varumi 2
1 pe lino nutavulilue, uve ghwejuno ghuhigha ulwakuva ku ghala ghano ghuhigha ujunge ikujivika jujuo mu nkole. ulwakuva ghwenjuo ghuhigha najuve ghuvomba ghala ghala.
Therefore you have nothing to say in your own defence, whoever you are who set yourself up as a judge. In judging others you condemn yourself, for you who set yourself up as a judge do the very same things.
2 neke tukagula kuuti, uvuhighi vwa Nguluve vwa lweli ku vano vivomba ndavule aghuo.
And we know that God’s judgment falls unerringly upon those who do them.
3 neke uve usaghaghe ili kuuti uve ghwe juno ghuhigha vala vano vivomba aghuo nambe najuve ghuvomba ghaghaghuo. pe uve naghuli highua nu Nguluve?
You who judge those that do such things and yet are yourself guilty of them — do you suppose that you of all men will escape God’s judgment?
4 neke ghusagha padebe ku vwinga vwa vunono vwake, kudila kwa ng'alasi jake, nu lugudo lwake? pe naghukagula kuuti uvunono vwake vunoghiile kukuvulanisia kulaata?
Or do you think lightly of his abundant kindness, patience, and forbearance, not realising that his kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?
5 pe kuling'ana nu vwumu vwa mwoojo ghwako ghuno naghwa kulaata, ghukujivika juve mu ng'alasi ja kighono kila. looli mu kighono kya vusyuko vwa vuhighi vwa kyang'haani vwa Nguluve.
Hard-hearted and impenitent as you are, you are storing up for yourself Wrath on the ‘Day of Wrath,’ when God’s justice as a judge will be revealed;
6 umwene ihomba kuling'ana ni kighelelo kya maghenndele ghake.
for ‘he will give to every man what his actions deserve.’
7 vala vano ku lukangasio lwa maghendele amanono valondile ulufunyo, uvukoola na kuleka kunangika, ikivapela uvwumi vwa kusila na kusila. (aiōnios g166)
To those who, by perseverance in doing good, aim at glory, honour, and all that is imperishable, he will give Immortal Life; (aiōnios g166)
8 neke ku vala vano ku numbula saave navitiki vwa kyang'haani looli vikwitika uvukunyi, ing'halasi ing'ali jikwisa.
while as to those who are factious, and disobedient to Truth but obedient to Evil, wrath and anger, distress and despair,
9 uNguluve ileta injala nu lupumuko ku numbula ja muunhu ghweni juno avombile uvuhosi, kutengulila kwa muyahudi taasi pe kwa muyunani kange.
will fall upon every human being who persists in wrong-doing — upon the Jew first, but also upon the Greek.
10 neke ulufunyo, uvukoola nu lutengano fikwisa kwa muunhu ghweni juno ivomba inono, kwa vayunani taasi pe umuyunani kange.
But there will be glory, honour, and peace for every one who does right — for the Jew first, but also for the Greek,
11 ulwakuva kusila lughano kukila kwa Nguluve.
since God shows no partiality.
12 ulwakuva nave vinga vahokile kisila ndaghilo visova kisila ndaghilo, kange nave vinga vahokile kuling'ana ni ndaghilo vihighua ku ndaaghilo.
All who, when they sin, are without Law will also perish without Law; while all who, when they sin, are under Law, will be judged as being under Law.
13 ulwakuva natuli vaanhu va kupulika indaghilo, avanya kyang'haani pa maaso gha Nguluve, looli ve vala vano vivomba indaghilo vano vailivalilua ikyang'haani.
It is not those who hear the words of a Law that are righteous before God, but it is those who obey it that will be pronounced righteous.
14 ulwakuva avaanhu ava pa iisi avasila ndaghilo vivomba isa mundaghilo aveene vali ndaghilo mu numbula saave, nambe aveene vasila ndaghilo.
