Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called as an Apostle, separated for the Gospel of God,

Pauro, muranda waJesu Kristu, wakadanwa kuva muapositori, atsaurirwa evhangeri yaMwari,

2 which he had promised beforehand, through his Prophets, in the Holy Scriptures,

(yaakagara avimbisa nevaporofita vake mumagwaro matsvene),

3 about his Son, who was made for him from the offspring of David according to the flesh,

maererano neMwanakomana wake, wakabva kumbeu yaDhavhidhi zvichienderana nenyama,

4 the Son of God, who was predestined in virtue according to the Spirit of sanctification from the resurrection of the dead, our Lord Jesus Christ,

wakatemerwa kuva Mwanakomana waMwari nesimba, maererano neMweya weutsvene, nekumuka kwevakafa, ndiye Jesu Kristu Ishe wedu;

5 through whom we have received grace and Apostleship, for the sake of his name, for the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles,

watakagamuchira naye nyasha nevuapositori kuti kuve kuteerera kwerutendo pakati pevahedheni vese, nekuda kwezita rake,

6 from whom you also have been called by Jesus Christ:

vamuri pakati pavo nemwi, vakadanwa vaJesu Kristu;

7 To all who are at Rome, the beloved of God, called as saints. Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

kune vese vari muRoma, vadikanwi vaMwari, vakadanwa kuva vatsvene: Nyasha kwamuri nerugare rwunobva kuna Mwari Baba vedu naIshe Jesu Kristu.

8 Certainly, I give thanks to my God, through Jesus Christ, first for all of you, because your faith is being announced throughout the entire world.

Kutangawo ndinovonga Mwari wangu nemuna Jesu Kristu pamusoro penyu mese, kuti rutendo rwenyu rwunoparidzirwa panyika yese.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit by the Gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I have kept a remembrance of you

Nokuti Mwari chapupu changu, wandinoshumira pamweya wangu muevhangeri yeMwanakomana wake, kuti handiregi kukurangarirai,

10 always in my prayers, pleading that in some way, at some time, I may have a prosperous journey, within the will of God, to come to you.

panguva dzese muminyengetero yangu ndinokumbira, kuti kana zvichigoneka nechido chaMwari, ndibudirire kuuya kwamuri pakuguma.

11 For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you a certain spiritual grace to strengthen you,

Nokuti ndinoshuva kukuonai, kuti ndikupei chimwe chipo chemweya, kuti musimbiswe,

12 specifically, to be consoled together with you through that which is mutual: your faith and mine.

ndiko kuti, ndinyaradzwe pamwe pakati penyu, nerutendo rweumwe neumwe, zvese rwenyu nerwangu.

13 But I want you to know, brothers, that I have often intended to come to you, (though I have been hindered even to the present time) so that I might obtain some fruit among you also, just as also among the other Gentiles.

Zvino handidi kuti musaziva, hama, kuti kazhinji ndaizvipira kuuya kwamuri (ndokudziviswa kusvikira ikozvino), kuti ndive nechimwe chibereko pakati penyuwo, sepakati pevamwe vahedheniwo.

14 To the Greeks and to the uncivilized, to the wise and to the foolish, I am in debt.

Ndine ngava kuVaGiriki nekuvatorwawo, kuvakachenjera nekune vasina kuchenjerawo;

15 So within me there is a prompting to evangelize to you also who are at Rome.

saizvozvo sezviri mandiri ndakagadzirira kuparidza evhangeri kwamuriwo imwi muri paRoma.

16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel. For it is the power of God unto salvation for all believers, the Jew first, and the Greek.

Nokuti handinyadzisvi neevhangeri yaKristu; nokuti isimba raMwari rinoendesa kuruponeso kune umwe neumwe anotenda, kumuJudha pakutanga, nekumuGirikiwo.

17 For the justice of God is revealed within it, by faith unto faith, just as it was written: “For the just one lives by faith.”

Nokuti kururama kwaMwari kunoratidzwa mairi kubva parutendo kusvika parutendo; sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: Asi wakarurama achararama nerutendo.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven over every impiety and injustice among those men who fend off the truth of God with injustice.

