Lettera ai Romani (رومية) 1

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 بولس عبد ليسوع المسيح المدعو رسولا المفرز لانجيل الله	1 From Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle,
2 الذي سبق فوعد به بانبيائه في الكتب المقدسة	2 set apart for the service of the gospel that God promised long ago through his prophets in the holyscriptures.
3 عن ابنه. الذي صار من نسل داود من جهة الجسد	3 This is the gospel concerning his Son who, in terms of human nature
4 وتعيّن ابن الله بقوة من جهة روح القداسة بالقيامة من الاموات. يسوع المسيح ربنا	4 was born a descendant of David and who, in terms of the Spirit and of holiness, was designated Son ofGod in power by resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ, our Lord,
5 الذي به لاجل اسمه قبلنا نعمة ورسالة لاطاعة الايمان في جميع الامم	5 through whom we have received grace and our apostolic mission of winning the obedience of faithamong all the nations for the honour of his name.
6 الذين بينهم انتم ايضا مدعوو يسوع المسيح.	6 You are among these, and by his cal you belong to Jesus Christ.
7 الى جميع الموجودين في رومية احباء الله مدعوين قديسين. نعمة لكم وسلام من الله ابينا والرب يسوع المسيح.	7 To you al , God's beloved in Rome, cal ed to be his holy people. Grace and peace from God our Fatherand the Lord Jesus Christ.
8 اولا اشكر الهي بيسوع المسيح من جهة جميعكم ان ايمانكم ينادى به في كل العالم.	8 First I give thanks to my God through Jesus Christ for al of you because your faith is talked of al overthe world.
9 فان الله الذي اعبده بروحي في انجيل ابنه شاهد لي كيف بلا انقطاع اذكركم	9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness that I continuallymention you in my prayers,
10 متضرعا دائما في صلواتي عسى الآن ان يتيسر لي مرة بمشيئة الله ان آتي اليكم.	10 asking always that by some means I may at long last be enabled to visit you, if it is God's will.
11 لاني مشتاق ان اراكم لكي امنحكم هبة روحية لثباتكم.	11 For I am longing to see you so that I can convey to you some spiritual gift that will be a lastingstrength,
12 اي لنتعزى بينكم بالايمان الذي فينا جميعا ايمانكم وايماني	12 or rather that we may be strengthened together through our mutual faith, yours and mine.
13 ثم لست اريد ان تجهلوا ايها الاخوة انني مرارا كثيرة قصدت ان آتي اليكم. ومنعت حتى الآن. ليكون لي ثمر فيكم ايضا كما في سائر الامم	13 I want you to be quite certain too, brothers, that I have often planned to visit you -- though up to thepresent I have always been prevented -- in the hope that I might work as fruitfully among you as I have amongthe gentiles elsewhere.
14 اني مديون لليونانيين والبرابرة للحكماء والجهلاء.	14 I have an obligation to Greeks as wel as barbarians, to the educated as wel as the ignorant,
15 فهكذا ما هو لي مستعد لتبشيركم انتم الذين في رومية ايضا.	15 and hence the eagerness on my part to preach the gospel to you in Rome too.
16 لاني لست استحي بانجيل المسيح لانه قوة الله للخلاص لكل من يؤمن لليهودي اولا ثم لليوناني.	16 For I see no reason to be ashamed of the gospel; it is God's power for the salvation of everyone whohas faith -- Jews first, but Greeks as well-
17 لان فيه معلن بر الله بايمان لايمان كما هو مكتوب اما البار فبالايمان يحيا	17 for in it is revealed the saving justice of God: a justice based on faith and addressed to faith. As itsays in scripture: Anyone who is upright through faith will live.
18 لان غضب الله معلن من السماء على جميع فجور الناس واثمهم الذين يحجزون الحق بالاثم.	18 The retribution of God from heaven is being revealed against the ungodliness and injustice of humanbeings who in their injustice hold back the truth.
19 اذ معرفة الله ظاهرة فيهم لان الله اظهرها لهم.	19 For what can be known about God is perfectly plain to them, since God has made it plain to them:
20 لان اموره غير المنظورة ترى منذ خلق العالم مدركة بالمصنوعات قدرته السرمدية ولاهوته حتى انهم بلا عذر.	20 ever since the creation of the world, the invisible existence of God and his everlasting power havebeen clearly seen by the mind's understanding of created things. And so these people have no excuse:
21 لانهم لما عرفوا الله لم يمجدوه او يشكروه كاله بل حمقوا في افكارهم واظلم قلبهم الغبي.	21 they knew God and yet they did not honour him as God or give thanks to him, but their argumentsbecame futile and their uncomprehending minds were darkened.
22 وبينما هم يزعمون انهم حكماء صاروا جهلاء	22 While they claimed to be wise, in fact they were growing so stupid
23 وابدلوا مجد الله الذي لا يفنى بشبه صورة الانسان الذي يفنى والطيور والدواب والزحافات.	23 that they exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an imitation, for the image of a mortal humanbeing, or of birds, or animals, or crawling things.
24 لذلك اسلمهم الله ايضا في شهوات قلوبهم الى النجاسة لاهانة اجسادهم بين ذواتهم.	24 That is why God abandoned them in their inmost cravings to filthy practices of dishonouring their ownbodies-
25 الذين استبدلوا حق الله بالكذب واتقوا وعبدوا المخلوق دون الخالق الذي هو مبارك الى الابد آمين.	25 because they exchanged God's truth for a lie and have worshipped and served the creature insteadof the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 لذلك اسلمهم الله الى اهواء الهوان. لان اناثهم استبدلن الاستعمال الطبيعي بالذي على خلاف الطبيعة.	26 That is why God abandoned them to degrading passions:
27 وكذلك الذكور ايضا تاركين استعمال الانثى الطبيعي اشتعلوا بشهوتهم بعضهم لبعض فاعلين الفحشاء ذكورا بذكور ونائلين في انفسهم جزاء ضلالهم المحق.	27 why their women have exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural practices; and the men, in asimilar fashion, too, giving up normal relations with women, are consumed with passion for each other, mendoing shameful things with men and receiving in themselves due reward for their perversion.
28 وكما لم يستحسنوا ان يبقوا الله في معرفتهم اسلمهم الله الى ذهن مرفوض ليفعلوا ما لا يليق.	28 In other words, since they would not consent to acknowledge God, God abandoned them to theirunacceptable thoughts and indecent behaviour.
29 مملوئين من كل اثم وزنى وشر وطمع وخبث مشحونين حسدا وقتلا وخصاما ومكرا وسؤا	29 And so now they are steeped in al sorts of injustice, rottenness, greed and malice; full of envy,murder, wrangling, treachery and spite,
30 نمّامين مفترين مبغضين لله ثالبين متعظمين مدّعين مبتدعين شرورا غير طائعين للوالدين	30 libel ers, slanderers, enemies of God, rude, arrogant and boastful, enterprising in evil, rebellious toparents,
31 بلا فهم ولا عهد ولا حنو ولا رضى ولا رحمة	31 without brains, honour, love or pity.
32 الذين اذ عرفوا حكم الله ان الذين يعملون مثل هذه يستوجبون الموت لا يفعلونها فقط بل ايضا يسرّون بالذين يعملون	32 They are well aware of God's ordinance: that those who behave like this deserve to die -- yet they notonly do it, but even applaud others who do the same.
