Roomaa 1
1 Phaawulos tajaajilaa Kiristoos Yesuus, kan ergamaa taʼuuf waamamee fi akka wangeela Waaqaa lallabuuf addaan baafame irraa:
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, an Apostle by the selection of God, given authority as a preacher of the good news,
2 Wangeelli kunis kan Waaqni duraan dursee karaa raajota isaatiin Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluu keessatti waadaa galee dha.
Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,
3 Wangeelichis waaʼee ilma isaa kan akka namummaatti sanyii Daawit irraa dhalatee,
About his Son who, in the flesh, came from the family of David,
4 akka Hafuura qulqullummaatti immoo warra duʼan keessaa kaʼuu isaatiin Ilma Waaqaa humna qabeessa taʼuun isaa labsamee dha; innis Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos.
But was marked out as Son of God in power by the Holy Spirit through the coming to life again of the dead; Jesus Christ our Lord,
5 Nus karaa isaatiin, maqaa isaatiif jecha ormoota hunda keessaa akka gara ajajamuu amantii irraa dhufuutti namoota waamnuuf ayyaanaa fi ergamtummaa arganneerra.
Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:
6 Isinis warra akka kan Yesuus Kiristoos taʼaniif waamaman sana keessa jirtu.
Among whom you in the same way have been marked out to be disciples of Jesus Christ:
7 Warra Waaqaan jaallatamtanii qulqulloota taʼuuf waamamtan kanneen Roomaa jirtan hundaaf: Abbaa keenya Waaqaa fi Yesuus Kiristoos Gooftaa irraa ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu.
To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 Sababii amantiin keessan guutummaa addunyaa irratti odeeffamaa jiruuf, ani duraan dursee waaʼee hunda keessaniitiif karaa Yesuus Kiristoosiin Waaqa koo nan galateeffadha.
First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.
9 Akka ani kadhannaa koo keessatti utuu wal irraa hin kutin isin yaadadhu Waaqni ani wangeela Ilma isaa lallabuudhaan hafuura kootiin isa tajaajilu sun dhuga baatuu koo ti;
For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,
10 ani akka ammas dhuma irratti gara keessan dhufuuf fedhii Waaqaatiin karaan naa banamu nan kadhadha.
And that I am ever making prayers that God will give me a good journey to you.
11 Akka isin jabaattaniifis kennaa hafuuraa isinii hiruuf isin arguu baayʼee nan hawwa;
For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;
12 kunis akka isinii fi ani amantii keenyaan wal jajjabeessinuuf.
That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.
13 Yaa obboloota ko, ani akkuma Namoota Ormaa kaan keessatti ija qabaadhe sana isin keessattis akkasuma akkan qabaadhuuf yeroo baayʼee gara keessan dhufuu yaadaa turuu ko, garuu hamma ammaatti dhowwamuu koo akka isin beekuu dhabdan hin barbaadu.
You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.
14 Ani namoota Giriikii fi warra nama Giriik hin taʼiniif, beektotaa fi wallaaltotaaf gatii of irraa nan qaba.
I have a debt to Greeks and to the nations outside; to the wise and to those who have no learning.
15 Sababiin ani isin warra Roomaa jirtanittis wangeela lallabuuf akka malee hawwuuf kanuma.
For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome.
16 Ani wangeelatti hin qaanaʼu; kunis sababii wangeelli humna Waaqaa kan warra amanan hunda fayyisu taʼeef; innis jalqabatti Yihuudootaaf, itti aansee immoo Giriikotaaf.
For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek.
17 Wangeela keessatti qajeelummaan Waaqaa amantii irraa gara amantiitti mulʼateeraatii; kunis akkuma, “Namni qajeelaan amantiidhaan jiraata” jedhamee barreeffamee dha.
For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.
18 Dheekkamsi Waaqaa, Waaqa malee jiraachuu fi hammina namootaa hunda irratti samii irraa ni mulʼata; namoonni kunneen hammina isaaniitiin dhugaa ukkaamsu;
For there is a revelation of the wrath of God from heaven against all the wrongdoing and evil thoughts of men who keep down what is true by wrongdoing;
19 kunis sababii wanni waaʼee Waaqaa beekamuu malu isaaniif ifa taʼeef; Waaqni isaaniif ibseeraatii.
Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them.
20 Amalli Waaqaa kan hin mulʼanne jechuunis humni isaa kan bara baraatii fi waaqummaan isaa uumama addunyaatii jalqabee wantoota uumaman irraa ifaan ifatti mulʼataatii; kanaafuu isaan waan itti qabatan hin qaban. (aïdios g126)
For from the first making of the world, those things of God which the eye is unable to see, that is, his eternal power and existence, are fully made clear, he having given the knowledge of them through the things which he has made, so that men have no reason for wrongdoing: (aïdios g126)
21 Isaan yoo Waaqa beekan illee akka waaqummaa isaatti ulfina hin kennineef; galatas hin galchineef. Garuu yaadni isaanii waan faayidaa hin qabne taʼe; qalbiin isaanii kan hin hubannes ni dukkanaaʼe.
Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark.
22 Isaan yoo ogeeyyii ofiin jedhan iyyuu gowwoota taʼan;
Seeming to be wise, they were in fact foolish,
23 ulfina Waaqa hin duunees nama duʼutti, simbiratti, horii miilla afuriitti akkasumas uumamawwan lafa irra looʼanitti fakkeessuudhaan geeddaran.
And by them the glory of the eternal God was changed and made into the image of man who is not eternal, and of birds and beasts and things which go on the earth.
24 Kanaafuu Waaqni akka isaan dhagna walii isaanii salphisaniif hawwii garaa isaanii hamaadhaan dabarsee xuraaʼummaatti isaan kenne.
For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:
25 Isaanis dhugaa Waaqaa sobatti geeddaran; Uumaa dhiisanii uumama waaqeffatan; ni tajaajilanis. Uumaan bara baraan eebbifamaa dha. Ameen. (aiōn g165)
Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
26 Sababii kanaaf Waaqni dabarsee hawwii jibbisiisaatti isaan kenne. Dubartoonni isaaniis karaa ittiin fedhii fooniitiif dhiira wajjin wal bira gaʼan isa uumamaan kennameef dhiisanii, gara isa uumamaan isaaniif hin kennaminitti geeddaran.
For this reason God gave them up to evil passions, and their women were changing the natural use into one which is unnatural:
27 Warri dhiiraas akkasuma karaa ittiin fedhii fooniitiif dubartoota wajjin wal bira gaʼan isa uumamaan kennameef dhiisanii kajeellaa walii isaaniitiin gubatan. Warri dhiiraa, dhiira biraa wajjin gocha jibbisiisaa raawwatan; dogoggora isaanii kanaafis adaba isaaniif malu ofuma isaaniitiin fudhatan.
And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.
28 Sababii isaan Waaqa beekuu akka waan faayidaa hin qabneetti fudhataniif, Waaqni immoo akka isaan waan hojjetamuu hin malle hojjetaniif qalbii faayidaa hin qabnetti dabarsee isaan kenne.
And because they had not the mind to keep God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;
29 Isaanis hammina gosa hundaatiin, jalʼinaan, sassattummaan, amala baduun, hinaaffaan, nama ajjeesuun, wal loluun, gowwoomsuu fi dabaan guutaman. Isaan hamattoota,
Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;
30 warra maqaa nama balleessan, warra Waaqa jibban, warra nama arrabsan, warra of jajanii fi warra of tuulanii dha; isaan warra karaa ittiin jalʼina hojjetan yaadan, warra abbaa fi haadha isaaniitiif hin ajajamnee dha;
Hated by God, full of pride, without respect, full of loud talk, given to evil inventions, not honouring father or mother,
31 isaan warra hubannaa hin qabne, warra walii galtee diigan, warra jaalala hin qabnee fi warra namaaf garaa hin laafnee dha.
Without knowledge, not true to their undertakings, unkind, having no mercy:
32 Isaan seera Waaqaa kan, “Warra waan akkanaa hojjetan duʼuutu isaaniif mala” jedhu sana yoo beekan iyyuu ofii isaaniitiif waan akkanaa hojjechuu qofa utuu hin taʼin warra waan kana hojjetan iyyuu ni jajjabeessu.
Who, though they have knowledge of the law of God, that the fate of those who do these things is death, not only go on doing these things themselves, but give approval to those who do them.
