The Bible

1

Vraaraghyn, yeearree my chree as my phadjer gys Jee son Israel te, dy voddagh ad ve er nyn sauail.

Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

2

Son ta mee gymmyrkey feanish daue dy vel graih jeean oc er Jee, agh cha nee cordail rish tushtey (firrinagh).

For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

3

Son mee-hushtagh jeh cairys Yee, as shirrey dy hoiaghey seose yn chairys oc hene, cha vel ad er injillaghey adhene gys cairys Yee.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

4

Son ta Creest jerrey yn leigh son cairys, da dy chooilley unnane ta credjal.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5

Son ta Moses soiaghey roin yn chairys ta liorish y leigh, Dy bee yn dooinney ta cooilleeney ny reddyn shen, bio lioroo.

For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6

Agh ta'n chairys ta liorish credjue loayrt er yn aght shoh, Ny abbyr ayns dty chree, Quoi hed seose gys niau? (ta shen, dy chur lesh Creest neose)

But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

7

Ny, Quoi hed sheese gys y diunid? (ta shen dy chur lesh Creest seose reesht veih ny merriu)

Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8

Agh cre te gra? Ta'n goo er-gerrey dhyt, dy jarroo ayns dty veeal, as ayns dty chree; ta shen goo yn chredjue ta shin dy phreacheil;

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9

My nee oo lesh dty veeal goaill-rish yn Chiarn Yeesey, as credjal ayns dty chree dy vel Jee er hroggal eh veih ny merriu, bee oo er dty hauail.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10

Son lesh y chree ta dooinney credjal gys cairys, as lesh y veeal ta goaill rish [y chredjue] er ny yannoo gys saualtys.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11

Son ta'n scriptyr gra, Quoi-erbee ta credjal ersyn, nagh bee eh er ny choyrt gys nearey.

For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12

Son cha vel veg y soiagh eddyr yn Hew as y Greek. son ta'n Chiarn cheddin harrish ooilley, berchagh dauesyn ooilley ta geamagh er.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13

Son quoi-erbee nee geamagh er Ennym y Chiarn, bee eh er ny hauail.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

14

Kys eisht nee ad geamagh ersyn, nagh vel ad er chredjal ayn? As kys nee ad credjal aynsyn, nagh vel ad er chlashtyn jeh? As kys nee ad clashtyn fegooish preachoor?

How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

15

As kys nee ad preacheil, mannagh vel ad er nyn goyrt? Myr te scruit, Cre cha aalin ta ny cassyn ocsyn ta preacheil y sushtal dy hee, as cur lhieu naightyn gennal dy nheeghyn mie!

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things

16

Agh cha vel ad ooilley er choyrt biallys da'n sushtal: Son ta Esaias gra, Hiarn, quoi ta er chredjal y goo ain?

But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

17

Myr shen eisht, ta credjue cheet liorish clashtyn, as clashtyn liorish goo Yee.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18

Agh ta mish dy ghra, Nagh vel adsyn er chlashtyn? Ta dy feer, hie yn coraa oc er feaï-ny-cruinney, as ny goan oc gys ny ardjyn sodjey magh jeh'n theihll.

But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

19

Agh ta mish gra, Row shoh gyn-yss da Israel? Ta Moses ro?e er ghra, Nee'm shiu y ghreinnaghey gys eadaghey lioroosyn nagh nee pobble ad, as liorish ashoon ommijagh ver-ym corree erriu.

But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

20

Agh ta Esaias lesh dunnallys smoo gra, Va mee er my gheddyn lioroosyn nagh row dy my hirrey; Va mee er my hoilshaghey dauesyn nagh ren briaght my lurg.

But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

21

Agh rish Israel t'eh gra, Fey-ny-laa ta mee er heeyney magh my laueyn gys pobble roonagh as mee-viallagh.

But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
