Bawlos Waa U Tiraanyooday Reer Binu Israa'iil Rumaysaddarradooda
9 Runtaan ku sheegayaa Masiixa, oo been sheegi maayo, qalbigayguna marag buu iigu furayaa Ruuxa Quduuskaa 2 in caloolxumo weyn iyo xanuun aan joogsanaynin ay ku jiraan qalbigayga. 3 Waayo, waxaan jeclaan lahaa inaan aniga qudhaydu ka inkaarnaado Masiixa walaalahay aawadood oo ah xigaalkayga aannu isku jidhka nahay, 4 kuwa ah reer binu Israa'iil, oo leh carruur-ka-dhigidda, iyo ammaanta, iyo axdiyada, iyo sharciga siintiisa, iyo u-adeegidda Ilaah, iyo ballamada, 5 kuwa awowayaasha leh, oo xagga jidhka Masiixu ka yimid iyaga, kan wax walba ka sarreeya oo ah Ilaah ammaanta leh weligiis. Aamiin.
Ilaah Ballamadiisii Ma Uu Beenayn
6 Laakiin mana aha sidii iyadoo ereygii Ilaah dhacay. Waayo, kuwa Israa'iil ka dhashay kulligood reer binu Israa'iil ma wada aha. 7 Farcankii Ibraahim oo ay yihiin aawadeed kulligood carruur kuma wada aha, laakiin waxaa la yidhi, Kuwa Isxaaq ka farcama ayaa farcankaaga loogu yeedhi doonaa. 8 Taas waxaa weeyaan, inaan carruurta jidhku ahayn carruurta Ilaah, laakiin carruurtii loo ballanqaaday ayaa farcan lagu tiriyaa. 9 Waayo, kanu waa hadal ballan ah, Wakhtigan oo kale ayaan kuu iman doonaa, oo Saarah waxay dhali doontaa wiil. 10 Oo taas oo keliyana ma ahee, laakiin Rebeqahna mid bay u uuraysatay, kaas oo ahaa aabbeheen Isxaaq. 11 Waayo, carruurta oo aan weli dhalan oo aan weli samayn wanaag iyo xumaan midna, in qasdiga Ilaah doorashada ku istaago, oo uusan ahaan xagga shuqullada, laakiin xagga kii dadka u yeedha, 12 waxaa iyada lagu yidhi, Kan weynu wuxuu u adeegi doonaa kan ka yar. 13 Sida qoran, Yacquub waan jeclaaday, Ceesawse waan necbaaday.
Ilaah Xaqdarro Ma Leh
14 Maxaan nidhaahnaa haddaba? Ma xaqdarro baa Ilaah la jirta? Ma suurtowdo! 15 Waayo, wuxuu Muuse ku yidhi, Waan u naxariisan doonaa kii aan u naxariisto, waanan u nixi doonaa, kii aan u naxo. 16 Sidaas daraaddeed xagga kan doonaya ma aha, xagga kan ordana ma aha, laakiinse waa xagga Ilaaha naxariista leh. 17 Waayo, Qorniinku wuxuu Fircoon ku leeyahay, Tan daraaddeed baan kuu sara kiciyey inaan xooggayga adiga kaa dhex muujiyo iyo in magacayga dhulka oo dhan lagu faafiyo. 18 Haddaba kuu doonayo wuu u naxariistaa, kuu doonayona qalbigiisuu engejiyaa.
Ilaah Baa Xukunka Leh
19 Waxaad igu odhan doontaa, Muxuu weli ii eedaynayaa? Waayo, yaa doonistiisa ka gees noqda? 20 Laakiinse, nin yahow, kumaad tahay kaaga Ilaah u jawaabayow? Wixii la sameeyey miyey kii sameeyey ku odhan doonaan, Maaxad sidan noogu samaysay? 21 Dheriyasameeyuhu miyuusan lahayn amar uu ugu taliyo dhoobada inuu fud keliya in ka sameeyo weel cisa leh, inta kalena mid aan cisa lahayn? 22 Bal maxay la tahay Ilaah haddii, isagoo doonaya inuu cadhadiisa muujiyo oo xooggiisa dadka ogeysiiyo, uu samir badan ugu dulqaatay weelasha cadhada oo loo diyaariyey baabbi'idda, 23 iyo inuu hodantinimadii ammaantiisa ogeysiiyo weelasha naxariista oo uu hore ugu diyaariyey ammaanta, 24 xataa kuweenna uu u yeedhay oo uusan uga yeedhin Yuhuudda oo keliya laakiinse uu uga yeedhay quruumaha kalena? 25 Siduu Hooseeca ka dhex yidhi,
Kuwo aan dadkaygii ahayn ayaan u bixin doonaa, Dadkayga,
Tu aan ahayn gacalisadaydiina waxaan u bixin doonaa, Gacaliso.
