Romans 10
1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they may be saved.
Bakwesu, nchindiyanda mumoyo wangu akumukombelezya kuli Leza, ndufutuko lwako.
2 For I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
Nkambo ndilabukamboni atala ambabo bwakuti baliabusungu kuli Leza, pesi butali bwakuluzibo.
3 For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.
Nkambo nchibakachilwa kumvwisisya bululami buzwa kwa Leza pele balikuyandula kutuchitila bululami bwabo beni, aboobo bakachilwa kulifwinsya kubululami bwa Leza.
4 For Christ [is] the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
Nkambo Kkilisito ngonguwe uzuzikizya mulawu wabalulami bwabo boonse basyoma.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is by the law, That the man who doeth these things shall live by them.
Nkambo Mozesi ulalemba atala abululami obo buzwa kumulawu: “mwalumi uchita bululami bwamulawu uyobuponena bululami obo.”
6 But the righteousness which is by faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down.)
Pele bululami obo buzwa kulusyomo mbwamba obo: “mutaambi mumyoyo yanu kuti ngwani uyotanta kujulu? (ikuti, akeete Kkilisitu aansi)
7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring Christ again from the dead.) (Abyssos g12)
; aboobo utambi kuti ngwani uyoselukila kubusena busiya (nkokuti akeete Kkilisitu kuzwa kubafu). (Abyssos g12)
8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach:
Pesi chambanzi? “ijwi lili afwifwi anduwe lilimumulomo wako amumoyo wako” eli ndijwi lyalusyomo, eli ndijwi lyalusyomo elyo nditukambawuka.
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thy heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Nkambo kumulomo wako kulazumina kuti Jesu ngu Mwami, akusyoma kumoyo wako kuti Leza wakakubusya kuzwa kubafu, uyofutulwa.
10 For with the heart man believeth to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.
Nkambo kumoyo omwe kulasyomwa kuti kube bululami alimwi kumulomo omwe kulazuminikwa kuti kube lufutuko.
11 For the scripture saith, whoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Nkambo malembe alamba kuti, “koonse kusyoma mulinguwe wonse tayowusigwa nsoni”
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all, is rich to all that call upon him,
Nkambo takw ekusiyana akati kama Juda ama Giliki nkambo Mwami wabo nguMwami waboonse alubo ulabuvubi kuli abo bamwita.
13 For whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Pele boonse bayita zina lyakwe Mwami bayofutulwa.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
Bamwi bamwiite biyeni oyo ngubatasyomi? Bamusyome biyeni oyo ngubatana kumvwa? Bamvwe biyeni katakwe katakwe sikukambawuka? Bakambawuke biyeni kuti tebatumwa?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things?
Mbubonya mbukulembedwe, “abota mawulu ababo bakambawuka makani mabotu!
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
Pesi tensi boonse baswilila makani mabotu. Nkambo Isaya ulamba, “Mwami ngwani wakasyoma mulumbe wesu?”
17 So then, faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Aboobo lusyomo lulazwa kukumvwa, alimwi kumvwa ijwi lyaKkilisitu.
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
Pesi ndamba, “tebakamvwa na?” Iyii, mbubonya bangelo lwabo bakanjila munyika yoonse, alimwi majwi abo kumagolelo anyika”
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First, Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by [them that are] no people, [and] by a foolish nation I will anger you.
Kukuyungizya ndaamba, “Izilayeli takazi na? “Lutanzi Mozesi wamba kuti, “njokusungilizya kubuzuba azitali chisi. Anzila yachisi chitakwe kumvwisisisya, alimwi njokukopakopa kusikila ukanyeme”.
20 But Isaiah is very bold, and saith, I was found by them that sought me not; I was made manifest to them that asked not for me.
Alimwi Izaya ulamba chabukozu kuti, ndakajanwa ababo bakatandiyandula. “Ndakaboneka kuli abo batakandikumbila”
21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Pesi kuli Izilayeli uwambakuti, “izuba lyoonse ndakatambika maanza angu kulibataswilili akubantu bataswilili”.
