Romans 9
1 I tell the truth in Christ. I am not lying, my conscience testifying with me in the Holy Spirit
ཨཧཾ ཀཱཉྩིད྄ ཀལྤིཏཱཾ ཀཐཱཾ ན ཀཐཡཱམི, ཁྲཱིཥྚསྱ སཱཀྵཱཏ྄ སཏྱམེཝ བྲཝཱིམི པཝིཏྲསྱཱཏྨནཿ སཱཀྵཱན྄ མདཱིཡཾ མན ཨེཏཏ྄ སཱཀྵྱཾ དདཱཏི།
2 that I have great sorrow and unceasing pain in my heart.
མམཱནྟརཏིཤཡདུཿཁཾ ནིརནྟརཾ ཁེདཤྩ
3 For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brothers’ sake, my relatives according to the flesh
ཏསྨཱད྄ ཨཧཾ སྭཛཱཏཱིཡབྷྲཱཏྲྀཎཱཾ ནིམིཏྟཱཏ྄ སྭཡཾ ཁྲཱིཥྚཱཙྪཱཔཱཀྲཱནྟོ བྷཝིཏུམ྄ ཨཻཙྪམ྄།
4 who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises;
ཡཏསྟ ཨིསྲཱཡེལསྱ ཝཾཤཱ ཨཔི ཙ དཏྟཀཔུཏྲཏྭཾ ཏེཛོ ནིཡམོ ཝྱཝསྠཱདཱནཾ མནྡིརེ བྷཛནཾ པྲཏིཛྙཱཿ པིཏྲྀཔུརུཥགཎཤྩཻཏེཥུ སཪྻྭེཥུ ཏེཥཱམ྄ ཨདྷིཀཱརོ྅སྟི།
5 of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
ཏཏ྄ ཀེཝལཾ ནཧི ཀིནྟུ སཪྻྭཱདྷྱཀྵཿ སཪྻྭདཱ སཙྩིདཱནནྡ ཨཱིཤྭརོ ཡཿ ཁྲཱིཥྚཿ སོ྅པི ཤཱརཱིརིཀསམྦནྡྷེན ཏེཥཱཾ ཝཾཤསམྦྷཝཿ། (aiōn g165)
6 But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel.
ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ ཝཱཀྱཾ ཝིཕལཾ ཛཱཏམ྄ ཨིཏི ནཧི ཡཏྐཱརཎཱད྄ ཨིསྲཱཡེལོ ཝཾཤེ ཡེ ཛཱཏཱསྟེ སཪྻྭེ ཝསྟུཏ ཨིསྲཱཡེལཱིཡཱ ན བྷཝནྟི།
7 Neither, because they are Abraham’s offspring, are they all children. But, “your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac.”
ཨཔརམ྄ ཨིབྲཱཧཱིམོ ཝཾཤེ ཛཱཏཱ ཨཔི སཪྻྭེ ཏསྱཻཝ སནྟཱནཱ ན བྷཝནྟི ཀིནྟུ ཨིསྷཱཀོ ནཱམྣཱ ཏཝ ཝཾཤོ ཝིཁྱཱཏོ བྷཝིཥྱཏི།
8 That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as heirs.
ཨརྠཱཏ྄ ཤཱརཱིརིཀསཾསརྒཱཏ྄ ཛཱཏཱཿ སནྟཱནཱ ཡཱཝནྟསྟཱཝནྟ ཨེཝེཤྭརསྱ སནྟཱནཱ ན བྷཝནྟི ཀིནྟུ པྲཏིཤྲཝཎཱད྄ ཡེ ཛཱཡནྟེ ཏཨེཝེཤྭརཝཾཤོ གཎྱཏེ།
9 For this is a word of promise: “At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.”
ཡཏསྟཏྤྲཏིཤྲུཏེ ཪྻཱཀྱམེཏཏ྄, ཨེཏཱདྲྀཤེ སམཡེ ྅ཧཾ པུནརཱགམིཥྱཱམི ཏཏྤཱུཪྻྭཾ སཱརཱཡཱཿ པུཏྲ ཨེཀོ ཛནིཥྱཏེ།
10 Not only so, but Rebekah also conceived by one, by our father Isaac.
ཨཔརམཔི ཝདཱམི སྭམནོ྅བྷིལཱཥཏ ཨཱིཤྭརེཎ ཡནྣིརཱུཔིཏཾ ཏཏ྄ ཀརྨྨཏོ ནཧི ཀིནྟྭཱཧྭཡིཏུ རྫཱཏམེཏད྄ ཡཐཱ སིདྡྷྱཏི
11 For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,
ཏདརྠཾ རིབྐཱནཱམིཀཡཱ ཡོཥིཏཱ ཛནཻཀསྨཱད྄ ཨརྠཱད྄ ཨསྨཱཀམ྄ ཨིསྷཱཀཿ པཱུཪྻྭཔུརུཥཱད྄ གརྦྷེ དྷྲྀཏེ ཏསྱཱཿ སནྟཱནཡོཿ པྲསཝཱཏ྄ པཱུཪྻྭཾ ཀིཉྩ ཏཡོཿ ཤུབྷཱཤུབྷཀརྨྨཎཿ ཀརཎཱཏ྄ པཱུཪྻྭཾ
12 it was said to her, “The elder will serve the younger.”
