje yenu? Huje lihweli ilenga hwa Ngolobhe? Huje dadi
15 As he said to Moses, “I will be merciful to whoever I should show mercy, and I will have compassion on whoever I should show compassion.”
Hwa huje eyaanga ahusu oMusa, “embabhe neisajilo hula wembahusajile, na ebhabhe ne sajilo hwola wembahusajile.”
16 So it does not depend on what we want, or our own efforts, but the merciful nature of God.
Hwa huje bhasi, saga yuyo oyo wabhahwanze, wala sagayuyo oyo wanyila, lakini hwa huje yu Ngolobhe, hwa huje abhonesha asajile.
17 Scripture records God saying to Pharaoh: “I put you here for a reason—so that through you I could demonstrate my power, and so that my name could be made known throughout the earth.”
Hwa huje aamazu gayanga hwa Falao, “Hwa huje ega goti galinsini ambuinule, huje ebhoneshe aguvu zyane ashilile wewe, nahuje iitawa lyane lirumbelelwe ensi yoti.”
18 So God is merciful to those he wishes to be, and hardens the attitude of those he wants to.
Huje bhasi, Ongolobhe abhane sajilohwa wowoti wagene, nahwola wahugana, ahubheha abhe hali.
19 Now you'll argue with me and ask, “So why does he still blame us then? Who can resist the will of God?”
Nantele ubhayanje hwalini, “Yenu alola ikosa? Yo lihu wagamalile agajimbile amambo gakwe?”
20 That's no way to speak, for who are you—a mere mortal—to contradict God? Can something that is created say to its creator, “Why did you make me like this?”
Ahosi yakwe, omwanadamu, awewe nanu woyanga kinyume nu Ngolobhe? Huhweli aweze hane lyolyoti lya hahabhombelwe hayanga hwula wahabhombele, “Huje yenu wambombele eshi ane?”
21 Doesn't a potter have the right to use the same batch of clay to make both a decorative bowl and an everyday pot?
Je wabhomba sagali nehaki hwilongo elyaleganyizye evyombo humatumizi gega hweli afumilane nuvilima ulaula, ne shombo esha mwabho shibha na matumizi kila siku?
22 It's as if God, wanting to demonstrate his opposition to sin and to reveal his power, bears patiently with these “pots destined for destruction,”
Wole nashi Ongolobhe, umwene alitayali wabhonesye enkuni yakwe naabhombe amaha gakwe amanyishe, ajimbile navumilile huiye evyombo evya enkumi vyevibhehwelwe kwajili ya goje?
23 so that he might reveal the greatness of his glory through these “pots of mercy” which he has prepared in advance for glory.
Woole nkashile abhombile enga abhonesye ohwinji we utukufu wakwe hu vyombo evya rehema, avibeshele tayali kwajili yeutukufu?
24 This is who we are—people he has called, not just from among the Jews, but from among the foreigners too...
Wole kashile abhombile eli, je hulitu, hwa huje nate alitwizizye sagahuje afume Wayahudi, nantele afume nahwa bhantu bha Mataifa?
25 As God said in the book of Hosea, “Those who are not my people I will call my people, and those who are not loved I will call the ones I love,”
Nashi sayanga mwa Oseya: “Embabhakwizye abhantu bhane bhabhali saga bhantu bhane, nuula wagene natele nuula wasaga agenwe.
26 and, “It will happen that at the place where they were told, ‘You're not my people,’ there they will be called the children of the living God.”
Na abhabhe huje pala palyayagwilwe hwa bhene, 'amwesagamlibhantu bhane,' pala bhezekwiziwe 'abhana bha Ngolobhe wali mwomi.”'
27 Isaiah cries out regarding Israel: “Even if the children of Israel have become as numerous as the sands of the sea, only a small number will be saved.
O Isaya alila ashilile nebha Israeli, “Huje abhazye abhana bha Israeli engelinashi usanga gwa mbahali, ebabhe nashi bhebhasageye bhazabhe nashi bhabhahwokolewe.
28 For the Lord is going to quickly and completely finish his work of judgment on the earth.”
Hwa huje Ogosi abhahweje izuu lyakwe hwumwanya na pansi, sasele nahwa utimilifu.
29 As Isaiah previously said, “If the Lord Almighty had not left us some descendants, we would have become just like Sodom and Gomorrah.”
Nashi oIsaya sayanjile ehale, “Nashi Ogosi owemanjeshi sagatilesheye akhosi ouzao kwaajili yaliti, angatili nashi e Sodoma, nangatibhombilwe nashi e Gomora.
30 What shall we conclude, then? That even though the foreigners were not even looking to do right, they did grasp what is right, and through their trust in God did what was morally right.
Tibhayanje genu lelo? huje abhantu abhe Mataifa huje bhahali sagabhahwanza elyoli bhapente elyoli, elyoli huimani.
31 But the people of Israel, who looked to the law to make them right with God, never succeeded.
Lakini abha Israeli, bhahazile ikalata elyelyoli, sagayiifishie.
32 Why not? Because they relied on what they did rather than trusting in God. They tripped on the stumbling-block,
Yenu yalyesho? Hwa huje sagabhaiyazile huimani, bali huu matendo. Wabomele pamwanya yiwee na bhabomelee,
33 just as Scripture predicted: “Look, I'm placing in Zion a stumbling-block, a rock that will offend people. But those who trust in him won't be disappointed.”
nashi seyagwilwe enyenye, endigonizye iee elya abomelee, hu Sayuni nahuje owakose. Omwene wahuposhela hwelii sagabhakenyesewe.
