1 Kon nag képp ku mu man a doon, yaw miy àtte sa moroom ak ñaaw njort, amuloo aw lay, ndaxte àtte sa moroom, daan sa bopp la; yaa ngi koy àtte ndax ay jëfam, fekk yaw itam noonu ngay jëfe.
1Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
2 Xam nanu ne, ñiy jëfe noonu, Yàlla dina leen àtte, te àtteem jub na.
2But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.
3 Yaw nag miy àtte ñiy def loolu, te di ko def, ndax defe nga ne, dinga rëcc ci àtteb Yàlla?
3And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
4 Ndax dangaa xeeb mbaaxu Yàlla, mi yéex a mer te di la muñal? Xanaa xamuloo ne, Yàllaa ngi lay won baaxaayam, ngir nga réccu say bàkkaar?
4Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
5 Waaye ndegam dëgër nga bopp te bëgguloo réccu, yaa ngi dajale merum Yàlla ci sa bopp. Ndaxte Yàlla sàkk na bés bu muy wone àtteem bu jub bi te meram wàcc ci ñi bon;
5But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6 bés booba dina delloo ku nekk ay jëfam.
6Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
7 Ñiy góor-góorlu ciy def lu baax, bëgg Yàlla boole leen ca ndamam te sédde leen ngërëm ak dund gu sax, dina leen tàbbal ci dund gu dul jeex.
7To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8 Waaye ñi dëgër bopp, ba tanqamlu dëgg, di topp lu jubadi, seen pey mooy dooni merum Yàlla ak toroxte.
8But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9 Ki doon def lu bon, peyam mooy tiis ak metit wu tar, muy Yawut ci bu jëkk, mbaa ki dul Yawut.
9Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
10 Waaye ki doon def lu baax, añam mooy bokk ci ndamu Yàlla, am ngërëm ak jàmm, muy Yawut ci bu jëkk, mbaa ki dul Yawut.
10But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11 Ndaxte ñépp a yem fa kanam Yàlla.
11For there is no respect of persons with God.
12 Képp ku doon bàkkaar nag te nekkuloo woon ci yoonu Musaa, Yàlla dina la àtte ci lu dul yoonu Musaa, nga door a sànku. Te képp ku doon bàkkaar te nga nekkoon ci yoonu Musaa, Yàlla dina la àtte ci yoon woowu.
12For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
13 Kon déglu yoonu Musaa rekk doyul; du loolu mooy tax nit jub ci kanam Yàlla; kiy sàmm yoon wi, moom la Yàlla di àtte ni ku jub.
13(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14 Ndax ñi dul Yawut te nekkuñu ci yoonu Musaa, ñu ngiy def li yoon woowu tëral, ndaxte Yàlla def na ko ci nit. Te wonee nañu noonu ne, man nañoo ràññee lu baax ak lu bon, su ñu nekkul sax ci yoonu Musaa,
14For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 di wone it ne, Yàlla bind na ci seen xol jëf yi yoonu Musaa santaane. Seen xel it seede na ne noonu la, fekk seeni xalaat ñoo leen di tuumaal, mbaa ñu leen di jéggal.
15Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16 Ndax bés dina ñëw, bu xalaat yu làqu yi di feeñ, te Yàlla àtte nit ñi jaarale ko ci Yeesu Kirist. Xebaar bu baax, bi may waare, moo ko wax.
16In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
17 Maa ngi ñëw nag ci yaw mi ne Yawut nga; yaa ngi sukkandiku ci yoonu Musaa ak di damu ci Yàlla.
17Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,
18 Xam nga coobareem, ndaxte jàng nga ci yoonu Musaa, ba fonk yëf yi gën a baax.
18And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
19 Yaa ngi teg sa bopp wommatkatu gumba yi ak leeru ñi nekk cig lëndëm.
19And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
20 Yaa di jàngalekatu ñi jàngul ak xamlekatu ñi xamul, ndaxte xalaat nga ne, Yàlla jagleel na leen ci yoonu Musaa bépp xam-xam ak gépp dëgg.
20An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
21 Kon nag yaw miy jàngal say moroom, xanaa doo jàngal sa bopp? Yaw miy waare di tere sàcc, mbaa doo sàcc yaw itam? Yaw miy tere njaaloo, mbaa doo njaaloo?
21Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
22 Yaw miy araamal xërëm yi, mbaa doo sàcc li nekk ci seeni xàmb?
22Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
23 Yaw miy damoo yoonu Musaa, mbaa doo ko moy, ba indi gàcce ci turu Yàlla?
23Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
24 Moo tax Mbind mi ne: «Yéena tax ñi nekkul Yawut di suufeel turu Yàlla.»
24For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
25 Bëggoon naa ngeen xam ne, xaraf am na njariñ, boo ca boolee sàmm yoon. Waaye boo ko ca boolewul, sa xaraf amatul njariñ.
25For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.
26 Te itam ku xaraful, tey def jëf yu jub yi yoonu Musaa santaane, ndax Yàlla du ko teg ni ku xaraf?
26Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
27 Ku dul Yawut te xaraful waaye di sàmm yoon wi, kooku dina la man a àtte yaw Yawut bi. Ndaxte li ngay xam-xam yoonu Musaa ci Mbind mi te xaraf, terewul nga koy moy.
27And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?
28 Juddu nekk Yawut taxul sag Yawut dëggu, te xaraf ci saw yaram taxul sa xaraf wóor.
28For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 Waaye Yawut dëgg, ci xol lay nekk. Te xaraf dëgg itam, ci xol lay nekk. Du ngistal, lu dëggu la. Te képp ku mel noonu, dees na la gërëm, waxumala nit ñi, waaye Yàlla ci boppam.
29But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
