Rome 1
1 Ma sel Paul, mwet kulansap lun Christ Jesus, ac sie mwet sap su God El sulela ac pangon in fahkak Pweng Wo lal.
From Paul, a slave of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for a gospel of God,
2 Pweng Wo se inge God El tuh wulela kac in kas lun mwet palu lal in pacl loeloes somla, oana ke simla in Ma Simusla Mutal.
which through his prophets he promised beforetime, in holy writings;
3 Pweng se inge ma ke Wen natul, Leum lasr Jesus Christ. Ke el moul in mwet, el isusla sie sin fwilin tulik natul David,
this gospel is concerning his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of David’s posterity in respect of his bodily nature,
4 ac ke el moul in luman God, akkalemyeyuk ke ku lulap lah el Wen nutin God ke akmoulyeyukyak el liki misa.
but was by his resurrection from the dead instated as Son of God, with power, in respect of his spirit of holiness.
5 God El ase lungkulang se inge tuh nga in sie mwet sap inen Christ, ac tuh nga in pwanma mutanfahl nukewa nu ke moul in lulalfongi ac akos.
It is through him, even Jesus Christ our Lord, that I received grace and apostleship to promote obedience to the faith among all the Gentiles, for his name’s sake;
6 Na kowos su muta in acn Rome, kowos wi pac oaoala yurin mwet inge, mweyen God El pangon kowos tuh kowos in mwet lun Jesus Christ.
among whom you also are called to be Jesus Christ’s.
7 Ke ma inge nga sim nu suwos nukewa in acn Rome. God El lungse kowos ac El pangon kowos tuh kowos in mwet lal: Lela God Papa tumasr ac Leum Jesus Christ in asot lungkulang ac misla nu suwos.
To all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints. May God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, bless you, and give you peace.
8 Ma se meet, nga kulo nu sin God luk keiwos nukewa inen Jesus Christ, mweyen mwet faclu nufon elos lohng ke lulalfongi lowos.
First I thank my God, through Jesus Christ, for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout all the world.
9 God El mwet loh luk lah ma nga fahk uh pwayena — God se su nga orekma nu se ke insiuk nufon ke nga luti Pweng Wo ke Wen natul. God El etu lah nga esam kowos
God is my witness, to whom I render holy service in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I am ever making mention of you in my prayers,
10 pacl nukewa ke nga pre. Nga siyuk tuh, fin ou lungse lun God, El fah oru tuh nga in ku in fahsrot nu yuruwos ke pacl na sa.
always entreating him that now at length, if such be his will, the way may be made clear for me to come to you.
11 Mweyen nga kena liye kowos, tuh nga in akkeye kowos ke mwe akinsewowo lun ngun.
For I am longing so to see you, in order to impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established;
12 Kalmen ma nga fahk uh pa kut kewa fah akasrui — lulalfongi lowos ac kasreyu, ac lulalfongi luk ac fah kasrekowos.
that is, that I with you may be encouraged by you, each of us by the other’s faith, yours and mine.
13 Mwet wiuk in lulalfongi, nga ke kowos in etu lah pacl puspis nga akoo in fahsrot nu yuruwos, tusruktu pacl nukewa oasr na ma se ikolyu ngan tia orala. Nga kena tuh nga in ku in kifasla kutu inmasrlowos, oapana ke nga oru inmasrlon mwet in mutunfacl saya.
I want you to know, brothers, that many a time I have planned to come to you - though until now I have been hindered - so as to have some harvest-fruit among you also, even as I have among the rest of the Gentiles.
14 Nga enenu na in kasru mwet nukewa: mwet ma muta in kalem oayapa mwet srakna muta in lohsr; nu sin mwet etauk, ac nu sin mwet nikin.
To Greeks and to barbarians, to the cultured and to the uncultured, I have a debt to discharge.
15 Pa oru nga arulana ke fahkak Pweng Wo nu suwos pac su muta Rome.
So much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
16 Arulana yohk yukinyen Wosasu sik; tuh pa inge inkanek in molela na ku lun God nu selos nukewa su lulalfongi — nu sin mwet Jew meet, ac oayapa nu sin mwet sayen mwet Jew.
FOR I AM PROUD OF THE GOSPEL. IT IS GOD’S SAVING POWER FOR EVERY ONE WHO BELIEVES. FOR THE JEW FIRST, AND ALSO FOR THE GENTILE.
17 Tuh Wosasu uh akkalemye ma God El oru in aksuwosyela mwet uh ye mutal: pa ke lulalfongi mukena, mutawauk nu ke safla. Oana Ma Simusla uh fahk, “El su aksuwosyeyuk ye mutun God ke lulalfongi fah moul.”
