Roma 15

1 Nene arik alẹ na ti dinin nakara ti tizu ayi asheu nin na lẹ n. .. kayiri, ana tiwa ni atibite ulanzun nmang ba.

We, the strong, ought to take on our own shoulders the weaknesses of those who are not strong, and not merely to please ourselves.

2 Na ko uyemẹ bite poa unan kupome liburi nan nya nimon ile na idi ichine, unan taghe akuno.

Let each of us please his neighbour for his neighbour’s good, to help in the building up of his character.

3 Bara amẹ Kirsti wang na awani litime ulanzu nmang ba: unin so nafo na ina yertin.'' Tizogo na le na iwa zoguzo minu na diyu litining''.

Even the Christ did not please himself! On the contrary, as Scripture says of him — ‘The reproaches of those who were reproaching thee fell upon me.’

4 Bara vat nimon irika na iwa yertu, iwa yertu inin bara udursuzu kiti bitari, nworu nan nya ikune kunebit tinan se likara nibinayi nin liru Kutellẹ tinanse uyinnu mun

Whatever was written in the Scriptures in days gone by was written for our instruction, so that, through patient endurance, and through the encouragement drawn from the Scriptures, we might hold fast to our hope.

5 Nene imoneti Kutellẹ Kibinayi kisheu nin likara kibinayẹ yinin minu use nibinayi nirumẹ vat nafo usun Kirsti Yisa,

And may God, the giver of this patience and this encouragement, grant you to be united in sympathy in Christ,

6 bara inan so minu vat mine nin kibinayi kirum inan su liru Kutellẹ uchifin Chikilari bit Yisa Kirsti nin liwoi lirum.

so that with one heart and one voice you may praise the God and Father of Jesus Christ, our Lord.

7 Uso nani yinnan nin natiminẹ, nafo namẹ Kirsti naserumunu nan nya liru Kutellẹ.

Therefore always receive one another as friends, just as the Christ himself received us, to the glory of God.

8 Meng woro inati Yisa ku aso ku, hin na lẹ na ina bassuni ijah inyisunu kidegen Kutellẹ, bara anan kulo likawali iwani achifmine,

For I tell you that Christ, in vindication of God’s truthfulness, has become a minister of the Covenant of Circumcision, so that he may fulfil the promises made to our ancestors,

9 bara awurmi nan su liru Kutellẹ bai insheu mẹ. Imone di nafo na ina yerti, ''Meng masu lirufe nan nya Nawurmi inkuru in inti avu liru lisafe''

and that the Gentiles also may praise God for his mercy. As Scripture says — ‘Therefore will I make acknowledgment to thee among the Gentiles and sing in honour of thy Name.’

10 Tutun iworo, '' sun liburi libo, anung Awurmi, ligowe nan na nit mẹ.''

And again it says — ‘Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with God’s People.’

11 Nene tutun, '' sun liru Chikilarẹ, vat mine Awurmi: na anit vat suliru mẹ.''

And yet again — ‘Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and let all Peoples sing his praises.’

12 Tutun Ishaya na bellin, '' Litinọ Jesse ma yituku, ameh na amafitu asu tigo kitene na Wurmi amere Awurmi ma yinnu ninghe.''

Again, Isaiah says — ‘There shall be a Scion of the house of Jesse, One who is to arise to rule the Gentiles; on him shall the Gentiles rest their hopes.’

13 Na Kutellẹ likara nibinayi kulo minu nin nayi abo Lisosin limang bara uyinnu, inan kuno nan nya nagang nibinayi, nin likara Infip mi Lau.

May God, who inspires our hope, grant you perfect happiness and peace in your faith, till you are filled with this hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

14 Meng litinighe nkuru inyinna bara anughe, nanani, bara tutun anighe atimine ise ukulu nan nya inchine, ikulọnin yiru vat, tutun ise ughantinu nati.

I am persuaded, my Brothers — yes, I Paul, with regard to you — that you are yourselves full of kindness, furnished with all Christian learning, and well able to give advice to one another.

15 Idimunu niyerti ilelẹ nan nya likara kibinayi nimon imon gbardan kitimine na ayidi inlizin munu tutun, bara ufillu indadiu nighe kiti Kutellẹ.

But in parts of this letter I have expressed myself somewhat boldly — by way of refreshing your memories —

16 Inan so kuchin Kirsti Yisa ulẹ na inatu udu kiti Nawurmi, inakpai nafo unan katwa kalau nlirun tuchu Kutellẹ, bara imon infillu Nawurmi se useru, inin so imon nkusu na Infip mi Lauwẹ masu katwamun.

because of the charge with which God has entrusted me, that I should be a minister of Christ Jesus to go to the Gentiles — that I should act as a priest of God’s Good News, so that the offering up of the Gentiles may be an acceptable sacrifice, consecrated by the Holy Spirit.

