Warumi 1
1 Ne Paulo, nembombi va Yesu Klisite yune nilaghiwe ukhusuhiwa, nukhulekhehana ne livagili lya Nguluve.
PAUL, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2 Ele lyu livangili ililyanchoviwe khatali na vouyamalango vamwene mumbusimbe uvuvalanche.
(Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures, )
3 Nchinchova umwana va mwene, uveakholiwe mukhivumbukho ikhya Daudi khunjila eya mbili.
Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 Umwene anchoviwe ukhuta Mwana va Nguluve khuu makha ga mepo umbanche khuluvoneklulo lwa vafwele, u Yesu Klisite Dada veto.
And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
5 Khugendela umwene tupokhile uvupokhi wa kusuhiwa nu wedesi uwa lwidekho panie nekhe khelunga, khulitawa lya mwene.
By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 Pagati pa khilunga ekhi, nayumwe mwelagiwe ukhuva va Yesu Klisite.
Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:
7 Ikalata eye ya mwevoni yumwe mtama khu va Rumi, vagane nu Nguluve, mwaelagiwe ukhuva vanu vavalanche. Ulukhugu luve kwenu, nu lugano ukhuma kwa Dada veto na khuswambe uYesu Klisite.
To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Mumbologolo nikhundemya uNguluve vago khwa Yesu Kliste khuliumwe mwevoni, ulwakhuva ulwedekho lulombeliliwa mukheluga vyoni.
First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
9 Ulwakhuva u Nguluve isaidi vango, uvenikhumbombela ni numbula yango, kulimeyu ilya mwana va mwene, nduwu nitama ukhuvatambula.
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 always in my prayers;
10 Daima nchoni nidova muyesayo nchago ukhuta khujela iyavenchaga ninche nive numwe khukya khulya mwe.
Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
11 Ninogwa ukhuvavona, ukhuta nevape efikhogelwa fya numbula, ninche nivayilenche.
For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;
12 Pwu ninogwa nekhave amakha paninie numwe, khunjila iya lwidekho lwa khila munu.
That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.
13 Lino valukholo, saninogwa mlemwe ukhulumanya ukhuta, ukhuta imesekhe mingi nesagile ukhincha khulyume, lenosesigiwe. Nikha nogwaga lino ukuva nisekhe khulyumwe ndawuyelekhu vanu ava khilunga.
Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto, ) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.
14 Nidayiwa na vayunani na vahesya, avalemale na vapelwa.
I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.
15 Ulwakhuva une nilitayari ukhulumbelela elimenyu khulimwe nayumwe mwemulekhu Roma.
So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.
16 Ulwa khuva sanivona soni khulimeyu, ulwakhuva makha ga Nguluve ukhutopokha khukhila munu uveekhwedekha, khua vayahudi avakhwanda na khuva Yunani vope.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 Ulwakhuva wayelweli wa Nguluve vuvonikhe ukhuma ulwedekho, mpauha ulwedekho, nduwuyesimbiwe, “Unya lwidikho itamaga nulwidikho.”
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 Ulwakhuva uvuhegi wa Nguluve vuvonikhe ukhuma kukhyanya ni mbivi nuvutola nogwa woni uwa vanu, uvuvivi wifikha uwayelweli.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Ulwakhuva, goni givonekha khwa Nguluve galipavuvalafu khuvene. Ulwakhuva uNguluve owavulile.
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 Imbombo ncha mwene enchosanchi vonekha vunonu nchivile pavuvalafu ukhuma khiliwa ulimwenguni. Khikwelevekha ukhugendela ifinu ifipeliwe. Imbombo incho makha ga mwene khihumana nu vufwa uwa khukhuma kuvutegulilo wa vuNguluve. Ukhuma, avanu ava viva vanchila vulegefu. (aïdios g126)
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: (aïdios g126)
21 Ulwakhuva, va mayile uNguluve, savandolelage umwene khama Nguluve, savalikhusana, vavile vakhoyofu khumasage gavene, ni numbula nchavo incha vukhoyofu yaigile ekhisa.
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Valikhwiyilaga veuiyaluhara, vakhava vapelwa.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 Vakhalwandulania uvufwa wa Nguluve uvunchila vunagi khuvihwani khya munu uveanagikhe, ndiefidege, amakhanu akhayama lunde gane, ni fikhano ifikhwa fula.
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 U Nguluve akhavalekha vakhogage uvunogwe wa numbula nchavo imbivi, emivili givo kilikubediwa.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Na vene vayadwile elweli ya Nguluve ukhuva vudesi, valikhwesaya nu khugevombela imiguluve igige vakhandeka upelivavo, uviekhwi mekhiwa isikhu nchoni. Amina. (aiōn g165)
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 Ulwakuva, u Nguluve avalekhile vakhogage imbimbi nchavo enchiyasoni, ulwakhuva vaandulinie imbombo encha khatali vakha nchilekha incha khatali.
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 Vulevule, avagosi vakhanchilekha imbombo nchao ncha khatali khuvehe vavo nu khuva nu vuligu khuvene vavo. Ava vagosi khuva gosi ewavombaga inchi sancho nogelanile, valikhutole ulukoto khumbombo nchavo.
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 Ulwakhuva vabelile ukhuvanu Nguluve khuluhala lwavo, avalekhile vakhogage lyale, nchao imbivi, vavombage imbombo incho sanchinogelanile.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Vadigile nuvutulanogwa, uvuvivi, uvunogwe uvuvivi, vadigile uvunogwe, uvubudi, imbancha. Uvusyovi, na amasage amavivi.
Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Vavo vavile vasyovi, ava khehi navi khukalalila u Nguluve. Avayambancha, amatingo, ulwiginio, avene vavombo imbivi, nu vusavikhuva dwada avahonchi vavo.
Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Avene vanchila lukhala, savikhwidekha, vanchila lugano ulwa khwanda, vanchila lugano.
Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Vanchimayile indagilo ncha Nguluve, ukhuta vala avivombo imbombo incho, vanegiwa vabudiwe. Inave vivombo imbomob incho pwu viva vikhweelehana na vavo vivomba imbo incho.
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
