رُوما 3

١ 1 إِذًا مَا هُوَ فَضْلُ ٱلْيَهُودِيِّ، أَوْ مَا هُوَ نَفْعُ ٱلْخِتَانِ؟

Then what advantage does the Jew have? Or what is the profit of circumcision?

٢ 2 كَثِيرٌ عَلَى كُلِّ وَجْهٍ! أَمَّا أَوَّلًا فَلِأَنَّهُمُ ٱسْتُؤْمِنُوا عَلَى أَقْوَالِ ٱللهِ.

Much in every way. Because first of all, they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

٣ 3 فَمَاذَا إِنْ كَانَ قَوْمٌ لَمْ يَكُونُوا أُمَنَاءَ؟ أَفَلَعَلَّ عَدَمَ أَمَانَتِهِمْ يُبْطِلُ أَمَانَةَ ٱللهِ؟

For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God?

٤ 4 حَاشَا! بَلْ لِيَكُنِ ٱللهُ صَادِقًا وَكُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ كَاذِبًا. كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «لِكَيْ تَتَبَرَّرَ فِي كَلَامِكَ، وَتَغْلِبَ مَتَى حُوكِمْتَ».

Absolutely not. Let God be found true, but every human being a liar. As it is written, "That you may be justified in your words, and prevail when you judge."

٥ 5 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ إِثْمُنَا يُبَيِّنُ بِرَّ ٱللهِ، فَمَاذَا نَقُولُ؟ أَلَعَلَّ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي يَجْلِبُ ٱلْغَضَبَ ظَالِمٌ؟ أَتَكَلَّمُ بِحَسَبِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ.

But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? (I am speaking in human terms).

٦ 6 حَاشَا! فَكَيْفَ يَدِينُ ٱللهُ ٱلْعَالَمَ إِذْ ذَاكَ؟

Absolutely not. For then how will God judge the world?

٧ 7 فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ صِدْقُ ٱللهِ قَدِ ٱزْدَادَ بِكَذِبِي لِمَجْدِهِ، فَلِمَاذَا أُدَانُ أَنَا بَعْدُ كَخَاطِئٍ؟

For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?

٨ 8 أَمَا كَمَا يُفْتَرَى عَلَيْنَا، وَكَمَا يَزْعُمُ قَوْمٌ أَنَّنَا نَقُولُ: «لِنَفْعَلِ ٱلسَّيِّآتِ لِكَيْ تَأْتِيَ ٱلْخَيْرَاتُ»؟ ٱلَّذِينَ دَيْنُونَتُهُمْ عَادِلَةٌ.

And why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), "Let us do evil, that good may come?" Their condemnation is just.

٩ 9 فَمَاذَا إِذًا؟ أَنَحْنُ أَفْضَلُ؟ كَلَّا ٱلْبَتَّةَ! لِأَنَّنَا قَدْ شَكَوْنَا أَنَّ ٱلْيَهُودَ وَٱلْيُونَانِيِّينَ أَجْمَعِينَ تَحْتَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ،

What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin.

١٠ 10 كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ بَارٌّ وَلَا وَاحِدٌ.

As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one."

١١ 11 لَيْسَ مَنْ يَفْهَمُ. لَيْسَ مَنْ يَطْلُبُ ٱللهَ.

"There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

١٢ 12 ٱلْجَمِيعُ زَاغُوا وَفَسَدُوا مَعًا. لَيْسَ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ صَلَاحًا لَيْسَ وَلَا وَاحِدٌ.

They have all turned aside. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, there is not even one."

١٣ 13 حَنْجَرَتُهُمْ قَبْرٌ مَفْتُوحٌ. بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ قَدْ مَكَرُوا. سِمُّ ٱلْأَصْلَالِ تَحْتَ شِفَاهِهِمْ.

"Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit." "Viper's poison is under their lips;"

١٤ 14 وَفَمُهُمْ مَمْلُوءٌ لَعْنَةً وَمَرَارَةً.

"Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness."

١٥ 15 أَرْجُلُهُمْ سَرِيعَةٌ إِلَى سَفْكِ ٱلدَّمِ.

"Their feet are swift to shed blood.

