Romans 1
1 From Paul, a slave of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for a gospel of God,
Paulusi, muhikana wa Jesu Kreste, yava sumpwa kuva mu Apositola, niku kauhanyezwa hembali che ivangeli ye Ireeza.
2 which through his prophets he promised beforetime, in holy writings;
Iyi nje ivangeli yava sepisi inako ni seni kusika ca ma porofita mumanolo a njolola.
3 this gospel is concerning his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of David’s posterity in respect of his bodily nature,
Ku amana ni mwanakwe, yava zalwa kwi shika lya Davida chokuya ke nyama.
4 but was by his resurrection from the dead instated as Son of God, with power, in respect of his spirit of holiness.
Cho kuvuka ku vafwile, ave zibahazwa kuva iye Mwana we Ireeza we ziho cho Luhuho loku jolola- Jesu Kreste Simwine wetu.
5 It is through him, even Jesus Christ our Lord, that I received grace and apostleship to promote obedience to the faith among all the Gentiles, for his name’s sake;
Chakwe tuva hewa chishemo ni vu apostola cho kusepahala kwe ntumelo mwi fasi lyonse, chevaka lye zina lyakwe.
6 among whom you also are called to be Jesus Christ’s.
Mukati kezi inkanda, nanwe vulyo muva sumpwa kuti muve kwa Jesu Kreste.
7 To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints. May God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, bless you, and give you peace.
Ilyi ñolo njilyavo vonse vena mwa Roma, va sakiwa ve Ireeza, va sumpwa kuva vantu va jolola. Chishemo chive kwenu, ni nkozo izwa kwe Ireeza Ishetu ni Jesu Kreste.
8 First I thank my God, through Jesus Christ, for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout all the world.
Chentanzi, ni litumela kwe Ireeza ka Jesu Kreste henu muvonse, kakuti i ntumelo yenu ya wambwa mwi nkanda yonse.
9 God is my witness, to whom I render holy service in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I am ever making mention of you in my prayers,
Kaho Ireeza impaki yangu, ini seveleza mu Luho lwangu mwi evangeli ya mwana, muni zwile havusu kuwamba zakwe.
10 always entreating him that now at length, if such be his will, the way may be made clear for me to come to you.
Inako ni nako ni kumbilanga mwi ntampelo zangu kapa mwinzila yonse kumamani mani nive yo zwila havusu hanu ke ntato ye Ireeza mwikwiza kwenu.
11 For I am longing so to see you, in order to impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established;
Kaho ni tavela kukuvona, kuti ni mihe mupuzo za Luhuho, kuti ni mikolise.
12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged by you, each of us by the other’s faith, yours and mine.
China njichi, ni nungwa kuva yo susuwezwa mu kati kenu, ke ntumelo yetu tu vonse, yenu ni yangu.
13 I want you to know, brothers, that many a time I have planned to come to you - though until now I have been hindered - so as to have some harvest-fruit among you also, even as I have among the rest of the Gentiles.
Hanu kani saki kuti kanzi muvi va sezivite, va kwaangu, kuti niva kusakanga kwiza kwenu, kono niva vinditwe haisi hanu. Niva kusaka izi kuti muve ni miselo mukati kenu sina hamwina mukati ka machava.
14 To Greeks and to barbarians, to the cultured and to the uncultured, I have a debt to discharge.
Ni mukoroti hamwina kuma Greeki mi niku mazwahule, hamwina kuvena vutali niva holo.
15 So much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
Cwale kwangu, nilitukise kuwamba evangeli nikwenu mwina mwa Roma.
16 FOR I AM PROUD OF THE GOSPEL. IT IS GOD’S SAVING POWER FOR EVERY ONE WHO BELIEVES. FOR THE JEW FIRST, AND ALSO FOR THE GENTILE.
Kaho kani swaveli evangeli, kaho manta a Ireeza ye mpuluso ya vantu vonse va zumina, kaho ma Juda chetanzi ni ma Greeki.
17 FOR IN IT IS BEING REVEALED A RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH PROCEEDS FROM GOD, FROM FAITH UNTO FAITH; AS IT IS WRITTEN.
Kaho mwateni kujolola kwa Ireeza kuli vonahaza kwi ntumelo ni ntumelo, sina mwiva ñolelwa, “Va jolola kava hale che ntumelo.”
