eng: Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

abt: Ani kundi ma vékungunék. Papukundiké ma jéraawu yangunék. Guna du nak anga wandu, “Yékunmba vékusékwutékwa. Akwi du wuna yé kavérék-ngandakwa.” Wunga wandu déku mawulé yékunmba katik téké dé.

eng: each man’s work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man’s work is.

abt: Kukmba Got, akwi du dakwana jémbaaké waké yandékwa sapak yaa pulak yaante deku jémbaa wakwasnyéndu, akwi du dakwa véte vékusék-ngandakwa deku jémbaaké. Miyéké ma vékulakangunék.

eng: According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.

eng: For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.

eng: Brothers, I couldn’t speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ.

Nané Gotna Yaamambi kuretékwa du dakwa Kraisale nakurakmawulé yate déku mawuléké wa vékuséknangwa.


eng: But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.

abt: Gotna Yaamambi kuretékwa du dakwa vékusék-ngandakwa. Kamu musé dé yéku musé? Kamu musé dé kapérandi musé? Yéku musé kapérandi muséké waak vékusékte bulkandakwa. Gotna Yaamambi kuretékapuk yakwa du dakwa de Gotna Yaamambi kuretékwa du dakwaké vékusékngé yapatindakwa.


eng: Now the natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him; and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

abt: Gotna Yaamambi kuretékapuk yakwa du dakwa Gotna Yaamambi wakwa kundi yamba vékundakwe wa. Yate anga wandakwa, “Wani kundi wan baka waangété kundi wa.” Wunga wate wa wani kundiké yamba yékunmba vékusékndakwe wa. Gotna Yaamambi kuretékwa du dakwa male wa Gotna Yaamambi wakwa kundiké yékunmba vékusék-ngandakwa.


eng: We also speak these things, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.

abt: Nané Got tiyaandéka kéraanangwa mawuléké wanangwa. Ani képmaana muséké vékukwa du wani kundi nanat yamba wandakwe wa. Gotna Yaamambi nanat wandéka wa gunat wanangwa. Nané Gotna Yaamambina kundi vékute déku Yaamambi kuretékwa du dakwat déku kundi wanangwa.


eng: But we received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.

abt: Nana mawulé ani képmaana muséké vékukwa duna mawulé pulak yamba téndékwe wa. Got wandéka déku Yaamambi nana mawulémba wa téndékwa, nané Got tiyaandékwa mawuléké yékunmba vékusék-nanénngé.


eng: For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except God’s Spirit.

abt: Nak du nak duna mawuléké katik vékusékngé dé. Wani du dékét déku kapmang déku mawuléké wa vékusékndékwa. Wungat male wa. Nak du Gotna mawuléké katik vékusékngé dé. Gotna Yaamambi dékét déku kapmang wa Gotna mawuléké vékusék-ndékwa.


eng: But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

abt: Got wandéka déku Yaamambi nané Krais Jisasna jémbaamba yaalan du dakwat tépékaaké yanangwa muséké wa wakwasnyéndén. Gotna Yaamambi dé akwi muséké wa vékusékndékwa. Got paakundén mawuléké waak Gotna Yaamambi wa vékusékndékwa.


eng: But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”

abt: Talimba Gotna du nak Gotna nyéngaamba anga viyaatakandén: Got kamu musé dé yak, déké néma mawulé yakwa du dakwa dale apapu apapu yékunmba tépékaa-ndarénngé? Du dakwa yamba véndakwe wa. Yamba vékundakwe wa. Deku mawulémba vékulakate wa de yamba vékusékndakwe wa wani muséké. Wunga viyaatakandén musé, Got paakwan muséké wa wawutékwa.


eng: which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory.

abt: Ani képmaamba tékwa néma dunyansé, Got paakwan kundiké yamba vékusékndakwe wa. De vékusékmunaandaru, wa akwi néma duwat taalékéran baan nana Néman Duwat takwemimba katik viyaae baang-ngatik daré.


eng: But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory,

abt: Wuné Got paakwan kundi wa wawutékwa. Got déku kundi ras wa paakundén, ani képmaamba tékwa baka du dakwa vékusék-ngapuk yamuké. Talimba Got ani képmaa yakapuk yaréte wa wandén, nané paakundén kundiké yékunmba vékusékte kulémawulé kéraae yékunmba tépékaa-nanénngé.


eng: We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this world nor of the rulers of this world who are coming to nothing.

abt: Gotna kundiké yékunmba vékusékngwa du dakwat wa nak kundi wawutékwa. Gotna apakundiké wa wawutékwa, de ras waak yékunmba vékusékndarénngé. Det wawutékwa kundi wan ani képmaana muséké vékusékngwa du wakwa kundi pulak yamba wa. Wan ani képmaaké yékunmba vérékwa néma du wakwa kundi pulak yamba wa. Wani du bari kiyaandaru nak du deku kundi katik vékuké daré.


eng: that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

abt: Anga wakangunéngwa, “Nyaangét vékupukaakwa duna kundi vékute yamba vékuséknangwe wa. Got apamama yandéka wa vékusék-nangwa. Krais takwemimba wa kiyaandén nanéké. Yi wan wanana wa.” Wunga wangunénngé wa wani kundi wawutén.


eng: My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

abt: Yate apakundiké vékusékngwa du yékunmba wandakwa pulak yamba wawutékwe wa. Wuné wawutéka Gotna Yaamambi Gotna mayé apat wa gunat wakwasnyéndén.


