| Vers | Amharic NT | English: King James Version |
| 1 | እኛም ኃይለኞች የሆንን የደካሞችን ድካም እንድንሸከም ራሳችንንም ደስ እንዳናሰኝ ይገባናል። | We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. |
| 2 | እያንዳንዳችን እንድናንጸው እርሱን ለመጥቀም ባልንጀራችንን ደስ እናሰኝ። | Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. |
| 3 | ክርስቶስ ራሱን ደስ አላሰኘምና፤ ነገር ግን። አንተን የነቀፉበት ነቀፋ ወደቀብኝ ተብሎ እንደ ተጻፈ ሆነበት። | For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me. |
| 4 | በመጽናትና መጻሕፍት በሚሰጡት መጽናናት ተስፋ ይሆንልን ዘንድ አስቀድሞ የተጻፈው ሁሉ ለትምህርታችን ተጽፎአልና። | For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. |
| 5 | በአንድ ልብ ሆናችሁ በአንድ አፍ እግዚአብሔርን፥ እርሱም የጌታችን የኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ አባት፥ ታከብሩ ዘንድ፥ የትዕግሥትና የመጽናናት አምላክ እንደ ክርስቶስ ኢየሱስ ፈቃድ እርስ በርሳችሁ በአንድ አሳብ መሆንን ይስጣችሁ። | Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: |
| 7 | ስለዚህ ክርስቶስ ለእግዚአብሔር ክብር እንደ ተቀበላችሁ እንዲሁ እርስ በርሳችሁ ተቀባበሉ። | Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God. |
| 8 | ለአባቶች የተሰጠውን የተስፋ ቃል ያጸና ዘንድ ደግሞም። ስለዚህ በአሕዛብ መካከል አመሰግንሃለሁ ለስምህም እዘምራለሁ ተብሎ እንደ ተጻፈ፥ አሕዛብ ስለ ምሕረቱ እግዚአብሔርን ያከብሩ ዘንድ፥ ክርስቶስ ስለ እግዚአብሔር እውነት የመገረዝ አገልጋይ ሆነ እላለሁ። | Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers: |
| 10 | ደግሞም። አሕዛብ ሆይ፥ ከሕዝቡ ጋር ደስ ይበላችሁ ይላል። | And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. |
| 11 | ደግሞም። እናንተ አሕዛብ ሁላችሁ፥ ጌታን አመስግኑ ሕዝቦቹም ሁሉ ይወድሱት ይላል። | And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people. |
| 12 | ደግሞም ኢሳይያስ። የእሴይ ሥር አሕዛብንም ሊገዛ የሚነሣው ይሆናል፤ በእርሱ አሕዛብ ተስፋ ያደርጋሉ ይላል። | And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust. |
| 13 | የተስፋ አምላክም በመንፈስ ቅዱስ ኃይል በተስፋ እንድትበዙ በማመናችሁ ደስታንና ሰላምን ሁሉ ይሙላባችሁ። | Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. |
| 14 | እኔም ራሴ ደግሞ፥ ወንድሞቼ ሆይ፥ በበጎነት ራሳችሁ እንደ ተሞላችሁ፥ እውቀትም ሁሉ እንደ ሞላባችሁ፥ እርስ በርሳችሁም ደግሞ ልትገሠጹ እንዲቻላችሁ ስለ እናንተ ተረድቼአለሁ። | And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another. |
| 15 | ነገር ግን አሕዛብ በመንፈስ ቅዱስ ተቀድሰው የተወደደ መሥዋዕት ሊሆኑ፥ ለእግዚአብሔር ወንጌል እንደ ካህን እያገለገልሁ፥ ለአሕዛብ የክርስቶስ ኢየሱስ አገልጋይ እሆን ዘንድ ከእግዚአብሔር በተሰጠኝ ጸጋ ምክንያት ተመልሼ ላሳስባችሁ ብዬ በአንዳንድ ቦታ በድፍረት ጻፍሁላችሁ። | Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God, |
| 17 | እንግዲህ ከእግዚአብሔር ዘንድ በሚሆን ነገር በክርስቶስ ኢየሱስ ትምክህት አለኝ። | I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God. |
