< Romans 12 >
1 I Beseech you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that yee giue vp your bodies a liuing sacrifice, holy, acceptable vnto God, which is your reasonable seruing of God.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ndamũthaitha tondũ wa ũrĩa Ngai anamũiguĩra tha, mwĩrute mĩĩrĩ yanyu ĩtuĩke magongona marĩ muoyo, na matheru mangĩkenia Ngai, arĩ guo ũtungata ũrĩa wagĩrĩire na wa ma wa kũgoocithia Ngai.
2 And fashion not your selues like vnto this worlde, but bee yee changed by the renewing of your minde, that ye may prooue what that good, and acceptable and perfect will of God is. (aiōn )
Mũtikanahaananie ũhoro wanyu na maũndũ marĩa mekagwo nĩ andũ a thĩ ĩno; no garũrũkai na ũndũ wa kwerũhio meciiria manyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũrĩhotaga kũmenya na gwĩtĩkĩra wendi ũcio wa Ngai, o wendi ũcio wake mwega ũrĩa wa kũmũkenagia, na mũkinyanĩru kũna. (aiōn )
3 For I say through the grace that is giuen vnto me, to euery one that is among you, that no man presume to vnderstande aboue that which is meete to vnderstand, but that he vnderstande according to sobrietie, as God hath dealt to euery man the measure of faith.
Nĩ ũndũ wa wega ũrĩa ndaaheirwo nĩ Ngai-rĩ, ngwĩra o mũndũ wothe wanyu atĩrĩ: Mũndũ ndakae gwĩtua mũnene gũkĩra ũrĩa aagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩtua, no nĩ kaba mũndũ eciiragie ũhoro wake we mwene na atue itua rĩagĩrĩru, kũringana na wĩtĩkio ũrĩa Ngai amũheete.
4 For as wee haue many members in one body, and all members haue not one office,
O ta ũrĩa tũrĩ na ciĩga nyingĩ thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ ũmwe, nacio ciĩga ici ciothe itirutaga wĩra mũthemba ũmwe-rĩ,
5 So we being many are one body in Christ, and euery one, one anothers members.
no taguo o na ithuĩ, o na twatuĩka tũrĩ aingĩ, tũrĩ mwĩrĩ ũmwe thĩinĩ wa Kristũ, na o kĩĩga nĩkĩohanĩtio na iria ingĩ ciothe.
6 Seeing then that we haue gifts that are diuers, according to the grace that is giuen vnto vs, whether we haue prophecie, let vs prophecie according to the portion of faith:
Ningĩ nĩtũheetwo iheo itiganĩte, kũringana na wega ũrĩa tũheetwo. Angĩkorwo kĩheo kĩa mũndũ nĩ kũratha mohoro-rĩ, nĩahũthĩre kĩheo kĩu kũringana na ũrĩa wĩtĩkio wake ũigana.
7 Or an office, let vs waite on the office: or he that teacheth, on teaching:
Angĩkorwo nĩ gũtungata, nĩatungatage; na angĩkorwo nĩ kũrutana, nĩarutanage;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that distributeth, let him doe it with simplicitie: he that ruleth, with diligence: he that sheweth mercie, with cheerefulnesse.
ningĩ angĩkorwo nĩ kũũmĩrĩria andũ, nĩakĩũmanagĩrĩrie; na angĩkorwo nĩ wa kũrũmbũiya mabata ma andũ arĩa angĩ, nĩakĩheanage na ũtaana; angĩkorwo nĩ wa gũtongoria, nĩatongoragie na kĩyo; ningĩ ũrĩa wa kũiguanĩra tha, nĩekage ũguo akenete.
9 Let loue be without dissimulation. Abhorre that which is euill, and cleaue vnto that which is good.
Wendani wanyu nĩũkoragwo nĩ ũrĩa ũtarĩ ũhinga. Thũũragai ũndũ ũrĩa mũũru; naguo ũndũ ũrĩa mwega mũkĩũrũmagie.
10 Be affectioned to loue one another with brotherly loue. In giuing honour, goe one before another,
Endanagai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, mũrĩ na wendani ta wa ciana cia ithe ũmwe. Na mũndũ nĩatĩĩage ũrĩa ũngĩ gũkĩra we mwene.
11 Not slouthfull to do seruice: seruent in spirit seruing the Lord,
Rutagai wĩra na kĩyo, na mũreke ngoro cianyu ihĩahĩage, mũgĩtungatagĩra Mwathani.
12 Reioycing in hope, pacient in tribulation, continuing in prayer,
Ikaragai mũkenete nĩ ũndũ mũrĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro, na mũkiragĩrĩrie hĩndĩ ya mathĩĩna, na mũikarage mũkĩhooyaga hĩndĩ ciothe.
13 Distributing vnto the necessities of the Saintes: giuing your selues to hospitalitie.
Teithagiai andũ a Ngai mabataro-inĩ mao. Tũũrai mũnyiitaga andũ ũgeni.
14 Blesse them which persecute you: blesse, I say, and curse not.
Rathimagai andũ arĩa mamũnyariiraga; marathimagei na mũtikanamarume.
15 Reioyce with them that reioyce, and weepe with them that weepe.
Kenagai hamwe na arĩa marakena; na mũcakae na arĩa maracakaya.
16 Be of like affection one towardes another: be not hie minded: but make your selues equall to them of the lower sort: be not wise in your selues.
Tũũrai mũiguanĩte mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ. Tigagai gwĩtĩĩa, no mwĩtĩkagĩre kũgĩa ngwatanĩro na andũ arĩa matarĩ igweta. Tigagai kwĩona ta mũrĩ oogĩ.
17 Recompence to no man euill for euill: procure things honest in the sight of all men.
Mũtikaneke mũndũ ũũru nĩ ũndũ wa ũũru ũrĩa amwĩkĩte. Menyagĩrĩrai nĩguo mwĩkage maũndũ marĩa mangĩonwo magĩrĩire nĩ andũ othe.
18 If it bee possible, as much as in you is, haue peace with all men.
Inyuĩ-rĩ, geragiai gũikarania na mũndũ o wothe na thayũ kũngĩhoteka.
19 Dearely beloued, auenge not your selues, but giue place vnto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine: I will repay, saith the Lord.
Arata akwa, mũtikanerĩhĩrie, no tigagĩriai mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai handũ, nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Kũrĩhanĩria nĩ gwakwa; nĩ niĩ ngaarĩhanĩria,” ũguo nĩguo Mwathani ekuuga.
20 Therefore, if thine enemie hunger, feede him: if he thirst, giue him drinke: for in so doing, thou shalt heape coales of fire on his head.
Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ: “Thũ yaku ĩngĩkorwo ĩhũtiĩ-rĩ, mĩhe irio; ĩngĩkorwo nĩĩnyootiĩ-rĩ, mĩhe gĩa kũnyua. Gwĩka ũguo-rĩ, nĩkũmĩigĩrĩra makara ma mwaki mũtwe.”
21 Bee not ouercome of euill, but ouercome euill with goodnesse.
Mũtikanatoorio nĩ ũũru, no tooragiai ũũru na wega.
