En Romanos 9:5 la Traducción del Nuevo Mundo puntúa el versículo de modo que la doxología se refiera a Dios y no a Cristo: “God, who is over all, be praised forever.” [“Dios, que está sobre todos, sea alabado para siempre.”] Esto está realmente en disputa entre los traductores: la New American Bible, la Good News Translation y la Contemporary English Version lo puntúan de la misma manera, mientras que la NIV, la ESV, la NASB y la NRSV no.

La posición de la organización o su explicación posterior: La nota de estudio de la organización afirma: “Grammatically, such a rendering is possible, but the context has to be taken into consideration” [“Gramaticalmente, esa traducción es posible, pero hay que tomar en cuenta el contexto”], y argumenta a partir del pasaje que lo rodea y de la costumbre de Pablo de dirigir las doxologías a Dios.

New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition), “Romans 9:5”

2013 · Romans 9:5 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“To them the forefathers belong, and from them the Christ descended according to the flesh. God, who is over all, be praised forever. Amen.”

The 2013 rendering breaks the verse into two sentences, so that the doxology refers to God rather than to Christ.

The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, “Romans 9:5 (word-for-word English under the Greek)”

1985 · Romans 9:5 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“ἐξ out of ὧν whom ὁ the χριστὸς Christ τὸ the (thing) κατὰ according to σάρκα, flesh, ὁ the (one) ὢν being ἐπὶ upon πάντων, all (things), θεὸς God εὐλογητὸς blessed (one) εἰς into τοὺς the αἰῶνας· ages; ἀμήν. amen.”

The Greek runs on without a full stop. Whether ὁ ὤν ('the one being') continues the description of Christ or begins a new clause about God is a question of punctuation, which the earliest manuscripts do not settle.

Bible Hub parallel translations, “Romans 9:5 in the parallel English versions”

19 de septiembre de 2026 · Bible Hub (reproducing the named copyright translations)

“Christ as God: New International Version “the Messiah, who is God over all, forever praised!”; English Standard Version “is the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever”; New Revised Standard Version “comes the Messiah, who is over all, God blessed forever”. Separate doxology: New American Bible “is the Messiah. God who is over all be blessed forever.”; Good News Translation “May God, who rules over all, be praised forever!”; Contemporary English Version “I pray that God, who rules over all, will be praised forever!””

Romans 9:5 is genuinely disputed among translators quite independently of the New World Translation: the New American Bible, a Roman Catholic translation, punctuates it as the NWT does.

Notes. This quote field compiles renderings quoted separately from one Bible Hub parallel page; it is not a continuous passage. Each rendering was checked word for word against the page, which carries over forty versions.

The Kingdom Interlinear Translation of the Greek Scriptures, “Appendix 2D: “God, Who Is Over All””

1985 · pp.1142-1143 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania

“These translations take ὁ ὤν (ho on) as the beginning of an independent sentence or clause referring to God and pronouncing a blessing upon him for the provisions he made.”

The appendix lists seven translations that punctuate Romans 9:5 as the New World Translation does, including the Revised Standard Version (1952), Moffatt (1935), Today's English Version (1966), the New American Bible (1970) and the New English Bible (1972). It quotes Winer's grammar and Ezra Abbot's 1888 study, which notes a point after σάρκα in codices A, B, C and L.
