Ba Loma 8
1 Akaako lino takwe kupegwa mulandu kulibaabo bali muliKkilisito Jesu.
[There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 Nkaambo mulawu wa Muuya wabumi muliKkilisito Jesu wamwangunununa kuzwa kumulawu wachibi a chalufu.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 Nakambo zyakatali kuchitwa amulawu mukuti wakalindizuzikide akaambo kanyama, Leza wakachita. Wakatuma Mwana wakwe mulombe muchikozyanyo chenyama yechibi kuzooba chipo chachibi, alimwi wakapa mulandu kunyama.
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 Wakachita echi kuchitila kuti ziyanda mulawu zikonzye kuzuzikizigwa mulindiswe, iswe nitweenda pe pe munyama, pele mbuli mumuya.
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 Aabo bapona chenyama babika miyeeyo yabo kuzintu zyenyama, pele aabo bapona mbuli muMuuya babika miyeyo yabo kuzintu zyaMuuya.
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
6 Nkaambo miyeeyo iibikidwe kunyama ndufu, pele miyeyo iibikidwe kumuuya mbuumi a lumuuno.
For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.
7 Miyeeyo iibikidwe kunyama ilakalala kunembo lyaLeza, nkambo tiilifwinsyi kumulawu waLeza, nikuba kukonzya kuchita oobo.
Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 Aabo balimunyama tabakonzyi kubotezya Leza.
So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 Nikubaboobo, tamuli munyama pe pele mu Muuya, na umwi katakwe muuya katakwe muuya wa Kkilisito tewakwe pe.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 Na Kkilisito ulimulindime, mubili ulifwide kukulemeka kuchibi, pele muuya uliponede ku mubululami.
And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.
11 Na Muuya wawooyo wakabusya Jesu kuzwa kubafu ukala mulindinywe, ooyo wakabusya Kklsito kuzwa kubafu uyomupa buumi alimwi kumibili yenu iifwa kwiinda mu Muuya wakwe, uupona mulindinywe.
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Elyo lino, nobakwesu, ndiswe basikukweleta, pele pe pe kunyama kunyama kuti tupone kunyama.
Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 Akaako na mwapona chenyama, mwaambakufwa, pele na aMuuya mubika mubili kumilimu yalufu, muyopona.
For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 Nkambo mbuli biingi mbubazulwidwa aMuuya wa Leza, abambabo bana ba Leza.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 Temwakatambula muuya wabuzike kuti mupone mukuyowa limbi; pele mwakatambula Muuya wabwana, anguwo mulompolola kuti, “Abba, Taata!”
For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 Muuya wakwe wazuminana a Muuya wesu kuti tulibana ba Leza.
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 Na kuli bana, banakukalya, banakukalya ba Leza. Alimwi tuliswanizigilwe a Kkilisito, na nchoonzyo tulafwabisigwa antomwe anguwe kuti tukakonzye kulemekwa antomwe anguwe.
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together.
18 Nkambo ndayeya kuti machise achiindi achino tayelene abulemu buyotondezegwa kulindinywe.
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 Nkambo bulangizi bupati bwazilengwa bulilindide kutondezegwa kwabana ba Leza.
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 Nkambo bulengwa bwakasampawulwa, pepe mukuyanda kwabo, pele akambo kayoyo wakazichita, mubulangizi.
For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected [the same] in hope,
21 bwakuti bulengwe bwini buyogwisigwa kuzwa kubuzike kuya kukunyonyonyoka, alimwi kuti bayoyetwa mulwangunuko lwabulemu bwabana ba Leza.
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 Nkambo tulizi kuti zilengwa zyoonse zilalila kapati akubeleka mubuchise antomwe nikubalino.
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 Kutali echo luzutu, pesi aswebo tobeni, nituli akabalwe balwe ka Muuya, tulalila kapati mukati kesu, awo nituyolinda chabulangizi kukuchitwa kwesu bwana, kwangununwa kwamibili yesu.
And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, [to wit], the redemption of our body.
24 Nkambo mubulangizioobu twakafutulwa. Nkambo ngwani uulangilila nchatabwene?
For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
25 Pele tulangilila eecho nchitutabwene pe, tulachilindila chakukazika moyo.
But if we hope for that we see not, [then] do we with patience wait for [it].
26 Munzila iliboobo, eelyo Muuya ulatugwasizya munkompami zyesu. Nkambo tatuzi pe mbutweelede kukomba, pele Muuya mwini ulatukombelezezya amajwi atambiki.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
27 Oowo ulingula moyo ulizi miyeyo ya Muuya, mukuti ulatukombelezezya mukwiminina basalali ba Leza mbuli mukuyanda kwa Leza.
And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God.
28 Tulizi kuti kulibabo bayanda Leza, ubeleka zintu zyoonse aantomwe kumubotu, kulibaabo bayitidwe kumakaanze akwe.
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose.
29 Nkambo aabo mpakazi kale wakabambila kuti bakendelane abuboneke bwa Mwana wakwe, kuti akabe mwana mutanzi akati kabakkulana biingi.
For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Aabo mbakakanzila, aba wakabayita alimwi. Aabo mbakayita, wakabasalazya. Aabo mbakasalazya wakabalemya.
Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 Lino tutyeni azintu eezi? Na Leza kaliwesu, ngwani uutukatazya?
What shall we then say to these things? If God [be] for us, who [can be] against us?
32 Ooyo wakatakasya Mwana wakwe pele wakamwabila ndiswe toonse, uyoleka buti alubo kuti akatupe zintu zyoonse mulinguwe chakwangunuka.
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Ngwani utakeete intuko aatala abasale ba Leza? Leza nguwe uululamika.
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? [It is] God that justifieth.
34 Ngwani uupa mulandu? Kkilisito Jesu nguwe wakafwa - kwinda oobo, wakabisgwa - uuli kuchilisyo cha Leza, alimwi uuli kutukombelezezya.
Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Ngwani utakatwanzanye kuluyando lwa Kkilisito? Nkupenzegwana? kubulikilwa na, kusukusigwa, na nzala, na kwenda maya, na ntenda, na nipanga?
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 Mbuli mbukulembedwe, “Akambo kakujanina kwenu tulajayigwa buzuba boonse. Twakachitidwe mpuli mbelele iyanda kuyojayigwa.”
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Kulizyonse ezi zintu tulibazundi kwiinda muliwoyo iwakatuyanda.
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 Nkambo ndakazibisigwa kuti nikuba lufu, nikuba bunini, nikuba bangelo, nikuba basinsimi nikuba zintu ziliwo, nikuba zizosika, nikuba munguzu,
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 nikuba bulamfu, nikuba bunike, nikuba chintu chakalengwa, chiyokonzya kutwaanzanisya kuzwa kuluyando lwa Leza, luli muli Kkilisito Jesu Mwami wesu.
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
