romiṇaḥ 15
1 balavadbhirasmābhi rdurbbalānāṁ daurbbalyaṁ soḍhavyaṁ na ca sveṣām iṣṭācāra ācaritavyaḥ|
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 asmākam ekaiko janaḥ svasamīpavāsino hitārthaṁ niṣṭhārthañca tasyaiveṣṭācāram ācaratu|
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
3 yataḥ khrīṣṭo'pi nijeṣṭācāraṁ nācaritavān, yathā likhitam āste, tvannindakagaṇasyaiva nindābhi rnindito'smyahaṁ|
For even Messiah did not please himself. But, as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fell on me."
4 aparañca vayaṁ yat sahiṣṇutāsāntvanayo rjanakena śāstreṇa pratyāśāṁ labhemahi tannimittaṁ pūrvvakāle likhitāni sarvvavacanānyasmākam upadeśārthameva lilikhire|
For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and through encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
5 sahiṣṇutāsāntvanayorākaro ya īśvaraḥ sa evaṁ karotu yat prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭa iva yuṣmākam ekajano'nyajanena sārddhaṁ manasa aikyam ācaret;
Now the God of patience and of encouragement grant you to be of the same mind one with another according to Messiah Jesus,
6 yūyañca sarvva ekacittā bhūtvā mukhaikenevāsmatprabhuyīśukhrīṣṭasya piturīśvarasya guṇān kīrttayeta|
that with one accord you may with one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah.
7 aparam īśvarasya mahimnaḥ prakāśārthaṁ khrīṣṭo yathā yuṣmān pratyagṛhlāt tathā yuṣmākamapyeko jano'nyajanaṁ pratigṛhlātu|
Therefore accept one another, even as Messiah also accepted you, to the glory of God.
8 yathā likhitam āste, ato'haṁ sammukhe tiṣṭhan bhinnadeśanivāsināṁ| stuvaṁstvāṁ parigāsyāmi tava nāmni pareśvara||
Now I say that Messiah has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,
9 tasya dayālutvācca bhinnajātīyā yad īśvarasya guṇān kīrttayeyustadarthaṁ yīśuḥ khrīṣṭastvakchedaniyamasya nighno'bhavad ityahaṁ vadāmi| yathā likhitam āste, ato'haṁ sammukhe tiṣṭhan bhinnadeśanivāsināṁ| stuvaṁstvāṁ parigāsyāmi tava nāmni pareśvara||
and that the non-Jews might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "therefore I will give praise to you among the non-Jews, and sing to your name."
10 aparamapi likhitam āste, he anyajātayo yūyaṁ samaṁ nandata tajjanaiḥ|
Again he says, "Rejoice, you nations, with his people."
11 punaśca likhitam āste, he sarvvadeśino yūyaṁ dhanyaṁ brūta pareśvaraṁ| he tadīyanarā yūyaṁ kurudhvaṁ tatpraśaṁsanaṁ||
Again, "Praise the Lord, all you nations. Let all the peoples praise him."
12 apara yīśāyiyo'pi lilekha, yīśayasya tu yat mūlaṁ tat prakāśiṣyate tadā| sarvvajātīyanṛṇāñca śāsakaḥ samudeṣyati| tatrānyadeśilokaiśca pratyāśā prakariṣyate||
Again, Isaiah says, "There will be the root of Jesse, he who arises to rule over the peoples; in him will the nations hope."
13 ataeva yūyaṁ pavitrasyātmanaḥ prabhāvād yat sampūrṇāṁ pratyāśāṁ lapsyadhve tadarthaṁ tatpratyāśājanaka īśvaraḥ pratyayena yuṣmān śāntyānandābhyāṁ sampūrṇān karotu|
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
14 he bhrātaro yūyaṁ sadbhāvayuktāḥ sarvvaprakāreṇa jñānena ca sampūrṇāḥ parasparopadeśe ca tatparā ityahaṁ niścitaṁ jānāmi,
I myself am also persuaded about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish others.
15 tathāpyahaṁ yat pragalbhataro bhavan yuṣmān prabodhayāmi tasyaikaṁ kāraṇamidaṁ|
But I write the more boldly to you in part, as reminding you, because of the grace that was given to me by God,
16 bhinnajātīyāḥ pavitreṇātmanā pāvitanaivedyarūpā bhūtvā yad grāhyā bhaveyustannimittamaham īśvarasya susaṁvādaṁ pracārayituṁ bhinnajātīyānāṁ madhye yīśukhrīṣṭasya sevakatvaṁ dānaṁ īśvarāt labdhavānasmi|
that I should be a servant of Messiah Jesus to the non-Jews, serving as a priest the gospel of God, that the offering up of the non-Jews might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
17 īśvaraṁ prati yīśukhrīṣṭena mama ślāghākaraṇasya kāraṇam āste|
I have therefore my boasting in Messiah Jesus in things pertaining to God.
