Roomaa 12
1 Kanaafuu yaa obboloota, akka isin dhagna keessan aarsaa jiraataa, qulqullaaʼaa fi kan Waaqa gammachiisu gootanii dhiʼeessitaniif ani gara laafina Waaqaatiin isin kadhadha; kunis waaqeffannaa keessan kan hafuuraa ti.
Wherefore, brethren, I beseech you, by the tender mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
2 Fedhiin Waaqaa gaariin, gammachiisaanii fi kan mudaa hin qabne maal akka taʼe qorattanii akka mirkaneessuu dandeessaniif haaromfamuu qalbii keessaniitiin geeddaramaa malee addunyaa kana hin fakkaatinaa. (aiōn g165)
And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind; that you may approve the will of God, which is good, and acceptable, and perfect. (aiōn g165)
3 Ani ayyaana naa kennameen tokkoo tokkoo keessan nan gorsaatii: Akka madaalii amantii kan Waaqni isinii kenne sanaatti qalbeeffannaadhaan waaʼee ofii keessanii yaadaa malee hamma yaaduu qabdanii olitti hin yaadinaa.
Also, by the favor which is given to me, I charge every one of you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think modestly, as God has distributed to every one a portion of his faith.
4 Akkuma dhagni keenya kutaa baayʼee qabu, akkuma kutaawwan kunneenis hojii wal fakkaatu hin qabaatin sana
For, as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office;
5 akkasuma immoo nu warri baayʼee taane Kiristoosiin dhagna tokkoo dha; tokkoon tokkoon kutaa dhagnaa kan walii isaanii ti.
so we, the many, are one body under Christ, and individually members of one another.
6 Nu akkuma ayyaana nuu kennameetti kennaa garaa garaa qabna. Yoo kennaan nama tokkoo raajii dubbachuu taʼe, inni akkuma amantii isaatitti haa dubbatu.
Having, then, gifts, differing according to the favor which is given to us--if prophecy act according to the measure of faith--
7 Yoo tajaajiluu taʼe, haa tajaajilu; yoo barsiisuu taʼe, haa barsiisu;
if a ministerial office, in that office--if one is a teacher, in teaching--
8 yoo jajjabeessuu taʼe, haa jajjabeessu; yoo warra rakkataniif kennuu taʼe, arjummaadhaan haa kennu; yoo bulchuu taʼe, jabaatee haa bulchu; yoo maaruu taʼe, gammachuun haa maaru.
and the exhorter, in exhortation. Let him who distributes act with disinterestedness--him that presides, with assiduity--him that shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Jaalalli keessan itti fakkeessuudhaan hin taʼin. Waan hamaa jibbaa; waan gaariitti maxxanaa.
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor the evil--adhere closely to the good.
10 Jaalala obbolummaatiin jabeessaa wal jaalladhaa. Ulfina walii kennuutti wal dorgomaa.
In brotherly love, be tenderly affectionate to one another--in honor, prefer one another.
11 Gooftaa tajaajiluu keessatti hafuura gubaa qabaadhaa malee hinaaffaa hin dhabinaa.
In business, be not slothful. Be fervent in spirit-- constant in serving the Lord.
12 Abdiidhaan gammadaa; dhiphina obsaa; kadhannaatti cimaa.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, steadfastly persevering in prayer.
13 Qulqulloota rakkataniif waa gumaachaa. Keessummoota simadhaa.
Communicate to the necessities of the saints. Follow hospitality to strangers.
14 Warra isin ariʼatan eebbisaa; eebbisaa malee hin abaarinaa.
Bless them who persecute you--bless, and curse not.
15 Warra gammadan wajjin gammadaa; warra booʼan wajjin booʼaa.
Rejoice with them who rejoice, and weep with them who weep.
16 Walii galteedhaan wajjin jiraadhaa. Warra jireenya gad aanaa jiraatan wajjin jiraadhaa malee hin koorinaa. Of hin tuulinaa.
Be of the same disposition toward one another. Do not care for high things; but accommodate yourselves to those which are humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17 Nama kamiif iyyuu hammina hamminaan hin deebisinaa. Nama hunda duratti waan gaarii hojjedhaa.
To no one return evil for evil. Seek after things honorable in the sight of all men.
18 Yoo dandaʼame, gama keessaniin nama hunda wajjin nagaan jiraadhaa.
What relates to you is, live in peace with all men, if possible.
19 Yaa jaallatamtoota, dheekkamsa Waaqaatiif iddoo kennaa malee haaloo hin baʼinaa; Gooftaan, “Haaloo baasuun kan koo ti; ani gatii nan deebisa” jedha, jedhamee barreeffameeraatii.
Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but give place to the wrath of God; for it is written, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord."
20 Garuu, “Yoo diinni kee beelaʼe, beela baasi; yoo inni dheebotes, waan inni dhugu kenniif. Kana gochuu keetiin barbadaa ibiddaa mataa isaa irra tuulta.”
Therefore, if your enemy hunger, give him food: if he thirst, give him drink: for by doing this, you will heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Gaarummaan hammina moʼi malee hamminaan hin moʼamin.
Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
