< Romans 1 >

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,
Nne Pauli ntumwa jwa a Yeshu Kilishitu, njemilwe na a Nnungu kubha ntume jwa lunguya Ngani ja Mmbone.
2 which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
Jene Ngani ja Mmboneji, jishinkulajilwa na a Nnungu bhukala, kupitila ashinkulondola bhabho Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo.
3 concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh,
Ngani ja Bhana bhabho, Bhakulungwa bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu, bhabhelekwe shigundu nnukolo lwa a Daudi,
4 who was declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
na Mmbumu ya ukonjelo gwabho bhashinkuagulwa kubha Mwana jwa a Nnungu, kwa kuyuka kwabho bhakaweje, yani a Yeshu Kilishitu Bhakulungwa bhetu.
5 through whom we received grace and apostleship for obedience of faith among all the nations for his name’s sake;
Kupitila kwa bhenebho, uwe tushipegwa nema na utume, nkupinga bhandu bha ilambo yowe twaalongoyanje nkukulupalila na nkukunda lina lyabho kwa ligongo lya ukonjelo gwabho.
6 among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;
Na mmanganyanji nneila peila, nninginji munkumbi gwa bhashemilwenje na a Yeshu Kilishitu, kubha bhandunji bhabho.
7 to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Ngunakunnjandishilanga mmowe nninginji ku Loma, nkupingwangwa na a Nnungu na nshemilwenje mmanganje bha ukonjelo. Ngunakunnjujilanga nema na ulele, kwa Atati a Nnungu na Bhakulungwa bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu.
8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.
Ngunatandubha kwa kwaatendela eja a Nnungu bhangu, kupitila a Yeshu Kilishitu kwa ligongo lyenunji mmowe, pabha ngulupai yenunji inalunguywa nshilambolyo.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,
A Nnungu bhungwatumishila kwa ntima gwangu gowe, nkulunguya Ngani ja Mmbone ja Bhana bhabho, ni bhakong'ondela bhangu shinguti kunkumbushilanga mobha gowe.
10 requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.
Ngunatenda nneyo mobha gowe, nkujuga Nnungu kwangu kuti, a Nnungu bhapingaga bhambe malanga, nyiye kunngwenunji agano mobha gano.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;
Pabha ngunalokolila kwa kaje kummonanga, nimpanganje shiukilo sha mmbumu, nkupinga nshimilikwanje.
12 that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.
Kwa nneyo shitutagane ntima, kila mundu kwa ngulupai jika mwine, ngulupai jenu mmanganyanji, na ngulupai jangu nne.
13 Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you (and was hindered so far), that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.
Ashaalongo ajangunji ngunapinga mmumanyanje kuti, papagwinji nashinkutumbilila kunng'owelanga, ikabheje mpaka nnaino a Nnungu bhashing'ibhilila. Pungupinga na kweneko naapatanje bhandunji bhakwaakulupalilanga a Yeshu Kilishitu, malinga shinaapatilenje mwiilambo ili nngabha ya Bhayaudi.
14 I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.
Njikola ligambo muntima kwa ligongo lya Bhayunani na bhangalinji Bhayunani. Njikola ligambo ku bhakwetenje lunda na bhangalinji lunda.
15 So as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.
Kwa nneyo nne njiengwa kulunguya Ngani ja Mmbone, nkali kungwenunji nninginji ku Loma.
16 For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.
Nne ngakujibhonela oni Ngani ja Mmbone, pabha jenejo, ni mashili ga a Nnungu gapeleshela ntapulo kubhandu bhowe bhaakulupalilanga, kutandubhila ku Bhayaudi na mpaka ku Bhagiliki.
17 For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.”
Pabha Ngani ja Mmbone jinalanguya a Nnungu shibhakuti kwaapanganga bhandunji aki. Lyeneli linatendeka kaje kwa ngulupai, malinga shiishite jandikwa, “Akwete aki shaatame kwa ngulupai.”
