Romans 3
1 What then [is] the superiority of the Jew? Or what [is] the benefit of the circumcision?
Kaakano olwo Omuyudaaya alina nkizo ki? Oba okukomolebwa kugasa ki?
2 Much in every way; Chiefly indeed for for they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
Kugasa nnyo mu ngeri nnyingi. Okusookera ddala, Abayudaaya be baateresebwa ebigambo bya Katonda.
3 What for if disbelieved some? Surely not the unbelief of them the faithfulness of God will nullify?
Kituufu nti abamu ku bo tebakkiriza bigambo ebyo. Obutakkiriza bwabwe buliggyawo obwesigwa bwa Katonda, olw’okuba nga bo tebaalina kukkiriza?
4 Never would it be! should it be however God true, every now man a liar (even as *NK(o)*) it has been written: That then You may be justified in the words of You and (will prevail *N(k)O*) in judging You.
Tekisoboka. Katonda ye wa mazima, newaakubadde nga buli muntu yenna mulimba. Ebyawandiikibwa bigamba nti, “Olyoke otuukirire mu bigambo byo, era osinge bw’osala omusango.”
5 If however the unrighteousness of us God’s righteousness shows, what will we say? Surely not [is] unrighteous God who is inflicting the wrath? According to man I speak;
Naye obanga obutali butuukirivu bwaffe bulagira ddala obutuukirivu bwa Katonda, tunaayogera ki? Kikyamu Katonda okutunyiigira era n’atubonereza? Mu kino njogera ng’omuntu.
6 Never would it be! Otherwise how will judge God the world?
Nedda, sikikyamu. Katonda alisalira atya ensi omusango?
7 If (however *N(k)O*) the truth of God in my lie abounded to the glory of Him, why still also I myself also I myself as a sinner am judged?
Naye obanga obulimba bwammwe bweyongera okugulumiza Katonda, nga kiraga Katonda bw’ali ow’amazima, oyinza okwebuuza lwaki okyasalirwa omusango ng’omwonoonyi?
8 And surely even as we are denigrated and even as affirm some [that] we to say that Let us do the [things] evil that may come the good things? Their condemnation just is.
Era okyayinza okwongerako na kino nti tukolenga ebibi mulyoke muveemu ebirungi, ng’abamu bwe batuwaayiriza nti, bwe tugamba. Kyokka Katonda mwenkanya, era alibasalira nga bwe kibagwanira.
9 What then? Are we better? Not at all; We have already charged for Jews both and Greeks all under sin to be
Bino byonna bitegeeza ki? Kitegeeza nti ffe Abayudaaya tuli bulungi nnyo okusinga abantu abalala bonna? Nedda, n’akatono. Ffenna tufugibwa kibi, ne bwe baba Abayudaaya oba Abaamawanga.
10 Even as it has been written that None there is righteous not even one;
Ng’ebyawandiikibwa bwe bigamba nti: “Tewali mutuukirivu n’omu.
11 none there is who is understanding, none there is who is seeking after God;
Tewali ategeera wadde anoonya Katonda.
12 All turned away, together they became worthless; none there is (who *n*) is practicing good, not there is so much as one.
Bonna baakyama, bonna awamu baafuuka kitagasa; tewali n’omu akola obulungi, tewali n’omu.”
13 A grave opened [is] the throat of them, with the tongues of them they were practicing deceit; [the] venom of vipers [is] under the lips of them;
“Emimiro gyabwe giringa entaana ezaasaamiridde, n’emimwa gyabwe gijjudde obulimba.” “Buli kigambo ekibavaamu kiri ng’obusagwa bw’omusota.”
14 of whom the mouth of cursing and of bitterness is full.
“Emimwa gyabwe gijjudde okukolima n’obukyayi.”
15 swift [are] the feet of them to shed blood;
“Ebigere byabwe byanguwa okuyiwa omusaayi,
16 ruin and misery [are] in the paths of them;
buli gye balaga baleka abantu baayo mu kuzikirira na mu nnaku njereere.
