< Romans 1 >

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, separated unto the glad-message of God—
Susura ia mia au, Paulus. Lamatualain noꞌe nala au fo dadꞌi Yesus Kristus dedꞌenun. Ana soꞌu au dadꞌi Yesus Kristus atahori dedꞌenun fo uu dui-bꞌengga Eni Hara-lii Malolen sudꞌiꞌ sia bee-bꞌee.
2 Which he promised beforehand, through his prophets, in holy scriptures—
Dalahulun, Lamatualain nafadꞌe neu mana ola-ola nara fo suraꞌ soꞌal Hara-lii Maloleꞌ naa, sia Susura Meumaren. Sia Susura naa, Lamatuaꞌ helu-fuli nae haitua Anan, Yesus, fo nema dadꞌi atahori. Ia naa, Hehelu-fufulin naa dadꞌi ena, huu Yesus nema dadꞌi atahori mia mane Daud tititi-nononosin ena.
3 Concerning his Son, —who came to be of the seed of David, according to flesh,
4 Who was distinguished as the Son of God—by power, according to a Holy Spirit, through means of a resurrection of the dead, —Jesus Christ our Lord;
Te Lamatualain natudꞌu bukti nae, Yesus Kristus naa, Eni Anan boe. Huu Yesus Dula-dalen, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ meumareꞌ onaꞌ Lamatualain. Ma Lamatuaꞌ pake koasan de nafefela baliꞌ Yesus mia mamaten. Naa de, hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae Lamatualain Anan, naeni Yesus, hita Lamatuan.
5 Through whom we have received favour and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, in behalf of his name,
Yesus natudꞌu rala malolen neu au, huu Ana tengga nala au dadꞌi dedꞌenun fo uu dui-bꞌengga hehelu-fufulin sia bee-bꞌee. Huu Ana nau atahori nda Yahudi ra sa o, ramahere E boe ma rasodꞌa tungga hihii-nanaun. Au o nau fo atahori mia basa nusaꞌ ra, ramahere Kristus ma rasodꞌa tungga hihii-nanaun.
6 Among whom are, ye also, called of Jesus Christ:
Hei mana sia Roma ra o, onaꞌ naa boe. Hei ima mia nusaꞌ hetar sia mamanaꞌ hetar. Yesus Kristus noꞌe nala hei nae, “Ima leo! Ima dadꞌi Au atahori nggara!”
7 Unto all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints, favour unto you, and peace, from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.
Naa de au haitua susura fee nggi sia Roma, ma fee nggi nesenenedꞌaꞌ ae, Lamatualain sue-lai nggi. Ana o noꞌe fo ama dadꞌi Eni atahorin mana rasodꞌa meumareꞌ. Au hule-oꞌe fo Lamatualain, hita Aman, no Yesus Kristus, hita Lamatuan, ratudꞌu rala malole nara neu nggi ma fee nggi misodꞌa no mole-dꞌame.
8 First, indeed, I give thanks unto my God, through Jesus Christ, concerning you all, because your faith is being announced throughout the whole world.
Au mulai suraꞌ susura ngga ia, no oꞌe makasi nae-nae neu Lamatualain, huu Yesus Kristus ue-tao sia rala mara. Au o oꞌe makasi boe, huu atahori mana leo sia mana parenda Roma ra nusa nara, ara ola-olaꞌ soꞌal hei nemehere mara neu Yesus.
9 For God is, my witness, —unto whom I am rendering divine service in my spirit, in the glad message of his Son, —how incessantly, I am making mention of you
Au hule-oꞌe nda namaꞌetu sa fee nggi. Tebꞌe! Lamatuaꞌ bubꞌuluꞌ nae, saa fo au olaꞌ ia, tebꞌe. Ana o bubꞌuluꞌ au manggate tao ues, fo dui-bꞌengga Anan Hara-lii Malolen.
10 At all times in my prayers, —making supplication—if, by some means, even now, at any time, I may have a way opened, in the will of God, to come unto you;
Mete ma au hule-oꞌe na, au oꞌe taꞌo ia: “Lamatuaꞌ, au nda itaꞌ ae dꞌalan taꞌo bee sa boe. Te mete ma tungga Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun, na, soi dalaꞌ fo au uu ita nonoo nggara sia Roma.”