17 Ufofigiri nighe nso nin Kirsti Yisa kusari vat nimon ilẹ na idi in Kutellẹ.

It is, then, through my union with Christ Jesus that I have a proud confidence in my work for God.

18 Bara na wasa in belle ko imon irum ba andi na ilẹ na Kirsti na kulo nan nya nin bara uyinnu nibinayi Nawurmi, nan nya iliru nighe nin kata kidowo nighe.

For I will not dare to speak of anything but what Christ has done through me to win the obedience of the Gentiles —

19 nin likara nalamu a imon ilẹ na ikatin likara inyinnu nit usirne, nin likaran Infip mi Lau, inan se uyirun Urshalima, inin kilin vat udu Illyricum, ise indo ni lirun kirsti ku vat.

by my words and actions, through the power displayed in signs and marvels, and through the power of the Holy Spirit. And so, starting from Jerusalem and its neighbourhood, and going as far as Illyria, I have told in full the Good News of the Christ;

20 Nan nya nani, usu kibinayi nighe di ibellu anit uliru Kutellẹ, na niti nanga na iyiru Kirsti ku nin Lisameba, bara uwa tinu kata kitika na umon mal chizunu useuku.

yet always with the ambition to tell the Good News where Christ’s name had not previously been heard, so as to avoid building upon another man’s foundations.

21 Udi nafo nan nya niyertẹ, ''Alẹ na uliru umang me nsa diru niti mineba nan yeneghe, ale na isa lanzaba yinni.''

But as Scripture says — ‘They to whom he had never been proclaimed shall see; and they who have never heard shall understand!’

22 Abi gbardang ina quantizing udak kitiminẹ.

That is why I have so often been prevented from coming to you.

23 Nene tutun na nkuru ndumun kiti kusari kone ba, tutun inin dimun kibinayi nwo indak kitimine nya nakus alelẹ na akatẹ.

But now there are no further openings for me in these parts, and I have for several years been longing to come to you whenever I may be going to Spain.

24 To nene vat kubiko na ndo Spain, imayitu nin su inyenefi andi in din katu, ukuru utuyi libauni, andi inma kpillu na iyita inmal

For my hope is to visit you on my journey, and then to be sent on my way by you, after I have first partly satisfied myself by seeing something of you.

25 lanzu nmang lisosin ninfi kokube bàt. Nene in ma du u Urshalima indi su anit anan nibinayi ni lau kata.

Just now, however, I am on my way to Jerusalem, to take help to Christ’s People there.

26 Bara imon ichine ari wa di anan Macedoniya nin Achaiya inun su anan indiru kayiri nan nya na nit alau mine alẹ na idin nya Urshalima imon inbunu.

For Macedonia and Greece have been glad to make a collection for the poor among Christ’s People at Jerusalem.

27 Eh, uwa dinani imon ichine nibinayi, tutun nanere iwadi anan dortu inremine. Bara andi Awurme wa kosu imon ilau mine, to iwa dortu nani ure in woru ikosu imon inyii ligowẹ.

Yes, they were glad to do so; and indeed it is a duty which they owe to them. For the Gentile converts who have shared their spiritual blessings are in duty bound to minister to them in the things of this world.

28 Asa Kutellẹ nbuni insu kata kane gegeme, uliru nlai ulelẹ nduru kitimine, nma dak kitife in Spain.

When I have settled this matter, and have secured to the poor at Jerusalem the enjoyment of these benefits, I shall go, by way of you, to Spain.

29 Inyiru nenge asa in da kitife inma dak nan nya nkulu nmarin Kirsti.

And I know that, when I come to you, it will be with a full measure of blessing from Christ.

30 indi ni 'unu shawara linana, nan nya lisa in Chikilari bite Yisa Kirsti, nin su kibinayi Nfip Kutellẹ, bara ibuni likum nan nya inlira kiti Kutellẹ bara mewe.

I beg you, then, Brothers, by Jesus Christ, our Lord, and by the love inspired by the Spirit, to join me in earnest prayer to God on my behalf.

31 Sun ilelẹ meng nan se utuchu kiti na lẹ na inari ulanzun inlirẹ in Yahudiya inan se tutun kata nighe in Urshalima nan se useru kiti nannan fiu Kutellẹ.

Pray that I may be rescued from those in Judea who reject the Faith, and that the help which I am taking to Jerusalem may prove acceptable to Christ’s People;

32 Bara in nan da kitimine nan nya nayi abo libo Kutellẹ, nani tutun meng nan ghinu tise ushinu

so that, God willing, I may be able to come to you with a joyful heart, and enjoy some rest among you.

33 Na Kutellẹ lisosin limang yita nan ghinu vat. Usonani.

May God, the giver of peace, be with you all. Amen.
