1 बंधूंनो, त्यांचे तारण व्हावे, ही माझ्या मनाची कळकळीची इच्छा व माझी त्यांच्याकरिता देवाजवळ विनंती आहे.
My fellow believers, what I deeply desire and what I pray to God earnestly for is that he will save [my own people], [the Jews].
2 कारण त्यांच्याविषयी मी साक्ष देतो की, त्यांना देवाविषयी ईर्ष्या आहे, पण ती ज्ञानामुळे नाही.
I declare truthfully about them that although they (zealously seek/very much want to know) God, they do not understand [how to seek/know him correctly].
3 कारण ते देवाच्या नीतिमत्त्वाविषयी अज्ञानी असता आणि स्वतःचे नीतिमत्त्व प्रस्थापित करू पाहत असता ते देवाच्या नीतिमत्त्वाला वश झाले नाहीत.
They did not (submit themselves to/accept) the way that God erases the record of people’s sins. They did not [want to] recognize [that way] because they wanted him to do it their own way.
4 कारण ख्रिस्त हा विश्वास ठेवणार्‍या प्रत्येकाला नीतिमत्त्वासाठी नियमशास्त्राचा शेवट आहे.
They wanted God to erase the record of their sins [as a result of their obeying his laws. But] because of what Christ has done, it is no longer necessary for [people to obey] the laws [God gave Moses in order for the record of their sins to be erased]. Now God will erase the record of sins of everyone who trusts [in what Christ has done].
5 कारण नियमशास्त्राने प्राप्त होणार्‍या नीतिमत्त्वाविषयी मोशे लिहितो की, ‘जो मनुष्य ते आचरतो तो त्याद्वारे जगेल.’
In regard to [the old] way, Moses wrote [concerning people who obey God’s] laws, “It is the people who have done [perfectly] the things [that the laws require] who will gain [eternal] life by [doing] them.”
6 पण विश्वासाने प्राप्त होणारे नीतिमत्त्व असे म्हणते की, तू आपल्या मनात म्हणू नकोस की, स्वर्गात कोण चढेल? (म्हणजे ख्रिस्ताला खाली आणण्यास)
But those whose record of sins God has erased as a result of their believing [in Christ] can say [to anyone] [PRS] [as Moses said], “You should not [critically] think inwardly, ‘(Someone will have to go up and enter heaven!/Who will go up and enter heaven?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go up and] bring Christ down [to bring the message of salvation to us]!
7 किंवा मृतलोकात कोण उतरेल? (म्हणजे ख्रिस्ताला मरण पावलेल्यांमधून वर आणण्यास) (Abyssos g12)
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos g12)
8 पण ते काय म्हणते? ते वचन तुझ्याजवळ, ते तुझ्या मुखात व तुझ्या अंतःकरणात आहे. म्हणजे आम्ही ज्याची घोषणा करतो ते विश्वासाचे वचन हे आहे.
But instead, [those who believe in Christ] [PRS] can say what [RHQ] [Moses also said], “You [(sg)] can find out about [God’s] message very easily. You can speak [MTY] about it; you can think [MTY] about it.” This is the message that we proclaim, that people must believe [in Christ].
9 कारण येशू प्रभू आहे असे जर तू आपल्या मुखाने कबूल करशील आणि देवाने त्यास मरण पावलेल्यांमधून उठवले असा आपल्या अंतःकरणात विश्वास ठेवशील तर तुझे तारण होईल.
[This message is that] if anyone of you confesses/says publicly that Jesus is Lord, and if you [(sg)] believe that God (caused him to become alive again after he died/raised him from the dead), you will be saved {[God] will save you}.
10 १० कारण जो अंतःकरणाने विश्वास ठेवतो तो नीतिमान ठरतो व जो मुखाने कबूल करतो त्याचे तारण होते.
If people believe [that Christ died and that God caused him to become alive again] [CHI], the result is that [God will erase the record of their sins]. And [for] those who state/declare publicly [that Jesus is their Lord], the result is that [God] will save them.
11 ११ म्हणून शास्त्रलेख म्हणतो की, ‘जो कोणी त्याच्यावर विश्वास ठेवतो तो लज्जित होणार नाही.’
[It is written] {[Isaiah wrote]} in the Scriptures [PRS] [about the Messiah], “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”
12 १२ यहूदी व हेल्लेणी ह्यांच्यात फरक नाही, कारण तोच प्रभू सर्वांवर असून जे त्याचा धावा करतात त्या सर्वांसाठी तो संपन्न आहे,
[God] treats Jews and non-Jews similarly. Because he is the same Lord for all people [who believe in him], he abundantly [blesses] all who ask him [to save them].
13 १३ ‘कारण जो कोणी प्रभूच्या नावाचा धावा करील त्याचे तारण होईल.’
