< Romans 8 >
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fakamalaʻia kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ki he kakano, ka ki he Laumālie.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
He ko e fono ʻoe Laumālie ʻoe moʻui ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, kuo ne fakatauʻatāina au mei he fono ʻoe angahala mo e mate.
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;
He ko ia naʻe ʻikai mafai ʻe he fono, ko e meʻa ʻi hono vaivai ʻi he kakano, kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi heʻene fekau hono ʻAlo ʻoʻona ʻi he tatau ʻoe kakano angahala, pea ko e feilaulau ki he angahala, pea ne fakavaivai ʻae angahala ʻi he kakano:
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.
Koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ki he māʻoniʻoni ʻoe fono ʻekitautolu, ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ki he kakano, ka ki he Laumālie.
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.
He ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻoe kakano, ʻoku nau tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoe kakano; ka ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻoe Laumālie, ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoe Laumālie.
6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace;
He ko e loto fakakakano, ko e mate ia; ka ko e loto fakalaumālie, ko e moʻui ia mo e melino.
7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile towards God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot.
Koeʻuhi ko e loto fakakakano, ko e taufehiʻa ia ki he ʻOtua: he ʻoku ʻikai ke moʻulaloa ia ki he fono ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito faʻa fai ke pehē.
8 And those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Ko ia ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he kakano, ʻoku ʻikai te nau faʻa fai ke fiemālie ʻae ʻOtua.
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 Christ, he does not belong to him.
Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he kakano ʻakimoutolu, ka ʻi he Laumālie, ʻo kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua. Pea ko eni, kapau ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻe ha tangata ʻae Laumālie ʻo Kalaisi, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ia.
10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
Pea kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe Kalaisi, pea kuo mate moʻoni ʻae sino, ko e meʻa ʻi he angahala; kae moʻui ʻae laumālie, ko e meʻa ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.
11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Pea kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie ʻo ia naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa Sisu mei he pekia, pea ko ia naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa Kalaisi mei he pekia, te ne fakaake foki mo homou sino matengofua ʻaki hono Laumālie ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu.
12 So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Ko ia, ʻe kāinga, ko e kau fai totongi ʻakitautolu, kae ʻikai ki he kakano, ke tau moʻui ki he kakano.
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.
He kapau te mou moʻui ki he kakano, te mou mate: ka ʻoka mou ka tāmateʻi ʻae ngaahi anga ʻoe kakano ʻaki ʻae Laumālie, te mou moʻui.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.
He ko kinautolu ʻoku takiekina ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, ko e ngaahi foha ʻakinautolu ʻoe ʻOtua.
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."
He ʻoku ʻikai ke maʻu ʻekimoutolu ʻae laumālie ʻoe pōpula, ke mou toe manavahē; ka kuo mou maʻu ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ohi, ʻaia ʻoku tau tangi ai, “ʻApā, Tamai.”
16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
Pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni ʻe he Laumālie pē ko ia mo hotau laumālie, ko e fānau ʻae ʻOtua ʻakitautolu:
17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
Pea kapau ko e fānau, pea tā ko e kau hoko; ko e kau hoko ki he ʻOtua, pea ko e kau hoko fakataha mo Kalaisi; ʻo kapau te tau mamahi mo ia, koeʻuhi ke tau maʻu ʻae hakeakiʻi fakataha mo ia.
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.
He ʻoku ou pehē, ʻoku ʻikai ngali ke fakatatau ʻae ngaahi mamahi ʻoe moʻui ni ki he nāunau ʻaia ʻe fakahā kiate kitautolu.
19 For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.
He ko e holi lahi ʻoe māmani, ʻoku tatali ia ki he fakahā ʻae fānau ʻae ʻOtua.
20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
He naʻe fakamoʻulaloa ʻa māmani ki he vaʻinga, (kae ʻikai loto ia ki ai, ka ko e meʻa ʻiate ia kuo ne fakamoʻulaloa ia, ) ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei:
21 that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
He koeʻuhi ʻe fakahaofi ʻa māmani mei he haʻi ʻoe ʻauʻauha ki he tauʻatāina monūʻia ʻoe fānau ʻae ʻOtua.
