Romans 11
1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? By no means. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, [of] the tribe of Benjamin.
Huje eyanga, huje, Ongolobhe abhakhanine abhantu bhakwe? Hata hashe. Hwa huje nane ne Mwiisraeli, wa mshikolo sha Abulahamu, hwi kabela lya Benyamini.
2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
Ongolobhe zagabhakhene abhantu bhakwe abhamanye afume huwandilo. Je sagamenye izuu liyanga yenu ahusu o Eliya, jinsi sabholele Ongolobhe humwanya ye Israeli?
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thy altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
“Ogosi, bhabhagojile ankoha bhaho, bhope bhabomoye pashiputo paho. Nene nimwene esagalye, bhope bhahwaza owomi wane.”
4 But what saith the answer of God to him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.
Lakini ijibu elya Ngolobhe liyanga yenu huliwe? “Embeshele kwaajili yalini abhantu elfu saba ebho sagabhayikhomela amafu gamo Baali.”
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Hata eshi, wakati ou esalezi bhahweli bhabhasagaliye ashilile ouchaguzi wiwenee.
6 And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
Lakini kashile huweene, sehuje hwu matendo. Kashile weene sagaibhabhe nantele weene. Yeni bhasi?
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
Ahantu ambaho Eisraeli yaliehwaza, sagahajile, huje bhabha chaguliwe bhahajile, nabhamwabho bhabhehwele bhamwamu.
8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear; ) to this day.
Nashi sagasimbilwe: “Ongolobhe abhapie opepo ogwasajilwe, amaso huje bhasilole, na makutu huje bhasiyovwe, epaka sanyono eeshii.”
9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling-block, and a recompense to them:
Wope o Daudi ayanga, “Leha emeza zyabho nazibhe nyavu, tengo sehemu yaabomelee nalipizye eshisasi hwa bhene bhebho.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always.
Leha amaso gabho gabhehwe akisi huje bhagajelole. Ubhaundamishe amasana gabhowila.”
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? By no means: but [rather] through their fall salvation [is come] to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.
Basi eyanga, “Huje bhabomelee hata bhagwile egajebhe?” Esho na mwaha. Badala yakwe, amenwe hwabho, olokole ufishe hwa Mataifa, ili bhebho bhene bhabhe nu wivu.
12 Now if the fall of them [be] the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness?
Nkashile amenwe hwabho hutabhale evya paulimwengu, nakashile hasalayabho atabhale wa mataifa, nazibhabhe zilenga enyinji akamilishe hwabho?
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify my office:
Na esalezi eyanga namwe mubhantu bhe Mataifa. Hwa huje enditumwa wa bhantu abhe Mataifa aganje, ehwivunira huduma yane.
14 If by any means I may incite to emulation [them who are] my flesh, and may save some of them.
Labda engabhabhehe owivu gwambele pandwemo nanene. Nkanga tigabhokola bhabha hweli bhamo.
15 For if the rejection of them [be] the reconciling of the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life from the dead?
Maana huje akhanile hwabho bhapatene ne dunia, aposhelelwe hwabho haibhawole ila uwomi afume hwaabhafwe?
16 For if the first fruit [is] holy, the lump [is] also [holy]: and if the root [is] holy, so [are] the branches.
Nkashire amadondo agapawandilo akiba, shesho sashihweli hwibhomba elye ousu. Nkashile amazi gope akiba, esamba zyope shesho.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive-tree, art ingrafted among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive-tree;
Lakini nkashile zihweli esamba zyazidumulwe, nashi wewe, isamba lya mwipoli elya mzeituni, watotilwe pandwemo nabho, na nkashile wali pandwemo nabjo namumazi age otabhalo hwa mzeituni,
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boastest, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
oganje hwintutumule amwanya yemasamba. Lakini nkashile uhwintutumula, nasaga wewe ohwavya mumazi, bali amazi gahumwavya awe.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be ingrafted.
