Roomte 3
1 Erah ang abah, Jehudi loong ah Ranglajatte tokkhodi tumjih dak seela? Adoleh khoopkhan banlam hoon thaang ah tumjih dak jeela?
Then what more belongs to the Jew, or what is the profit of circumcision?
2 Om, jaatrep ni dak jeela! Jaakhothoon ah Rangte ih Jehudi loong suh heh jengkhaap ah kap thukta.
Much every way. For indeed, in the first place, the oracles of God were committed unto them.
3 Enoothong mararah ih lamok tuungmaang rumka bah mamah ang ah? Erah loong asuh Rangte ah tatam tuungmaang rumka?
For what if some did not believe? whether will their unbelief destroy the faith of God?
4 Emah tah angka! Mina loongtang khoonglap ang abah uh, Rangte abah amiisak jaatjaat, Rangteele ni amah liiha, “Sen jeng an doh epunjih ah jaatjaat dongjeng etheng; sen mat ih johan doh sen ih ejen jaatjaat etheng.”
it could not be so: but let God be true, and every man a liar; as indeed it has been written, In order that you may be justified in your words, and shall prevail, in your judgment.
5 Enoothong seng ethih re ih di uh Rangte ah epun jaatjaat ih boot jatthuk hali bah, seng ih mamet li ih? Heh ih chamnaang nyia tenkhat kohe doh Rangte ah emoong re ela ih emi li nih et ih? (Erah ah jojang ih cheng etjih tiit.)
But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust administering wrath? I speak according to a man.
6 Emah babah uh tah angka! Rangte ih epun lamdoh lamok dande ri bah, mongrep ah tang heh ih mamet jen dande ah?
It could not be so: then how will God judge the world?
7 Enoothong lapunkang bah uh Rangte mootkaat ah moh angno heh amiisak tiit ah ehan ih boot jatthuk ang bah, rangdah mina likhiik ngah ah mamah ma ih dut haat hang?
And if the truth of God through my falsehood abounded unto His glory, why am I still judged as a sinner?
8 Emah ang abah amah tatam maaliike, “Raahan ethi ah re ih, ese ah toom thok ha suh ah?” Amiimi di mararah mina ih nga ah kaanju hangno emamah mat ih jootcho! Erah loong ah dut haat et ah, tumeah neng ah edut haatjih jaatjaat.
are we not indeed thus traduced, and as some say we speak, that, Let us do evil in order that good may come? whose condemnation is just.
9 Ese, erah ang abah, Jehudi seng loong ah Ranglajatte nang ih tumjaat di dak se li? Tumjih di uh tadak seeke! Ngah ih ejen noisok ettang, Jehudi nyia Ranglajatte loongtang mina eliili rangdah ih panha,
Then what? are we the better? By no means: for we have proven already that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin;
10 Rangteele ni liiha: “Wasiit taan o uh kateng tajeeka,
as has been written, There is no one good, not one:
11 wasiit taan uh thungsek amuk adoleh Rangte rangsoomte amuk.
there is no one who understands, there is no one who seeks out God;
12 Thoontang Rangte jiin nawa doksoon eta; neng thoontang ethih lam ni kala; o uh tapun reeka, wasiit taan uh tapun reeka.
all have gone away, they have all together become unprofitable; there is no one who is doing good, there is not one.
13 Neng jengkhaap ah mangbeng luung likhiik; neng tuuhih ah eleek tiit baat theng, neng tuikhoop nawa jengkhaap loong ah echo ejih pu jik likhiik;
Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips.
14 neng tiitwaan adi khadikdik etamjam jengkhaap ih meela.
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.
15 Neng loong ah ethet haat nyia etek haat suh sukramram;
Whose feet are swift to shed blood:
16 neng maanah khoom ah neng pho adi ethih totoh.
destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 Neng ih semroongroong lampo ah tajatka,
and they have not known the way of peace.
18 adoleh Rangte raacho ah neng ih tajatka.”
The fear of God is not before their eyes.
19 Amadi seng ih jat ih di Hootthe dowa jaatrep ah, o mina erah Hootthe khu adi songtongte loong asuh ba baat ha, eno mina loong ah takah jeng thukka ang ah, nyia mongrep ah Rangte suh dande thuk ah.
But we know that so many things as the law speaks, it says to those under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may become guilty before God.
20 Erah thoih o Hootthe jun ih mola loong abah Rangte damdoh tapunka ang ah; Hootthe ih bah seng ah rangdah mina ih dongjat thuk suh ba liiha.
Therefore no flesh shall be justified by works of law: for through law there is a perfect knowledge of sin.
21 Enoothong amadi Rangte ih mina heh damdoh mame pun songtongjih rah dongjat etthuk hali. Erah raangtaan ih Moses Hootthe nyia Khowah loong ih haaki taat korum abah uh, Hootthe ah tumjih takah etke.
And now the righteousness of God without law has been made manifest, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Mina loong ah Jisu Kristo suh laalom rumla jun ih Rangte ih kateng ang thuk rumla. Rangte ih erah Jisu Kristo suh laalomte loong raangtaan ih reeta, tumeah erah di edandeejih jihoh tumjih takah jeeka:
but the righteousness of God through faith of Jesus Christ is unto all who believe: for there is no difference,
23 mirep ah rangdah ni ang thoidi Rangte ih puipang thengta dowa haloh ih hoon rumla.
for all sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Enoothong marah mina suh thaangmuh lakkot minchan korumha loong ah heh damdi neng pongwan angthukte Jisu Kristo jun ih kateng ang thuk rumla.
being freely justified by his grace, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:
25 Rangte ih Jisu Kristo ah loongtang khosa ih kokaat taha, heh sih janhaatta asuh laalom rum ano mina rangdah biin anaan raangtaan ih lampo ih hoon ah. Rangte ih Heh ah kateng ih noisok suh reeta. Teewadi bah mina rangdah ah hiiksok nyi enaan kah etta, amadoh bah ethih ese ah dande et ah, tumeah heh kateng ah noisok ah. Emamah ih Rangte ih heh ah kateng ih jatthuk hali erah raang ih o mina Jisu Kristo suh hanpiite loong ah uh kateng et hoon thukla.
whom God sent forth an expiation through faith in his blood, unto the manifestation of His righteousness through the remission of the sins which are passed,
in the forbearance of God; unto the manifestation of his righteousness at the present time, so that he is just, and justifying him who is of the faith of Jesus.
27 Erah ang abah, seng ngaampojih tumjih jeela? Tumjih uh tajeeka! Erah tumjih thoilam di hoonla? Hootthe lamphan kino tam angla? Tah angka! Seng hanpi jun ih angla.
Then where is boasting? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No; but by the law of faith.
28 Hethoondi seng ih jat idi, mina ih hanpi ehi jun ih ba Rangte ih kateng ih hoon thuk hali, Hootthe ih baat hali raangtaan ih tah angka.
For we conclude that a man is justified by faith without works of law.
29 Adoleh Rangte ah Jehudi loong Rangte laklak tam ang koka? Heh ah Ranglajatte Rangte tatam ang koka? Neng Rangte elang ju eah.
Whether is he the God of the Jews only? is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yea, also of the Gentiles:
30 Rangte ah esiit, heh ih Jehudi nyi Ranglajatte loongtang neng laalom jun ih ba Rangte ngathong nah kateng ih hoon rum ah.
truly there is one God, who will justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith.
31 Emah ang abah laalom thoidoh Hootthe ah chiik haat tam et ih? Emah babah uh tah angka; erah nang ih bah Hootthe ah emaak etheng.
Then do we make void the law through faith? It could not be so: but we establish the law.
