1 Nĩ niĩ Paũlũ, ndungata ya Kristũ Jesũ, o niĩ njĩtĩĩtwo nduĩke mũtũmwo, na ngaamũrwo hunjagie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Ngai,
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
2 o Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega eeranĩire o mbere na tũnua twa anabii ake thĩinĩ wa Maandĩko marĩa Matheru,
which he formerly promised through his prophets in the holy scriptures,
3 ũrĩa ũkoniĩ Mũrũwe, ũrĩa ta mũndũ warĩ wa rũciaro rwa Daudi.
concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the posterity of David according to the flesh,
4 Na rĩrĩ, Roho wa ũtheru nĩonanirie na ũhoti atĩ Jesũ Kristũ nĩ Mũrũ wa Ngai tondũ wa ũrĩa aariũkire akiuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ: o we Jesũ Kristũ Mwathani witũ.
but declared to be the Son of God with power, according to his holy spiritual nature, by his resurrection from the dead,
5 kũgerera we Ngai nĩatũheete wega wake, na agatũhe ũhoti ta atũmwo nĩguo twĩre andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe kũndũ guothe ũrĩa Ngai amekĩire, nĩguo mamwĩtĩkie na mamwathĩkĩre, nĩguo matũme rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩgoocagwo.
through whom we have received grace and apostleship, in order to the obedience of faith among all nations, for the honor of his name,
6 O na inyuĩ mũrĩ amwe a acio metĩtwo matuĩke a Jesũ Kristũ.
among whom are you also the called of Jesus Christ,
7 Ndĩramwandĩkĩra marũa maya inyuothe arĩa mũrĩ kũu Roma, o inyuĩ mwendetwo nĩ Ngai, na mũgetwo mũtuĩke andũ aamũre: Wega na thayũ kuuma kũrĩ Ngai Ithe witũ, na kuuma kũrĩ Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ, iroikara na inyuĩ.
to all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints: Grace be to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 O mbere nĩngũcookeria Ngai wakwa ngaatho thĩinĩ wa Jesũ Kristũ nĩ ũndũ wanyu inyuothe, tondũ ũhoro wa wĩtĩkio wanyu nĩũmenyithanĩtio thĩ yothe.
First, I thank my God, through Jesus Christ, on account of you all, because your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 Ngai, ũrĩa niĩ ndungatagĩra na ngoro yakwa yothe na ũndũ wa kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Mũrũwe-rĩ, nĩwe mũira wakwa wa ũrĩa ndũũraga ndĩmũririkanaga
For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that, without ceasing, I make mention of you,
10 mahooya-inĩ makwa hĩndĩ ciothe; na nĩndĩrahooya atĩ rĩu nĩ ũndũ wa kwenda kwa Ngai no hingũrĩrwo njĩra nĩguo njũke kũrĩ inyuĩ.
always in my prayers making request, that, if possible, I may at length have a prosperous journey, by the will of God to come to you.
11 Nĩndĩrerirĩria mũno tuonane na inyuĩ nĩgeetha ndĩmũgaĩre iheo cia kĩĩroho nĩguo muongererwo hinya,
For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, in order that you may be established;
12 ũguo nĩ kuuga atĩ inyuĩ na niĩ tũgĩe na ũhoro wa kũũmanĩrĩria, o mũndũ omĩrĩrie mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ na wĩtĩkio wake.
that is, that I may both give and receive comfort, while I am among you, through our common faith.
13 Ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ndikwenda mwage kũmenya atĩ nĩ mahinda maingĩ ndanabanga kũmũceerera (no ndanagirĩrĩrio gwĩka ũguo nginya rĩu) nĩgeetha ngĩe na maciaro thĩinĩ wanyu, o ta ũrĩa ngĩĩte na maciaro thĩinĩ wa andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ iria ingĩ.
But, brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant that I often purposed to come to you, though I have been hindered to the present time, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
14 Niĩ haana ta ndĩ na thiirĩ na Ayunani o na arĩa matarĩ Ayunani, ningĩ ngagĩa na thiirĩ wa andũ arĩa oogĩ o na arĩa matarĩ oogĩ.
I am a debtor both to the Greeks and to the barbarians; both to the wise and to the unwise.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩkĩo ndĩriragĩria mũno kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega o na kũrĩ inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũraga Roma.
So that, as far as I am able, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also, who are in Rome.
16 Niĩ ndingĩconokera Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, tondũ nĩguo hinya wa Ngai wa gũtũma mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũwĩtĩkĩtie ahonoke: O mbere Ayahudi, na thuutha wao nĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ.
For I am not ashamed of the Gospel: for it is the power of God in order to salvation, to every one that believes, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 Nĩgũkorwo thĩinĩ wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, ũthingu ũrĩa uumĩte kũrĩ Ngai nĩũguũrĩtio, na nĩguo ũthingu ũrĩa wonekaga na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria nginya kĩrĩkĩro, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “Mũndũ ũrĩa mũthingu arĩtũũraga muoyo nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia.”
For in it the righteousness of God by faith is revealed, in order to faith: as it is written, He that is justified by faith, shall live.
