| [1]BUT I say, Hath Aloha put away his people? Not so. For I also am of Israel, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benyamen. |
[1]Λέγω οὖν, μὴ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ; μὴ γένοιτο· καὶ γὰρ ἐγὼ ᾿Ισραηλίτης εἰμί, ἐκ σπέρματος ᾿Αβραάμ, φυλῆς Βενιαμίν. |
| [2]Aloha hath not put away his people whom from before he knew. Or know you not what he saith in the scripture concerning Elia, when he cried unto Aloha against Israel, saying, |
[2]οὐκ ἀπώσατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ὃν προέγνω. ἢ οὐκ οἴδατε ἐν ᾿Ηλίᾳ τί λέγει ἡ γραφή, ὡς ἐντυγχάνει τῷ Θεῷ κατὰ τοῦ ᾿Ισραὴλ λέγων; |
| [3]My Lord, thy prophets have they killed, and thy altars overthrown, and I alone am left, and they seek my soul? |
[3]Κύριε, τοὺς προφήτας σου ἀπέκτειναν καὶ τὰ θυσιαστήριά σου κατέσκαψαν, κἀγὼ ὑπελείφθην μόνος, καὶ ζητοῦσι τὴν ψυχήν μου. |
| [4]And it was said to him by revelation, Behold, I have left to myself seven thousand men, who upon their knees have not kneeled nor worshipped Baal. |
[4]ἀλλὰ τί λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ χρηματισμός; κατέλιπον ἐμαυτῷ ἑπτακισχιλίους ἄνδρας, οἵτινες οὐκ ἔκαμψαν γόνυ τῷ Βάαλ. |
| [5]So also, at this time, a residue is left by the election of grace. |
[5]οὕτως οὖν καὶ ἐν τῷ νῦν καιρῷ λεῖμμα κατ᾿ ἐκλογὴν χάριτος γέγονεν. |
| [6]But if by grace, it is not of works; otherwise grace is not grace. But if by works, it is not of grace; otherwise work is not work. |
[6]εἰ δὲ χάριτι, οὐκέτι ἐξ ἔργων· ἐπεὶ ἡ χάρις οὐκέτι γίνεται χάρις. εἰ δὲ ἐξ ἔργων, οὐκέτι ἐστὶ χάρις· ἐπεὶ τὸ ἔργον οὐκέτι ἐστὶν ἔργον. |
| [7]What then, That which Israel sought he hath not found; but the election hath found: but the rest of them are blinded in their hearts. |
[7]Τί οὖν; ὃ ἐπιζητεῖ ᾿Ισραήλ, τοῦτο οὐκ ἐπέτυχεν, ἡ δὲ ἐκλογὴ ἐπέτυχεν· οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἐπωρώθησαν, |
| [8]As it is written, Aloha hath given them the spirit of trouble,ⓘ And eyes that see not, and ears that hear not, until the present day.ⓘ |
[8]καθὼς γέγραπται· ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς πνεῦμα κατανύξεως, ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν καὶ ὦτα τοῦ μὴ ἀκούειν, ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας. |
| [9]And David again saith, let their table become a snare before them, and their reward be for a stumbling-block: |
[9]καὶ Δαυῒδ λέγει· γενηθήτω ἡ τράπεζα αὐτῶν εἰς παγίδα καὶ εἰς θήραν καὶ εἰς σκάνδαλον καὶ εἰς ἀνταπόδομα αὐτοῖς· |
| [10]Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and their back at all times be bowed; |
[10]σκοτισθήτωσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν τοῦ μὴ βλέπειν, καὶ τὸν νῶτον αὐτῶν διὰ παντὸς σύγκαμψον. |
| [11]But I say, Have they stumbled so as to fall? Not so: but, by their stumbling was salvation to the Gentiles, unto [the stirring up of] their zeal. |
[11]Λέγω οὖν, μὴ ἔπταισαν ἵνα πέσωσι; μὴ γένοιτο· ἀλλὰ τῷ αὐτῶν παραπτώματι ἡ σωτηρία τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, εἰς τὸ παραζηλῶσαι αὐτούς. |
