Romans 8
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
Konsa nanpwen okenn kondanasyon pou sila ki nan Kris Jésus yo, ki pa mache selon lachè a, men selon Lespri a.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
Paske lalwa Lespri lavi a nan Jésus Kri te libere nou de Lalwa peche ak lanmò a.
3 For what the law couldn’t 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,
Paske sa ke Lalwa a pa t kab fè akoz feblès li anvè lachè a, Bondye te fè l lè Li te voye pwòp Fis li menm nan imaj a chè peche a, kòm yon ofrann pou peche. Konsa, Li te kondane peche nan lachè,
4 that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
pou tout egzijans Lalwa a ta kapab akonpli nan nou menm, ki pa mache ankò selon lachè, men selon Lespri a.
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.
Paske sila ki viv selon lachè yo konsantre panse yo nan tout bagay ki konsène lachè a, men sila ki viv selon Lespri a, konsantre panse yo sou tout bagay Lespri yo.
6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;
Paske panse ki konsantre sou lachè a se lanmò, men panse ki konsantre sou Lespri a se lavi ak lapè.
7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God, for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.
Konsa, panse ki konsantre sou lachè se lènmi a Bondye, paske li pa soumèt tèt li a Lalwa Bondye. Paske li pa posib pou lachè a fè sa.
8 Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.
Konsa, sila ki nan lachè yo pa kapab fè Bondye plezi.
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 any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
Men nou pa nan lachè a, men nan Lespri a, si vrèman Lespri Bondye a rete nan nou. Men si yon moun pa gen Lespri Kris la, li pa moun pa L.
10 If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
Si Kris nan nou, malgre kò a mouri akoz peche, lespri a ap viv akoz ladwati Bondye.
11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Men si Lespri de Li menm ki te resisite Jésus nan lanmò a rete nan nou, Li menm ki te fè Jésus Kri leve soti nan lanmò a ap bay lavi a kò mòtèl nou an pa Lespri Li ki rete andedan nou an.
12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Konsa, frè m yo, nou pa anba obligasyon lachè a, pou viv selon lachè.
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.
Paske si nou ap viv selon lachè, nou ap mouri, men si se selon Lespri a, n ap mete tout zèv lachè yo a lanmò, e n ap viv.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.
Paske, tout moun ki ap dirije pa Lespri Sen Bondye a, se fis Li yo ye.
15 For you didn’t receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”
Paske nou pa t resevwa yon Lespri esklavaj, pou fè nou retounen viv nan laperèz, men nou te resevwa yon Lespri adopsyon kon fis. Pa lespri sila nou rele “Abba! Papa a.
16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
Lespri a Li menm temwaye a lespri pa nou ke nou se pitit Bondye.
17 and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
Si se pitit li nou ye, n ap eritye tou. N ap eritye de Bondye e eritye ansanm avèk Kris, si vrèman nou soufri avè l pou nou kapab vin gen glwa ansanm avè l.
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed towards us.
Paske, mwen konsidere soufrans lan nan tan sa a pa kapab konpare menm avèk laglwa ki va revele a nou menm nan.
19 For the creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.
Paske tout kreyasyon an ap tann avèk gwo lanvi revelasyon a fis Bondye yo.
20 For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
Paske kreyasyon an te a sibi anba kòve, pa selon pwòp volonte pa li, men akoz Bondye ki te fè l soumèt, nan esperans lan;
21 that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
ke kreyasyon an li menm osi va libere soti nan esklavaj a koripsyon, pou l antre nan libète laglwa a fis Bondye yo.
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.
Paske nou konnen ke jis nan lè sa a tout kreyasyon ap leve vwa li nan gwo plent tankou fanm k ap fè pitit.
23 Not only so, 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.
Epi se pa sèlman sa, men nou menm osi ki gen premye fwi Lespri yo, menm nou menm, nou plenyen menm jan an anndan nou, pandan n ap tann adopsyon nou kòm fis, ak redanmsyon a kò mòtèl nou an.
24 For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
Paske nou te sove nan espwa, men espwa a yon bagay nou kapab wè se pa espwa. Poukisa yon moun ta espere yon bagay ke li wè deja?
25 But if we hope for that which we don’t see, we wait for it with patience.
Men si nou espere sa ke nou pa wè, nou ap tann li avèk gwo lanvi ak pèseverans.
26 In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered.
Menm jan an, Lespri a ede nou tou nan feblès nou; paske nou pa konnen kòman pou nou priye jan nou ta dwe priye a. Men Lespri a Li menm entèsede pou nou avèk soupi ki pa kapab eksprime.
27 He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.
Men Li menm ki sonde kè yo konnen panse a Lespri a, paske Li entèsede pou tout sen yo selon volonte Bondye a.
28 We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.
Konsa nou konnen ke Bondye fè tout bagay mache ansanm pou byen a sila ki renmen Bondye yo, pou sila ke Li te rele selon volonte Li yo.
29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn amongst many brothers.
Paske sila ke Li te konnen oparavan yo, Li te chwazi yo depi avan pou vin konfòm a limaj a Fis Li a, pou Li ta kapab premye ne pami anpil frè.
30 Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
Epi sila ke Li te chwazi oparavan yo, Li te anplis rele yo, e sila Li te rele yo, Li te jistifye yo, e sila Li te jistifye yo, anplis, Li te glorifye yo.
31 What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Konsa, kisa nou kapab di de bagay sa yo? Si Bondye pou nou, kilès ki kab kont nou?
32 He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?
Li menm ki pa t epagne pwòp Fis Li, men te livre Li pou nou tout, kijan Li ta refize bay nou tout bagay tou?
33 Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
Kilès k ap pote yon akizasyon kont sila ke Bondye chwazi yo? Se Bondye menm ki fè moun jis.
34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
Kilès ki k ap kondane? Se Jésus Kri ki te mouri pou nou an, wi, pito di ki te leve a, ki rete sou men dwat Bondye, e ki ap entèsede pou nou tou.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Kilès k ap separe nou de lanmou Kris la? Èske se tribilasyon, soufrans pèsekisyon, grangou, toutouni, gwo danje, oubyen nepe?
36 Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”
Jan sa ekri a: “Pou kòz pa w, yo mete nou a lanmò tout lajounen. Nou te konsidere kòm mouton ki prè pou kòche.”
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Men, nan tout bagay, nou plis ke venkè atravè Sila a ki renmen nou an.
38 For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
Paske mwen konvenk ke ni lanmò, ni lavi, ni zanj yo, ni wayòm yo, ni bagay k ap pase koulye a, ni bagay k ap vini pi devan, ni pouvwa yo
39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
ni wotè, ni pwofondè, ni lòt bagay ki kreye, pa kapab separe nou de lanmou Bondye, ki nan Kris Jésus, Senyè nou an.