ཏཱཾ པྲཏཱིདཾ ཝཱཀྱམ྄ ཨུཀྟཾ, ཛྱེཥྛཿ ཀནིཥྛཾ སེཝིཥྱཏེ,
13 Even as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
ཡཐཱ ལིཁིཏམ྄ ཨཱསྟེ, ཏཐཱཔྱེཥཱཝི ན པྲཱིཏྭཱ ཡཱཀཱུབི པྲཱིཏཝཱན྄ ཨཧཾ།
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? May it never be!
ཏརྷི ཝཡཾ ཀིཾ བྲཱུམཿ? ཨཱིཤྭརཿ ཀིམ྄ ཨནྱཱཡཀཱརཱི? ཏཐཱ ན བྷཝཏུ།
15 For he said to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”
ཡཏཿ ས སྭཡཾ མཱུསཱམ྄ ཨཝདཏ྄; ཨཧཾ ཡསྨིན྄ ཨནུགྲཧཾ ཙིཀཱིརྵཱམི ཏམེཝཱནུགྲྀཧླཱམི, ཡཉྩ དཡིཏུམ྄ ཨིཙྪཱམི ཏམེཝ དཡེ།
16 So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy.
ཨཏཨེཝེཙྪཏཱ ཡཏམཱནེན ཝཱ མཱནཝེན ཏནྣ སཱདྷྱཏེ དཡཱཀཱརིཎེཤྭརེཎཻཝ སཱདྷྱཏེ།
17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”
ཕིརཽཎི ཤཱསྟྲེ ལིཁཏི, ཨཧཾ ཏྭདྡྭཱརཱ མཏྤརཱཀྲམཾ དརྴཡིཏུཾ སཪྻྭཔྲྀཐིཝྱཱཾ ནིཛནཱམ པྲཀཱཤཡིཏུཉྩ ཏྭཱཾ སྠཱཔིཏཝཱན྄།
18 So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.
ཨཏཿ ས ཡམ྄ ཨནུགྲཧཱིཏུམ྄ ཨིཙྪཏི ཏམེཝཱནུགྲྀཧླཱཏི, ཡཉྩ ནིགྲཧཱིཏུམ྄ ཨིཙྪཏི ཏཾ ནིགྲྀཧླཱཏི།
19 You will say then to me, “Why does he still find fault? For who withstands his will?”
ཡདི ཝདསི ཏརྷི ས དོཥཾ ཀུཏོ གྲྀཧླཱཏི? ཏདཱིཡེཙྪཱཡཱཿ པྲཏིབནྡྷཀཏྭཾ ཀརྟྟཾ ཀསྱ སཱམརྠྱཾ ཝིདྱཏེ?
20 But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, “Why did you make me like this?”
ཧེ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱ པྲཏིཔཀྵ མརྟྱ ཏྭཾ ཀཿ? ཨེཏཱདྲྀཤཾ མཱཾ ཀུཏཿ སྲྀཥྚཝཱན྄? ཨིཏི ཀཐཱཾ སྲྀཥྚཝསྟུ སྲཥྚྲེ ཀིཾ ཀཐཡིཥྱཏི?
21 Or hasn’t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?
ཨེཀསྨཱན྄ མྲྀཏྤིཎྜཱད྄ ཨུཏྐྲྀཥྚཱཔཀྲྀཥྚཽ དྭིཝིདྷཽ ཀལཤཽ ཀརྟྟུཾ ཀིཾ ཀུལཱལསྱ སཱམརྠྱཾ ནཱསྟི?
22 What if God, willing to show his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,
ཨཱིཤྭརཿ ཀོཔཾ པྲཀཱཤཡིཏུཾ ནིཛཤཀྟིཾ ཛྙཱཔཡིཏུཉྩེཙྪན྄ ཡདི ཝིནཱཤསྱ ཡོགྱཱནི ཀྲོདྷབྷཱཛནཱནི པྲཏི བཧུཀཱལཾ དཱིརྒྷསཧིཥྞུཏཱམ྄ ཨཱཤྲཡཏི;
23 and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory—
ཨཔརཉྩ ཝིབྷཝཔྲཱཔྟྱརྠཾ པཱུཪྻྭཾ ནིཡུཀྟཱནྱནུགྲཧཔཱཏྲཱཎི པྲཏི ནིཛཝིབྷཝསྱ བཱཧུལྱཾ པྲཀཱཤཡིཏུཾ ཀེཝལཡིཧཱུདིནཱཾ ནཧི བྷིནྣདེཤིནཱམཔི མདྷྱཱད྄
24 us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?
