Romans 10

1 Brethren! the delight of my own heart and my supplication God-ward in their behalf, are for salvation;

O ry longo, ty salalan-troko naho ty halaliko aman’ Añahare ty am’ Israele, le t’ie ho rombaheñe.

2 For I bear them witness that they have, a zeal for God, —but not according to correct knowledge;

Ataliliko t’ie maringatse ho aman’ Añahare, fe tsy an-kilala;

3 For, not knowing God’s righteousness and, their own, seeking to establish, unto the righteousness of God, have they not submitted;

ie tsy nahafoniñe ty hamarentanen’ Añahare, te mone nipay ty hañoreñañe ty a’ iareo, ie tsy niambane ami’ty havantañan’ Añahare.

4 For Christ is an end of law, for righteousness, unto every one that believeth.

I Norizañey ro firefea’ i Hake, hañavantañe ze hene mpiato.

5 For, Moses, writeth that—as touching the righteousness that is by law, The man that hath done [it], shall live thereby;

Nabeja’ i Mosè ty havañonañe mifototse amy Hake, te: Hitakatse haveloñe ama’e t’indaty mañorike aze.

6 Whereas, the righteousness by faith, thus speaketh—Do not say in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? That is, to bring, Christ, down,

Mbore manao ty hoe ty havantañañe mifototse am-patokisañe: Ko manao ty hoe añ’arofo ao: Ia ty hionjoñe mb’ andindìm-b’eo (hampizotso i Norizañey).

7 Or, Who shall descend into the abyss? That is, to bring up, Christ, from among the dead; (Abyssos g12)

ke: Ia ty hizotso mb’an-tsikeokeok’ao? (hampitroatse i Norizañey an-kavilasy). (Abyssos g12)

8 But what saith it? Near thee, is the declaration, In thy mouth and in thy heart, —that is, the declaration of the faith, which we proclaim: —

Aa inom-barè ty enta’e? Marine azo i tsaray, am-palie’o ao vaho añ’arofo’o ao, Ie i tsaram-patokisañe taroñe’aiy,

9 That, if thou shalt confess the declaration with thy mouth—That Jesus is, Lord, and shalt believe with thy hear—That, God, raised him from among the dead, thou shalt be saved; —

t’ie mitaroñe i Talè Iesoà am-palie, vaho iatoa’o an-troke ao te vinañon’ Añahare amo havilasio, le ho rombahen-drehe.

10 For, in heart, it is to be believed unto righteousness, and, by mouth, it is to be confessed unto salvation.

Toe añ’arofo ao ty atokisa’ ondaty hanjoa’e havantañañe, vaho am-palie ty hitaroña’e, hitendreha’e rombake.

11 For the scripture saith—No one that resteth faith thereupon, shall be put to shame?

Hoe i Sokitse Masiñey, Tsy ho salatse ze miato ama’e.

12 For there is no distinction—of Jew or Greek, —for, the same [Lord], is Lord of all, being rich unto all who call upon him;

Tsy eo ty mampiambake ty Jiosy ami’ty Grika; raike ty Talè’ iabikey; matarike amo hene mikanjy azeo.

13 For, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved: —

fa Hene ho rombaheñe ze mikanjy ty tahina’ i Talè.

14 How, then, shall men call upon one in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in one of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear, without one to proclaim?

Akore ty hahakanjia’ iareo ty tsy natokisa’ iareo? akore ty hahatokisa’ iareo ty tsy nijanjiñañe? vaho akore ty hahajanjiña’ iareo te tsy amam-pitaroñe?

15 And how shall they proclaim, except they be sent? Even as it is written—How beautiful the feet of them that bring glad tidings of good things!

Akore ty hitaroña’ iareo te tsy niraheñe? Pinatetse ao ty hoe: Hoke! ty hafanjàka o fandiam-pinday talili-soan-draha soao!

16 But, not all, have become obedient unto the glad tidings; —for, Isaiah, saith—Lord! who believed what we have heard?

Fe tsy hene nañaoñe i talili-soay, fa hoe t’Isaia: O Talè, ia ty niantoke i entam-bola’aiy?

17 Hence, our faith, cometh by something heard, and, that which is heard, through a declaration of Christ.

Aa le am-pijanjiñañe ty fatokisañe, le an-tsaontsi’ i Norizañeiy ty fijanjiñañe.

18 But I say: Have they not heard? Yea indeed, —into all the earth, hath gone forth their sound, and, unto the ends of the inhabited world, their declarations.

Fa hoe raho: ke t’ie tsy nahajanjiñe? Hete! Fa nanitsike ty tane toy ty fiarañanaña’ iareo, naho pak’añ’olo’ ty voatse toy ty saontsi’ iareo.

19 But I say: Hath, Israel, not come to know? First, Moses, saith—I, will provoke you to jealousy on account of a no-nation, on account of an undiscerning nation, will I make you very angry.

Le hoe raho: Hera tsy nifohi’ Israele? Hoe heike t’i Mosè: Hampikirañeko anahareo ty tsy fifelehañe, ty fifeheañe tsy mahilala ro hampibosehako anahareo

20 Isaiah, however, waxeth daring, and saith, —I have been found by them who after me were not seeking, manifest have I become unto them who for me were not enquiring;

Hoe t’Isaia am-pahavaniañe: Nizoe’ o tsy nipay ahio raho, Naho nitojo am’ondaty tsy nañontane ahio.

21 Whereas, regarding Israel, he saith—All day long, have I stretched forth my hands unto a people unyielding and contradicting.

Fe hoe re ty am’ Israele: Lomoñandro raho nañitsi-tañañe am’ ondaty manjehatse naho mitangingiñeo.
