Warumi 11
1 Pu leino niita, pu, uNguluve avabeilile avanu vamwene? Ndeili na padebe. Ulwakhuva une nayune neili Mwisraeli, eikhivumbukhu khya Abrahamu, vakhikolo eikhya Benyamini.
I ask then, has God rejected his people? Absolutely not. For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 UNguluve savabele avanu vamwene, uvuavamanyile ukhuhuma khuvulenguleilo. Pu samlumanyile uvuveige wiita khiikhi ukhukongana nu Eliya, umuasimeleihinche khwa uNguluve savuli ya Vaisraeli?
God did not reject his people, which he foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:
3 “Ntwa vavabudile avasuhwa vakho, navene vanchinanginie inekhelo nchakho, une nei mwene nene niesiigile, navene vilonda uwumi wango.”
"Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have broken down your altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life."
4 Pu uwamule wa Nguluve wiita khiikhi khyulyuve? “Neileiveikhile savuli yango avaalufu saba yango avusavikhufugameela amafugamilo uBaali.”
But how does God answer him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand people, who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
5 Paninie neiyo, usiekhe ugu leino pu khuvaale uvuvasigile savu ya vuhale wa luhungu.
Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
6 Pui leino yiengave savuli ya luhungu, pusayiva mumivombele. pu apo uluhungu pusalwiva luhungu.
And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace.
7 Khyu khinu khikhi leino? eikhyu uIsrael alikhulonda, sakhivone, pu avahaliwa vakhiwene, na vaange vakhasya.
What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he did not obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.
8 Nduvuyeisimbiwe: “Unguluve avapile einumbula eiyavubungefu, amiho ukhula valekhe ukhulola, ni mbulukhutu ukhuta valekhe ukhupuleikha, pupakha eilelo eiye.”
According as it is written, God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.
9 Vape uDaudi iita, “Nchilekhe imesa nchavo nchive nyaafu, neimitego gwa khwipeinja, nukhwitavuleila khuvene.
David says, "Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.
10 Galekhe amiho gavo gave niehisi pu valekhe ukhulola. Ukhavinamye emisana gyavo khitaduga.”
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can't see, and their backs be bent continually."
11 Leino niita, “Puvei, kuvinche nu khugwa?” Yelekhe ukhuva ewo lusikhu. Puleino ukhulemwa khwa veene, uvupokhi vufikhe khuvapanji, ukhuta avene vavo vavone wifu.
I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? Absolutely not. But by their fall salvation has come to the non-Jews, to provoke them to jealousy.
12 Leino einave ukhulemwa khwavo vukaviwa khilunga, nu puyiengave uvufuve waavo vukavi wavapanji, pukhigelelo khiekhi eikhilutelile puyeve khunkwila nila khwavo?
Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the non-Jews; how much more their fullness?
13 Na leino leino ninchova numwe mwie vunu va panji, neivile isuhwa khuvanu avajilunga ifinge, nikhigineihincha eimbombo ya vutangeli wango.
For I speak to you who are the non-Jews. Since then as I am an apostle to the non-Jews, I glorify my ministry;
14 Pamo yanikhuvapela uwifu avaleimbeili gumo nune, pano ya tukhuvapokha vaninie.
if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.
15 Pu eingave ukhubeliwa khwavo lweideha no lwa khilunga, ukhyupeileiliwa khwavo ya khwiva ndakhikhi pu uwumi uwakhuhuma khuvunchukha?
For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?
16 Einave isekhe itanchi khibana vuyileiwo khu nongeya vutine. Einave undela khibana pu amasasi nagope wuwuwa.
If the first part is holy, so is the whole batch. If the root is holy, so are the branches.
17 Pu einave amasasi maninie gageidewe, uve, lisasi lya msitu lya Mzeituni, ugugwavyaliwe muvene nu pungave waleepyo paninie navene eimilela gya vukani wa Mizeituni.
But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them, and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree;
18 Ulekhe ukhwiginia mumasasi, pu unave vukhiginia saveve yuve vukhugitanga emilela, pu emilela gikhukhutanga uve.
do not boast over the branches. But if you boast, it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.
