Romans 2

1 [God will severely punish non-Jewish people who habitually do evil things, because he has clearly revealed that he is angry with them]. So, [when God judges people], he will not excuse any one of you Jews [to whom I am writing]. You [(sg)] say that [God should] punish [non-Jews for doing evil things]. But when any one of you says that, it is you yourself whom you are saying that God should punish, because you [(sg)] do [some of] the same [evil] things [that the non-Jews do].

کەواتە ئەی مرۆڤ، هیچ بیانووێکت نییە کە حوکمی کەسێکی دیکە دەدەیت، چونکە بەوەی خەڵکی پێ حوکم دەدەیت، خۆت تاوانبار دەکەیت، لەبەر ئەوەی تۆ کە حوکم دەدەیت، خۆشت هەمان شت دەکەیت.

2 We know very well that God will judge and punish fairly [non-Jewish] people who do such [evil] things.

بەڵام دەزانین حوکمی خودا ڕاستە بەسەر ئەوانەی ئەم شتانە دەکەن.

3 So, you who [say God should punish] others for doing evil things yet you do evil things yourself, (you should certainly not think that you yourself will be able to escape from being punished by God!/do you think that you yourself will be able to escape from being punished by God?) [RHQ]

کەواتە ئەی ئەو مرۆڤەی ئەوانە حوکم دەدەیت کە ئەم شتانە دەکەن و خۆشت هەمان شت دەکەیت، وا دەزانیت لە حوکمی خودا دەرباز دەبیت؟

4 And you should not say, “God is acting very tolerantly and patiently toward me, [so I do not need to stop sinning] [DOU].” (You should realize that God is acting in a kind manner [toward you] in order to encourage you [(sg)] to turn away from your sinful behavior!/Do you not realize that God is acting in a kind manner [toward you] in order to encourage you [(sg)] to turn away from your sinful behavior?) [RHQ]

یان گاڵتەت بە دەوڵەمەندی نەرمونیانی و ئارامی و پشوودرێژییەکەی دێت؟ نازانیت نەرمونیانی خودا بەرەو تۆبەکردنت دەبات؟

5 But instead, by your stubbornly refusing to turn away from your sinful behavior [DOU], you are causing [MET] God to punish you even more severely. [He will do that] at the time when he shows that he is angry and judges people fairly.

بەڵام تۆ لەبەر کەللەڕەقی و دڵی تۆبە نەکردووت، لە ڕۆژی تووڕەیی و ئاشکراکردنی حوکمی دادپەروەرانەی خودا، تووڕەیی لەسەر خۆت کۆ دەکەیتەوە.

6 God will pay back everyone according to [what they deserve for] what they have done.

خودا [پاداشتی هەر یەکێک بەگوێرەی کردارەکانی دەداتەوە.]

7 [Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios g166)

ژیانی هەتاهەتاییش بۆ ئەوانەیە کە بە دانبەخۆداگرتنەوە لە کاری چاکەدا داوای شکۆ و ڕێز و نەمری دەکەن. (aiōnios g166)

8 But some people act in a selfish way and refuse to believe that [what God says is] true, and they do the things that [God says] are wrong. [God will] punish them very severely [DOU, MTY].

بەڵام ڕق و تووڕەیی بۆ ئەوانەیە کە داوای خۆپەرستی دەکەن و ملکەچی ڕاستی نابن، بۆ ناڕەوایی ملکەچ دەبن.

9 He will cause everyone who habitually does evil deeds to suffer greatly, [with the result that they will become severely] distressed [DOU]. This certainly will happen to the Jews [who refuse to accept God’s message, because God gave them the privilege to be his special people], but it will also happen to the non-Jews.

ناخۆشی و تەنگانە بۆ هەر مرۆڤێکە کە خراپە دەکات، یەکەم جار بۆ جولەکە ئینجا بۆ ناجولەکە.

10 But [God will] greatly reward spiritually [MET, DOU] every person who habitually does good deeds. He will [certainly] do this for the Jews [because God chose them as his special people], but he will also do it for the non-Jews.

شکۆ و ڕێز و ئاشتی بۆ هەموو چاکەکارێکە، یەکەم جار بۆ جولەکە ئینجا بۆ ناجولەکە،

11 God [will do this fairly], because people’s status does not influence him.

چونکە خودا لایەنگری ناکات.

