Romans 11
1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, [of] the tribe of Benjamin.
Ane ta oychchays: yaatin, Xoossay ba asaa aggideyye? Aggibeenna! Taani ta huu7en Isra7eele; Abrahaame sheeshi; Biniyame zare.
2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
Xoossay koyro doorida ba asata yeggenna. Geeshsha Maxaafan, Eliyaasi Isra7eelata Xoossaa sinthan waati mootidaakko, hintte erekketii?
3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
Eliyaasi, “Godaw, entti ne nabeta wodhidosona, ne yarshsho bessaaka laallidosona. Ta tarkka attas; entti tanakka wodhanaw koyoosona” yaagis.
4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to [the image of] Baal.
Xoossay iyaw woygi zaaridee? “Ba7aale giya eeqas goynniboonna laappun mukulu asaa taw ashshas” yaagis.
5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
Hessadakka, ha wodiyan Xoossay ba aadho keehatethan doorida guutha Isra7eeleti de7oosona.
6 And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it be] of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
I entta dooriday ba aadho keehatethaanappe attin entta ooson gidenna. Dooroy ooson gidikko, iya aadho keehatethay tuma aadho keehatethi gidenna.
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded
Yaatin, waanidee? Isra7eeleti bantta koyabaa demmibookkona, shin Xoossay doorida guuthati demmidosona. Attidayssati bantta wozanaa muumisidosona.
8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear; ) unto this day.
Hessika, Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Entti bantta ayfiyaan be7onnaada bantta haythan si7onnaada, hanno gakkanaw enttaw Xoossay azalla ayyaana immis” geetettidi xaafettidayssada hanis.
9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:
Qassi Dawitey, “Entti miya gaytay entta xiheda oykko; entta gufanthiya aafo gido; entta iitatethay entta bolla gakko.
10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.
Entti xeellonnaada entta ayfey goozetto; ubba wode meton entti kuunidi de7o” yaagis.
11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but [rather] through their fall salvation [is come] unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
Yaatin, Ayhudeti zaari denddonna mela kunddidonayye? Gidenna! Entta kunddethay Ayhude gidonna asay attana mela gaaso gidis. Hessika Ayhudeti entta bolla qanaatanaada oothis.
12 Now if the fall of them [be] the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
Ayhudeta nagaray alamiyas daro anjjo ehis; qassi entta kunddethay Ayhude gidonna asaas daro anjjo gidis. Yaatin, doorettida Ayhudeti kumethi attiyaa wode anjjoy ay mela daranddeshsha!
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
Taani, ha77i hinttew Ayhude gidonna asaas odays. Ayhude gidonna asaas hawaare gidada ootheyssan taani daro ceeqettays.
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation [them which are] my flesh, and might save some of them.
Ta hessa oothiday taw ashon zare gidida Isra7eeleta qiiroyada enttafe guuthata ashshanaassa.
15 For if the casting away of them [be] the reconciling of the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life from the dead?
Xoossay entta yeggida wode, ha alamey Xoossaara sigettis. Xoossay entta shiishi ekkiya wode hayqqida asi hayqoppe denddida mela gidees.
16 For if the firstfruit [be] holy, the lump [is] also [holy]: and if the root [be] holy, so [are] the branches.
Koyro menthida baso uythay Xoossaas yarshshettidi geeshshi gidikko, muume uythayka geeshshi. Mithaas xaphoy geeshshi gidikko, tasheykka geeshshi.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
Gaden tokkida shamaho tashe gidida Ayhudeti karettin, hintte bazzon dolida shamaho tashe gidida Ayhude gidonnayssati entta bessan dhanthettidi entta anjjuwaanne duretethaa shaakettideta.
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
Hiza, hintte tasheda karetti wodhdhida Ayhudeta bolla otorttofite. Hintte otorttiyabaa gidikko, xaphoy hinttena tookkesippe attin hintte xaphuwa tookkonayssa akeekite.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
Neeni, “He tasheti karettiday, ta entta bessan dhanthettana melassa” gaanaw dandda7aasa.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
Hessi tuma. Entti ammaniboonna gisho karettidosona. Neeni ammanida gisho he bessan eqqadasa. Neeni yayyanaw besseesppe attin otoranaw bessenna.
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, [take heed] lest he also spare not thee.
Xoossay medhon tashe gidida Ayhudetas qadhettonna ixxiko hinttewuka qadhettenna.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in [his] goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
Hiza, Xoossay ay mela keehekonne ay mela yashshiyako be7a. I yashshey kiitettonayssata, qassi I keehey iya ammanidi minnidi eqqidayssatassa. Minnidi eqqonna ixxiko hintteka karettana.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
Ayhudeti ammanikko, kase entti de7iya bessaa simmana. Xoossay entta zaaridi, wothanaw dandda7ees.
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural [branches], be graffed into their own olive tree?
Hinttena bazzon de7iya shamaho gidida Ayhude gidonnayssata qanxidi, gaden tookettida shamahuwa bolla hinttena tokkiko, medhon gade shamaho gidida Ayhudeta bantta koyro bessan zaari tokkanaw waanidi dandda7ettenee?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Ta ishato, hintte hinttena eranchcho gidi ceeqettofite. Ta hinttew odiya issi xuuri de7ees. Hessika Isra7eeletappe baggay si7onna ixxiday wurssethi gakkanaw gidonnashin, attanaw de7iya Ayhude gidonna asay kumethi Xoossako yaana gakkanaassa.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Hessadakka, Isra7eele asay ubbay attana. Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Nuna ashsheyssi Xiyooneppe yaana; Yayqooba zerethaafe iita ubbaa diggana.
27 For this [is] my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
Taani entta nagara atto giya wode enttara caaqqana caaqoy hayssa” geetettidi xaafettis.
28 As concerning the gospel, [they are] enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, [they are] beloved for the fathers’ sakes.
Ayhudeti Wonggelaa ekkonna ixxidi, hintte gisho Xoossaara morkke gididosona. Gidoshin, ha77ika entti doorettidayssata, Xoossay entta aawata gisho entta dosees.
29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.
Xoossay ba imuwaninne ba xeessan qiirottenna.
30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:
Hintte Ayhude gidonnayssati kase Xoossaas kiitettibeekketa. Shin ha77i Ayhudeti kiitettonna ixxin, hintte Xoossaa maarotethaa ekkideta.
31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.
Hessadakka, hintte ekkida maarotethaa Ayhudeti ekkana mela ha77i Xoossaas kiitettonna ixxidosona.
Xoossay asa ubbaa ba maarotethaa bessanaw koyidi, asi ubbay kiitettonna ixxana mela oothis. (eleēsē g1653)
33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable [are] his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Xoossaa duretethaa, cinccatethaanne eratethaa akeekidi odanay oonee? Iya pirdday pilggettena, iya ogey erettenna.
34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
Geeshsha Maxaafan, “Godaa qofaa erey oonee? Iya zoranaw dandda7ey oonee?
35 Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?
Xoossaas tal77eynne tal77iya zaaridi ekkey oonee?” yaagees.
