Romans 11
1 I say then, did God cast away His people? Let it not be! For I am also an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin:
Pu leino niita, pu, uNguluve avabeilile avanu vamwene? Ndeili na padebe. Ulwakhuva une nayune neili Mwisraeli, eikhivumbukhu khya Abrahamu, vakhikolo eikhya Benyamini.
2 God did not cast away His people whom He knew before; have you not known—in Elijah—what the Writing says? How he pleads with God concerning Israel, saying,
UNguluve savabele avanu vamwene, uvuavamanyile ukhuhuma khuvulenguleilo. Pu samlumanyile uvuveige wiita khiikhi ukhukongana nu Eliya, umuasimeleihinche khwa uNguluve savuli ya Vaisraeli?
3 “LORD, they killed Your prophets, and they dug down Your altars, and I was left alone, and they seek my life”;
“Ntwa vavabudile avasuhwa vakho, navene vanchinanginie inekhelo nchakho, une nei mwene nene niesiigile, navene vilonda uwumi wango.”
4 but what does the divine answer say to him? “I left to Myself seven thousand men who did not bow a knee to Ba‘al.”
Pu uwamule wa Nguluve wiita khiikhi khyulyuve? “Neileiveikhile savuli yango avaalufu saba yango avusavikhufugameela amafugamilo uBaali.”
5 So then also in the present time there has been a remnant according to the [divine] selection of grace;
Paninie neiyo, usiekhe ugu leino pu khuvaale uvuvasigile savu ya vuhale wa luhungu.
6 and if by grace, no longer of works, otherwise grace becomes no longer grace; and if of works, it is no longer grace, otherwise work is no longer work.
Pui leino yiengave savuli ya luhungu, pusayiva mumivombele. pu apo uluhungu pusalwiva luhungu.
7 What then? What Israel seeks after, this it did not obtain, and the chosen obtained, and the rest were hardened,
Khyu khinu khikhi leino? eikhyu uIsrael alikhulonda, sakhivone, pu avahaliwa vakhiwene, na vaange vakhasya.
8 according as it has been written: “God gave to them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, to this very day,”
Nduvuyeisimbiwe: “Unguluve avapile einumbula eiyavubungefu, amiho ukhula valekhe ukhulola, ni mbulukhutu ukhuta valekhe ukhupuleikha, pupakha eilelo eiye.”
9 and David says, “Let their table become for a snare, and for a trap, and for a stumbling-block, and for a repayment to them;
Vape uDaudi iita, “Nchilekhe imesa nchavo nchive nyaafu, neimitego gwa khwipeinja, nukhwitavuleila khuvene.
10 let their eyes be darkened—not to behold, and You always bow down their back.”
Galekhe amiho gavo gave niehisi pu valekhe ukhulola. Ukhavinamye emisana gyavo khitaduga.”
11 I say then, did they stumble that they might fall? Let it not be! But by their fall the salvation [is] to the nations, to arouse them to jealousy;
Leino niita, “Puvei, kuvinche nu khugwa?” Yelekhe ukhuva ewo lusikhu. Puleino ukhulemwa khwa veene, uvupokhi vufikhe khuvapanji, ukhuta avene vavo vavone wifu.
12 and if their fall [is] the riches of [the] world, and their diminishment the riches of nations, how much more their fullness?
Leino einave ukhulemwa khwavo vukaviwa khilunga, nu puyiengave uvufuve waavo vukavi wavapanji, pukhigelelo khiekhi eikhilutelile puyeve khunkwila nila khwavo?
13 For to you I speak—to the nations—inasmuch as I am indeed an apostle of nations, I glorify my ministry;
Na leino leino ninchova numwe mwie vunu va panji, neivile isuhwa khuvanu avajilunga ifinge, nikhigineihincha eimbombo ya vutangeli wango.
14 if I will arouse my own flesh to jealousy by any means, and will save some of them,
Pamo yanikhuvapela uwifu avaleimbeili gumo nune, pano ya tukhuvapokha vaninie.
15 for if the casting away of them [is] a reconciliation of the world, what the reception—if not life out of the dead?
Pu eingave ukhubeliwa khwavo lweideha no lwa khilunga, ukhyupeileiliwa khwavo ya khwiva ndakhikhi pu uwumi uwakhuhuma khuvunchukha?
16 And if the first-fruit [is] holy, the lump also; and if the root [is] holy, the branches also.
Einave isekhe itanchi khibana vuyileiwo khu nongeya vutine. Einave undela khibana pu amasasi nagope wuwuwa.
17 And if certain of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a fellow-partaker of the root and of the fatness of the olive tree—
Pu einave amasasi maninie gageidewe, uve, lisasi lya msitu lya Mzeituni, ugugwavyaliwe muvene nu pungave waleepyo paninie navene eimilela gya vukani wa Mizeituni.
18 do not boast against the branches; and if you boast, you do not bear the root, but the root you!
