Abaruumi 2
1 Gwe anenya omuntu omulala, okola ebibi bye bimu ne by’onenyeza omuntu oyo. Kyonoova olema okubeera n’eky’okuwoza, kubanga bw’okola bw’otyo, weesalira wekka omusango.
Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, every one judging. For in whatsoever thou art judging another, thou art condemning thyself; for thou judging art doing the same things.
2 Naye kaakano, tumanyi nga Katonda mutuufu okunenya abo abakola ebiri ng’ebyo.
For we know that the judgment of God according to truth is against those doing such things.
3 Naye ggwe omuntu obuntu, akola ebiri ng’ebyo, kyokka n’onenya abantu abalala, olowooza nga Katonda alikuleka?
But do you consider this, O man, judging those doing such things, and doing the same, that you shall escape the judgment of God?
4 Oba onyooma ekisa kya Katonda ekingi, n’okugumiikiriza kwe n’obukwatampola bwe? Tomanyi ng’ekisa kya Katonda kikuleeta mu kwenenya?
Do you look with contempt upon the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God is leading you to repentance?
5 Naye olw’obukakanyavu bwo n’omutima oguteenenya, weeterekera ekiruyi ku lunaku lw’ekiruyi n’okubikkulirwa, Katonda lw’alisalirako omusango ogw’obutuukirivu.
But according to thy hardness and thy impenitent heart, thou art treasuring up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6 Katonda aliwa buli omu empeera esaanira ebikolwa bye.
who will give to each one according to his works:
7 Aliwa obulamu obutaggwaawo abo abaakola obulungi, nga balina essuubi ery’okuweebwa ekitiibwa, ettendo n’obulamu obw’emirembe n’emirembe. (aiōnios g166)
to those indeed who with patience of good work are seeking glory and honor and immortality, eternal life: (aiōnios g166)
8 Naye abo abeenoonyeza ebyabwe, abajeemera amazima nga bagondera obutali butuukirivu, kiriba kiruyi na busungu.
but to those who are of self-seeking, and disobedient to the truth, but obedient to unrighteousness, there are indignation and wrath.
9 Walibaawo ennaku n’okubonaabona ku buli mmeeme y’omuntu akola ebibi, okusookera ku Muyudaaya n’oluvannyuma ku Munnaggwanga.
Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that is working out evil, both the Jew first, and the Greek;
10 Naye ekitiibwa n’ettendo n’emirembe biriba ku buli akola ebituufu, okusookera ku Muyudaaya n’oluvannyuma ku Munnaggwanga.
but glory and honor and peace to every one doing good; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
11 Kubanga Katonda tasosola mu bantu.
For there is no respect of persons with God.
12 Abo bonna abaayonoona olw’obutamanya mateeka, balizikirira; era n’abo bonna abaamanya amateeka ne boonoona, bwe batyo bwe balisalirwa omusango, okusinziira mu Mateeka.
For so many as sinned without law will also perish without law; and so many as sinned under the law shall be judged by the law;
13 Kuba abawulira obuwulizi amateeka, si be bejjeerera eri Katonda, wabula abo abakola bye galagira, be baliweebwa obutuukirivu.
for the hearers of the law are not righteous with God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14 Abaamawanga abatalina mateeka bwe bakolera mu buzaaliranwa ebintu eby’Amateeka, ebintu ebyo byennyini bifuuka amateeka gye bali, newaakubadde ng’Amateeka tegaabaweebwa.
For when the Gentiles, not having the law, may by nature do the things of the law, they, not having the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Ekyo kiraga ng’Amateeka gawandiikibbwa mu mitima gyabwe, era kikakasa munda mu birowoozo byabwe, ng’emitima gyabwe giribasaliriza omusango oba okubejjeereza okusinziira ku ekyo kye bamanyi.
who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience witnessing, and their thoughts accusing or indeed excusing with one another,
16 Kino kiribaawo ku lunaku Katonda kw’aliramulira abantu olw’ebyo bye baakisa, ng’enjiri yange bw’eri ku bwa Yesu Kristo.
in the day when God will judge the secrets of men through my gospel according to Jesus Christ.
17 Abamu ku mmwe mweyita Bayudaaya. Mwesiga amateeka ne mwewaana nga bwe mumanyi Katonda.
But if you are denominated a Jew, and rest in the law, and boast in God,
18 Bwe musoma ebyawandiikibwa muyiga engeri Katonda gy’ayagala mweyise ne muzuula ekituufu.
and know his will, and approve the things which are excellent, being taught by the law;
19 Mukakasa nga bwe muli abakulembeze b’abazibe b’amaaso, era ettabaaza eri abo bonna abali mu kizikiza.
and persuade yourself that you are a guide of the blind, a light of those who are in darkness, an instructor of the ignorant,
20 Naye olwokubanga, amateeka ga Katonda gatuwa amagezi n’amazima, mulowooza muyinza okuyigiriza abatali bagezi n’abaana abato.
a teacher of the juveniles, having a form of knowledge and truth in the law;
21 Kale ggwe ayigiriza abalala, lwaki toyinza kweyigiriza wekka? Ategeeza abalala obutabba, tobba?
therefore do not you who teach another teach yourself? do you, who preach not to steal, steal?
22 Ategeeza obutayenda, toyenda? Akyawa ebifaananyi, si ggwe onyaga eby’omu masabo?
do you, who say not to commit adultery, commit adultery? do you, who abominate idolatry, rob temples?
23 Mwenyumiririza mu mateeka, naye ne muswaza Katonda olw’obutagatuukiriza.
do you, who boast in the law, through the transgression of the law dishonor God?
24 Ekyawandiikibwa kigamba nti, “Olw’ebikolwa byammwe ebyo, erinnya lya Katonda kyelivudde livvoolebwa mu mawanga.”
For the name of God is blasphemed by you among the Gentiles, as has been written.
25 Okukomolebwa kugasiza ddala bw’okwata amateeka, naye bw’otagatuukiriza tewaba njawulo wakati wo n’atali mukomole.
For circumcision indeed profits, if you do the law: but if you be a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
26 Kale obanga atali mukomole akwata amateeka, talibalibwa ng’eyakomolebwa?
Then if uncircumcision may keep the righteousness of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
27 Noolwekyo ataakomolebwa mu buzaaliranwa naye ng’akuuma amateeka, alikusaliza omusango gwe alina amateeka amawandiike n’otagatuukiriza ate nga wakomolebwa.
and that which is uncircumcision by nature, perfecting the law, will judge you, who through the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law.
28 Okweyisa ng’Omuyudaaya ate nga wakomolebwa, tekikufuula Muyudaaya yennyini.
For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is circumcision that which is outwardly in the flesh.
29 Okuba Omuyudaaya yennyini oteekwa okugondera amateeka. Okukomolebwa okutuufu kwe kukomolebwa okubaawo mu mutima, so si okw’omubiri. Omuntu ng’oyo atenderezebwa Katonda, so si abantu.
But he is a Jew, who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
