< Romans 3 >

1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is there] of circumcision?
Lanwani Jufinba pia be ke li teni ke be cie yaa nibuolu n sieni, ki kua ku koanciagu mo pia be fuome?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that to them were committed the oracles of God.
Lankuli pia mayuli boncianla li bonla kuli po, li bonkpiala tie ke U TIENU den piani Jufinba yo O maama.
3 For what if some did not believe? will their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
Ba ke bi siiga bi tianba ki tie dugikaaba, nani li ba teni ke U TIENU kaa tie dugikoa?
4 By no means: verily let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mayest be justified in thy sayings, and mayest overcome when thou art judged.
Lani ki ye U TIENU tie moamoandaano, nisaalo kuli mo tuofaadaano nani lan diani maama: li tie tiladi ban bandi ke a tiegi a maama nni, a ya buni leni bi niba mo, a ba paadi.
5 But if our unrighteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man.)
Lanwani ti biadima ya teni ke U TIENU teginma doagidi, ti ba yedi lede? Naani U TIENU ki tiegi o pali ya beni kelima ti biadima yeni po bii? N maadi nani bi nisaaliba n nua maama.
6 By no means: for then how shall God judge the world?
Yeni ka! U TIENU ya ki tiegi, O ba ga lede ki jia ti buudi leni ŋanduna yaaba?
7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie to his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
Li ya tie ke n faama teni ke U TIENU moamoani doagidi ki tie O kpiagidi po, be yaa po ke O ba bu ki cuo nni nani n tie tuonbiadi daano yeni?
8 And not [rather] (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
Nani bi nitianba yaaba n maadi mi mabiadima ki yieni ke ti tua, be yaapo ke ti ka tiendi yaala n bia ke yaala n ŋani n yuandi ki cua? Laa niba ya cuonu tiegi.
9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
Lanwani lede! ti tie nimoanba ki cie nibuotoe bii? Baa waamu. Kelima ti maadi ki doagidi ke grekinba leni Jufinba kuli tie ti tuonbiadi n die yaaba.
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Nani lan diani maama: oba kuli ki tiegi, baa niyendo.
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh God.
Oba ki tie yanfodaano, nilo ba ki lingi U TIENU.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Bi kuli yaadi, ki taani ki biidi bi yula, yua n tiendi yaala n ŋani naa ye, ba niyendo.
13 Their throat [is] an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
Bi niabonma kuli tie nani ya kula n yaa yeni, bi boandi bi niba leni bi landi, ya maama n ña bi noacuuna nni bia nani o duduuno loabidi yeni.
14 Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness.
Bi ñoana gbie leni ti solindi leni ki nanga.
15 Their feet [are] swift to shed blood.
Bi pia ya taana n jaligi mi soawulima po,
16 Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:
ban tagini naani kuli, bi ŋa dagbendi leni falabiado.
17 And the way of peace have they not known.
Baa bandi mi yanduanma sanu,
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
baa nua U TIENU leni li fangili.
19 Now we know that whatever things the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
To, ti bani ke U TIENU balimaama n yedi yaala kuli tie li balimaama n die yaaba po, ki ba teni nilo kuli ñoabu n mubini, ke bi niba kuli n tuo ke bi pia i tagili U TIENU nintuali.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law, there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.
Kelima nilo ba kan baa li moamoansaali U TIENU kani kelima o tiendi li balimaama n yedi yaala, kelima li balimaama n teni ke o nisaalo bandi ti tuonbiadi.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being testified by the law and the prophets;
Ama moala, U TIENU n saa i moamoani maama ke bi nisaaliba doagidi, ke li naa ŋoadi li balimaama kubima nani li balimaama leni bi sawalipuaba kuli tieni li po siedi.
22 Even the righteousness of God, [which is] by faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all them that believe; for there is no difference:
Bani Yaaba n tuo ki daani kuli ya po, U TIENU saagi i moamoani ke bi tiegi kelima li dandanli JESU kilisiti nni yaa po.
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Mi gagidima ki ye bi niba leni bi yaba siiga, bi kuli tieni ti tuonbiadi ki poadi U TIENU kpiagidi.
24 Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Jesus Christ:
Ama kelima U TIENU ŋanbili paabu yaa po, bi nisaaliba baa li moamoansaali kelima JESU Kilisiti daafaabima yaa po.
25 Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
U TIENU den tuodi ki bili ke wani JESU baa tua i candanbaani padili yaaba n pia li dandanli o soama po kuli yaa po. U TIENU tieni yeni ke wan fidi ki doagidi O teginma, kelima O den juuni leni bi niba n den tieni ya tuonbiadi u yogunkpelu kaa cuo ba ti po.
26 To declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he may be just, and the justifier of him who believeth in Jesus.
O den bua ki doagidi O teginma moala po, ke bi niba n bandi ke o tiegi ki go tie yua n puuni li moamoansaali yua n daani Jesu kuli.
27 Where [is] boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No; but by the law of faith.
Lanwani o nisaalo ba kpiagi o yuli kelima be yaa po? Waa go pia li sanu. Mi laa balimaama po? A tuona po bii? A-a, ama li dandanli yaa po.
28 Therefore we conclude, that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Kelima ti sua ke o nilo baa li moamoansaali kelima lio dandanli yaa po, ke laa tie li balimaama kubima po.
29 [Is he] the God of the Jews only? [is he] not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
UTIENU tie TIENU jufinba bebe po bii? naani waa tie UTIENU bi nilamba mo ko yaa po? O tie UTIENU bi lamba moko po saa.
30 Seeing [it is] one God who will justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
Kelima Tienyendu bebe n ye, yua nba saa i moamoani yaaba n kua ku koanciagu po kelima bi dandanli po, ki go saa yaaba ntie jifola po moamoani kelima bi moko yaa dandanli yaa po.
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? By no means: but we establish the law.
Naani ti ba bolini li balimaama kelima li dandanli po bii? Kalam, ti doagidi li bali maama n pia yaa ma yuli moamoani.