eng: I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.

abt: Wunga watake, gunale yaréwutén sapak, Jisas Kraisna jémbaa sépélak yamuké wup yawutén. Apa yamba yawutékwe wa.


eng: For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

abt: Wuna mawulémba anga wawutén, “Wuné gunale yaréte nak muséké katik vékulakaké wuté. Jisas Kraiské male vékulaka-kawutékwa. Takwemimba kiyaandénngé vékulakate wakawutékwa.”


eng: that, as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”

abt: Krais Jisas wunga yandénngé wuné Gotna nyéngaamba kwaakwa kundi nak gunat wawutékwa: “Du dakwa duna yé kavérékngé mawulé yate nana Néman Duna yé ma kavérékndarék.” Naawutékwa.


eng: Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

abt: Got wandéka wa Krais Jisasale nakurakmawulé yaténgunéngwa. Krais Jisas kiyaandéka nané déku jémbaamba yaale yéku mawulé kéraae Gotna jémbaa, Gorké waak wa yékunmba vékuséknangwa. Krais Jisas kiyaandéka Got nanat véte anga wandékwa, “De yéku yapaté yakwa du dakwa wa. Wuna du dakwa wa téndakwa.” Naandékwa. Krais Jisas nané Satanna taambamba kéraatakandéka wa Kraisale yékunmba yaténangwa.


eng: that no flesh should boast before God.

abt: Akwi du dakwa Gotna ménimba téte deku yé kavérékngapuk yamuké, wa Got wunga yandén.


eng: God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that don’t exist, that he might bring to nothing the things that exist,

abt: Baka du dakwa gunéké anga wandarén, “Wan néma du dakwa yamba yé wa. Wan baka du dakwa wa. Deké katik vékulakaké nané.” Naandarén. Wunga wandaka wa Got wakandéngndén, guné déku jémbaamba yaalangunénngé. Got gunat wunga wakandéngndén, wan ani képmaana néma du dakwa deku yé kavérékngapuk yate nékéti yamuké wa.


eng: but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world that he might put to shame the things that are strong.

abt: Wani sapak de baka du dakwa gunéké anga wandarén, “Wan nyaangét vékupukaakapuk yakwa du dakwa wa.” Naandarén. Wunga wandaka Got wa wakandéngndén, guné déku jémbaamba yaalangunénngé. Got gunat wunga wakandéngndén ani képmaana muséké vékusékngwa du dakwa deku yé kavérékngapuk yate nékéti yamuké wa. Wani sapak baka du dakwa gunéké anga wandarén, “Wan apamama yakapuk yakwa du dakwa wa.” Naandarén. Wunga wandaka wa Got wakandéngndén, guné déku jémbaamba yaalangunénngé. Got gunat wunga wakandéngndén, wan apa yakwa du dakwa deku yé kavérékngapuk yandarénngé wa.


eng: For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

abt: Wuna du dakwa, ma vékulakangunék. Vékulakate wuna kundiké wakangunéngwa, “Yi wan wanana wa.” Déku jémbaamba yaalangunénngé Got gunat wandén sapak, guné baka du dakwana ménimba yénga pulak guné tak? Guna du dakwa ayélapkéri male nyaangét ayélapkéri-sékéyak vékupukaandarén. Guna du dakwa ayélapkéri male wal apamama yandarén. Guna du dakwa ayélapkéri male wal néma du dakwa téndarén.


eng: because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

abt: Got wandéka Krais takwemimba kiyaandéka de déku kundi vékukapuk yakwa du dakwa wa anga wandakwa, “Got apamama yamba yandékwe wa.” Wunga wate Gotna mayé apaké yamba vékusékndakwe wa. Gotna mayé apa wa akwi duna mayé apat taalékéran. Baka du dakwa Gotna mawuléké anga wandakwa, “Déku mawulé waangété mawulé wa.” Wunga wate Gotna mawuléké yamba vékusékndakwe wa. Gotna yéku mawulé wa akwi duna mawulat taalékéran.


eng: but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;

abt: Nané Judasé ras, nak gaayé du dakwa ras Got nanat wandéka vékute wa vékuséknangwa. Krais takwemimba kiyaae wa Gotna mayé apa, Gotna yéku mawulé waak nanat wakwasnyéndén. Krais takwemimba kiyaandén kundiké wa mawulé yanangwa.


eng: For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

abt: Juda du dakwa Grik du dakwa waak wunga wandakwa. Judasé ras wa wakwa, “Got kulé apanjémba yandu nané véte vékusék-nganangwa. Krais wan nanat yékun yandénngé Got wan du wa. Got wunga yandu, wa nané wani kundi yékunmba vékukanangwa.” Wunga wandaka Grik du dakwa, nak gaayémba yaan nak du dakwa waak de ras wa anga wandakwa, “Taale yékunmba vékusék-nganangwa. Déku kundi yékun yandékwanngé vékusékte, wa wani kundi yékunmba vékukanangwa.” Naandakwa.


