Ndị Rom 4
1 Gịnị ka anyị nwere ikwu banyere Ebraham, nna nna anyị na o nwetara ihe niile site nʼanụ ahụ?
What thanne schulen we seie, that Abraham oure fadir aftir the flesch foond?
2 A sị na a gụrụ Ebraham dịka onye ezi omume site nʼọrụ aka ya, ọ gaara enwe ihe ọ ga-eji anya isi, ma na ọ bụghị nʼihu Chineke.
For if Abraham is iustified of werkis of the lawe, he hath glorie, but not anentis God.
3 Ma gịnị ka akwụkwọ nsọ kwuru? “Ebraham kweere na Chineke, a gụrụ nke a nye ya dị ka ezi omume.”
For what seith the scripture? Abraham bileued to God, and it was arettid to him to riytwisnesse.
4 Mgbe mmadụ rụrụ ọrụ, ụgwọ ọrụ a kwụrụ ya abụghị onyinye, kama ọ bụ ihe ruru ya nʼihi ọrụ ọ rụrụ.
And to hym that worchith mede is not arettid bi grace, but bi dette.
5 Ma nye onye na-enweghị ọrụ ma tinye okwukwe ya na onye ahụ na-agụnye ndị ajọọ omume dịka ndị ezi omume, a ga-eji okwukwe ya gụnyere ya dịka ezi omume.
Sotheli to hym that worchith not, but bileueth in to hym that iustefieth a wickid man, his feith is arettid to riytwisnesse, aftir the purpos of Goddis grace.
6 Devid nʼonwe ya kwukwara banyere ọṅụ dịịrị onye ọbụla Chineke gụrụ nʼonye ezi omume nʼagbanyeghị ọrụ ya.
As Dauid seith the blessidnesse of a man, whom God acceptith, he yyueth to hym riytwisnesse with outen werkis of the lawe,
7 “Ngọzị na-adịrị ndị a gbaghaara ajọ omume ha niile, ndị ekpuchikwara mmehie ha niile.
Blessid ben thei, whos wickidnessis ben foryouun, and whos synnes ben hid.
8 Ngọzị na-adịrị nwoke ahụ, onye Onyenwe anyị na-adịghị agụnyere mmehie ya.”
Blessid is that man, to whom God arettide not synne.
9 Ngọzị a ọ dịrị naanị ndị e biri ugwu ka ọ bụ nyekwa ndị a na-ebighị ugwu? Ihe anyị na-ekwu bụ na a gụrụ okwukwe Ebraham dị ka ezi omume nye ya.
Thanne whether dwellith this blisfulnesse oneli in circumcisioun, or also in prepucie? For we seien, that the feith was arettid to Abraham to riytwisnesse.
10 Olee mgbe a gụrụ ya nye ya? Ọ bụ tupu e bie ya ugwu, ka ọ bụ mgbe e bichara ya ugwu? Ọ bụghị mgbe e bichara ya ugwu kama ọ bụ tupu e bie ya ugwu.
Hou thanne was it arettid? in circumcisioun, or in prepucie? Not in circumcisioun, but in prepucie.
11 Ọ natara ihe ịrịbama nke obibi ugwu dịka akara nke ezi omume nke okwukwe o nwere mgbe ọ nọ na-ebighị ugwu. Nke a bụ ime ya nna ndị niile kweerenụ, ndị ahụ ọ gụrụ dịka ndị ezi omume, ọ bụ ezie na ha bụ ndị a na-ebighị ugwu.
And he took a signe of circumcisioun, a tokenyng of riytwisnesse of the feith which is in prepucie, that he be fadir of alle men bileuynge bi prepucie, that it be arettid also to hem to riytwisnesse;
12 Nʼụzọ dị otu a kwa, ọ bụ nna ndị niile e biri ugwu. Ndụ ya na-egosikwa ha na ọ bụghị obibi ugwu ha na-azọpụta ha, kama ọ bụ okwukwe ha. Nʼihi na Chineke nabatara Ebraham naanị site nʼokwukwe o nwere tupu e bie ya ugwu.
and that he be fadir of circumcisioun, not onely to hem that ben of circumcisioun, but also to hem that suen the steppis of the feith, which feith is in prepucie of oure fader Abraham.
