Roma 4
1 Nene, Ibrahim uchifi bite nan nya kidowo tibaworu ana se iyang?
What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh?
2 Bari andi Ibrahim wa se nin katwarik kidowo awa yitu nin nimon fofigiri, tutun na nbun Kutellẹ ba.
For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God.
3 Bari iyanghri uliru Kutellẹ na bellin? “Ibrahim na yinni ni liru Kutellẹ inalẹ wa batuzughne mu feu Kutellẹ.”
For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”
4 Nene urika na adi katwa, na idin batuzughe mun nafo ubollu Kutellẹ ba, ina din batuzughe mu nafo ulẹ na min urẹ.
Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as something owed.
5 Nani tutun kitin nlẹ na adin suzu katwẹ ba, ame na yinna ni lẹ nadi nutuuzunu nchaut kiti na lẹ na iyiru Kutellẹ ba, uyinnu sa uyenu me ibata nafo feu Kutellẹ.
But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness.
6 Dauda wa belli nmari di litin nit ulẹ na Kutellẹ din batuzu feu mẹ sa katwa.
Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:
7 A belle “anan nmareri alẹ na alapi mins ina shawa mun, tutun alẹ na ina tursu nani alapi mine.
“Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
8 Unan nmareri unit urika na chikilari ma batuzu alapi me ba.”
Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin.”
9 Nene mọ nmarẹ idin bellu minin kiti nannan bowarẹ sa vat nin nanna salin nbowe wang? Bari tiworo, “uyinnu sa uyenun Ibrahim iwa bataghe mun feu Kutellẹ.”
Is this blessing then pronounced only on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness.
10 Iyizari iwa nin bata? Kube na Ibrahim wa dinin bowarẹ sa nin salin nbo? Na iwa bataghe mun nan nya nbowari ba, iwa bataghe nan nya salin nbo
How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
11 Ibrahim wa seru alama nbowe usoghe utinchara feu Kutellẹ na awadimu adutu sa ubowe, bari anan so uchifin vat n lẹ na iyinna, ko idin nan nya ndirun bowari, inan bata nani feu Kutellẹ.
He received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they might be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be accounted to them.
12 tutun anan yita uchif nannan dak kitin nbowari machas ba, ndu vat kiti nalẹ na idin chin nabunun inyinnu uyenu inchifbite Ibrahim uyinnu sa uyenu me na awadimun nan nya ndirun nbo.
He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.
13 Bari na nan nya sharawari ubellu Kutellẹ wa kulo litin Ibrahime nin nisudume, au ima so anan minu iyii, nan nya nani fiu Kutellẹn iyinnu sa uyenu.
For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he would be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
14 Bari andi alẹ na inuzu, nshara din nan nya nannan serẹ, uyinnu sa uyenu nso hemmari une, tutun ubellu Kutellẹ nnana.
For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect.
15 Bari usharawẹ din dasu nin tinanayi, vat nin nani, kitẹ na ushara dukuba, na udirun ndortun nshara duku wang ba.
For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.
16 Bari nani. libau inyinnu sa uyenuwari, inan so libau nbolu Kutellẹ, bara ubellu me nan yita vat nisudu. Tutun ilẹ isudẹ na imayitu chas kiti nalẹ na iyiru usharawaba, imayitu vat nin na lẹ na idin nuzun yinu sa uyennun Ibrahim
For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.
17 (urika na adi uchifbit vat, nafo na ina idi nya niyertẹ, “meng natifi uchif nisudu gbardang”). Amẹ Ibrahim wadi nbun lẹ na awayinin ninghe, Kutellẹri une, urika na adin nizu ulai nalẹ na ikuzu, akuru ayichila ilẹ imon na idiba imone yita.
As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.” This is in the presence of him whom he believed: God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were.
18 Vat nin yenju ndas, Ibrahim wayinin nin Kutellẹ iwo aba yitu uchif nisudu gbardang, nafo na iwa bellu “Alelẹ ma yitu isudu fẹ.”
Against hope, Abraham in hope believed, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So will your offspring be.”
19 Na nan nya ndiru nagan inyinnu sa uyenuba, Ibrahim wa yau kidowo me kin kulari-awadi kupo nakus akut likuru, tutun kiti kumatin Saraya wadi kiku kubẹ.
Without being weakened in faith, he didn’t consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb.
20 Vat nin nani, bara ubellu Kutellẹ, Ibrahim wa daudau nan nya indirun yinnu sa uyenuba, awana kwii agaghari nan nya iyinnu sa uyenu, nin liru Kutellẹ.
Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God,
21 Awaynin vat imon irika na Kutellẹ bellẹ, adinin nagan usuninin.
and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was also able to perform.
22 Bara nani iwakuru ibatizaghe mun nafo fiu Kutellẹ.
Therefore it also was “credited to him for righteousness.”
23 Nene na iwa su iyertẹ nwọ ibatizaghe mugha usame nimon ichineba,
Now it was not written that it was accounted to him for his sake alone,
24 Vat nin gherik wang, nya narika na ima batuzu, arikẹ na tiyina nin lẹ na a fiya Yisa chikilaribit nan nya kul.
but for our sake also, to whom it will be accounted, who believe in him who raised Yeshua our Lord from the dead,
25 Yisa dana iwa nakpaghe bara alapi ikuru ifiyghe bari akusu ari.
who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