12 Although [non-Jews do not have] the laws that [God gave to Moses], all [non-Jews] who sin will be eternally separated from God. He will [not consider whether or not they knew] the laws that he [gave to Moses]. And all the [Jews] who have sinned in spite of knowing the laws that [God gave to Moses will also be punished] {[God will also punish them]}. [They will be punished for disobeying] God’s laws.

هەموو ئەوانەی کە شەریعەتیان نییە و گوناه دەکەن، بێ شەریعەت لەناودەچن، هەموو ئەوانەش کە لەژێر دەسەڵاتی شەریعەتدا گوناه دەکەن، بە شەریعەت حوکم دەدرێن،

13 [It is right for them to be punished] {[God to punish them]} [because] it is not those who [merely] know God’s laws whom he considers to be righteous. On the contrary, it is only those who continually have obeyed [all] (of [God’s] laws/of the laws that [God gave to Moses]) (whom God will consider righteous/whose record of sins God will erase).

چونکە ئەوانە لەلای خودا بێتاوان نین کە شەریعەت دەبیستن، بەڵکو ئەوانە بێتاوان دەکرێن کە کار بە شەریعەت دەکەن.

14 Whenever the non-Jews, who do not have the laws [God gave to Moses], naturally obey those laws, [they prove that] they have a law within their own minds, even though they do not have the laws [God gave to Moses].

بێگومان ئەو نەتەوانەی کە شەریعەتیان نییە، کاتێک بە شێوەیەکی سروشتی شەریعەتیان پەیڕەو کرد، ئەوانە بۆ خۆیان شەریعەتن، لەگەڵ ئەوەی شەریعەتیان نییە.

15 They show that they know in their own minds what God [commands in his] laws [MET], as each person in his very own conscience either accuses or excuses/defends himself [concerning his own behavior].

ئەوانە بەڵگەی وا نیشان دەدەن کە فەرزەکانی شەریعەت لە دڵیاندا نووسراوە، ویژدانیان لەناویاندا شایەتی دەدات، جار هەیە بیریان تاوانباریان دەکات و جاریش هەیە بەرگرییان لێ دەکات،

16 God [will punish people] at the time when he will judge them according to what they have thought and done. He will judge them [even] for the things that they have done secretly. He will judge people by [authorizing] Christ Jesus [to judge them]. This is [what I tell people when] I preach the gospel to them.

لەو ڕۆژەدا کاتێک خودا نهێنییەکانی خەڵک لە ڕێگەی عیسای مەسیحەوە حوکم دەدات، بەپێی ئەو مزگێنییەی کە من ڕایدەگەیەنم.

17 [Now I have something to say to any one of] you [Jews to whom I am writing]: You [(sg)] boast about yourself saying, “I am a Jew.” You [(sg)] trust [that God will save you because you possess] the laws [that he gave to Moses]. You boast that [you belong to] God.

بەڵام تۆ، ئەگەر بە جولەکە ناو دەبردرێیت و پشت بە شەریعەتی تەورات دەبەستیت و شانازی بە خوداوە دەکەیت؛

18 You know what God desires. Because you have been taught {[people] have taught you} [God’s] laws, you are able to know which things are right and to choose to do them.

ئەگەر خواستی ئەو دەزانیت، چی باشترینە پەسەندی دەکەیت، چونکە لە تەورات فێربوویت؛

19 You are certain that you [are able to] show [God’s truth to non-Jews], as guides [show the road] to those who are blind [MET]. You are certain that by what you say you can show God’s way to the [non-Jews who do not understand it], as a light shows the way to [those who walk in] the darkness [MET, DOU].

ئەگەر لە خۆت دڵنیایت کە ڕێبەری کوێرەکانیت و ڕووناکییت بۆ ئەوانەی لە تاریکیدان،

20 [You are certain that you] can instruct/correct [non-Jews, whom you consider] foolish [because of their not understanding God’s message]. Because you have in [God’s] laws a [written] expression of true knowledge [HEN], you are certain that you can teach [people who, being like] children, do not know [God’s truth] [MET].

