Roma 11
1 a belle nani sa Kutelle wa nnari anit me? uwanya uso nani ba bara men wangnkuna Isiraila ri unuzu likura Ibrahim tutun lilem benjamin benjamin.
I ask then, Has God cast off His People? No, indeed. Why, I myself am an Israelite, of the posterity of Abraham and of the tribe of Benjamin.
2 Kutelle wa nnari anit me b, ale na awadi ananyinu nani, sa lyiru imon ille na inyarta wa bellin litin kitin Iliya na awa sau kuhulu kiti Kutelle abara anan Israila?
God has not cast off His People whom He knew beforehand. Or are you ignorant of what Scripture says in speaking of Elijah--how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,
3 Chikilari inna mollusu anit anan mbellu naufe ipucho tibagadife miyari chas nlawa tutun idin piziru nighe.
"Lord, they have put Thy Prophets to death, and have overthrown Thy altars; and, now that I alone remain, they are thirsting for my blood"?
4 Kutellẹ wa tarda awaro: “nna chau litinighe nanilime amui kuzor alle na issa tumuno nin naluum mine kitin baale ba”.
But what did God say to him in reply? "I have reserved for Myself 7,000 men who have never bent the knee to Baal."
5 har nene re nnya ko kusa ufere mboullu Kutellẹ imon nggisin duk.
In the same way also at the present time there has come to be a remnant whom God in His grace has selected.
6 Vat nani andi barai ayii ubolluKutellẹ na bara katari ba andina nani ubollu Kutellẹ. di ubollu ba.
But if it is in His grace that He has selected them, then His choice is no longer determined by human actions. Otherwise grace would be grace no longer.
7 Iyarighari tutungha? imon ule na an Isirale wa piziru iwa se iniba nnan feeru Kuteelẹ wase ngisine ghas.
How then does the matter stand? It stands thus. That which Israel are in earnest pursuit of, they have not obtained; but God's chosen servants have obtained it, and the rest have become hardened.
8 Ud nafo na inyerte wabellin “Kutellẹwa nii nani Ifipnnun me min nyisi na nyeju kiti ba nin atuf ansalin nlanzu uliru udak kitin mon”
And so Scripture says, "God has given them a spirit of drowsiness--eyes to see nothing with and ears to hear nothing with--even until now."
9 Dauda woro nenghe “na kutebul mine sokutaru libarda litala ntirzu a usọ atunu” kitimine.
And David says, "Let their very food become a snare and a trap to them, a stumbling-block and a retribution.
10 Naiyizi mine uwo isirọ bara i wayeje kiti ko kome mine tumun
Let darkness come over their eyes that they may be unable to see, and make Thou their backs continually to stoop."
11 Awa bellin nani “iwa utirzo bara disua idiuwa?” uwa uso nani ba bara nan naudisu mine watii uduchu daa na nan nan nsalin yiru Kutellẹ baraifea nanin ayinasu liyarin.
I ask, however, "Have they stumbled so as to be finally ruined?" No, indeed; but by their lapse salvation has come to the Gentiles in order to arouse the jealousy of the descendants of Israel;
12 Andi uyi naseimon nachara diu mine uwalu mine umon nachara kiti nan ntanni nin malizin nacharaiworo use namon nachara.
and if their lapse is the enriching of the world, and their overthrow the enriching of the Gentiles, will not still greater good follow their restoration?
13 Nene nin indin nliru nanghinu anan ntani kulle meng unan kadura na uda kiti nan ntanni Kutellẹ indin fọfigiri nin katanighe.
But to you Gentiles I say that, since I am an Apostle specially sent to the Gentiles, I take pride in my ministry,
14 mmoti mba nanzu amon nibinai issua. lagann alle na idi amon mine se utuch.
trying whether I can succeed in rousing my own countrymen to jealousy and thus save some of them.
15 An di unna rani alele unare ti tise umuni nati an nye '' Yagari useru mine ba ti uba so ulai ki nan kulle?''
For if their having been cast aside has carried with it the reconciliation of the world, what will their being accepted again be but Life out of death?
16 An di kumat ifarri adi lau na nere iyip ma, an tillin di lau, annere ti langgye ba yitu. pucu tilangye ina.
Now if the firstfruits of the dough are holy, so also is the whole mass; and if the root of a tree is holy, so also are the branches.
17 Iwadin woru i puco ton ti lang kuca, f, kucan zaitu kusho iwa shonfi na nya mine uba koswu nan gyinu mmari tiling tiling kuca zaintu,
And if some of the branches have been pruned away, and you, although you were but a wild olive, have been grafted in among them and have become a sharer with others in the rich sap of the root of the olive tree,
18 yen je uwa fo figiri nin tilan gye. Asa uba fo figiri na fere nin tilang, na fe re ming ti langye ba, ama tilangyere min fi.
beware of glorying over the natural branches. Or if you are so glorying, do not forget that it is not you who uphold the root: the root upholds you.
