Romans 16
1 [By means of this letter] I am introducing and recommending to you our fellow believer Phoebe, [who will be taking this letter to you]. She is a deacon in the congregation in Cenchrea [city].
Ngusaka kummanyisya kukwenu che Foibe mlumbu gwetu, jwali katumetume jwa mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito waali ku Kenkelea.
2 [I request that] you receive her because of her relationship with the Lord. [You should do that because] those who are God’s people ought to receive [their fellow believers]. [I am also requesting] that you help her [by giving her] [EUP] whatever she needs, because she has helped many people, including me.
Mumpochele kwa ligongo lya Ambuje mpela yakuti kuŵajilwa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu kupochelwa. Munkamuchisye mu yose yaikwasoŵa, pakuŵa nsyene jo nombe ŵaakamuchisye ŵajinji, ni une jwakwe.
3 Tell Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila that I (send greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. They worked with me for Christ Jesus,
Mungomachisye che Pilisila ni che Akila achikatumetume achinjangu mu masengo ga Kilisito Yesu.
4 and they were even willing to die [IDM] in order [to save] my life. It is not only I who thank them [for helping me], but the people in all [HYP] the non-Jewish congregations also [thank them for saving my life].
Ŵanyawo ŵautyosisye umi wao kwa ligongo lyangu. Ngwatogolela, ngaŵa une jika pe nambo ni mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito jose ja ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi, nombewo akwatogolela.
5 Also tell the congregation [that meets] in their house that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. Tell my dear friend Epaenetus the same thing. He is the first man in Asia [province] who [believed] in Christ.
Sooni mungomachisye mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wakusongangana mu nyuumba jao. Mungomachisye mmbusanga jwangu jungunnonyela che Epaineto juŵaliji jwandanda kwakulupilila Kilisito ku chilambo cha Asia.

7 Tell the same thing to Andronicus and [his wife] Junia (OR, and [his sister] Junia) who are my fellow Jews and who were also [previously] in prison with me. They are well-known/respected (OR, respected by the) apostles, and they became Christians before I did.
Mungomachisye che Andiloniko ni che Yunia, Ŵayahudi achinjangu ŵaŵataŵikwe mu nyuumba jakutaŵilwa pamo ni une. Ŵanyawo akumanyika nnope pasikati ja achinduna, nombewo ŵanongolele une kuŵa Ŵakilisito.

9 I also send my greetings to Urbanus, who works for Christ with us, and to my dear friend Stachys.
Mungomachisye che Ulubano katumetume njetu pa masengo ga Kilisito ni che Sitakisi mmbusanga jwangu jungunnonyela.
10 I also send my greetings to Apelles, whom Christ has approved [because Apelles successfully endured trials]. Tell the [believers] who [live in the house] of Aristobulus that I send my greetings to them.
Mungomachisye che Apele pakuŵa alosisye chikulupichiko chakwe kwa Kilisito. Mungomachisye ŵandu wose ŵakutama mu nyuumba ji che Alisitabulo.
11 Also tell Herodion, who is my fellow Jew, that I send my greetings to him. Tell the same thing to those who [live in the house] of Narcissus who belong to the Lord.
Mungomachisye che Helodiana, myahudi njangu. Mungomachisye mpingo wa ŵandu wose ŵakunkulupilila Ambuje ŵakutama mu nyuumba ji che Nalikisi.
12 Tell the same thing to Tryphaena and [her sister] Tryphosa, who work hard for the Lord. I also send my greetings to Persis. [We all] love her and she has worked very hard for the Lord.

13 Tell Rufus, who is an outstanding Christian, that I send my greetings to him. [Tell the same thing to] his mother, [who has treated me as though] I [were her son] [MET].
Mungomachisye che Lufo mundu juŵasagulikwe kwatumichila Ambuje ni achikulugwe jwaali nti achikulu ŵangu none.
14 Tell Asyncritus and Phlegon and Hermes and Patrobas and Hermas and the fellow believers who [meet] with them that I am sending my greetings to them.

