Romans 13
1 Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and the authorities existing are appointed by God,
Kila muntu kafiruwa kuwajimira wakolamlima wa silikari, toziya silikari yoseri ilawiti kwa Mlungu na ukolamlima utulwa na Mlungu.
2 so that he who is setting himself against the authority, has resisted against God’s ordinance; and those resisting will receive judgment to themselves.
Yoseri yakalema ukolamlima wa isi, kalema lilagaliru lyakalagaliriti Mlungu na muntu yoseri yakatenda hangu hakalijegeri mweni utoza.
3 For those ruling are not a terror to the good works, but to the evil; and do you wish to not be afraid of the authority? Be doing that which is good, and you will have praise from it,
Wakolamlima wa isi watilwa ndiri na wantu walii yawatenda gaherepa, kumbiti watilwa na wantu woseri yawatenda ukondola. Hashi, gufira guweri ndiri na lyoga kulongolu kwa wakolamlima? Su gwenga gutendi gaherepa na womberi hawakuzyumi,
4 for it is a servant of God to you for good; and if you may do that which is evil, be fearing, for it does not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to him who is doing that which is evil.
toziya womberi wawera wantumintumi wa Mlungu yawatenda lihengu kwa mota ya mwenga. Kumbiti pagutenda ukondola, su gufiruwa kuwatira toziya womberi wawera na makakala ga kukutoza. Womberi ndo wantumintumi wa Mlungu, womberi yawawera na azabu ya Mlungu kwa woseri yawatenda ukondola.
5 For this reason it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,
Toziya ayi mwenga mfiruwa kuwajimira wakolamlima, hera ndiri kwa kutila azabu ya Mlungu, kumbiti viraa toziya muvimana mumyoyu yamwenga ndo iherepa.
6 for because of this you also pay tribute; for they are servants of God, on this very thing attending continually;
Ntambu iraa ayi mwenga mlipaga kodi, toziya wakolamlima wankumtendera Mlungu pawatimiza mahengu gawu.
7 render, therefore, to all [their] dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honor, the honor.
Mumpanani kila muntu shakafiruwa kupata, wantu yawatola kodi, muwalipi kodi na yawatola ushuru muwalipi ushuru, wantu woseri yawafiruwa ligoya, wapananwi ligoya.
8 To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other—he has fulfilled law,
Namuwera na uwanda kwa muntu yoseri, kumbiti uwanda wa kulifira maweni. Muntu yoseri yakatenda hangu kalijimira Lilagaliru.
9 for, “You will not commit adultery, You will not murder, You will not steal, You will not bear false testimony, You will not covet”; and if there is any other command, in this word it is summed up, in this: “You will love your neighbor as yourself”;
Malagaliru ndo aga, “Nagutenda uhumba, nagulaga, nagwiwa, naguwera na lumatamata kwa shintu sha muntu gwingi.” Goseri aga na gamonga gawera mulilagaliru limu, “Gumfiri muyagu ntambu yagulifira gumweni.”
10 the love to the neighbor works no ill; the love, therefore, [is] the fullness of law.
Handa paguwafira wamonga, gwenga hapeni guwatenderi ukondola, su mafiliru ndo ukamilika wa Lilagaliru lyoseri.
11 And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already [is] to be aroused out of sleep, for now our salvation [is] nearer than when we believed;
Mfiruwa mtendi aga, toziya muvimana kuwera shipindi shiza sha gwenga kwimuka mumpota. Ulopoziya wa twenga wapakwegera vinu kuliku patwanjiti kujimira.
12 the night advanced, and the day came near; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armor of the light;
Pashiru papakwegera kupera na paliwala wapakwegera. Su twenga tuleki kutenda vitwatira vyaviwera vya luwindu na tutoli silaha za ulangala.
13 as in daytime, let us walk properly; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in promiscuity and licentiousness, not in strife and jealousy;
Twenga tufiruwa tulikali ntambu yayifiruwa na unakaka mu kila shintu shatutenda. Namuwera na lwaliya ama ulowera ama undiyandiya ama ndewu ama weya.
14 but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and take no forethought for the flesh—for desires.
Kumbiti Mtuwa Yesu Kristu hakawalongoziyi mwenga, na namulihola kuusu njira za kutenda lumatamata lwa vidoda.
