Romans 8
1 For this cause those who are in Christ Jesus will not be judged as sinners.
Neco, lino bonse abo bekatana pamo ne Yesu Klistu baliyapo mulandu, ni bayawu.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
Pakwinga mulawo wa Mushimu Uswepa uyo weshikutupa buyumi mukwikatana ne Yesu Klistu ulansungululu kufuma ku mulawo wa bwipishi ne lufu.
3 For what the law was not able to do because it was feeble through the flesh, God, sending his Son in the image of the evil flesh, and as an offering for sin, gave his decision against sin in the flesh:
Lesa walensa ibyo Milawo ya Mose njoyalabula kucikonsha kwinsa, pakwinga bwikalo bwabuntu bwalikuba bwapendamina ku byaipa bwalabatyompwesha. Neco, walombolosha bwipishi bwa buntu mpwalatuma Mwanendi uyo walesa kakute mubili eti wetu afwe otwalepisha, kwambeti ne mubili wopelowo akakome bwipishi.
4 So that what was ordered by the law might be done in us, who are living, not in the way of the flesh, but in the way of the Spirit.
Lesa walensa bintu ibi, kwambeti bululami ubo Milawo ya Mose ncoyalikuyanda cinshike mwakupwililila muli njafwe. Lino afwe nkatulakonkelenga cilayandanga bwikalo bwaipa bwabuntu bwakusemwa nabo, Nsombi cilayandanga Mushimu Uswepa.
5 For those who are living in the way of the flesh give their minds to the things of the flesh, but those who go in the way of the Spirit, to the things of the Spirit.
Bantu balanyumfwilinga bintu bilayadanga bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwa kusemwa nabo, bakute kubika myoyo pa bintu bilayandanga bwikalo bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo. Nabo balanyunfwilinga Mushimu Uswepa bakute kubika myoyo pa bintu bilayandaga Mushimu Uswepa.
6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:
Nomba kubika moyo pa bintu bya pa bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo kukute kuleta lufu, nsombi kubika moyo pa bintu bya ku Mushimu Uswepa kukute kutwala ku buyumi ne lumuno.
7 Because the mind of the flesh is opposite to God; it is not under the law of God, and is not able to be:
Bantu bakute kubika myoyo pa bwikalo bwaipa bwabuntu bwa kusemwa nabo, bakute kupelana ne Lesa. Bantu balico nkabakute kukonkela Milawo ya Lesa, kayi kwamba cakubinga, nkabela kwikonkela.
8 So that those who are in the flesh are not able to give pleasure to God.
Nomba bantu babika myoyo pa bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo bulico nkabela kukondwelesha Lesa.
9 You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God is in you. But if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is not one of his.
Neco amwe nkamulenshinga bintu bilayandanga bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo, nsombi mulenshinga bilayandanga Mushimu Uswepa, na cakubinga Mushimu wa Lesa ulekalanga mulinjamwe. Na muntu liyawa Mushimu wa Yesu Klistu, ekwambeti nteyo wakendi Klistu.
10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Lino na Yesu Klistu wikala mulinjamwe, nambi mubili wenu ukafwe pacebo ca bwipishi, nsombi mushimu wenu nukabe ne buyumi, pakwinga Lesa lamubono eti mwalulama.
11 But if the Spirit of him who made Jesus come again from the dead is in you, he who made Christ Jesus come again from the dead will in the same way, through his Spirit which is in you, give life to your bodies which now are under the power of death.
Nomba lino Mushimu wa Lesa, uyo walapundusha Yesu kubafu ekala mulinjamwe, popelapo uyo walapundusha Klistu nakape buyumi mibili yenu ikute kufwa kupitila mu mushimu wakendi uli mulinjamwe.
12 So then, my brothers, we are in debt, not to the flesh to be living in the way of the flesh:
Neco mobanse, tukute nkongole, nsombi nkongole yakendi nteyo yakwambeti twikalenga mubuyumi bwakwinsa bintu bilayandanga bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo sobwe.
13 For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life.
Pakwinga na mulakonkelenga bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo, nimukafwe. Nsombi na kupitila mu Mushimu Uswepa mushina lunkumbwa lwa bwikalo bwaipa bwa buntu bwakusemwa nabo, nimukabe ne buyumi.
14 And all those who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
Abo bonse bakute kutanguninwa ne Mushimu wa Lesa ebana ba Lesa.
15 For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.
Pakwinga Mushimu Lesa ngwalamupa nkakute kumusandula basha, kwambeti mubenga ne buyowa sobwe. Nsombi Mushimuwo ukute kumusandula kuba bana ba Lesa, kayi mu ngofu shakendi, pakupaila tukute kwambeti, “Abba! Ta!”
16 The Spirit is witness with our spirit that we are children of God:
Mushimu Uswepa eukute kwinshila bukamboni ne mushimu wetu kwambeti tobana ba Lesa.
17 And if we are children, we have a right to a part in the heritage; a part in the things of God, together with Christ; so that if we have a part in his pain, we will in the same way have a part in his glory.
Lino na njafwe bana ba Lesa, nitukatambule bileleko mbyabambila bantu bakendi, kayi afwe pamo ne Klistu nitukatambule ibyo Lesa mbyalamubambila. Pakwinga tulanyumfunga byeshikubaba pamo ne Klistu, nenjafwe nitukatambule bulemeneno pamo nendiye.
18 I am of the opinion that there is no comparison between the pain of this present time and the glory which we will see in the future.
