Ròm 10
1 Frè m yo, dezi kè m ak lapriyè m a Bondye se pou tout Jwif yo kapab sove.
Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God for them is, that they may get salvation.
2 Paske mwen temwaye de yo ke yo gen yon zèl pou Bondye, men pa selon bon konprann yo.
For I give witness of them that they have a strong desire for God, but not with knowledge.
3 Paske san konesans de ladwati Bondye a, yo te eseye etabli ladwati pa yo, e yo pa t soumèt yo menm a jistis Bondye a.
Because, not having knowledge of God's righteousness, and desiring to give effect to their righteousness, they have not put themselves under the righteousness of God.
4 Paske Kris fè lalwa a ranpli pou ladwati de tout sila ki kwè yo.
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who has faith.
5 Moïse te ekri ke moun ki pratike ladwati ki baze sou Lalwa a ap viv pa jistis sila a.
For Moses says that the man who does the righteousness which is of the law will get life by it.
6 Men ladwati ki baze sou lafwa a, pale konsa: “Pa di nan kè ou ‘Kilès k ap monte nan syèl la?’ (Sa vle di pou fè Kris desann)
But the righteousness which is of faith says these words, Say not in your heart, Who will go up to heaven? (that is, to make Christ come down: )
7 Oubyen: ‘Kilès k ap desann nan labim nan’ (sa vle di pou mennen Kris sòti nan lanmò).” (Abyssos g12)
Or, Who will go down into the deep? (that is, to make Christ come again from the dead: ) (Abyssos g12)
8 Men kisa sa di? “Pawòl la toupre ou nan bouch ou, ak nan kè ou.” Sa vle di pawòl lafwa ke n ap preche a,
But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the word of faith of which we are the preachers:
9 ke si ou konfese avèk bouch ou Jésus kòm Senyè, e kwè nan kè ou ke Bondye te resisite L, soti nan lanmò, ou va sove.
Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and have faith in your heart that God has made him come back from the dead, you will have salvation:
10 Paske avèk kè yon moun kwè ki fè l rive nan ladwati a, e avèk bouch li konfese ki fè l va sove.
For with the heart man has faith to get righteousness, and with the mouth he says that Jesus is Lord to get salvation.
11 Paske Ekriti Sen an di: “Nenpòt moun ki kwè nan Li p ap desi.”
Because it is said in the holy Writings, Whoever has faith in him will not be shamed.
12 Paske pa gen distenksyon antre Jwif ak Grèk; paske menm Senyè a se Senyè a tout moun, e Li plen richès pou tout sila ki rele Li yo.
And the Jew is not different from the Greek: for there is the same Lord of all, who is good to all who have hope in his name:
13 Konsa, “Nenpòt moun ki rele Non Senyè a ap sove.”
Because, Whoever will give worship to the name of the Lord will get salvation.
14 Konsa kòman yo va rele Li si yo pa janm kwè? Kòman yo va kwè nan Li si yo pa janm tande? Epi kòman yo va tande san yon predikatè?
But how will they give worship to him in whom they have no faith? and how will they have faith in him of whom they have not had news? and how will they have news without a preacher?
15 Kòman yo va preche yo si yo pa voye ba yo? Jis jan sa ekri a: “A la bèl pye a sila ki pote bòn nouvèl a bon bagay bèl yo!”
And how will there be preachers if they are not sent? As it is said, How beautiful are the feet of those who give the glad news of good things.
16 Sepandan, se pa tout moun ki te aksepte bòn nouvèl la; Ésaïe di: “Senyè, kilès ki kwè rapò nou an?”
But they have not all given ear to the good news. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has had faith in our word?
17 Konsa lafwa soti nan tande, e tande pa pawòl a Kris la.
So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
18 Men mwen di: “Byensi, yo pa janm tande; se pa sa?” Anfèt yo tande: “Vwa pa yo ale sou tout latè e pawòl pa yo rive jis nan dènye pwent mond lan.” Epi pawòl yo rive nan tout pwent latè a.
But I say, Did not the word come to their ears? Yes, certainly: Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
19 Men mwen di: “Byensi Israël pa t konnen; se pa sa?” Dabò, Moïse di: “M ap fè nou jalou pou sa ki pa yon nasyon; avèk yon nasyon san konprann, m ap fè nou fache.”
But I say, Had Israel no knowledge? First Moses says, You will be moved to envy by that which is not a nation, and by a foolish people I will make you angry.
20 Ésaïe, ak kouraj te di: “Mwen te twouve pa sila ki pa t chache M yo; Mwen te vin parèt a sila ki pa t mande pou mwen yo.”
And Isaiah says without fear, Those who were not searching for me made discovery of me; and I was seen by those whose hearts were turned away from me.
21 Men selon Israël Li di: “Mwen lonje men m tout lajounen bay yon pèp tèt di e dezobeyisan.”
But about Israel he says; All the day my hands have been stretched out to a people whose hearts were turned away, and who put themselves against my word.