18 For God’s wrath is ever being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who smother the truth by their unrighteousness.
Kaho ku venga kwe Ireeza kulivonahaza kuzwa kwi wulu kwavo vasali ve Ireeza niku vantu vasa jololi, avo mukusa jololi va kakatiza vuniti.
19 This is so because that which may be known of God is manifest among them; for God has made it manifest to them.
Ilyo njivaka kuti icho chiziveka kwe Ireeza chivoneka kwavo. Kaho Ireeza avavahi iseli.
20 For ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his everlasting power and divinity, has been clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made. So they have no excuse. (aïdios g126)
Kaho zisa voneki zakwe zivoneka hande kuzwa fela hakuvubwa kwe nkanda. Zi zuwahala che zintu ziva vubwa. Izi zintu nji manta akwe okuya kwile ni mukwa wakwe mulotu. Che nkalavo, ava vantu ka vena mavaka. (aïdios g126)
21 For although they knew God, yet they did not glorify him as God, nor give him thanks; but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.
Ili njivaka, nanga havava kwizi ze Ireeza, kena vava munyamuni chokuva Ireeza, kapa kulitumela kwali. Kono, vavavi zihole mu mihupulo yavo, mi inkulo zavo zi sena mano yavo iva vikwa mwi fifi.
22 While they professed to be wise, they became fools,
Vava kulihinda kuti vena vutali, kona vava sanduki kuva zihole.
23 and exchanged the majesty of the imperishable God for an idol, graven in the likeness of perishable man, or of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
Vava lichinchi inkanya yoku samana Ireeza cho kuswana chiswaniso yo kumana kwa muntu, ya zizuni, ni zivatana za matende yone, nizi kokova.
24 So God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their own bodies;
Cwale he Ireeza ava vahi kwavo ve ntakazo mwinkulo zavo chokusa jolola, kuti mivili yavo kanzi ikutekwa mukati kavo.
25 because they exchanged the truth of God for an untruth, and worshiped and served the creature, rather than the Creator who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Njivona vava chinchi initi ye Ireeza cha mapa, mi vava lapeli niku seveleza chiva vumbwa kusiya yava zivumbi, ya hewa intumbo kuya kwile. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 That is why God has given them up to passions of dishonor; for on the one hand their women actually changed the natural function of sex into that which is against nature;
Ke vaka lyechi, Ireeza avava siyi va yende che ntakazo zi swavisa, kaho vanakazi vava chinchi muvekalile kwecho chisa swaneli.
27 and on the other hand their men likewise abandoned the natural use of women, and were ablaze with passion for one another; men with men practising shameless acts and receiving in their own person that recompense of their wrong-doing which necessarily followed.
Cho mukwa uwo, va kwame va siya mulawo wavo ku vanakazi nikuhya mwi ntakazo zavo kuhamwina. Ava va kwame vava pangi zintu isali njizona ni vamwi va kwame, mi vava amuheli mupuzo wavo kuzivavapangi.
28 And just as they refused to continue to retain God in their knowledge, so did God cast them out to an outcast mind, to do those things which were indecent.
Kakuti kena vava zuminizi kuva ni Ireeza mukapanga kwavo, avavahi ku muhupulo ulyangene, njokuti va pange zintu zisena hande.
29 They were overflowing with every kind of iniquity, depravity, greed, and malice. They were full of envy, murder, quarreling, deceit, and malignity.
Vava kwizwile kusa jolola, kuva ni lunya, ni ntakazo, ni vuvi. Vezwile muuna, impulayo, inkani, kuchenga, ni zintu zivi.
30 They became whisperers, back-biters, hated of God, insolent, haughty, boastful. They invented sins. They were disobedient to parents.
Vasoha, vanyefuli, niva toyete Ireeza. Zi vangama, vena mwipo, vali nyamona. vatendi va zintu zivi, mi kave chilili va shemi vavo.
31 They were without sense, without faith, without natural affection, without mercy.
Kavena inkutwisiso; kena voku sepa, kavena irato, mi kavena chishemo.
32 Though they knew well the ordinance of God, that those who practise such vices are worthy of death, they not only continue to do the same, but were even applauding those who practise vice.
Va zuwisisa inkatulo ye Ireeza, kuti avo va tenda izo zintu va swanela ifu. Kono kena kuti va panga izi zintu, va zuminiza ni vamwi va panga izi zintu.
