Romans 10
1 Brethren, the pleasure indeed of my heart, and my supplication that [is] to God for Israel, is — for salvation;
E oku teina, ko ta toku ngakau i wawata ai, ko toku inoi hoki ki te Atua mo ratou, kia whakaorangia ratou.
2 for I bear them testimony that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge,
E whakaae ana hoki ahau ki a ratou, he ngakau nui to ratou ki te Atua, otiia ehara i te mea mohio.
3 for not knowing the righteousness of God, and their own righteousness seeking to establish, to the righteousness of God they did not submit.
I a ratou hoki e kuware ana ki ta te Atua tika, e whai ana kia whakaukia ko to ratou ake, kihai ratou i ngohengohe ki te tika a te Atua.
4 For Christ is an end of law for righteousness to every one who is believing,
Ko te Karaiti hoki te tukunga iho o te ture hei tika mo nga tangata whakapono katoa.
5 for Moses doth describe the righteousness that [is] of the law, that, 'The man who did them shall live in them,'
Kua tuhituhia hoki e Mohi, ko te tangata e whakarite ana i ta te ture tika, ka ora ia i reira.
6 and the righteousness of faith doth thus speak: 'Thou mayest not say in thine heart, Who shall go up to the heaven,' that is, Christ to bring down?
Ko te kupu ia tenei o to te whakapono tika, Aua e mea i roto i tou ngakau, Ko wai hei kake ki te rangi? ara ki te tiki atu i a te Karaiti ki raro:
Ko wai ranei hei heke iho ki te hohonu? ara ki te tiki atu i a te Karaiti i roto i te hunga mate. (Abyssos g12)
8 But what doth it say? 'Nigh thee is the saying — in thy mouth, and in thy heart:' that is, the saying of the faith, that we preach;
E pehea ana oti? E tata ana ki a koe te kupu, kei tou mangai, kei tou ngakau: ko ia tenei, ko te kupu o te whakapono e kauwhau nei matou;
9 that if thou mayest confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and mayest believe in thy heart that God did raise him out of the dead, thou shalt be saved,
Ara ki te whakaae tou mangai ko Ihu te Ariki, a ki te whakapono tou ngakau na te Atua ia i whakaara ake i te hunga mate, e ora koe.
10 for with the heart doth [one] believe to righteousness, and with the mouth is confession made to salvation;
Ma te ngakau hoki kia whakapono ka tika ai; ma te mangai kia whakaae ka ora ai.
11 for the Writing saith, 'Every one who is believing on him shall not be ashamed,'
E mea ana hoki te karaipiture, Ko nga tangata katoa e whakapono ana ki a ia e kore e meinga kia whakama.
12 for there is no difference between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord of all [is] rich to all those calling upon Him,
Kahore hoki he rereketanga o te Hurai, o te Kariki: a ko taua Ariki ano te Ariki o te katoa, a e hua ana ana taonga ki te hunga katoa e karanga ana ki a ia.
13 for every one — whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, he shall be saved.'
E ora hoki nga tangata katoa e karanga ana ki te ingoa o te Ariki.
14 How then shall they call upon [him] in whom they did not believe? and how shall they believe [on him] of whom they did not hear? and how shall they hear apart from one preaching?
Na, me pehea ta ratou karanga ki a ia, ki te kahore i whakapono ki a ia? me pehea hoki ta ratou whakapono ki a ia, ki te kahore i rongo ki a ia? me pehea hoki e rongo ai, ki te kahore he kaikauwhau?
15 and how shall they preach, if they may not be sent? according as it hath been written, 'How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!'
A me pehea e kauwhau ai, ki te kahore e tonoa? ko te mea ia i tuhituhia, Ano te ataahua o nga waewae o te hunga kawe mai i te rongo whakahari o nga mea papai!
16 But they were not all obedient to the good tidings, for Isaiah saith, 'Lord, who did give credence to our report?'
Otira kahore ratou katoa i ngohengohe ki nga rongo whakahari. E mea ana hoki a Ihaia, E te Ariki, ko wai i whakapono ki ta matou whakaatu?
17 so then the faith [is] by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
Ina, na te rongo te whakapono, a ko te rongo na te kupu a te Karaiti.
18 but I say, Did they not hear? yes, indeed — 'to all the earth their voice went forth, and to the ends of the habitable world their sayings.'
Otiia ko taku kupu tenei, Kahore ranei ratou i rongo? Koia ra ia, Kua puta atu to ratou reo ki te whenua katoa, a ratou kupu hoki ki nga topito o te ao.
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? first Moses saith, 'I will provoke you to jealousy by [that which is] not a nation; by an unintelligent nation I will anger you,'
Ko taku kupu ia tenei, kahore ianei a Iharaira i mohio? Na Mohi te kupu tuatahi, Maku koutou e whakaoho kia hae ki te hunga ehara i te iwi; Ka meinga e ahau te iwi poauau hei whakaoho i a koutou ki te riri.
20 and Isaiah is very bold, and saith, 'I was found by those not seeking Me; I became manifest to those not inquiring after Me;'
A ka maia rawa a Ihaia, ka mea, Kua kitea ahau e te hunga kihai i rapu i ahau; kua whakakitea ahau ki te hunga kihai nei i ui ki ahau.
21 and unto Israel He saith, 'All the day I did stretch out My hands unto a people unbelieving and gainsaying.'
Ko tana kupu ia mo Iharaira, Pau noa te ra i totoro atu ai oku ringa ki te iwi tutu, ki te iwi whakahawea.
