Rooma 13
1 Naf waluba ha ka dambayso kuwa amarka sare leh, waayo, amar ma jiro kan Ilaah ka yimaada mooyaane. Kuwa jirana Ilaah baa ka dhigay kuwa amar leh.
Let every soul be subject to the authorities that are above [him]. For there is no authority except from God; and those that exist are set up by God.
2 Sidaas daraaddeed kii diida kan amarka leh wuxuu hor joogsadaa amarka Ilaah, kuwa hor joogsadaana waxay nafahaantooda u heli doonaan xukun.
So that he that sets himself in opposition to the authority resists the ordinance of God; and they who [thus] resist shall bring sentence of guilt on themselves.
3 Madaxdu cabsi ma geliyaan kuwa shuqul wanaagsan sameeya, kuwa xumaan sameeya mooyaane. Ma waxaad doonaysaa inaadan ka cabsan kan amarka leh? Wax wanaagsan samee, oo ammaan baad ka helaysaa isla isaga.
For rulers are not a terror to a good work, but to an evil [one]. Dost thou desire then not to be afraid of the authority? practise [what is] good, and thou shalt have praise from it;
4 Waayo, isagu wuxuu xaggaaga ku yahay midiidinka Ilaah inuu wanaag kuu sameeyo. Laakiinse haddaad xumaan samaysid, cabso, waayo, isagu seefta uma sito sababla'aan. Maxaa yeelay, isagu waa midiidinka Ilaah, oo waa mid cadho kaga aarsada kii xumaan sameeya.
for it is God's minister to thee for good. But if thou practisest evil, fear; for it bears not the sword in vain; for it is God's minister, an avenger for wrath to him that does evil.
5 Sidaas daraaddeed waa in laga dambeeyo kan amarka leh, mana aha cadhada aawadeed oo keliya, laakiinse waa niyadda aawadeedna.
Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience.
6 Waayo, sababtaas aawadeed waxaad u bixisaan cashuur, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waa midiidinnadii Ilaah oo had iyo goor ka shaqeeya isla waxaas.
For on this account ye pay tribute also; for they are God's officers, attending continually on this very thing.
7 Mid waluba wuxuu idinku leeyahay siiya, kii baad idinku leh, baad siiya, kii cashuur idinku leh, cashuur siiya, kii laga cabsadana, ka cabsada, kii ciso lehna, ciseeya.
Render to all their dues: to whom tribute [is due], tribute; to whom custom, custom; to whom fear, fear; to whom honour, honour.
8 Ninna yuusan wax idinku lahaan in midkiinba midka kale jeclaado mooyaane. Waayo, kii deriskiisa jeclaadaa sharciguu oofiyey.
Owe no one anything, unless to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law.
9 Waayo, amarradan la yidhi, Waa inaanad sinaysan, Waa inaanad qudh gooyn, Waa inaanad waxba xadin, Waa inaanad wax damcin, oo haddii amar kale jirana, waxaa lagu soo koobay hadalkan, Waa inaad deriskaaga u jeclaataa sida naftaada.
For, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not lust; and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
10 Jacaylku xumaan kuma sameeyo deriskiisa; jacaylku haddaba waa oofinta sharciga.
Love works no ill to its neighbour; love therefore [is the] whole law.
11 Oo weliba waad garanaysaan wakhtiga inay haatan tahay saacaddii aad hurdada ka toosi lahaydeen, waayo, haatan ay badbaadintu inooga dhow dahay markii horoo aan rumaysannay.
This also, knowing the time, that it is already time that we should be aroused out of sleep; for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed.
12 Habeenkii hore buu u batay, maalintiina waa soo dhowaatay, sidaas daraaddeed aan iska dhigno shuqullada gudcurka oo aan qaadanno hubka iftiinka.
The night is far spent, and the day is near; let us cast away therefore the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
13 Sida iyadoo maalin ah aynu si qumman u soconno, yeynan ku socon rabshad iyo sakhraannimo, yeynan ku socon galmo iyo dhillanimo, yeynan ku socon ilaaq iyo hinaaso.
As in the day, let us walk becomingly; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and lasciviousness, not in strife and emulation.
14 Laakiin Rabbi Ciise Masiix huwada, oo jidhka ha ka fikirina inaad damacyadiisa samaysaan.
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not take forethought for the flesh to [fulfil its] lusts.
