Romans 1

1 Paul a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle,

Pauro, muranda waJesu Kristu, wakadanwa kuva muapositori, atsaurirwa evhangeri yaMwari,

2 separated unto the gospel of God, (which He had promised before by his prophets in the holy scriptures) concerning his Son,

(yaakagara avimbisa nevaporofita vake mumagwaro matsvene),

3 who was of the seed of David according to the flesh,

maererano neMwanakomana wake, wakabva kumbeu yaDhavhidhi zvichienderana nenyama,

4 but powerfully declared to be the Son of God, according to the spirit of holiness, by his resurrection from the dead, even Jesus Christ our Lord;

wakatemerwa kuva Mwanakomana waMwari nesimba, maererano neMweya weutsvene, nekumuka kwevakafa, ndiye Jesu Kristu Ishe wedu;

5 by whom we have received grace and apostleship to preach the obedience of faith for his name's sake, to all nations;

watakagamuchira naye nyasha nevuapositori kuti kuve kuteerera kwerutendo pakati pevahedheni vese, nekuda kwezita rake,

6 among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ;

vamuri pakati pavo nemwi, vakadanwa vaJesu Kristu;

7 to all that are in Rome beloved of God, called and holy: grace be to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

kune vese vari muRoma, vadikanwi vaMwari, vakadanwa kuva vatsvene: Nyasha kwamuri nerugare rwunobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu naIshe Jesu Kristu.

8 And first I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is celebrated through the whole world:

Kutangawo ndinovonga Mwari wangu nemuna Jesu Kristu pamusoro penyu mese, kuti rutendo rwenyu rwunoparidzirwa panyika yese.

9 for God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how incessantly I make mention of you always in my prayers,

Nokuti Mwari chapupu changu, wandinoshumira pamweya wangu muevhangeri yeMwanakomana wake, kuti handiregi kukurangarirai,

10 intreating if I may now at length have a prosperous journey by the will of God, to come unto you.

panguva dzese muminyengetero yangu ndinokumbira, kuti kana zvichigoneka nechido chaMwari, ndibudirire kuuya kwamuri pakuguma.

11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, that you may be established:

Nokuti ndinoshuva kukuonai, kuti ndikupei chimwe chipo chemweya, kuti musimbiswe,

12 that is to say, that being among you we may be comforted together by the faith of each, both yours and mine.

ndiko kuti, ndinyaradzwe pamwe pakati penyu, nerutendo rweumwe neumwe, zvese rwenyu nerwangu.

13 And I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that I often purposed to come unto you, (but have been hindered hitherto) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the other Gentiles.

Zvino handidi kuti musaziva, hama, kuti kazhinji ndaizvipira kuuya kwamuri (ndokudziviswa kusvikira ikozvino), kuti ndive nechimwe chibereko pakati penyuwo, sepakati pevamwe vahedheniwo.

14 For I am a debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to the learned and the unlearned:

Ndine ngava kuVaGiriki nekuvatorwawo, kuvakachenjera nekune vasina kuchenjerawo;

15 therefore am I ready, as much as in me lies, to preach the gospel to you also that are at Rome.

saizvozvo sezviri mandiri ndakagadzirira kuparidza evhangeri kwamuriwo imwi muri paRoma.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, both Jew and Greek:

Nokuti handinyadzisvi neevhangeri yaKristu; nokuti isimba raMwari rinoendesa kuruponeso kune umwe neumwe anotenda, kumuJudha pakutanga, nekumuGirikiwo.

17 for the righteousness of God is therein revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith."

Nokuti kururama kwaMwari kunoratidzwa mairi kubva parutendo kusvika parutendo; sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Asi wakarurama achararama nerutendo.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who withhold the truth in unrighteousness;

Nokuti kutsamwa kwaMwari kunoratidzwa kubva kudenga pamusoro pekusada Mwari kwese nekusarurama kwevanhu vanodzivisa chokwadi nekusarurama;

19 for what is to be known of God is manifest among them, for God hath manifested it to them.

nokuti izvo zvinozikanwa pamusoro paMwari zviri pachena pakati pavo; nokuti Mwari wakazviratidza kwavari.

