Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, having been separated to the good news of God,
See kiri on Pauluselt, Jeesuse Kristuse sulaselt. Mind kutsus apostliks Jumal. Jumal määras mind kuulutama head sõnumit,
2 which He announced before through His prophets in holy writings,
mida ta eelnevalt on? Pühakirjas oma prohvetite kaudu tõotanud.
3 concerning His Son—who has come of the seed of David according to the flesh,
Hea sõnum on tema Pojast, kelle inimesest esiisa oli Taavet,
4 who is marked out [as the] Son of God in power, according to the Spirit of sanctification, by the resurrection from the dead—Jesus Christ our Lord;
kuid kes sai avalikuks kui Jumala Poeg, kui ta Püha Vaimu väel surnuist üles tõusis. Tema on Jeesus Kristus, meie Issand.
5 through whom we received grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, in behalf of His Name;
Tema kaudu sain eesõiguse olla apostel, et kutsuda kõiki rahvaid kuulekalt temasse uskuma.
6 among whom are also you, the called of Jesus Christ;
Ka teie olete nende hulgas, keda kutsuti Jeesusele Kristusele kuuluma.
7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called holy ones: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Ma kirjutan teile kõigile, kes olete Roomas, keda Jumal armastab ja keda ta on oma eriliseks rahvaks kutsunud. Armu ja rahu teile Jumalalt, meie Isalt, ja Issandalt Jeesuselt Kristuselt!
8 First, indeed, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is proclaimed in the whole world;
Lubage, et ma kõigepealt tänan oma Jumalat Jeesuse Kristuse kaudu teie kõigi eest, sest sellest, kuidas te Jumalasse usute, räägitakse kogu maailmas.
9 for God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the good news of His Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you,
Ma palvetan alati teie eest, nagu võib kinnitada Jumal − see Jumal, keda ma teenin kogu oma olemusega, kui jagan head sõnumit tema Pojast.
10 always in my prayers imploring, if by any means now at length I will have a prosperous journey, by the will of God, to come to you,
Oma palvetes palun ma alati, et võiksin lõpuks tulla ja teiega kohtuda, kui Jumal seda tahab.
11 for I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established;
Ma tõesti tahan teid külastada ja jagada teiega vaimulikku õnnistust teie kinnitamiseks.
12 and that is, that I may be comforted together among you, through faith in one another, both yours and mine.
Nii saame koos julgustust üksteise usust Jumalasse, nii teie usust kui ka minu omast.
13 And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that many times I purposed to come to you—and was hindered until the present time—that some fruit I might have also among you, even as also among the other nations.
Mu vennad ja õed, ma tahan, et te teaksite, et olen sageli teinud plaane teie külastamiseks, kuid mind ei ole seni lastud tulla. Ma tahan näha teie keskel häid vaimulikke tulemusi, nagu ma olen näinud teiste inimeste hulgas.
14 Both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to wise and to thoughtless, I am a debtor,
Sest mul on kohustus töötada nii tsiviliseeritute kui ka tsiviliseerimatute, nii haritute kui ka harimatute heaks.
15 so, as much as in me is, I am ready also to you who [are] in Rome to proclaim good news,
Sellepärast soovin ma tõesti innukalt tulla Roomasse ja jagada teiega head sõnumit.
16 for I am not ashamed of the good news of the Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to everyone who is believing, both to Jew first, and to Greek.
Kindlasti ei häbene ma head sõnumit, sest see on Jumala vägi päästa igaüht, kes temasse usub − kõigepealt juute ja siis ka kõiki teisi.
17 For the righteousness of God in it is revealed from faith to faith, according as it has been written: “And the righteous one will live by faith,”
Sest hea sõnum näitab Jumalat kui head ja õiget, usaldusväärset algusest lõpuni. Nagu Pühakiri ütleb: „Kes on õiged Jumala ees, elavad teda uskudes.“
18 for the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven on all impiety and unrighteousness of men, holding down the truth in unrighteousness.
