Romans 9
1 Truth I say in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience bearing testimony with me in the Holy Spirit,
Ma tok bilenke mor Kiritti. Ma cwerbo cwerke, dume ner miro ne warke dor miir mor yuwa tangbe ko wucakke,
2 that I have great grief and unceasing pain in my heart—
La man wiki fir nerero dur kange buwarum ne wo man ki dika mor nere mi.
3 for I was wishing, I myself, to be accursed from the Christ—for my brothers, my relatives, according to the flesh,
Man cwi na ci cilim ye ri ri naci tikangum ye kange Almaciya ker keb mib bo bwiyeu buro nyi ceru bitine wiineu.
4 who are Israelites, whose [is] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the lawgiving, and the service, and the promises,
Cii Icrailawa, ciin wi ki yilaka bi bei Kwamak, duktangka, nor tini, luma nere bolangek, wabka Kwamak, kange diker co ciya con macineneu.
5 whose [are] the fathers, and of whom [is] the Christ, according to the flesh, who is God over all, blessed for all ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Tenkwanibbo na ce wo Kiritti ceru wi ki te bwi yeu- Co wo cin Kwama dor dikero gwameu. Cak lanka nace diri. A ti nyo. (aiōn g165)
6 And it is not possible that the word of God has failed; for not all who [are] of Israel are these of Israel;
Dila kebo ki nor Kwama ro dii be. Kebo nubo gwam mor Icraila wo nii Icraila bilenke.
7 nor because they are seed of Abraham [are] all children, but, “in Isaac will a seed be called to you”;
Kaka naniya Ibraime ko gwam bibeiyo loce ken. Dila “Na niya mweko a cuwo Icaku nen”
8 that is, the children of the flesh—these [are] not children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for seed;
Bi beiyo tebwiye kebo bi bei Kwamab. Dila be bei nore bo cii ci tuu cii ti bi bei naniya ke.
9 for the word of promise [is] this: “According to this time I will come, and there will be to Sarah a son.”
Wo co noro: “ki kwama wo bilang matin bou, Caratu an bō bwe.”
10 And not only [so], but also Rebecca, having conceived by one—our father Isaac
Kebo ka wo, Rifkatu tū fwer kange nii kange wiin, tee be Icaku-
11 (for they being not yet born, neither having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to [divine] selection, might remain; not of works, but of Him who is calling),
la cii bō bo bi beiyo bwiri takeu cii mabo dikero ken kaka dikero bwir, na cwika Kwama ko ki cokka ceko atin dim, kebo ker nangen tini dila ker ker cer wo cuwo bi cuworeu.
12 it was said to her, “The greater will serve the less”;
Cin yi co ki “Durko atin yila canga bi duwareu.”
13 according as it has been written: “Jacob I loved, and Esau I hated.”
Kin na wo cii mulangeu: “Yakubu ma cwi ye, la Icuwa ma kowe.”
14 What, then, will we say? Unrighteousness [is] with God? Let it not be!
Ye ba tok tiye? bwini cak-cake wi Kwama nina? Mani nyo.
15 For to Moses He says, “I will do kindness to whom I do kindness, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion”;
Con yi Muca coki,”Man nung cii duwe ki nii wo ma nung ten cii duwe tiye, ta keu man nung bwinang ka ki nii wo ma nung ten bunang ka tiye.”
16 so then—not of him who is willing, nor of him who is running, but of God who is doing kindness;
La kebo cwii ka niik kaka ker nii wo cwa cwake, dila ker Kwama, wo nung cii duwe.
17 for the Writing says to Pharaoh, “For this very thing I raised you up, that I might show in you My power, and that My Name might be declared in all the land”;
La bifumero yi Fir'auna, “Wo co diker bwi ma kung neneu, nyori nami nung bi Kwan liyare miu monen, tak ri na dor bitinero gwam nuwa den miro.
18 so then, to whom He wills, He does kindness, and to whom He wills, He hardens.
La Kwama nung cii duwe dor nii co cwi ye, tak ri ciki dok bongtu ki nubo co cwiye.
