< Romans 1 >
1 [I], Paul, who serve Christ Jesus, [am writing this letter]. God chose me to be an apostle, and I was appointed by him {he appointed me} in order that [I should proclaim] (the good message/the gospel) that [comes from him].
PAVLEC Iesus Christen cerbitzariac Apostolu içatera deithuac, Iaincoaren Euangelioaren predicatzeco bereciac.
2 Long before [Jesus came to earth, God] promised [that he would reveal] this good message by means of what his prophets [wrote] in the sacred Scriptures.
(Cein lehendanic bere Prophetéz Scriptura sainduetan Iaincoac promettatu vkan baitzuen)
3 This good message is [about the one whom we know as] his Son. As to his Son’s physical/human nature, he was born a descendant of [King] David.
Bere Seme haraguiaz den becembatean Dauid-en hacitic eguinaz,
4 As to his divine nature, it was shown {[God] showed} powerfully that he is (God’s own Son/the man who is also God). [God] showed this by his Holy Spirit causing him to become alive again after he died. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.
Sanctificationetaco Spirituaz den becembatean hiletarico resuscitatzez Iaincoaren Seme botheretsuqui declaratuaz, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaz:
5 He is the one who appointed me, who did not deserve it, [to be] an apostle. He did that in order that [many] among the non-Jews would honor [him] and would obey him as a result of their believing [my message about him].
Ceinaganic recebitu baitugu gratia eta Apostolutassuna fedea obedi dadinçát, Gentil guciac baithan haren icenean:
6 You [believers] who are living in Rome [city] are included among those whom God has chosen to belong to Jesus Christ.
Ceinén artean çuec-ere deithu içan baitzarete Iesus Christgana.
7 [I am writing this letter] to all of [you in Rome] whom God loves and whom he has chosen [to become his] people. [I pray that] God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord will [continue to] act kindly toward you and [will continue to] cause you to have [inner] peace.

8 As I begin [this letter], I thank my God for all you [believers in Rome]. It is because of [what] Jesus Christ [has done for us that] I [am able to do that]. I thank him because your trusting [in Jesus Christ] is something that people all over [the Roman Empire] [HYP] are talking about.

