Romans 9
1 I SPEAK the truth in Christ, I lie not, (my conscience also bearing witness to me in the Holy Ghost, )
Neni ntakula nakaka hera, neni wera gwa Kristu na hapeni nzyangi. Mahala ganeni galongoziwa na Rohu Mnanagala, viraa gawera ukapitawu kuwera nakaka neni nzyanga ndiri
2 that great is my sorrow and unceasing the anguish in my heart.
pantakula kuwera nana maholu makulu na utama nentu mumoyu mwaneni
3 For could I myself wish that an anathema should be from Christ upon my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh?
kwa wantu wa isi yaneni! Handa meyiweri kwa mota yawu, mensyaguli kuwera mupangira ya Mlungu na kulekana na Kristu.
4 who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the gift of the law, and the sacred service, and the promises;
Womberi ndo wantu wa Israeli, yomberi kawatenditi womberi waweri wana wakuwi na kawagubutuliti ukwisa wakuwi na katenditi lipatanu lyakuwi na womberi na kuwapanani Lilagaliru lya Musa, womberi wamguwiri nakaka na wawankiti lagilu lya Mlungu.
5 of whom are the fathers, and from whom as respecting the flesh Christ sprung, who is over all, the blessed God for evermore. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Womberi wawera washiyiwuku kulawa kwa wazewi yawamanikana na Kristu munshimba yakuwi kalawa muukowu wawu. Ukwisa uweri kwa Mlungu yakakolamlima muvyoseri mashaka goseri! Yina haa. (aiōn g165)
6 Now it is not supposable that the word of God hath failed. For these are not all Israel, who are of Israel:
Neni ntakula ndiri kuwera Mlungu kaweza ndiri kutenda ntambu yakalonga, toziya hapeni tulongi kuwera wantu woseri wa Israeli ndo wantu wa Mlungu,
7 nor, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
ama walerwa woseri wa Aburahamu ndo wana wa Mlungu. Mlungu kamgambiriti Aburahamu, “Kupitira Isaka haguweri na shiyiwuku shanukulagiliti.”
8 That is, not the children of the flesh, these are the children of God: but the children of the promise are accounted for the seed.
Kwa njira yamonga kulonga, wana woseri ndiri yawamshemiti Aburahamu “Tati” waweriti wana wa Mlungu, kumbiti wana wa lagilu hera ndo washemitwi wana wa Aburahamu.
9 For the word of promise is this, At that time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.
Toziya lagilu yeni ndo ayi, “Mushinja shashiza Sara hakapati mwana.”
10 And not only so; but when Rebecca also had conception by one, even Isaac our father;
Na aga goseri ndiri, Rebeka kaweriti na wana wawili wa tati yumu, mbuyi gwetu Isaka.
11 (though the children were not yet born, nor had done any thing good or evil, that according to the election of God the purpose might abide, not from works, but from him who called; )
Katakuliti aga pamberi kwiwuka kwa womberi, womberi pamberi hawenitendi shoseri shiherepa ama shidoda, su usyagula wa Mlungu uwusu ushema wakuwi na kwahera shoseri shawatenditi womberi.
12 it was said unto her, “That the elder shall be servant to the younger.”
Kumbiti usyagula wa mwana yumu kuweriti malawiranu kamili ga mpangu gwa Mlungu mweni, Mlungu kamgambiriti mdala ulii, “Mkulu hakamtenderi mpusu.”
13 As it is written, “Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.”
Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalembwa, “Neni numufira Yakobu, kumbiti numkalalira Esawu.”
14 What shall we say therefore? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
Hashi, tutakuli shishi? Hashi, Mlungu kankubagula? Ndala!
15 For he saith to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”
Yomberi kamgambiriti Musa, “Hanumwoneri lusungu muntu yoseri yanfira kumwonera lusungu, hanumfiri muntu yoseri yanumfira.”
16 Well then, it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God who sheweth mercy.
Galitumbira ndiri ntambu yatufira twenga ama kutenda, kumbiti su goseri galitumbira lusungu lya Mlungu.
17 For the scripture saith to Pharaoh, “That for this very end have I raised thee up, that I might display in thee my power, and that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.”
Malembu Mananagala galonga hangu kwa Farawu mfalumi gwa Misri, “Nukutenda gwenga guweri mfalumi su kukutumiya gwenga kulanguziya makakala gangu na kutenda litawu lyangu limanikani pasipanu poseri.”
18 Well then, he hath mercy on whom he will, but whom he will he hardeneth.
Mlungu kamwonera lusungu muntu yoseri yakafira na pakafira kamtenda muntu yoseri kuwera mkayidi.
