رومِنَح 4

1 اَسْماکَں پُورْوَّپُرُشَ اِبْراہِیمْ کایِکَکْرِیَیا کِں لَبْدھَوانْ ایتَدَدھِ کِں وَدِشْیامَح؟

What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh?

2 سَ یَدِ نِجَکْرِیابھْیَح سَپُنْیو بھَویتْ تَرْہِ تَسْیاتْمَشْلاگھاں کَرْتُّں پَنْتھا بھَویدِتِ سَتْیَں، کِنْتْوِیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِیپے نَہِ۔

For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God.

3 شاسْتْرے کِں لِکھَتِ؟ اِبْراہِیمْ اِیشْوَرے وِشْوَسَناتْ سَ وِشْواسَسْتَسْمَے پُنْیارْتھَں گَنِتو بَبھُووَ۔

For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”

4 کَرْمَّکارِنو یَدْ ویتَنَں تَدْ اَنُگْرَہَسْیَ پھَلَں نَہِ کِنْتُ تینوپارْجِتَں مَنْتَوْیَمْ۔

Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as something owed.

5 کِنْتُ یَح پاپِنَں سَپُنْیِیکَروتِ تَسْمِنْ وِشْواسِنَح کَرْمَّہِینَسْیَ جَنَسْیَ یو وِشْواسَح سَ پُنْیارْتھَں گَنْیو بھَوَتِ۔

But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.

6 اَپَرَں یَں کْرِیاہِینَمْ اِیشْوَرَح سَپُنْیِیکَروتِ تَسْیَ دھَنْیَوادَں دایُودْ وَرْنَیاماسَ، یَتھا،

Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:

7 سَ دھَنْیوگھانِ مرِشْٹانِ یَسْیاگاںسْیاورِتانِ چَ۔

“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

8 سَ چَ دھَنْیَح پَریشینَ پاپَں یَسْیَ نَ گَنْیَتے۔

Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin.”

9 ایشَ دھَنْیَوادَسْتْوَکْچھیدِنَمْ اَتْوَکْچھیدِنَں وا کَں پْرَتِ بھَوَتِ؟ اِبْراہِیمو وِشْواسَح پُنْیارْتھَں گَنِتَ اِتِ وَیَں وَدامَح۔

Is this blessing then pronounced only on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.

10 سَ وِشْواسَسْتَسْیَ تْوَکْچھیدِتْواوَسْتھایاں کِمْ اَتْوَکْچھیدِتْواوَسْتھایاں کَسْمِنْ سَمَیے پُنْیَمِوَ گَنِتَح؟ تْوَکْچھیدِتْواوَسْتھایاں نَہِ کِنْتْوَتْوَکْچھیدِتْواوَسْتھایاں۔

How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

11 اَپَرَنْچَ سَ یَتْ سَرْوّیشامْ اَتْوَکْچھیدِناں وِشْواسِنامْ آدِپُرُشو بھَویتْ، تے چَ پُنْیَوَتّوینَ گَنْییرَنْ؛

He received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they might be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be accounted to them.

12 یے چَ لوکاح کیوَلَں چھِنَّتْوَچو نَ سَنْتو سْمَتْپُورْوَّپُرُشَ اِبْراہِیمْ اَچھِنَّتْوَکْ سَنْ یینَ وِشْواسَمارْگینَ گَتَوانْ تینَیوَ تَسْیَ پادَچِہْنینَ گَچّھَنْتِ تیشاں تْوَکْچھیدِنامَپْیادِپُرُشو بھَویتْ تَدَرْتھَمْ اَتْوَکْچھیدِنو مانَوَسْیَ وِشْواساتْ پُنْیَمْ اُتْپَدْیَتَ اِتِ پْرَمانَسْوَرُوپَں تْوَکْچھیدَچِہْنَں سَ پْراپْنوتْ۔

He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.

13 اِبْراہِیمْ جَگَتودھِکارِی بھَوِشْیَتِ یَیشا پْرَتِجْنا تَں تَسْیَ وَںشَنْچَ پْرَتِ پُورْوَّمْ اَکْرِیَتَ سا وْیَوَسْتھامُولِکا نَہِ کِنْتُ وِشْواسَجَنْیَپُنْیَمُولِکا۔

For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he would be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

14 یَتو وْیَوَسْتھاوَلَمْبِنو یَدْیَدھِکارِنو بھَوَنْتِ تَرْہِ وِشْواسو وِپھَلو جایَتے سا پْرَتِجْناپِ لُپْتَیوَ۔

For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.

