Young`s Literal Translation

Amharic: New Testament

Romans

13

1Let every soul to the higher authorities be subject, for there is no authority except from God, and the authorities existing are appointed by God,
1ነፍስ ሁሉ በበላይ ላሉት ባለ ሥልጣኖች ይገዛ። ከእግዚአብሔር ካልተገኘ በቀር ሥልጣን የለምና፤ ያሉትም ባለ ሥልጣኖች በእግዚአብሔር የተሾሙ ናቸው።
2so that he who is setting himself against the authority, against God`s ordinance hath resisted; and those resisting, to themselves shall receive judgment.
2ስለዚህ ባለ ሥልጣንን የሚቃወም የእግዚአብሔርን ሥርዓት ይቃወማል፤ የሚቃወሙትም በራሳቸው ላይ ፍርድን ይቀበላሉ።
3For those ruling are not a terror to the good works, but to the evil; and dost thou wish not to be afraid of the authority? that which is good be doing, and thou shalt have praise from it,
3ገዥዎች ለክፉ አድራጊዎች እንጂ መልካም ለሚያደርጉ የሚያስፈሩ አይደሉምና። ባለ ሥልጣንን እንዳትፈራ ትወዳለህን? መልካሙን አድርግ ከእርሱም ምስጋና ይሆንልሃል፤
4for of God it is a ministrant to thee for good; and if that which is evil thou mayest do, be fearing, for not in vain doth it bear the sword; for of God it is a ministrant, an avenger for wrath to him who is doing that which is evil.
4ለመልካም ነገር ለአንተ የእግዚአብሔር አገልጋይ ነውና። በከንቱ ግን ሰይፍ አይታጠቅምና ክፉ ብታደርግ ፍራ፤ ቍጣውን ለማሳየት ክፉ አድራጊውን የሚበቀል የእግዚአብሔር አገልጋይ ነውና።
5Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only because of the wrath, but also because of the conscience,
5ስለዚህ ስለ ቍጣው ብቻ አይደለም ነገር ግን ስለ ሕሊና ደግሞ መገዛት ግድ ነው።
6for because of this also pay ye tribute; for servants of God they are, on this very thing attending continually;
6ስለዚህ ደግሞ ትገብራላችሁና፤ በዚህ ነገር የሚተጉ የእግዚአብሔር አገልጋዮች ናቸውና።
7render, therefore, to all [their] dues; to whom tribute, the tribute; to whom custom, the custom; to whom fear, the fear; to whom honour, the honour.
7ለሁሉ የሚገባውን አስረክቡ፤ ግብር ለሚገባው ግብርን፥ ቀረጥ ለሚገባው ቀረጥን፥ መፈራት ለሚገባው መፈራትን፥ ክብር ለሚገባው ክብርን ስጡ።
8To no one owe anything, except to love one another; for he who is loving the other — law he hath fulfilled,
8እርስ በርሳችሁ ከመዋደድ በቀር ለማንም ዕዳ አይኑርባችሁ፥ ሌላውን የሚወድ ሕግን ፈጽሞታልና።
9for, `Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false testimony, Thou shalt not covet;` and if there is any other command, in this word it is summed up, in this: `Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself;`
9አታመንዝር፥ አትግደል፥ አትስረቅ፥ በውሸት አትመስክር፥ አትመኝ የሚለው ከሌላይቱ ትእዛዝ ሁሉ ጋር በዚህ። ባልንጀራህን እንደ ነፍስህ ውደድ በሚለው ቃል ተጠቅልሎአል።
10the love to the neighbor doth work no ill; the love, therefore, [is] the fulness of law.
10ፍቅር ለባልንጀራው ክፉ አያደርግም፤ ስለዚህ ፍቅር የሕግ ፍጻሜ ነው።
11And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already [is] to be aroused out of sleep, for now nearer [is] our salvation than when we did believe;
11ከእንቅልፍ የምትነሡበት ሰዓት አሁን እንደ ደረሰ ዘመኑን እወቁ፤ ካመንንበት ጊዜ ይልቅ መዳናችን ዛሬ ወደ እኛ ቀርቦአልና።
12the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;
12ሌሊቱ አልፎአል፥ ቀኑም ቀርቦአል። እንግዲህ የጨለማውን ሥራ አውጥተን የብርሃንን ጋሻ ጦር እንልበስ።
13as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;
13በቀን እንደምንሆን በአገባብ እንመላለስ፤ በዘፈንና በስካር አይሁን፥ በዝሙትና በመዳራት አይሁን፥ በክርክርና በቅናት አይሁን፤
14but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought — for desires.
14ነገር ግን ጌታን ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስን ልበሱት፤ ምኞቱንም እንዲፈጽም ለሥጋ አታስቡ።