17 and [the] way of peace not they have known.
Tebamanyi kkubo lya mirembe.”
18 Not there is fear of God before the eyes of them.
“N’okutya tebatya Katonda.”
19 We know now that as much as the law says to those under the law it speaks, so that every mouth may be stopped, and under judgment may be all the world to God.
Tumanyi nga buli kyawandiikibwa mu mateeka, kyawandiikibwa ku lw’abo abafugibwa amateeka. Amateeka malambulukufu ku nsonga ezo, omuntu yenna aleme okwekwasa ensonga yonna, ate era ne Katonda okwongera okulaga ng’ensi yonna bwe yasobya.
20 Therefore by works of [the] Law not will be justified any flesh before Him; through for [the] Law [is] knowledge of sin.
Kubanga tewali n’omu aliweebwa obutuukirivu mu maaso ga Katonda olw’ebikolwa by’amateeka. Mu mateeka mwe tutegeerera ddala ekibi.
21 Now however apart from law [the] righteousness of God has been revealed being borne witness to by the Law and the Prophets,
Kale kaakano tutegeere ng’obutuukirivu bwa Katonda tebutuweebwa lwa kugondera Mateeka. Ekyo kikakasibwa Amateeka ne bannabbi.
22 [the] righteousness now of God through faith from Jesus Christ toward all (and upon all *K*) those believing; Not for there is distinction.
Obutuukirivu bwa Katonda butuweebwa olw’okukkiriza Yesu Kristo. Katonda tasosola.
23 All for have sinned and they fall short of the glory of God
Ffenna twayonoona era tetusaanira kitiibwa kya Katonda.
24 being justified freely by the of Him grace through the redemption that [is] in Christ Jesus,
Kyokka twaweebwa obutuukirivu bwa buwa olw’ekisa kye ekiri mu kununulibwa okuli mu Yesu Kristo;
25 whom set forth as God a propitiation through faith in His blood for a showing forth of the righteousness of Him because of the forbearance of the having taken place beforehand sins —
Katonda yaweereza Kristo okuba omutango, bwe tukkiriza Kristo olw’omusaayi gwe yayiwa. Alaga obutuukirivu bwe mu kugumiikiriza ebibi ebyakolebwa edda, be bantu abaayonoona mu biseera biri eby’edda.
26 in the forbearance of God; for (of the *no*) showing forth the righteousness of Him in the present time for to be Him just and justifying the [one] of faith of Jesus.
Kino kiraga Katonda bw’alaga okwaniriza kw’alina eri abantu mu biro bino, bwe baba n’okukkiriza mu Yesu.
27 Where then [is] the boasting? It has been excluded. Through what principle? That of works? No, but through [the] principle of faith.
Kale lwaki twenyumiriza? Tewali nsonga etwenyumirizisa. Lwa kuba nga twagoberera amateeka? Nedda, lwa kukkiriza.
28 We reckon (therefore *N(k)O*) to be justified by faith a man apart from works of the Law.
Noolwekyo omuntu aweebwa obutuukirivu lwa kukkiriza so si lwa kugoberera mateeka.
29 Or of Jews [is He] the God only, surely [is] (now *k*) also of Gentiles? Yes also of Gentiles,
Oba Katonda wa Bayudaaya bokka? Si ye Katonda w’amawanga amalala gonna? Weewaawo nabo Katonda waabwe.
30 (if indeed if indeed *N(k)O*) One God [is] who will justify [the] circumcision by faith and [the] uncircumcision through the [same] faith.
Kubanga ye Katonda omu awa obutuukirivu abaakomolebwa, n’abo abataakomolebwa olw’okukkiriza kwabwe.
31 Law then do we nullify through faith? Never would it be! Instead law we uphold.
Kale amateeka tugaggyewo olw’okukkiriza? Kikafuuwe. Tunyweza manyweze.