Ulekhe ukhwiginia mumasasi, pu unave vukhiginia saveve yuve vukhugitanga emilela, pu emilela gikhukhutanga uve.
19 You will say, then, “The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in”; right!
Puleino ayawita, “Amaswato gagidiewe ukhuta neivuliwe mukhikolo.
20 By unbelief they were broken off, and you have stood by faith; do not be high-minded, but be fearing;
Eiyo lweli, savuli ya khusita ukhwideekha khwavo vagedeiwe, pu uve wa eimile ulukangafu savuli ya lweideikho lwakho. Ulekhe ukwisageila yuve pakyanya fincho pu dwaadage.
21 for if God did not spare the natural branches—lest perhaps He also will not spare you.
Pu ulwakhuva eingave uNguluve sagalekhe lenche amaswato amatengule, sakha khuhigile uve na yuve.
22 Behold, then, goodness and severity of God—on those indeed who fell, severity; and on you, goodness, if you may remain in the goodness, otherwise, you also will be cut off.
Lola, leino, imbombo inonu nu vukali wa Nguluve. Khuluvafu lumo, uvukali wa inchile khuva yuta vala avagwile. Pu khuluvafu ulunge, uluhungu lwa Nguluve lukhwincha palyuve ungave yawinchiga muvunonu wa mwene. Einave ate uve nayuveayavubeiliwa.
23 And those also, if they may not remain in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again;
Na eingave savakhendelelage mukhusitakhwideekha kwavo, yavi valiwa khange. Ulwa khuva uNguluve alei na makha agakhuvyaleila khange.
24 for if you, out of the olive tree, wild by nature, were cut out, and contrary to nature, were grafted into a good olive tree, how much rather will they, who [are] according to nature, be grafted into their own olive tree?
Pu ulwakhuva umwe mungave mwageidewe khunji khugugwa gwa mbutengulielo Mzeituni gwa msitu, puleino eikyavulenguleilo khileivunge Mzeituni unonu pu sayiva fiva ukhulutilila fincho ava yuta?
25 For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, of this secret—that you may not be wise in your own conceits—that hardness in part to Israel has happened until the fullness of the nations may come in;
Ulwa khuva valokolo saninogwa msite ughulumanya ukhukongana ukhu kongana nei siri eiye, ukhuta mulekhe ukhuva nu luhala mumisagiele gyienyo yumwe. Ei siri eiye khukhuta uvukafu vuhumile mu Israeli, imakha ukhunchikwilanila khwa filunga yakhiva khwinchile.
26 and so all Israel will be saved, according as it has been written: “There will come forth out of Zion He who is delivering, and He will turn away impiety from Jacob,
Puleino ava Israeli vooni yavipokhiwa, ndu unyeisimbiwe: “Ukhuhuma khu Sayuni ikhwincha upokhi, pu ayihencha uvuvivi ukhuhuma khwa Yakobo.
27 and this to them [is] the covenant from Me when I may take away their sins.”
Na eili puyaliva ndagano pu paninie na veene useikhi uguyakhiva nihencha imbivi nchaavo.”
28 As regards, indeed, the good tidings, [they are] enemies on your account; and as regards the [divine] selection—beloved on account of the fathers;
Khuluvafu lumo ukhu kongana neilivangeili, vivipeiliwa savuli yienyo. Khuluvafu ulunge ukhukonga na vuhale wa Nguluve, vavyaliwe savuli ya vankukhu yavo.
29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable;
Ulwa khuv uluhombo ni nyeilango yu Nguluve sayigevukha.
30 for as you also once did not believe in God, and now found kindness by the unbelief of these,
Ulwakhuva pakhwanda umwe mwale vagolo va Nguluve, puleino mulyupeilile uluhungu lwa Nguluve savuli ya khugalukha kwavo.
31 so also these now did not believe, that in your kindness they also may find kindness;
Khunjila yeiyeiyo, leino ava yuta ava vagalwikhe, pu eilyu leivonikhe khukhuta savuli ya khisa ikyu muhungukhiwe umwe mvahile ukhwambeilila uluhungu.
32 for God shut up together the whole to unbelief, that to the whole He might do kindness. (eleēsē g1653)
Ulwakhuva uNguluve avadeindile avanu vooni muvugalukhi, ukhuta pwava vonele eikhisa vooni. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O depth of riches, and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments, and untraceable His ways!
Umunchi velile mbaha uvukavi nu luhungu nu vumanyi wa Nguluve! Savunchingakhimchi wa uvuheigi wa mwene, ni njeila ncha mwene sanchi manyikhikha!
34 For who knew the mind of the LORD? Or who became His counselor?
“Pu veini uvyakhavu manyile uvufumbwe wantwa? puveini va masago khumwene?
35 Or who first gave to Him, and it will be given back to him again?
Pu veini taasi agelieli ukhupa eikhinu uNguluve pu ahombiwe khange?”
