< Romans 1 >

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,
Pawl, Jesu Kri ih tamna, Sithaw tamthanglok hoih pongah, pahoe ih kami ah kaom, patoeh ih kami ah kawk ih kami mah,
2 which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
(to tamthanglok hoih loe kaciim Cabunawk thungah angmah ih tahmaanawk rang hoiah anih mah tangsuek na hoi lokkamhaih to sak boeh, )
3 concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,
taksa ah David ih atii ah kaom, a Capa aicae Angraeng Jesu Kri ih tamthang to;
4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
Muithla ciimcaihaih baktiah, duekhaih thung hoi angthawk moe, thacakhaih hoiah Sithaw Capa ni, tiah taphong:
5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;
Anih ih ahmin pongah, prae kaminawk boih mah lok to tahngaih o moe, tanghaih tawnh o thai hanah, anih rang hoiah ni tahmenhaih hoi patoeh ih kaminawk mah sak ih tok to a hnuk o:
6 among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;
nangcae doeh Jesu Kri mah kawk ih kami ah nathum o toeng boeh:
7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Sithaw mah palung moe, kaciim kami ah oh han kawk ih, Rom vangpui ah kaom kaminawk boih khaeah, Aicae Ampa Sithaw hoi Angraeng Jesu Kri khae ih monghaih hoi tahmenhaih nangcae khaeah om nasoe.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
Hmaloe koekah, na tang o haih to long pum ah thuih o boeh pongah, Jesu Kri rang hoiah nangcae boih han, Sithaw khaeah kawnhaih lok ka thuih.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
Boeng ai ah nangcae han lawk ka thuih toepsoep, ka palungthin boih hoiah kahoih a Capa ih tamthanglok to ka thuih, tiah a tok ka sak pae ih Sithaw mah panoek.
10 requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
Sithaw koehhaih hoiah nangcae khae angzoh thai hanah, lawk ka thuih.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
Thoemto Muithla tangqum nangcae han pazet moe, hnukkhuem ah tha na cak o thai hanah, nangcae hnuk han ka koeh parai.
12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
To tiah ni aicae mah tanghaih bangah maeto hoi maeto tha angpaek o thai tih.
13 Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (and was hindered so far), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
Nawkamyanawk, kalah Gentelnawk khaeah athaih ka pakhrik baktih toengah, nangcae khaeah doeh athaih ka pakhrik thai toeng hanah, nangcae ohhaih ahmuen ah angzoh han kam sak khing boeh, (toe vaihi khoek to pakaakung oh vop, ) tiah panoeksak han ka koeh.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
Kai loe Grik kaminawk, tuinuen kaham kaminawk, palungha kaminawk hoi palungha ai kaminawk khaeah doeh laiba ka tawnh.
15 So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
To pongah, Rom vangpui ah kaom nangcae khaeah doeh, ka thuih thai tawk kahoih tamthanglok to thuih hanah ka koeh.
16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
Kri ih kahoih tamthanglok pongah azathaih ka tawn ai: kahoih tamthanglok loe tang kaminawk boih pahlong hanah, Sithaw thacakhaih ah oh, hmaloe koekah Judahnawk hanah oh, to pacoengah Gentelnawk han doeh oh.
17 For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
Katoeng kami loe tanghaih hoiah hing tih, tiah tarik ih oh baktih toengah, tanghaih rang hoiah kaom Sithaw toenghaih loe, tanghaih rang hoiah ni amtueng.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
Sithaw palungphuihaih loe van bang hoiah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk, katoeng ai kaminawk hoi loktang to katoeng ai ah patoh kaminawk boih khaeah amtueng boeh.
19 because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
Sithaw mah nihcae khaeah hnuksak pongah, panoek han koi Sithaw ih hmuennawk to nihcae khaeah amtueng pae.
20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
Long oh tangsuek na hoi amtueng ai hmuennawk to kamtueng ah hnuk thai boeh, dungzan a thacakhaih hoi Sithaw ah ohhaih to, a sak ih hmuenawk rang hoiah kamtueng ah panoek boeh pongah, a sak o ih zaehaih to nihcae mah angphat o thai mak ai. (aïdios g126)
21 Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
Nihcae loe Sithaw panoek o, toe Anih to Sithaw baktiah pakoeh o ai, kawnhaih lok doeh thui o ai; nihcae poekhaih loe tidoeh avang ai, nihcae amthuhaih palung loe khoving baktiah tahmuep.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Angmacae hoi angmacae to palungha kami ah poek o, toe nihcae loe kamthu kami ni,
23 and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.
amro thai ai Sithaw lensawkhaih to amro thaih kami baktiah sakcop ih krang, tavaanawk, khok palito kaom moinawk hoi long ah kavak hmuennawk baktiah a sak pakhraih o ving.
24 Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
To pongah angmacae zae sak koehhaih palungthin baktih toengah, angmacae hoi angmacae salakah angmacae ih takpum to azatsak hanah, Sithaw mah nihcae han kaciim ai poekhaih to paek.
25 who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Nihcae loe loktang Sithaw to amsawn lok hoiah athlaeng o ving moe, dungzan tahamhoihaih ah kaom, Sahkung pongah, sak ih hmuen to a bok o lat. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.
Hae pongah Sithaw mah nihcae khaeah kasae sak koehhaih palungthin to paek: nongpatanawk loe sakzong ih hmuen baktiah sah o ai ah, sakzong ai ih hmuen to a sak o lat:
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
to baktih toengah nongpanawk mah doeh, nongpata hoi angkom zonghaih to pahnawt o moe, maeto hoi maeto zae sak koehhaih palungthin hmai baktiah bet o pongah, azat kaom hmuen ah kaom nongpa hoi nongpa zaehaih to a sak o, to tiah a sakpazae o ih hmuen baktih toengah nihcae mah atho to hnuk o.
28 Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
Nihcae loe Sithaw panoek han koeh o ai pongah, sak kahoih ai hmuennawk to saksak hanah, Sithaw mah kamro poekhaih to nihcae hanah paek;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,
nihcae loe zaehaih congca, toeng ai ah khosakhaih, zu sava laep ah nongpa hoi nongpata zae sakhaih, poeksethaih, kamthlai hmoek koehhaih, hnukmahaih, uthaih, humhaih, angaekhaih, alinghaih, poeksethaih, kami pronghaih hoiah koi o,
30 backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
ahmin kasae thui kami, Sithaw hnuma kami, kami khet patoek kami, poeksang kami, amoek kami, kahoih ai hmuennawk sah kami, amno hoi ampa lok tahngai ai kami,
31 without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;
panoek thai ai kami, oepthok ai kami, amlunghaih tawn ai kami, misa koeh kami, palungnathaih tawn ai kami ah oh o.
32 who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
To baktih toksah kami loe duek han krak, tiah Sithaw lokcaekhaih to nihcae mah panoek o, toe nihcae loe to baktih hmuennawk sak khue to khawt ai, to baktih hmuen sak hanah kaminawk to thapaek o.