19 Puleino ayawita, “Amaswato gagidiewe ukhuta neivuliwe mukhikolo.
You will say then, "Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in."
20 Eiyo lweli, savuli ya khusita ukhwideekha khwavo vagedeiwe, pu uve wa eimile ulukangafu savuli ya lweideikho lwakho. Ulekhe ukwisageila yuve pakyanya fincho pu dwaadage.
True; by their unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear;
21 Pu ulwakhuva eingave uNguluve sagalekhe lenche amaswato amatengule, sakha khuhigile uve na yuve.
for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.
22 Lola, leino, imbombo inonu nu vukali wa Nguluve. Khuluvafu lumo, uvukali wa inchile khuva yuta vala avagwile. Pu khuluvafu ulunge, uluhungu lwa Nguluve lukhwincha palyuve ungave yawinchiga muvunonu wa mwene. Einave ate uve nayuveayavubeiliwa.
See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.
23 Na eingave savakhendelelage mukhusitakhwideekha kwavo, yavi valiwa khange. Ulwa khuva uNguluve alei na makha agakhuvyaleila khange.
They also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
24 Pu ulwakhuva umwe mungave mwageidewe khunji khugugwa gwa mbutengulielo Mzeituni gwa msitu, puleino eikyavulenguleilo khileivunge Mzeituni unonu pu sayiva fiva ukhulutilila fincho ava yuta?
For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 Ulwa khuva valokolo saninogwa msite ughulumanya ukhukongana ukhu kongana nei siri eiye, ukhuta mulekhe ukhuva nu luhala mumisagiele gyienyo yumwe. Ei siri eiye khukhuta uvukafu vuhumile mu Israeli, imakha ukhunchikwilanila khwa filunga yakhiva khwinchile.
For I do not desire you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you won't be wise in your own conceits, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the non-Jews has come in,
26 Puleino ava Israeli vooni yavipokhiwa, ndu unyeisimbiwe: “Ukhuhuma khu Sayuni ikhwincha upokhi, pu ayihencha uvuvivi ukhuhuma khwa Yakobo.
and so all Israel will be saved. Even as it is written, "There will come out of Zion the Deliverer; he will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.
27 Na eili puyaliva ndagano pu paninie na veene useikhi uguyakhiva nihencha imbivi nchaavo.”
This is my covenant to them, when I will take away their sins."
28 Khuluvafu lumo ukhu kongana neilivangeili, vivipeiliwa savuli yienyo. Khuluvafu ulunge ukhukonga na vuhale wa Nguluve, vavyaliwe savuli ya vankukhu yavo.
Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are loved for the fathers' sake.
29 Ulwa khuv uluhombo ni nyeilango yu Nguluve sayigevukha.
For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
30 Ulwakhuva pakhwanda umwe mwale vagolo va Nguluve, puleino mulyupeilile uluhungu lwa Nguluve savuli ya khugalukha kwavo.
For as you in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience,
31 Khunjila yeiyeiyo, leino ava yuta ava vagalwikhe, pu eilyu leivonikhe khukhuta savuli ya khisa ikyu muhungukhiwe umwe mvahile ukhwambeilila uluhungu.
even so these also have now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they may now also obtain mercy.
32 Ulwakhuva uNguluve avadeindile avanu vooni muvugalukhi, ukhuta pwava vonele eikhisa vooni. (eleēsē g1653)
For God has bound everyone over to disobedience, that he might have mercy on all. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Umunchi velile mbaha uvukavi nu luhungu nu vumanyi wa Nguluve! Savunchingakhimchi wa uvuheigi wa mwene, ni njeila ncha mwene sanchi manyikhikha!
Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God. How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out.
34 “Pu veini uvyakhavu manyile uvufumbwe wantwa? puveini va masago khumwene?
For "Who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?"
35 Pu veini taasi agelieli ukhupa eikhinu uNguluve pu ahombiwe khange?”
"Or who has first given to him, and it will be repaid to him again?"