19 Uma/ uba nin woru, ''Ina n shono men ku nan nye.''
"Branches have been lopped off," you will say, "for the sake of my being grafted in."
20 Kidegen nere/ kiden nere! Bara usalin nni kibinai mine iwa pucu tilangye, nin nani uyisa nan nya yenu fe sa uyenu. Nu uwa ganti liti fe kan ba, lanza fiu.
This is true; yet it was their unbelief that cut them off, and you only stand through your faith.
21 Sasa na Kutelle wa sun tilang ti cine ba fe wang na awa sun fi ba.
Do not be puffed up with pride. Tremble rather--for if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will He spare you.
22 Yenen nene, imon i cine irka na Kutelle na su. Nlong ikot urinjaya Kutenlle wa wunun ale na iwa dui, inlong likot urinjaya Kutelle na dak ati mine uni wa ti ayi a shaeu me, sasa na ni ba, fe wan iwa wernu i finlo. `
Notice therefore God's kindness and God's severity. On those who have fallen His severity has descended, but upon you His kindness has come, provided that you do not cease to respond to that kindness. Otherwise you will be cut off also.
23 Iwasena ituna nan nya salin yinnu ibashonminu nan nya iba shunmunu nann nya. Bara Kutellẹ nwa nya apirun minu nnan nyẹ.
Moreover, if they turn from their unbelief, they too will be grafted in. For God is powerful enough to graft them in again;
24 fe wang iwa kalafi kiti kuchan nzaitu kusho, ko na litino me din nan nya kusho, ida munu fi nin kuchan nzaitun kilari, nafo na idin suzu belle anun na iyiru litinọ mine, ikuru ishominu kuwa.
and if you were cut from that which by nature is a wild olive and contrary to nature were grafted into the good olive tree, how much more certainly will these natural branches be grafted on their own olive tree?
25 Linuana na iwa so lọn ba, nin nimon liyeshi, bari iwa yita nin yinnu nin kpiluzu nati mine; Israila nase ngbas bat nan nya mine, se na inase ukulu nannan tanni Kutellẹ.
For there is a truth, brethren, not revealed hitherto, of which I do not wish to leave you in ignorance, for fear you should attribute superior wisdom to yourselves--the truth, I mean, that partial blindness has fallen upon Israel until the great mass of the Gentiles have come in;
26 Nanere vat nan Israile base utuchu, nafo na ina yerti: “unantuchu ba nuzu nnan nyan Zion; aba kallu udiru kutelle kitin Yakub.
and so all Israel will be saved. As is declared in Scripture, "From Mount Zion a Deliverer will come: He will remove all ungodliness from Jacob;
27 Likawali nigha lolẹ nan ghinu, nba kalu alapi mine.”
and this shall be My Covenant with them; when I have taken away their sins."
28 Nlon likot nbellen nliru Kutellẹ, ina nari ani bara anun, nlon likot bara uferu Kutellẹ, anan suuwari barian ka mine.
In relation to the Good News, the Jews are God's enemies for your sakes; but in relation to God's choice they are dearly loved for the sake of their forefathers.
29 Bara na Kutellẹ wasa akpiliya kibinai mẹ nan nya fillu nin yichilu me ba.
For God does not repent of His free gifts nor of His call;
30 Nafo nin chizune ne na iwadi anan dortu Kutellẹ ba, ina se nkune kune Kutellẹ bara udortu me,
but just as you were formerly disobedient to Him, but now have received mercy at a time when they are disobedient,
31 Nene alẹ Ayahudawe iwa nari udortu Kutellẹ, iwa first nani nkune kune nafo na ina durso minu inung ma nene seru nkune kune.
so now they also have been disobedient at a time when you are receiving mercy; so that to them too there may now be mercy.
32 Kutellẹ na tursu kogha ku nin dirnun dortu me, bara adurọ in nkune kune kitin kogha. (eleēsē g1653)
For God has locked up all in the prison of unbelief, that upon all alike He may have mercy. (eleēsē g1653)
33 Kakama, ncham cham nimon nachara inyiru nin yinnu Ketellẹ! Ghari wasa a pizira nan nya nsharamẹ, Tibau me katin likara inyinnu!
Oh, how inexhaustible are God's resources and God's wisdom and God's knowledge! How impossible it is to search into His decrees or trace His footsteps!
34 “Ghari yiru kibinayi in Chikilarẹ? Sa ghari udon nkpiluzu in nliru me?
"Who has ever known the mind of the Lord, or shared His counsels?"
35 Sa ghari na burun ana Kutellẹ imonimon, sa inan kpilla ina ghe?”
"Who has first given God anything, so as to receive payment in return?"