Basi ubhayanje, “Amasamba gadumulwe huje epate atotwe mwilende.”
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not high-minded, but fear:
Ego gali lyoli. Husababu yakutowiteshe hwabho bhadumule, lakini awe wahemeleye shinza husababu yelweteho lwaho. Ugaje hwise bhelele umwene huhaliyamwanya sana, heli ogopaga.
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, [take heed] lest he also spare not thee.
Kwa maana nkashile Ongolobhe hagagalesheye amasamba amakolo, sagabhahusajile nawe shesho.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them who fell, severity; but towards thee, goodness, if thou shalt continue in [his] goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
Hwiyenye, basi, amadala amiza nuhali wa Ngolobhe. Na hudwemo humo, okhali wahenzele amwanya ya Ayahudi ebho bhagwiye. Lakini nahudwemo uwamwabho, owiza wa Ngolobhe guweza amwanya yaho, nkashile obhakhale mumiza gakwe. Shoshoti nawe amanye obhatagwe hutali.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be ingrafted: for God is able to ingraft them again.
Natele, nkashile sagabhezehwendelele mlweteshelo lyakwe, bhezatotwe natele. Maana Ongolobhe alinagwo ouwezo ogwa totele natele.
24 For if thou wast cut out of the olive-tree which is wild by nature, and wast ingrafted contrary to nature into a good olive-tree; how much more shall these, which are the natural [branches], be grafted into their own olive-tree?
Hwa huje amwekashile mwadumulwe hwoze ashilile huhale omzeituni ogwamwipoli, na kinyume shakwe ehale mwa vyalilwe mu mzeituni omwieza, sehuje hwenje sana hwebha Ayahudi, sawa nahuje masamba amakolo gowezya agavyale natele muhati ye mzeituni gabho bhebho?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, (lest ye should be wise in your own conceits) that blindness in part hath happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles shall be come in.
Hwa huje mwaholo sehwaza huje msimanye afyatane nesiri ene, huje msibhe ne eshinshi nashi asebhanye hwenyu mwemwe. Esiri ene huje okhome guifumilene na Israeli, hadi akamilisye hwa mataifa nahwayiyenza.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Epo aIsraeli yote bhaihwokoha, nashi sagasimbilwe afume: “Afume hu Sayuni ayihwenza Owakhokole. Ayihwefya oubhibhi afume hwa Yakobo.
27 For this [is] my covenant to them, when I shall take away their sins.
Neli lyayibha malagano gane pandwemo nabhene, ensiku ezyo naihwefye embibhi zyabho.”
28 As concerning the gospel, [they are] enemies for your sakes: but as concerning the election, [they are] beloved for the father's sakes.
Ahusuhudwemo humo ashilile iizuu, bhavitilwa hwu sababu yenyu. Hudwemo ohwamwabho ashilile nasalule hwa Ngolobhe, bhagenwe husababu ya amaamaa.
29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.
Hwa huje ezawadi nakwiziwe hwa Ngolobhe sagahugaluhana.
30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief;
Hwa huje ehale amwee mwalimleshile Ongolobhe, lakini esalezi muiposheye ewene hwusababu ya aleshe hwabho.
31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
Hwidala lyelyo esalezi, ebha Ayahudi bhaleshile. Afumilane nego huuje nesanjilo zya mlinazyo amwe bhawezizye bhope aposhele ewene.
Maana Ongolobhe abhankonjele abhantu woti ashilile huleshe, huje awezizye abhasajile bhoti. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable [are] his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Shahuhweli outabhalo nenshinshi nenjele eya Ngolobhe! Zagapimwapimwa naloonje hwakwe, namadala gakwe sagazimanyiha!
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor?
“Maana yonanu walimenye ilengo lya Gosi? Au yonanu waliyanzi wakwe?
35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed to him again?
Au yonanu owakwanza hupele ahantu Ongolobhe, huje alipwe nantele?”