eng: For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

abt: Got akwi muséké vékusékte wandéka ani képmaana muséké vékusékngwa du deku mawulémba déké vékusékngé yapatindarén. Du dakwa déké vékusékndarénngé wa Got mawulé yandén. Yate déku nyaanét wandéka gaaye déku jémbaa wa wakwasnyéndén. Got wandéka nané déku nyaanngé kundi kwayénanga Gotna kundi yékunmba vékukwa du dakwa kulémawulé wa kéraandakwa. Kéraae apapu apapu yékunmba tépékaa-kandakwa. Nané Gotna nyaanngé kundi kwayénanga ani képmaana muséké vékusékngwa du wa anga wandakwa, “Wan waangété kundi wa.” Naandakwa.


eng: Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

abt: Got wunga wandéka ani képmaana muséké vékusékngwa duna mawulé wa yékéyaak yan. Nyaangét vékupukaakwa duna mawulé yénga pulak dé? Apakundiké vékusékngwa duna mawulé yénga pulak dé? Ani sapakmba yatéte némaamba kundi bulkwa duna mawulé yénga pulak dé? Gotna ménimba ayélapkéri-sékéyak male wa vékusékndarén.


eng: For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”

abt: Wani muséké Got wandéka déku kundi déku nyéngaamba anga wa kwaakwa: Nyaangét vékupukaakwa duna mawulé yaavan kurkawutékwa. Apakundiké vékusékngwa duna mawuléké kuk kwayékawutékwa.


eng: For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

abt: Gorké yénangwa yaambumba yékapuk yakwa du dakwa wa anga wakwa, “Krais takwemimba kiyaandén kundi wan waangété kundi wa.” Nané Gorké yénangwa yaambumba yékwa du dakwa anga wanangwa, “Krais takwemimba kiyaandén kundi wan yéku kundi wa. Krais takwemimba kiyaae wa Gotna mayé apa nanat wakwasnyéndén.” Naanangwa.


eng: For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

abt: Wuné yeyé yaayate du dakwat Kraisna yémba baptais kwayéwuténngé, Krais yamba wunat wandékwe wa. Wuné yeyé yaayate déku yéku kundi kwayéwuténngé, wa wunat wandén. Nyaangét vékupukaakwa du wakwa pulak yamba wawutékwe wa. Nyaangét vékupukaakapuk yakwa du wandakwa pulak wa kundi kwayéwutékwa. Nyaangét pukaakwa du pulak wamunaawutu, anga wakatik guné, “Dé némaamba yéku kundiké vékusékte wa wandékwa. Nyaangét vékupukaakwa du wa dé.” Wunga wamunaae wa guné Kraiské vékulakakapuk yate wunéké male vékulakakatik guné. Krais gunéké takwemimba kiyaandénngé vékulaka-ngunénngé wa mawulé yawutékwa. Yate nyaangét vékupukaakapuk yakwa du wakwa pulak wa kundi kwayéwutékwa.


eng: (I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptized any other.)

abt: Yi, bulaa vékulakawutékwa. Stefanas déku kémét waak wa Krais Jisasna yémba baptais kwayéwutén. Yate nakét waak wuné déku yémba baptais kwayék kapuk? Wani muséké yamba vékusékwutékwe wa.

De kéga wamuké kélik wuné yo, “Pol derét gu yaakutaknadék de déku du taakwa de ro.” De waga wamuké kélik yate wuné walkamu duwat male Krais Jisasna yéba gu yaakutaknawurénké, wuné Gotké yéknwun mawulé yate déku yéba kevéréknu.


eng: so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.

abt: Guné wuna yémba baptais kéraangunénngé, katik waké daré.


abt: Guné wuna yéba gu yaakugunénké, wamarék yaké de yo.


eng: Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?

abt: Krais yaae nakurak kundi male wa wandén. Guné wunga waarute ani kundi pulak guna mawulémba anga wangunéngwa, “Krais késpulak nakpulak kundi wa wandén.” Naangunéngwa. Wunga wate wa kapérandi yapaté wa yangunéngwa. Guné ras wa wakwa, “Nané Polna du dakwa a.” Kamuké guné wunga wo? Wa Krais takwemimba kiyaae gunat wa yékun yandén. Wuné yamba wa.

Yate wuna du dakwa yamba téngunéngwe wa.


eng: Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

abt: Wuné ani kundiké wawutékwa. Guné akwi nak nak késpulak nakpulak kundi bulngunéngwa. Bulte guné ras anga wangunéngwa, “Nané Polna du dakwa a.” Ras wa wakwa, “Nané Apolosna du dakwa a.” Ras wa wakwa, “Nané Pitana du dakwa a.” Ras wa wakwa, “Nané Kraisna du dakwa a.”


eng: God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

abt: Got gunat wa wandén, guné déku nyaan nana Néman Du Jisas Kraisna jémbaamba yaale dale nakurakmawulé yaténgunénngé. Got gunat talimba watake, guna mawulé yékunmba téndu yéku yapaté male yangunénngé, gunéké vérépékaa-kandékwa. Gunat katik yaasékaké dé. Yi wan wanana wa.


eng: who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

abt: Nana Néman Du Jisas Krais gunéké véndu guna mawulé apa ye yékunmba tépékaa-kandékwa. Tépékaandu waambule yaaké yandékwa nyaa guné Gotna ménimba yéku yapaté yakwa du dakwa wa tékangunéngwa.

abt: Got akwi yéku mawulé gunat wa kwayéndén. Kwayéndéka guné nana Néman Du Jisas Krais yaaké yandékwanngé kaavéréte yékunmba téngunéngwa.