15 I also send my greetings to Philologus, to [his wife] Julia (OR, [his sister] Julia), to Nereus and his sister, and to Olympas, and to all God’s people who [meet] with them.
Mungomachisye che Filologo ni che Yulia ni che Neleo ni nlumbugwe ni che Olimpa ni ŵandu wose ŵa Akunnungu ŵakutama nawo.
16 Greet one another affectionately, but in a pure way, [when you gather together]. The [believers in] all the Christian congregations [HYP] [in this area (send their] greetings to/say they are thinking fondly of) you.
Nkomasyane jwine ni jwine kwa unonyelo wa chikilisito. Mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito jose jikunkomasya ŵanyamwe.
17 My fellow believers, I exhort you that you beware of those people who are causing divisions among you and who cause people to turn away [from God] [MTY] [because they teach things that] are contrary to the message [about Christ] that you have learned (OR, that others taught you). Keep away from such people!
Ngunchondelela, achalongo achinjangu, mwalosye pangasisika ŵakwikanawo utinda ni kwatendekasya ŵandu ŵane aleche kugakamula majiganyo gaŵapochele. Nlisepusye nawo.
18 They do not serve our Lord Christ! On the contrary, they only want to satisfy their own desires [MTY]! Also, by all the eloquent things that they say [DOU] they deceive those people who do not realize [that their teaching is false].
Pakuŵa ŵandu ŵanti yeleyo ngakuntumichila Kilisito Ambuje ŵetu, nambo akugatumichila matuumbo gao achinsyene. Sooni kwa maloŵe gao gakooloŵa ni gagakunyenga, akwalambusya ŵandu ŵambone.
19 [Believers] everywhere know that you have paid attention to [the good message about Christ], with the result that I rejoice about you. But I also want you to be wise, [with the result that you do] what is good. I also want you to avoid doing what is evil.
Ŵandu wose akumanyilila inkuti pakumpilikanichisya Ambuje, ni kwa ligongo li ngusengwa liŵamba lyenu. Nambo ngusaka ŵanyamwe mme ŵa lunda kwa kupanganya yambone, ni mme ŵangali ileŵo mu indu yangalumbana.
20 [If you avoid people who teach what is false], what will [soon happen] [MET] [will be as though] God, who causes us to be peaceful, will be crushing Satan under your feet! [I pray that] our Lord Jesus will continue to act kindly towards you.
Akunnungu ŵakwikanawo chitendewele ngaakaŵa kunliŵatila Shetani paasi pa makongolo genu. Umbone wa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito uŵe pamo ni ŵanyamwe.
21 Timothy, who works with me, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, who are my fellow Jews, [want you to know that they are] (sending their greetings to/thinking fondly of) you.
Che Timoseo katumetume njangu akunkomasya. Iyoyo peyo che Lukio ni che Yasoni ni che Sosipateli ŵaali Ŵayahudi achinjangu akunkomasya.
22 I, Tertius, [one who belongs to] the Lord, [also want you to know] that I am (sending my greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. [I am writing this letter as Paul tells me what to write for him].
None che Telitio, jungulemba chikalata chi che Paolo chi, ngunkomasya mu liina lya Ambuje.
23 I, [Paul], am staying in the house of Gaius, and the whole congregation [here meets] in his house. He [also wants you to know] that he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Erastus, the treasurer of [this] city, also [wants you to know that] he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Our fellow believer Quartus also (sends his greetings to you./says he is thinking fondly of you.)
Che Gayo, juŵambochele une ni juŵaupochele mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ŵakusongangana kukwakwe akunkomasya. Che Elasto jwakugosa mbiya sya musi wu pamo ni nlongo njetu che Kwalito akunkomasya.
Umbone wa Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito uŵe pamo ni ŵanyamwe wose. Eloo!
25 As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
Sambano Akunnungu akuswe! Ŵelewo akukombola kunlimbisya mu chikulupi malinga ni Ngani Jambone jingulalichila ji yankati Che Yesu Kilisito, ni malinga ni uunukuko wa usyene uwaliji usisikwe chitandile kalakala. (aiōnios g166)
26 but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
Nambo sambano usyene wo uunukulikwe kwa litala lya malembelo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu. Ni kwa makanyo ga Akunnungu wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi umanyiche kwa ngosyo syose kuti ŵandu akombole kwakulupilila ni kwajitichisya. (aiōnios g166)
27 [I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Nipele, kwa Akunnungu jika pe, ŵakwete lunda lose, upagwe ukulu kukwakwe kwa litala lya Che Yesu Kilisito, moŵa gose pangali mbesi ni moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Eloo! (aiōn g165)