11 For I am longing to see you, that I may impart some spiritual gift unto you, to the end ye may be established, —
Au hule-oꞌe taꞌo naa, huu au hii-nau ae ita nggi, fo bꞌanggi fee nggi koasa mia Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen, fo ama dadꞌi mii Lamatuaꞌ atahorin mana maꞌatata mahereꞌ.
12 That is to say—there may be a mutual encouragement among you, each by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
Au masud ngga taꞌo ia: mete ma au dadꞌi uma leo o nggi, au ae tao manggatee rala mara, fo nemehere mara boe manggatee. Ma au nau fo hei o tao manggatetee rala ngga boe.
13 I do not wish however that ye should be ignorant, brethren, that, many times, have I purposed to come unto you, but have been hindered, until the present, —in order that, some fruit, I might have among you also, even as among the other nations,
Toronoo susue nggara e! Au nau fo ama bubꞌuluꞌ mae, au ae eti seꞌu nggi sia Roma lao hetar ena. Te losa faiꞌ ia au nda feꞌe eti sa boe. De mete ma dadꞌi eti, au hule-huleꞌ fo atahori hetar feꞌe ramahere rahereꞌ neu Kristus, onaꞌ sia mamanaꞌ laen ra boe. No taꞌo naa, au ue-tatao ngga naꞌena buna-bꞌoa maloleꞌ.
14 Both to Greeks and to Barbarians, both to wise and to unwise, a debtor, I am:
Mae taꞌo bee o, au musi dui-bꞌengga Lamatuaꞌ Hara-lii Malolen neu atahori mana olaꞌ dedꞌea Yunani do, atahori diintiu mana olaꞌ dedꞌea laen do, atahori moko do, anak do, sakolaꞌ do, nda sakolaꞌ sa. Au musi dui-bꞌengga Lamatuaꞌ Hara-lii Malolen neu basa atahori. Naa de au sadꞌia ala ena ae eti seꞌu nggi sia Roma.
15 Thus, the eagerness on my part—unto you also who are in Rome, to announce the joyful message.
16 For I am not ashamed of the joyful message; for it is God’s power unto salvation, to every one that believeth, both to Jew [first] and to Greek;
Au nda mae mbei-mbei sa boe, soꞌal Lamatuaꞌ Yesus Hara-lii Malolen. Te mete ma atahori namahere neu Lamatualain, Hara-liiꞌ naa naꞌena koasa mia E fo fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori naa, sala-kilun. Atahori Yahudi ra bubꞌuluꞌ raꞌahuluꞌ dalaꞌ ia ra, dei de nusaꞌ laen ra.
17 For, a righteousness of God, is therein revealed, —by faith unto faith: even as it is written—But, he that is righteous, by faith, shall live.
Hara-liiꞌ naa o natudꞌu Lamatuaꞌ dꞌalan fo tao natetu atahori masalaꞌ ra. Basa naa ra bisa dadꞌi, sadꞌi atahori ramahere neu E, ma ramahere rakandooꞌ a. Huu nenesuraꞌ sia Lamatuaꞌ Susura Meumaren oi, “Atahori musi ramahere neu Lamatualain dei, dei fo ara feꞌe malolole ro E. Huu mete ma rasodꞌa ramahere neu E, dei fo ara feꞌe hambu masodꞌa ndoo-tetuꞌ ena.”
18 For there is being revealed an anger of God from heaven—against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who, the truth, in unrighteousness, do hold down; —
Te Lamatualain nafadꞌe basa taꞌo ia: hambu atahori nda nau taoafiꞌ neu E sa. Ma hambu ruma tao dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Ma Lamatuaꞌ nda simbo tatao-nonoꞌin nara naa sa. Atahori ia ra rahine ndoo-tetuꞌ a sia rala nara ena. Onaꞌ naa o, ara akaꞌ tao rakandooꞌ a dꞌala-dꞌala nda matetuꞌ ra sa. Ara nda nau simbo ndoo-tetuꞌ a sa ma ara akaꞌ kokoe-nanasi atahori, losa basa se nda ritaꞌ rae bee ndoo-tetuꞌ sa ena. Naa de Lamatuaꞌ nae naꞌondaꞌ huku-dꞌokiꞌ neu se mia lalai nema.