ཨསྨཱནིཝ ཏཱནྱཱཧྭཡཏི ཏཏྲ ཏཝ ཀིཾ?
25 As he says also in Hosea, “I will call them ‘my people,’ which were not my people; and her ‘beloved,’ who was not beloved.”
ཧོཤེཡགྲནྠེ ཡཐཱ ལིཁིཏམ྄ ཨཱསྟེ, ཡོ ལོཀོ མམ ནཱསཱིཏ྄ ཏཾ ཝདིཥྱཱམི མདཱིཡཀཾ། ཡཱ ཛཱཏི རྨེ྅པྲིཡཱ ཙཱསཱིཏ྄ ཏཱཾ ཝདིཥྱཱམྱཧཾ པྲིཡཱཾ།
26 “It will be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”
ཡཱུཡཾ མདཱིཡལོཀཱ ན ཡཏྲེཏི ཝཱཀྱམཽཙྱཏ། ཨམརེཤསྱ སནྟཱནཱ ཨིཏི ཁྱཱསྱནྟི ཏཏྲ ཏེ།
27 Isaiah cries concerning Israel, “If the number of the children of Israel are as the sand of the sea, it is the remnant who will be saved;
ཨིསྲཱཡེལཱིཡལོཀེཥུ ཡིཤཱཡིཡོ྅པི ཝཱཙམེཏཱཾ པྲཱཙཱརཡཏ྄, ཨིསྲཱཡེལཱིཡཝཾཤཱནཱཾ ཡཱ སཾཁྱཱ སཱ ཏུ ནིཤྩིཏཾ། སམུདྲསིཀཏཱསཾཁྱཱསམཱནཱ ཡདི ཛཱཡཏེ། ཏཐཱཔི ཀེཝལཾ ལོཀཻརལྤཻསྟྲཱཎཾ ཝྲཛིཥྱཏེ།
28 for he will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth.”
ཡཏོ ནྱཱཡེན སྭཾ ཀརྨྨ པརེཤཿ སཱདྷཡིཥྱཏི། དེཤེ སཨེཝ སཾཀྵེཔཱནྣིཛཾ ཀརྨྨ ཀརིཥྱཏི།
29 As Isaiah has said before, “Unless the Lord of Armies had left us a seed, we would have become like Sodom, and would have been made like Gomorrah.”
ཡིཤཱཡིཡོ྅པརམཔི ཀཐཡཱམཱས, སཻནྱཱདྷྱཀྵཔརེཤེན ཙེཏ྄ ཀིཉྩིནྣོདཤིཥྱཏ། ཏདཱ ཝཡཾ སིདོམེཝཱབྷཝིཥྱཱམ ཝིནིཤྩིཏཾ། ཡདྭཱ ཝཡམ྄ ཨམོརཱཡཱ ཨགམིཥྱཱམ ཏུལྱཏཱཾ།
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;
ཏརྷི ཝཡཾ ཀིཾ ཝཀྵྱཱམཿ? ཨིཏརདེཤཱིཡཱ ལོཀཱ ཨཔི པུཎྱཱརྠམ྄ ཨཡཏམཱནཱ ཝིཤྭཱསེན པུཎྱམ྄ ཨལབྷནྟ;
31 but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn’t arrive at the law of righteousness.
ཀིནྟྭིསྲཱཡེལློཀཱ ཝྱཝསྠཱཔཱལནེན པུཎྱཱརྠཾ ཡཏམཱནཱསྟན྄ ནཱལབྷནྟ།
32 Why? Because they didn’t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,
ཏསྱ ཀིཾ ཀཱརཎཾ? ཏེ ཝིཤྭཱསེན ནཧི ཀིནྟུ ཝྱཝསྠཱཡཱཿ ཀྲིཡཡཱ ཙེཥྚིཏྭཱ ཏསྨིན྄ སྑལནཛནཀེ པཱཥཱཎེ པཱདསྑལནཾ པྲཱཔྟཱཿ།
33 even as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and a rock of offense; and no one who believes in him will be disappointed.”
ལིཁིཏཾ ཡཱདྲྀཤམ྄ ཨཱསྟེ, པཤྱ པཱདསྑལཱརྠཾ ཧི སཱིཡོནི པྲསྟརནྟཐཱ། བཱདྷཱཀཱརཉྩ པཱཥཱཎཾ པརིསྠཱཔིཏཝཱནཧམ྄། ཝིཤྭསིཥྱཏི ཡསྟཏྲ ས ཛནོ ན ཏྲཔིཥྱཏེ།
