< Romawa 1 >
1 Bulus, bawan Yesu Almasihu, kirayayye ya zama manzo, kuma kebabbe domin bisharar Allah.
Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an Apostle, set apart to proclaim God's Good News,
2 Wannan itace bisharar da ya alkawarta tuntuni ta wurin annabawansa ta wurin tsarkakakkun littattafan sa.
which God had already promised through His Prophets in Holy Writ, concerning His Son,
3 Game da Dansa ne, haifaffe daga zuriyar Dauda ga zancen jiki.
who, as regards His human descent, belonged to the posterity of David,
4 Ta wurin tashinsa daga mattatu aka aiyana shi ya zama Dan Allah ta wurin ikon Ruhu na tsarkakewa. Yesu Almasihu Ubangijimu.
but as regards the holiness of His Spirit was decisively proved by His Resurrection to be the Son of God--I mean concerning Jesus Christ our Lord,
5 Ta wurinsa muka karbi alheri da manzanci sabo da biyayyar imani a cikin dukkan al'ummai, domin darajar sunansa.
through whom we have received grace and Apostleship in His service in order to win men to obedience to the faith, among all Gentile peoples,
6 cikin wadannan al'ummai kwa, ku ma an kiraku ku zama na Yesu Almasihu.
among whom you also, called, as you have been, to belong to Jesus Christ, are numbered:
7 Wannan wasika ga dukkanku ne da kuke cikin Roma, kaunatattu na Allah, kirayayyun mutane tsarkakakku. Bari alheri ya kasance tare daku, da salama daga Allah Ubanmu, da kuma Ubangiji Yesu Almasihu.
To all God's loved ones who are in Rome, called to be saints. May grace and peace be granted to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Abu na farko dai ina yi wa Allah na godiya ta wurin Yesu Almasihu domin ku duka, domin kuwa ana labarta bangaskiyarku ko ina a cikin dukkan duniya.
First of all, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for what He has done for all of you; for the report of your faith is spreading through the whole world.
9 Domin kuwa Allah shi ne shaida ta, wanda nake bautawa a cikin ruhuna a cikin bisharar Dansa, yadda a koyaushe na ke ambaton ku.
I call God to witness--to whom I render priestly and spiritual service by telling the Good News about His Son-- how unceasingly I make mention of you in His presence,
10 A kullum ina roko cikin addu'o'ina domin ta kowanne hali in yi nasarar zuwa gare ku da izinin Allah.
always in my prayers entreating that now, at length, if such be His will, the way may by some means be made clear for me to come to you.
11 Gama ina marmarin ganin ku, domin in baku wata baiwa ta ruhaniya, domin in karfafa ku.
For I am longing to see you, in order to convey to you some spiritual help, so that you may be strengthened;
12 Wato ina dokin in sami cikakkiyar karfafawa a cikin ku, ta wurin bangaskiyar junanmu, wato tawa da taku.
in other words that while I am among you we may be mutually encouraged by one another's faith, yours and mine.
13 Yanzu fa bana so ku rasa sani, yan'uwa, sau da yawa nake yin niyyar zuwa wurinku, amma har yanzu hakan din bata samu ba. Na so yin hakan din ne don in sami 'ya'ya na ruhu a cikinku kamar dai yadda ya ke a sauran Al'ummai.
And I desire you to know, brethren, that I have many a time intended to come to you--though until now I have been disappointed--in order that among you also I might gather some fruit from my labours, as I have already done among the rest of the Gentile nations.
14 Ina dauke da nawayar Hellinawa da ta sauran jama'a, masu hikima da marasa hikima.
I am already under obligations alike to Greek-speaking races and to others, to cultured and to uncultured people:
15 Don a shirye na ke in sanar da bishara a gare ku, ku da kuke cikin Roma.
so that for my part I am willing and eager to proclaim the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
16 Don kuwa ni ba na jin kunyar yin bishara, don ita ce ikon Allah don samun ceto ga duk wanda ya gaskata, da farko dai Yahudawa kana kuma Hellinawa,
For I am not ashamed of the Good News. It is God's power which is at work for the salvation of every one who believes--the Jew first, and then the Gentile.
17 Domin a cikin ta adalcin Allah ya bayyana daga bangaskiy zuwa bangaskiya, kamar yadda yake a rubuce, “Mai adalci zai rayu ne tawurin bangaskiya.”
For in the Good News a righteousness which comes from God is being revealed, depending on faith and tending to produce faith; as the Scripture has it, "The righteous man shall live by faith."
18 Domin fushin Allah ya bayyana ne daga sama gaba da rashin ibada da rashin adalci na yan'adam, wadanda suke danne gaskiya ta wurin rashin adalcin su.
