Roma Yaaba 15

1 Mɔlane, tinba yaaba n pia u paalu ń gbadi a tadma tadingu niima nni, ki da dongi ti yuli.

We who are strong ought to bear with the shortcomings of the weak and not to please ourselves.

2 Ti siig, yuakuli ń ya tie ti yaali n ŋani, ki mangi o lielo pali, klan pugni o dudugdi.

Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.

3 Kelima bá Kiristo bo ki dongi o yuli. O bo li tie nani lan diani maama yeni, yaaba n den sugdi a sugdi guani n yuli po.”

For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.”

4 Kelima, ban bo diani ya diani kuli tie tinba ya tundma po i, ke a i diani ń wangi ya juunli yeni yin paandi ti pala maama, tin fidi ki baa li dandanli.

For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

5 N miadi ke li juunli yeni mi baagima Tienu ń cedi yuakuli ń taa yantiayenli o lielo po nani Jesu Kiristo yeni.

Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,

6 Ke tin fidi ki taani yantiayenli yeni ñɔyenbu, ki fidi ki kpiagi ti Diedo Jesu Kiristo Báa yeni O Tienu.

so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

7 Lanwani ii, yin ya gaani i lieba cangu nani Kiristo ń ga i cangu maama ke wan kpiagi U Tienu yeli.

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring glory to God.

8 Kelima, n yedi ke Kiristo yua ku kɔnciagu naciemo ki waani U Tienu mɔmɔni, ke lan dɔgdi ki waani wan tieni yeni i yaajanba ya ñɔnianu.

For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs,

9 Yeni bi nilanba ke ban tieni U Tienu balga, o niñingbadma po. Nani lan diani maama, “Lanyognu n kpiagi a yeli bi nilanba siiga, ki yiini ki dondi a yeli.”

so that the Gentiles may glorify God for His mercy. As it is written: “Therefore I will praise You among the Gentiles; I will sing hymns to Your name.”

10 Li go diani, “Mangi mani i pala, bi nilanba, yinba yeni i dogtieba.”

Again, it says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people.”

11 Ki go diani, “Dondi mani O Diedo, yinba bi nilanba kuli; bi dogtieba kuli ń dondi o.”

And again: “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles, and extol Him, all you peoples.”

12 Isayi go yedi, “Li benpaali ba pudi Jese cugli nni, ki fii, ki diedi bi nilanba. Bi nilanba ba baa li dandanli o po.”

And once more, Isaiah says: “The Root of Jesse will appear, One who will arise to rule over the Gentiles; in Him the Gentiles will put their hope.”

13 Mɔlane, N miadi ke U Tienu dandanli ń gbieni yi yeni ti dudugdi pamanli yeni mi yanduanma, ke yin ya gbie yeni li dandanli Mi Foŋanma paalu po.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

14 N kpiiba, mini mɔno pali paa i po, N pali paa i po, kelima yinba mɔno gbie yeni ti ŋandi, ki gbie yeni banmabuoli kuli. N pali go paa i po kelima, i ba fidi ki ya tigi i lieba.

I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, brimming with knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

15 N go dangi yi ya tisɔnkaali ne yeni li pamancianli, ki bua min tiadi yi, kelima U tienu ń puni nni ya paabu po.

However, I have written you a bold reminder on some points, because of the grace God has given me

16 Li paabu tie ke n ba tua Jesu Kiristo n ba sɔni ya naaciemo bi nilanba siiga. Ke min tua salga yidka, ki waani ba U Tienu laabaalŋamo. N ba tieni lani, lan todi, bi nilanba paabu ń tua ya paabu n ŋani ki gbie yeni mi Foŋanma.

to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

17 N pamancianli tie ke min kpiagi Jesu Kiristo yeli yeni U Tienu ń tieni ya bona kuli.

Therefore I exult in Christ Jesus in my service to God.

18 Kelima mii pia papaali ki ba yedi libakuli kase Kiristo ń sɔni ya tuonli n po, ki ba cedi bi nilanba ń la yaalidgu yeni u paaciamu tuona, ki cɔlni.

I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word and deed,

19 Mi Foŋanma paaciamu po min cili Jerusalema yeni li tinkundogi, ki ban pundi hali Iliri, min fidi ki yadi ki waani Kiristo laabaalŋamo.

by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. So from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.

20 Lanya sanu nni i, ke n payianu den tie ke min yadi, ki waanu o laabaalŋamo, ama, li ki tie ban bani Kiristo yeli naankani ka, li tieni ke min da ti gedi ki maa nitiano ń bili ya fiagli po i.

In this way I have aspired to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation.

21 Nani lan diani maama: “Yaaba n ki kpeli ki baa li maalma o maama po, ba bandi o,” ke yaaba n ki kpeli ki gbadi mo ba gbadi niima nni.

Rather, as it is written: “Those who were not told about Him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.”

22 Lanya po i, ke li pani nni ke mi cua i kani.

That is why I have often been hindered from coming to you.

23 Ama, mɔlane, N ji ki pia kaanu, ki ba kali ya tinbuali ne, li ki luo bina ke N lingi ke min pundi i kani.

But now that there are no further opportunities for me in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to visit you,

24 Lanwani ii, N ya caa, Esipañi, n ba jadi i kani, yin ciani nni, li waagi ke n jiki baa i yegnu.

I hope to see you on my way to Spain. And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can equip me for my journey.

25 Mɔlane, N caa Jerusalema, ki bua sɔni bi dogkaaba po.

Now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem to serve the saints there.

26 Kelima, li baatie pamancianli i, Maseduani yeni Acihaya yaaba po, ke ban teni bu paabu, ki todi talginba, Jeruslema dugkaaba siiga.

For Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.

27 Nn, li den tie bi po pamancianli i, yende, bi tie bi pandanba i. Kelima, bi nilanba ya baa bi yenpaabu, li tie ke bimo ń baa bikani ŋanduna bona i.

They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual blessings, they are obligated to minister to them with material blessings.

28 Lanwani ii, N ya sɔni lanya tuonli ki gbeni, ki diidi ki sua ke min taani ya paabu kuli kua bi nui nni, N ya caa Esipañi, N ba tɔgni i kani.

So after I have completed this service and have safely delivered this bounty to them, I will set off to Spain by way of you.

29 N bani ke min ba pundi i kani, li ba sua ke i kuli gbie yeni Kiristo yediŋanma i.

I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.

30 N kpiiba, Mɔlane, ti Diedo Jesu Kiristo yeli po, yeni Foŋanma buama po, N tigi yi, ki paandi i pala, ke yin mua ti jadi yin jaandi ki miadi U Tienu ya yognu kuli, ki todi nni.

Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.

31 Yin ya jaandi ki miadi ke Jude yaaba yaaba n ki cɔlni yeni ń ŋa nni, min fuodi, ke Jerusalema dugkaaba pali ń mangi n tuonli po.

Pray that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there,

32 Ya jaandi mani, ki mia ke U Tienu buama po, ke min pundi i kani yeni li pamanli, ki taani yeni yi ki baa mi fuoma.

so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.

33 N miadi ke Mi yanduanma Tienu ń ya ye yeni ikuli. Ami

The God of peace be with all of you. Amen.