| [12]And if their stumbling were wealth to the world, and their condemnation wealth to the Gentiles, how much then will their fulness be? |
[12]εἰ δὲ τὸ παράπτωμα αὐτῶν πλοῦτος κόσμου καὶ τὸ ἥττημα αὐτῶν πλοῦτος ἐθνῶν, πόσῳ μᾶλλον τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῶν; |
| [13]To you, Gentiles, I speak, I, who am apostle of the Gentiles, in my ministry I glory,ⓘ |
[13]῾Υμῖν γὰρ λέγω τοῖς ἔθνεσιν. ἐφ᾿ ὅσον μέν εἰμι ἐγὼ ἐθνῶν ἀπόστολος, τὴν διακονίαν μου δοξάζω, |
| [14]If I may provoke my fleshly kindred, and save some of them. |
[14]εἴ πως παραζηλώσω μου τὴν σάρκα καὶ σώσω τινὰς ἐξ αὐτῶν. |
| [15]For if their rejection was the reconciliation of the world, what [will] their conversion [be] but life from the dead? |
[15]εἰ γὰρ ἡ ἀποβολὴ αὐτῶν καταλλαγὴ κόσμου, τίς ἡ πρόσληψις εἰ μὴ ζωὴ ἐκ νεκρῶν; |
| [16]For if the first-fruits be holy, [so] also [will be] the mass; and if the root be holy, [so] also the branches. |
[16]εἰ δὲ ἡ ἀπαρχὴ ἁγία, καὶ τὸ φύραμα· καὶ εἰ ἡ ῥίζα ἁγία, καὶ οἱ κλάδοι. |
| [17]And if the branches were cut off, and thou who art a wild olive art engrafted in their place, and hast a participation of the root and fatness of the olive, |
[17]Εἰ δέ τινες τῶν κλάδων ἐξεκλάσθησαν, σὺ δὲ ἀγριέλαιος ὢν ἐνεκεντρίσθης ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ συγκοινωνὸς τῆς ῥίζης καὶ τῆς πιότητος τῆς ἐλαίας ἐγένου, |
| [18]Boast not against the branches: but if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root beareth thee. |
[18]μὴ κατακαυχῶ τῶν κλάδων· εἰ δὲ κατακαυχᾶσαι, οὐ σὺ τὴν ῥίζαν βαστάζεις, ἀλλ᾿ ἡ ῥίζα σέ. |
| [19]And perhaps thou wilt say, The branches were cut off, and I in their place am engrafted: |
[19]ἐρεῖς οὖν· ἐξεκλάσθησαν οἱ κλάδοι, ἵνα ἐγὼ ἐγκεντρισθῶ. |
| [20]Well, they on account of unbelief were cut off, and thou by faith standest: be not exalted in thy mind, but fear. |
[20]καλῶς· τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ ἐξεκλάσθησαν, σὺ δὲ τῇ πίστει ἕστηκας. μὴ ὑψηλοφρόνει, ἀλλὰ φοβοῦ· |
| [21]If Aloha spared not them who were branches by nature, [take heed] lest he spare not thee. |
[21]εἰ γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς τῶν κατὰ φύσιν κλάδων οὐκ ἐφείσατο, μή πως οὐδὲ σοῦ φείσεται. |
| [22]Behold, then, the goodness and the severity of Aloha: towards them who fell, severity; but towards thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness; if not, thou also wilt be cut off. |
[22]ἴδε οὖν χρηστότητα καὶ ἀποτομίαν Θεοῦ, ἐπὶ μὲν τοὺς πεσόντας ἀποτομίαν, ἐπὶ δὲ σὲ χρηστότητα, ἐὰν ἐπιμείνῃς τῇ χρηστότητι· ἐπεὶ καὶ σὺ ἐκκοπήσῃ. |
| [23]And they, if they continue not in their want of faith, they also shall be engrafted; for Aloha is able again to engraft them. |
[23]καὶ ἐκεῖνοι δέ, ἐὰν μὴ ἐπιμείνωσι τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ, ἐγκεντρισθήσονται· δυνατὸς γὰρ ὁ Θεός ἐστι πάλιν ἐγκεντρίσαι αὐτούς, |
| [24]For if thou who art of the wild olive which is thy nature, wast cut off, and, which was not thy nature, art engrafted into the good olive, how much more they, if they are engrafted into the olive of their nature? |