eng: God is really great and powerful, so everybody has to tell him that he is good. He can make you strong. This is his message. It is the good news about Jesus Christ. A long time ago, God planned to get both the Jewish people, and the people that are not Jews, to believe in him. But at first he kept it a secret, and he just got the Jewish people to follow him. After that, he got his men to write about it ahead of time, and their words are in his book. Now his message about Jesus is for every nation. It is not just for the Jewish people, but everybody everywhere can trust him, and they can listen to him and do what he wants. God is the only one that can think good enough to make it all work out like that. So everybody has to tell God and Jesus Christ, “You are great.” They have always got to do that for ever. From Paul

Deké vékulakate wani yapaté yakapuk yamunaananu, wan yékun wa.” Naate, wunga wate wani yapaté yakapuk yamunaangunu, wan yékun wa.


eng: Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.

abt: Wawutén kundiké vékulakate guné guna du dakwale kurkale ma téngunék. Téte deku mawulé yékun yangunu de guna mawulé yékun yakandakwa.

Yaae wandu de Jekopna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu Gotna kundiké nakapuk kuk katik kwayéké daré.


eng: For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

abt: Guné nak gaayé du dakwa, guné baangmba tékwa miyéna gaalé satékndén gaalé pulak wa yaténgunén. Wunga yaténgunénga, Got nak pulak jémbaa yate wani gaalé yaawimba tékwa miyémba taakatake baangwit gitakandéka wani miyémba wa kurkale téngunéngwa.

Got Israel du dakwa déku kémba nakapuk taakaké mawulé yate, wunga yaké wa apamama yandékwa. Yandéka wa wawutékwa.


eng: They also, if they don’t continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

abt: Israel du dakwa Gorké nakapuk yékunmba vékulakandaru, wa Got det nakapuk déku kémba taakaké apamama yandékwa, du satékndén gaalé nak miyémba nakapuk taakandu yékunmba téndénngé apamama yandékwa pulak.


eng: See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.

abt: Got wunga yandénngé vékulakate anga vékuséknangwa. Dé du dakwa raské wa sémbéraa yandékwa. Du dakwa rasét wa rakarka yandékwa.

Guné déké yékunmba vékulaka-pékakapuk yamunaae, wa satéke vaanjandandén gaalé pulak wa tékangunéngwa.


eng: for if God didn’t spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

abt: Waga wate guné adél kudi guné wo. Kéni muké wawo sanévéknwuké guné yo. Got wani migalé dé kérépaknék, kapéredi yadén bege. Isrelna du taakwa de kéni kapéredi mu de yak.

eng: You will say then, “Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.”

abt: Guné taakandén gaalé pulak téte kalmu anga waké guné? “Got talimba tan gaalé wa satékndén, nané deku taalé kéraananénngé.”


eng: don’t boast over the branches. But if you boast, remember that it is not you who support the root, but the root supports you.

abt: Kwayéndékwanngé, guné nak gaayé du dakwa anga waké yambak, “Nané néma du dakwa rate Israel du dakwat wa taalékérananén. De Got satéke vaanjandandén gaalé pulak téte gandéndu gandéndakwa wa téndakwa.” Wunga waké yambak. Guné gaalé pulak téte det mayé apa kwayékapuk yangunénga, Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu miyé méngi pulak téte gunat wa mayé apa kwayéndakwa.


eng: But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the root and of the richness of the olive tree,

abt: Israel du dakwa wan yaawimba taawundakwa miyé pulak wa. Wani miyéna yé oliv. Guné nak gaayé du dakwa, guné baangmba baka wure waare tékwa miyé pulak wa.

Yate gunat mayé apa wa kwayéndékwa.


eng: If the first fruit is holy, so is the lump. If the root is holy, so are the branches.

abt: Ani kundiké ma vékulakangunék. Guné kulé kakému kéraae, guné taale kéraangunén kakému raské, “Gotna kakému wa,” naate, wa Gorké kwayéngunéngwa.

Deku gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu talimba déku du dakwa wa téndarén.


eng: For if the rejection of them is the reconciling of the world, what would their acceptance be, but life from the dead?

abt: Bulaa Got Israel du dakwaké kalik yate nak gaayé du dakwat wa yékun yandékwa, de dale nakurakmawulé yate déku du dakwa téndarénngé. Kukmba Israel du dakwa Kraiské yékunmba vékulakate, Gorké yénangwa yaambumba nakapuk yéndaru, Got wandu de kiyaae taamale waarapén du dakwa pulak téte, yékunmba yatékandakwa.


eng: if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh, and may save some of them.

abt: Guné Romba rakwa du taakwa las, guné Isrelna du taakwa kaapuk ragunékwa. Guné nak gena du taakwa guné ro. Bulaa guné nak gena du taakwa, gunat kudi las wakweké wunék.

