Romans 11
1 Then I say, Did God cast away his people? it could not be so. For I am indeed an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
Zvino ndinobvunza ndichiti: Mwari akarasa vanhu vake here? Kwete napaduku pose! Nokuti ini pachangu ndiri muIsraeri, chizvarwa chaAbhurahama, ndiri worudzi rwaBhenjamini.
2 God did not cast away his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says in Elijah, how he makes intercession to God against Israel?
Mwari haana kurasa vanhu vake, avo vaakaziva pakutanga. Hamuzivi here zvinorehwa noRugwaro pandima inotaura nezvaEria, kuti akakumbira sei kuna Mwari pamusoro peIsraeri achiti,
3 Lord, they have slain thy prophets, they have digged down thine altars: and I am left alone, and they are seeking my life.
“Ishe vakauraya vaprofita venyu uye vakaputsa aritari dzenyu; ndini ndoga ndasara, uye vari kuedza kundiuraya”?
4 But what says the answer to him? I have left unto myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
Uye Mwari akamupindura achiti kudiniko? “Ndakazvichengetera varume zviuru zvinomwe vasina kupfugamira Bhaari.”
5 Thus then there is even at this time a remnant left according to the election of grace:
Saizvozvowo, panguva ino varipo vakasara, vakasanangurwa nenyasha.
6 and if by grace, it is not at all by works: since in that case grace is no more grace.
Uye kana zvava zvenyasha, saka hazvichisiri zvamabasa; kana dai zvaiva zvakadaro, nyasha hadzaizova nyasha.
7 What then? Israel did not attain that which he was seeking, but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened:
Zvino tichatiiko? Zvakatsvakwa navaIsraeri nokushingaira havana kuzviwana, asi vasanangurwa ndivo vakazviwana. Vamwe vakaomeswa mwoyo,
8 as has been written, God has given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this day.
sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: “Mwari akavapa mweya wehope, meso kuti vasaona, nzeve kuitira kuti vasanzwa, kusvikira nanhasi uno.”
9 And David says, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
Uye Dhavhidhi anoti: “Tafura yavo ngaive musungo neriva, nechigumbuso uye nechinotsiva kwavari.
10 and let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always.
Meso avo ngaasvibirwe kuti vasaona; uye mukotamise misana yavo nokusingaperi.”
11 Then I say; Whether did they stumble that they may fall? it could not be so: but by their fall, salvation came to the Gentiles, in order to provoke them to jealousy.
Zvakare ndinobvunza ndichiti: Ko, vakagumbuswa vakawa zvokusazomukazve here? Kwete napaduku pose! Asi kuti nokuwa kwavo ruponeso rwakauya kune veDzimwe Ndudzi kuti Israeri ive negodo.
12 But if the fall of them was the riches of the world, and the depletion of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
Zvino kana kudarika kwavo kuchipfumisa nyika, uye kurasikirwa kwavo kuchireva pfuma kune veDzimwe Ndudzi, kuzara kwavo kuchauyisa pfuma yakakura zvakadii!
13 But I speak to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle of the Gentiles, I glorify my ministry:
Ndiri kutaura kwamuri imi veDzimwe Ndudzi. Sezvandiri mupostori weveDzimwe Ndudzi, ndinokudza ushumiri hwangu
14 if perchance I may provoke my flesh, and save some of them.
netariro yokuti zvimwe ndingamutsa godo kuvanhu vangu uye ndiponese vamwe vavo.
15 For if the casting away of them was the reconciling of the world, what will their reception be, but life from the dead?
Nokuti kana kuraswa kwavo kuri kuyananiswa kwenyika, ko, kugamuchirwa kwavo kuchagoveiko, asi upenyu kubva kurufu?
16 But if the first fruit was holy, the lump is also: if the root was holy, the branches are also.
Zvino kana chikamu chechikanyiwa chakapiwa sechibereko chokutanga chiri chitsvene, saka chikanyiwa chose chitsvene; kana mudzi uri mutsvene namatavi acho akadarowo.
