¹Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,

¹O Pavlo, ek sluga le Jesus Kristosko, sas akhardo te avel Apostle alosardo te phenel e lashi viasta le Devleski.

²which he promised before through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,

²E lashi viasta kai sas shinadi mai anglal katar O Del katar leske profeturia kai si ande Vorba le Devleski.

³concerning his Son, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,

³Kai mothol pa pesko Shav O Jesus Kristo, kai kerdilo andai vitsa le Davidoski ando stato.

⁴who was declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

⁴Ai sas thodino Shav Devlesko putierasa pala Swunto Duxo, ai katar lesko zhuvindimos mashkar le mule.

⁵through whom we received grace and apostleship, for obedience of faith among all the nations, for his name’s sake;

⁵O Jesus Kristo amaro Del kai lestar sas ame te avas apostluria, ando anav le Kristosko, te anas manushen ande sa le thema te pachanpe ai te keren o zakono le Devlesko.

⁶among whom you are also called to belong to Jesus Christ;

⁶Vi tume kai san ande Rome, kai O Del akhardia tume te aven le Jesus Kristoske.

⁷to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

⁷Ramov tumenge, tumenge kai san ande Rome, tume savorhe kai O Del drago tumenge, ai akhardia te traiin leske, te del tume o lashimos ai e pacha katar amaro Del, amaro Dat, ai O Del Jesus Kristo.

⁸First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, that your faith is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

⁸Mai anglal naisisarav murhe Devleske ando Jesus Kristo pa tumende, ke ashunas ke den duma pa tumaro pachamos ande sa e lumia.

⁹For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,

⁹O Del kai me kerav leske buchi sa murhe ilesa, kai phenav e lashi viasta pa lesko Shav, zhanel ke da ma sagda goji tumende.

¹⁰requesting, if by any means now at last I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you.

¹⁰Ai mangav sagda ando murho rhugimos, te avel ma dino katar leske voia o raduimos te zhav te dikhav tume.

¹¹For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to the end that you may be established;

¹¹Ke mangav te dikhav tume, te anav tumenge iek podarka katar O Swunto Duxo, te aven zurale.

¹²that is, that I with you may be encouraged in you, each of us by the other’s faith, both yours and mine.

¹²Ai mangav mai but te avav tumende te las andek than iek zor, me katar tumaro pachamos, ai tume katar murho pachamos.

¹³Now I don’t desire to have you unaware, brothers, that I often planned to come to you, and was hindered so far, that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.

¹³Chi mangav te mekav tumen bi te zhanen murhe phral, ke butivar manglem te zhav te dikhav tumen, numa aterdiarenas ma zhi akana, ke mangavas murhi buchi te kerel mishtimos mashkar tumende, sar kerdilia mashkar le kolaver thema anda lumia.

¹⁴I am debtor both to Greeks and to foreigners, both to the wise and to the foolish.

¹⁴Ke trobul te zhav kal manush kai traiin andel foruria ai vi kal manush kai si avrial, ai vi kal gojaver ai vi kodola kai nai gojaver.

¹⁵So, as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.

¹⁵Anda kodia sima ando ilo te phenav tumenge e lashi viasta, vi tumenge kai san ande Rome.

¹⁶For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

¹⁶Ke chi lazhav katar Vorba le Kristoski; ke kodia si e putiera le Devleski ai o skepimos kodoleske kai pachalpe; mai anglal o Zhidovo, porme o Greko.

¹⁷For in it is revealed God’s righteousness from faith to faith. As it is written, “But the righteous shall live by faith.” Habakkuk 2:4

¹⁷Ke ande Vorba le Devleski si o chachimos le Devlesko katar o pachamos ai le pachamaske, ke kadia si le ramome, o manush kai si vorta le Devlesa traiila anda pachamos.

¹⁸For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

¹⁸O Del sikavel peski xoli anda cheri pe sa o bezex ai so godi baio keren le manush, ai katar o bezex kai keren te aterdiaren o chachimos.

¹⁹because that which is known of God is revealed in them, for God revealed it to them.

¹⁹O Del dosharel le ke so zhanen katar O Del, nai trutno lenge te haliaren. O Del sikadia lenge sar si.

²⁰For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse.

²⁰Chaches de sar O Del kerdia e lumia, le bucha kai wo kerel ai ame chi dikhas, kodia si leski putiera kai shoxar chi getolpe, ai wo kai si Swunto dikhel pe andel dieli kai kerdia, ai kadia le manush sai zhanen so kerdia, saxke te na mothon ke chi zhanen!

²¹Because, knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, neither gave thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened.

²¹Zhanen le Devles, numa chi luvudin les, ai chi naisin leske sar trobul te kerel pe le Devleske, numa won lenge ginduria kerdile dzilimos, ai lengo ilo zurailo ai pherdilo tuniariko.

²²Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

²²Won mothon ke gojaver le, numa dzile le.

²³and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

²³Kai trobul te luvudin o barimos le Devlesko kai chi merel, numa won luvudin xoxamne ikoni kai miazon manushen kai sai meren, ai ka chiriklia, ai zhigeni shtare punrhensa, ai sapen, ai shupolen.

²⁴Therefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves,

²⁴Anda kodia O Del meklia le te keren dieli bi vuzhe, ke lengo ilo mangelas kadia, ai traiinas defial zhungales iek kavresa.

²⁵who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

²⁵Won kai parhude o chachimos le Devlesko ando xoxaimos, ai luvudisarde ai podaisarde le manushes de sar kodoles kai kerdia les, ai kai si Swuntsome sagda. Amen.

²⁶For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.

²⁶Anda kodia O Del meklia le te keren dieli zhungale, vi lenge zhuvlia parhude, ai chi mai keren so sas malades, ai keren dieli kai si bi malade:

²⁷Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.

²⁷Vi le mursh, chi mai keren so trobulas te kerdiol le zhuvliansa, ai te aven drago iek avreske, le mursh keren dieli zhungale iek avresa, ai kadia doshale le kai rimonpe katar O Del.

²⁸Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

²⁸Chi mangle te luvudin le Devles, O Del meklia le pala pengi goji, kai nai vorta te keren so chi trobulas te keren.

²⁹being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil habits, secret slanderers,

²⁹Pherdo xoxaimos le, kurvisia, chorho ginduria, bi lashe, ai mangen so si avres, ai pherdo zhaluzile ai mudaren, ai keren chingara, maren mui iek avesa, ai atsaren, ai roden baio, ai pupuin,

³⁰backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

³⁰ai mothon bi lashimos pa iek avreske, won si le duzhmaia le Devleske, dziliaren, barimatange, mothon so kerde won ai won keren dieli te xoxaven, ai te keren baio, ai chi keren so mangen o dat ai e dei lendar ai chi pachan lengo mui,

³¹without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;

³¹Chi haliaren kanch, ai chi keren so mothon, bi lashe le ai nai le dragostia, bi malako le kolavrenge:

³²who, knowing the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them.

³²Zhanen o zakono le Devlesko, le manush kai keren kadia trobul mudarde, numa savon keren kadala bucha, ai mai but mothon ke vorta keren kadala kai keren sar lende.
