Romans 8
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Messiah Jesus.
Yango wana sik’oyo, etumbu ezali lisusu te mpo na bato oyo bazali kati na Yesu-Klisto.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Messiah Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
Pamba te kati na Yesu-Klisto, Mobeko ya Molimo oyo apesaka bomoi ekangoli ngai na bowumbu ya mobeko ya lisumu mpe ya kufa.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;
Pamba te likambo oyo Mobeko ekokaki kosala te mpo ete bomoto ezangisaki yango nguya, Nzambe asalaki yango na kotinda Mwana na Ye, na nzoto oyo ekokani na nzoto ya bato ya masumu, mpo ete akoma likabo mpo na lisumu. Boye, akatelaki masumu etumbu kati na nzoto ya bato.
4 so that the requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
Asalaki bongo mpo ete bosembo oyo Mobeko esengaka ekokisama kati na biso oyo totambolaka te kolanda baposa ya nzoto, kasi kolanda Molimo.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
Bato oyo batambolaka kolanda baposa ya nzoto batiaka makanisi na bango na makambo ya nzoto, kasi ba-oyo batambolaka kolanda Molimo batiaka makanisi na bango na makambo ya Molimo.
6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace;
Baposa ya nzoto ememaka na kufa, kasi baposa ya Molimo ememaka na bomoi mpe na kimia.
7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile towards God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot.
Baposa ya nzoto etombokelaka Nzambe, etosaka Mobeko ya Nzambe te mpe ekotikala kotosa yango ata moke te.
8 And those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Bato oyo batambolaka kolanda baposa ya nzoto bakoki kosepelisa Nzambe te.
9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Messiah, he does not belong to him.
Nzokande bino, botambolaka te kolanda baposa ya nzoto, kasi kolanda baposa ya Molimo, mpo ete Molimo ya Nzambe azali kati na bino. Mpe soki moto azangi Molimo ya Klisto azali mpe moto na Ye te.
10 And if Messiah is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
Kasi soki Klisto azali kati na bino, atako nzoto na bino ekokufa mpo na lisumu, kasi Molimo azali bomoi kati na bino, pamba te bokoma bato ya sembo.
11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Messiah from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Mpe soki Molimo ya Ye oyo asekwisaki Yesu kati na bakufi azali kovanda kati na bino, Ye oyo asekwisaki Klisto kati na bakufi akopesa mpe bomoi epai na banzoto na bino, oyo ebengami na kokufa, na nzela ya Molimo na Ye, oyo avandaka kati na bino.
12 So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Yango wana bandeko na ngai, tozali na niongo—kasi ezali niongo ya nzoto te mpo ete totambola te kolanda baposa ya nzoto.
13 For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Pamba te soki botamboli kolanda baposa ya nzoto bokokufa; kasi soki bobomi, na nzela ya Molimo, misala mabe oyo bosalaka kati na banzoto na bino, bokozala na bomoi.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.
Pamba te bato oyo batambolisamaka na Molimo ya Nzambe bazali bana na Nzambe.
15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba. Father."
Solo, bozwaki te Molimo oyo akomisaka bino bawumbu mpo ete bozala na kobanga, kasi bozwaki Molimo oyo akomisaka bino bana na Nzambe, mpe ezali na nzela ya Molimo yango nde togangaka: « Tata! »
16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
Molimo Ye moko atatolaka na molimo na biso ete tozali bana na Nzambe.
17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God and fellow heirs with Messiah; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
Mpe soki tozali bana, tozali mpe bakitani ya libula: tozali bakitani ya libula ya Nzambe, mpe bakitani ya libula elongo na Klisto, soki penza tozali komona pasi elongo na Ye mpo ete tozwa mpe nkembo elongo na Ye.
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed to us.
Nakanisi ete pasi ya tango oyo ekokani te na motuya ya nkembo oyo ekomonisama mpo na biso.
19 For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.
Pamba te bikelamu nyonso ezali kozela na posa makasi ete bana na Nzambe bamonisama.
