< Aroma 5 >
1 Tsopano popeza tayesedwa olungama mwa chikhulupiriro, tili ndi mtendere ndi Mulungu kudzera mwa Ambuye athu Yesu Khristu.
Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
2 Iyeyo ndiye amene anatsekulira njira mwachikhulupiriro yolowera mʼchisomo mʼmene takhazikikamo. Ndipo tikukondwerera chiyembekezo cha ulemerero wa Mulungu.
through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand. We rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 Koma si pokhapo ayi, koma ife tikukondweranso mʼmasautso athu chifukwa tikudziwa kuti masautso amatiphunzitsa kupirira.
Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;
4 Ndipo kupirira kumabweretsa makhalidwe, makhalidwe amabweretsa chiyembekezo.
and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope;
5 Ndipo chiyembekezo chimenechi sichitikhumudwitsa chifukwa Mulungu mwa Mzimu Woyera, amene Iye anatipatsa, wadzaza mʼmitima mwathu ndi chikondi chake.
and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 Pakuti pa nthawi yake, tikanali ochimwa, Khristu anatifera anthu osapembedzafe.
For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Sizichitika kawirikawiri kuti munthu wina afere munthu wolungama, ngakhale kuti chifukwa cha munthu wabwino wina atha kulimba mtima kumufera.
For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a good person someone would even dare to die.
8 Koma Mulungu anaonetsa chikondi chake kwa ife chifukwa pamene tinali ochimwabe, Khristu anatifera.
But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Popeza chifukwa cha magazi ake ife tapezeka olungama pamaso pa Mulungu, Iyeyo adzatipulumutsa koposa kotani ku mkwiyo wa Mulungu.
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God’s wrath through him.
10 Pakuti pamene tinali adani a Mulungu, tinayanjanitsidwa ndi Iye kudzera mu imfa ya Mwana wake. Nanga tidzapulumutsidwa bwanji kudzera mʼmoyo wake, titayanjanitsidwa naye?
For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.
11 Sikuti izi zili chomwechi chabe, koma timakondweranso mwa Mulungu kudzera mwa Ambuye athu Yesu Khristu. Kudzera mwa Iye, ife tsopano tayanjanitsidwa ndi Mulungu.
Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 Choncho monga momwe tchimo linalowa mʼdziko lapansi kudzera mwa munthu mmodzi, ndi imfa kudzera mu tchimo, mʼnjirayi imfa inafika kwa anthu onse pakuti onse anachimwa.
Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin, so death passed to all men because all sinned.
13 Pakuti Malamulo asanaperekedwe, tchimo linali mʼdziko lapansi. Koma pamene palibe Malamulo, tchimo silitengedwa kukhala tchimo.
For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law.
14 Komabe, imfa inalamulira kuyambira nthawi ya Adamu mpaka nthawi ya Mose. Inalamulira ngakhalenso pa iwo amene sanachimwe posamvera Malamulo monga anachitira Adamu. Adamuyo amene anali chifaniziro cha wina amene ankabwera.
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.
15 Koma sitingafananitse mphatso yaulereyo ndi kuchimwa kwa anthu. Pakuti ngati anthu ambiri anafa chifukwa cha kuchimwa kwa munthu mmodziyo, kuli koposa bwanji nanga chisomo cha Mulungu ndi mphatso zomwe zinabwera ndi chisomo cha munthu mmodzi, Yesu Khristu, ndi kusefukira kwa ambiri!
But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many.
16 Ndiponso, mphatso ya Mulungu sifanana ndi zotsatira za kuchimwa kwa munthu mmodzi. Chiweruzo chinatsatira tchimo la munthu mmodzi ndi kubweretsa kutsutsidwa koma mphatso inatsatira zolakwa zambiri ndi kubweretsa kulungamitsidwa.
The gift is not as through one who sinned; for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift followed many trespasses to justification.
17 Pakuti ngati, chifukwa cha kulakwa kwa munthu mmodziyo, imfa inalamulira kudzera mwa munthu mmodziyo, kuli koposa bwanji nanga kwa iwo amene adzalandira chisomo chochuluka ndi mphatso yachilungamo, adzalamulira mʼmoyo kudzera mwa munthu mmodzi, Yesu Khristu.
For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.
18 Choncho monga tchimo limodzi linabweretsa kutsutsika pa anthu onse, chimodzimodzinso ntchito imodzi yolungama inabweretsa chilungamo kwa anthu onse ndi kuwapatsa moyo.
So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life.
19 Pakuti kusamvera kwa munthu mmodzi kunasandutsa anthu ambiri kukhala ochimwa, chimodzimodzinso anthu ambiri adzasanduka olungama kudzera mwa munthu mmodzinso.
For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.
20 Malamulo a Mulungu anaperekedwa ndi cholinga chakuti anthu onse azindikire kuchuluka kwa machimo awo. Koma pamene machimo anachuluka, chisomo chinachuluka koposa.
The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly,
21 Choncho monga momwe tchimo linkalamulira anthu ndi kubweretsa imfa pa iwo, chomwecho kunali koyenera kuti chisomo chilamulire pobweretsa chilungamo kwa anthu, ndi kuwafikitsa ku moyo wosatha mwa Yesu Khristu Ambuye athu. (aiōnios )
that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
