¹Ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa' -ku! Konoa-ku mpu'u, bona to Israel tebahaka ngkai huku' jeko' -ra. Toe to kupekakae oa' -raka hi Alata'ala.

¹Brothers, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved.

²Mantata' mpu'u pepue' -ra hi Alata'ala-- kusabii' moto toe-e. Aga uma ra'incai ohea to makono hilou hi Alata'ala.

²For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.

³Rapiri mata-ra hi ohea to napakasadia Alata'ala. Oja' -ra mengkoru hi Kristus bona jadi' monoa' -ra hi poncilo Alata'ala, ra'agi mpotuku' ohea-ra moto-rawo, doko' mpomonoa' woto-ra hi kampotuku' -ra Atura Pue'.

³For being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn’t subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

⁴Tapi' Kristus, Hi'a-mi kadupaa' -na Atura Pue'. Hawe'ea tauna to mepangala' hi Hi'a, jadi' monoa' hi poncilo Alata'ala.

⁴For Christ is the fulfillment or, completion, or end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

⁵Ria lolita nabi Musa owi to mpo'uli': hema to doko' jadi' monoa' ngkai kampotuku' -ra Atura Pue', mporata-ra katuwua' to lompe' asala ratuku' omea Atura Pue' toe.

⁵For Moses writes about the righteousness of the law, “The one who does them will live by them.” Leviticus 18:5

⁷Aga ria wo'o-pidi lolita Musa kahamela-na to mpo'uli' ma'ala-ta jadi' monoa' hi poncilo Alata'ala ngkai pepangala' -ta. Hewa toi moni-na: Neo' nu'uli' hi rala nono-nu: `Hema to mpakule' ngkahe' hilou hi suruga? Hema to bisa mana'u hilou hi po'ohaa' tomate?'"

⁶But the righteousness which is of faith says this, “Don’t say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ Deuteronomy 30:12 (that is, to bring Christ down);

⁸Na'uli' wo'o Musa hewa toi: Kareba Pue' mohu' -wadi, ria hi wiwi-ta pai' ria hi nono-ta."

⁷or, ‘Who will descend into the abyss?’ Deuteronomy 30:13 (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead.)”

⁹Ane tapangaku' hante wiwi-ta: "Yesus Hi'a-mi Pue'," pai' ane tapangala' hi rala nono-ta Alata'ala mpotuwu' -i nculii' ngkai kamatea, bate tehore-tamo ngkai huku' jeko' -ta.

⁸But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth, and in your heart”; Deuteronomy 30:14 that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

¹⁰Apa' mepangala' -ta hi Yesus hante nono-ta, alaa-na Alata'ala mpo'uli' kamonoa' -ta hi poncilo-na. Pai' tapangaku' Yesus hante wiwi-ta, alaa-na tehore-tamo ngkai huku' jeko' -ta.

⁹that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

¹¹Hi rala Buku Tomoroli' ria te'uki' hewa toi: "Hawe'ea tauna to mepangala' hi Hi'a, uma-ra mpai' hala'nawu'."

¹⁰For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

¹²Lolita toe bate mpobelahi hawe'ea tauna, apa' uma ria posisalaa-na to Yahudi ba tau ntani' -na. Hadua lau-wadi Pue' hi hawe'ea manusia', pai' bohe ahi' -na hi hawe'ea tauna to mekakae hi Hi'a.

¹¹For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.” Isaiah 28:16

¹³Apa' "Hawe'ea tauna to mekakae hi Pue', bate tehore-ra ngkai huku' jeko' -ra."

¹²For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him.

¹⁴Hiaa' beiwa-ramo-rana mekakae hi Pue' ane ko'ia-ra mepangala'? Pai' uma wo'o hema to mepangala' ane ko'ia ra'epei Kareba Lompe'. Pai' uma wo'o-ra bisa mpo'epe Kareba Lompe' ane uma hema to mpokarebai-raka.

¹³For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Joel 2:32

¹⁵Pai' hema mpai' to mpokarebai-raka ane uma hema to rasuro? Hewa to te'uki' owi hi rala Buku Tomoroli': "Lompe' lia karata tauna to mpokeni kareba lompe'!"

¹⁴How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher?

¹⁶Aga uma hawe'ea tauna mpopangala' Kareba Lompe' to raparata-raka toe. Ria lolita nabi Yesaya owi to mpo'uli': "Pue', uma hema to mpangala' kareba to kikeni."

¹⁵And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” Isaiah 52:7

¹⁷Jadi', manusia' kana mpo'epe ulu kareba-na, pai' lako' ma'ala-ra mepangala'. Pai' ane ria to mpoparata-raka Kareba Kristus toe, pai' lako' ma'ala-ra mpo'epe.

¹⁶But they didn’t all listen to the glad news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” Isaiah 53:1

¹⁸Aga neo' ta'uli' hewa toi: "To Israel, ko'ia-ra mpo'epei Kareba Lompe'." Ra'epe moto-midi! Hi rala Buku Tomoroli' te'uki' hewa toi: Kareba toe molele-mi hi humalili' dunia'. Lolita toe raparata-mi hi hawe'ea manusia'."

¹⁷So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

¹⁹Neo' wo'o ta'uli' hewa toi: "To Israel uma-hawo mpopaha patuju Alata'ala mpowai' kalompea' hi manusia'." Rapaha moto-midi! Lomo' -lomo' -na, ria Lolita Alata'ala to naparata nabi Musa, hewa toi moni-na: Koi' to Yahudi, kubabehi-koi mohingi' mpai' kampohilo-ni ahi' -ku hi tauna to bela-ra to Yahudi. Nipokedi' nono mpai' mpohilo pompewili' -ku hi tauna to uma mpo'incai-a ngkai owi."

¹⁸But I say, didn’t they hear? Yes, most certainly, “Their sound went out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.” Psalm 19:4

²⁰Oti toe, ria wo'o Lolita Alata'ala to lonto' lia to naparata nabi Yesaya. Na'uli' Alata'ala hewa toi: Tauna to uma mpopali' -a, hira' lau-mi to mporua' -a. Pai' tauna to uma mpekune' kahema-ku, kupopo'incai lau-ramo kahema-ku."

¹⁹But I ask, didn’t Israel know? First Moses says, “I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, with a nation void of understanding I will make you angry.” Deuteronomy 32:31

²¹Hiaa' ane to Israel-hana, Alata'ala mpo'uli' hewa toi: "Ha'eoa kutonu pale-ku doko' mpodoa-ra, tapi' bate mesapuaka-ra pai' motu'a oa' nono-ra."

²⁰Isaiah is very bold, and says, “I was found by those who didn’t seek me. I was revealed to those who didn’t ask for me.” Isaiah 65:1

²¹But as to Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.” Isaiah 65:2
