Romans 5
1 Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Yeshua Meshikha;
Ngakho sesilungisisiwe ngokholo, silokuthula kuNkulunkulu ngeNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu,
2 through whom we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
okungaye njalo silokungena ngokholo kulumusa esimi kuwo, sizincoma ethembeni lobukhosi bukaNkulunkulu.
3 Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance;
Kakusikho lokhu-ke kuphela, kodwa sizincoma langezinhlupheko, sisazi ukuthi ukuhlupheka kuveza ukubekezela,
4 and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope:
lokubekezela ukuqina, lokuqina ithemba;
5 and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Rukha d'Qudsha who was given to us.
lethemba kalidanisi, ngoba uthando lukaNkulunkulu lutheliwe enhliziyweni zethu ngoMoya oNgcwele esimuphiweyo.
6 For while we were yet weak, at the right time Meshikha died for the ungodly.
Ngoba sisebuthakathaka, ngesikhathi esifaneleyo uKristu wafela abeyisa uNkulunkulu.
7 For rarely does one die for the righteous. Yet perhaps for a good person someone might dare to die.
Ngoba kunzima ukuthi umuntu afele olungileyo; kodwa mhlawumbe kungaba khona ngitsho olesibindi sokufela olungileyo.
8 But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Meshikha died for us.
Kodwa uNkulunkulu uqinisa uthando lwakhe uqobo kithi, ukuthi uKristu wasifela siseyizoni.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath through him.
Ngakho kakhulu-ke, lokhu sesilungisisiwe khathesi ngegazi lakhe, sizasindiswa ngaye elakeni.
10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.
Ngoba uba, lapho siseyizitha, sesibuyisene loNkulunkulu ngokufa kweNdodana yakhe, ikakhulu lokhu sesibuyisene sizasindiswa ngempilo yayo;
11 Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Yeshua Meshikha, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
njalo kakusikho lokhu kuphela, kodwa sizincoma futhi kuNkulunkulu ngeNkosi yethu uJesu Kristu, esesemukele ngaye ukubuyisana.
12 Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; and so death passed to all people, because all sinned.
Ngakho, njengalokhu ngamuntu munye isono sangena emhlabeni, langesono ukufa, ngokunjalo ukufa kwedlulela kubo bonke abantu, ngoba bonke bonile;
13 For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law.
ngoba kuze kufike umlayo isono sasikhona emhlabeni; kodwa isono kasibalelwa, ungekho umlayo,
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adom until Mushe, even over those whose sins weren't like Adom's disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of him who was to come.
kanti ukufa kwabusa kusukela kuAdamu kusiya kuMozisi, laphezu kwalabo ababengonanga okufanana lokweqa kukaAdamu, ongumfanekiso wakhe obezakuza.
15 But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God, and the gift by the grace of the one man, Yeshua Meshikha, abound to the many.
Kodwa kungenjengesiphambeko, sinjalo lesipho somusa. Ngoba uba ngesiphambeko soyedwa abanengi bafa, ikakhulu kwanda kwabanengi umusa kaNkulunkulu, lesipho ngomusa womuntu munye, uJesu Kristu.
16 The gift is not as through one who sinned: for the judgment came by one to condemnation, but the free gift came of many trespasses to justification.
Futhi isipho kasinjengoyedwa owonayo; ngoba isigwebo sasingesisodwa ngasekulahlweni, kodwa isipho somusa ngeseziphambeko ezinengi ngasekulungisisweni.
17 For if by the trespass of the one, death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Yeshua Meshikha.
Ngoba uba ngesiphambeko somuntu oyedwa ukufa kwabusa ngalowo oyedwa, ikakhulu bona abemukela ubunengi bomusa lobesipho sokulunga bazabusa empilweni ngalowo oyedwa, uJesu Kristu.
18 So then as through one trespass, all people were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all people were justified to life.
Ngakho njengoba ngesiphambeko soyedwa isigwebo saba kubo bonke abantu ukuya ekulahlweni, ngokunjalo langokulunga koyedwa umusa weza kubo bonke abantu ukuya ekulungisisweni kwempilo.
19 For as through the one man's disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.
Ngoba njengoba ngokungalaleli komuntu munye abanengi benziwa izoni, ngokunjalo langokulalela koyedwa abanengi bazakwenziwa abalungileyo.
20 The law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly;
Phezu kwalokho umlayo wangena, ukuze isiphambeko sande; kodwa lapho okwanda isono khona, umusa wanda kakhulukazi;
