1What then [is] the superiority of the Jew? or what the profit of circumcision?
1 Ifo binde ga ti Yahudance nafa? Wala ifo ga ti dambanguyaŋ nafa?
2Much every way: and first, indeed, that to them were entrusted the oracles of God.
2 To! Iboobo no kambu kulu gaa. Sintina day, Irikoy na nga Sanno talfi i gaa.
3For what? if some have not believed, shall their unbelief make the faith of God of none effect?
3 Ifo no? Baa da afooyaŋ jaŋ cimbeeri*, i cimbeeri-jaŋa ga Irikoy naanayo ye yaamo no?
4Far be the thought: but let God be true, and every man false; according as it is written, So that thou shouldest be justified in thy words, and shouldest overcome when thou art in judgment.
4 Abada! Irikoy ma ciya cimikoy, boro kulu mo tangarikom, mate kaŋ i n'a hantum ka ne: «Zama ni ma bara nda cimi ni sanney ra, Ni ma te zaama mo waati kaŋ ni goono ga ciiti dumbu.»
5But if our unrighteousness commend God's righteousness, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak according to man.
5 Amma d'iri adilitaray-jaŋa ga Irikoy adilitara cabe, ifo no iri ga ne? Irikoy kaŋ ga kande futay sinda cimi no? Abada! (Ay go ga hãayaŋo wo te sanda mate kaŋ Adam-ize ga hã).
6Far be the thought: since how shall God judge the world?
6 Da yaadin no, doŋ mate no Irikoy ga te ka ndunnya ciiti?
7For if the truth of God, in my lie, has more abounded to his glory, why yet am *I* also judged as a sinner?
7 Zama nd'ay tangaro ga naŋ Irikoy cimo ma baa ka tonton a darza se, ifo se no a ga ye k'ay ciiti zunubikooni ciitiyaŋ?
8and not, according as we are injuriously charged, and according as some affirm that we say, Let us practise evil things, that good ones may come? whose judgment is just.
8 Ifo se mo no iri si ne: «Iri ma goy laaloyaŋ te hala ihanno ma te.» (sanda mate kaŋ boro fooyaŋ n'iri alaasiray ka ne iri go ga ci yaadin). Borey din ciiti ka zeeriyaŋ ga saba.
9What then? are we better? No, in no wise: for we have before charged both Jews and Greeks with being all under sin:
9 Yaadin gaa, mate no? Iri bis'ey no? Abada! Baa kayna! Zama iri jin ka Yahudancey da dumi cindey kulu kalima ka ne i go zunubi dabaro ra.
10according as it is written, There is not a righteous [man], not even one;
10 Mate kaŋ i n'a hantum ka ne: «Adilante si no, baa afo.
11there is not the [man] that understands, there is not one that seeks after God.
11 Boro kulu si no kaŋ ga faham, boro kaŋ ga Irikoy ceeci si no.
12All have gone out of the way, they have together become unprofitable; there is not one that practises goodness, there is not so much as one:
12 I kulu kamba, i ciya yaamo care banda. Goy hanno teeko si no, baa afolloŋ si no.»
13their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; asps' poison [is] under their lips:
13 «I karrey ya saaray feeranteyaŋ no, I na hiila te da ngey deenayzey.» «Gazama naaji no go i me-kuurey ra,»
14whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness;
14 «I meyey to da laaliyaŋ da forti mo.»
15swift their feet to shed blood;
15 «I cey ga waasu boro wiyaŋ gaa.
16ruin and misery [are] in their ways,
16 Halaciyaŋ da masiiba no go i fondey boŋ.
17and way of peace they have not known:
17 I mana laakal kanay fonda bay mo.»
18there is no fear of God before their eyes.
18 «Irikoy humburkumay si i jine.»
19Now we know that whatever the things the law says, it speaks to those under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be under judgment to God.
19 A binde, iri ga bay kaŋ hay kulu kaŋ asariya ga ci, a g'a ci borey kaŋ yaŋ go asariya fonda ra se. Zama boro kulu me ma daabu, ndunnya kulu mo ma ye Irikoy ciito cire.
20Wherefore by works of law no flesh shall be justified before him; for by law [is] knowledge of sin.
20 Zama Irikoy si boro kulu guna adilante nga jine zama bora na asariya gana se, za kaŋ asariya no naŋ boro na zunubi bay.
21But now without law righteousness of God is manifested, borne witness to by the law and the prophets;
21 Amma sohõ, adilitaray kaŋ fun Irikoy do bangay, kaŋ manti nda asariya. Tawretu* nda Annabey* Tirey na woodin seeda.
22righteousness of God by faith of Jesus Christ towards all, and upon all those who believe: for there is no difference;
22 Nga ga ti adilitaray kaŋ ga fun Irikoy do _kaŋ boro ga du|_ Yesu Almasihu ra cimbeeri do. _A go|_ boro kulu se kaŋ g'a cimandi. Zama baar'a-baar'a si no.
23for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
23 Zama boro kulu na zunubi te, i gaze mo Irikoy darza gaa.
24being justified freely by his grace through the redemption which [is] in Christ Jesus;
24 Nga gomno do no Irikoy n'i ciya adilante _nga jine|_, nooyaŋ boŋ, fansa do kaŋ go Almasihu Yesu ra.
25whom God has set forth a mercy-seat, through faith in his blood, for [the] shewing forth of his righteousness, in respect of the passing by the sins that had taken place before, through the forbearance of God;
25 Nga no Irikoy bangandi sasabandiyaŋ sargay* a kuro do borey se kaŋ g'a cimandi. Irikoy na woodin te ka nga adilitara bangandi zama a man'i ciiti nda ngey doŋ zunubey nga jalla ra.
26for [the] shewing forth of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just, and justify him that is of [the] faith of Jesus.
26 Amma sohõ, zamana wo ra, a na nga adilitara cabe, kaŋ nga ya adilitaraykoy no, a ga boro kaŋ ga Yesu cimandi ciya adilante _nga jine|_ mo.
27Where then [is] boasting? It has been excluded. By what law? of works? Nay, but by law of faith;
27 Man fooma haro binde? I n'a kaa! Asariya woofo boŋ? Te-goy wane no? Abada! Amma cimbeeri asariya boŋ no.
28for we reckon that a man is justified by faith, without works of law.
28 Zama iri ga lasaabu kaŋ Irikoy ga boro ciya adilante _nga jine|_ zama bora cimandi, kaŋ manti nda asariya te-goyey.
29Is [God] the God of Jews only? is he not of [the] nations also? Yea, of nations also:
29 Wala Irikoy ya Yahudancey hinne wane no? E! Manti dumi cindey wane mo no? Oho, sikka si, dumi cindey wane mo no,
30since indeed [it is] one God who shall justify [the] circumcision on the principle of faith, and uncircumcision by faith.
30 za kaŋ Irikoy ya afolloŋ no. A ga dambangantey ciya adilante _nga jine|_ zama i cimandi. A ga borey kaŋ manti dambanganteyaŋ mo ciya adilante _nga jine|_ zama i cimandi.
31Do we then make void law by faith? Far be the thought: [no,] but we establish law.
31 Yaadin gaa iri ga asariya ciya yaamo cimbeeri do no? Abada! Amma iri goono ga asariya tabbatandi no.