Wuné nak gena du taakwat Krais Jisasna kudi wakwewuru, de déké miték sanévéknwudo Got derét kutkalé yadu, sal de las wuna kémna du Isrel, Got nak gena du taakwat kutkalé yate derét kutkalé yamarék yadékwaké rékaréka yate, de wawo Krais Jisaské miték sanévéknwute, Gotké yénakwa yaabuba yéké de yo?” Naate wate apat kapére yate Krais Jisasna kudi wuné gunat wakweyo.


eng: Now if their fall is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!

abt: Bulaa ma vékulakangunék. Israel du dakwa kapérandi yapaté yate Kraiské kuk kwayéndaka, wa Got nak gaayé du dakwat yékun yandékwa. Akwi Israel du dakwa kukmba Kraiské yékunmba vékulakandaru Got déku du dakwa nanat akwi yékun yate nanat yékunmbaa-sékéyak yakandékwa.


eng: I ask then, did they stumble that they might fall? May it never be! But by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy.

abt: Wani du dakwaké kalmu anga waké guné? “De Gorké yékunmba vékulaka-kapuk yate, Kraiské kuk kwayéte, Gorké yénangwa yaambu yaasékatake, lambiyakngé daré kapuk?” Wunga wangunu wakawutékwa: Yamba yé wa. Wunga waké yambak. Israel du dakwa Gorké yékunmba vékulaka-kapuk yandaka, Got déku mawulémba vékute wa nak gaayé du dakwat baka yékun yate, det Satanna taambamba kéraandékwa. Kéraae déké yénangwa yaambumba det kure yéndékwa. Israel du dakwa wani musé véte, Got nak gaayé du dakwat yékun yate det yékun yakapuk yandékwanngé rakarka yate, de waak Gorké yénangwa yaambumba yéké mawulé yandarénngé, wa Got nak gaayé du dakwat wunga yékun yandékwa.


eng: Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see. Always keep their backs bent.”

abt: Got wandu de méni kiyaan du pulak yarékandakwa. Dé wandu de néma musé yaate vaak yandéka kwaatambe yékwaakwa du pulak, néma jémbaa yatépéka-kandakwa. Wunga waatakuwutékwa dat. Wunga wate wa Krais Jisaské kuk kwayékwa du dakwaké wa wandén.


eng: David says, “Let their table be made a snare, a trap, a stumbling block, and a retribution to them.

abt: Devit waak talimba deké wa anga wandén: De deku muséké male vékulakate némaamba paat yate wa sépélak aapélak kandakwa. Yandakwanngé vékulakate Gorét waatakuwutékwa, kwaami képmaa kwaawumba daawulindéka viyaandakwa pulak, det bari viyaandénngé. Wunga viyaate yandarén kapérandi musé wa det waambule yakata-kandékwa.


eng: According as it is written, “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, to this very day.”

abt: Wani yapatéké vékusékngapuk yan du dakwaké ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Got wandéka de kurkale vékapuk yate yékunmba vékukapuk yandaka deku mawulé wa yékéyaak yawuran. Talimba wunga yare, bulaa waak wunga yaréte, yamba yékunmba vékulakandakwe wa.


eng: What then? That which Israel seeks for, that he didn’t obtain, but the chosen ones obtained it, and the rest were hardened.

abt: Bulaa ma vékulakangunék. Israel du dakwa némaamba, Gotna ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa téké mawulé yate, wa wani yapatéké yamba vékusékndakwe wa. Déku du dakwa téndarénngé Got wan du dakwa, de male wunga téké yandakwa yapatéké wa vékusékndarén. Tambék male wa vékusékén.


eng: And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

abt: Got wani du dakwat wunga wate yandarén yéku muséké yamba vékulakandékwe wa. Dé wani du dakwat wunga wate déku mawulémba vékute wa det baka yékun yandén. Got yananén yéku musé vétake, nané déku du dakwa ténanénngé nanat wamunaandu, wa anga wakatik nané, “Yananén yéku musé wa waambule kaatandékwa.” Naakatik nané. Wunga wananu, dé yananén yéku musé waambule yakatamunaandu, anga katik waké nané, “Dé nanat baka wa yékun yandékwa.” Wunga katik waké nané. Yananén yéku muséké vékulakakapuk yate wa nanat baka yékun yandékwa. Yi wan wanana wa.


eng: Even so too at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

abt: Wunga wandéka anga vékuséknangwa. Wani sapak tambék du dakwa wa Gotna du dakwa téndarén. Bulaa waak tambék du dakwa wa Gotna du dakwa tékwa. Got det yandarén musé waambule yakatakapuk yate det baka yékun yate, déku jémbaamba yaalandarénngé det wandéka, wa déku du dakwa téndakwa.


eng: But how does God answer him? “I have reserved for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”

abt: Wunga wandéka Got déku kundi waambule kaatate anga wandén, “Méné male wuna du yamba yé wa. Du rasét (7000) waak wawutéka de waak wuna dunyansé wa téndakwa. Téte wani papungot déku yé Bal, déké yamba kwaati séte waatakundakwe wa dat.” Naandén.


eng: “Lord, they have killed your prophets. They have broken down your altars. I am left alone, and they seek my life.”

abt: Israel du dakwat waarute Gorét anga wandén: “Wuna Néman Du, de ména yémba kundi kwayétan dunyansat wa viyaandékndarén. Yate ménéké kwaami viyaae tuwe kwayénangwa jaambé wa yaavan kutndarén. Yandaka wuné male ména du a téwutékwa. Téwutéka wunat viyaandékngé wa waakndakwa.” Naandén Elaija.


eng: God didn’t reject his people, whom he foreknew. Or don’t you know what the Scripture says about Elijah? How he pleads with God against Israel:

abt: Talimba Got wa nané Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamat wandén, de déku du dakwa téndarénngé. Watake nané déku du dakwaké kuk yamba kwayéndékwe wa. Anga vékusék-ngunéngwa. Talimba Gotna yémba kundi kwayétan du nak Elaija Gorét wandéka déku kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa.