19 Wilt thou then say to me, Why yet doth he blame us? Who hath resisted his will?
Kumbiti yumu gwenu hakankosiyi neni, Hashi, vitwatira paviwera hangu, Mlungu kaweza hashi kumlawumu muntu? Hashi, gaa yakaweza kugadiwira mafiliru ga Mlungu?
20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that disputest against God? Shall the thing fashioned say to him that fashioned it, Why hast thou made me thus?
Hashi, ganja gwangu, gwenga gwa gaa gumkosiya Mlungu? Hashi, shiwiga shiweza kumkosiya mnyawa gwakuwi, “Iwera hashi gunyawa ntambu ayi?”
21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, from the same mass to make one vessel for an honourable use, and another for a dishonourable?
Mnyawa shiwiga kaweza kugutendera ukaka ntambu yakafira mweni na kuvinyawa viwiga viwili kwa ukaka ulaa ulii, shimu kwa matenderu ga ligoya na shimonga kwa matenderu ga ntambu irahayi.
22 But what if God, willing to display his wrath, and to make known what is possible with him, hath borne with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted for perdition:
Hangu ndo ntambu yayiwera nakaka kwa Mlungu. Yomberi kafiriti kulanguziya maya gakuwi na kutenda makakala gakuwi gamanikani. Kumbiti yomberi ndo muhepelera kwa walii yawaweriti lengu lya azabu yakuwi, walii yawafiruwitwi kuharabisiwa.
23 and that he might make known the riches of his glory upon the vessels of mercy which he had before prepared for glory:
Yomberi kafiriti kugubutula ulunda wa ukwisa wakuwi, yakatumiminiriti twenga yatuweriti lengu lya lusungu lwakuwi, twenga walii yakatutandiriti kala kuwanka ukwisa wakuwi.
24 even us, whom he hath called, not only out of the Jews, but out of the Gentiles?
Twenga twawantu yawashemitwi, twenga tulawa ndiri pakati pa Wayawudi kumbiti viraa kulawa pakati pa wantu yawawera Wayawudi ndiri.
25 As also he saith in Hosea, “I will call her which was not my people, my people; and her which was not beloved, beloved.
Hangu ndo ntambu yakalonga mushindora sha Hoseya, “Wantu yawawera ndiri waneni Hanuwashemi ‘Wantu waneni.’ Isi yanuyifiriti ndiri Hanuyishemi ‘Mfira gwangu.’
26 And it shall be in the place where it was said unto them, ye are not my people; there shall they be called the sons of the living God.”
Palii pawagambiritwi, ‘Mwenga mwa wantu waneni ndiri,’ womberi hawashemwi wana wa Mlungu yakalikala.”
27 But Isaiah crieth concerning Israel, “Though the number of the sons of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu kankubota kuusu Israeli, “Ata handa wantu wa Israeli wawera wavuwa gambira muhanga gwa kumpwani, wavuwa ndiri ndo hawalopoziwi.
28 for he will finish the account, and cut it short in righteousness: because a concise account will the Lord make on the earth.”
Mtuwa hakatendi kanongola kutoza kwakuwi kamilika pasipanu poseri.”
29 Even as Isaiah had said before, “Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left unto us a seed, we should have become as Sodom, and been made like unto Gomorrha.”
Ndo gambira pakatakuliti Isaya pamberi, “Handa Mtuwa yakawera na uwezu metulekiriti twenga shiyiwuku wamu, metwizi kuwera gambira lushi lwa Sodoma, metuweri gambira lushi lwa Gomora.”
30 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who pursued not after righteousness, have attained unto righteousness, even the righteousness which is by faith.
Su twenga tutakula kuwera wantu yawawera wayawudi ndiri, yawalitenda ndiri weni kuwera waheri kulongolu kwa Mlungu kupitira ugangamala wawu weni, womberi wawera waheri kulongolu kwa Mlungu kupitira njimiru,
31 But Israel, pursuing after the law of righteousness, hath not come up to the law of righteousness.
kumbiti Wayawudi, yawasakula malagaliru ga kuwatenda waweri waheri kulongolu kwa Mlungu, wapata ndiri.
32 And why? Because they sought it not by faith, but as by the works of the law. For they stumbled against that stone of stumbling;
Kwa shishi? Toziya walitumbira matendu gawu pa kutumbira njimiru. Su womberi walikwaliti panani pa “libuwi lya kulikwala.”
33 as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence: and every one that believeth in him shall not be confounded.”
Ntambu Malembu Mnanagala galonga, “Guloli, hantuli aku Sayuni libuwi lya kuwatenda wantu walikwali, Litalawu haliwatendi wantu waguwi. Kumbiti muntu yoseri yakamjimira yomberi hapeni kasoniziwi.”
