< Romans 10 >
1 My fellow believers, what I deeply desire and what I pray to God earnestly for is that he will save [my own people], [the Jews].
Hagi nafuhetane, nasaraheta, nagri'ma nagu'afima navenesigena Jiu vaheku'ma Anumzamofontega nunamuma nehuana, zamahokeno zamaza hanigu nentahue.
2 I declare truthfully about them that although they (zealously seek/very much want to know) God, they do not understand [how to seek/know him correctly].
Na'ankure nagra anage hu'na Israeli vahekura huama nehue, Anumzamofona antahimi'za avesi avu'avara hanavetiza nevaririzanagi, Anumzamofo antahi'zana antahi amara hu'za novaririze.
3 They did not (submit themselves to/accept) the way that God erases the record of people’s sins. They did not [want to] recognize [that way] because they wanted him to do it their own way.
Na'ankure Anumzamofo fatgo avu'avazankura nohakrazanki, zamagra'a zmavuzmavateti fatgo zmavuzmavara erifore hugahune nehu'za, Anumzamofo fatgo avu'avazamofo agorga'a nomanize.
4 They wanted God to erase the record of their sins [as a result of their obeying his laws. But] because of what Christ has done, it is no longer necessary for [people to obey] the laws [God gave Moses in order for the record of their sins to be erased]. Now God will erase the record of sins of everyone who trusts [in what Christ has done].
Na'ankure miko kasegemofona Kraisi'a emeri knare huvagarene. E'i ana agafare iza'zo Agrite'ma zamentintima hanamo'za Anumzamofo avurera fatgo vahe manigahaze.
5 In regard to [the old] way, Moses wrote [concerning people who obey God’s] laws, “It is the people who have done [perfectly] the things [that the laws require] who will gain [eternal] life by [doing] them.”
Fatgo avu'avazanku'ma Mosese kasegemo'ma hu'nea kante krente'neana, Ina ne'mo kasegemo'ma hu'nea kante fatgo avu'avazama hanimo'a, ana fatgo avu'avazanteti asimu erigahie hu'ne. (Lev-Pri 18:5)
6 But those whose record of sins God has erased as a result of their believing [in Christ] can say [to anyone] [PRS] [as Moses said], “You should not [critically] think inwardly, ‘(Someone will have to go up and enter heaven!/Who will go up and enter heaven?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go up and] bring Christ down [to bring the message of salvation to us]!
Hu'neanagi amentintiretima Anumzamofo avure'ma fatgo huno mani'zankura anage hu'ne, Iza monafinka vuno Kraisina tazahinogura avrefenkamia tamigahie hunka kagu'afina ontahio.
7 “Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos )
Hifi iza fri vahe kerifina uramino, Kraisina fripintira avreno marerigahie? (Abyssos )
8 But instead, [those who believe in Christ] [PRS] can say what [RHQ] [Moses also said], “You [(sg)] can find out about [God’s] message very easily. You can speak [MTY] about it; you can think [MTY] about it.” This is the message that we proclaim, that people must believe [in Christ].
Hu'neanagi na'ane huno hu'ne? Kemo'a tavaonka'are me'ne, e'i ana kea kagipine tumo ka'afine me'ne. (Diu-Kas 30:12-14) E'i ana kea amentinti kemofonku tagra huama nehune.
9 [This message is that] if anyone of you confesses/says publicly that Jesus is Lord, and if you [(sg)] believe that God (caused him to become alive again after he died/raised him from the dead), you will be saved {[God] will save you}.
Hagi tamagra'ma tamagipinti huama huta Jisasi'a Ramo'e nehutma, Anumzamo fripinti Jisasina azeri oti'ne huta tamagu'areti tamentinti hanageno'a, tmaguvazigahie.
10 If people believe [that Christ died and that God caused him to become alive again] [CHI], the result is that [God will erase the record of their sins]. And [for] those who state/declare publicly [that Jesus is their Lord], the result is that [God] will save them.
Na'ankure tamagu'areti tamentinti hazageno, Anumzamo'a fatgo vahere nehigeta, tamaginuti huama nehazageno, tamahokera nehe.
11 [It is written] {[Isaiah wrote]} in the Scriptures [PRS] [about the Messiah], “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
Anazankura Avontafemo'a anage hu'ne, Iza'o Agrite'ma amentinti hanimofona agaze huontegahie hu'ne. (Ais 28:16)
12 [God] treats Jews and non-Jews similarly. Because he is the same Lord for all people [who believe in him], he abundantly [blesses] all who ask him [to save them].
Na'ankure mago'zamo'a Jiu vahe'ene megi'a vahe'mokizmi amu'nonpina ruzahura osu'ne. Magoke Ramo ana mikamokizmi Rana mani'neno, Agritegama kezamatiza vahera rama'a asomu hunezmante.
13 This is [just like what the prophet Joel wrote]: “All those who ask the Lord [God] to save them will be saved {The Lord [God] will save all those who ask him to save them}.”
