< Romans 15 >

1 We, then, who are strong, ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Na rĩrĩ, ithuĩ arĩa tũrĩ na hinya-rĩ, twagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkuuanagĩra na arĩa matarĩ na hinya maũndũ mao ma ũhinyaru na to gwĩkenagia ithuĩ ene.
2 Wherefore, let every one of us please his neighbor, as far as it is good for edification.
O ũmwe witũ nĩagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkenia mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ make mega, nĩgeetha ongererwo hinya.
3 For even Christ sought not his own pleasure: but, as it is written, "The reproaches of them who reproached you, have fallen on me."
Nĩgũkorwo o na Kristũ ndekenirie we mwene, no o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Irumi cia arĩa makũrumaga nĩ niĩ ciagwĩrĩire.”
4 Now whatever things were before written, were written for our instruction: that through the patience and admonition of the scriptures, we might have hope.
Nĩgũkorwo maũndũ mothe marĩa maandĩkirwo tene maandĩkirwo marĩ ma gũtũruta, nĩgeetha tũgĩage na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro nĩ ũndũ wa gũkirĩrĩria na kũũmĩrĩrio nĩ Maandĩko macio.
5 Now, may the God who gives patience and admonition, give to you mutual unity of sentiment, according to Christ Jesus.
Ngai ũrĩa ũheanaga ũkirĩrĩria na ũũmanĩrĩria aromũhe roho wa ũiguano o mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ rĩrĩa mũkũrũmĩrĩra Kristũ Jesũ,
6 That with one mind, and with one voice, you may glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
nĩgeetha mũgoocithagie Ngai o we Ithe wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ mũrĩ na ngoro ĩmwe na mũgambo ũmwe.
7 Wherefore, cordially receive one another; even as Christ also has received us to the glory of God.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o mũndũ nĩagĩĩtĩkagĩre ũrĩa ũngĩ, o ta ũrĩa mwetĩkĩrirwo nĩ Kristũ, nĩgeetha Ngai agoocagwo.
8 Now, I affirm that Jesus Christ became a minister of the circumcision on account of the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises made to the fathers;
Nĩgũkorwo ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, Kristũ okire arĩ ndungata ya Ayahudi nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wa ma wa Ngai, nĩguo ahingie ciĩranĩro iria cierĩirwo maithe maitũ ma tene,
9 and that the Gentiles might praise God on account of mercy: as it is written, "For this cause I will glorify thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name."
nĩgeetha andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ magoocithagie Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciake, ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũkũgooca ndĩ gatagatĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ; nĩndĩrĩinaga nyĩmbo cia kũgooca rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
10 And again he says, "Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people."
Ningĩ nĩ kwĩrĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Kenai, inyuĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, mũrĩ hamwe na andũ ake.”
11 And again, "Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; and extol him, all you people."
Na ningĩ nĩ kwĩrĩtwo atĩrĩ, “Goocai Mwathani, inyuĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ othe, na mũmũinĩre nyĩmbo cia kũmũgooca, inyuĩ andũ othe.”
12 And again, Isaiah says, to be a leader of the Gentiles; upon him shall the Gentiles place their hope."
O na ningĩ, Isaia nĩoigĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩtagwo Mũri wa Jesii nĩagooka, o we ũrĩa ũkaarahũka atuĩke wa gwatha ndũrĩrĩ, nao andũ-acio-a-Ndũrĩrĩ nĩmakaagĩa na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro thĩinĩ wake.”
13 Now, may the God of hope fill you with all joy, and peace, in believing; in order that you may abound in that hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Na rĩrĩ, Ngai ũrĩa arĩ we mwĩhoko witũ aromũiyũria na gĩkeno gĩothe na thayũ tondũ wa ũrĩa mũmwĩhokete, nĩgeetha mũkĩrĩrĩrie kũgĩa na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wa Roho Mũtheru.
14 However, my brethren, I myself am persuaded concerning you, that you also are full of goodness, being filled with all knowledge; able, also, to instruct one another.
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, niĩ mwene nĩnjĩtĩkĩrĩte atĩ inyuĩ ene nĩmũiyũrĩtwo nĩ wega, na nĩ mũrĩ na ũmenyo mũiganu, o na mũkahota gũtaarana inyuĩ ene.
15 But, I have written the more boldly to you, brethren; partly, as calling things to your remembrance through the favor which is given me of God.
Ndĩmwandĩkĩire ũndũ ũyũ ndĩ na ũũmĩrĩru mũingĩ ngĩmwĩra maũndũ mamwe, taarĩ kũmũririkania maũndũ macio rĩngĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa wega ũrĩa Ngai aaheire,
16 In order to my being a minister of Jesus Christ, among the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that there might be an offering of the Gentiles most acceptable; being sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
nĩguo nduĩke mũtungatĩri wa Kristũ Jesũ kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ, ndutage wĩra wa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wa kũhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Ngai, nĩgeetha andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ magaatuĩka igongona rĩĩtĩkĩrĩku nĩ Ngai, o rĩrĩa rĩtherie nĩ Roho Mũtheru.
17 I have, therefore, glorifying, through Christ Jesus, with respect to things pertaining to God.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngwĩraha thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wa ũtungata wakwa ngĩtungatĩra Ngai.
