1 Nĩ niĩ Paũlũ, ndungata ya Kristũ Jesũ, o niĩ njĩtĩĩtwo nduĩke mũtũmwo, na ngaamũrwo hunjagie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Ngai,
Paul, bondman of Jesus Christ, [a] called apostle, separated to God's glad tidings,
2 o Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega eeranĩire o mbere na tũnua twa anabii ake thĩinĩ wa Maandĩko marĩa Matheru,
(which he had before promised by his prophets in holy writings, )
3 ũrĩa ũkoniĩ Mũrũwe, ũrĩa ta mũndũ warĩ wa rũciaro rwa Daudi.
concerning his Son (come of David's seed according to 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.
marked out Son of God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by resurrection of [the] dead) Jesus Christ our Lord;
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.
by whom we have received grace and apostleship in behalf of his name, for obedience of faith among all the nations,
6 O na inyuĩ mũrĩ amwe a acio metĩtwo matuĩke a Jesũ Kristũ.
among whom are ye 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 to you and peace from God our Father and [our] 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 for you all, that your faith is proclaimed in 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 in my spirit in the glad tidings of his Son, how unceasingly 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 beseeching at my prayers, if any way now at least I may be prospered 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 to establish you;
12 ũguo nĩ kuuga atĩ inyuĩ na niĩ tũgĩe na ũhoro wa kũũmanĩrĩria, o mũndũ omĩrĩrie mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ na wĩtĩkio wake.
that is, to have mutual comfort among you, each by the faith [which is] in the other, both yours and mine.
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 I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that I often proposed to come to you, (and have been hindered until the present time, ) that I might have some fruit among you too, even as among the other nations also.
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 Greeks and barbarians, both to wise and unintelligent:
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩkĩo ndĩriragĩria mũno kũhunjia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega o na kũrĩ inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũraga Roma.
so, as far as depends on me, am I ready to announce the glad tidings 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 glad tidings; for it is God's power to salvation, to every one that believes, both to Jew first and to 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 righteousness of God is revealed therein, on the principle of faith, to faith: according as it is written, But the just shall live by faith.
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 there is revealed wrath of God from heaven upon all impiety, and unrighteousness of men holding the truth in unrighteousness.
19 nĩgũkorwo maũndũ ma Ngai marĩa mangĩmenyeka nĩo matiagĩte kũmenyeka nĩo, tondũ Ngai nĩwe wamamenyithirie.
Because what is known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested [it] 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 from [the] world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, — so as to render them inexcusable. (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, knowing God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but fell into folly in their thoughts, and their heart without understanding was darkened:
22 Na o rĩrĩa moigaga atĩ o nĩ oogĩ-rĩ, noguo maatuĩkire irimũ,
professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
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 changed the glory of the incorruptible God into [the] likeness of an image of corruptible man and of birds and quadrupeds and reptiles.
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.
Wherefore God gave them up [also] in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies between 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 changed the truth of God into falsehood, and honoured and served the creature more than him who had created [it], who is blessed for ever. 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 gave them up to vile lusts; for both their females changed the natural use into that contrary to 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 the males also, leaving the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust towards one another; males with males working shame, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was fit.
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 according as they did not think good to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind to practise unseemly 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,
being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,
30 na acambania, na athũũri Ngai, na aciinũrani, na egaathi, na etĩĩi, mathugundaga njĩra cia gwĩka ũũru, na andũ matangĩathĩkĩra aciari ao;
back-biters, hateful to 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.
void of understanding, faithless, without natural affection, 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 knowing the righteous judgment of God, that they who do such things are worthy of death, not only practise them, but have fellow delight in those who do [them].