26 Oo waxay noqon doontaa, meeshii laga yidhi iyaga, Dadkayga ma ihidin,
Meeshaas waxaa looga bixin doonaa, Carruurtii Ilaaha nool.
27 Oo Isayos wuxuu ku qayliyey wax Israa'iil ku saabsan isagoo leh, In kastoo tirada reer binu Israa'iil noqoto sida cammuudda badda, intii hadhay waa badbaadi doontaa, 28 waayo, Rabbigu hadalkiisa dhulkuu ku samayn doonaa, isagoo dhammaystiraya oo soo gaabinaya, 29 oo sidii Isayos hore u yidhi,
Haddaan Rabbigii Saba'ood farcan inoo reebin,
Sidii Sodom baan noqon lahayn, oo sidii Gomora baa laynaga dhigi lahaa.
Waxa Reer Binu Israa'iil U Xumaadeen
30 Maxaan nidhaahnaa haddaba? Dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn oo aan xaqnimada raacin, waxay heleen xaqnimada, oo ah xaqnimada rumaysad lagu helo; 31 laakiin reer binu Israa'iil iyagoo raaca sharciga xaqnimada, sharcigaas ma ay gaadhin. 32 Tan sababteedu waa maxay? Maxaa yeelay, rumaysad kuma ay doondoonin, shuqullada samayntooda mooyaane. Waxay ku turunturoodeen dhagaxii turunturada; 33 sida qoran,
Bal eega, waxaan Siyoon dhex dhigayaa dhagax lagu turunturoodo oo ah sallax lagu xumaado;
Oo kii rumaysta isaga ma ceeboobi doono.
Romans 9
King James Version
9 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
4 Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.
9 For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.
10 And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac;
11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
14 What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.
15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.
19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
22 What if God, willing to shew his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.
26 And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people; there shall they be called the children of the living God.
27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:
28 For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.
29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
31 But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Romans 9
English Standard Version
God's Sovereign Choice
9 (A)I am speaking the truth in Christ—I am not lying; my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit— 2 that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. 3 For (B)I could wish that I myself were (C)accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers,[a] my kinsmen (D)according to the flesh. 4 They are (E)Israelites, and to them belong (F)the adoption, (G)the glory, (H)the covenants, (I)the giving of the law, (J)the worship, and (K)the promises. 5 To them belong (L)the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, (M)who is God over all, (N)blessed forever. Amen.
6 But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, 7 and not all are children of Abraham (O)because they are his offspring, but (P)“Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.” 8 This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but (Q)the children of the promise are counted as offspring. 9 For this is what the promise said: (R)“About this time next year I will return, and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 And not only so, but (S)also when Rebekah had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac, 11 though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad—in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of (T)him who calls— 12 she was told, (U)“The older will serve the younger.” 13 As it is written, (V)“Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
14 What shall we say then? (W)Is there injustice on God's part? By no means! 15 For he says to Moses, (X)“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” 16 So then it depends not on human will or exertion,[b] but on God, who has mercy. 17 For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, (Y)“For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.
19 You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For (Z)who can resist his will?” 20 But who are you, O man, (AA)to answer back to God? (AB)Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?” 21 (AC)Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump (AD)one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use? 22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience (AE)vessels of wrath (AF)prepared for destruction, 23 in order to make known (AG)the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he (AH)has prepared beforehand for glory— 24 even us whom he (AI)has called, (AJ)not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles? 25 As indeed he says in Hosea,
(AK)“Those who were not my people I will call ‘my people,’
and her who was not beloved I will call ‘beloved.’”
26 (AL)“And in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’
there they will be called (AM)‘sons of the living God.’”
27 And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: (AN)“Though the number of the sons of Israel[c] be as the sand of the sea, (AO)only a remnant of them will be saved, 28 for the Lord will carry out his sentence upon the earth fully and without delay.” 29 And as Isaiah predicted,
(AP)(AQ)“If the Lord of hosts had not left us offspring,
(AR)we would have been like Sodom
and become like Gomorrah.”
Israel's Unbelief
30 What shall we say, then? (AS)That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, (AT)a righteousness that is by faith; 31 but that Israel (AU)who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness[d] (AV)did not succeed in reaching that law. 32 Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the (AW)stumbling stone, 33 as it is written,
(AX)“Behold, I am laying in Zion (AY)a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense;
(AZ)and whoever believes in him will not be (BA)put to shame.”
