Roma 9
1 Ndin bellu kidegen nan nya Kirsti, na in bellẹ kinuba, ulamiri nighe in tayi iyizi nba nan nya Nruhu Kutellẹ ulau.
I say the truth in the Messiah, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Spirit,
2 Indi nin liburi lisire kang nin konu in salin shizunu nan nya kibinayi nighe.
That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3 Nafo meng litinighe in yita nin su in ti litini unu in nana kitin kirsti bara nuana ning, likura ning nya kidowo.
For I could wish that myself were accursed from the Messiah for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Inun na idi Israila. Idi nin seru, nin zazunu, nin nisilin, nin liru Kutellẹ, a likawali.
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the worship, and the promises;
5 Inighari nin na chiff nburnu minere Kirsti na dak nin toltinu nan nya kidowo- Kirsti na amerẹ kitenen vat nimon, unan nmari Kutellẹ sa lingan. Usonani. (aiōn g165)
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh the Messiah came, who is over all, YHWH blessed for ever. (aiōn g165)
6 Na uwaso nafo likawali Kutellẹ nso hem. Bara na kogha na adi in Israila kidegen nere kunan Israila.
Not as though the word of YHWH hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Na tutung vat kuwunun Ibrahimari di nonọ me ba. Kiti litin Ishaku timaso likura.
Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 Usọ, nonọ na kidowo na nonọ Kutellẹri ba. Uso nonọ likawali inugherẹ idin batuzani nonọ likure.
That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of YHWH: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
9 Bara ulẹ ulirẹ unalikawali ari: '' Nin ko kubẹ nma dak, nmani Saratu ku gọnọ.''
For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son.
10 Na ulelẹ chas ba, kimalin Rabika wanin nit uwasamme, uchiff bite Ishakuw-
And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;
11 na iwadi isa mara nonọ ba, ana isa ta imoimon i, hine sa inanzang ba, inan woro ukpilizu kibinayi Kutellẹ inbelen nferu me nan so nani, na bara kata kidowo ba, unuzu kitin nlẹ na ana yichila.
(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of YHWH according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth; )
12 Iwa taba ubelinghe, ''Ukune mani ubenẹ tikunẹ.''
It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 Udi nafo na iyerte di, ''Yakub adi kibinayi nin Isuwa inari amẹ.''
As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14 Iyari timabellu? Kutellẹ dini dinongha? Na nani wa yitaba. Bara awa bellin Musa ku au,
What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with YHWH? By no means.
15 “Nma dursu ujinkai kitilẹ na indi nin jinkai, Nkunekune kitilẹ na indi nin nkunekune”.
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 Bara nani, na ule na ana kibinayi ariba, a na ulẹ na asu uchumari ba, bara Kutellẹ ari ulẹ na adurso ujinkai.
So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of YHWH that sheweth mercy.
17 Uliru Kutellẹ w bellin Firauna ku, Bara ma manufẹ rẹ ina fiyafi, innanse indurso likara nighe litife, Lisa nighe nan se upiru kowe nan nya inyẹ.
For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18 Bara nani, a dinij jinkai kitile na ata usu, kitin le na ata usu tutun ataghe gbas.
Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19 Uma belli nenge, ''Iyarin ta udin pizuru anit nin kulapi? Ghari wasa asu umusu nighe?
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20 Kai unit, saka uyenu, fe ghari na uma kpanu Kutellẹ? Tiwin to na ina ke ma bellu unan kewe, ''Iyari ta una keyi nenẹ?''
Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against YHWH? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21 Ani na unan ke na melenghe wasa akoso tiwin ti shife to ake kumeleng kuchine mun, to tutun a ke nkon 'mun nanzang?
Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22 Andi Kutellẹ, dinin su adurso tinanayi me, akuru ati iyene likarame, awunno kubi nin shew kibinayi me, bara anan da wese anan mizunu tinanayi nibinayi mine.
What if YHWH, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23 Bara tinan yinnọ mgbardang nkune kune kibinayime liti nalẹ na inin dinin kune kune, ale nawa achiu bara a ghanti nani.
And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24 umunu arikẹ wang, nya nalẹ na ana yichila, na nan nya nayahudawa chasba, umunu ingisin tilem tileme vat.
Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25 Tutun nafo ubellu me in Hosea: “Nma yichilu anit nin alẹ na iwadi anit nin ba, nin nalẹ na indi kauna, bara na inwadi kauna mine uworsuba.
As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26 Tutun umanin so nenge, kiti ka na iwa yertin na anu anit nighari ba, nene ima yichimunu nọnọ Kutellẹ lai.''
And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living Elohim.
27 Ishaya wa su kuchulu bara nonọn Israila, ''Andi ingbardang in nonọ Israila masin licicin kurawa, ingisinghari mase utuchu.
Isaiah also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28 Bara Chikilari ma su kata nin lirume nan nya iyi ulelẹ vat na nin molu kubiba.
For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will YHWH make upon the earth.
29 Nafo ubellu Ishaya na awa bellin mun. “lndafo na Ugo Kutellẹ wa sun nari ingisin nisudu ba, tiwaso nafo Usodom, tutun tiwa lawu masin Ugomorah
And as Isaiah said before, Except YHWH Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
30 Iyari tiba ku tibellin? Awurmi na iwadi anan fiu Kutellẹ ba, nene iso anan fiu Kutellẹ bara uyinnu sa uyenu.
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 Inun Israila na iwa dofin ushara nin fiu Kutellẹ, na iwa duru igan i. nin ba.
But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Iyang wantin? Bara na iwa pizuru nin yinnu sa uyenuba, iwa piziru nin kata kidowo inani wa tirọ litala intirzu.
Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
33 Nafo na ina yertin, ''yenen in na nonko kutala in tirzu nan nyan Zion a kupara kulapi. Ule na ayinna mun na ama lanzu inchin ba.''
As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