9 God, whom I devotedly serve as I [proclaim to people] the gospel concerning his Son, knows that I tell the truth when I say that I always mention you whenever [DOU] I pray [to God] [HYP].
Ecen Iaincoa dut testimonio (cein cerbitzatzen baitut neure spirituan bere Semearen Euangelioan) ecen paussu gabe çueçaz memorio eguiten dudala:
10 I especially ask God that if he desires [me to visit you], somehow at last I shall be able to do so.
Bethiere neure orationetan othoitz eguinez, baldin cerbait maneraz noizpait-ere bide moldezcoric eman badaquit Iaincoaren vorondatez, çuetara ethor nadin.
11 [I pray this] because I long to visit you to help you spiritually, in order that you will become stronger [spiritually].
Ecen çuen ikusteco desir handia dut, cembeit dohain spirituál parti dieçaçuedançát, çuen confirmatzeco:
12 I long to visit you in order that you and I might encourage each other [by means of our sharing with each other] how each of us trusts [in Jesus].
Erran nahi dut, çuen eta ene elkarrequilaco fedeaz consola nadinçát.
13 My fellow believers, many times I planned to visit you. I certainly want you to know [LIT] that. [But I have not been able to come to you because] I have been hindered {[things] have always prevented me} until the present time. I have wanted to come in order that I might help you to mature spiritually [IDM], as [I have helped people to mature spiritually] in many other non-Jewish groups [HYP].
Eztut bada nahi ignora deçaçuen, anayeác, ecen anhitzetan çuetara ethortera deliberatu dudala (baina empatchatu içan naiz oraindrano) cembeit fructu nuençát çuetan-ere, berce Gentiletan-ere beçala.
14 I feel obliged [to proclaim the gospel to all non-Jewish people], specifically to [people who know] the Greek [language and culture] and to those who do not know it, to people who are educated and to those who are uneducated.
Çordun naiz hambat Grecoetara nola Barbaroetara, hambat çuhurretara nola ignorantetara.
15 So what I have eagerly desired is that I might proclaim this good message to you who are living in Rome also.
Bada, nitan den becembatean prest naiz çuey Roman çaretenoy-ere euangelizatzera.
16 [That leads me to say that] I very confidently proclaim [LIT] the good message [about what Christ has done], because this good message is the powerful [means] that God [uses] to save [from the guilt of their sins] all people who trust [in what Christ has done for them]. Specifically, God first has saved the Jews [who believe the good message], and then he has saved non-Jews.
Ecen eznaiz ahalque Christen Euangelioaz: ceren Iaincoaren botherea baita, sinhesten duen guciaren saluamendutan, Iuduaren lehenic eta guero Grecoaren.
17 By means of this good message God reveals how he erases the record of people’s sins (OR, declares people no longer guilty for having sinned); and his doing this is entirely because [IDM] they trust [in Christ. This is confirmed] by what [a prophet long ago] wrote [that God said], “Those (whose record of sin [I] have erased/whom [I] have declared no longer guilty for sin) because they trust [in me] will live [forever].”
Ecen Iaincoaren iustitiá hartan eracusten da fedetic federa: scribatua den beçala, Iustoa fedez vicico da.
18 From [where God rules in] heaven he is making it clear to all [non-Jewish] people who show no respect for God and who do wicked things, that he is angry with them [and that they deserve to be punished] {[that he would punish them]} [MTY]. By means of [their behaving] wickedly, they keep other people [from believing what they know] to be true [about God].
Ecen Iaincoaren hirá claroqui eracusten da cerutic, eguiá iniustitiatan daducaten guiçonén infidelitate eta iniustitia ororen contra:
19 [Everyone] can clearly know what God [is like], because God himself has revealed to everyone [what he is like].
Ceren Iaincoaz eçagut ahal daitena manifest baita hetan: ecen Iaincoac hæy manifestatu vkan draue.
20 [People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios )
Ecen haren gauça inuisibleac (hala nola haren bothere eternala eta diuinitatea) munduaren creationetic ikusten dirade, gauça creatu hautaric consideratzen diradenean: excusa gabe diradençát. (aïdios )
21 Although [the non-Jews] knew what God [is like], they did not honor him as God, nor did they thank [him for what he had done]. But instead, they began to think foolish [things about him], and they became unable to understand [MET] [what he wanted them to know].
Ceren Iaincoa eçagutu vkan dutenaren gainean, ezpaitute Iainco beçala glorificatu, ez regratiatu: baina vano eguin içan dirade bere discursuetan, eta hayén bihotz adimendu gabea ilhumbez bethe içan da.
22 Although they claimed that they were wise, they became foolish,
Bere buruäc çuhur eguiten cituztelaric erho eguin içan dirade.
23 and they refused to [admit that] God is glorious and will never die. Instead, they made and worshipped idols [that resembled people who] will some day die, and [then they made other idols that resembled] birds and four-footed animals, and [finally] they made idols that resembled reptiles.
Ecen cambiatu vkan duté Iainco incorruptiblearen gloriá, guiçon corruptiblearen imaginatara, eta hegaztinén, eta laur oinetaco bestién, eta herrestez ebilten diradenén imaginatara.
24 So God allowed [the non-Jews] do immoral sexual things that they [SYN] strongly desired, things [that their desires were compelling them to do]. As a result, they [began to] dishonor each other’s bodies [by their sexual actions].
Halacotz Iaincoac-ere abandonnatu vkan ditu hec berén bihotzetaco guthicietara, satsutassunera, bere gorputz propriey itsusgoa eguitera elkarren artean:
25 Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn )
Nola Iaincoaren eguiá gueçurretara cambiatu vkan baituté, eta adoratu baitituzté eta cerbitzatu creaturác, vtziric Creaçalea cein baita eternalqui benedicatua, Amen. (aiōn )
26 So, God allowed [the non-Jews to do] shameful [sexual] things that they [strongly] desired. As a result, many women did not have natural sexual relations [with their husbands] [EUP]. Instead, they were doing sexual actions with other women [EUP].
Halacotz bada abandonnatu vkan ditu Iaincoac itsusgoataco affectionetara: ecen hayén emaztec-ere cambiatu vkan duté vsança naturala natura contra denera:
27 Similarly, [many] men stopped having/did not have natural sexual relations with women [EUP]. Instead, they strongly desired to have sexual relations with other men. They committed [homosexual] acts with other men, acts that were shameful. As a result, [God has] punished them [by sicknesses] in their bodies, which is what they deserve [because] they [thought] wrongly [that God would not punish them for doing that].

28 Furthermore, because they decided that it was not [worthwhile] to know God, he allowed their own worthless thoughts [to completely control them]. As a result, they began doing [evil] things that [God says that people] should not do.
Eta nola ezpaituté conturic eguin Iaincoaren eçagutzetan eduquitera: hala abandonnatu vkan ditu Iaincoac iugemendu guciren falta den spiritu batetara: bide eztiraden gaucén eguitera:
29 They strongly desire to do all [kinds of] unrighteous [things]. They strongly desire to do all [kinds of] evil things [to others]. They strongly desire to possess things that [belong to others]. They strongly desire to harm [others] in various ways. [Many non-Jews] are constantly envying [other people. Many] constantly desire to murder [people. Many] constantly desire to cause strife [between people. Many] constantly desire to deceive [others. Many] constantly desire to speak hatefully [about others] (OR, [to speak harmful things about others, things that are not true]). [Many] gossip [about others].

30 [Many] slander [others. Many] act especially hatefully toward God. [Many] speak or act in an insulting way [toward others. Many] treat others contemptuously. [Many] boast [about themselves to others. Many] invent new ways to do evil things. [Many non-Jewish children] disobey their parents.
Rapportari, gaitzerraile, Iaincoaren gaitzesle, iniuriaçale, vrgulutsu, vantari, gaitz-erideile, aitamén desobedient:
31 [Many non-Jews] act in other morally foolish ways. [Many] do not do what they promised [others that they would do. Many] do not [even] love [their own family members. And many] do not act mercifully [toward other people].
Adimendu gabe, pactoén hautsle, affectione natural gabe, appacega ecin daitezquen beçalaco, misericordia gabe.
32 Although they know that God has declared that those who do such things deserve to be killed, they not only habitually do these [kinds of evil] things, but they also approve of others who habitually do them.