13 Nkwa o kwere Ebraham na agbụrụ ya na ha ga-eketa ụwa abụghị site nʼidebe iwu, kama ọ bụ site nʼezi omume nke okwukwe.
For not bi the lawe is biheest to Abraham, or to his seed, that he schulde be eir of the world, but bi the riytwisnesse of feith.
14 Nʼihi na, ọ bụrụ na ndị a ga-enye ihe e kwere na nkwa bụ ndị na-edebe iwu, inwe okwukwe abakwaghị uru, nkwa ahụ enwekwaghị isi ọbụla.
For if thei that ben of the lawe, ben eiris, feith is distried, biheest is don awey.
15 Nʼihi na iwu nʼonwe ya na-eme ka ọnụma bịa. Ma ebe iwu na-adịghị, mmehie adịghịkwa.
For the lawe worchith wraththe; for where is no lawe, there is no trespas, nethir is trespassyng.
16 Ya mere, nkwa ahụ na-abịa site nʼokwukwe, ka ọ bụrụ naanị site nʼamara ka e ji mee ka ụmụ ya niile nweta ya, ọ bụghị naanị nye ndị nọ nʼokpuru iwu, kama ọ bụkwa nye ndị nwere ụdị okwukwe Ebraham. Nʼihi na ọ bụ nna anyị niile.
Therfor riytfulnesse is of the feith, that bi grace biheeste be stable to ech seed, not to that seed oneli that is of the lawe, but to that that is of the feith of Abraham, which is fadir of vs alle.
17 Dịka e dere ya, “Emeela m gị nna nke ọtụtụ mba.” Ya mere, nʼihu Chineke ahụ bụ onye o kweenyere nʼime ya, bụ onye ahụ na-eme ka ndị nwụrụ anwụ dịkwa ndụ ọzọ, onye na-akpọkwa ihe ndị na-adịbụghị, mee ka ha dịrị.
As it is writun, For Y haue set thee fadir of many folkis, bifor God to whom thou hast bileued. Which God quykeneth deed men, and clepith tho thingis that ben not, as tho that ben.
18 Ọ bụladị mgbe olileanya gasịrị, o kwenyere na ya ga-abụ nna nke ọtụtụ mba, dịka ihe a gwara ya si dị, “Otu a ka mkpụrụ gị ga-adị.”
Which Abraham ayens hope bileuede in to hope, that he schulde be maad fader of many folkis, as it was seid to hym, Thus schal thi seed be, as the sterris of heuene, and as the grauel that is in the brenke of the see.
19 Ọ daghị mba nʼokwukwe ọ bụladị mgbe ọ matara na ya akala nka nʼahụ, nʼihi na ọ gbaruola otu narị afọ, tinyekwara na akpanwa Sera bụ ihe nwụrụ anwụ.
And he was not maad vnstidfast in the bileue, nether he biheelde his bodi thanne nyy deed, whanne he was almost of an hundrid yeer, ne the wombe of Sare nyy deed.
20 Ọ dịghị mgbe ọbụla o nwere obi abụọ na Chineke agaghị emezu ihe niile o kwere ya na nkwa. Kama, okwukwe ya mere ka ọ gbasie ike, ka ọ na-enye Chineke otuto.
Also in the biheeste of God he doutide not with vntrist; but he was coumfortid in bileue,
21 O nwere otu obi na Chineke pụrụ imezu ihe niile ọbụla o kwere na nkwa.
yyuynge glorie to God, witynge moost fulli that what euere thingis God hath bihiyt, he is myyti also to do.
22 Ọ bụ nʼihi ya ka e ji gụọ nke a nye ya dị ka ezi omume.
Therfor it was arettid to hym to riytwisnesse.
23 Okwu ndị a, “A gụrụ ya nye ya dịka onye ezi omume,” edeghị ya naanị maka ya.
And it is not writun oneli for him, that it was arettid to hym to riytwisnesse,
24 Kama e dere ya nʼihi anyị bụ ndị kwere nʼonye ahụ mere ka Onyenwe anyị Jisọs si nʼọnwụ bilie.
but also for vs, to whiche it schal be arettid, that bileuen in him that reiside oure Lord Jhesu Crist fro deeth.
25 Onye a rara nye ka ọ nwụọ nʼihi mmehie anyị niile, ma e mere ka o si nʼọnwụ bilie ka anyị bụrụ ndị a gụrụ dịka ndị ezi omume.
Which was bitakun for oure synnes, and roos ayen for oure iustefiyng.