18 Mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai nĩmaguũrĩtio kuuma igũrũ mokĩrĩre ũhoro wothe wa andũ kũregana na Ngai, na waganu wa andũ arĩa magiragĩrĩria ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma na ũndũ wa waganu wao,
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who, by unrighteousness, restrain the truth.
19 nĩgũkorwo maũndũ ma Ngai marĩa mangĩmenyeka nĩo matiagĩte kũmenyeka nĩo, tondũ Ngai nĩwe wamamenyithirie.
Because that which may be known of God, is manifest among them; for God has made it manifest to them,
20 Nĩgũkorwo kuuma rĩrĩa thĩ yombirwo, maũndũ ma Ngai marĩa matonekaga, na nĩmo hinya wake wa tene na tene, o na ũngai wake, nĩmarĩkĩtie kuoneka o wega, na makamenyeka nĩ ũndũ wa indo iria ciombirwo, nĩgeetha andũ matikagĩe na kĩĩgwatio. (aïdios g126)
(for, since the creation of the world, his attributes, which are invisible, are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, ) that they may be without excuse; (aïdios g126)
21 Tondũ o na harĩa maamenyete Ngai, matiigana kũmũgooca taarĩ Ngai, kana makĩmũcookeria ngaatho, no meciiria mao maatuĩkire ma tũhũ, nacio ngoro ciao ngĩĩgu ikĩgĩa nduma.
because, when they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were they thankful; but they became perverse in their reasonings, and their wicked heart was darkened;
22 Na o rĩrĩa moigaga atĩ o nĩ oogĩ-rĩ, noguo maatuĩkire irimũ,
professing to be wise, they became foolish,
23 nao magĩkũũrania riiri wa Ngai ũrĩa mũtũũra muoyo na mĩhianano ĩthondeketwo ĩkahaana ta andũ arĩa makuuaga, na nyoni, na nyamũ cia magũrũ mana, o na nyamũ iria itaambaga thĩ.
and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ngai akĩmarekereria marũmagĩrĩre merirĩria mao mooru marĩa ngoro ciao cieriragĩria, o na mekage maũndũ ma ũmaraya ma kwagithia mĩĩrĩ yao gĩtĩĩo, mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.
For which reason God delivered them up, in the desires of their hearts, to uncleanness, that they might dishonor their bodies among themselves;
25 Nĩmakũũranirie ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma wa Ngai na maheeni, makĩhooya na magĩtungatĩra indo iria ciombirwo handũ ha gũtungatĩra Mũciũmbi, o ũcio wa kũgoocagwo nginya tene. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 Tondũ wa ũguo-rĩ, Ngai nĩamarekereirie marũmagĩrĩre merirĩria mao mooru ma maũndũ ma thoni. O na andũ-a-nja ao nĩmakũũranirie mũtugo wao ũrĩa wa ndũire na ũrĩa ũtarĩ wa ndũire.
For this reason, God delivered them over to vile passions: for their females exchanged their natural use for that which is against nature:
27 O nao arũme o ũndũ ũmwe nĩmatiganĩirie mũtugo wao ũrĩa wa ndũire na andũ-a-nja, magaakanagwo nĩ merirĩria mooru ma kwĩriranĩria o ene. Arũme magĩĩka ciĩko cia ũra-thoni na arũme arĩa angĩ, nao nĩmegwatĩire thĩinĩ wa mĩĩrĩ yao ene iherithia rĩrĩa rĩmagĩrĩire nĩ ũndũ wa waganu ũcio wao.
and in like manner also the males, leaving the natural use of the females, burned in their lusts one toward another, males with males practicing infamous lewdness, and receiving in themselves the due reward of their error.
28 Na makĩria ma ũguo-rĩ, tondũ mationire bata wa gũtũũra mamenyete Ngai, nake akĩmarekereria magĩe na meciiria ma ũmaramari, mekage maũndũ marĩa mataagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩkwo.
And as they refused to acknowledge God, God delivered them up to an undiscerning mind, to do detestable things;
29 Nao makĩiyũrwo nĩ waganu wa mĩthemba yothe, ũũru, na ũkoroku, na meciiria ma ũmaramari. Makaiyũrwo nĩ ũiru, na ũragani, na ngũĩ, na maheeni, na rũmena. Magatuĩka andũ a mũhuhu,
as they were filled with all unrighteousness, lewdness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, malignity;
30 na acambania, na athũũri Ngai, na aciinũrani, na egaathi, na etĩĩi, mathugundaga njĩra cia gwĩka ũũru, na andũ matangĩathĩkĩra aciari ao;
whisperers, evil-speakers, haters of God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents;
31 nao ti akuũku wega, na matitĩĩaga ũhoro ũrĩa mũrĩĩkanĩre, na nĩ ooru mũno, na matirĩ tha.
without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful;
32 Na o na gwatuĩka nĩmooĩ watho wa ũthingu wa Ngai atĩ andũ arĩa mekaga maũndũ ta macio maagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkua, to gũthiĩ mathiiaga na mbere na gwĩka maũndũ macio tu, no nĩmetĩkanagia na andũ arĩa mekaga maũndũ macio.
who, acknowledging the judgment of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but approve those who practice them.