Ame ndabononga kwambeti mapensho ayo ngotulakumananga nawo cindi cino nkaelana ne bulemeneno bwa Lesa mbwalabamba mbweshakatuboneshe kuntangu.
19 For the strong desire of every living thing is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.
Byonse mbyalalenga bilapembelelenga mwakuyandishisha kwambeti Lesa aleshe bana bendi patuba.
20 For every living thing was put under the power of change, not by its desire, but by him who made it so, in hope
Pakwinga Lesa walasandula bilengwa kuba byabula ncito, kutambeti byalayanda kwambeti kubeco sobwe, nsombi kwalikuba kuyanda kwa Lesa. Nomba nabyoyo bilapembelelenga ici,
21 That all living things will be made free from the power of death and will have a part with the free children of God in glory.
cakwambeti busuba nabumbi nabyoyo bilengwa bikasunguluwe ku busha bwa kubola ne kutambula bulemeneno ne kusunguluka kwa bana ba Lesa.
22 For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.
Tucinsheti kushikila lino bilengwa byonse bilatongelenga, cebo ca bishikubaba eti mutukashi pacindi cakendi ca kutumbuka.
23 And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.
Nomba ntebyo bilengwa ibi byonka bilatongelenga sobwe. Nsombi nenjafwe otukute Mushimu Uswepa uwo euli cipo cakutanguna Lesa ncalatupa, tulatongelenga mu myoyo, pakupembelela kwambeti Lesa atutambuleti bana bakendi, ne kupulusha mibili yetu.
24 For our salvation is by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for who is hoping for what he sees?
Cakubinga Lesa walatupulusha cebo cakupembelela kuli ico, nomba na tulapembelelenga bintu mbyotulabononga, uko nteko kupembelela sobwe.
25 But if we have hope for that which we see not, then we will be able to go on waiting for it.
Nomba na tulapembelelenga bintu mbyotwalabula kubonapo ne menso, tukute kupembelela camoyonteka.
26 And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;
Nicimocimo, nawo Mushimu Uswepa ukute kutunyamfwilisha, afwe otwatyompwa, tutacinshi nemotwelela kupailila. Weco Mushimu Uswepa eukute kutupaililako mukutongela kwetu kutambiki.
27 And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.
Nomba Lesa uyo ukute kulanga bili mukati mwa myoyo ya bantu, ukute kwinshiba Mushimu Uswepa ncolayeyenga, pakwinga Mushimu ukute kubasengelako bantu ba Lesa kwelana ne kuyanda kwa Lesa.
28 And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.
Kayi tucinsheti pabintu byonse bikute kwinshika Lesa ukute kwendesha bintu byonse munshila yakwambeti bintu byende cena kuli abo bamusuni, mbwalakuwa kwelana ne kuyanda kwakendi.
29 Because those of whom he had knowledge before they came into existence, were marked out by him to be made like his Son, so that he might be the first among a band of brothers:
Pakwinga bantu abo Lesa mbwalasalila limo, nendi walabapatulila limo kwambeti babe mbuli Mwanendi, kwambeti nendi abe mwanamukulene mumukowa.
30 And those who were marked out by him were named; and those who were named were given righteousness; and to those to whom he gave righteousness, in the same way he gave glory.
Lesa nkalabapatulowa, nsombi kayi walabakuwa. Kayi nkalabakuwowa, nsombi embwalabalulamika. Neco walabayabilako bulemeneno bwakendi.
31 What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
Lino ngatwamba cani pali byonse ibi? Na Lesa uli kulubasu lwetu, niyani welela kutulwana?
32 He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?
Cakubinga nkela kuba Lesa, uyo walabula kumukanisha Mwanendi, Lesa walabenga Mwanendi cebo canjafwe. Sena ngawalilwa kutupa bintu byonse kwabulyo?
33 Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil;
Nomba niyani wela kubapa mulandu bantu Lesa mbwalasala? Abo mbwakute kuboneti baliya mulandu nibayuwa!
34 Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part.
Weco lino paliyawa muntu wela kubombolosha kwambeti bakute mulandu. Sobwe nte Yesu Klistu uyo walafwa, nambi twamboweti uyo walapunduka kubafu, uyo uli kucikasa cakululyo kwa Lesa, endiye ukute kutusengelako pamenso a Lesa.
35 Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword?
Nomba lino nibani bela kutulekanisha ku lusuno lwa Klistu? Sena nimapensho, nambi buyumuyumu, nambi kupenshewa, nambi nsala, nambi bukandu, nambi byeshikuyosha, nambi lufu?
36 As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.
Pakwinga Mabala akute kwambeti, “Pacebo ca njamwe busuba buli bonse bakute kuyanda kutushina. Pamenso pabo tulyeti mbelele shilenga akushinwa.”
37 But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love.
Nsombi byonsebi twabikoma kupwilila pacebo ca uyo walatusuna.
38 For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers,
Neco ndicinshi mwakutatonshanya kwambeti paliya cintu cela kutulekanisha ku lusuno lwakendi. Lufu nambi buyumi, nambi bangelo, nambi bendeleshi, nambi bintu bilipo lino, nambi ibyo byeshi bikaboneke kuntangu, nambi byangofu bilibyonse,
39 Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
nambi byakwilu ne byapanshi, nambi kantu nakambi kalikonse kalalengwa, nteshi kakatulekanishe ku lusuno lwa Lesa, ulo ndotukute mukwikatana pamo ne Yesu Klistu Mwami wetu.