19 You will say, then, to me, “Why does He yet find fault? For who has resisted His counsel?”
Mon yiye moki,” Ye bwi cito bwirake ti duwale? We ma kwobkanka wi kange dike co cwi tiye?”
20 No, but, O man, who are you that are answering again to God? Will the thing formed say to Him who formed [it], Why did you make me thus?
Nii fir, we mo mwa kwobkang ti kange Kwama? Dike ci mu-muweu atin yi nii wo muu ceu,”Ye bwi mwa muuye nya?”
21 Does the potter not have authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make one vessel to honor and one to dishonor?
La nii muu kubar tiyeu man ki bi kwan liyare dor kubaro ci lūweu naci muu tilar wo nangendo ken nece kange tilar nangener kangkang lo ki kubaro cuwo wiin ci lūwe ka?
22 And if God, willing to show the wrath and to make known His power, endured, in much long suffering, vessels of wrath fitted for destruction,
Nye no Kwama, wo cwiti naci nung funer cer tak ri naci nung bikwan liyare ceu, mwirumom ki biirom nere ducce dukum funero cii yo na twalangka ko ce ri?
23 and that He might make known the riches of His glory on vessels of kindness, that He before prepared for glory, whom also He called—us—
La nye, noci ma wuro nyo naci nung cuweka duktangka cek dor nubo co nungten ciire duwe, wo ki ƙaba ci ywel bwice duktangka?
24 not only out of Jews, but also out of nations,
La ta keno ci mam dike wuro ki bo ken, wo co cuwo takeu, kebo ka Yahudawa ki kwaci, dila more nubo kumta cile ken?
25 as also in Hosea He says, “I will call what [is] not My people—My people; and her not beloved—Beloved,
Kambo co toki tak mor Hosea: “Ma tin cuwo cii nubo lo mii, buro kebo nubo lo miyeu, kange nii co wo no kebo wo ma cwiyeu matin cuwo co nawiye ma cwitiye.
26 and it will be—in the place where it was said to them, You [are] not My people; there they will be called sons of the living God.”
La an yilam, fiye ci yicii ki, “kom kebo nubo lo mi, 'wi ci a cuwo cii ki 'bi bei Kwama ki dume.'”
27 And Isaiah cries concerning Israel, “If the number of the sons of Israel may be as the sand of the sea, the remnant will be saved;
Icaya kung diir ker Icraila, “Bwenno kila ka bi bei Icraila kino na yabum mor caji duwaleu, Cwab ce a fiya fulo tiye,
28 for a matter He is finishing, and is cutting short in righteousness, because a matter cut short will the LORD do on the land.”
Wori Teeluwe atin ma warke dor bitiner, gwam mani a tab bwi ti.”
29 And according as Isaiah says before, “Except the LORD of Hosts left to us a seed, we had become as Sodom, and we had been made like Gomorrah.”
Nawo Icaya toki ki kabau, “Na no Teeluwe nob kwene dob nyi nen bo naniyatini ri, nyoki yilam na Caduma, takeu nyoki yilam na Gwamrata.”
30 What, then, will we say? That nations who are not pursuing righteousness attained to righteousness, and righteousness that [is] of faith,
Ye ba tokti kake? Ri nubo kumtaciliu, buro no tibo doka cak-cakeu, fiyam cak-cake, cak-cake fiye bilenke.
31 and Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, did not arrive at a law of righteousness;
Dila Icrailawa, buro ti doka werfun cak-cakeu, cii fiya bo.
32 why? Because—not by faith, but as by works of law; for they stumbled at the stone of stumbling,
Ye bwiye? Wori cii dobo ki bilenke, dila ki nangentini. Ciin kottangi ki ter kottangkar.
33 according as it has been written: “Behold, I place in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and everyone who is believing thereon will not be ashamed.”
Na wo mulangum mulangeu, To, ma yo ter kottangkati kange cwela ko dok ȳare tiye Cihiyona. Nii wo ne bilenke dorcere ri, mania nuwa kwen duwe ti.