19 Inasmuch as, what may be known of God, is manifest among them, for, God, unto them, hath made it manifest, —
20 For, the unseen things of him, from a world’s creation, by the things made, being perceived, are clearly seen, even his eternal power and divinity, —to the end they should be without excuse; (aïdios g126)
Atahori ia ra nda raꞌena totoꞌu-nonoet fo rasalaꞌe ao nara sa, huu dalaꞌ mana tao atahori bisa bubꞌuluꞌ soꞌal Lamatualain naa, manggareloꞌ ena. Te Mesaꞌ ne mana natudꞌu naa! Au masud ngga taꞌo ia: eniꞌ a mia Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ lalai no raefafoꞌ losa leleꞌ ia, mete ma atahori rae rahine soꞌal Lamatuaꞌ, no koasan nda mana mamaꞌetuꞌ sa, na bisa! Mae Lamatuaꞌ nda nenenitaꞌ sa o, te hita atahori feꞌe tahine E mia saa fo Ana taoꞌ ra. Naa de au ae, atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra nda raꞌena totoꞌu-nonoet fo rasalaꞌe ao nara sa ena rae, “Au nda uhine saa-saa soꞌal Lamatualain sa.” (aïdios g126)
21 Inasmuch as, having come to know God, not, as God, did they glorify him, or give him thanks, but were made fruitless in their reasonings, and darkened was their undiscerning heart,
Dadꞌi mae rahine Lamatuaꞌ, te nda nau rataa E rae, “Lamatuaꞌ naa, hita Lamatualain na!” Ara o nda nau roꞌe makasi mbali E sa boe. Boe ma dudꞌuꞌa nara liuali, losa nda rahine saa-saa fo matetuꞌ a sa ena. Ara nda ritaꞌ rae taꞌo bee sa de ara ander-ander mataꞌ-mataꞌ, soꞌal Lamatuaꞌ. Ma rala nara maꞌahatu.
22 Professing to be wise, they were made foolish,
Ara esa-esaꞌ olaꞌ no koaot rae, “Au ia, atahori mana nahine dalaꞌ naeꞌ!” Mae ara duꞌa raꞌo naa o, te matetun, nggoa nara onaꞌ amba e.
23 And, exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God, for the likeness of an image of a corruptible man, and of birds and fourfooted beasts and reptiles:
Boe ma ara nda beꞌutee neu Lamatualain manaseliꞌ a sa, huu ara rae, “Hai nda parlu Lamatuaꞌ mataꞌ naa sa!” Te ara mulai beꞌutee neu paton mataꞌ-mataꞌ, mana onaꞌ atahori. Ma ara o beꞌutee neu paton mana onaꞌ mbuiꞌ, onaꞌ banda laen, ma mana onaꞌ mengge ra boe. No taꞌo naa, ara timba hendi Lamatuaꞌ fo nda mana mateꞌ a sa, de nggati no sudꞌiꞌ a saa mana bisa mateꞌ ra!
24 Wherefore God gave them up in the covetings of their hearts unto impurity, so as to be dishonouring their bodies among them, —
Naa de Lamatuaꞌ hela se taꞌo naa ena, fo hela se tao tunggaꞌ a hihii nara. Ana hela se sudꞌiꞌ a tao tungga dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ mata-mataꞌ mana naꞌoka sia rala nara. Losa nda raꞌena mamaet sa ena. Boe ma ara tao-taoꞌ a manggenggeoꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ neu ao nara, ma tao onaꞌ naa neu atahori laen ao nara boe.