Jumala vastumeelsust ilmutatakse taevast nende vastu, kes on jumalatud ja kes ei ole moraalselt õiged, nende vastu, kes summutavad tõde halvaga, mida nad teevad.
19 Because that which is known of God is revealed among them, for God revealed [it] to them,
See, mida on võimalik Jumala kohta teada, on ilmne, sest ta on selle neile väga selgeks teinud.
20 for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world, by the things made being understood, are plainly seen, both His eternal power and Godhead—to their being inexcusable; (aïdios g126)
Juba alates maailma loomisest on Jumala nähtamatu olemus − tema igavene vägi ja jumalikkus − selgelt nähtav selles, mida ta on teinud. Sellistel inimestel ei ole vabandust, (aïdios g126)
21 because, having known God they did not glorify [Him] as God, nor gave thanks, but were made vain in their reasonings, and their unintelligent heart was darkened,
sest kuigi nad tundsid Jumalat, ei kiitnud ega ülistanud nad teda, vaid selle asemel muutus nende arvamus Jumalast täielikuks rumaluseks ning nende tühja mõistust täitis pimedus.
22 professing to be wise, they were made fools,
Kuigi nad väitsid, et on targad, said nad rumalaks.
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and of quadrupeds, and of reptiles.
Nad vahetasid surematu Jumala hiilguse surelike inimeste, lindude, loomade ja roomajate kujutiste vastu.
24 For this reason also God gave them up, in the desires of their hearts, to uncleanness, to dishonor their bodies among themselves;
Niisiis jättis Jumal nad nende rikutud mõistuse kurjade soovide küüsi ja nad tegid üksteisele häbiväärseid, alandavaid asju.
25 who changed the truth of God into the lie, and honored and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for all ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Nad vahetasid Jumala tõe vale vastu ning kummardasid ja teenisid loodolevusi, mitte Loojat, kes on väärt kiitust igavesti. Aamen. (aiōn g165)
26 Because of this God gave them up to dishonorable affections, for even their females changed the natural use into that against nature;
Sellepärast jättis Jumal nad nende kurjade soovide küüsi. Nende naised vahetasid loomupärase seksuaalsuse ebaloomuliku vastu,
27 and in like manner also the males having left the natural use of the female, burned in their longing toward one another; males with males working shame, and the repayment of their error that was fit, in themselves receiving.
ning samamoodi loobusid mehed seksist naistega ja põlesid himust üksteise vastu. Mehed tegid üksteisega sündsusetuid asju ning selle tulemusena tabasid neid nende loomuvastasuse paratamatud tagajärjed.
28 And according as they did not approve of having God in knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mind, to do the things not seemly;
Kuna nad ei pidanud väärtuslikuks Jumala tundmaõppimist, jättis ta neid nende väärtusetu, usaldamatu mõtteviisi küüsi, tegema seda, mida ei tohiks kunagi teha.
29 having been filled with all unrighteousness, whoredom, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,
Nad täitsid end kõigega, mis on vale: kurjuse, ahnuse, vihkamise, kadeduse, mõrvamise, tülitsemise, petmise, kuritahtlikkuse ja tagarääkimisega.
30 evil-speakers, God-haters, insulting, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Nad on tagaselja halvustavad ja Jumala vihkajad. Nad on ülbed, uhked ja hooplevad. Nad leiutavad uusi viise patustamiseks. Nad hakkavad oma vanematele vastu.
31 unintelligent, faithless, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful;
Nad ei taha aru saada, nad ei pea lubadusi, nad ei ilmuta mingit lahkust ega kaastunnet.
32 who the righteous judgment of God having known—that those practicing such things are worthy of death—not only do them, but also have delight with those practicing them.
Kuigi nad mõistavad täpselt, mida Jumal nõuab, teevad nad seda, mis on surma väärt. Nad ei tee seda mitte ainult ise, vaid nad toetavad selles ka teisi.