Na'ankure Iza'zo Ramofo agima ahesaza vahera zamaguvazigahie. (Jol 2:32)
14 [In regard to the people of Israel rejecting the gospel, some people might object by saying], (OR, [This raises another problem about the Jews]: ) “(They certainly cannot ask [Christ to save them] if they have not [first] believed [in him]!/How can they ask [Christ to help/save them] if they have not [first] believed [in him]?) [RHQ] And (they certainly cannot believe [in him] if they have not heard about him!/how can they believe [in him] if they have not heard about him?) [RHQ] And (they certainly cannot hear [about him] if someone does not preach to them [about him]!/how can they hear [about him] if someone does not preach to them [about him]?) [RHQ]
Hagi zamentintima hunontesamo'za, inankna hu'za zamaza hinogura antahigegahaze. Hagi inankna hu'za Agri agenkema ontehinesu'za zmentintia hugahaze? Hagi agenke ama huamahu vahe'ma omaninesige'za, inankna hu'za antahi amara hugahaze?
15 And those who preach to them [about Christ], (certainly cannot preach if they are not sent [by God] {if [God] does not send them} [to preach!]/how can they preach if they are not sent [by God] {if [God] does not send them} [to preach]?) [RHQ] [His sending messengers to them would be] just like it is written {like someone wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘The arrival [MTY] of those who preach the good message is wonderful!’”
Hagi kema erino ome huama hu vahe'ma humaozmante'snage'za inankna hu'za mono kea huamara hugahaze? Knare Musenkema eri'zama aza vahe'mokizmi zamagamo'a hentofaza hu'ne huno Avontafepi krente'ne. (Ais 52:7)
16 [I would reply in this way to people who say such things: God has indeed sent people to preach the message about Christ]. But not all [the people of Israel] have paid attention to the good message! [It is like what] Isaiah said [when he felt very discouraged], “Lord, it seems as if hardly anyone believed what they heard us [(exc)] preach! [RHQ]”
Hu'neanagi ana maka vahe'mo'za Knare Musenke e'ori'naze. E'inanku kasnampa ne'mo' Aisaia huno, Ramoka iza ama anankema huama'ma nehunkeno'a amentintia hugahie hu'ne? (Ais 53:1)
17 So then, [I tell you that people] are believing [in Christ] as a result of hearing [the message about him], and people are hearing [the message] as a result of [people] preaching [about] Christ!
E'ina hu'negu vahe'mo'za ke naneke nentahizageno, zamentintia erionetie. E'i anankea Kraisina Knare Musenke me'ne.
18 But [if someone were to] ask, “Have not [the people of Israel] heard [the message about God?]” [I would reply that they] certainly [have heard it]! It is like [what is written in the Psalms], [People living] all over the world [PRS, MTY] [have seen the stars], and what they indicate [about God’s character has reached people living in] the most remote places in the world [DOU]!
Hu'neanagi nagra amanage hu'na nehue. Tamage Israeli vahe'mo'za ana nanekea antahinafi? Izo zamagra antahi'naze. Anumzamofo avontafepi hu'neana, Zamagenkemo'a ama mopamofona maka kaziga vuno eno hu'ne. Zamagri kemo'a maka kokankoka vuno eno hu'ne. (Sam-Zga 19:4)
19 But [someone might ask], “[Is it true that the people of] [MTY] Israel understood [the message about Christ]?” [I would reply that certainly they understood it, but they rejected it! Remember that] Moses was the first [one who warned the people of Israel about disobeying God. He told them that God said], [You consider that] non-Jewish groups are not nations at all [CHI]. But some of them [will believe in me, and I will bless them]. Then you will envy them. I will cause you to be angry with those people whom [you Jews think] do not understand [my ways] [IRO].
Mago'ane nagra tamantahinegoe, Israeli vahe'mo'za antahinira osu'nazafi? Kotazana Mosese'a amanage huno hu'ne, Nagra megi'a vahekuke hanugenka kaniveregahane. Antahizazmi omne'nea vahekuke hanena, krimpa hegahie hu'ne. (Diu-Kas 32:21)
20 Remember also [what God] said [very] boldly to Isaiah: Non-Jews who did not (try to know/seek) me will surely find me [DOU]! I will surely reveal what I am like to those who did not ask for me!
Hagi Aisaia'a hakavetino anage hu'ne, Nagrikura nohakraza vahe'mo'za, nagefore hu'naze. Nantahi nogaza vahete Nagra'a eama huge'za nenagaze. (Ais 65:1)
21 But concerning [the people of] Israel, [Isaiah] tells [us that God said]: For a long time I have held out my arms to people who disobeyed and rebelled against me, [in order] to invite them to return to me.
Hu'neanagi Israeli vahekura amanage huno Anumzamo'a hu'ne, Nagra hakare zupa zamavarenakura nazana rutaneroanagi, ke'ni'a zamefi hunenamiza namagera nontaze hu'ne. (Ais 65:2)
