Romans 1
1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, a called apostle, set apart to preach the gospel of God,
Ne Paulo, nembombi va Yesu Klisite yune nilaghiwe ukhusuhiwa, nukhulekhehana ne livagili lya Nguluve.
2 which he had promised before by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures,
Ele lyu livangili ililyanchoviwe khatali na vouyamalango vamwene mumbusimbe uvuvalanche.
3 the gospel concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David as to the flesh,
Nchinchova umwana va mwene, uveakholiwe mukhivumbukho ikhya Daudi khunjila eya mbili.
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;
Umwene anchoviwe ukhuta Mwana va Nguluve khuu makha ga mepo umbanche khuluvoneklulo lwa vafwele, u Yesu Klisite Dada veto.
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;
Khugendela umwene tupokhile uvupokhi wa kusuhiwa nu wedesi uwa lwidekho panie nekhe khelunga, khulitawa lya mwene.
6 among whom are ye also, the called of Jesus Christ;
Pagati pa khilunga ekhi, nayumwe mwelagiwe ukhuva va Yesu Klisite.
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.
Ikalata eye ya mwevoni yumwe mtama khu va Rumi, vagane nu Nguluve, mwaelagiwe ukhuva vanu vavalanche. Ulukhugu luve kwenu, nu lugano ukhuma kwa Dada veto na khuswambe uYesu Klisite.
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.
Mumbologolo nikhundemya uNguluve vago khwa Yesu Kliste khuliumwe mwevoni, ulwakhuva ulwedekho lulombeliliwa mukheluga vyoni.
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
Ulwakhuva u Nguluve isaidi vango, uvenikhumbombela ni numbula yango, kulimeyu ilya mwana va mwene, nduwu nitama ukhuvatambula.
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.
Daima nchoni nidova muyesayo nchago ukhuta khujela iyavenchaga ninche nive numwe khukya khulya mwe.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, which may be for your confirmation;
Ninogwa ukhuvavona, ukhuta nevape efikhogelwa fya numbula, ninche nivayilenche.
12 that is, that I may be edified among you, and you also, through each other's faith, both yours and mine.
Pwu ninogwa nekhave amakha paninie numwe, khunjila iya lwidekho lwa khila munu.
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.
Lino valukholo, saninogwa mlemwe ukhulumanya ukhuta, ukhuta imesekhe mingi nesagile ukhincha khulyume, lenosesigiwe. Nikha nogwaga lino ukuva nisekhe khulyumwe ndawuyelekhu vanu ava khilunga.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the wise and the unwise.
Nidayiwa na vayunani na vahesya, avalemale na vapelwa.
15 So, according to my ability, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also in Rome.
Ulwakhuva une nilitayari ukhulumbelela elimenyu khulimwe nayumwe mwemulekhu 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.
Ulwa khuva sanivona soni khulimeyu, ulwakhuva makha ga Nguluve ukhutopokha khukhila munu uveekhwedekha, khua vayahudi avakhwanda na khuva Yunani vope.
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.”
Ulwakhuva wayelweli wa Nguluve vuvonikhe ukhuma ulwedekho, mpauha ulwedekho, nduwuyesimbiwe, “Unya lwidikho itamaga nulwidikho.”
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all impiety and unrighteousness of men, who keep down the truth in unrighteousness.
Ulwakhuva uvuhegi wa Nguluve vuvonikhe ukhuma kukhyanya ni mbivi nuvutola nogwa woni uwa vanu, uvuvivi wifikha uwayelweli.
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest within them; for God made it manifest to them.
Ulwakhuva, goni givonekha khwa Nguluve galipavuvalafu khuvene. Ulwakhuva uNguluve owavulile.
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 g126)
Imbombo ncha mwene enchosanchi vonekha vunonu nchivile pavuvalafu ukhuma khiliwa ulimwenguni. Khikwelevekha ukhugendela ifinu ifipeliwe. Imbombo incho makha ga mwene khihumana nu vufwa uwa khukhuma kuvutegulilo wa vuNguluve. Ukhuma, avanu ava viva vanchila vulegefu. (aïdios g126)
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;
Ulwakhuva, va mayile uNguluve, savandolelage umwene khama Nguluve, savalikhusana, vavile vakhoyofu khumasage gavene, ni numbula nchavo incha vukhoyofu yaigile ekhisa.
22 professing to be wise, they became fools,
Valikhwiyilaga veuiyaluhara, vakhava vapelwa.
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.
Vakhalwandulania uvufwa wa Nguluve uvunchila vunagi khuvihwani khya munu uveanagikhe, ndiefidege, amakhanu akhayama lunde gane, ni fikhano ifikhwa fula.
24 Wherefore God also gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to debase their bodies with one another;
U Nguluve akhavalekha vakhogage uvunogwe wa numbula nchavo imbivi, emivili givo kilikubediwa.
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 g165)
Na vene vayadwile elweli ya Nguluve ukhuva vudesi, valikhwesaya nu khugevombela imiguluve igige vakhandeka upelivavo, uviekhwi mekhiwa isikhu nchoni. Amina. (aiōn g165)
26 For this cause God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women indulged in unnatural lust,
Ulwakuva, u Nguluve avalekhile vakhogage imbimbi nchavo enchiyasoni, ulwakhuva vaandulinie imbombo encha khatali vakha nchilekha incha khatali.
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.
Vulevule, avagosi vakhanchilekha imbombo nchao ncha khatali khuvehe vavo nu khuva nu vuligu khuvene vavo. Ava vagosi khuva gosi ewavombaga inchi sancho nogelanile, valikhutole ulukoto khumbombo nchavo.
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;
Ulwakhuva vabelile ukhuvanu Nguluve khuluhala lwavo, avalekhile vakhogage lyale, nchao imbivi, vavombage imbombo incho sanchinogelanile.
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, malice, covetousness, wickedness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; backbiters,
Vadigile nuvutulanogwa, uvuvivi, uvunogwe uvuvivi, vadigile uvunogwe, uvubudi, imbancha. Uvusyovi, na amasage amavivi.
30 slanderers, hated of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of mischief, disobedient to parents,
Vavo vavile vasyovi, ava khehi navi khukalalila u Nguluve. Avayambancha, amatingo, ulwiginio, avene vavombo imbivi, nu vusavikhuva dwada avahonchi vavo.
31 senseless, faithless, without natural affection, without pity;
Avene vanchila lukhala, savikhwidekha, vanchila lugano ulwa khwanda, vanchila lugano.
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.
Vanchimayile indagilo ncha Nguluve, ukhuta vala avivombo imbombo incho, vanegiwa vabudiwe. Inave vivombo imbomob incho pwu viva vikhweelehana na vavo vivomba imbo incho.