[24]εἰ γὰρ σὺ ἐκ τῆς κατὰ φύσιν ἐξεκόπης ἀγριελαίου καὶ παρὰ φύσιν ἐνεκεντρίσθης εἰς καλλιέλαιον, πόσῳ μᾶλλον οὗτοι οἱ κατὰ φύσιν ἐγκεντρισθήσονται τῇ ἰδίᾳ ἐλαίᾳ; |
| [25]But I would have you know, my brethren, this mystery, that you may not be wise in your own mind,—that blindness of heart for a little space is unto Israel until the fulness of the Gentiles be brought in: |
[25]Οὐ γὰρ θέλω ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, τὸ μυστήριον τοῦτο, ἵνα μὴ ἦτε παρ᾿ ἑαυτοῖς φρόνιμοι, ὅτι πώρωσις ἀπὸ μέρους τῷ ᾿Ισραὴλ γέγονεν ἄχρις οὗ τὸ πλήρωμα τῶν ἐθνῶν εἰσέλθῃ, |
| [26]And then all Israel shall be saved. As it is written, the Redeemer shall come from Sion,ⓘ and turn iniquity from Jakub; |
[26]καὶ οὕτω πᾶς ᾿Ισραὴλ σωθήσεται, καθὼς γέγραπται· ἥξει ἐκ Σιὼν ὁ ῥυόμενος καὶ ἀποστρέψει ἀσεβείας ἀπὸ ᾿Ιακώβ· |
| [27]And then shall be to them my covenant, when I have forgiven them their sins. |
[27]καὶ αὕτη αὐτοῖς ἡ παρ᾿ ἐμοῦ διαθήκη, ὅταν ἀφέλωμαι τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν. |
| [28]But, in [regard of] the gospel, they are enemies on your account; and, in the election, they are beloved on account of the fathers. |
[28]κατὰ μὲν τὸ εὐαγγέλιον ἐχθροὶ δι᾿ ὑμᾶς, κατὰ δὲ τὴν ἐκλογὴν ἀγαπητοὶ διὰ τοὺς πατέρας· |
| [29]For Aloha turneth not in his gift and in his vocation. |
[29]ἀμεταμέλητα γὰρ τὰ χαρίσματα καὶ ἡ κλῆσις τοῦ Θεοῦ. |
| [30]For as you also were not obedient unto Aloha at the first, and now have received mercy through their disobedience; |
[30]ὥσπερ γὰρ καὶ ὑμεῖς ποτε ἠπειθήσατε τῷ Θεῷ, νῦν δὲ ἠλεήθητε τῇ τούτων ἀπειθείᾳ, |
| [31]So also these are now disobedient for the mercy that is upon you, that upon them also might be mercy. |
[31]οὕτω καὶ οὗτοι νῦν ἠπείθησαν, τῷ ὑμετέρῳ ἐλέει ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐλεηθῶσι· |
| [32]For Aloha hath included them all in disobedience, that upon all he might show mercy. |
[32]συνέκλεισε γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς πάντας εἰς ἀπείθειαν, ἵνα τοὺς πάντας ἐλεήσῃ. |
| [33]O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of Aloha, whose judgments man searcheth not, and whose ways are inscrutable! |
[33]῏Ω βάθος πλούτου καὶ σοφίας καὶ γνώσεως Θεοῦ! ὡς ἀνεξερεύνητα τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνεξιχνίαστοι αἱ ὁδοὶ αὐτοῦ! |
| [34]For who hath known the mind of the Lord, or who hath been his counsellor? |
[34]τίς γὰρ ἔγνω νοῦν Κυρίου; ἢ τίς σύμβουλος αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο; |
| [35]Or who hath first given to him, that so he should receive from him? |
[35]ἢ τίς προέδωκεν αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀνταποδοθήσεται αὐτῷ; |
| [36]For all is of him, and all in him, and all by him. To him be praises and benedictions unto the age of ages. Amen. |
[36]ὅτι ἐξ αὐτοῦ καὶ δι᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰς αὐτὸν τὰ πάντα. αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας· ἀμήν. |