This is [just like what the prophet Joel wrote]: “All those who ask the Lord [God] to save them will be saved {The Lord [God] will save all those who ask him to save them}.”
14 १४ मग ज्याच्यावर त्यांनी विश्वास ठेवला नाही त्याचा ते कसा धावा करतील? आणि ज्याच्याविषयी त्यांनी ऐकले नाही त्याच्यावर ते कसा विश्वास ठेवतील? आणि घोषणा करणार्‍याशिवाय ते कसे ऐकतील?
[In regard to the people of Israel rejecting the gospel, some people might object by saying], (OR, [This raises another problem about the Jews]: ) “(They certainly cannot ask [Christ to save them] if they have not [first] believed [in him]!/How can they ask [Christ to help/save them] if they have not [first] believed [in him]?) [RHQ] And (they certainly cannot believe [in him] if they have not heard about him!/how can they believe [in him] if they have not heard about him?) [RHQ] And (they certainly cannot hear [about him] if someone does not preach to them [about him]!/how can they hear [about him] if someone does not preach to them [about him]?) [RHQ]
15 १५ आणि त्यांना पाठविल्याशिवाय ते कशी घोषणा करतील? कारण पवित्र शास्त्रात असे लिहिले आहे की, ‘जे चांगल्या गोष्टींची सुवार्ता सांगतात त्यांचे पाय किती सुंदर आहेत!’
And those who preach to them [about Christ], (certainly cannot preach if they are not sent [by God] {if [God] does not send them} [to preach!]/how can they preach if they are not sent [by God] {if [God] does not send them} [to preach]?) [RHQ] [His sending messengers to them would be] just like it is written {like someone wrote} [in the Scriptures], ‘The arrival [MTY] of those who preach the good message is wonderful!’”
16 १६ पण सर्वांनीच सुवार्तेचे आज्ञापालन केले नाही, कारण यशया म्हणतो की, ‘प्रभू, आमच्याकडून ऐकले त्यावर कोणी विश्वास ठेवला आहे?’
[I would reply in this way to people who say such things: God has indeed sent people to preach the message about Christ]. But not all [the people of Israel] have paid attention to the good message! [It is like what] Isaiah said [when he felt very discouraged], “Lord, it seems as if hardly anyone believed what they heard us [(exc)] preach! [RHQ]”
17 १७ तर मग ऐकण्यामुळे विश्वास होतो आणि ख्रिस्ताच्या वचनामुळे ऐकणे होते.
So then, [I tell you that people] are believing [in Christ] as a result of hearing [the message about him], and people are hearing [the message] as a result of [people] preaching [about] Christ!
18 १८ पण मी म्हणतो की त्यांनी ऐकले नव्हते काय? हो, खचित ऐकले; ‘सर्व पृथ्वीवर त्यांचा आवाज आणि जगाच्या टोकापर्यंत त्यांचे शब्द पोहोचले आहेत.’
But [if someone were to] ask, “Have not [the people of Israel] heard [the message about God?]” [I would reply that they] certainly [have heard it]! It is like [what is written in the Psalms], [People living] all over the world [PRS, MTY] [have seen the stars], and what they indicate [about God’s character has reached people living in] the most remote places in the world [DOU]!
19 १९ पण मी म्हणतो की, इस्राएलाला कळले नव्हते काय? प्रथम मोशे म्हणतो, ‘जे राष्ट्र नाहीत त्यांच्याकडून. मी तुम्हास ईर्ष्येस चढवीन, एका निर्बुद्ध राष्ट्राकडून मी तुम्हास चेतवीन.’
But [someone might ask], “[Is it true that the people of] [MTY] Israel understood [the message about Christ]?” [I would reply that certainly they understood it, but they rejected it! Remember that] Moses was the first [one who warned the people of Israel about disobeying God. He told them that God said], [You consider that] non-Jewish groups are not nations at all [CHI]. But some of them [will believe in me, and I will bless them]. Then you will envy them. I will cause you to be angry with those people whom [you Jews think] do not understand [my ways] [IRO].
20 २० पण यशया फार धीट होऊन म्हणतो की, ‘ज्यांनी माझा शोध केला नाही त्यांना मी सापडलो आहे, ज्यांनी माझ्याविषयी विचारले नाही त्यांना प्राप्त झालो आहे.’
Remember also [what God] said [very] boldly to Isaiah: Non-Jews who did not (try to know/seek) me will surely find me [DOU]! I will surely reveal what I am like to those who did not ask for me!
21 २१ पण इस्राएलाविषयी तो म्हणतो, ‘मी एका, अवमान करणार्‍या आणि उलटून बोलणार्‍या प्रजेपुढे दिवसभर माझे हात पसरले.’
But concerning [the people of] Israel, [Isaiah] tells [us that God said]: For a long time I have held out my arms to people who disobeyed and rebelled against me, [in order] to invite them to return to me.