Nokuti kutsamwa kwaMwari kunoratidzwa kubva kudenga pamusoro pekusada Mwari kwese nekusarurama kwevanhu vanodzivisa chokwadi nekusarurama;

19 For what is known about God is manifest in them. For God has manifested it to them.

nokuti izvo zvinozikanwa pamusoro paMwari zviri pachena pakati pavo; nokuti Mwari wakazviratidza kwavari.

20 For unseen things about him have been made conspicuous, since the creation of the world, being understood by the things that were made; likewise his everlasting virtue and divinity, so much so that they have no excuse. (aïdios g126)

Nokuti zvisingaonekwi zvake, kubva pakusikwa kwenyika, zvinonzwisisika pazvinhu zvakaitwa, zvinooneswa pachena, simba rake rekusingaperi pamwe neuMwari hwake, kuti vasava nemanzvengero; (aïdios g126)

21 For although they had known God, they did not glorify God, nor give thanks. Instead, they became weakened in their thoughts, and their foolish heart was obscured.

nokuti vakati vaziva Mwari, havana kumurumbidza saMwari kana kuvonga, asi vakava vasina maturo mumirangariro yavo, nemoyo wavo usinganzwisisi wakaitwa mutema.

22 For, while proclaiming themselves to be wise, they became foolish.

Vachizvipupurira kuva vakachenjera vakava mapenzi,

23 And they exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of flying things, and of four-legged beasts, and of serpents.

uye vakashandurira kubwinya kwaMwari asingafi kumufananidzo wechifananidzo chemunhu anofa nekushiri nekuzvine makumbo mana nekuzvinokambaira.

24 For this reason, God handed them over to the desires of their own heart for impurity, so that they afflicted their own bodies with indignities among themselves.

Naizvozvowo Mwari wakavapa kutsvina kubudikidza nekuchiva kwemoyo yavo, kuti vazvidze miviri yavo pakati pavo;

25 And they exchanged the truth of God for a lie. And they worshipped and served the creature, rather than the Creator, who is blessed for all eternity. Amen. (aiōn g165)

avo vakashandurira chokwadi chaMwari kunhema, uye vakanamata nekushumira chisikwa kupfuura Musiki, iye anorumbidzwa nekusingaperi. Ameni. (aiōn g165)

26 Because of this, God handed them over to shameful passions. For example, their females have exchanged the natural use of the body for a use which is against nature.

Nekuda kweizvozvo Mwari wakavapa kukuchiva kunonyadzisa; nokuti kunyange vanhukadzi vavo vakashandura basa rechisikirwo rive rinopesana nechisikirwo;

27 And similarly, the males also, abandoning the natural use of females, have burned in their desires for one another: males doing with males what is disgraceful, and receiving within themselves the recompense that necessarily results from their error.

uye saizvozvowo vanhurume vakasiya basa rechisikirwo kumunhukadzi, vakapiswa nekuchivana kwavo, vanhurume nevanhurume vachiita zvinonyadzisa vachigamuchira mukati mavo muripo wakafanira kurasika kwavo.

28 And since they did not prove to have God by knowledge, God handed them over to a morally depraved way of thinking, so that they might do those things which are not fitting:

Uye zvavakaona zvisina kufanira kugara naMwari muruzivo, Mwari wakavapa kumurangariro wakaraswa, kuti vaite zvinhu zvisakafanira;

29 having been completely filled with all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice, wickedness; full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, spite, gossiping;

vakazadzwa nekusarurama kwese, ufeve, kuipa, ruchiva, unhubu, kuzara negodo, umhondi, gakava, kunyengera, utsotsi, vanoita makuhwa,

30 slanderous, hateful toward God, abusive, arrogant, self-exalting, devisers of evil, disobedient to parents,

vacheri, vavengi vaMwari, vazvidzi, vadadi, vanozvikudza, vavambi vezvakaipa, vasingateereri vabereki,

31 foolish, disorderly; without affection, without fidelity, without mercy.

vasinganzwisisi, vaputsi vesungano, vane utsinye, vasingaregereri, vasina tsitsi,

32 And these, though they had known the justice of God, did not understand that those who act in such a manner are deserving of death, and not only those who do these things, but also those who consent to what is done.

avo vanoti vachiziva murairo wekururama kwaMwari, kuti vanoita zvakadai vakafanirwa nerufu, havaiti izvo chete, asiwo vanotenderana nevanozviita.
