Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, and set apart for the gospel of God—

1 بُولُسُ، عَبْدٌ لِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ رَسُولًا، ٱلْمُفْرَزُ لِإِنْجِيلِ ٱللهِ،

2 the gospel He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures,

2 ٱلَّذِي سَبَقَ فَوَعَدَ بِهِ بِأَنْبِيَائِهِ فِي ٱلْكُتُبِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ،

3 regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh,

3 عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ. ٱلَّذِي صَارَ مِنْ نَسْلِ دَاوُدَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْجَسَدِ،

4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

4 وَتَعَيَّنَ ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ بِقُوَّةٍ مِنْ جِهَةِ رُوحِ ٱلْقَدَاسَةِ، بِٱلْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ: يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ رَبِّنَا.

5 Through Him and on behalf of His name, we received grace and apostleship to call all those among the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.

5 ٱلَّذِي بِهِ، لِأَجْلِ ٱسْمِهِ، قَبِلْنَا نِعْمَةً وَرِسَالَةً، لِإِطَاعَةِ ٱلْإِيمَانِ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ،

6 And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.

6 ٱلَّذِينَ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا مَدْعُوُّو يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

7 إِلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ فِي رُومِيَةَ، أَحِبَّاءَ ٱللهِ، مَدْعُوِّينَ قِدِّيسِينَ: نِعْمَةٌ لَكُمْ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ أَبِينَا وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being proclaimed all over the world.

8 أَوَّلًا، أَشْكُرُ إِلَهِي بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مِنْ جِهَةِ جَمِيعِكُمْ، أَنَّ إِيمَانَكُمْ يُنَادَى بِهِ فِي كُلِّ ٱلْعَالَمِ.

9 God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of His Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you

9 فَإِنَّ ٱللهَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْبُدُهُ بِرُوحِي، فِي إِنْجِيلِ ٱبْنِهِ، شَاهِدٌ لِي كَيْفَ بِلَا ٱنْقِطَاعٍ أَذْكُرُكُمْ،

10 in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.

10 مُتَضَرِّعًا دَائِمًا فِي صَلَوَاتِي عَسَى ٱلْآنَ أَنْ يَتَيَسَّرَ لِي مَرَّةً بِمَشِيئَةِ ٱللهِ أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ.

11 For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

11 لِأَنِّي مُشْتَاقٌ أَنْ أَرَاكُمْ، لِكَيْ أَمْنَحَكُمْ هِبَةً رُوحِيَّةً لِثَبَاتِكُمْ،

12 that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.

12 أَيْ لِنَتَعَزَّى بَيْنَكُمْ بِٱلْإِيمَانِ ٱلَّذِي فِينَا جَمِيعًا، إِيمَانِكُمْ وَإِيمَانِي.

13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, how often I planned to come to you (but have been prevented from visiting until now), in order that I might have a harvest among you, just as I have had among the other Gentiles.

13 ثُمَّ لَسْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَجْهَلُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ أَنَّنِي مِرَارًا كَثِيرَةً قَصَدْتُ أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ، وَمُنِعْتُ حَتَّى ٱلْآنَ، لِيَكُونَ لِي ثَمَرٌ فِيكُمْ أَيْضًا كَمَا فِي سَائِرِ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

14 I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.

14 إِنِّي مَدْيُونٌ لِلْيُونَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْبَرَابِرَةِ، لِلْحُكَمَاءِ وَٱلْجُهَلَاءِ.

15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.

15 فَهَكَذَا مَا هُوَ لِي مُسْتَعَدٌّ لِتَبْشِيرِكُمْ أَنْتُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي رُومِيَةَ أَيْضًا،

16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.

16 لِأَنِّي لَسْتُ أَسْتَحِي بِإِنْجِيلِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، لِأَنَّهُ قُوَّةُ ٱللهِ لِلْخَلَاصِ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ: لِلْيَهُودِيِّ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ لِلْيُونَانِيِّ.

17 For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

17 لِأَنْ فِيهِ مُعْلَنٌ بِرُّ ٱللهِ بِإِيمَانٍ، لِإِيمَانٍ، كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «أَمَّا ٱلْبَارُّ فَبِٱلْإِيمَانِ يَحْيَا».

18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.

18 لِأَنَّ غَضَبَ ٱللهِ مُعْلَنٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ عَلَى جَمِيعِ فُجُورِ ٱلنَّاسِ وَإِثْمِهِمِ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْجِزُونَ ٱلْحَقَّ بِٱلْإِثْمِ.

