Romans 8
1 THERE is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Na, kahore e tau te he inaianei ki te hunga i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath liberated me from the law of sin and of death.
Na te ture hoki a te Wairua o te ora i roto i a Karaiti Ihu ahau i atea ai i te ture a te hara, a te mate.
3 For that which was impossible by the law, inasmuch as it was impotent through the flesh, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in that flesh:
Ko te mea kihai i taea e te ture, he ngoikore nona i te kikokiko, tonoa mai ana e te Atua tana Tama, i te ahua o te kikokiko hara, hei whakahere ano mo te hara, a whakataua ana e ia te he ki te hara i roto i te kikokiko:
4 that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled by us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Kia rite ai to te ture tikanga i roto i a tatou, kahore nei e haere i runga i ta te kikokiko, engari i ta te Wairua.
5 For they who are after the flesh, mind the things of the flesh; but they who are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
Ko te hunga hoki i runga i ta te kikokiko, whakaaro ana ratou ki o te kikokiko; ko te hunga ia i runga i ta te Wairua, ki o te Wairua.
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Ko to te kikokiko whakaaro hoki he mate, ko to te Wairua ia he ora, he rangimarie:
7 Because the propensity of the flesh is inimical against God: for it is not in subjection to the law of God, neither indeed can it be.
He tikanga whawhai hoki ki te Atua te whakaaro ki te kikokiko: e kore nei hoki e ngawari ki te ture a te Atua, kahore ano e ahei kia ngawari:
8 They then who are in the flesh, cannot please God.
A e kore e taea e te hunga i te kikokiko te whakamanawareka ki te Atua.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. But if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
Otiia kahore koutou i te kikokiko, engari i te Wairua, ki te mea e noho ana te Wairua o te Atua i roto i a koutou. Ki te kahore ia te Wairua o te Karaiti i tetahi, ehara tenei i a ia.
10 But if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead on account of sin; but the Spirit is alive through righteousness.
Tena ki te mea kei roto a te Karaiti i a koutou, he tupapaku te tinana i te hara, he ora ia te wairua i te tika.
11 But if the Spirit of him who hath raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he who raised Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his indwelling Spirit in you.
Ki te noho ia i roto i a koutou te Wairua o te kaiwhakaara o Ihu i te hunga mate, mana, ma te kaiwhakaara o Karaiti Ihu i roto i te hunga mate, e whakaora ake ano o koutou tinana mate ki tona Wairua e noho na i roto i a koutou.
12 Truly then we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Na reira, e oku teina, kahore he tikanga o te kikokiko kei runga i a tatou, kia whai tatou i tana:
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye are ready to die: but if by the Spirit ye mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
Ki te noho hoki koutou i runga i ta te kikokiko, ka mate koutou; ki te mea ia ka whakamate koutou i nga mahi a te tinana, he mea na te Wairua, ka ora koutou.
14 For as many as are guided by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Ko te hunga hoki e arahina ana e te Wairua o te Atua, he tama ratou na te Atua.
15 For ye have not received a spirit of bondage again unto fear; but ye have received a Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father.
He teka hoki he wairua pononga kua riro nei i a koutou, e mataku ai ano koutou; engari kua riro i a koutou te Wairua e mea ana i a koutou hei tamariki ake, e karanga ai koutou, E Apa, e Pa.
16 The same spirit beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
Ko taua Wairua ra ano hei whakaae ake ki o tatou wairua, he tamariki tatou na te Atua:
17 But if children, then heirs; heirs indeed of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be we suffer with him, that we may also together with him be glorified.
Ki te mea hoki he tamariki, kati mo tatou te kainga; mo tatou te kainga o te Atua, mo tatou tahi ko te Karaiti; kia mamae rawa ake ai tatou tahi me ia, Ka whakakororiatia ngatahitia tatou me ia.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of the present moment are not worthy to be placed against the future glory that shall be revealed to us.
Ki toku whakaaro iho hoki, he kore noa iho nga mamae o tenei wa, ki te whakaritea ki te kororia e whakakitea mai ki a tatou a mua.
19 For the eager expectation of the creation is waiting for the revelation of the children of God.
Ko te tumanako hoki o te mea i hanga e tatari ana ki te whakakitenga mai o nga tama a te Atua.
20 For the creation was made subject to vanity, not voluntarily, but by him who made it subject,
Kua meinga hoki te tekateka noa hei rangatira mo te mea i hanga, ehara i te mea na tenei ake i whakaae, engari na ta te kaiwhakarite i pai ai, i runga i te tumanako,
21 in hope that the same creation shall be emancipated from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Tera taua mea i hanga e whakaateatia mai i te whakataurekarekatanga a te pirau, whakarangatiratia ake ki roto ki te kororia o nga tamariki a te Atua.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth together and travaileth in birth to this moment.
