Romans 2

Koa amin'izany dia tsy manan-kalahatra ianao, ralehilahy, na zovy na zovy ianao izay mitsara; fa izay itsaranao ny sasany no anamelohanao ny tenanao koa, fa ianao izay mitsara aza dia mba manao izany ihany koa.

Therefore 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.

Nefa fantatsika fa ny fitsaran'Andriamanitra dia araka ny marina amin'izay manao toy izany.

But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

Ary ianao, ralehilahy, izay mitsara ny manao izany, kanefa manao izany koa ny tenanao, moa ataonao va fa ho afa-mandositra ny fitsaran'Andriamanitra ianao?

And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

Sa hamavoinao ny haren'ny fahamoram-panahiny sy ny fandeferany ary ny fahari-pony, satria tsy fantatrao fa ny fahamoram-panahin'Andriamanitra dia mitaona anao hibebaka?

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

Fa ny ditranao sy ny fonao tsy mibebaka no irakatenao fahatezerana ho anao amin'ny andro fahatezerana sy fampisehoana ny fitsarana marin'Andriamanitra,

But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

Izay hamaly ny olona rehetra araka ny asany avy:

Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

ho an'izay maharitra manao soa mandrakariva ka mitady voninahitra sy laza ary tsi-fahafatesana, dia fiainana mandrakizay;

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

fa ho an'izay mitady ny ho an'ny tenany ihany kosa sady tsy manaraka ny marina, fa manaraka ny tsy marina, dia fahavinirana sy fahatezerana,

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

eny, fahoriana sy fahantrana ho an'ny fanahin'ny olona rehetra izay manao ratsy, amin'ny Jiosy aloha, dia vao amin'ny jentilisa koa;

Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

fa voninahitra sy laza ary fiadanana kosa ho an'ny olona rehetra izay manao ny tsara, amin'ny Jiosy aloha, dia vao amin'ny jentilisa koa.

But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

Fa tsy misy fizahan-tavan'olona amin'Andriamanitra.

For there is no respect of persons with God.

Fa izay nanota tsy nanana ny lalàna dia ho very tsy manana ny lalàna; fa izay nanota nanana ny lalàna kosa dia hotsaraina araka ny lalàna.

For 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;

Fa tsy ny mpandre ny lalàna no marina eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra, fa ny mpankatò ny lalàna no hohamarinina;

(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

fa na oviana na oviana ireo jentilisa tsy manana ny lalàna ireo no misy manao izay nandidian'ny lalàna araka ny nahim-pony, na dia tsy manana ny lalàna aza ireo, dia lalàn-tenany ihany;

For 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:

fa ireo maneho ny asan'ny lalàna ho voasoratra ao am-pony, sady ny fieritreretany no vavolombelony, ary ny fisainany mifampiampanga, nefa mba mifanafaka ihany koa aza,-

Which 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;)

amin'ny andro izay hitsaran'Andriamanitra ny zavatra takona ataon'ny olona, araka ny filazantsarako amin'ny alalan'i Jesosy Kristy.

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

Fa raha saingy atao hoe Jiosy ianao ka mitoky amin'ny lalàna sy manao an'Andriamanitra ho reharehanao

Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

ary mahalala ny sitrapony sady mamantatra ny zavatra tsara indrindra, satria efa nampianarina ny lalàna ianao

And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;

ary matoky ny tenanao ho mpitarika ny jamba, fanazavana ny ao amin'ny maizina,

And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,

mpananatra ny adala, mpampianatra ny bodo, satria ianao manana ny lalàna ho mariky ny fahalalana sy ny fahamarinana:

An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

ka moa ianao izay mampianatra ny sasany, tsy mba mampianatra ny tenanao koa va? Hianao izay mitory hoe: Aza mangalatra, mba mangalatra ihany va ianao?

Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

Hianao izay manao hoe: Aza mijangajanga, mba mijangajanga ihany va ianao? Hianao izay mametaveta ny sampy, mba mandroba tempoly ihany va ianao?

Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

Hianao izay manao ny lalàna ho reharehanao, mba manala voninahitra an'Andriamanitra ihany va ianao amin'ny andikanao ny lalàna?

Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

Fa araka ny voasoratra, dia ianareo no itenenana ratsy ny anaran'Andriamanitra any amin'ny jentilisa (Isa. 52. 5).

For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

Fa ny famorana mahasoa tokoa, raha mankatò ny lalàna ianao; fa raha mpandika ny lalàna kosa ianao, dia efa tonga toy ny tsy voafora, na dia efa voafora aza.

For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

Ary raha mankatò ny fitsipiky ny lalàna ny tsy voafora, tsy hatao ho isan'ny voafora va izy, na dia tsy voafora aza?

Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

Ary tsy hohelohin'ny tsy mifora izay mankatò ny lalàna va ianao, izay mpandika ny lalàna, na dia manana ny soratra sy ny famorana aza ianao?

And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

Fa tsy izay araka ny miseho no Jiosy, ary tsy izay miseho eo amin'ny nofo no famorana;

For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

fa izay araka ny miafina no Jiosy, ary ny famorana dia amin'ny fo, amin'ny fanahy, fa tsy amin'ny soratra; ny fiderana ireny tsy avy amin'ny olona, fa avy amin'Andriamanitra.

But 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.
