Aroma 3
1 Gwatuĩka ũguo-rĩ, Mũyahudi agĩkĩrĩte andũ arĩa angĩ na kĩ? Kana bata wa kũrua ũkĩrĩ ũrĩkũ?
What preferment then hath the Iewe? other what a vauntageth circumcision?
2 Hĩ! Ũguni no mũnene na njĩra ciothe! Mbere ya maũndũ mothe, Ayahudi nĩo mehokeirwo ũramati wa ciugo cia Ngai.
Surely very moche. Fyrst vnto them was committed the worde of God
3 Ĩ kũngĩkorwo amwe ao nĩmagire kwĩhokeka, kwaga kwĩhokeka kwao, nĩkũngĩatũmire Ngai aage gũtuĩka mwĩhokeku?
What then though some of them did not beleve? shall their vnbeleve make the promes of god with out effecte?
4 Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo! Ngai arotuĩka wa ma, na mũndũ o wothe atuĩke wa maheeni, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Nĩguo kuonekage atĩ rĩrĩa ũkwaria, wee waragia maũndũ ma kĩhooto, na ũhootanage rĩrĩa ũgũciirithania.”
God forbid. Let god be true and all men lyars as it is written: That thou myghtest be iustifyed in thy sayinge and shuldest overcome when thou arte iudged.
5 No rĩrĩ, angĩkorwo wagi witũ wa ũthingu nĩũtũmaga ũthingu wa Ngai ũguũrio mũno makĩria-rĩ, tũkiuge atĩa? No tuuge atĩ Ngai ti wa kĩhooto rĩrĩa egũtũkinyĩria mangʼũrĩ make? (Ndĩraaria o ta ũrĩa mũndũ wa gũkũ thĩ angĩaria.)
Yf oure vnrightewesnes make the rightewesnes of God more excellent: what shall we saye? Is God vnrighteous which taketh vengeauce? I speake after the maner of me.
6 Aca, kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo! Angĩkorwo ũguo nĩguo kũrĩ-rĩ, Ngai angĩgĩtuĩra thĩ ciira atĩa?
God forbid. For how then shall God iudge the worlde?
7 No mũndũ ahota kuuga atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo kũheenania gwakwa no kũingĩhie ũhoro-wa-ma wa Ngai, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtũme riiri wake wongerereke-rĩ, niĩ ngĩtuagĩrwo ciira ta ndĩ mwĩhia nĩkĩ?”
Yf the veritie of God appere moare excellent thorow my lye vnto his prayse why am I hence forth iudged as a synner?
8 Nĩ kĩĩ kĩgiragia tuuge, ta ũrĩa tũcambagio atĩ nĩguo tuugaga, o na ta ũrĩa andũ amwe moigaga atĩ nĩguo tuugaga, “Nĩtũtũũre twĩkaga ũũru nĩguo wega woneke”? Acio-rĩ, gũtuĩrwo ciira kwao nĩ gwa kĩhooto.
and saye not rather (as men evyll speake of vs and as some affirme that we saye) let vs do evyll that good maye come therof. Whose damnacion is iuste.
9 Tũkiuge atĩa? Ithuĩ Ayahudi tũkĩrĩ ega gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ? Aca, tiguo! Nĩtũrĩkĩtie kuonania hau mbere atĩ Ayahudi o hamwe na andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ othe nĩmagwĩte hinya-inĩ wa mehia.
What saye we then? Are we better then they? No in no wyse. For we have all ready proved how that both Iewes and Gentils are all vnder synne
10 O ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Gũtirĩ mũndũ mũthingu, gũtirĩ o na ũmwe;
as it is writte: There is none righteous no not one:
11 gũtirĩ mũndũ ũmenyaga ũndũ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrongoragia Ngai.
There is none that vnderstondith there is none yt seketh after God
12 Othe nĩmagarũrũkĩte, makoora, othe hamwe magatuĩka kĩndũ gĩtarĩ bata; gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkaga wega, gũtirĩ o na ũmwe.”
they are all gone out of ye waye they are all made vnprofytable ther is none that doeth good no not one.
13 “Mĩmero yao ĩhaana ta mbĩrĩra hingũre; nĩmĩ ciao ciaragia o maheeni.” “Mĩromo yao yaragia maũndũ marũrũ ta thumu wa nduĩra.”
Their throte is an open sepulchre with their tounges they have disceaved: the poyson of Aspes is vnder their lippes.
14 “Tũnua twao tũiyũrĩte irumi na ũrũrũ.”
Whose mouthes are full of coursynge and bitternes.
15 “Mahanyũkaga na magũrũ magaite thakame;
Their fete are swyfte to sheed bloud.
16 mwanangĩko na kĩeha nĩcio cionanagia kũrĩa magereire,
Destruccion and wretchednes are in their wayes.
17 nayo njĩra ya thayũ matimĩũĩ.”