For God's anger is being revealed from Heaven against all impiety and against the iniquity of men who through iniquity suppress the truth. God is angry:
19 Dalili kuwa abinda yakamata a sani game da Allah a bayyane ya ke a gare su. Domin kuwa Allah ya bayyana masu shi a zahiri.
because what may be known about Him is plain to their inmost consciousness; for He Himself has made it plain to them.
20 Domin al'amuransa da ba'a iya gani a bayyane suke tun halittar duniya. A na iya gane su ta wurin halitatattun abubuwa. Wadannan al'amura kuwa sune madawwamin ikonsa da Allahntakarsa. Sakamakon haka, wadannan mutane ba su da hujja. (aïdios )
For, from the very creation of the world, His invisible perfections--namely His eternal power and divine nature--have been rendered intelligible and clearly visible by His works, so that these men are without excuse. (aïdios )
21 Dalili kuwa, koda suna jin sun san Allah, amma basu darajanta shi a matsayin Allah ba, ko kuma su nuna masa godiya. Maimakon haka, suka zama wawaye a cikin tunaninsu, zukatansu marasa tunani sun duhunta.
For when they had come to know God, they did not give Him glory as God nor render Him thanks, but they became absorbed in useless discussions, and their senseless minds were darkened.
22 Suna daukar kansu akan masu hikima ne su, amma sai ga su sun zama wawaye.
While boasting of their wisdom they became utter fools,
23 Sun musanya daukakar Allah madawwami da ta kamannin abubuwan da basa dawwama, kamar mutum, da tsuntsaye, da dabbobi masu kafafu hurhudu, da masu jan ciki.
and, instead of worshipping the imperishable God, they worshipped images resembling perishable man or resembling birds or beasts or reptiles.
24 Saboda haka Allah ya bashe su ga sha'awoyin kazantar zukatansu, su wulakantar da jukunansu a junansu.
For this reason, in accordance with their own depraved cravings, God gave them up to uncleanness, allowing them to dishonour their bodies among themselves with impurity.
25 Sune suka musanya gaskiyar Allah da karya, Kuma suke sujada da bauta ga halittaccen abu, maimakon Mahaliccin, Wanda yake abin yabo har abada. Amin. (aiōn )
For they had bartered the reality of God for what is unreal, and had offered divine honours and religious service to created things, rather than to the Creator--He who is for ever blessed. Amen. (aiōn )
26 Saboda haka Allah ya bashe su, ga sha'awowin su na lalata da wulakanci, har matansu suka canza ka'idar jima'i da aka saba zuwa madigo mace da mace.
This then is the reason why God gave them up to vile passions. For not only did the women among them exchange the natural use of their bodies for one which is contrary to nature, but the men also,
27 Mazajensu ma suka sauya ka'idar jima'i tsakanin mace da miji zuwa namiji da namiji suna yin aikin lalata. Maza su na kwana da maza suna aikata aikin ban kyama, suna kuwa girbe sakamakon aiknsu na ban kyama.
in just the same way--neglecting that for which nature intends women--burned with passion towards one another, men practising shameful vice with men, and receiving in their own selves the reward which necessarily followed their misconduct.
28 Tunda shike ba su amince da Allah a cikkin al'amuransu ba, Allah ya bashe su ga bataccen hankalinsu, su aikata wadannan munanan abubuwa.
And just as they had refused to continue to have a full knowledge of God, so it was to utterly worthless minds that God gave them up, for them to do things which should not be done.
29 Suna cike da dukkan rashin adalci, mugunta, kyashi, keta, kuma cike da kishi, kisan kai, tarzoma, makirci, da kuma munanan manufafofi.
Their hearts overflowed with all sorts of dishonesty, mischief, greed, malice. They were full of envy and murder, and were quarrelsome, crafty, and spiteful.
30 Masu gulma da kage, makiyan Allah. Masu tada zaune tsaye, masu taurin kai, da ruba, masu kaga kowadanne miyagun abubuwa, kuma masu kin yin biyayya ga iyayensu.
They were secret backbiters, open slanderers; hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful; inventors of new forms of sin, disobedient to parents, destitute of common sense,
31 Masu duhun zuciya; masu cin amana, marasa soyayya, da kuma rashin tausayi.
faithless to their promises, without natural affection, without human pity.
32 Suna sane da tsarin Allah cewa masu yin irin wadannan al'amura sun cancanci hukuncin mutuwa. Ba kuwa yin wadannan abubuwan ka dai suke yi ba, harma goyon bayan masu yinsu suke yi.
In short, though knowing full well the sentence which God pronounces against actions such as theirs, as things which deserve death, they not only practise them, but even encourage and applaud others who do them.
