Baroma 10
1 Bagaetsho ba ba rategang, keletso ya pelo ya me le thapelo ya me ke gore Bajuta ba bolokwe.
Brothers, certainly the will of my heart, and my prayer to God, is for them unto salvation.
2 Ke itse ka fa ba tlhwaafaletseng go tlotla Modimo ka teng, mme le fa go ntse jalo ke tlhwaafalo e e seng ka fa mokgweng.
For I offer testimony to them, that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
3 Gonne ga ba tlhaloganye gore Keresete o swetse go ba siamisa mo Modimong. Mo boemong jwa go tlhaloganya ba leka go itira tshiamo go gapa maikutlo a Modimo ka go tshegetsa melao ya Sejuta le ngwao, mme moo ga se tsela ya Modimo ya poloko.
For, being ignorant of the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own justice, they have not subjected themselves to the justice of God.
4 Ga ba tlhaloganye gore Keresete o neela ba ba mo ikanyang sengwe le sengwe se ba lekang go nna naso ka go tshegetsa melao ya gagwe. O khutlisa gotlhe moo.
For the end of the law, Christ, is unto justice for all who believe.
5 Gonne Moshe o kwadile gore fa motho a ne a ka nna molemo mo go senang le fa e le selabe, a ba a itisa mo thaelong yotlhe a sa ntse a tshela, a ba a sa leofe le fa e le gangwe, ke gone fela ka fa a ka itshwarelwang a bo a bolokwa.
And Moses wrote, about the justice that is of the law, that the man who will have done justice shall live by justice.
6 Mme poloko e e tlang ka tumelo ya re, “Ga go tlhokege go puruputsha magodimo o batla Jesu Keresete o bo o mo folosa go tla go go thusa,” ebile,
But the justice that is of faith speaks in this way: Do not say in your heart: “Who shall ascend into heaven?” (that is, to bring Christ down);
“Or who shall descend into the abyss?” (that is, to call back Christ from the dead). (Abyssos g12)
8 Gonne poloko e e gautshwane mo go mongwe le mongwe wa rona; tota e gautshwane fela jaaka dipelo tsa rona le melomo.
But what does Scripture say? “The word is near, in your mouth and in your heart.” This is the word of faith, which we are preaching.
9 Gonne fa o bolelela ba bangwe ka molomo wa gago gore Jesu Keresete ke Morena wa gago, o bo o dumela mo pelong ya gago gore Modimo o mo tsositse mo baswing, o tlaa bolokwa.
For if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised him up from the dead, you shall be saved.
10 Gonne ke ka go dumela mo pelong ya gagwe gore motho o siama mo Modimong; mme ka molomo wa gagwe o bolelela ba bangwe kaga tumelo ya gagwe, a tlhomamisa kaga poloko ya gagwe.
For with the heart, we believe unto justice; but with the mouth, confession is unto salvation.
11 Gonne Dikwalo di re bolelela gore ga go na ope yo o dumelang mo go Keresete yo o tlaa tlhabisiwang ditlhong.
For Scripture says: “All those who believe in him shall not be confounded.”
12 Mojuta le Modichaba ba tshwana fela mo lobakeng lo: Botlhe ba na le Morena a le mongwe yo ka bopelotshweu ja gagwe o abelang botlhe dikhumo tse ba di mo kopang.
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek. For the same Lord is over all, richly in all who call upon him.
13 Le fa e le mang yo o bitsang leina la Morena o tlaa bolokwa.
For all those who have called upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 Mme ba tlaa mo kopa jang go ba boloka fa ba sa dumele mo go ene? Le gone ba ka dumela jang mo go ene fa ba ise ba ke ba bo ba utlwalele kaga gagwe? Gape ba ka utlwa jang kaga gagwe fa go sena ope yo o ba bolelelang?
Then in what way will those who have not believed in him call upon him? Or in what way will those who have not heard of him believe in him? And in what way will they hear of him without preaching?
15 Le gone mongwe o tlaa tsamaya jang a ya go ba bolelela fa mongwe a sa mo rome? Ke sone se Dikwalo di buang kaga sone fa di re, “Ana go go ntle jang dinao tsa ba ba rerang Mafoko a kagiso le Modimo, ba bo ba lere mafoko a a itumedisang a dilo tse di molemo.” Ka mafoko a mangwe ke gore, go amogelesega thata jang ba ba tlang ba rera Mafoko a Modimo a a Molemo!
And truly, in what way will they preach, unless they have been sent, just as it has been written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who evangelize peace, of those who evangelize what is good!”
16 Mme ga se mongwe le mongwe yo e a reng a utlwa Mafoko a a Molemo a a amogele, gonne Isaia moporofiti o rile, “Morena, ke mang yo o ntumetseng fa ke ba bolelela?”
But not all are obedient to the Gospel. For Isaiah says: “Lord, who has believed our report?”
17 Mme le fa go ntse jalo tumelo e tla ka go reetsa Mafoko a a Molemo a, Mafoko a a Molemo kaga Keresete.
Therefore, faith is from hearing, and hearing is through the Word of Christ.
18 Mme re tlaa reng ka Bajuta? A ba utlwile molaetsa wa Modimo? Ee, gonne molaetsa o ile gongwe le gongwe kwa ba leng teng, Mafoko a a Molemo a boletswe go ya khutlong tsa lefatshe.
But I say: Have they not heard? For certainly: “Their sound has gone forth throughout all the earth, and their words unto the limits of the whole world.”
19 Mme a ba ne ba tlhaloganya (gore Modimo o tlaa neela ba bangwe poloko fa ba gana go e amogela)? Ee, gonne le mo malatsing a bogologolo a lobaka lwa ga Moshe, Modimo o ne wa re o tlaa dira batho ba one go nna lefufa o bo o leka go ba tsosa ka go naya poloko ya one dichaba tsa dieleele tsa baheitane.
But I say: Has Israel not known? First, Moses says: “I will lead you into a rivalry with those who are not a nation; in the midst of a foolish nation, I will send you into wrath.”
20 Mme moragonyana Isaia a bua ka bopelokgale a re “Modimo o tlaa bonwa ke batho ba ba neng ba sa o batle.”
And Isaiah dares to say: “I was discovered by those who were not seeking me. I appeared openly to those who were not asking about me.”
21 Mo lobakanyaneng lo, Modimo o tsweletse ka go otlololela mabogo a one mo Bajuteng, mme ba tsweletse ka go tatalala ba gana go tla mo go one.
Then to Israel he says: “All day long I have stretched out my hands to a people who do not believe and who contradict me.”