And the waye of peace they have not knowen.
18 “Hatirĩ wĩtigĩri Ngai maitho-inĩ mao.”
There is no feare of God before their eyes.
19 Na rĩu-rĩ, nĩtũũĩ atĩ maũndũ marĩa mothe watho uugĩte, merĩtwo andũ arĩa marĩ rungu rwa watho, nĩgeetha kanua o gothe gakirio, nao andũ a thĩ othe matuĩke a gũciirithio nĩ Ngai.
Ye and we knowe that whatsoever ye lawe sayth he sayth it to them which are vnder the lawe. That all mouthes maye be stopped and all the worlde be subdued to god
20 Tondũ wa ũguo-rĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũ ũngĩtuuo mũthingu maitho-inĩ ma Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmia watho; no rĩrĩ, watho nĩguo ũtũmaga andũ mamenye atĩ nĩmehĩtie.
because that by ye dedes of the lawe shall no flesshe be iustified in the sight of God. For by the lawe commeth the knowledge of synne.
21 No rĩrĩ, rĩu ũthingu uumĩte kũrĩ Ngai nĩũmenyithanĩtio na njĩra ĩngĩ ĩtahutanĩtie na Watho wa Musa, o na gũtuĩka nĩyoimbũrĩtwo o tene nĩ Watho na Anabii.
Now verely is ye rigtewesnes that cometh of God declared without the fulfillinge of ye lawe havinge witnes yet of ye lawe and of the Prophetes.
22 Naguo ũthingu ũyũ nĩ ũrĩa uumaga kũrĩ Ngai, na ũheagwo arĩa othe metĩkĩtie na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia Jesũ Kristũ. Gũtirĩ ũhoro wa gũthuurania andũ,
The rightewesnes no dout which is good before God cometh by ye fayth of Iesus Christ vnto all and vpon all that beleve. Ther is no differece:
23 nĩgũkorwo andũ othe nĩmehĩtie na makanyiihĩrwo nĩ riiri wa Ngai,
for all have synned and lacke the prayse yt is of valoure before God:
24 na nĩ ũndũ wa wega wa Ngai magatuuo athingu o ũguo tũhũ, nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa maakũũrirwo nĩ Kristũ Jesũ.
but are iustified frely by his grace through the redemcion that is in Christ Iesu
25 Ngai aamũrutire arĩ igongona rĩa kũhoroheria mehia na ũndũ wa wĩtĩkio thĩinĩ wa thakame yake. Ngai eekire ũguo nĩgeetha onanie ũthingu wake, tondũ wa ũrĩa mehia ma mbere ĩyo maarekeirwo andũ matekũherithio, nĩ ũndũ wa gũkirĩrĩria kwa Ngai,
whom God hath made a seate of mercy thorow faith in his bloud to shewe ye rightewesnes which before him is of valoure in yt he forgeveth ye synnes yt are passed which God dyd suffre
26 nake eekire ũguo nĩgeetha onanie ũthingu wake mahinda-inĩ maya, na kũmenyeke atĩ we nĩ mũthingu, na nĩwe ũtuaga andũ arĩa metĩkĩtie Jesũ athingu.
to shewe at this tyme ye rightewesnes yt is alowed of him yt he myght be couted iuste and a iustifiar of him which belevith on Iesus.
27 Gwagĩtuĩka ũguo-rĩ, kwĩraha gũkĩrĩ ha? Nĩ kweherie biũ. Kweheretio nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtũmi kĩrĩkũ? Hihi nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmia watho? Aca, no nĩ ũndũ wa watho ũrĩa wa wĩtĩkio.
Where is then thy reioysinge? It is excluded. By what lawe? by ye lawe of workes? Naye: but by the lawe of fayth.
28 Nĩgũkorwo nĩtũrũmĩtie atĩ mũndũ atuagwo mũthingu na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia no ti ũndũ wa gwathĩkĩra watho.
For we suppose that a man is iustified by fayth without the dedes of ye lawe.
29 Ngai-rĩ, akĩrĩ o Ngai wa Ayahudi oiki? Githĩ Ngai ti wa andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ o nao? Ĩĩ, nĩ Ngai wa andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ o nao,
Is he the God of the Iewes only? Is he not also the God of the Gentyls? Yes eve of the Gentyles also.
30 nĩgũkorwo Ngai no ũmwe, na nĩwe ũrĩĩtuaga andũ arĩa maruaga athingu, na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia, na arĩa mataruaga nao amatuuage athingu na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia o ro ũguo.
For it is God only which iustifieth circumcision which is of fayth and vncircumcision thorow fayth.
31 Rĩu-rĩ, no twagithie ũhoro wa watho kĩene nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wa wĩtĩkio ũcio? Aca, kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo! Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, nĩ watho tũgũkĩongerera hinya.
Do we then destroye the lawe thorow fayth? God forbid. But we rather mayntayne the lawe.