E mohio ana hoki tatou, kei te ngunguru tahi, kei te mamae tahi, nga mea hanga katoa taea noatia tenei ra.
23 And not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan in ourselves, expecting the adoption, the redemption of our body.
Ehara i te mea ko tera anake, engari ko tatou ano hoki kua whiwhi nei ki te hua matamua, ara ki te Wairua, ina, e aue ana hoki tatou i roto i a tatou, e tatari ana ki te whakatamarikitanga, ara ki te whakaoranga o o tatou tinana.
24 For by hope we have been saved: now hope seen is not hope; for that which any man seeth how doth he yet hope for?
Na te tumanako hoki tatou i ora ai: tena ka kitea te mea e tumanakohia atu ana, kore ake te tumanako: ko wai oti e tumanako ki te mea e kitea nei e ia?
25 But if we hope for what we see not, we with patience expect it.
Ki te tumanako atu ia tatou ki te mea kahore nei e kitea, katahi ka ata taria mariretia atu e tatou.
26 In like manner also the Spirit affords assistance to our infirmities: for even this, what we should pray for as we ought, we know not: but the same Spirit more abundantly maketh intercession for us with groanings unutterable.
Waihoki ko te wairua hei hoa mo tatou e ngoikore nei: kahore hoki tatou e matau me pehea e tika ai ta tatou inoi: otiia ko te Wairua tonu ano te inoi ana mo tatou ki ona aue e kore nei e taea te whakahua.
27 Now he that trieth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, for he maketh intercession for the saints according to God’s will.
A, ko te kaititiro i nga ngakau, e mohio ana ki te hinengaro o te Wairua, ko tera hoki e inoi ana mo te hunga tapu i runga i ta te Atua i pai ai.
28 But we know that to those who love God all things work together for good, even to those who are called according to his purpose.
Na e matau ana tatou, kei te mahi tahi nga mea katoa i te pai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki te Atua, ara mo te hunga i karangatia i runga i tana i whakatakoto ai.
29 For whom he foreknew, he predestinated also to a conformity with the image of his Son, that he might be the first-begotten among many brethren.
Ko ana hoki i mohio ai i mua, E whakaritea ano e ia i mua kia rite ki te ahua o tana Tama, kia ai ia hei maunga i roto i nga teina tokomaha.
30 But whom he predestinated, those also he called: and whom he called, those also he justified: but whom he justified, those also he glorified.
A, ko ana i whakarite ai i mua, ko ena ano i karangatia e ia: a, ko ana i karanga ai, ko ena ano i whakatikaia e ia: a, ko ana i whakatika ai, ko ena ano i whakakororiatia e ia.
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who shall be against us?
Na, kia pehea ta tatou korero ki enei mea? Ki te mea ko te Atua hei hoa mo tatou, ko wai hei whawhai ki a tatou?
32 He who even spared not his own Son, but freely delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also, together with him, freely give us all things?
Ko ia kihai nei i kaiponu i tana ake Tama, heoi tukua mai ana e ia mo tatou katoa, e kore ianei ia e tapiri noa mai ki a ia i nga mea katoa mo tatou?
33 Who shall put in an accusation against the elect of God? God? He is their justifier.
Ko wai hei whakapa he ki a te Atua i whiriwhiri ai? Ko te Atua ra hei whakatika;
34 Who is he that condemneth? Christ? He died, yea, rather, also is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Ko wai ianei hei whakatau he? Ko Karaiti Ihu ra, i mate nei, ae rawa hoki, ko ia ra kua whakaarahia ake nei i te mate, a kei te ringa matau o te Atua, ko ia hoki kei te inoi mo tatou.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall distress of circumstances, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?
Ma wai tatou e momotu ke i te aroha o te Karaiti? Ma te whakapawera ranei, ma te mamae, ma te whakatoi, ma e matekai, ma te kakahukore, ma te mate ka tata, ma te hoari ranei?
36 As it is written, “That for thy sake we have been put to death the whole day long; we have been reckoned indeed as sheep for slaughter.”
Ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, Na te whakaaro ki a koe matou i whakamatea ai i te ra roa nei; kiia ana matou hei hipi e patua ana.
37 But in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Engari i enei mea katoa hira ake te wikitoria i a tatou, he mea nana i aroha nei ki a tatou.
38 For I am assured that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor those to come,
U tonu hoki toku whakaaro, e kore te mate, te ora ranei, e kore nga anahera, nga rangatiratanga ranei, e kore nga mea onaianei, e kore nga mea e puta mai a mua, e kore nga mana,
39 nor exaltation, nor deepest depression, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
E kore te tiketike, e kore te hohonu, e kore tetahi atu mea hanga, e kaha ki te momotu i a tatou i te aroha o te Atua, i tera i roto nei i a Karaiti Ihu, i to tatou Ariki.