eng: I ask then, did God reject his people? May it never be! For I also am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

abt: Wani kundi vékutake yénga guné wo? Kalmu anga waké guné? “Got déku du dakwa Israelséké dé kuk kwayék kapuk?” Yamba yé wa. Wunga waké yambak. Wuné waak wuné Israel du a. Abraham wan wuna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu wa. Wuné Benjaminna kémba a téwutékwa.


eng: But about Israel he says, “All day long I stretched out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”

abt: Got wunga watake dé Israelséké anga wandén: “Akwi nyaa wa wuné det taambat yawutén, de wunéké yaae wuna kundi yékunmba vékundarénngé. Yawutéka wunéké kuk kwayétake wuna kundiké kalik yandakwa.” Naandén.


eng: Isaiah 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.”

abt: Kukmba Aisaia waak wanngé Gotna nyéngaamba wa viyaatakandén. Got wandéka wup yakapuk yate déku kundi anga viyaatakandén: Wunéké waakngapuk yan du dakwa wa wuné véndarén. Wunat waatakukapuk yan du dakwana ménimba téwutéka wa wuné véndarén.


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

abt: Kalmu anga waké guné? “Israel du dakwa Gotna kundi de vékwak kapuk?” Wunga wamunaangunu anga wakawutékwa: Yi wan wanana wa. Wa vékundarén. Vékundarénngé ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Gorké de akwi képmaamba tékwa du dakwat wa kundi kwayéndakwa. Apakmba tékwa du dakwat waak wa kundi kwayéndakwa. Kalmu anga waké guné? “Israelsé de Gotna kundi daré yékunmba vékusékék kapuk?” Wunga wamunaangunu, wa anga wakawutékwa: Talimba Got wandéka Moses wan kundiké ma vékulakangunék. Wani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba anga wa kwaakwa: Wuné wawutu guné Israelsé, “Baka du dakwa wa,” naangunéngwa du dakwaké, kapére mawulé vékukangunéngwa. Wa wuné det yékun yate, gunat yékun yamba yawutékwe wa. Wuné wawutu guné yékéyaakmba tékwa du dakwat rakarka yakangunéngwa.


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

abt: Wani kundi vékute anga vékuséknangwa. Du ras nak du dakwat Kraiské kundi kwayéndaru vékukandakwa. Vékute de ras déké yékunmba vékulakate déku kundiké, “Yi wan wanana wa,” naakandakwa.


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

abt: Israel du dakwa ayélapkéri male wa wani kundi vékundarén. Israel du dakwa némaamba yamba vékundakwe wa. Wani yapatéké Gotna yémba kundi kwayétan du Aisaia talimba Gotna nyéngaamba anga viyaatakandén: Néman Du, nané ména kundi du dakwat kwayénanga ayélapkéri male wa yékunmba vékundakwa.


eng: And 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!”

abt: Got Kraiské kundi wandarénngé wani duwat wakapuk yamunaandu, wa déké kundi katik waké daré. Wanngé ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Du dakwa yaae Gotna kundi wandakwa. Wan yéku yapaté wa yandakwa.


eng: For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

abt: Wanngé ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Néman Duwat waatakukwa akwi du dakwat dé Satanna taambamba kéraandu, wa de yékunmba yarépéka-kandakwa.


eng: For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.”

abt: Wanngé ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Déké yékunmba vékulakakwa du dakwa yéku mawulé vékute yékunmba yarékandakwa.


eng: For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation.

abt: Gotna yapaté vékusékte wa wani kundi wanangwa. Nané nana mawulémba Kraiské yékunmba vékulakate déku kundiké, “Yi wan wanana wa,” naananga, Got wandéka déku ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa ténangwa. Nak du dakwat anga wanangwa, “Jisas wan nana Néman Du wa.” Naanangwa. Wunga wananga Got nané Satanna taambamba kéraae kure yéndéka Gorké yénangwa yaambumba wa yéténangwa.


eng: that 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.

abt: Guné anga wamunaae, ‘Jisas Néman Du wa randékwa, akwi du dakwa, musé aséké waak.’ Wunga wate guna mawulémba anga wamunaangunu, ‘Krais kiyaandéka Got wandéka wa nakapuk taamale waarapndén. Yi wan wanana wa.’ Wunga wangunu, wa Got guné kéraakandékwa Satanna taambamba. Kéraae gunat yékun yakandékwa.”


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

abt: Nané Kraiské yékunmba vékulakate, Gotna ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa ténangwanngé, Gotna nyéngaamba ani kundi wa kwaakwa: Wani kundi guna mawulémba wa téndékwa. Wani muséké wa kundi kwayéngunéngwa. Wani kundi wan du dakwat kwayénangwa kundi wa. Anga wanangwa: “Guné Kraiské yékunmba vékulakate déku kundiké, ‘Yi wan wanana wa,’ ma naangunék.


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

abt: Waga wakwedéka bulaa Got dé wale miték rasaakunaran kulé yaabu dé naanat wakwatnyu. Naané déké miték sanévéknwute déku kudiké “Adél” naanaran, dé wadu, naané dé wale miték rasaakuké naané yo apuba apuba. Wani muké kéni kudi Gotna nyégaba dé kwao: Guné guna mawuléba kéni kudi wamarék yaké guné yo, “Dérét kure giyaaké kiyadé nyérét waaréké yo? Dérét kure yaalaké kiyadé kiyaan du taakwa rakwa taalat dawuliké yo?” Wani kudi wamarék yaké guné yo, Krais naanéké yaadén bege.