18 bhinnadeśina ājñāgrāhiṇaḥ karttuṁ khrīṣṭo vākyena kriyayā ca, āścaryyalakṣaṇaiścitrakriyābhiḥ pavitrasyātmanaḥ prabhāvena ca yāni karmmāṇi mayā sādhitavān,
For I will not dare to speak of any things except those which Messiah worked through me, for the obedience of the non-Jews, by word and deed,
19 kevalaṁ tānyeva vinānyasya kasyacit karmmaṇo varṇanāṁ karttuṁ pragalbho na bhavāmi| tasmāt ā yirūśālama illūrikaṁ yāvat sarvvatra khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādaṁ prācārayaṁ|
in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Messiah.
20 anyena nicitāyāṁ bhittāvahaṁ yanna nicinomi tannimittaṁ yatra yatra sthāne khrīṣṭasya nāma kadāpi kenāpi na jñāpitaṁ tatra tatra susaṁvādaṁ pracārayitum ahaṁ yate|
And in this way I desire to preach the Good News where Messiah was not known, that I might not build on another's foundation.
21 yādṛśaṁ likhitam āste, yai rvārttā tasya na prāptā darśanaṁ taistu lapsyate| yaiśca naiva śrutaṁ kiñcit boddhuṁ śakṣyanti te janāḥ||
But, as it is written, "Those who were not told about him, they will see, and those who have not heard, they will understand."
22 tasmād yuṣmatsamīpagamanād ahaṁ muhurmuhu rnivārito'bhavaṁ|
Therefore also I was hindered these many times from coming to you,
23 kintvidānīm atra pradeśeṣu mayā na gataṁ sthānaṁ kimapi nāvaśiṣyate yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gantuṁ bahuvatsarānārabhya māmakīnākāṅkṣā ca vidyata iti hetoḥ
but now, no longer having any place in these regions, and having these many years a longing to come to you,
24 spāniyādeśagamanakāle'haṁ yuṣmanmadhyena gacchan yuṣmān ālokiṣye, tataḥ paraṁ yuṣmatsambhāṣaṇena tṛptiṁ parilabhya taddeśagamanārthaṁ yuṣmābhi rvisarjayiṣye, īdṛśī madīyā pratyāśā vidyate|
whenever I journey to Spain I will come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
25 kintu sāmprataṁ pavitralokānāṁ sevanāya yirūśālamnagaraṁ vrajāmi|
But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.
26 yato yirūśālamasthapavitralokānāṁ madhye ye daridrā arthaviśrāṇanena tānupakarttuṁ mākidaniyādeśīyā ākhāyādeśīyāśca lokā aicchan|
For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.
27 eṣā teṣāṁ sadicchā yataste teṣām ṛṇinaḥ santi yato heto rbhinnajātīyā yeṣāṁ paramārthasyāṁśino jātā aihikaviṣaye teṣāmupakārastaiḥ karttavyaḥ|
Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the non-Jewish people have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.
28 ato mayā tat karmma sādhayitvā tasmin phale tebhyaḥ samarpite yuṣmanmadhyena spāniyādeśo gamiṣyate|
When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.
29 yuṣmatsamīpe mamāgamanasamaye khrīṣṭasya susaṁvādasya pūrṇavareṇa sambalitaḥ san aham āgamiṣyāmi iti mayā jñāyate|
I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Messiah.
30 he bhrātṛgaṇa prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya nāmnā pavitrasyātmānaḥ premnā ca vinaye'haṁ
Now I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah, and by the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,
31 yihūdādeśasthānām aviśvāsilokānāṁ karebhyo yadahaṁ rakṣāṁ labheya madīyaitena sevanakarmmaṇā ca yad yirūśālamasthāḥ pavitralokāstuṣyeyuḥ,
that I may be delivered from those who are disobedient in Judea, and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints;
32 tadarthaṁ yūyaṁ matkṛta īśvarāya prārthayamāṇā yatadhvaṁ tenāham īśvarecchayā sānandaṁ yuṣmatsamīpaṁ gatvā yuṣmābhiḥ sahitaḥ prāṇān āpyāyituṁ pārayiṣyāmi|
that I may come to you in joy through the will of God, and together with you, find rest.
33 śāntidāyaka īśvaro yuṣmākaṁ sarvveṣāṁ saṅgī bhūyāt| iti|
Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