17 And if certain ones of the branches were broken off, and you being a wild olive-tree are grafted in among them, and have become a partaker of the root of the fatness of the olive-tree;
Kana mamwe matavi akavhuniwa, uye imi, kunyange muri muorivhi wokudondo, wakabatanidzwa pakati pamamwe, zvino mava nomugove pamwe chete nawo kubva pamudzi womuorivhi,
18 boast not against the branches: but if you boast, you are not bearing the root, but the root you.
musazvikudza pamusoro pamatavi ayo. Kana muchizvikudza murangarire izvi: Hamuzimi makatakura mudzi, asi kuti mudzi ndiwo wakakutakurai.
19 Then you will say, The branches were broken off, that I may be grafted in.
Zvino iwe uchati, “Matavi akavhuniwa kuti ini ndibatanidzwe.”
20 Beautifully; they were broken off by unbelief, but you stand by faith, Think not high things, but fear.
Ndizvozvo. Asi akavhuniwa nokuda kwokusatenda, uye iwe unomira nokutenda kwako. Usazvikudza, asi uve nokutya.
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
Nokuti kana Mwari asina kurega matavi okutanga, haangakuregi newewo.
22 Then behold the goodness and severity of God: upon those who fell indeed, severity; but upon you the goodness of God, if you may abide in his goodness: since you too may be cut off.
Naizvozvo nyatsofunga pamusoro pounyoro nokukasharara kwaMwari; kukasharara kuna vakawa, asi unyoro kwauri, kana ukaramba uchifamba muunyoro hwake. Kana zvikasadaro newewo uchatemwa.
23 But these also, if they may not abide in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
Uye kana vakasarambirira pakusatenda, vachabatanidzwa, nokuti Mwari anogona kuvabatanidza zvakare.
24 For if you, having been cut off the olive tree which is wild by nature, and contrary to nature were grafted into the good olive tree: how much more shall these, who are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
Nokuti, kana iwe wakatemwa kubva pamuorivhi womumunda pakusikwa kwawo, uye ukabatanidzwa pamuorivhi womumunda zvichipesana namasikirwo azvo, ko, kuzoti ayo agara ari epo achazofara sei kuti abatanidzwezve mumuti wawo womuorivhi?
25 I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to this mystery, in order that you may not he wise with yourselves, that blindness in part has happened unto Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles may come in;
Hama dzangu, handidi kuti musaziva, chakavanzika ichi, kuti murege kuva namanyawi: vaIsraeri vakaomeswa mwoyo kusvikira veDzimwe Ndudzi vakakwana vapinda.
26 and so all Israel shall be saved: as has been written, A leader shall come out of Zion, shall turn ungodliness from Jacob.
Naizvozvo Israeri yose ichaponeswa, sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: “PaZioni pachabuda musununguri; achabvisa kusada Mwari kuna Jakobho.
27 And this is the covenant with me unto them, that I may take away their sins.
Uye iyi ndiyo sungano yangu navo kana ndabvisa zvivi zvavo.”
28 They are enemies indeed, as touching the gospel, for your sakes: but beloved with reference to election for the sake of the fathers:
Kana zviri zvevhangeri, ivo vavengi nokuda kwenyu; asi kana kuri kusanangurwa, vadikanwi nokuda kwamadzibaba,
29 for the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
nokuti zvipo zvaMwari nokudana kwake hazvishandurwi.
30 For as you at one time were disobedient to God, but now you have received mercy through their disobedience,
Nokuti sezvo imi makanga musingateereri Mwari pane imwe nguva magamuchira ngoni zvino nokuda kwokusateerera kwavo,
31 even also these were now disobedient, in order that through the mercy shown to you they themselves may now also obtain mercy.
saizvozvo naivowo zvino havachateereri kuitira kuti vagamuchire ngoni nokuda kwengoni dzaMwari kwamuri.
Nokuti Mwari akapfigira vanhu vose pakusateerera kwavo, kuti avanzwire ngoni vose. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of the riches of the wisdom of the knowledge of God! His judgments are unsearchable, and his ways past tracing out.
Haiwa, udzamu hwokupfuma kwouchenjeri noruzivo rwaMwari! Kutonga kwake hakunganzverwi, uye makwara ake haangarondwi!
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? who became his counsellor?
“Ndianiko akaziva pfungwa dzaShe? Kana akava mupi wake wamazano?”
35 or who has given unto him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
“Ndianiko akambopa kuna Mwari kuti Mwari angamuripirazve?”