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

abt: Talimba Moses wa wandén, apakundi vékute wandékwa pulak yakwa du dakwaké. Wani du Gotna ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa téké yandakwanngé, anga wandén: “Akwi apakundi vékute wandékwa pulak yakwa du dakwa Gorale yékunmba yarépékakandakwa apapu apapu.” Naandén.


eng: For Christ is the fulfillment of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

abt: De Krais Jisaské yamba vékulakandakwe wa. Krais nanéké kiyaandénngé Moses wan apakundi nanéké apamama katik yaké dé. Nané Kraiské yékunmba vékulakate déku kundiké, “Yi wan wanana wa,” naananu, wa Got wandu, nané déku ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa tékanangwa.


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

abt: De Gorké yénangwa yaambuké vékusékmuké kalik yate, anga yamba wandakwe wa, “Got wandu nané déké ye déku ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa tékanangwa.” Wunga wakapuk yate Gorké yékunmba vékulakakapuk yate anga wandarén, “Nané nana kapmang apamama yate, Moses wan apakundi vékute wandékwa pulak yate, wa Gorké ye déku ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa tékanangwa.” Naandarén. Wunga wate wan sépélak wa yandakwa.


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

abt: Wuné deké vékusékte anga wawutékwa. De apa tapa yate Gotna jémbaa yaké néma mawulé yandakwa. Yate déké yénangwa yaambuké wa yékéyaak yandakwa.


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

abt: Krais Jisasna jémbaamba yaale wuna aanyé waayéka nyangengu pulak tékwa du dakwa, Got Israelsat yékun yandu de dale yékunmba yaréndarénngé, wa néma mawulé yawutékwa. Got wuna kém du dakwa Israelsat yékun yandénngé vékulaka vékulaka naate, wa dat apapu apapu waatakuwutékwa wani muséké.


eng: Why? Because they didn’t seek it by faith, but as it were by works of the law. They stumbled over the stumbling stone,

abt: Ma vékulakangunék. Yénga pulak yate daré Moses wan apakundi vékute, wandékwa pulak yaké daré yapatik? De anga yamba wandakwe wa, “Nané Gorké yékunmba vékulakananu, wa dé nanat yékun yandu, nané Moses wan apakundi yékunmba vékuké apamama yakanangwa.” Wunga wakapuk yate anga wandarén, “Nané apamama yate yéku musé yate, wa Moses wan apakundi yékunmba vékuké apamama yakanangwa.” Naandakwa. Wunga wate deku mayé apaké vékulakate Gorké yamba yékunmba vékulakandakwe wa. Wunga yate wa Krais Jisaské kuk kwayéndarén. Krais Jisas wan du dakwana maan vatémbondakwa matu pulak wa. Talimba Got kundi ras wani matuké wa wandén.


eng: What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn’t follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;

abt: Wunga wate ani muséké vékulakawutékwa. Nak gaayémba tékwa du dakwa ras Gotna ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa téké vékulakakapuk yate, wa Gorké yékunmba vékulakate déku kundiké, “Yi wan wanana wa,” naandarén. Naandaka Got deké anga wandén, “De wunga yatake wuna ménimba yéku musé yakwa du dakwa wa téndakwa.” Naandén.


eng: As Isaiah has said before, “Unless the Lord of Armies had left us a seed, we would have become like Sodom, and would have been made like Gomorrah.”

abt: Wunga viyaatakatake nak kundi waak Aisaia anga viyaatakandén: Apa tapa yakwa Néman Du Got nana du dakwa ras wayéka téndarénngé wakapuk yamunaandu, wa nané akwi Sodommba yatan du dakwa, Gomoramba yatan du dakwa yan pulak, nané kiyaasandakatik nané.


eng: for he will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth.”

abt: Déknyényba Gotna yéba kudi wakwen nak du Aisaia, Isrelna du taakwaké Gotna nyégaba dé kéga kavik: Kukba Némaan Ban Got kéni képmaaba apakélé kot véknwukwa némaan ban rate, du taakwana kudi véknwute, yadan kapéredi mu derét yakataké dé yo.

eng: “It will be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”

abt: Talimba du dakwa rasét anga wawutén, “Guné wuna du dakwa yamba wa.” Naawutén. Wunga wawutén taalémba wuné det anga wakawutékwa, “Wuné Got apapu apapu yarépékawutékwa. Guné wuna nyambalésé wa tékangunéngwa.” Naakawutékwa.


eng: As he says also in Hosea, “I will call them ‘my people,’ which were not my people; and her ‘beloved,’ who was not beloved.”

abt: Wanngé talimba Gotna yémba kundi kwayétan du nak déku yé Hosea Got wan kundi Gotna nyéngaamba anga wa viyaatakandén: Wuna kémba tékapuk yan du dakwat wawutu de wuna du dakwa tékandakwa.

eng: us, whom he also called, not from the Jews only, but also from the Gentiles?

eng: and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory—

abt: Got déku mawulé vékute, nak du dakwaké sémbéraa yate deké talimba wa wandén, de déké yéku yaambumba yéte, dale yékunmba yarépékate, nyaa véte kaalékwa pulak yandarénngé.

