Romans 1
1 [I], Paul, who serve Christ Jesus, [am writing this letter]. God chose me to be an apostle, and I was appointed by him {he appointed me} in order that [I should proclaim] (the good message/the gospel) that [comes from him].
Pál, Jézus Krisztusnak szolgája, elhívott apostol, kiválasztva Isten evangéliumának hirdetésére,
2 Long before [Jesus came to earth, God] promised [that he would reveal] this good message by means of what his prophets [wrote] in the sacred Scriptures.
amelyet eleve megígért az ő prófétái által a szent írásokban,
3 This good message is [about the one whom we know as] his Son. As to his Son’s physical/human nature, he was born a descendant of [King] David.
az ő Fia felől, aki Dávid utóda volt test szerint,
4 As to his divine nature, it was shown {[God] showed} powerfully that he is (God’s own Son/the man who is also God). [God] showed this by his Holy Spirit causing him to become alive again after he died. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.
de aki a szentség Lelke szerint, a halálból való feltámadása által, Isten hatalmas Fiának bizonyult, a mi Urunk Jézus Krisztus felől,
5 He is the one who appointed me, who did not deserve it, [to be] an apostle. He did that in order that [many] among the non-Jews would honor [him] and would obey him as a result of their believing [my message about him].
aki által kegyelmet és apostolságot kaptunk az ő nevéért, hogy hitre és engedelmességre hívjuk a pogányokat.
6 You [believers] who are living in Rome [city] are included among those whom God has chosen to belong to Jesus Christ.
Ezek közé tartoztok ti is, Jézus Krisztus elhívottai.
7 [I am writing this letter] to all of [you in Rome] whom God loves and whom he has chosen [to become his] people. [I pray that] God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord will [continue to] act kindly toward you and [will continue to] cause you to have [inner] peace.
Mindenkinek, akik Rómában vagytok, Isten szeretteinek, az elhívott szenteknek: Kegyelem néktek és békesség Istentől, a mi Atyánktól, és az Úr Jézus Krisztustól.
8 As I begin [this letter], I thank my God for all you [believers in Rome]. It is because of [what] Jesus Christ [has done for us that] I [am able to do that]. I thank him because your trusting [in Jesus Christ] is something that people all over [the Roman Empire] [HYP] are talking about.
Először is hálát adok az én Istenemnek, a Jézus Krisztus által, mindnyájatokért, hogy a ti hiteteknek az egész világon híre van,
9 God, whom I devotedly serve as I [proclaim to people] the gospel concerning his Son, knows that I tell the truth when I say that I always mention you whenever [DOU] I pray [to God] [HYP].
mert tanúm az Isten, akinek lelkem szerint szolgálok az ő Fiának evangéliumával, hogy imádságomban szüntelenül megemlékezem rólatok,
10 I especially ask God that if he desires [me to visit you], somehow at last I shall be able to do so.
könyörögve, hogy egyszer, Isten akaratából, jó szerencsés út adódna nekem, hogy hozzátok mehessek.
11 [I pray this] because I long to visit you to help you spiritually, in order that you will become stronger [spiritually].
Mert látni kívánlak titeket, hogy valamilyen lelki ajándékot adjak nektek megerősödéstekre,
12 I long to visit you in order that you and I might encourage each other [by means of our sharing with each other] how each of us trusts [in Jesus].
hogy megvigasztalódjunk nálatok egymás hite által, a tiétek, meg az enyém által.
13 My fellow believers, many times I planned to visit you. I certainly want you to know [LIT] that. [But I have not been able to come to you because] I have been hindered {[things] have always prevented me} until the present time. I have wanted to come in order that I might help you to mature spiritually [IDM], as [I have helped people to mature spiritually] in many other non-Jewish groups [HYP].
Nem akarom pedig, atyámfiai, hogy ne tudjátok, hogy sokszor feltettem magamban, hogy elmegyek hozzátok, (de mindeddig megakadályoztattam), hogy közöttetek is nyerjek valami lelki gyümölcsöt, mint más pogány népek között.
14 I feel obliged [to proclaim the gospel to all non-Jewish people], specifically to [people who know] the Greek [language and culture] and to those who do not know it, to people who are educated and to those who are uneducated.
Mind a görögöknek, mind a barbároknak, mind a bölcseknek, mind a tudatlanoknak adósa vagyok.
15 So what I have eagerly desired is that I might proclaim this good message to you who are living in Rome also.
Azért, ami rajtam áll, kész vagyok nektek is, akik Rómában vagytok, az evangéliumot hirdetni.
16 [That leads me to say that] I very confidently proclaim [LIT] the good message [about what Christ has done], because this good message is the powerful [means] that God [uses] to save [from the guilt of their sins] all people who trust [in what Christ has done for them]. Specifically, God first has saved the Jews [who believe the good message], and then he has saved non-Jews.
Mert nem szégyellem a Krisztus evangéliumát, mert Istennek hatalma az, minden hívő üdvösségére, első sorban zsidóknak, de görögöknek is.
17 By means of this good message God reveals how he erases the record of people’s sins (OR, declares people no longer guilty for having sinned); and his doing this is entirely because [IDM] they trust [in Christ. This is confirmed] by what [a prophet long ago] wrote [that God said], “Those (whose record of sin [I] have erased/whom [I] have declared no longer guilty for sin) because they trust [in me] will live [forever].”
Mert Isten igazsága nyilvánul meg abban hitből hitbe, amiképpen meg van írva: „Az igaz ember hitből él“.