20 Inasmuch as from the first creation of the world, the invisible things of Him, even his eternal power and Godhead, are, if attended to, clearly seen in his works: (aïdios g126)

Nokuti zvisingaonekwi zvake, kubva pakusikwa kwenyika, zvinonzwisisika pazvinhu zvakaitwa, zvinooneswa pachena, simba rake rekusingaperi pamwe neuMwari hwake, kuti vasava nemanzvengero; (aïdios g126)

21 so that they are inexcusable; because having thus known God they glorified Him not as God, neither were they thankful; but were infatuated by their own reasonings, and their heart being void of understanding was darkened.

nokuti vakati vaziva Mwari, havana kumurumbidza saMwari kana kuvonga, asi vakava vasina maturo mumirangariro yavo, nemoyo wavo usinganzwisisi wakaitwa mutema.

22 Pretending to be wise they Became fools:

Vachizvipupurira kuva vakachenjera vakava mapenzi,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for an image like to corruptible man, and birds, and beasts, and reptiles.

uye vakashandurira kubwinya kwaMwari asingafi kumufananidzo wechifananidzo chemunhu anofa nekushiri nekuzvine makumbo mana nekuzvinokambaira.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to impurity, in the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies among themselves;

Naizvozvowo Mwari wakavapa kutsvina kubudikidza nekuchiva kwemoyo yavo, kuti vazvidze miviri yavo pakati pavo;

25 who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature instead of the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

avo vakashandurira chokwadi chaMwari kunhema, uye vakanamata nekushumira chisikwa kupfuura Musiki, iye anorumbidzwa nekusingaperi. Ameni. (aiōn g165)

26 Therefore God gave them up to infamous passions: for even their women changed the natural use into that which is unnatural,

Nekuda kweizvozvo Mwari wakavapa kukuchiva kunonyadzisa; nokuti kunyange vanhukadzi vavo vakashandura basa rechisikirwo rive rinopesana nechisikirwo;

27 and the men likewise, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust to one another, men with men committing shame, and receiving in themselves the recompence of their error which they deserved.

uye saizvozvowo vanhurume vakasiya basa rechisikirwo kumunhukadzi, vakapiswa nekuchivana kwavo, vanhurume nevanhurume vachiita zvinonyadzisa vachigamuchira mukati mavo muripo wakafanira kurasika kwavo.

28 And as they were not careful to acknowledge God, God gave them up to an undiscerning mind to do things that were not fit to be done:

Uye zvavakaona zvisina kufanira kugara naMwari muruzivo, Mwari wakavapa kumurangariro wakaraswa, kuti vaite zvinhu zvisakafanira;

29 being filled with all injustice, lewdness, wickedness, covetousness, malignity; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and every evil habit; whisperers,

vakazadzwa nekusarurama kwese, ufeve, kuipa, ruchiva, unhubu, kuzara negodo, umhondi, gakava, kunyengera, utsotsi, vanoita makuhwa,

30 slanderers, haters of God, injurious, haughty, proud, inventers of mischief, undutiful to parents, void of understanding,

vacheri, vavengi vaMwari, vazvidzi, vadadi, vanozvikudza, vavambi vezvakaipa, vasingateereri vabereki,

31 covenant-breakers, without natural affection, implacable, and unmerciful:

vasinganzwisisi, vaputsi vesungano, vane utsinye, vasingaregereri, vasina tsitsi,

32 who though they knew the just judgement of God, (that they who commit such practises are worthy of death) yet not only do these very things, but also countenance and encourage others in the practice of them.

avo vanoti vachiziva murairo wekururama kwaMwari, kuti vanoita zvakadai vakafanirwa nerufu, havaiti izvo chete, asiwo vanotenderana nevanozviita.
