Romans 3
1 Then what advantage does the Jew have? Or what is the profit of circumcision?
Wu, Myawudi ana chindu choki chingi chechiyonjokisi kuliku vandu vangi? Amala kudumula jandu kuna chiyonjokesu?
2 Much in every way! Because first of all, they were entrusted with the revelations of God.
Ena, chivili chiyonjokesu. Kutumbula, Chapanga avagotolili Vayawudi ujumbi waki.
3 For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God?
Nambu yivya wuli ngati vangi vavi vangasadika? Wu, lijambu lenili yati liwusa usadikika wa Chapanga?
4 May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, “that you might be justified in your words, and might prevail when you come into judgment.”
Hati padebe! Leka Chapanga alolekana mchakaka magono goha, hati ngati kila mundu mdese. Ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova, “Kila pewijova, ulangisa uchakaka, pevakuhamula, yati wihotola pevakutakili.”
5 But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do.
Nambu, ngati uhakau witu ulangisa Chapanga ikita gabwina, hinu tijova wuli? Wu, tijova Chapanga ibuda peakutihamula? Penapa nilongela chiumundu.
6 May it never be! For then how will God judge the world?
Hati padebe! Ngayivyai naha, Chapanga ngaihotola wuli kuvahamula vandu voha va pamulima?
7 For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
Mundu ihotola kukota, “Ngati udese wangu yati utangatila kulangisa neju uchakaka wa Chapanga na kulangisa ukulu waki, hinu ndava kyani nihamuliwa kuvya nimbudili Chapanga!”
8 Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), “Let’s do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned.
Hinu ndava kyani tijova lepi, tikitayi gahakau ndi tipatayi gabwina! Vandu vatiligili, vakajova kuvya nene niwula chenicho. Yati vihamuliwa ngati cheyiganikiwa.
9 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.
Hinu tijova kyani? Wu, Tavayawudi tavabwina kuliku vandu vangi? Hati padebe! Ngati chenivajovili pakutumbula kuvya Vayawudi na vandu vangali Vayawudi voha vetalaliwa na kubuda.
10 As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.
Ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova, “Kawaka hati mmonga mweavili mbwina palongolo ya Chapanga!
11 There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.
Kawaka mundu mweamanyili, mewa kawaka hati mmonga mweinogela kumlonda Chapanga.
12 They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”
Voha vamlekili Chapanga, voha vabudili, kawaka mweikita gabwina, kawaka hati mmonga.
13 “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”
Malovi gavi ginunga ngati litinda leligubukuliwi, lulimi lwavi lumemili udese, Mu milomo yavi gihuma malovi gana chimatila ngati cha liyoka.
14 “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”
Milomo yavi yimemili likoto na lipyanda.
15 “Their feet are swift to shed blood.
Vandu avo vihamba kanyata kukoma vandu,
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways.
Poha pevihamba vihalabisa na kuleka mang'ahiso.
17 The way of peace, they haven’t known.”
Vamanyili lepi kutama cha uteke.
18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
Vakumyogopa lepi Chapanga hati padebe.”
19 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.
Hinu timanyili kuvya malagizu ga Musa peyijova na vandu vala veviganikiwa kulongoswa na malagizu, muni kila mundu akotoka kuhotola kujikengelela, na vandu voha vahamuliwa na Chapanga.
20 Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
Muni kawaka mundu yoyoha mweiyidikiwa kuvya mbwina palongolo ya Chapanga kwa kuyidakila Malagizu. Nambu malagizu gakutikita timanya kubuda.
21 But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;
Nambu hinu, njila ya Chapanga ya kuvayidikila vandu kuvya vabwina palongola yaki yimali kumanyikana. Njila yeniyi yihuvalila lepi Malagizu ga Musa. Hati hitabu ya Malagizu vyeviyandikwi na Musa na vamlota Chapanga vijova lijambu lenili.
22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,
Chapanga akuvakita vandu kuvya vabwina palongolo yaki kwa kumsadika Yesu Kilisitu. Chapanga ikita chenichi kwa voha vevakumsadika Kilisitu, kawaka mlekengano kwa Vayawudi na vandu vangali Vayawudi.
23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
Vandu voha vambudili Chapanga na vavi kutali na ukulu wa Chapanga.
24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
Nambu kwa njombi waka ya ubwina wa Chapanga, vandu voha viyidikiwa kuvya vabwina kwa njila ya Yesu Kilisitu mweakuvagombola.
25 whom God sent to be an atoning sacrifice through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God’s forbearance;
Chapanga amuwusili Yesu avya luteta, muni kwa ngasi yaki ahotola avalekekesa vandu kumbudila Chapanga kwa sadika yavi kwa Yesu Kilisitu. Akitili chenicho muni alangisa ubwina waki palongolo ya vandu. Kwakona Kilisitu kufwa Chapanga alolili ndu changali kuvabuna ndava ya mabudilu gavi.
26 to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time, that he might himself be just and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.
Nambu kwa lukumbi ulu amuwusili Yesu muni kulangisa mwene ndi mbwina, na kwa kukita chenicho Chapanga ilangisa kuvya mwene ndi mbwina na ihotola kuvakita vandu kuvya vabwina palongolo yaki kwa kumsadika Yesu.
27 Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
Hinu tihotola kumekela kyani? Kawaka! Ndava kyani! Wu, mundu ihotola kumeka ndava kuyidakila Malagizu ga Chapanga? Lepi! Nambu muni tikumsadika Yesu Kilisitu.
28 We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
Ndava muni tilola kuvya Chapanga akumkita mundu kuvya mbwina palongolo yaki kwa njila ya sadika, lepi kwa kuyidakila Malagizu.
29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Isn’t he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,
Wu, Chapanga ndi Chapanga wa Vayawudi vene ndu? Wu mwene lepi Chapanga wa vandu vangali Vayawudi mewawa? Ena, mwene ndi Chapanga wa vandu vangali Vayawudi mewawa.
30 since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.
Chapanga ndi mmonga, na akuvakita Vayawudi vavya vabwina palongolo yaki kwa sadika yavi, mewawa akuvakita vandu vangali Vayawudi vavyayi vabwina palongolo yaki kwa njila ya sadika yiyoyo.
31 Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.
Wu, hinu tikuyivika kutali Malagizu kwa sadika iyi? Hati padebe, nambu tikuyitopesa Malagizu.
