< Romans 1 >
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, set apart to preach the gospel of God,
Bulus vren koh Yesu Almasihu, wa ba you aye, kma tie ndji u toh ndu, wa ba chu zi kan nitu tre Irji.
2 which he had promised before by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures,
Wa i hi tre wa a chu nyu ni sen mu ni bi toh ndu ma ni tsatsraka ibe ma.
3 the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh,
Ahe ni tu vren ma, wa ba ngrji'u ni kutra kahlan Dauda ni kpa.
4 and shown with power to be the Son of God as to his spirit of holiness, by the resurrection of the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord;
Ni Brji ndindima u suron ndindi, wa a lunde ni mi be bak tsro da Vren Irji ni gbengblen Ibrji ndindi u bi wa ba he kiklan suron u Yesu Almasihu Bachi mbu
5 through whom we received grace and the office of an apostle in behalf of his name, in order to produce obedience to the faith among all nations;
Ni tuma ki kpa ndindi ni toh ndu nitu kpa nyime u ndindi nimi bi korah wawu'u, nitu inde ma u ndindi.
6 among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ;
Ni mi bi kora kwa, bi yi me ba you yi hi ni Yesu Almasihu.
7 to all the beloved of God at Rome, called, holy: Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Lbe i ahi u bi wawu'u bi wa bi he ni mi Roman, wa Irji ni son ba, wa ba you ndji mba ndi tsarkaku. Du ndindi ni sun si rji ni Irji Bachi Iti mbu, ni Bachi Yesu Almasihu.
8 In the first place, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
Ikpe u mumla misi ngyiri ni Irji mu ni tu Yesu Almasihu nitu bi wawu'u, don naki basi tre nitu njanji bi ni gbungblu wawu'u.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how constantly I make mention of you, always in my prayers
Don Irji wawu yi toh me, wa misi tie ndu ma ni mi Ruhu mu ni tre Vren Ma, wa mi you nde bi chachu'u.
10 supplicating that, if it be possible, I may at last through the will of God be favored with an opportunity of coming to you.
Mi nji yi mu ni bre chachu'u du me toh koh wa mi ye u Hellinawa.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, which may be for your confirmation;
Nakima Irji na hi u tara na.
12 that is, that I may be edified among you, and you also, through each other's faith, both yours and mine.
Ni biwa ba lah tre ni tron na, ba kwu ba tare da tron na, ni bi wa ba lah tre ni mi tron, ba hukunta ba nitu tron.
13 But I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I often purposed to come to you, though I have been hindered hitherto, that I might have some fruit of my labors among you also, as among the other gentiles.
Naki ma ana biwa ba wo tron, ana baba bi ndindi u Irji na, naki bi ti, ba kpa ba chuwo.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.
Bi kora wa bana toh tron na, nitu da bia bati kpi wa ahi u tron.
15 So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.
Nakima ba tsro ndi idu ni tron ani wa han ni suron ba, imre ba ni bla, ri mre ba ni chan ba ko ani ka'aba. Nakima ni Irji wa i ni ti ni vie wa Irji ni bla asiri wa he riri u bi he ni mi Roma
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for to every believer, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, it is the power of God unto salvation.
Nakima isha na time na, dume hla tre na, don kima hi gbengblen Irji don kpachuwo wa bi wa ba kpa nyime, bi mumla Yahudawa u Halleniyawa.
17 For therein is revealed the righteousness which is of God from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
Naki nimi ma ndindi Irji ka tsro u njanji hi ni njanji, na ba nha zi, ndji u ndindi ani sun nitu njanji.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and unrighteousness of men, who keep down the truth in unrighteousness.
Nakima infu Irji a tsro rji ni shu nitu bi wa bana hu nkon ni ndindi u mri Adamu bi wa ba chan njanji nitu njanji na he ni bana.
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest within them; for God made it manifest to them.
Nakima, ikpe wa a mla duba toh ni Irji ahe ni rira me nitu mba Naki ma Irji a tsro ba wawu hi zahiri.
20 For, ever since the creation of the world, his invisible attributes, even his eternal power and divinity, being perceived from his works, are clearly seen, so that they might be without excuse. (aïdios )
Nakima idu ma wa bana ya toh na a ni rira ba he tu ni nton wa ati gbungblu'a. Ba ya toh ba nitu ikpi bi wa ati'a. Ikpi bi yi baba ba ikoma u kakle ni Allahtakarsa. Nakima indji bi bana he ni sen nyu na. (aïdios )
21 Because though they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful to him; but became perverse in their reasonings, and their senseless minds were darkened;
Nakima ba ndji ba toh Irji, aman bana no ninkon u matsayi Irji na, ko duba tsro ingyiri. Nakima ba kma ti ruru ni mi mre mba. Imre u suron mba hi u bu.
22 professing to be wise, they became fools,
Ba ban tumba na bi wa ba toh, aman se ba kma tie ruru.
23 and for the glory of the incorruptible God they substituted images of corruptible man, and of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
Ba sran ninkon Irji u kakle ni kpi wa bana kakle ana na indji, cicen ni na nma bi zizia ni biwa ba nha ni ne.
24 Wherefore God also gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to debase their bodies with one another;
Nakima Irji ka ban no sha'awa pipi suron mba ba ti kpa yah.
25 because they changed the true God for false gods, and adored and worshipped created things rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn )
Baba yi ba sran njanji Irji ni che, ba si tie sujada ni bauta ni kpe wa ba tie ba ni wo, maimako wa ati ta, wa a mla zu nde kakle. (aiōn )
26 For this cause God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women indulged in unnatural lust,
Nakima Irji ban ba no sha'awoyi u ti fa ba iyah har mbah ba kasran kaida jima hi mbah ni mbah.
27 and in like manner the men also, neglecting the natural use of the female, burned with lust for one another, men with men practising that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due recompense of their error.
Lilon ba bame ba sran kaida jimai u lilon ni mbah hi ni lilon ni lilon ba si tie ndu fa. Lilon ba kru ni lilon nda ni tie kpi u chi basi chan sakamako indu mba u chi.
28 And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do things which are shameful;
Nakima bana kpa nyime ni Irji na ni mi duba, Irji ban ba no ni kpa risu ni mre mba, basi tie meme kpi biyi.
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, malice, covetousness, wickedness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; backbiters,
Ba shu ni rashi ndindi, meme kyashi, keta, tigu, wudi, wa-nyu, makirci, ni meme mre.
30 slanderers, hated of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of mischief, disobedient to parents,
Bi ti pre, kage, bi wa bana son Irji na. Bi wa bana son sun si na, bi santu, ni bi gla, bi ha meme che, ni bi wa bana hu/wo ba ti/yi mba.
31 senseless, faithless, without natural affection, without pity;
Biwa isuron mba tsro pipi me, biri amana biwa bana he ni son na, bi wa bana he ni lo suron na.
32 who, although knowing the ordinance of God, that they who practise such things deserve death, not only do them themselves, but approve of those who do them.
Ba toh tsari Irji tre bi wa bati ikpi baki, ba mla kwu, ana ti kpi ni kangrji na, hra ba hu gon biwa bati ba.