19 For what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.

19 إِذْ مَعْرِفَةُ ٱللهِ ظَاهِرَةٌ فِيهِمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ أَظْهَرَهَا لَهُمْ،

20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from His workmanship, so that men are without excuse.

20 لِأَنَّ أُمُورَهُ غَيْرَ ٱلْمَنْظُورَةِ تُرىَ مُنْذُ خَلْقِ ٱلْعَالَمِ مُدْرَكَةً بِٱلْمَصْنُوعَاتِ، قُدْرَتَهُ ٱلسَّرْمَدِيَّةَ وَلَاهُوتَهُ، حَتَّى إِنَّهُمْ بِلَا عُذْرٍ.

21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him, but they became futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts.

21 لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمَّا عَرَفُوا ٱللهَ لَمْ يُمَجِّدُوهُ أَوْ يَشْكُرُوهُ كَإِلَهٍ، بَلْ حَمِقُوا فِي أَفْكَارِهِمْ، وَأَظْلَمَ قَلْبُهُمُ ٱلْغَبِيُّ.

22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools,

22 وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُمْ حُكَمَاءُ صَارُوا جُهَلَاءَ،

23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images of mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

23 وَأَبْدَلُوا مَجْدَ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَفْنَى بِشِبْهِ صُورَةِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَفْنَى، وَٱلطُّيُورِ، وَٱلدَّوَابِّ، وَٱلزَّحَّافَاتِ.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.

24 لِذَلِكَ أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ أَيْضًا فِي شَهَوَاتِ قُلُوبِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلنَّجَاسَةِ، لِإِهَانَةِ أَجْسَادِهِمْ بَيْنَ ذَوَاتِهِمِ.

25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen.

25 ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَبْدَلُوا حَقَّ ٱللهِ بِٱلْكَذِبِ، وَٱتَّقَوْا وَعَبَدُوا ٱلْمَخْلُوقَ دُونَ ٱلْخَالِقِ، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ مُبَارَكٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. آمِينَ.

26 For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.

26 لِذَلِكَ أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ إِلَى أَهْوَاءِ ٱلْهَوَانِ، لِأَنَّ إِنَاثَهُمُ ٱسْتَبْدَلْنَ ٱلٱسْتِعْمَالَ ٱلطَّبِيعِيَّ بِٱلَّذِي عَلَى خِلَافِ ٱلطَّبِيعَةِ،

27 Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

27 وَكَذَلِكَ ٱلذُّكُورُ أَيْضًا تَارِكِينَ ٱسْتِعْمَالَ ٱلْأُنْثَى ٱلطَّبِيعِيَّ، ٱشْتَعَلُوا بِشَهْوَتِهِمْ بَعْضِهِمْ لِبَعْضٍ، فَاعِلِينَ ٱلْفَحْشَاءَ ذُكُورًا بِذُكُورٍ، وَنَائِلِينَ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ جَزَاءَ ضَلَالِهِمِ ٱلْمُحِقَّ.

28 Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

28 وَكَمَا لَمْ يَسْتَحْسِنُوا أَنْ يُبْقُوا ٱللهَ فِي مَعْرِفَتِهِمْ، أَسْلَمَهُمُ ٱللهُ إِلَى ذِهْنٍ مَرْفُوضٍ لِيَفْعَلُوا مَا لَا يَلِيقُ.

29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips,

29 مَمْلُوئِينَ مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمٍ وَزِنًا وَشَرٍّ وَطَمَعٍ وَخُبْثٍ، مَشْحُونِينَ حَسَدًا وَقَتْلًا وَخِصَامًا وَمَكْرًا وَسُوءًا،

30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents.

30 نَمَّامِينَ مُفْتَرِينَ، مُبْغِضِينَ لِلهِ، ثَالِبِينَ مُتَعَظِّمِينَ مُدَّعِينَ، مُبْتَدِعِينَ شُرُورًا، غَيْرَ طَائِعِينَ لِلْوَالِدَيْنِ،

31 They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless.

31 بِلَا فَهْمٍ وَلَا عَهْدٍ وَلَا حُنُوٍّ وَلَا رِضًى وَلَا رَحْمَةٍ.

32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them.

32 ٱلَّذِينَ إِذْ عَرَفُوا حُكْمَ ٱللهِ أَنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ يَسْتَوْجِبُونَ ٱلْمَوْتَ، لَا يَفْعَلُونَهَا فَقَطْ، بَلْ أَيْضًا يُسَرُّونَ بِٱلَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ.