18 From [where God rules in] heaven he is making it clear to all [non-Jewish] people who show no respect for God and who do wicked things, that he is angry with them [and that they deserve to be punished] {[that he would punish them]} [MTY]. By means of [their behaving] wickedly, they keep other people [from believing what they know] to be true [about God].
Mert Isten kinyilvánítja haragját a mennyből az emberek minden hitetlensége és hamissága ellen, akik az igazságot hamissággal feltartóztatják.
19 [Everyone] can clearly know what God [is like], because God himself has revealed to everyone [what he is like].
Mert ami Isten felől tudható, az nyilvánvaló előttük, mert Isten nyilvánvalóvá tette számukra.
20 [People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios g126)
Mert ami Istenben láthatatlan, tudniillik az ő örökkévaló hatalma és istensége, a világ teremtése óta alkotásaiból megérthető és látható. Ezért menthetetlenek. (aïdios g126)
21 Although [the non-Jews] knew what God [is like], they did not honor him as God, nor did they thank [him for what he had done]. But instead, they began to think foolish [things about him], and they became unable to understand [MET] [what he wanted them to know].
Mert bár Istent megismerték, mégsem mint Istent dicsőítették, hálát sem adtak neki, hanem okoskodásaikban hiábavalóságokra jutottak, és balgatag szívük elsötétedett.
22 Although they claimed that they were wise, they became foolish,
Magukat bölcsnek vallva, balgává lettek.
23 and they refused to [admit that] God is glorious and will never die. Instead, they made and worshipped idols [that resembled people who] will some day die, and [then they made other idols that resembled] birds and four-footed animals, and [finally] they made idols that resembled reptiles.
Az örökkévaló Isten dicsőségét felcserélték mulandó embereknek, madaraknak, négylábú állatoknak és csúszó-mászó állatoknak képmásával.
24 So God allowed [the non-Jews] do immoral sexual things that they [SYN] strongly desired, things [that their desires were compelling them to do]. As a result, they [began to] dishonor each other’s bodies [by their sexual actions].
Ezért Isten kiszolgáltatta őket szívük kívánságai szerint a tisztátalanságnak, hogy egymás testét megbecstelenítsék.
25 Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn g165)
Mint akik Isten igazságát hazugsággá változtatták, és a teremtett dolgokat tisztelték és szolgálták a Teremtő helyett, aki mindörökké áldott! Ámen. (aiōn g165)
26 So, God allowed [the non-Jews to do] shameful [sexual] things that they [strongly] desired. As a result, many women did not have natural sexual relations [with their husbands] [EUP]. Instead, they were doing sexual actions with other women [EUP].
Ezért Isten kiszolgáltatta őket tisztátalan indulatoknak. Asszonyaik a természet rendjét természetellenesre cserélték fel.
27 Similarly, [many] men stopped having/did not have natural sexual relations with women [EUP]. Instead, they strongly desired to have sexual relations with other men. They committed [homosexual] acts with other men, acts that were shameful. As a result, [God has] punished them [by sicknesses] in their bodies, which is what they deserve [because] they [thought] wrongly [that God would not punish them for doing that].
Hasonlóképen a férfiak is elhagyták az asszonyokkal való természetes érintkezést, egymás iránt gerjedtek fel bujaságukban, férfiak férfiakkal fajtalankodtak. El is vették önmagukban tévelygésük méltó büntetését.
28 Furthermore, because they decided that it was not [worthwhile] to know God, he allowed their own worthless thoughts [to completely control them]. As a result, they began doing [evil] things that [God says that people] should not do.
Ahogyan Istent nem méltatták arra, hogy ismeretükben megtartsák, úgy Isten is kiszolgáltatta őket romlott gondolkodásuknak, hogy alávaló dolgokat cselekedjenek.
29 They strongly desire to do all [kinds of] unrighteous [things]. They strongly desire to do all [kinds of] evil things [to others]. They strongly desire to possess things that [belong to others]. They strongly desire to harm [others] in various ways. [Many non-Jews] are constantly envying [other people. Many] constantly desire to murder [people. Many] constantly desire to cause strife [between people. Many] constantly desire to deceive [others. Many] constantly desire to speak hatefully [about others] (OR, [to speak harmful things about others, things that are not true]). [Many] gossip [about others].
Ezért tele is vannak mindenféle hamissággal, paráznasággal, gonoszsággal, kapzsisággal, rosszasággal, irigységgel, gyilkos indulattal, versengéssel, álnoksággal, rossz erkölccsel.
30 [Many] slander [others. Many] act especially hatefully toward God. [Many] speak or act in an insulting way [toward others. Many] treat others contemptuously. [Many] boast [about themselves to others. Many] invent new ways to do evil things. [Many non-Jewish children] disobey their parents.
Besúgók, rágalmazók, istengyűlölők, dölyfösek, kevélyek, dicsekedők, rosszban mesterkedők, szüleiknek engedetlenek,
31 [Many non-Jews] act in other morally foolish ways. [Many] do not do what they promised [others that they would do. Many] do not [even] love [their own family members. And many] do not act mercifully [toward other people].
balgatagok, összeférhetetlenek, szeretet nélkül valók, engesztelhetetlenek, irgalmatlanok.
32 Although they know that God has declared that those who do such things deserve to be killed, they not only habitually do these [kinds of evil] things, but they also approve of others who habitually do them.
Noha ismerik Isten végzését, hogy akik ilyeneket cselekesznek méltók a halálra, mégis megteszik mindezt, sőt egyet is értenek azokkal, akik ugyancsak így cselekszenek.
