< Romans 1 >
1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God,
I Paoly, fetrek’oro’ Iesoà Norizañey, kinanjy ho Firàheñe, navaheñe ho ami’ty talili-soan’Añahare
2 which he promised beforehand by his prophets in the holy scriptures,
nampitamà’e taolo amo mpitoki’ i Sokitse Masiñeio
3 concerning his Son who was a descendant of David according to the flesh.
ty amy Ana’e nasama’ ty tarira’ i Davide ami’ty nofotse,
4 Through the Spirit of holiness he was declared with power to be the Son of God by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord.
niventeñe amy Arofo Masiñey te Anan’ Añahare an-kaozarañe ami’ty fivañona’e an-kavilasy, i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey.
5 Through him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations, for the sake of his name.
Ie ty nandrambesantika hasoa naho ty maha Firahe’e hinday o kilakila ondatio hivohotse am-patokisañe.
6 Among these nations, you also have been called to belong to Jesus Christ.
Hirik’ am’iareo ka ro nikanjia’ Iesoà Norizañey anahareo.
7 This letter is to all who are in Rome, the beloved of God, who are called to be holy people. May grace be to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ry hene kokoan’ Añahare e Roma nikanjieñe ho noro’eo: Hasoa ama’ areo naho ty fañanintsin’ Añahare Raentika naho i Talè Iesoà Norizañey.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
Valoha’e, andriañeko t’i Andrianañahareko añam’ Iesoà Norizañey ty ama’ areo iaby, te saontsieñe tok’ aia tok’aia an-tane atoy ty fatokisa’ areo.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, of how continually I make mention of you.
I Andrianañahare toroñeko an-troko amy talili-soa’ i Ana’eiy ro valolombeloko te tsy apoko ty fitiahiañ’ anahareo
10 I always request in my prayers that by any means I may at last be successful now by the will of God in coming to you.
amo filolohakoo, mitolon-kalaly, he mete henaneo, he añe, t’ie ho nañeneke ty liako mb’ ama’ areo mb’eo naho satrin’ Añahare.
11 For I desire to see you, that I may give you some spiritual gift, in order to strengthen you.
Salalaeko te hahatrea anahareo, handivako ravoravon’ arofo hampaozatse—
12 That is, I long to be mutually encouraged among you, through each other's faith, yours and mine.
soa t’ie hohòeñe mindre ama’ areo, songa ty amy fatokisa’ey, inahareo naho izaho.
13 Now I do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, that I often intended to come to you, (but I was hindered until now), in order to have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the rest of the Gentiles.
Tsy teako tsy ho fohi’areo, ry roahalahy, te beteke nisafirieko ty hionjomb’ama’ areo mb’eo (fe mbe tsy nanjo lalañe) soa t’ie hanam-bokatse manahake amo kilakila ondaty ila’eo.
14 I am a debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
Anaña’ o Grikao naho o renetaneo naho o mahilalao vaho o tsy mahilalao songo iraho.
15 So, as for me, I am ready to proclaim the gospel also to you who are in Rome.
Rototse ka iraho hitaroñe i talili-soay e Roma ao.
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and for the Greek.
Tsy mahasalatse ahy i Talili-soay, amy t’ie ty haozaran’ Añahare maharombake ze hene mahafiato, o Jiosio hey, vaho o Grikao.
17 For in it God's righteousness is revealed from faith to faith, as it has been written, “The righteous will live by faith.”
Ie ty andrendrehañe ty havantañan’ Añahare, am-patokisañe ampitomboam-patokisañe; fa pinatetse te: Fatokisañe ty hiveloma’ o vantañeo.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people, who through unrighteousness hold back the truth.
Toe miboak’ andindìñe ey ty haviñeran’ Añahare amy ze fonga hatsivokarañe naho tsy havañona’ ondaty manindry ty hato ami’ty halo-tsereha’e,
19 This is because that which is known about God is visible to them. For God has enlightened them.
fa malange am’ iereo ze mete ho fohiñe aman’ Añahare, fa nampalangesan’ Añahare.
