< Romans 9 >

1 I tell the truth in Messiah. I am not lying, my conscience testifying with me in the Ruach ha-Kodesh,
NGAI kin lokaia melel ren Kristus, o i sota kin likam, pwe insen ai o Ngen saraui kadede ia da,
2 that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.
Me i kin patautau o insensued nan mongiong i kaukaule.
3 For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Messiah for my brothers' sake, my physical relatives according to the flesh,
Pwe pein ngai inong iong en riala, pwen dooki wei sang Kristus pweki ri ai kan ni pali uduk.
4 who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service, and the promises;
Iei men Israel me udan seri en Kot, me ar lingan, o inau kan, o kapung, o upa Kot, o kokop akan mia,
5 of whom are the patriarchs, and from whom is the Messiah, as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Me samaneki sam atail akan me Kristus pil tapi sang ia ni pali uduk a, me poedi meakaros, iei Kot me iasanai kokolata, amen. (aiōn g165)
6 But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel.
Pwe kaidin dene masan en Kot so pwaida, pwe kaidin karos men Israel, me tikidar Israel;
7 Neither, because they are Abraham's descendants, are they all children. But, "In Isaac will your descendants be called."
Pil kaidin karos seri kan, me kisan kadaudok en Apraam; pwe sang ren Isaak kadaudok om pan tapi sang ia.
8 That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as descendants.
Ari, kaidin irail seri en Kot akan, me seri kan ni tiak en uduk, a seri en inau kan pan wad ong kadaudok o.
9 For this is what the promise said, "At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son."
Pwe i masan, masan en inau eu: Ni ansau o I pan kodo, a Sara pan naitikada seri ol amen.
10 And not only that, but Rebekah also had conceived by one, our father Isaac.
A kaidin i eta, pwe pil Repeka lao lisean ong sam atail Isaak.
11 For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,
Pwe ni ansau seri ko kaikenta ipwidier, o pil kaikenta wiadar meakot mau de me sued, o pwe kupur en Kot en pwaida, kaidin ni wiawia a ni lipilipil ren me piladar o,
12 it was said to her, "The elder will serve the younger."
A kotin masani ong i: Me laud o pan papa me tikitik!
13 Even as it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."
Duen a intingidier: Iakop me I pok ong er, a Esau me I likidmalielar.
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Absolutely not.
Ari, da me kitail en inda? Kot me sapung? O so!
15 For he said to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion."
Pwe a kotin masani ong Moses: I pan maki ong, me I men maki ong, o I pan pokepoke, me I men pokepoke.
16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy.
Ari, sota katepa, ma amen pan pein inong iong de tange wei, a ma Kot pan kotin maki ong amen.
17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth."
Pwe kisin likau me katitiki ong Parao: Nan iet me I kilele uk adar, pwe I en kasale kida uk ai manaman, o pwe mar ai en indandeki sili ni sap akan karos.
18 So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.
Ari, a kin kotin maki ong, me a kotin kupura, ap kapitakaila, duen me a kotin mauki.
19 You will say then to me, "Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?"
Koe ap pan indang ia: Ari da me a kailong kin ia? Pwe is me kak palian kupur a?
20 But who indeed are you, a human being, to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, "Why did you make me like this?"
Ei melel aramas koe, is koe, me men palian Kot? Da, dipisou pan indai ong me wiadar i: Menda koe wiai ong ia momuei?
21 Or hasn't the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?
Pala saun wiada dal sota manaman ong, en wia kida lopon en pwel ota dal eu me kaselel, de eu me sakanekan?
22 What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath made for destruction,
A Kot kotin kanongama ong dal sued akan, me wiauier ong lokidokila, ni a men kasaleda a ongiong o manaman,
23 and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,
O a pil men kotin kasaleda a dir en lingan ki dal en a mak kan, me a kotin kaonopadar mas o en linganla.
24 us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the non-Jews?
Iei kitail, me a kotin warongdo, kaidin sang ren Sus akan eta, a pil sang ren men liki kan.
25 As he says also in Hosea, "I will call them which were not my people 'my people,' and her who was not loved, 'loved.'"
Duen a pil kotin masanier nan puk en Osea: I pan kaadaneki irail, me kaidin nai, nai aramas akan, o me so kompoke pai, kompoke pai.
26 "It will be that in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' There they will be called 'children of the living God.'"
A pan wiaui wasa o me a loki ong irail: Komail kaidin nai aramas, i wasa re pan adaneki seri en Kot ieias.
27 And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, "Though the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, the remnant will be kept safe.
A Iesaia likelikwir duen men Israel: Ma seri en Israel akan pan rasong pik en oror, lua ta pan maurela.
28 For he will fulfill the word and decisively in righteousness, because the Lord will carry out the word decisively in the midst of the earth."
Pwe a pan kotin kairela sapwilim a dodok o kamode kila ni a pung, pwe Kaun o pan kotin wiada dok motomot nin sappa.
29 As Isaiah has said before, "Unless the Lord of hosts had left us a few survivors, we would have become like Sodom, and would have been made like Gomorrah."
O duen Iesaia masanier mas o: Ma Kaun Sepaot so nikideki ong kitail kaparapar, kitail pan dueta Sodom o Komora.
30 What shall we say then? That the non-Jews, who did not follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
Ari, da me kitail en inda duen men liki kan me sota rapaki pung, re diaradar pung, a pung eu, me tapi sang poson.
31 but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not arrive at that law.
A men Israel me inong iong kapwaiada kusoned en pung, ap sota konodi kusoned wet.
32 Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone;
Pwekida? Pweki a sota tapi sang ni poson a ni wiawia kan, pwe irail dipikelekeleki takai en dipikelekel.
33 even as it is written, "Look, I am laying in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock to trip over; and the one who believes in him will not be put to shame."
Duen a intingidier: Kilang, I pasonedi takai eu nan Sion, takai en dipikelekel eu o paip en kamakar. A me pan poson i, a sota pan sarodi.
