¹Fa isika izay matanjaka dia tokony hitondra ny fahalemen'ny malemy ka tsy hitady izay hahafaly ny tenantsika ihany.

¹And we ought — we who are strong — to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves;

²Aoka isika rehetra samy hitady izay hahafaly ny namantsika amin'izay hahasoa sy hampandroso azy.

²for let each one of us please the neighbor for good, unto edification,

³Fa Kristy aza tsy nitady izay hahafaly ny tenany; fa araka ny voasoratra hoe: Ny latsa nataon'izay nandatsa Anao dia nihatra tamiko (Sal. 69. 9).

³for even the Christ did not please himself, but, according as it hath been written, `The reproaches of those reproaching Thee fell upon me;`

⁴Fa izay rehetra voasoratra fahiny dia nosoratana ho fianarantsika hananantsika ny fanantenana amin'ny faharetana sy ny fiononana avy amin'ny Soratra Masina.

⁴for, as many things as were written before, for our instruction were written before, that through the endurance, and the exhortation of the Writings, we might have the hope.

⁵Fa Andriamanitry ny faharetana sy ny fiononana anie hampiray hevitra anareo araka an 'i Kristy Jesosy,

⁵And may the God of the endurance, and of the exhortation, give to you to have the same mind toward one another, according to Christ Jesus;

⁶mba ho saina iray sy vava iray no hiarahanareo mankalaza an'Andriamanitra, Rain'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika.

⁶that with one accord — with one mouth — ye may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ;

⁷Koa mifandraisa ianareo tahaka ny nandraisan'i Kristy anareo koa ho voninahitr'Andriamanitra. [ Na: (antsika)]

⁷wherefore receive ye one another, according as also the Christ did receive us, to the glory of God.

⁸Fa lazaiko fa Kristy efa tonga mpanompon'ny voafora noho ny fahamarinan'Andriamanitra hahatò ny teny fikasana tamin'ny razana,

⁸And I say Jesus Christ to have become a ministrant of circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises to the fathers,

⁹mba hankalazan'ny jentilisa an'Andriamanitra koa noho ny famindram-po, araka ny voasoratra hoe: Izany no hiderako Anao any amin'ny jentilisa Sy hankalazako ny anaranao (Sal. 18. 49).

⁹and the nations for kindness to glorify God, according as it hath been written, `Because of this I will confess to Thee among nations, and to Thy name I will sing praise,`

¹⁰Ary hoy koa Izy: Miravoravoa. ry jentilisa, mbamin'ny olony (Deo. 32. 43).

¹⁰and again it saith, `Rejoice ye nations, with His people;`

¹¹Ary koa: Midera'an'i Jehovah, ry jentilisa rehetra. Ary aoka hankalaza Azy ny firenena rehetra (Sal. 117. 1).

¹¹and again, `Praise the Lord, all ye nations; and laud Him, all ye peoples;`

¹²Ary hoy koa Isaia: Hisy Solofon'i Jese. Dia Ilay hitsangana hanapaka ny jentilisa; Izy no hitokian'ny jentilisa (Iza. 11. 10).

¹²and again, Isaiah saith, `There shall be the root of Jesse, and he who is rising to rule nations — upon him shall nations hope;`

¹³Ary Andriamanitry ny fanantenana anie hameno anareo amin'ny fifaliana sy ny fiadanana rehetra amin'ny finoanareo, mba hitomboanareo amin'ny fanantenana noho ny herin'ny Fanahy Masina.

¹³and the God of the hope shall fill you with all joy and peace in the believing, for your abounding in the hope in power of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁴Fa izaho koa, ry rahalahiko, dia matoky ny aminareo fa feno fahatsarana ianareo sady mahay mifananatra koa.

¹⁴And I am persuaded, my brethren — I myself also — concerning you, that ye yourselves also are full of goodness, having been filled with all knowledge, able also one another to admonish;

¹⁵Kanefa amin'ny fahasahiana no anoratako ny teny sasany aminareo, toy ny mampahatsiaro anareo indray noho ny fahasoavana nomen'Andriamanitra ahy,

¹⁵and the more boldly I did write to you, brethren, in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me by God,

¹⁶mba ho mpanompon'i Kristy Jesosy ho an'ny jentilisa aho ka manao fanompoam-pivavahana amin'ny itoriako ny filazantsaran'Andriamanitra, mba horaisina amin'ny fankasitrahana ny fanatitra, dia ny jentilisa, rehefa nohamasinin'ny Fanahy Masina.

¹⁶for my being a servant of Jesus Christ to the nations, acting as priest in the good news of God, that the offering up of the nations may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁷Ka dia manana izay hataoko rehareha ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy aho noho ny amin'Andriamanitra.