15 اَدھِکَنْتُ وْیَوَسْتھا کوپَں جَنَیَتِ یَتو وِدْیَمانایاں وْیَوَسْتھایامْ آجْنالَنْگھَنَں نَ سَمْبھَوَتِ۔

For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.

16 اَتَایوَ سا پْرَتِجْنا یَدْ اَنُگْرَہَسْیَ پھَلَں بھَویتْ تَدَرْتھَں وِشْواسَمُولِکا یَتَسْتَتھاتْوے تَدْوَںشَسَمُدایَں پْرَتِ اَرْتھَتو یے وْیَوَسْتھَیا تَدْوَںشَسَمْبھَواح کیوَلَں تانْ پْرَتِ نَہِ کِنْتُ یَ اِبْراہِیمِییَوِشْواسینَ تَتْسَمْبھَواسْتانَپِ پْرَتِ سا پْرَتِجْنا سْتھاسْنُرْبھَوَتِ۔

For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.

17 یو نِرْجِیوانْ سَجِیوانْ اَوِدْیَمانانِ وَسْتُونِ چَ وِدْیَمانانِ کَروتِ اِبْراہِیمو وِشْواسَبھُومیسْتَسْییشْوَرَسْیَ ساکْشاتْ سوسْماکَں سَرْوّیشامْ آدِپُرُشَ آسْتے، یَتھا لِکھِتَں وِدْیَتے، اَہَں تْواں بَہُجاتِینامْ آدِپُرُشَں کرِتْوا نِیُکْتَوانْ۔

As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.” This is in the presence of him whom he believed: God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were.

18 تْوَدِییَسْتادرِشو وَںشو جَنِشْیَتے یَدِدَں واکْیَں پْرَتِشْرُتَں تَدَنُسارادْ اِبْراہِیمْ بَہُدیشِییَلوکانامْ آدِپُرُشو یَدْ بھَوَتِ تَدَرْتھَں سونَپیکْشِتَوْیَمَپْیَپیکْشَمانو وِشْواسَں کرِتَوانْ۔

Against hope, Abraham in hope believed, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So will your offspring be.”

19 اَپَرَنْچَ کْشِینَوِشْواسو نَ بھُوتْوا شَتَوَتْسَرَوَیَسْکَتْواتْ سْوَشَرِیرَسْیَ جَراں سارانامْنَح سْوَبھارْیّایا رَجونِورِتِّنْچَ ترِنایَ نَ مینے۔

Without being weakened in faith, he didn’t consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb.

20 اَپَرَمْ اَوِشْواسادْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پْرَتِجْناوَچَنے کَمَپِ سَںشَیَں نَ چَکارَ؛

Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God,

21 کِنْتْوِیشْوَرینَ یَتْ پْرَتِشْرُتَں تَتْ سادھَیِتُں شَکْیَتَ اِتِ نِشْچِتَں وِجْنایَ درِڈھَوِشْواسَح سَنْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ مَہِمانَں پْرَکاشَیانْچَکارَ۔

and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was also able to perform.

22 اِتِ ہیتوسْتَسْیَ سَ وِشْواسَسْتَدِییَپُنْیَمِوَ گَنَیانْچَکْرے۔

Therefore it also was “credited to him for righteousness.”

23 پُنْیَمِواگَنْیَتَ تَتْ کیوَلَسْیَ تَسْیَ نِمِتَّں لِکھِتَں نَہِ، اَسْماکَں نِمِتَّمَپِ،

Now it was not written that it was accounted to him for his sake alone,

24 یَتوسْماکَں پاپَناشارْتھَں سَمَرْپِتوسْماکَں پُنْیَپْراپْتْیَرْتھَنْچوتّھاپِتوبھَوَتْ یوسْماکَں پْرَبھُ رْیِیشُسْتَسْیوتّھاپَیِتَرِیشْوَری

but for our sake also, to whom it will be accounted, who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,

25 یَدِ وَیَں وِشْوَسامَسْتَرْہْیَسْماکَمَپِ سَایوَ وِشْواسَح پُنْیَمِوَ گَنَیِشْیَتے۔

who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
