< Maroma 15 >

1 Linu kwetu tukolete tu swanela ku kutusa bufokoli bu ba fokola, imi ni kusa litabisa tubene.
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Tusiye zumwi ni zumwi kwetu atabise ya bambene naye kwezina zi lotu, ili kuti a zakwe naye.
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
3 Mi ni heiba Kirisite kena abali tabisi mwine. Nihakubulyo, ibena bo bulyo sina mukuñolelwe, “Matapa abo ba bamituki aba wili hangu.”
For even Christ did not please himself. But, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fell on me."
4 Kakuti zonse zi bañoletwe ku masule ziba ñolwa che intaelo zetu, ili kuti che inkulonde ni che insusuwezo ya mañolo tube ni insepo.
For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
5 Linu Ireeza we inkulonde ni insusuwezo a mihe mizezo iswana kuzwilila kwa Jesu Kirisite.
Now the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Christ Jesus,
6 A pange bulyo ili kuti cha muzezo umwina ni mulomo umwina mutembe Ireeza ni Isi wa Simwine wetu Jesu Kirisite.
that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Kuzwaho mutambule zumwi ni zumwi sina Kirisite mwa ba mitambwili, chentumbo ya Ireeza.
Therefore accept one another, even as Christ also accepted you, to the glory of God.
8 Chingi ni wamba bulyo Kirisite abapangwa buhikana bwa mupato kwi neku lyo buniti bwa Ireeza, cha kwi zuzikiza insepiso zi bahewa ku bazazi,
Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
9 mi ku Basikunze ni kuha ikanya kwa Ireeza cha chishemo chakwe. Kwina bulyo sina mu kuñolelwe, “Kuzwaho kanihe ikanya mukati ka Basikunze ni kuzimba intumbo che zina lyako.”
and that the non-Jews might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "therefore I will give praise to you among the non-Jews, and sing to your name."
10 Hape iti, “Musange, inwe mu Basikunze, ni bantu bakwe.”
Again he says, "Rejoice, you nations, with his people."
11 Mi hape, “Mutembe Simwine, mubose Basikunze; musiye bantu bonse ba mutembe.”
Again, "Praise the Lord, all you nations. Let all the peoples praise him."
12 Hape, Isaya uti, “Kakube ni muhisi wa Jese, mi iye yesa buke ku yendisa hewulu li Basikunze. Basikunze ka babe ni insepo mwali.”
Again, Isaiah says, "There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the peoples; in him will the nations hope."
13 Linu Ireeza we insepo amizuze kusanga ni inkozo yonse cha ku zumina, ili kuti mube ni ku kwatinsana munsepo, cha ziho zo Luhuho Lujolola.
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
14 Name ni mwine ni zuwisisa chenu, ba mwangu. Ni zuwisisa kuti nanwe bulyo mwi zwile bulotu, kwizula inzibo yonse. Ni zuwisisa kuti nanwe bulyo muwola kuli nyemuna zumwi ni zumwi.
I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
15 Kono ni miñolela cha bundume bungi kwenu cha zintu zimwi ili ku mihupulisa hape, chebaka lye mpo ibahewa ime cha Ireeza.
But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
16 Iyi mpo ibali kuti ni swanela ku ba ni muhikana wa Jesu Kirisite yo tumitwe ku Basikunze, kuha sina mupurisita ivangeli ya Ireeza. Ni swanela kutenda bulyo ili kuti inubu i Basikunze pona chi itambulwa, ku jolozwa cha Luhuho Lujolola.
that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the non-Jews, serving as a priest the Good News of God, that the offering up of the non-Jews might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
17 Imi kusanga kwangu kwina mwa Jesu Kirisite ni muzintu za Ireeza.
I have therefore my boasting in Christ Jesus in things pertaining to God.
18 Njikuti kese ni wambe chimwi kwande yecho Kirisite cha ba maniselezi kuzwa kwangu cha ku kuteka ku Basikunze. Izi zintu zitendwa cha linzwii ni mutendo,
For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Christ worked through me, for the obedience of the non-Jews, by word and deed,
19 cha ziho za zisupo ni zikomokisa, ni cha ziho za Luhuho Lujolola. Ichi chi bapangahali bulyo kuti kuzwa mwa Jerusalema, mi ni kuzimbuluka umo mane ku kasika kwa Iliriko, ili kuti niwole kutwala linzwi lya Kirisite cho kwizula.
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ.
20 Che iyi nzila, intakazo yangu ibali ya kuwamba ivangeli, kono isiñi kwe zibitwe Kirisite chezina, ili kuti kanzi ni zaki hewulu lya mutomo wa zumwi muntu.
And in this way I desire to preach the Good News where Christ was not known, that I might not build on another's foundation.
21 Mukwikalile sina mu kuñolwe: “Abo kubali basena ba ba wambilwe zakwe mwize mu mubone, mi nabo basena ba bazuwi kaba zuwe.”
But, as it is written, "Those who were not told about him, they will see, and those who have not heard, they will understand."
22 Kuzwaho ni ba kaniswa tungi kukwiza kwenu.
Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
23 Kono hanu, ka nisina chibaka mwezi zikiliti, mi ni ba lyolelwe cha zillimo zingi kwiza kwenu.
but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
24 Monse muniyendela kwa Sipeini, ni sepa ku mibona ha nihita, mi ni ku nisindikizwa munzila chenu, hani mana ku likola kuli kopanya nanwe che nako zana.
whenever I journey to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
25 Kono hanu ni kaya kwa Jerusalema kuka tendela ba zumine.
But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.
26 Sina hakubali kulotu ku tabisa kwa Masedonia ni Akaya kuha chimwi ku basena mukati ka bazumine mwa Jerusalema.
For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.
27 Eee, ku bali kutabiswa kwabo, imi, luli, cho kuti ba bali ku bakolota. Mi heiba Basikunze ba bali abeli muzintu zabo za luhuho, ba bakolota nabo cha ku batenda muzintu zi boneka.
Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the non-Jewish people have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
28 Kuzwaho, ha ni mana uwu mutendo ni ku bona kuti batambula zonse zi baletwa, ka ni yende kwa Sipeini ni ku mipotela hani hita.
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
29 Nizi kuti ha nikeza kwenu kani ni ze mu kwizula che mbuyoti ya Kirisite
I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.
30 Hanu ni mi susuweza, ba mwangu, cha Simwine wetu Jesu Kirisite, imi ni chelato lya Luhuho, kuti mulike hahulu mubonse name mwi intampelo kwa Ireeza changu.
Now I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
31 Mulapele kuti ni bukelezwe kwa bana basa kuteki mwa Judea, ili kuti kutenda kwangu mwa Jerusalema ku tambulwe ku bazumine.
that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
32 Mulapele kuti ni ze kwenu che intabo che intato ya Ireeza, ili kuti Ime, hamwina nanwe, ni wane impumulo.
that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
33 Mi Ireeza we inkozo abe nanwe mubonse. Amen.
Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