١٦ 16 فِي طُرُقِهِمِ ٱغْتِصَابٌ وَسُحْقٌ.

Destruction and calamity are in their paths.

١٧ 17 وَطَرِيقُ ٱلسَّلَامِ لَمْ يَعْرِفُوهُ.

The way of peace, they have not known."

١٨ 18 لَيْسَ خَوْفُ ٱللهِ قُدَّامَ عُيُونِهِمْ».

"There is no fear of God before their eyes."

١٩ 19 وَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا يَقُولُهُ ٱلنَّامُوسُ فَهُوَ يُكَلِّمُ بِهِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلنَّامُوسِ، لِكَيْ يَسْتَدَّ كُلُّ فَمٍ، وَيَصِيرَ كُلُّ ٱلْعَالَمِ تَحْتَ قِصَاصٍ مِنَ ٱللهِ.

Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

٢٠ 20 لِأَنَّهُ بِأَعْمَالِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ كُلُّ ذِي جَسَدٍ لَا يَتَبَرَّرُ أَمَامَهُ. لِأَنَّ بِٱلنَّامُوسِ مَعْرِفَةَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ.

Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight. For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

٢١ 21 وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَقَدْ ظَهَرَ بِرُّ ٱللهِ بِدُونِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ، مَشْهُودًا لَهُ مِنَ ٱلنَّامُوسِ وَٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ،

But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the Law and the Prophets;

٢٢ 22 بِرُّ ٱللهِ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، إِلَى كُلِّ وَعَلَى كُلِّ ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ. لِأَنَّهُ لَا فَرْقَ.

even the righteousness of God through faith in Yeshua the Messiah to all who believe. For there is no distinction,

٢٣ 23 إِذِ ٱلْجَمِيعُ أَخْطَأُوا وَأَعْوَزَهُمْ مَجْدُ ٱللهِ،

for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

٢٤ 24 مُتَبَرِّرِينَ مَجَّانًا بِنِعْمَتِهِ بِٱلْفِدَاءِ ٱلَّذِي بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ،

being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Messiah Yeshua;

٢٥ 25 ٱلَّذِي قَدَّمَهُ ٱللهُ كَفَّارَةً بِٱلْإِيمَانِ بِدَمِهِ، لِإِظْهَارِ بِرِّهِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلصَّفْحِ عَنِ ٱلْخَطَايَا ٱلسَّالِفَةِ بِإِمْهَالِ ٱللهِ،

whom God displayed publicly as a mercy seat, through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness, because in God's forbearance he had passed over the sins previously committed;

٢٦ 26 لِإِظْهَارِ بِرِّهِ فِي ٱلزَّمَانِ ٱلْحَاضِرِ، لِيَكُونَ بَارًّا وَيُبَرِّرَ مَنْ هُوَ مِنَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ بِيَسُوعَ.

to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, so that he would be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Yeshua.

٢٧ 27 فَأَيْنَ ٱلٱفْتِخَارُ؟ قَدِ ٱنْتَفَى. بِأَيِّ نَامُوسٍ؟ أَبِنَامُوسِ ٱلْأَعْمَالِ؟ كَلَّا. بَلْ بِنَامُوسِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ.

Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what manner of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.

٢٨ 28 إِذًا نَحْسِبُ أَنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ يَتَبَرَّرُ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ بِدُونِ أَعْمَالِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ.

For we maintain that one is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

٢٩ 29 أَمِ ٱللهُ لِلْيَهُودِ فَقَطْ؟ أَلَيْسَ لِلْأُمَمِ أَيْضًا؟ بَلَى، لِلْأُمَمِ أَيْضًا.

Or is God for Jews only? Is he not the God of the non-Jews also? Yes, of the non-Jews also,

٣٠ 30 لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ وَاحِدٌ، هُوَ ٱلَّذِي سَيُبَرِّرُ ٱلْخِتَانَ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلْغُرْلَةَ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ.

since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.

٣١ 31 أَفَنُبْطِلُ ٱلنَّامُوسَ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ؟ حَاشَا! بَلْ نُثَبِّتُ ٱلنَّامُوسَ.

Do we then nullify the law through faith? Absolutely not. No, we establish the law.
