Romans 8
1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Akaako lino takwe kupegwa mulandu kulibaabo bali muliKkilisito Jesu.
2 For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death.
Nkaambo mulawu wa Muuya wabumi muliKkilisito Jesu wamwangunununa kuzwa kumulawu wachibi a chalufu.
3 For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,
Nakambo zyakatali kuchitwa amulawu mukuti wakalindizuzikide akaambo kanyama, Leza wakachita. Wakatuma Mwana wakwe mulombe muchikozyanyo chenyama yechibi kuzooba chipo chachibi, alimwi wakapa mulandu kunyama.
4 so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
Wakachita echi kuchitila kuti ziyanda mulawu zikonzye kuzuzikizigwa mulindiswe, iswe nitweenda pe pe munyama, pele mbuli mumuya.
5 Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh; but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
Aabo bapona chenyama babika miyeeyo yabo kuzintu zyenyama, pele aabo bapona mbuli muMuuya babika miyeyo yabo kuzintu zyaMuuya.
6 The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace,
Nkaambo miyeeyo iibikidwe kunyama ndufu, pele miyeyo iibikidwe kumuuya mbuumi a lumuuno.
7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so.
Miyeeyo iibikidwe kunyama ilakalala kunembo lyaLeza, nkambo tiilifwinsyi kumulawu waLeza, nikuba kukonzya kuchita oobo.
8 Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God.
Aabo balimunyama tabakonzyi kubotezya Leza.
9 You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.
Nikubaboobo, tamuli munyama pe pele mu Muuya, na umwi katakwe muuya katakwe muuya wa Kkilisito tewakwe pe.
10 But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.
Na Kkilisito ulimulindime, mubili ulifwide kukulemeka kuchibi, pele muuya uliponede ku mubululami.
11 And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.
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.
12 Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.
Elyo lino, nobakwesu, ndiswe basikukweleta, pele pe pe kunyama kunyama kuti tupone kunyama.
13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Akaako na mwapona chenyama, mwaambakufwa, pele na aMuuya mubika mubili kumilimu yalufu, muyopona.
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
Nkambo mbuli biingi mbubazulwidwa aMuuya wa Leza, abambabo bana ba Leza.
15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery that returns you to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”
Temwakatambula muuya wabuzike kuti mupone mukuyowa limbi; pele mwakatambula Muuya wabwana, anguwo mulompolola kuti, “Abba, Taata!”
16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.
Muuya wakwe wazuminana a Muuya wesu kuti tulibana ba Leza.
17 And if we are children, then we are heirs: heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him, so that we may also be glorified with Him.
Na kuli bana, banakukalya, banakukalya ba Leza. Alimwi tuliswanizigilwe a Kkilisito, na nchoonzyo tulafwabisigwa antomwe anguwe kuti tukakonzye kulemekwa antomwe anguwe.
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.
Nkambo ndayeya kuti machise achiindi achino tayelene abulemu buyotondezegwa kulindinywe.
19 The creation waits in eager expectation for the revelation of the sons of God.
Nkambo bulangizi bupati bwazilengwa bulilindide kutondezegwa kwabana ba Leza.
20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope
Nkambo bulengwa bwakasampawulwa, pepe mukuyanda kwabo, pele akambo kayoyo wakazichita, mubulangizi.
21 that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
bwakuti bulengwe bwini buyogwisigwa kuzwa kubuzike kuya kukunyonyonyoka, alimwi kuti bayoyetwa mulwangunuko lwabulemu bwabana ba Leza.
22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time.
Nkambo tulizi kuti zilengwa zyoonse zilalila kapati akubeleka mubuchise antomwe nikubalino.
23 Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.
Kutali echo luzutu, pesi aswebo tobeni, nituli akabalwe balwe ka Muuya, tulalila kapati mukati kesu, awo nituyolinda chabulangizi kukuchitwa kwesu bwana, kwangununwa kwamibili yesu.
24 For in this hope we were saved; but hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he can already see?
Nkambo mubulangizioobu twakafutulwa. Nkambo ngwani uulangilila nchatabwene?
25 But if we hope for what we do not yet see, we wait for it patiently.
Pele tulangilila eecho nchitutabwene pe, tulachilindila chakukazika moyo.
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how we ought to pray, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans too deep for words.
Munzila iliboobo, eelyo Muuya ulatugwasizya munkompami zyesu. Nkambo tatuzi pe mbutweelede kukomba, pele Muuya mwini ulatukombelezezya amajwi atambiki.
27 And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Oowo ulingula moyo ulizi miyeyo ya Muuya, mukuti ulatukombelezezya mukwiminina basalali ba Leza mbuli mukuyanda kwa Leza.
28 And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose.
Tulizi kuti kulibabo bayanda Leza, ubeleka zintu zyoonse aantomwe kumubotu, kulibaabo bayitidwe kumakaanze akwe.
29 For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.
Nkambo aabo mpakazi kale wakabambila kuti bakendelane abuboneke bwa Mwana wakwe, kuti akabe mwana mutanzi akati kabakkulana biingi.
30 And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified.
Aabo mbakakanzila, aba wakabayita alimwi. Aabo mbakayita, wakabasalazya. Aabo mbakasalazya wakabalemya.
31 What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Lino tutyeni azintu eezi? Na Leza kaliwesu, ngwani uutukatazya?
32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?
Ooyo wakatakasya Mwana wakwe pele wakamwabila ndiswe toonse, uyoleka buti alubo kuti akatupe zintu zyoonse mulinguwe chakwangunuka.
33 Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.
Ngwani utakeete intuko aatala abasale ba Leza? Leza nguwe uululamika.
34 Who is there to condemn us? For Christ Jesus, who died, and more than that was raised to life, is at the right hand of God—and He is interceding for us.
Ngwani uupa mulandu? Kkilisito Jesu nguwe wakafwa - kwinda oobo, wakabisgwa - uuli kuchilisyo cha Leza, alimwi uuli kutukombelezezya.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
Ngwani utakatwanzanye kuluyando lwa Kkilisito? Nkupenzegwana? kubulikilwa na, kusukusigwa, na nzala, na kwenda maya, na ntenda, na nipanga?
36 As it is written: “For Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”
Mbuli mbukulembedwe, “Akambo kakujanina kwenu tulajayigwa buzuba boonse. Twakachitidwe mpuli mbelele iyanda kuyojayigwa.”
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
Kulizyonse ezi zintu tulibazundi kwiinda muliwoyo iwakatuyanda.
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,
Nkambo ndakazibisigwa kuti nikuba lufu, nikuba bunini, nikuba bangelo, nikuba basinsimi nikuba zintu ziliwo, nikuba zizosika, nikuba munguzu,
39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
nikuba bulamfu, nikuba bunike, nikuba chintu chakalengwa, chiyokonzya kutwaanzanisya kuzwa kuluyando lwa Leza, luli muli Kkilisito Jesu Mwami wesu.