| 18 | አሕዛብ እንዲታዘዙ ክርስቶስ በቃልና በሥራ፥ በምልክትና በድንቅ ነገር ኃይል፥ በመንፈስ ቅዱስም ኃይል በእኔ አድርጎ ከሠራው በቀር ምንም ልናገር አልደፍርም፤ ስለዚህ ከኢየሩሳሌም ጀምሬ እስከ እልዋሪቆን ድረስ እየዞርሁ የክርስቶስን ወንጌል ፈጽሜ፤ ሰብኬአለሁ። | For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed, |
| 20 | እንዲሁም በሌላው ሰው መሠረት ላይ እንዳልሠራ የክርስቶስ ስም በተጠራበት ስፍራ ሳይሆን ወንጌልን ለመስበክ ተጣጣርሁ፤ | Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation: |
| 21 | ነገር ግን። ስለ እርሱ ያልተወራላቸው ያያሉ፥ ያልሰሙም ያስተውላሉ ተብሎ እንደ ተጻፈ ነው። | But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand. |
| 22 | ስለዚህ ደግሞ ወደ እናንተ እንዳልመጣ ብዙ ጊዜ ተከለከልሁ። | For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you. |
| 23 | አሁን ግን በዚህ አገር ስፍራ ወደ ፊት ስለሌለኝ፥ ከብዙ ዓመትም ጀምሬ ወደ እናንተ ልመጣ ናፍቆት ስላለኝ፥ | But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you; |
| 24 | ወደ እስጳንያ በሄድሁ ጊዜ ሳልፍ እናንተን እንዳይ፥ አስቀድሜም ጥቂት ብጠግባችሁ ወደዚያ በጉዞዬ እንድትረዱኝ ተስፋ አደርጋለሁ። | Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company. |
| 25 | አሁን ግን ቅዱሳንን ለማገልገል ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም እሄዳለሁ። | But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints. |
| 26 | መቄዶንያና አካይያ በኢየሩሳሌም ቅዱሳን መካከል ያሉትን ድሆች ይረዱ ዘንድ ወደዋልና። | For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. |
| 27 | ወደዋልና፥ የእነርሱም ባለ ዕዳዎች ናቸው፤ አሕዛብ በእነርሱ መንፈሳዊ ነገርን ተካፋዮች ከሆኑ በሥጋዊ ነገር ደግሞ ያገለግሉአቸው ዘንድ ይገባቸዋልና። | It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things. |
| 28 | እንግዲህ ይህን ፈጽሜ ይህን ፍሬ ካተምሁላቸው በኋላ በእናንተ በኩል አልፌ ወደ እስጳንያ እሄዳለሁ፤ | When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain. |
| 29 | ወደ እናንተም ስመጣ በክርስቶስ በረከት ሙላት እንድመጣ አውቃለሁ። | And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ. |
| 30 | ወንድሞች ሆይ፥ ስለ እኔ ወደ እግዚአብሔር እየጸለያችሁ ከእኔ ጋር ትጋደሉ ዘንድ በጌታችን በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስና በመንፈስ ፍቅር እለምናችኋለሁ፤ | Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me; |
| 31 | በእግዚአብሔር ፈቃድ በደስታ ወደ እናንተ መጥቼ ከእናንተ ጋር እንዳርፍ፥ በይሁዳ ካሉት ከማይታዘዙ እድን ዘንድ፥ ለኢየሩሳሌምም ያለኝ አገልግሎቴ ቅዱሳንን ደስ የሚያሰኝ ይሆን ዘንድ ጸልዩ። | That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints; |
| 33 | የሰላምም አምላክ ከሁላችሁ ጋር ይሁን፤ አሜን። | Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen. |
| 6 | That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. | |
| 9 | And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name. | |
| 16 | That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost. | |
| 19 | Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. | |
| 32 | That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed. |