When Gentiles, who have no Law, do instinctively what the Law requires, they, though they have no Law, are a Law to themselves;
15 ku ulu vivonesia kuuti amaghendele ghano ghanoghile ku vutavike vwa ndaghilo ghalembilue nkate ja moojo ghave. uvufumbue vwave vuvoneka na masaghe ghave ghikuvahigha nambe kukuvalolelela vavuo
for they show the demands of the Law written upon their hearts; their consciences corroborating it, while in their thoughts they argue either in self-accusation or, it may be, in self-defence —
16 kange na kwa Nguluve. agha ghilihumila mu kighono kino uNguluve ilikusihigha inyivi sa vaanhu vooni kuling'haana ni livangili lya Nguluve, kusila ja Yesu Kilisite.
on the day when God passes judgment on men’s inmost lives, as the Good News that I tell declares that he will do through Christ Jesus.
17 tujove kuuti ghukujikemela muYahudi, juuno ikalile mu ndaghilo, lulutila kwa kujighinia mwa Nguluve,
But, perhaps, you bear the name of ‘Jew,’ and are relying upon Law, and boast of belonging to God, and understand his will,
18 lukagule ulughano lwake, na kughelela sino nasilutana ye jilaghisivue ni ndaghilo.
and, having been carefully instructed from the Law, have learned to appreciate the finer moral distinctions.
19 pe tujove kuuti uli nulukangasio kuva uve uli mulongosi ghwa vabofu amaaso, lumuli kuvala vano vali mu ng'iisi,
Perhaps you are confident that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in the dark, an instructor of the unintelligent,
20 m'bulanisi ghwa vajaasu, m'bulanisi ghwa vaanha, na kuuti mu ndaghilo uli ni mbuanisio sa lweli.
and a teacher of the childish, because in the Law you possess the outline of all Knowledge and Truth.
21 pe uve lino ghwe juno ghukun'dalikila ujunge, pe naghukujivulanisia juve ghwe mwene? ghwe juno ghudalikila kuleka kuhija pe uve naghuhija?
Why, then, you teacher of others, do not you teach yourself? Do you preach against stealing, and yet steal?
22 uve ghwejuno ghujova nungavwafukaghe, pe ghuvwafuka? uve ghwe juno ghukalala ikihwanikisio, pe ghuhija mu nyumba inyimike ja kufunyila?
Do you forbid adultery, and yet commit adultery? Do you loathe idols, and yet plunder temples?
23 ghwe juno ghukughinia mu ndaghilo, pe naghukunsukunalisa uNguluve kwa kudenya indaghilo?
Boasting, as you do, of your Law, do you dishonour God by breaking the Law?
24 ulwakuva ilitavua lwa Nguluve lisukunalisivua ku vaanhu va mu iisi kukilila umue, “ndavule jilembilue”.
For, as Scripture says — ‘The name of God is reviled among the Gentiles because of you’!
25 ulwakuva kudumulivua ingola lweli kunoghile nave ghukwitikila indaghilo, neke nave uve naghuvomba isa mu ndaghilo kudumulivua kwave kuuva vuvule.
Circumcision has its value, if you are obeying the Law. But, if you are a breaker of the Law, your circumcision is no better than uncircumcision.
26 pe nave umuunhu nadumulivue kange ighendelela kukola uvutavike vwa ndaghilo, pe nambe kisila kudumulivua kwa mwene nakulitolua kuuti adumulivue ingola?”.
If, then, an uncircumcised man pays regard to the requirements of the Law, will not he, although not circumcised, be regarded by God as if he were?
27 ghwope juno nadumulivue kuvutengulilo vwa iisi naihighua nave angavombe isa ndaghilo? ulu lwe lwakuva uli na malembe ghano ghalembilue na kudumulua ingola neka kange naghuvomba isa mundaghilo!
Indeed, the man who, owing to his birth, remains uncircumcised, and yet scrupulously obeys the Law, will condemn you, who, for all your written Law and your circumcision, are yet a breaker of the Law.
28 ulwakuva umwene na Muyahudi juno ali mulwa kunji, nambe kudumulua na lwelula ulwa m'bili lwene.
For a man who is only a Jew outwardly is not a real Jew; nor is outward bodily circumcision real circumcision. The real Jew is the man who is a Jew in soul;
29 neke umwene ghwe Muyahudi ghwa munkate, nuludumuluo lwa mwoojo mu numbula, nambe mu malembe. ulufunyo lwa muunhu ughwa nahele naluhumila ku vaanhu looli kwa Nguluve.
and the real circumcision is the circumcision of the heart, a spiritual and not a literal thing. Such a man wins praise from God, though not from men.
