Romans 10
1 Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.
RI ai kan, inon en monion i, o ai nidinid kin irail on Kot pan dore ir ala.
2 For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
Pwe nai kadede parail me re kin nantion Kot ap jaja tiak.
3 For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
Pwe re jaja pun en Kot, ap jojon kapwaiada pein arail pun ap jota duki on pun en Kot.
4 For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Pwe Krijtuj kaimwijok pan kapun o; karoj me pojon en pun kila.
5 For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.”
Pwe Mojej majanier duen pun en me pwili jan kapun o: Aramaj o, me kapwaiada jon pukat, a pan maur kila.
6 But the righteousness which is of faith says this, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down);
A iet me pun, me pwili jan pojon, kin inda: Der inda nan monion om: Ij me pan daudala nanlan? let wewe: En wadido Krijtuj.
7 or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)” (Abyssos g12)
De ij me pan daudi waja lol? let wewe: En wadado Krijtuj jan ren me melar akan. (Abyssos g12)
8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart;” that is, the word of faith which we preach:
A da me a kin inda? Majan me koren ion uk, a kin mi nan au om o nan monion om; iei majan en pojon, me je kin padaki wei.
9 that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Pwe ma koe pan kadedeki au om Iejuj, me i me Kaun, ap pojon nan monion om, me Kot Kotin kaiajadar i jan ren me melar akan, koe ap pan doro kila.
10 For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.
Pwe pojon kin tapi jan nan monion o, pwen pun kila, o kadede kin tapi jan nan au o, pwen maurkila.
11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
Pwe kijin likau me majan i: Amen amen me pan pojon i, jota pan joredi.
12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.
Pwe jota irair eu nan pun en men Juj o men Krik, pwe Kaun en irail karoj me ta men, me dir en kalanan on karoj, me kin likwir on i;
13 For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Pwe amen amen me likwir on mar en Kaun o pan dore kila.
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?
A iaduen, irail pan likwirlan i, me irail jota pojon? A iaduen, irail pan kak pojon i, me re jaikenta ron? A iaduen irail pan kak ron, ma jota jaunpadak?
15 And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!”
A iaduen, irail pan kak padaki wei, ma re jota pan pakadarala? Duen a intinidier: Meid pai na en me padaki ronamau en popol, me padaki ronamau en me mau kan!
16 But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?”
A kaidin karoj me peiki on ronamau. Pwe Iejaia majani: Main, ij me kamelele at padak?
17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Ari, pojon kin pwili jan padak, a padak kin pwili jan majan en Kot.
18 But I say, didn’t they hear? Yes, most certainly, “Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
A nai me inda: Irail jota ronadar? O ei! Pwe nil arail leler jap karoj, o ar padak lel on irair en jappa.
19 But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation. I will make you angry with a nation void of understanding.”
A nai me inda: Ijrael jota wewekier? Pwe iet kaieu, me Mojej majani: I pan kajarowei kin komail, me kaidin nai aramaj, o I pan kamakara kin komail aramaj pweipwei kan.
20 Isaiah is very bold and says, “I was found by those who didn’t seek me. I was revealed to those who didn’t ask for me.”
A Iejaia kelail majani: Nai me kadiarokada jan ren me jota rapakin ia, o Nai me pwara don, me jota idok ia.
21 But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
A kotin majani duen Ijrael: Kaukaule I kapawei pa i kat on aramaj katiwo o kanudi kan.
