Romans 3
1 Ǹjẹ́ àǹfààní wo ní Júù ní? Tàbí kín ni èrè ilà kíkọ?
What preferment then hath the Iewe? other what a vauntageth circumcision?
2 Púpọ̀ lọ́nà gbogbo; pàtàkì jùlọ ni pé àwọn ni a fi ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run lé lọ́wọ́.
Surely very moche. Fyrst vnto them was committed the worde of God
3 Ǹjẹ́ kí ha ni bí àwọn kan jẹ́ aláìgbàgbọ́? Àìgbàgbọ́ wọn yóò ha sọ òtítọ́ Ọlọ́run di asán bí?
What then though some of them did not beleve? shall their vnbeleve make the promes of god with out effecte?
4 Kí a má rí! Kí Ọlọ́run jẹ́ olóòtítọ́, àti olúkúlùkù ènìyàn jẹ́ èké; gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ pé: “Kí a lè dá ọ láre nínú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n kí ìwọ lè borí nígbà tí ìwọ bá wá sí ìdájọ́.”
God forbid. Let god be true and all men lyars as it is written: That thou myghtest be iustifyed in thy sayinge and shuldest overcome when thou arte iudged.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n bí àìṣòdodo wa bá fi òdodo Ọlọ́run hàn, kín ni àwa ó wí? Ọlọ́run ha jẹ́ àìṣòdodo bí, nígbà tí ó bá ń fi ìbínú rẹ̀ hàn? (Mo fi ṣe àkàwé bí ènìyàn.)
Yf oure vnrightewesnes make the rightewesnes of God more excellent: what shall we saye? Is God vnrighteous which taketh vengeauce? I speake after the maner of me.
6 Kí a má rí i. Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ bá ni, Ọlọ́run yóò ha ṣe lè dájọ́ aráyé?
God forbid. For how then shall God iudge the worlde?
7 Nítorí bí òtítọ́ Ọlọ́run bá di púpọ̀ sí ìyìn rẹ̀ nítorí èké mi, èéṣe tí a fi ń dá mi lẹ́jọ́ bí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀?
Yf the veritie of God appere moare excellent thorow my lye vnto his prayse why am I hence forth iudged as a synner?
8 Èéṣe tí a kò fi ṣe búburú kí rere lè jáde wá? Bí àwọn kan tí ń fi ẹnu àtẹ́ sọ wí pé a ń sọ bẹ́ẹ̀; ti àwọn kan sì ń tẹnumọ́ ọn pé a sọ; àwọn ẹni tí ìdálẹ́bi wọn tọ́.
and saye not rather (as men evyll speake of vs and as some affirme that we saye) let vs do evyll that good maye come therof. Whose damnacion is iuste.
9 Ǹjẹ́ kí ha ni? Àwa ha sàn ju wọn lọ bí? Kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ rárá, nítorí a fihàn ṣáájú pé àti àwọn Júù àti àwọn Giriki, gbogbo wọn ni ó wà lábẹ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.
What saye we then? Are we better then they? No in no wyse. For we have all ready proved how that both Iewes and Gentils are all vnder synne
10 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ pé, “Kò sí ẹni tí í ṣe olódodo, kò sí ẹnìkan,
as it is writte: There is none righteous no not one:
11 kò sí ẹni tí òye yé, kò sí ẹni tí ó ń wá Ọlọ́run.
There is none that vnderstondith there is none yt seketh after God
12 Gbogbo wọn ni ó ti yapa, wọ́n jùmọ̀ di aláìlérè; kò sí ẹni tí ń ṣe rere, kò tilẹ̀ sí ẹnìkan.”
they are all gone out of ye waye they are all made vnprofytable ther is none that doeth good no not one.
13 “Ibojì tí ó ṣí sílẹ̀ ní ọ̀fun wọn: ahọ́n wọn n sọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀tàn.” “Oró paramọ́lẹ̀ ń bẹ lábẹ́ ètè wọn.”
Their throte is an open sepulchre with their tounges they have disceaved: the poyson of Aspes is vnder their lippes.
14 “Ẹnu ẹni tí ó kún fún èpè àti fún oró kíkorò.”
Whose mouthes are full of coursynge and bitternes.
15 “Ẹsẹ̀ wọn yára láti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ sílẹ̀,
Their fete are swyfte to sheed bloud.
16 ìparun àti ìpọ́njú wà lọ́nà wọn.
Destruccion and wretchednes are in their wayes.
17 Ọ̀nà àlàáfíà ni wọn kò sì mọ̀,”
And the waye of peace they have not knowen.