18 But, I will not dare to speak anything of what Christ has not wrought; but, of what he has wrought, by me, in order to the obedience of the Gentiles in word and deed;
Ndikũgeria kwaria ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ tiga o ũrĩa Kristũ ahingĩtie na ũndũ wakwa harĩ ũhoro wa gũtongoria andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ ũhoro-inĩ wa gwathĩkĩra Ngai, nĩ ũndũ wakwa kũheana ũhoro na maũndũ marĩa mekirwo,
19 by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Holy Spirit: so that from Jerusalem, and round about, as far as Illyricum, I have fully declared the gospel of Christ;
na ũndũ wa hinya ũrĩa watũmaga kũringwo ciama na kuonwo morirũ, tondũ wa hinya wa Roho Mũtheru. Na nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo kuuma Jerusalemu kũrigiicũka nginya Iluriko, nĩhunjĩtie biũ Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Kristũ.
20 and so, also, that I was strongly desirous to declare the gospel where Christ was not named, that I might not build on another's foundation.
Na rĩrĩ, ndũire ndĩĩrirĩirie kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega kũrĩa Kristũ atamenyekete, nĩgeetha ndikanatuĩke wa gwaka igũrũ rĩa mũthingi wakĩtwo nĩ mũndũ ũngĩ.
21 But, as it is written, "They shall see, to whom nothing has been told concerning him; and they who have not heard, shall understand."
No rĩrĩ, nĩgũtuĩke o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo, atĩrĩ: “Arĩa matarĩ meerwo ũhoro wake nĩo makaawona, na arĩa matarĩ maigua nĩo magaataũkĩrwo nĩguo.”
22 For which reason, also, I have been greatly hindered from coming to you.
Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩtũmi kĩrĩa kĩanagiria mahinda maingĩ njũke kũu kwanyu.
23 But now, having no more place in these parts, and having for many years a strong desire to come to you,
No rĩu, tondũ hatirĩ handũ hangĩ ingĩruta wĩra ngʼongo-inĩ ici, na tondũ mĩaka mĩingĩ nĩngoretwo ngĩĩrirĩria kũmuona-rĩ,
24 whensoever I go toward Spain, I hope, as I pass on, to see you, and to be brought on my way thither by you, when I shall first, in some measure, be satisfied with your company.
nĩndĩrabanga gwĩka ũguo ngĩthiĩ Sipania. Nĩndĩrehoka gũkaamũceerera ngĩhĩtũkĩra kũu kwanyu, na atĩ nĩmũkandeithĩrĩria gũthiĩ rũgendo rũu, thuutha wa gũkenanĩra na inyuĩ ihinda inini.
25 But now I go to Jerusalem, ministering to the saints;
No rĩu ndĩ rũgendo-inĩ ngĩthiĩ Jerusalemu ngatungatĩre andũ arĩa aamũre marĩ kũu.
26 for Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor of the saints who are in Jerusalem.
Nĩgũkorwo andũ a Makedonia na a Akaia nĩmoonire arĩ wega kũhotha nĩguo mateithie andũ arĩa athĩĩni a thiritũ ya andũ arĩa aamũre kũu Jerusalemu.
27 They have been pleased, indeed; and their debtors they are: for if the Gentiles have partaken of their spiritual things, they ought certainly to minister to them in temporal things.
Ũguo nĩguo moonire kwagĩrĩire, na ti-itherũ nĩ marĩ na thiirĩ wa andũ acio. Tondũ wa rĩĩrĩ, angĩkorwo andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ nĩmagwatanĩire na Ayahudi irathimo cia kĩĩroho-rĩ, o nao marĩ na thiirĩ kũrĩ Ayahudi wa kũmatungatĩra na indo iria marathimĩtwo nacio.
28 Wherefore, having finished this affair, and having sealed to them this fruit, I will go from thence by you into Spain.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndaarĩkia kũruta wĩra ũcio, na menye wega atĩ maciaro macio nĩ marĩkia kwamũkĩrwo-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngamũceerera ngĩthiĩ Sipania.
29 And I know when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ ngĩũkĩra kũu kwanyu, ngaakorwo njiyũrĩrĩirwo nĩ irathimo cia Kristũ.
30 Now, I beseech you, brethren, by the Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me, by prayers for me to God;
Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, nĩndamũthaitha nĩ ũndũ wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ na nĩ ũndũ wa wendani ũrĩa tũheetwo nĩ Roho, atĩ mũnyiitanĩre na niĩ kĩgiano-inĩ gĩakwa na ũndũ wa kũhooya Ngai nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
31 that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judea; and that my service, which I am performing for Jerusalem, may be acceptable to the saints:
Hooyai nĩgeetha ngaahonokio kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa matetĩkĩtie a kũu Judea, na ningĩ atĩ ũtungata wakwa kũu Jerusalemu ũgetĩkĩrĩka nĩ andũ arĩa aamũre akuo,
32 that in joy I may come to you, through the will of God, and may be refreshed among you.
nĩgeetha ngooka kũrĩ inyuĩ ngenete, Ngai enda, na tũcanjamũke tũrĩ hamwe.
33 Now may the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
Ngai mwene thayũ aroikara hamwe na inyuĩ inyuothe. Ameni.