20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
Pamba te bikelamu nyonso ezali na se ya bokonzi ya nguya oyo esukaka na pamba; na mokano na yango moko te, kasi na mokano ya Ye oyo atiaki bikelamu yango na se ya bokonzi yango, na elikya ete
21 that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
bikelamu nyonso mpe ekokangolama na bowumbu ya libebi na yango mpo na kozwa bonsomi ya nkembo oyo bana na Nzambe bakozwa.
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers with labor pains together until now.
Toyebi malamu ete kino sik’oyo, bikelamu nyonso ezali kolela pasi lokola mwasi oyo azali na pasi ya kobota.
23 And not only this, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.
Ezali yango moko kaka te nde ezali kolela; kasi biso ba-oyo mpe tozwaki Molimo lokola mbuma ya liboso tozali mpe komona pasi kati na mitema, wana tozali kozela na posa makasi ete Nzambe akomisa biso bana na Ye penza mpe asikola banzoto na biso.
24 For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
Pamba te tosila kobika, kasi kobika yango ezali nanu elikya. Nzokande soki tozali komona eloko oyo tozali kotiela elikya, wana ezali lisusu elikya te, pamba te nani akoki kotia elikya na eloko oyo azali komona?
25 But if we hope for that which we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
Kasi soki tozali kotia elikya na eloko oyo tozali komona te, solo tokozela yango na molende.
26 And in the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with inexpressible groanings.
Ndenge moko mpe Molimo ayaka kosunga biso kati na bolembu na biso; pamba te toyebi te kosambela na lolenge oyo esengeli, kasi Molimo Ye moko abondelaka mpo na biso na maloba oyo moto akoki koloba te.
27 And he who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit's mind, because he makes intercession for the saints in accordance with God.
Mpe Nzambe oyo akundolaka mozindo ya mitema ayebi makanisi ya Molimo, pamba te Molimo abondelaka mpo na basantu kolanda mokano ya Nzambe.
28 And we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
Mpe toyebi malamu ete kati na makambo nyonso, Nzambe asalaka mpo na bolamu ya bato oyo balingaka Ye, ba-oyo babengama kolanda mabongisi na Ye.
29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
Pamba te bato oyo Nzambe ayeba wuta kala, abongisa mpe bango wuta kala mpo ete bakokana na Mwana na Ye, mpo ete azala Mwana ya liboso kati na bandeko ebele.
30 Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
Mpe ba-oyo abongisa wuta kala, abenga mpe bango; ba-oyo abenga, akomisa bango bato ya sembo; mpe ba-oyo akomisa bato ya sembo, apesa bango mpe nkembo na Ye.
31 What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Boye, toloba lisusu nini? Soki Nzambe azali mpo na biso, nani akotelemela biso?
32 He who did not spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?
Ye oyo aboyaki te kopesa Mwana na Ye se moko, kasi akabaki Ye mpo na biso nyonso, ndenge nini azanga kopesa biso biloko nyonso elongo na Ye na nzela ya ngolu?
33 Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
Nani akofunda bato oyo Nzambe apona? Ezali Nzambe nde akomisaka sembo.
34 Who is he who condemns? It is Messiah who died, and more than that, who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
Nani akokatela bango etumbu? Moko te! Yesu-Klisto akufaki; kutu, asekwaki, azali na ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya Nzambe, mpe azali kobondela mpo na biso.
35 Who will separate us from the love of Messiah? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
Nani akokabola biso na bolingo ya Klisto? Pasi, somo, minyoko, nzala, kozanga bilamba, likama to mopanga?
36 Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."
Kolanda ndenge ekomama: « Ezali mpo na Yo nde balukaka koboma biso mikolo nyonso; bazwaka biso lokola bameme ya koboma. »
37 No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Kasi kati na makambo oyo nyonso, tozali penza balongi na nzela ya Ye oyo alinga biso.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
Pamba te nandimisami ete ezala kufa to bomoi, ba-anjelu to milimo mabe, makambo ya mikolo oyo to makambo oyo ekoya, banguya ya ndenge na ndenge,
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Messiah Jesus our Lord.
banguya ya likolo to ya se ya mabele to eloko mosusu oyo Nzambe akela, eloko moko te ekoki kokabola biso na bolingo ya Nzambe kati na Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso.