FOR IN IT IS BEING REVEALED A RIGHTEOUSNESS WHICH PROCEEDS FROM GOD, FROM FAITH UNTO FAITH; AS IT IS WRITTEN.
18 Kasrkusrak lun God akkalemyeyuk inkusrao me, lain ma koluk ac ma sufal nukewa lun mwet, mweyen ouiya koluk lalos lohsrala ma pwaye in tia eteyuk.
For God’s wrath is ever being revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who smother the truth by their unrighteousness.
19 God El kaelos, mweyen ma mwet uh ku in etu ke God kalem na selos, mweyen God sifacna El oru in kalem selos.
This is so because that which may be known of God is manifest among them; for God has made it manifest to them.
20 Finne tia ku in liyeyuk ku lun God su kawil ac elah mutal lal, a oe ke mutaweyen orekla faclu God El akkalemye ma inge ke ma El orala. Ouinge elos tia ku in oru kutena kas in taltal ke ma koluk lalos. (aïdios g126)
For ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, even his everlasting power and divinity, has been clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made. So they have no excuse. (aïdios g126)
21 Elos etu God, tusruktu elos tia akfulatyal oana ma fal elos in oru, ac elos tia pac sang kulo nu sel. A nunak lalos wangin sripa, ac lalfon, ac lohsrlana.
For although they knew God, yet they did not glorify him as God, nor give him thanks; but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless minds were darkened.
22 Elos fahk mu elos lalmwetmet, tusruktu elos lalfon.
While they professed to be wise, they became fools,
23 Elos tia alu nu sin God su moul ma pahtpat, a elos alu nu sin ma lumweyukla nu ke luman mwet, ku won, ku kosro, ku ma orakrak.
and exchanged the majesty of the imperishable God for an idol, graven in the likeness of perishable man, or of birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.
24 Ke sripen ouiya fohkfok lalos, God El lela elos in oru na lungse lalos, ac nunak fohkfok lalos kololos in oru mwe mwekin yurin sie sin sie.
So God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their own bodies;
25 Elos forla liki ma pwaye ke God nu ke ma kikiap. Elos alu ac kulansupu ma God El orala, ac tia alu nu sel su orala ma uh, su fal in kaksakinyuk nwe tok! Amen. (aiōn g165)
because they exchanged the truth of God for an untruth, and worshiped and served the creature, rather than the Creator who is blessed forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
26 Ke sripen elos oru ma inge, God El fuhlelosla nu ke lung lun ikwa su mwe akmwekin yoklana. Finne mutan uh, wanginla kena lalos nu ke mukul, a elos oru ma na sufal inmasrlolos sifacna.
That is why God has given them up to passions of dishonor; for on the one hand their women actually changed the natural function of sex into that which is against nature;
27 In lumah sacna, mukul uh oayapa wanginla kena lalos nu ke mutan, ac arulana upa nunak in kosro lalos yurin mukul nu sin mukul. Elos oru mwe akmwekin yurin sie sin sie, ouinge elos sifacna eis in elos kaiyuk ma fal nu selos ke sripen orekma koluk lalos.
and on the other hand their men likewise abandoned the natural use of women, and were ablaze with passion for one another; men with men practising shameless acts and receiving in their own person that recompense of their wrong-doing which necessarily followed.
28 Ke sripen mwet uh srangesr in nunku ke etauk pwaye ke God, na pa El fuhlelana elos in sifacna oru nunak sakirik lalos, pwanang elos oru ma na sufal elos in oru.
And just as they refused to continue to retain God in their knowledge, so did God cast them out to an outcast mind, to do those things which were indecent.
29 Elos sessesla ke kain koluk nukewa: nunak koluk, rapku, ac wenteisr; elos arulana sok, akmas, anwuk, kutasrik ac sulallal. Elos mwet lesrik
They were overflowing with every kind of iniquity, depravity, greed, and malice. They were full of envy, murder, quarreling, deceit, and malignity.
30 ac kaskas in akkolukye sie sin sie. Elos srunga God, enum in kaskas, inse fulat ac filang. Elos kinauk inkanek in alein, ac seakos papa nina.
They became whisperers, back-biters, hated of God, insolent, haughty, boastful. They invented sins. They were disobedient to parents.
31 Elos koflana akilen inmasrlon ma wo ac ma koluk. Elos tia liyaung wulela lalos, ac wangin kulang ac pakoten lalos nu sin mwet.
They were without sense, without faith, without natural affection, without mercy.
32 Elos etu lah ma sap lun God fahk mu mwet su moulkin ouiya inge, fal elos in misa. Tusruktu elos nuna oru na ma inge, ac elos oayapa akkeye mwet saya ma oru ma inge.
Though they knew well the ordinance of God, that those who practise such vices are worthy of death, they not only continue to do the same, but were even applauding those who practise vice.