25 Who, indeed, exchanged away the truth of God for the falsehood, and rendered worship and service unto the creature rather than unto the Creator, —who is blessed unto the ages. Amen! (aiōn g165)
Ara rahine nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ soꞌal Lamatualain sia rala nara ena, te ara nda nau taoafiꞌ sa. Dudꞌuꞌa nara rambalulutu ena, ma ara dudꞌuꞌa rae, “Malole lenaꞌ, ata tao mataꞌ-mataꞌ, fo rambalulutu, te nda hambu nggenggeroꞌ saa sa boe!” Ara beꞌutee neu sudꞌiꞌ a saa fo Lamatuaꞌ taoꞌ ra, te nda nau beꞌutee neu Lamatuaꞌ mana tao basa sudꞌiꞌ a saa naa ra sa! Ara tao ao nara onaꞌ atahori mamahereꞌ re, tao-tao te hokoꞌ, nda maisiꞌ saa sa boe! Huu matetun, hita atahori musi koa-kio fee hadꞌa-hormat neu Lamatualain nekendoꞌ a! Naa, dei fo nandaa! (aiōn g165)
26 For this cause, God gave them up unto dishonourable passions; for, even their females, exchanged away the natural use into that which is against nature, —
Huu deꞌulaka nara, naa de Lamatuaꞌ hela se, fo ara tao-taoꞌ a manggenggeoꞌ, tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau nara. Ara akaꞌ hohongge mataꞌ-mataꞌ, nda mae rahine sa. Inaꞌ ra nda nau sungguꞌ ro sao nara sa, ara hiiꞌ a saa, mana nda nandaa no hadꞌat sa. Huu inaꞌ ra sungguꞌ ro inaꞌ ra!
27 In like manner also, even the males, leaving the natural use of the female, flamed out in their eager desire one for another, males with males, the indecency, effecting, —and, the necessary recompence of their error, within themselves, duly receiving; —
Touꞌ ra o onaꞌ naa boe! Nda hii sungguꞌ ro sao nara sa, te sungguꞌ roꞌ a touꞌ ra! Nda mae rahine sa boe! Naa de ara hambu huhuku-dodꞌokiꞌ nandaa no tataon nara! Huu ara lao raꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ mia dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a ena.
28 And, even as they did not approve to be holding, God, in acknowledgment, God gave them up unto a disapproved mind to be doing the things that are not becoming,
Ara duꞌa rae, “Malole lenaꞌ, ata afiꞌ nenepaꞌa-siiꞌ to Lamatuaꞌ,” Naa de Lamatuaꞌ hela se reuꞌ ena, de ara sudꞌiꞌ a tao tungga hihii-nanau nara! Dadꞌi ara duꞌa akaꞌ deꞌulakaꞌ ra! Boe ma tao-taoꞌ a dꞌala-dꞌala nda matetuꞌ ra sa!
29 Filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, baseness, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil disposition,
Masodꞌa nara sofeꞌ ro deꞌulakaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Ara nda rahine tao maloleꞌ ra sa, te rahine taoꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ. Ara hii-nau leli. Ara rambedꞌaꞌ ralaꞌ. Ara hiiꞌ a horombala. Ara risa atahori. Ara akaꞌ ratofa-raauꞌ. Ara peko-lelekoꞌ. Ara Lakaese. Ara rendi-rendiꞌ a dedꞌea lenaꞌ.
30 Whisperers, detractors, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, vain boasters, inventors of vices, unto parents unyielding,
Ara raꞌamuti atahori naran. Ara mburu-oeꞌ ro Lamatuaꞌ. Ara onaꞌ nda nenenenoriꞌ sa. Ara hiiꞌ a raloe-radꞌae atahori. Ara hiiꞌ a koa-boꞌu ao nara. Ara hiiꞌ a sangga dudꞌuꞌa deꞌulakaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Ara hiiꞌ a labꞌan atahori lasiꞌ ra.
31 Without discernment, regardless of covenants, without natural affection, unmerciful: —
Ara nda ritaꞌ rae saa fo matetuꞌ sa. Ara ralena langga neu sira hehelu-fufuli nara, losa atahori nda ramahere se sa ena. Ara nda sue rahine atahori sa. Ara nda raꞌena susue-lalaiꞌ mbei sa boe neu atahori.
32 Who, indeed, having acknowledged the righteous sentence of God, —that, they who such things as these do practise, are worthy of death, not only, the same things, are doing, but are even delighting together with them who are practising [them].
Ara rahine Lamatualain hohoro-lalanen mana oi, atahori mana tao deꞌulakaꞌ mataꞌ naa ra, randaa hambu hukun mates. Mae rahine hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa o, te ara feꞌe tao deꞌulakaꞌ nda mbei-mbeiꞌ a sa. Nda akaꞌ a naa sa, ara o akaꞌ dunggu-mbau atahori, fo ara o tungga tao salaꞌ onaꞌ naa boe. Naa seli tebꞌe!
