Romans 10

Frè m' yo, jan m' ta renmen wè jwif yo sove! Jan mwen pa manke lapriyè Bondye pou yo!

Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

Paske, m'ap kanpe di sa pou yo: yo devwe anpil pou sèvis Bondye a, men yo manke konprann.

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

Yo pa t' konprann ki jan Bondye t'ap fè lèzòm gras. Yo te pito chache fè sa nan jan pa yo. Se konsa yo pa t' asepte jan Bondye te vle fè l' la.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

Paske, avèk Kris la, lalwa a jwenn bout li. Konsa, Bondye fè tout moun ki kwè nan Kris la gras.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Koute: men sa Moyiz te ekri pou esplike ki jan Bondye fè yon moun gras lè l' fè sa lalwa a mande: Moun ki va fè sa lalwa a mande li fè a, va jwenn lavi l' ladan li.

For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

Men, men sa yo di pou esplike ki jan Bondye fè yon moun gras lè l' kwè: Piga ou di nan kè ou: Kilès ki va moute nan syèl la? (Sa vle di: pou fè Kris la desann soti ladan li.)

But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

Ou ankò: Kilès ki va desann anba nan gwo twou san fon an? (Sa vle di: pou fè Kris la leve soti vivan pami mò yo.)

Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

Kisa yo di ankò? Men sa yo di: Pawòl la toupre ou, li nan bouch ou, li nan kè ou. Epi pawòl la se mesaj konfyans nan Bondye, mesaj n'ap anonse a.

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

Si ou deklare ak bouch ou devan tout moun Jezi se Seyè a, si ou kwè tout bon nan kè ou Bondye te fè l' leve soti vivan pami mò yo, wa sove.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Paske, lè yon moun gen konfyans tout bon nan kè l', se lè sa a Bondye fè l' gras. Lè yon moun deklare ak bouch li devan tout moun li gen konfyans nan Bondye, se lè sa a Bondye delivre li,

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

dapre sa ki ekri nan Liv la: Nenpòt moun ki mete konfyans yo nan li p'ap janm soti wont.

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

Konsa, nanpwen diferans ant moun ki jwif ak moun ki pa jwif: yo tout gen yon sèl Mèt ki bay tout moun ki rele l' favè l' an kantite.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

Se sa ki ekri nan Liv la: Nenpòt moun ki rele non Met la gen pou jwenn delivrans.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Ki jan y'a fè rele l', si yo poko gen konfyans nan li? Ki jan pou yo gen konfyans nan li, si yo pa tande pale sou li? Ki jan pou yo tande pale sou li,

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

si pa gen pesonn pou fè konnen mesaj la? Ki jan pou yo fè fè konnen mesaj la, si pa gen moun yo voye pou sa? Dapre sa ki te ekri a: Ala bèl bagay lè ou wè moun k'ap pote yon bon nouvèl ap vini!

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

Men, se pa tout ki asepte bon nouvèl la. Se poutèt sa Ezayi te di: Mèt, kilès ki te kwè mesaj nou te bay la?

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

Konsa, se lè ou tande mesaj la ou vin gen konfyans. Mesaj la, se pawòl Kris la y'ap anonse.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Men, m'ap mande: Eske Izrayèl pa t' tande mesaj la? Men wi. Yo tande l' byen pwòp. Paske, jan sa te ekri nan Liv la: Pawòl nan bouch yo gaye sou tout latè. Mesaj yo bay la rive nan dènye bout latè.

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

Men, m'ap mande ankò: Eske Izrayèl pa t' konprann sa? Pou kòmanse, men repons Moyiz bay: M'ap fè nou fè jalouzi pou moun ki pa menm yon nasyon tout bon. M'ap fè nou fè kòlè poutèt yon pèp ki san konprann.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

Ezayi menm pouse radiyès li pi lwen toujou lè l' di: Moun ki pa t'ap chache m' yo, se yo menm ki jwenn mwen. Moun ki pa t'ap mande pou mwen yo, se yo menm mwen fè wè mwen.

But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

Men, men sa li di sou Izrayèl: Tout lajounen m'ap lonje men m' bay yon pèp ki rebèl, k'ap fè wòklò.

But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