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
Kukoposhela kunnungu, a Nnungu bhashilangula nnjimwa jabho ku bhandunji bhakakwaakagulanga a Nnungu, bhaakananga ya kweli kwa itendi yabhonji yangali ya mmbone.
19 because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.
Pabha indu yowe imanyika kuti ya a Nnungu bhaimanyinji, pabha bhayene a Nnungu bhalangwiye indu yabho.
20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. (aïdios g126)
Indu yaishiywe kuumila bhukala gwa panganywa shilambolyo, nnaino inabhoneka nimanyika, yani liengo lyabho na mashili gabho ga pitipiti na Unnungu gwabho, kupinga bhanakolanje sha bheleketa! (aïdios g126)
21 Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.
Nkali bhakaamanyanjeje a Nnungu, bhangaakuyanga na wala kwaatendela eja, malinga shiipinjikwa, ikabheje ng'aniyo yabhonji ishipuganyika, na mitima jabhonji jangali lunda jishikwaabhikanga nnubhindu.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Bhanakwitembanga kuti bhashikolanga lunda, mbena bhangumba.
23 and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things.
Bhaleshilenje kwaatindibhalila a Nnungu bha ukonjelo na bha pitipiti, nikuitindibhalila yanamu ili malinga bhandu bhaawanganga, eu mbuti ijuni, eu bhannyama, na bhaatambalanga pai.
24 Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves;
Kwa lyene ligongolyo, a Nnungu gubhaaleshilenje bhakagulanje ilokoli ya nyata ya mmitima jabhonji, na tendelana indu ya nyata nkulabhalabha, nikwiitokomaya iilu yabhonji.
25 who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Bhanatindiganyanga indu ya kweli ya a Nnungu nkupinga bhakagulanje ya unami. Bhalitindibhalilanga shiumbe, kuleka kwaatindibhalila bhayene Ashipanganya, bhapinjikwa lumbililwa pitipiti! Amina. (aiōn g165)
26 For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.
Kwa nneyo, a Nnungu bhashikwalekanga bhanaishimiyananje nikagulila ilokoli ya nyata. Nkali bhanabhakongwe, bhashilekanga itendi ya shibhelekwe ya shiilu shabhonji, nitenda sha munape.
27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.
Nneyo peyo, na bhanabhalume gubhaleshilenje kwaalokolilanga ashaakongo bhabhonji, nilokolilana ashaayenenji. Bhanabhalume gubhatendilenje indu ya nyata, gubhaishemelenje ukumu ashaayenenji, kwa ligongo lya itendi yabhonji yangali ya mmbone.
28 Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
Malinga shibhakanilenje kubha na a Nnungu nng'aniyo yabhonji yangali ya mmbone, a Nnungu gubhaaleshilenje bhaikagulanje ng'aniyo yabhonji, bhatendanje yangali ya mmbone.
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,
Bhashigumbalilwanga na kila gwangali gwa mmbone, kukwetela, na joloka, na lupimililo, na bhulaga, na mipwai, na unami, na ng'aniyo yangali ya mmbone, na bha lung'wenyi.
30 backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
Kabhili, bhaalambililanga na bhakwaashimanga a Nnungu, na bhakwetenje nngomo, na bhakwetenje mbwinya na kwiipuna, bhaakumbuyanga itendi ya ambi ya nyata, na bhakakwaapilikanishiyanga bhaakwetenje.
31 without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;
Na bhene bhangalinji lunda, na bhakaajalinji malagano, na bhakakwaapinganga ashaalongo ajabhonji, wala bhangalinginji shiya.
32 who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.
Bhalikumumanyanga kuti shalia ja a Nnungu jinaataya kuti, bhandunji bhatendanga nneyo bhanapinjikwanga kuwa. Nkali nneyo, nngabha bhanatendanga genego ashayenenjipe, ikabheje bhene bhatendanga yeneyo bhala bhanakwaalumbililanga.
