rōmiṇaḥ 15

1 balavadbhirasmābhi rdurbbalānāṁ daurbbalyaṁ sōḍhavyaṁ na ca svēṣām iṣṭācāra ācaritavyaḥ|

WE then, the strong, are obligated to bear up the infirmities of the weak, and not ourselves to please.

2 asmākam ēkaikō janaḥ svasamīpavāsinō hitārthaṁ niṣṭhārthañca tasyaivēṣṭācāram ācaratu|

But let every one of us please his neighbour in good things as unto edification.

3 yataḥ khrīṣṭō'pi nijēṣṭācāraṁ nācaritavān, yathā likhitam āstē, tvannindakagaṇasyaiva nindābhi rninditō'smyahaṁ|

Because the Meshiha also pleased not himself; but as it is written, The reproach of thy reproachers hath fallen upon me.

4 aparañca vayaṁ yat sahiṣṇutāsāntvanayō rjanakēna śāstrēṇa pratyāśāṁ labhēmahi tannimittaṁ pūrvvakālē likhitāni sarvvavacanānyasmākam upadēśārthamēva lilikhirē|

For every thing that hath before been written for our instruction was written, that by the patience and consolation of the scriptures we might have hope.

5 sahiṣṇutāsāntvanayōrākarō ya īśvaraḥ sa ēvaṁ karōtu yat prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭa iva yuṣmākam ēkajanō'nyajanēna sārddhaṁ manasa aikyam ācarēt;

But the God of patience and of consolation give to you that with impartiality you may think one of another in Jeshu Meshiha,

6 yūyañca sarvva ēkacittā bhūtvā mukhaikēnēvāsmatprabhuyīśukhrīṣṭasya piturīśvarasya guṇān kīrttayēta|

that with one mind and with one mouth you may glorify Aloha, the Father of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

7 aparam īśvarasya mahimnaḥ prakāśārthaṁ khrīṣṭō yathā yuṣmān pratyagr̥hlāt tathā yuṣmākamapyēkō janō'nyajanaṁ pratigr̥hlātu|

Therefore, receive and bear with one another, as also the Meshiha hath received you, to the glory of Aloha.

8 yathā likhitam āstē, atō'haṁ sammukhē tiṣṭhan bhinnadēśanivāsināṁ| stuvaṁstvāṁ parigāsyāmi tava nāmni parēśvara||

But I say that Jeshu Meshiha ministered the circumcision, on behalf of the truth of Aloha, that he might confirm the promise of the fathers,

9 tasya dayālutvācca bhinnajātīyā yad īśvarasya guṇān kīrttayēyustadarthaṁ yīśuḥ khrīṣṭastvakchēdaniyamasya nighnō'bhavad ityahaṁ vadāmi| yathā likhitam āstē, atō'haṁ sammukhē tiṣṭhan bhinnadēśanivāsināṁ| stuvaṁstvāṁ parigāsyāmi tava nāmni parēśvara||

and the Gentiles might glorify Aloha for his mercy that was upon them. As it is written, I will confess thee among the Gentiles, And to thy name will I sing.

10 aparamapi likhitam āstē, hē anyajātayō yūyaṁ samaṁ nandata tajjanaiḥ|

And again he hath said, Be glad, ye Gentiles, with his people.

11 punaśca likhitam āstē, hē sarvvadēśinō yūyaṁ dhanyaṁ brūta parēśvaraṁ| hē tadīyanarā yūyaṁ kurudhvaṁ tatpraśaṁsanaṁ||

And again he hath said, Praise the Lord, all (ye) Gentiles; Let all peoples praise him.

12 apara yīśāyiyō'pi lilēkha, yīśayasya tu yat mūlaṁ tat prakāśiṣyatē tadā| sarvvajātīyanr̥ṇāñca śāsakaḥ samudēṣyati| tatrānyadēśilōkaiśca pratyāśā prakariṣyatē||

And again, Eshaia hath said, There shall be a root of Jeshai, And he who shall arise shall be the chief of the peoples; And upon him will the Gentiles hope.

13 ataēva yūyaṁ pavitrasyātmanaḥ prabhāvād yat sampūrṇāṁ pratyāśāṁ lapsyadhvē tadarthaṁ tatpratyāśājanaka īśvaraḥ pratyayēna yuṣmān śāntyānandābhyāṁ sampūrṇān karōtu|

But the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace, through faith, that you may abound in hope through the power of the Spirit of Holiness.

14 hē bhrātarō yūyaṁ sadbhāvayuktāḥ sarvvaprakārēṇa jñānēna ca sampūrṇāḥ parasparōpadēśē ca tatparā ityahaṁ niścitaṁ jānāmi,

BUT I am persuaded also concerning you, my brethren, that you are also full of good, and filled with all knowledge, and able also to instruct others.

15 tathāpyahaṁ yat pragalbhatarō bhavan yuṣmān prabōdhayāmi tasyaikaṁ kāraṇamidaṁ|

But I have somewhat boldly written to you, my brethren, as that I may put you in remembrance, through the grace which is given to me from Aloha,

16 bhinnajātīyāḥ pavitrēṇātmanā pāvitanaivēdyarūpā bhūtvā yad grāhyā bhavēyustannimittamaham īśvarasya susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ bhinnajātīyānāṁ madhyē yīśukhrīṣṭasya sēvakatvaṁ dānaṁ īśvarāt labdhavānasmi|

to be a minister of Jeshu Meshiha among the Gentiles, and to labour in the gospel of Aloha, that there may be an oblation of the Gentiles, acceptable and holy through the Spirit of Holiness.