Got wunga yandékwanngé, guné dat waaruké yambak.


eng: Or hasn’t the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel for honor, and another for dishonor?

abt: Aké yakwa du képmaa ras kéraae aké vétik yate déku mawulé vékute yakandékwa. Kalmu dé kumbindakwa aké nak ye nakpulak baka aké nak yaké dé? Wan déku mawulé, wan déku jémbaa wa.


eng: But indeed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing formed ask him who formed it, “Why did you make me like this?”

abt: Wunga wamunaandaru, det anga wakawutékwa: Wunga wate guné baka du téte Gorét wa waarungunéngwa. Wunga waké yambak. Ani kundi ma vékungunék. Képmaamba yandén aké dé yan duwat katik anga waké dé, “Kamuké méné wunat wunga yak?” Wunga katik waké dé.

abt: Kalmu guna du ras wunat anga waké daré? “Got wunga wamunaae kamuké nanat waaruké dé, yananén kapérandi muséké? Nané dé wandén pulak yate wa déku kundi vékunangwa.”


eng: So then, he has mercy on whom he desires, and he hardens whom he desires.

abt: Got wunga wandéka anga vékuséknangwa. Got déku mawulémba vékulakate du dakwa raské sémbéraa yate det wa yékun yandékwa. Got déku mawulémba vékulakate wandéka nak du dakwa déku kundiké wa kalik yandakwa.


eng: For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I caused you to be raised up, that I might show in you my power, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”

abt: Wunga vékusékte ani muséké waak ma vékulakangunék. Talimba Got ani kundi Isipna néma duwat wandéka Gotna du nak Gotna nyéngaamba anga viyaatakandén: Wuné wawutéka méné néma du wa téménéngwa. Akwi képmaamba tékwa du dakwa ménat véte, wuna mayé apaké vékusékte wuna jémbaaké vékusékndarénngé, wa ménat wawutéka néma du téménéngwa.


eng: So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who has mercy.

abt: Wunga wandéka anga vékuséknangwa. Got du dakwana mawulé, yandarén néma muséké waak yamba vékulakate deké sémbéraa yate det yékun yandékwe wa. Got déku mawulémba vékulakate mawulé yandékwa pulak yate deké sémbéraa yate wa det yékun yandékwa.


eng: For he said to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

abt: Wani muséké talimba Got Mosesét anga wa wandén, “Wuné wuna mawulémba vékulakate mawulé yawutékwa pulak yakawutékwa. Wuné du dakwa raské sémbéraa yate det yékun yakawutékwa.” Naandén.


eng: What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? May it never be!

abt: Wunga wandénngé anga katik waké nané, “Got mawulé vétik yate sépélak wa yandékwa.” Wunga katik waké nané.


eng: Even as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

abt: Wani dunyanngu nyaan vétikngé ani kundi Gotna nyéngaamba wa kwaakwa: Got wa wandén, “Wuné Jekop déku gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké waak wa mawulé yawutén. Wuné Iso déku gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké waak wa kalik yawutén.” Naandén.


eng: it was said to her, “The elder will serve the younger.”

eng: For this is a word of promise: “At the appointed time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.”

eng: That is, it is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as heirs.

abt: Abrahamna akwi gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké anga katik waké nané, “Wan Gotna du dakwa wa.” Wunga wakapuk yate anga wakanangwa, “Got Abrahamna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu raské wa wani kundi wandén. Wani kundi wandén gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu male de Gotna kundi vékute déku du dakwa wa téndakwa.” Wunga wate wunga vékusék-nganangwa.


eng: Neither, because they are Abraham’s offspring, are they all children. But, “your offspring will be accounted as from Isaac.”

abt: Abrahamna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu de akwi Gotna du dakwa yamba téndakwe wa. Abrahamna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu ras male wa Gotna du dakwa téndakwa. Talimba Got Abrahamét anga wandén, “Némaamba gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké kundi ménat wate wa Sara kéraalén nyaan Aisakna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké wa wawutén. Ména jémbaa yan taakwa Hagar kéraalén nyaan ména léwinyanngé yamba wawutékwe wa.” Naandén. Wunga wandéka anga vékusék-wutékwa.


eng: But it is not as though the word of God has come to nothing. For they are not all Israel that are of Israel.

abt: Wani kundi wate anga yamba wawutékwe wa, “Talimba Got Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu Abrahamét wa wandén, déké, déku gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamuké waak. Wunga wandén kundi yamba sékérékndékwe wa.” Wunga yamba wawutékwe wa. Ma vékulakangunék. Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu de akwi Gotna du dakwa yamba téndakwe wa. Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu ras male wa de Gotna du dakwa téndakwa.


eng: of whom are the fathers, and from whom is Christ as concerning the flesh, who is over all, God, blessed forever. Amen.

abt: Deku gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu wan de Abraham, Aisak, Jekop wa. Got wan du Krais ani képmaamba yatéte deku kémba wa téndén. Wunga te anga waak wa téndékwa. Dé akwi du dakwa, musé aséké waak néma du Got wa randékwa. Randékwanngé nané déku yé apapu apapu ma kavérékngwak. Yi wan wanana wa.


eng: who are Israelites; whose is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the service, and the promises;

abt: Talimba Israelsat Got, “Wuna kém wa,” naandéka bulaa wuna kém du dakwa de Israelna gwaal waaranga maandéka bakamu wa yaréndakwa. Talimba Got wandéka de déku nyambalé wa yaréndarén.
