Roomaa 10
1 Yaa obboloota, hawwiin garaa kootii fi wanni ani Israaʼelootaaf Waaqa kadhadhu akka isaan fayyaniif.
Brethren, the will of my heart, indeed, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.
2 Ani akka isaan Waaqaaf hinaaffaa qaban dhugaa nan baʼa; hinaaffaan isaanii garuu kan beekumsa irratti hundeeffame miti.
For I bear them witness, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 Isaan waan qajeelummaa Waaqa biraa dhufu hin beekinii fi waan qajeelummaa ofii isaanii uumachuu barbaadaniif qajeelummaa Waaqaatiif hin bulle.
For they, not knowing the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own, have not submitted themselves to the justice of God.
4 Akka namni amanu hundinuu qajeelummaa argatuuf Kiristoos raawwii seeraatii.
For the end of the law is Christ, unto justice to every one that believeth.
5 Museen waaʼee qajeelummaa seeraan argamuu, “Namni waan seerri ajaju godhu ittiin jiraata” jedhee waan kana barreesseeraatii.
For Moses wrote, that the justice which is of the law, the man that shall do it, shall live by it.
6 Qajeelummaan amantiidhaan argamu garuu akkana jedha; “Ati garaa kee keessatti, ‘Eenyutu gara samiitti ol baʼa?’ hin jedhin;” Kun Kiristoosin gad buusuuf;
But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;
7 “Yookaan, ‘Eenyutu qileetti gad buʼa?’ hin jedhin;” kun Kiristoosin warra duʼan keessaa ol baasuuf. (Abyssos g12)
Or who shall descend into the deep? that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead. (Abyssos g12)
8 Inni garuu maal jedha? “Dubbichi si bira jira; afaan keetii fi garaa kee keessa jira;” innis dubbii amantii isa nu lallabnuu dha;
But what saith the scripture? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart. This is the word of faith, which we preach.
9 kunis yoo ati, “Yesuus Gooftaa dha” jettee afaan keetiin dhugaa baatee akka Waaqni warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase garaa keetti amante, ati ni fayyita.
For if thou confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thy heart that God hath raised him up from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 Namni garaa isaatiin amanee qajeelaa taasifamaatii; afaan isaatiinis dhugaa baʼee fayya.
For, with the heart, we believe unto justice; but, with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
11 Katabbiin Qulqulluun, “Namni isatti amanu kam iyyuu gonkumaa hin qaanaʼu” jedhaatii.
For the scripture saith: Whosoever believeth in him, shall not be confounded.
12 Yihuudii fi Giriikii gidduu garaa garummaan hin jiruutii; Gooftuma tokkicha sanatu Gooftaa hundaa ti; innis warra isa waammatan hunda eebba isaatiin badhaasa.
For there is no distinction of the Jew and the Greek: for the same is Lord over all, rich unto all that call upon him.
13 “Namni maqaa Gooftaa waammatu hundinuu ni fayyaatii.”
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved.
14 Yoos isaan akkamitti isa itti hin amanin waammachuu dandaʼu ree? Isa waaʼee isaa hin dhagaʼinittis akkamitti amanuu dandaʼu ree? Utuu namni isaanitti hin lallabinis akkamitti dhagaʼuu dandaʼu ree?
How then shall they call on him, in whom they have not believed? Or how shall they believe him, of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear, without a preacher?
15 Isaanis utuu hin ergamin akkamitti lallabuu dandaʼu? Kunis isa, “Miilli warra wangeela fidanii akkam miidhagaa dha!” jedhamee barreeffamee dha.
And how shall they preach unless they be sent, as it is written: How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, of them that bring glad tidings of good things!
16 Oduu gaarii sanas kan fudhate Israaʼeloota hunda miti. Isaayyaas, “Yaa Gooftaa, ergaa keenya eenyutu amane?” jedhaatii.
But all do not obey the gospel. For Isaias saith: Lord, who hath believed our report?
17 Egaa amantiin ergaa dhagaʼuudhaan dhufa; ergaan kunis karaa dubbii waaʼee Kiristoosiin dhagaʼama.
Faith then cometh by hearing; and hearing by the word of Christ.
18 Ani garuu: Isaan hin dhageenye moo? jedhee nan gaafadha; dhugumaanuu isaan dhagaʼaniiru: “Sagaleen isaanii lafa hunda, dubbiin isaaniis handaara addunyaa gaʼe.”
But I say: Have they not heard? Yes, verily, their sound hath gone forth into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the whole world.
19 Ammas ani: Israaʼel hin hubanne moo? jedheen gaafadha. Museen duraan dursee, “Ani warra saba hin taʼiniin akka isin hinaaftan nan godha; saba hubannaa hin qabneenis isin nan aarsaa” jedha.
But I say: Hath not Israel known? First, Moses saith: I will provoke you to jealousy by that which is not a nation; by a foolish nation I will anger you.
20 Isaayyaasis ija jabinaan, “Warri na hin barbaadin na argatan; warra na hin iyyaafatinittis nan mulʼadhe” jedha.
But Isaias is bold, and saith: I was found by them that did not seek me: I appeared openly to them that asked not after me.
21 Waaʼee Israaʼel garuu, “Ani guyyaa guutuu gara uummata hin ajajamnee fi didaa taʼeetti harka koo nan diriirfadhe” jedha.
But to Israel he saith: All the day long have I spread my hands to a people that believeth not, and contradicteth me.