17 īśvaraṁ prati yīśukhrīṣṭēna mama ślāghākaraṇasya kāraṇam āstē|

I have, then, exultation in Jeshu Meshiha with Aloha.

18 bhinnadēśina ājñāgrāhiṇaḥ karttuṁ khrīṣṭō vākyēna kriyayā ca, āścaryyalakṣaṇaiścitrakriyābhiḥ pavitrasyātmanaḥ prabhāvēna ca yāni karmmāṇi mayā sādhitavān,

For I dare not speak any thing which the Meshiha hath not done by my hands, unto the obedience of the Gentiles, in word and in deeds,

19 kēvalaṁ tānyēva vinānyasya kasyacit karmmaṇō varṇanāṁ karttuṁ pragalbhō na bhavāmi| tasmāt ā yirūśālama illūrikaṁ yāvat sarvvatra khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādaṁ prācārayaṁ|

with the power of signs and miracles, and with the power of the Spirit of Aloha; as that I have itinerated from Urishlem unto Illyrikum, to fulfil the preaching of Meshiha;

20 anyēna nicitāyāṁ bhittāvahaṁ yanna nicinōmi tannimittaṁ yatra yatra sthānē khrīṣṭasya nāma kadāpi kēnāpi na jñāpitaṁ tatra tatra susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum ahaṁ yatē|

being anxious to preach, not where the name of Meshiha had been called, that I might not build upon another foundation,

21 yādr̥śaṁ likhitam āstē, yai rvārttā tasya na prāptā darśanaṁ taistu lapsyatē| yaiśca naiva śrutaṁ kiñcit bōddhuṁ śakṣyanti tē janāḥ||

but as it is written, They to whom it hath not been told of him, they shall see him; and they who have not heard shall be persuaded.

22 tasmād yuṣmatsamīpagamanād ahaṁ muhurmuhu rnivāritō'bhavaṁ|

On this account I have been hindered many times when I would have come to you.

23 kintvidānīm atra pradēśēṣu mayā na gataṁ sthānaṁ kimapi nāvaśiṣyatē yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gantuṁ bahuvatsarānārabhya māmakīnākāṅkṣā ca vidyata iti hētōḥ

But now, because I have no place in these countries, and have desired for many years to come to you,

24 spāniyādēśagamanakālē'haṁ yuṣmanmadhyēna gacchan yuṣmān ālōkiṣyē, tataḥ paraṁ yuṣmatsambhāṣaṇēna tr̥ptiṁ parilabhya taddēśagamanārthaṁ yuṣmābhi rvisarjayiṣyē, īdr̥śī madīyā pratyāśā vidyatē|

when I go into Ispania, I hope to come and see you; and you shall lead me thitherward, when I shall in some measure have been gladdened with the sight of you.

25 kintu sāmprataṁ pavitralōkānāṁ sēvanāya yirūśālamnagaraṁ vrajāmi|

But now I go to Urishlem to minister to the saints.

26 yatō yirūśālamasthapavitralōkānāṁ madhyē yē daridrā arthaviśrāṇanēna tānupakarttuṁ mākidaniyādēśīyā ākhāyādēśīyāśca lōkā aicchan|

For they in Makedunia and in Akaia have desired that a communication should be made from themselves with the poor and the saints who are at Urishlem.

27 ēṣā tēṣāṁ sadicchā yatastē tēṣām r̥ṇinaḥ santi yatō hētō rbhinnajātīyā yēṣāṁ paramārthasyāṁśinō jātā aihikaviṣayē tēṣāmupakārastaiḥ karttavyaḥ|

They have desired (this), because they also are indebted to them. For if the Gentiles have participated with them in the Spirit, they are indebted to serve them in the flesh.

28 atō mayā tat karmma sādhayitvā tasmin phalē tēbhyaḥ samarpitē yuṣmanmadhyēna spāniyādēśō gamiṣyatē|

This, then, when I have accomplished, and have sealed to them this fruit, I (intend to) pass by you into Ispania.

29 yuṣmatsamīpē mamāgamanasamayē khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādasya pūrṇavarēṇa sambalitaḥ san aham āgamiṣyāmi iti mayā jñāyatē|

And I know that when I come to you, with the plenitude of the blessing of the gospel of Meshiha I (shall) come.

30 hē bhrātr̥gaṇa prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya nāmnā pavitrasyātmānaḥ prēmnā ca vinayē'haṁ

Now I entreat of you, my brethren, by our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and by the love of the Spirit, to labour with me in prayer on my behalf, with Aloha,

31 yihūdādēśasthānām aviśvāsilōkānāṁ karēbhyō yadahaṁ rakṣāṁ labhēya madīyaitēna sēvanakarmmaṇā ca yad yirūśālamasthāḥ pavitralōkāstuṣyēyuḥ,

that I may be delivered from them who believe not in Jihud, and (that) the service which I bear to the saints may be well received,

32 tadarthaṁ yūyaṁ matkr̥ta īśvarāya prārthayamāṇā yatadhvaṁ tēnāham īśvarēcchayā sānandaṁ yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gatvā yuṣmābhiḥ sahitaḥ prāṇān āpyāyituṁ pārayiṣyāmi|

and I may come to you with joy in the will of Aloha, and be rested with you.

33 śāntidāyaka īśvarō yuṣmākaṁ sarvvēṣāṁ saṅgī bhūyāt| iti|

The God of peace be with all of you. Amen.
