Roma 13
1 Na kogha dortu uliru nago, na nton tigo duku sa uyinnu Kutellẹ ba; Kutellẹ ameri unan ni tigo.
Every one should be in the higher authorities; for there is no authority apart from God. The authorities that now exist have been appointed by God.
2 Bara. nani ule na yasa tigo ayasa Kutellẹ, tutun anan kiyasa tigo iba sunani ushara.
Therefore the man who rebels against authority is opposing the divine ordinances; and those who withstand will bring judgment on themselves.
3 Agọ na imon fiuwari ba kiti nanan su nmon kine imon ufiu kiti nnanan sunimon inanzang na aye difi ulanza fiu na nan tigo ba? suu imon meichine ubase liruu kitime.
For rulers are no terror to good deeds, but to evil. Would you be fearless of the ruler’s authority? Do what is good, and you will have his praise.
4 Ame kuching kulelle kitimine inanzang lanza yi, na adin mmizinu liyop. hem naninb. Ame kuchin. Kutellẹ ulena aba tunnu tinana na kiti nlena adiṣu inlmon inanza.
For the ruler is God’s minister appointed for your good. But if you are a wrong-doer, be afraid; he does not carry the sword to no purpose; he is God’s servant, appointed to vengeance upon the guilty.
5 Bara nani ibasuu udurtun nlirun nliru na bara unanu nayii Kutellẹ chas ba har nin lamiri wong.
Wherefore you must needs be in subjection, not only because of fear, but also for conscience sake.
6 Bara nani in bizu nah id ugandu wang. Inun agowe achin Kutellẹ ari alle idin suil ille imone kokome kubi.
This too, is the reason why you pay taxes; because the authorities are ministers of God’s service, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 Nan kọghaku ule imon na adin dortu munu, ini anan mmyen ungandu mmyen mine lazan fiu nslale na ibati ilanza fiu mine, nghantinan anan nun ighanlin nani.
Render to all their dues; taxes to whom taxes, customs to whom customs, respect to whom respect, and homage to whom homage is due.
8 Na Iwa min umon imonimon ba, yinan nin linuana. Ulẹ na ayina nin na lisosin kopome akulo uduka.
Never owe any one anything save the debt of brotherly love; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the Law.
9 Inna woro, “Na iwa nozo nan nawani nanit ba. Na uwa molu unit ba. Na uwa su likiri ba. Na uwa suu ivira ba. “tutun andi imon uduka duku, vat umala nan nyanlẹ ulirẹ: “uba yinnu nin nan kupo nafo litife.”
For the Law which says, Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet, and whatever other commandment there be - is all summed up in this one saying, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
10 Na uyinnu nya uta ulanza unan kupofe ukul ba. Bara nani, uyinnu nso likulun indukari.
Love never wrongs his neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilment of the Law.
11 Bara nani, kubin daduru, kubiko na kogha ma fitu nmoro. Nene utuchu bite nda susut nanghrik ukati. kubi kone na tiwa burun serun nlirẹ.
Carry out these injunctions because you know the crisis that we are in, that now it is high time for you to awake out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than when we first believed.
12 Kitik ndo piit, kiti nan na shanta. Bara nani na tifilin imon nsirti, tishon imon likum nkanang.
The night is far spent; The day is at hand. Let is therefore take off the deeds of darkness, Let us put on the armor of light.
13 Na ti chinu dert, nafo nin lirin, na in nan nya nkpehirzunu sa usọ nadadu ahemhem, na nin halin zina sa nan nya kunanizi kunanza, nin kubun kunanza sa inshina.
Let us live honestly, as in the day, Not in reveling and drunkenness, Not in lust and licentiousness, Not is strife and jealousy;
14 Bara nani tan Chikilari Yisa Kristi, na iwa pun kuna niyizi nadadu kidowo ba.
But clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, And make no provisions for your earthly nature And the gratification of its lusts.
