< Romans 5 >
1 Therefore having been justified on the principle of faith, we have peace towards God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Koulye a, paske nou gen konfyans nan Bondye, Bondye fè nou gras, n'ap viv san kè sote ak Bondye, gremesi Jezikri, Seyè nou an.
2 by whom we have also access by faith into this favour in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God.
Paske nou gen konfyans nan li, Jezi fè nou antre nan favè Bondye. Epi n'ap kenbe fèm kote nou kanpe a. Nou pa manke kontan paske nou gen espwa resevwa pa nou nan pouvwa Bondye a ansanm avèk li.
3 And not only [that], but we also boast in tribulations, knowing that tribulation works endurance;
Nou pa manke kontan menm lè n'ap soufri.
4 and endurance, experience; and experience, hope;
Poukisa? Paske nou konnen lè n'ap soufri sa fè nou gen pasyans. Lè nou gen pasyans konsa, sa ban nou kouraj pou nou soufri. Plis nou gen kouraj, se plis nou gen espwa.
5 and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by [the] Holy Spirit which has been given to us:
Espwa sa a p'ap janm twonpe nou, paske Bondye te fè nou wè jan l' renmen nou lè li ban nou Sentespri li.
6 for we being still without strength, in [the] due time Christ has died for [the] ungodly.
Se konsa, lè nou pa t' kapab fè anyen pou tèt pa nou, Kris la mouri pou tout moun ki meprize Bondye, nan tan Bondye te fikse pou sa te rive a.
7 For scarcely for [the] just [man] will one die, for perhaps for [the] good [man] some one might also dare to die;
Se pa fasil pou ou jwenn yon moun asepte mouri pou yon nonm ki gen rezon. Ou ta ka jwenn yonn konsa ki ta gen kouraj mouri pou yon nonm debyen.
8 but God commends his love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
Sou pwen sa a, Bondye moutre nou jan li renmen nou anpil; paske nou t'ap fè peche toujou lè Kris la mouri pou nou.
9 Much rather therefore, having been now justified in [the power of] his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath.
Se paske li bay san li pou nou kifè koulye a Bondye fè nou gras. Nou pa bezwen mande si Kris la p'ap delivre nou tou anba kòlè Bondye.
10 For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in [the power of] his life.
Nou te lènmi ak Bondye lè Pitit Bondye a mouri pou l' te fè nou byen ak Bondye ankò. Koulye a nou se zanmi Bondye, nou pa bezwen mande si lavi Pitit Bondye a p'ap delivre nou.
11 And not only [that], but [we are] making our boast in God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom now we have received the reconciliation.
Epi se pa sa sèlman. Nou jwenn tout plezi nou nan Bondye, gremesi Jezikri, Seyè nou an, ki fè nou byen ak Bondye ankò depi koulye a.
12 For this [cause], even as by one man sin entered into the world, and by sin death; and thus death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Se poutèt yon sèl moun peche antre sou latè. Peche a louvri pòt pou lanmò. Se konsa lanmò vin pou tout moun, paske tout moun fè peche.
13 (for until law sin was in [the] world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law;
Peche te deja sou latè lontan anvan Lalwa Moyiz la. Men, paske pa t' gen lalwa, Bondye te fèmen je l' sou peche.
14 but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is [the] figure of him to come.
Men, soti nan tan Adan rive nan tan Moyiz, lanmò te donminen sou tout moun, malgre yo pa t' fè peche tankou Adan ki te dezobeyi Bondye. Adan, se te pòtre moun ki te gen pou vini an.
15 But [shall] not the act of favour [be] as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which [is] by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.
Men, peche Adan an pa menm bagay ak kado Bondye bay pou gremesi a. Se fòt yon sèl moun ki lakòz yon bann lòt moun mouri. Men, favè Bondye a gen plis pouvwa toujou. Gremesi yon sèl moun, Jezikri, Bondye bay anpil moun yon kado ki pi gwo toujou.
16 And [shall] not as by one that has sinned [be] the gift? For the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.
Gen yon lòt diferans ankò ant kado Bondye a ak konsekans peche Adan an. Apre yon sèl moun te fin peche, lè yo jije moun, yo tout tonbe anba kondannasyon. Men, apre tout kantite peche moun fè, Bondye fè yo yon favè, li fè yo gras.
17 For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ: )
Se vre wi. Poutèt peche yon sèl moun, lanmò te donminen akòz li menm sèlman. Men, gremesi yon sèl moun tou, Jezikri, nou jwenn plis toujou: tout moun ki resevwa favè Bondye a an kantite, tout moun ki resevwa kado Bondye a lè li fè yo gras, yo gen pou yo viv, pou yo donminen akòz Kris la.
18 so then as [it was] by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.
Se sak fè menm jan fòt yon sèl moun lakòz tout moun kondannen, konsa tou gremesi yon sèl moun ki mache dwat devan Bondye, tout moun delivre anba jijman kondannasyon, yo jwenn lavi.
19 For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.
Si dezobeyisans yon sèl moun lakòz yon foul moun fè peche, konsa tou obeyisans yon sèl moun lakòz Bondye va fè anpil moun gras.
20 But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,
Lalwa antre nan koze a pou fè moun peche plis toujou. Men, kote moun fè plis peche a, se la favè Bondye a vide pi rèd sou yo.
21 in order that, even as sin has reigned in [the power of] death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
Se sak fè, menm jan peche a te bay lanmò lè l' te donminen sou nou, konsa tou lè se favè Bondye a ki donminen sou nou, li fè moun gras, li ba yo lavi ki pa janm fini an, gremesi Jezikri, Seyè nou an. (aiōnios )
