Romans 13
1 Let every soul be subject to higher powers: for there is no power but from God: and those that are, are ordained of God.
Xoossaa shene gidonnashin maati imettonna gishonne ha77i de7iya shuumatikka Xoossaa shenen shuumettida gisho asi ubbay deriya ayseyssatas kiitettanaw bessees.
2 Therefore he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God. And they that resist, purchase to themselves damnation.
Hessa gisho, maatara de7eyssatas kiitettonna ixxiya oonikka Xoossaa kiitaa ixxees. Kiitettonna ixxiya oonikka ba bolla pirddaa ehees.
3 For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same.
Ayseyssati iita ootheyssatappe attin lo77o ootheyssata yashshokona. Ayseyssatas yayyonna agganaw koyay? Yaakko lo77o ootha; entti nena galatana.
4 For he is God’s minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God’s minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil.
Entti new lo77obaa oothanaw shuumettida Xoossaa aylle. Shin neeni iitabaa oothiko, entti iitabaa oothidayssa seeriya gisho iyaw yayya. Entti iita ootheyssata seeridi, Xoossaa hanquwa qonccisiya Xoossaa aylle.
5 Wherefore be subject of necessity, not only for wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.
Hessa gisho, Xoossaa hanquwa xalaalas gidonnashin, hintte kahay markkattiya gisho deriya ayseyssatas kiitettanaw bessees.
6 For therefore also you pay tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this purpose.
Hintte giira giireykka hessassa. Deriya ayseyssati he oosuwa oothey, entti Xoossaa aylleta gidida gishossa.
7 Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour.
Issuwas issuwas besseyssa immite. Giira giiranaw besseyssas giirite; qaraxa qanxanaw besseyssas qaraxa qanxite; yayyanaw besseyssas yayyite; bonchchoy besseyssa bonchchite.
8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another. For he that loveth his neighbour, hath fulfilled the law.
Issoy issuwara siiqetite. Siiqo acoppe attin hintte bolla hara acoy dooppo. Ase siiqiya oonikka higgey geyssa polis.
9 For Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness: Thou shalt not covet: and if there be any other commandment, it is comprised in this word, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
“Laammofa; wodhoppa; kaysotoppa; amottofa” giya kiitaynne hara kiita ubbay, “Ase ne huu7eda dosa” giya kiitan qashettis.
10 The love of our neighbour worketh no evil. Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law.
Ase siiqiya oonikka iya bolla iitabaa oothenna. Hessa gisho, ase siiqeyssi higge kiitaa polis.
11 And that knowing the season; that it is now the hour for us to rise from sleep. For now our salvation is nearer than when we believed.
Dhiskkofe hintte barkkiya wodey ha77i gideyssa akeekidi hessa oothite. Nu attana wodey koyro nu ammanida wodiyappe ha77i nuukko matis.
12 The night is passed, and the day is at hand. Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and put on the armour of light.
Dhuma wodey aadhdhanaw hanees; wonttay matis. Hiza, nuuni dhuma ooso aggidi poo7o ola miishe oykkoos.
13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day: not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and impurities, not in contention and envy:
Ane gallas poo7on de7iya asada maaran de7oos. Mathoninne laymatethara gayttiya dumma dumma tuna oosotan, palamaninne qanaaten gidoppo.
14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh in its concupiscences.
Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosa kandduwa ma77ite; hintte nagaranchcho asatethay ba amuwaa polana mela iyaw qoppofite.