¹⁷I have, then, a boasting in Christ Jesus, in the things pertaining to God,

¹⁸Fa tsy sahiko lazaina izay zavatra tsy nampanaovin'i Kristy ahy, na tamin'ny teny, na tamin'ny asa, mba hampanaiky ny jentilisa,

¹⁸for I will not dare to speak anything of the things that Christ did not work through me, to obedience of nations, by word and deed,

¹⁹dia tamin'ny herin'ny famantarana sy ny fahagagana, ary tamin'ny herin'ny Fanahy Masina, dia hatrany Jerosalema ka manodidina hatrany Ilyrikiona, no nahatanterahako ny fitoriako ny filazantsaran'i Kristy. [ Na: (Fanahin'Andriamanitra)]

¹⁹in power of signs and wonders, in power of the Spirit of God; so that I, from Jerusalem, and in a circle as far as Illyricum, have fully preached the good news of the Christ;

²⁰Koa dia nataoko ho voninahitro ny hitory ny filazantsara toy izao: tsy eo amin'izay efa niantsoana an'i Kristy anefa, fandrao hanovona eo ambonin'izay efa naorin'ny sasany aho;

²⁰and so counting it honour to proclaim good news, not where Christ was named — that upon another`s foundation I might not build —

²¹fa araka ny voasoratra hoe: Izay tsy nilazana Azy no hahita, Ary izay tsy nandre no hahafantatra (Isa. 52. 15).

²¹but according as it hath been written, `To whom it was not told concerning him, they shall see; and they who have not heard, shall understand.`

²²Ary izany no nahasampona ahy matetika tsy hankany aminareo.

²²Wherefore, also, I was hindered many times from coming unto you,

²³Fa ankehitriny, satria tsy misy antony intsony ny itoerako amin'ireto tany ireto sady efa naniry hatramin'ny taona maro hankany aminareo aho,

²³and now, no longer having place in these parts, and having a longing to come unto you for many years,

²⁴raha mankany Spania; fa manantena hahita anareo amin'ny alehako aho ka haterinareo ho any, rehefa afakafaka ny alaheloko anareo.

²⁴when I may go on to Spain I will come unto you, for I hope in going through, to see you, and by you to be set forward thither, if of you first, in part, I shall be filled.

²⁵Fa ankehitriny dia efa hankany Jerosalema aho hanompo ny olona masina.

²⁵And, now, I go on to Jerusalem, ministering to the saints;

²⁶Fa efa sitrapon'Makedonia sy Akaia ny hamory vola hiantrana ny malahelo amin'ny olona masina any Jerosalema.

²⁶for it pleased Macedonia and Achaia well to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who [are] in Jerusalem;

²⁷Eny, sitrapony izany, sady mpitrosa aminy izy. Fa raha ny jentilisa no niombona ny zava-panahy taminy, dia tokony hanompo azy kosa amin'ny zavatra momba ny nofo izy.

²⁷for it pleased well, and their debtors they are, for if in their spiritual things the nations did participate, they ought also, in the fleshly things, to minister to them.

²⁸Ary rehefa vitako izany, ka voatolotro azy soa aman-tsara izany vokatra izany, dia hihazo any aminareo aho, raha mankany Spania.

²⁸This, then, having finished, and having sealed to them this fruit, I will return through you, to Spain;

²⁹Ary fantatro fa raha mankany aminareo aho, dia homba ahy ny fahafenoan'ny fitahian'i Kristy.

²⁹and I have known that coming unto you — in the fulness of the blessing of the good news of Christ I shall come.

³⁰Ary mangataka aminareo aho, ry rahalahy, noho ny amin'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika sy ny fitiavana avy amin'ny Fanahy, mba hiarahanareo miezaka amiko amin'ny fivavahanareo amin'Andriamanitra ho ahy,

³⁰And I call upon you, brethren, through our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in the prayers for me unto God,

³¹mba ho voavonjy amin'ny tsy mino any Jodia aho, ary mba hankasitrahan'ny ny olona masina izay fanompoana hataoko any Jerosalema,

³¹that I may be delivered from those not believing in Judea, and that my ministration, that [is] for Jerusalem, may become acceptable to the saints;

³²mba hankanesako any aminareo amin'ny fifaliana, raha sitrapon'Andriamanitra, ka samy ho velombelona ny fontsika.Ary Andriamanitry ny fiadanana anie ho aminareo rehetra. Amena.

³²that in joy I may come unto you, through the will of God, and may be refreshed with you,

³³Ary Andriamanitry ny fiadanana anie ho aminareo rehetra. Amena.

³³and the God of the peace [be] with you all. Amen.