18 “Ìbẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run kò sí níwájú wọn.”
There is no feare of God before their eyes.
19 Àwa sì mọ̀ pé ohunkóhun tí òfin bá wí, ó ń wí fún àwọn tí ó wà lábẹ́ òfin: kí gbogbo ẹnu bá à lè dákẹ́ àti kí a lè mú gbogbo aráyé wá sábẹ́ ìdájọ́ Ọlọ́run.
Ye and we knowe that whatsoever ye lawe sayth he sayth it to them which are vnder the lawe. That all mouthes maye be stopped and all the worlde be subdued to god
20 Nítorí pé nípa iṣẹ́ òfin, a kì yóò dá ẹnikẹ́ni láre níwájú rẹ̀: nítorí nípa òfin ni ìmọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ti wá.
because that by ye dedes of the lawe shall no flesshe be iustified in the sight of God. For by the lawe commeth the knowledge of synne.
21 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, a ti fi òdodo Ọlọ́run hàn láìsí òfin, tí a ti ń jẹ́rìí sí nípa òfin àti nípa àwọn wòlíì,
Now verely is ye rigtewesnes that cometh of God declared without the fulfillinge of ye lawe havinge witnes yet of ye lawe and of the Prophetes.
22 àní òdodo Ọlọ́run nípa ìgbàgbọ́ nínú Jesu Kristi, sí gbogbo ènìyàn àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó gbàgbọ́, nítorí tí kò sí ìyàtọ̀ láàrín Júù àti Helleni.
The rightewesnes no dout which is good before God cometh by ye fayth of Iesus Christ vnto all and vpon all that beleve. Ther is no differece:
23 Gbogbo ènìyàn ni ó ṣá ti ṣẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì kùnà ògo Ọlọ́run,
for all have synned and lacke the prayse yt is of valoure before God:
24 àwọn ẹni tí a ń dá láre lọ́fẹ̀ẹ́ nípa oore-ọ̀fẹ́ rẹ̀, nípa ìdáǹdè tí ó wà nínú Kristi Jesu.
but are iustified frely by his grace through the redemcion that is in Christ Iesu
25 Ẹni tí Ọlọ́run ti gbé kalẹ̀ láti jẹ́ ètùtù nípa ìgbàgbọ́ nípa ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀, láti fi òdodo rẹ̀ hàn nítorí ìdáríjì àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí ó ti kọjá, nínú ìpamọ́ra Ọlọ́run,
whom God hath made a seate of mercy thorow faith in his bloud to shewe ye rightewesnes which before him is of valoure in yt he forgeveth ye synnes yt are passed which God dyd suffre
26 láti fi òdodo rẹ̀ hàn ní ìgbà ìsinsin yìí: kí ó lè jẹ́ olódodo àti olùdáláre ẹni tí ó gba Jesu gbọ́.
to shewe at this tyme ye rightewesnes yt is alowed of him yt he myght be couted iuste and a iustifiar of him which belevith on Iesus.
27 Ọ̀nà ìṣògo dà? A ti mú un kúrò. Nípa òfin wo? Nípa iṣẹ́? Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n nípa òfin ìgbàgbọ́.
Where is then thy reioysinge? It is excluded. By what lawe? by ye lawe of workes? Naye: but by the lawe of fayth.
28 Nítorí náà, a parí rẹ̀ sí pé nípa ìgbàgbọ́ ni a ń dá ènìyàn láre láìsí iṣẹ́ òfin.
For we suppose that a man is iustified by fayth without the dedes of ye lawe.
29 Ọlọ́run àwọn Júù nìkan ha ni bí? Kì í ha ṣe ti àwọn aláìkọlà pẹ̀lú? Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ti àwọn aláìkọlà pẹ̀lú.
Is he the God of the Iewes only? Is he not also the God of the Gentyls? Yes eve of the Gentyles also.
30 Bí ó ti jẹ́ pé Ọlọ́run kan ni, yóò dá àwọn akọlà láre nípa ìgbàgbọ́ àti àwọn aláìkọlà nípa ìgbàgbọ́ wọn.
For it is God only which iustifieth circumcision which is of fayth and vncircumcision thorow fayth.
31 Àwa ha ń sọ òfin dasán nípa ìgbàgbọ́ bí? Kí a má rí i, ṣùgbọ́n a ń fi òfin múlẹ̀.
Do we then destroye the lawe thorow fayth? God forbid. But we rather mayntayne the lawe.