20 For his invisible qualities, namely his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. (aïdios )
Toe midodea boak’ ami’ty namboareñe ty voatse toy o sata’e tsi-isakeo, ty haozara’e tsy modo, naho t’ie Andrianamboatse, rendreke amo namboareñeo, tole ndra tsy aman-kaveroke iereo. (aïdios )
21 This is because, although they knew about God, they did not glorify him as God, nor did they give him thanks. Instead, they became foolish in their thoughts, and their senseless hearts were darkened.
Aa ndra t’ie mahafohiñe i Andrianamboatse, tsy andrengea’e ho Andrianañahare, tsy mañandriañe, vaho miha-tsi-vente’e ty fivetsevetse’ iareo, mbore mihamaieñe o tro-gege’ iareoo.
22 They claimed to be wise, but they became foolish.
Mihaboke hihitse te mone miha-dagola,
23 They exchanged the glory of the imperishable God for the likenesses of an image of perishable man, of birds, of four-footed beasts, and of creeping things.
soloa’e sare-ondaty mora momoke, naho voroñe naho biby aman-tombok’ efatse vaho biby milaly, ty engen’ Añahare tsi-modo.
24 Therefore God gave them over to the lusts of their hearts for uncleanness, for their bodies to be dishonored among themselves.
Aa le adòn’ Añahare amo draon-tro’ iareoo ho ami’ty haleorañe hifaniva vatañe.
25 It is they who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and who worshiped and served the creation instead of the Creator, who is praised forever. Amen. (aiōn )
Atakalo’ iareo vande ty hatòn’ Añahare vaho mitalaho naho mitoroñe amo namboareñeo, fa tsy aman’ Andrianamboatse—I rengèñe nainai’ey. Amena. (aiōn )
26 Because of this, God gave them over to dishonorable passions, for their women exchanged natural relations for those that were unnatural.
Izay ty ampipohan’Añahare am-pipaiañe faly iareo: hatsalo’ o roakemba’ iareoo sata tsy fanoeñe amo fiolorañe mahitio;
27 Likewise, the men also left their natural relations with women and burned in their lust for one another. These were men who committed shameless acts with men and received in themselves the penalty they deserved for their error.
naho ado’ o lahilahio ty fiolorañe vantañe aman’ ampela hiforehetse hifampipay; ie manao haloloañe aman-dahilahy ty lahilahy, vaho rambese’e am-batañe ty toly mañeva o hakeo’eo.
28 Because they did not approve of having God in their awareness, he gave them up to a depraved mind, for them to do those things that are not proper.
Aa kanao tsy sazò’ iareo ty hitambozòtse ami’ty faharendrehañe an’ Andrianañahare, le adon’ Añahare ami’ty fitsakoreañe mengoke, hanao raha tsy fanoeñe;
29 They have been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, and malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and evil intentions. They are gossips,
ie lifo-katsivokarañe, halò-tserehañe, fatitimena, helo-tro, fihàñañe, fañohoan-doza, fifanointoiñañe, famañahiañe, hasiahañe vaho fibisibisihañe;
30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventing ways of doing evil; they are disobedient to parents.
mpidramotse, mpalaiñe an’ Andrianañahare, mpiteratera, mpibohaboha naho mpirengevoke; mpikitro-draty vaho mpanjeha-drae.
31 They are senseless, faithless, heartless, and unmerciful.
Ie tsy aman-kilala, mpivalik’am-pañina, tsy mahafikoko vaho po-fiferenaiñañe.
32 They understand the regulations of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death. But not only do they do these things, they also approve of others who do them.
Ndra t’ie mahafohiñe ty havantañan’ Añahare tsy apota’e te mañeva havetrake ty manao i tsaraeñey, le tsy vaho anoe’e, fa onjone’ iereo o mpanao irezaio.