فێرکاری نەزانان و مامۆستای منداڵانی، چونکە لە تەوراتدا وێنەی زانین و ڕاستیت هەیە،

21 [Since you claim that you have all these advantages because you are a Jew], (it is disgusting that you who teach other people [that they should obey the laws God gave Moses] do not [obey the laws that you] yourself teach!/why is it that you who teach other people [that they should obey the laws God gave Moses] do not [obey the laws that you] yourself teach?) [RHQ] You who preach that people should not steal things, it is disgusting that you yourself steal things! [RHQ]

جا تۆ کە خەڵکی دیکە فێر دەکەیت، ئایا خۆت فێر ناکەیت؟ تۆ کە ڕایدەگەیەنێت کە کەس دزی نەکات، ئایا خۆت دزی ناکەیت؟

22 You who command people not to have sexual relations with someone to whom they are not married, it is disgusting that you commit adultery yourself! [RHQ] You who detest idols, it is disgusting that you rob temples [where people worship idols]! [RHQ]

تۆ کە دەڵێی داوێنپیسی نەکرێت، ئایا خۆت داوێنپیسی ناکەیت؟ تۆ کە ڕقت لە بت دەبێتەوە، ئایا پەرستگاکان تاڵان ناکەیت؟

23 You who boast saying, “[I have God’s] laws,” it is disgusting that you disobey those same laws! [RHQ] As a result you are insulting God!

کە شانازی بە شەریعەتی تەوراتەوە دەکەیت، ئایا بە سەرپێچیکردنی شەریعەت سووکایەتی بە خودا ناکەیت؟

24 [You must not be like our ancestors, about whom] were written [these words in the Scriptures: ] “The non-Jews speak evil about God because of [the evil actions of] many of you [Jews].” The non-Jews say God must be a hypocrite if he condones the behavior of people like you.

وەک نووسراوە: [لەبەر ئێوە لەناو نەتەوەکاندا کفر بە ناوی خودا دەکرێت.]

25 Any one of you who [is] circumcised [to show that he belongs to God] can benefit from that if he obeys the laws [God gave to Moses]. But if you [(sg), a circumcised person], disobey [God’s] laws, [God will consider that] you who are circumcised are no better [in God’s sight] than [someone who is] not circumcised.

خەتەنەکردن سوودی دەبێت ئەگەر شەریعەت پەیڕەو بکەیت، بەڵام ئەگەر سەرپێچی شەریعەت بکەیت، ئەوا وەکو ئەوەیە کە هەر خەتەنە نەکرابیت.

26 This means that God will certainly consider that even [non-Jews who are] not circumcised can become his people if they obey the things that he commanded in his laws. [RHQ]

بۆیە ئەگەر خەتەنە نەکراو کار بە داواکارییە دروستەکانی شەریعەت بکات، ئایا خەتەنە نەکردنەکەی بە خەتەنەکردن دانانرێت؟

27 [If any one of] you disobeys God’s laws, even though [you(sg) have] the Scriptures and even though someone has circumcised you {you are circumcised} [God will punish you]. And those people who are not circumcised, but who obey God’s laws, [will declare that God is right] when he says that he will punish you.

ئیتر ئەوەی بە سروشت خەتەنە نەکراوە، بەڵام شەریعەت جێبەجێ دەکات، حوکم بەسەر تۆدا دەدات کە شەریعەتی نووسراو و خەتەنەکردنت هەیە، هەرچەندە تۆ سەرپێچی شەریعەت دەکەیت.

28 It is not those who perform rituals [to show they are God’s people] who are [true] Jews, and it is not being circumcised in their bodies [that causes God to accept them] [MTY].

ئەگەر کەسێک تەنها بە ڕواڵەت جولەکە بێت، ئەوا لە ڕاستیدا جولەکە نییە، هەروەها ئەگەر خەتەنەکردن تەنها جەستەیی بێت، ئەوا لە ڕاستیدا خەتەنەکردن نییە.

29 On the contrary, we whom [God has changed] inwardly are [true] Jews [MTY]. And [God has accepted us because we have allowed God’s] Spirit to change our hearts, not because we perform rituals. Even if [other] people will not praise us [for that change], God will praise us.

بەڵام ئەوەی لە ناخەوە جولەکە بێت، ئەوا لە ڕاستیدا جولەکەیە، هەروەها ئەگەر خەتەنەکردن تەنها بەگوێرەی شەریعەتی نووسراو ئەنجام بدرێت، ئەوا خەتەنەکردن نییە، بەڵکو خەتەنەکردنی دڵ کە لە ڕێگەی ڕۆحی پیرۆزەوەیە، خەتەنەکردنی ڕاستەقینەیە. ئەوەی ستایشی لەلای خەڵک نییە، بەڵکو لەلای خودایە.