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers with labor pains together until now.
He ʻoku tau ʻilo, ʻoku toʻetoʻe mo feinga ʻi he langā fakataha ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻo aʻu ki heni.
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.
Pea ʻoku ʻikai ko ia pē, ka ko kitautolu foki, ʻakitautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻae ʻuluaki fua ʻoe Laumālie, ʻio, ʻoku tau toʻetoʻe ʻi loto ʻiate kitautolu, mo tatali ki he ohi, ʻa ia, ko e huhuʻi ʻo hotau sino.
24 For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
He ʻoku fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻamanaki lelei: ka ko e ʻamanaki ʻoku maʻu, ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻamanaki ia, he ko ia ʻoku maʻu ʻe ha tangata, ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻa ʻene kei ʻamanaki ki ai?
25 But if we hope for that which we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
Pea kapau ʻoku tau ʻamanaki lelei ki he meʻa ʻoku heʻeki ai te tau maʻu, ʻoku tau tatali faʻa kātaki pe ki ai.
26 And in the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we do not know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with inexpressible groanings.
Pea ko e Laumālie foki, ʻoku ne tokoniʻi ʻetau ngaahi vaivai: he ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku totonu ke tau lotua; ka ʻoku hūfekina ʻakitautolu ʻe he Laumālie pe ko ia ʻi he ngaahi toʻe ʻoku taʻefaʻaleaʻaki.
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.
Ka ko ia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae loto, ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi mo e finangalo ʻoe Laumālie, he ʻoku ne hūfekina ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni ʻo taau mo e ʻOtua.
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.
Pea ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻoku fengāueʻaki fakataha ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ke lelei ai ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ʻakinautolu kuo ui ʻo tatau mo ʻene tuʻutuʻuni.
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.
He ko kinautolu naʻa ne tomuʻa ʻilo, naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni foki ki he tatau ʻo hono ʻAlo, koeʻuhi ke hoko ia ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he kāinga tokolahi:
30 Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
Pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni, naʻa ne ui ʻakinautolu foki: pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne ui, naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakinautolu foki: pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi, naʻa ne hakeakiʻi ʻakinautolu.
31 What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Pea ko e hā te tau leaʻaki ki he ngaahi meʻa ni? Ka kuo kau ʻae ʻOtua maʻatautolu, pea ko hai ʻe angatuʻu kiate kitautolu?
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?
Ko ia ia naʻe ʻikai te ne mamae ki hono ʻAlo ʻoʻona, ka ne tukuange ia koeʻuhi ko kitautolu kotoa pē, pea fēfē, ʻe ʻikai te ne foaki fiemālie foki mo ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kiate kitautolu?
33 Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
Ko hai te ne talatalaakiʻi ʻae kakai kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua? Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku ne fakatonuhiaʻi.
34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and more than that, who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
Ko hai ia ʻoku ne fakahalaia? Ko Kalaisi ia naʻe pekia, ʻio, pea kuo toetuʻu hake, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ne fai ʻae hūfekina foki maʻatautolu.
35 Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
Ko hai te ne fakamāvae ʻakitautolu mei he ʻofa ʻa Kalaisi? ʻAe mahaki, pe ko e mamahi, pe ko e fakatanga, pe ko e honge, pe ko e telefua, pe ko e tuʻutāmaki, pe ko e heletā?
36 Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."
ʻO hangē ko ia kuo tohi, “Koeʻuhi ko koe ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē; pea lau ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ki he tāmateʻi.”
37 No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Ka ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ʻoku tau ikuna pea mālohi lahi ʻiate ia naʻe ʻofa kiate kitautolu.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
He ʻoku ou ʻilo pau, ʻe ʻikai ʻi he he kau ʻāngelo, pe ʻi he kau pule, pe ʻi he ngaahi mālohi, pe ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻi heni, pe ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko,
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Pe ʻi he māʻolunga, pe ʻi he māʻulalo, pe ʻi ha meʻa kehe ʻe taha kuo ngaohi, ʻe ʻikai mafai ia ke fakamāvae ʻakitautolu mei he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu ko hotau ʻEiki.
