< Aroma 5 >
1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kuona atĩ nĩtũtuĩtwo andũ athingu nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia-rĩ, tũrĩ na thayũ na Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ,
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 we ũrĩa ũtũmĩte tũgĩe na mweke wa gũkinya wega-inĩ wa Ngai, harĩa tũrũngiĩ rĩu nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia. Na ithuĩ nĩtũkenaga nĩ ũndũ wa kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa tũrĩ nakĩo gĩa gũgaakinyĩra riiri wa Ngai.
through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
3 Na to ũguo wiki, no rĩrĩa tũrĩ mathĩĩna-inĩ nĩtũkenaga tondũ nĩtũũĩ atĩ gũthĩĩnĩka gũtũmaga tũũmĩrĩrie;
Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
4 nakuo kũũmĩrĩria gũtũmaga tũgĩe na gwĩkindĩra; nakuo gwĩkindĩra gũtũmaga tũgĩe na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro.
perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5 Nakĩo kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩu gĩtingĩtũũraga ngoro, tondũ Ngai nĩaitĩrĩirie wendani wake ngoro-inĩ ciitũ na ũndũ wa Roho Mũtheru, ũrĩa we aatũheire.
And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.
6 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, o ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire rĩakinya, o hĩndĩ ĩrĩa tũtaarĩ na hinya, Kristũ nĩakuire nĩ ũndũ wa andũ arĩa matatĩĩaga Ngai.
For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
7 Nĩ hinya mũno mũndũ akue nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ mũthingu, no hihi kwahoteka kuoneka mũndũ ũngĩkua nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ mwega.
Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.
8 No Ngai nĩonanĩtie wendo wake kũrĩ ithuĩ na njĩra ĩno: Atĩ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa twatũire tũrĩ ehia-rĩ, Kristũ nĩatũkuĩrĩire.
But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Kuona atĩ rĩu nĩtũtuĩtwo athingu na ũndũ wa thakame yake-rĩ, githĩ tũtigakĩhonokio makĩria kuuma harĩ mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai nĩ ũndũ wake!
Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him!
10 Tondũ-rĩ, angĩkorwo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa twarĩ thũ cia Ngai nĩtwaiguithanirio nake na ũndũ wa gĩkuũ kĩa Mũriũ, na tondũ rĩu tũrĩ aiguithanie na Ngai-rĩ, nĩtũrĩkĩragĩrĩria kũhonokio nĩ ũndũ Kristũ arĩ muoyo.
For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life!
11 Na to ũguo wiki, no o na nĩtũkenagĩra Ngai thĩinĩ wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ, o ũcio ũtũmĩte tũiguithanio na Ngai.
Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, o ta ũrĩa kwĩhia kwa mũndũ ũmwe gwatũmire mehia matoonye gũkũ thĩ, nakĩo gĩkuũ gĩgĩtoonya nĩ ũndũ wa mehia, nao andũ othe magĩtuĩka a gũkuaga tondũ nĩmehirie,
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned.
13 nĩgũkorwo o na watho ũtanaheanwo, mehia maarĩ kuo gũkũ thĩ. No gũtarĩ watho mũndũ ndangĩtuuo mwĩhia.
For sin was in the world before the law was given; but sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14 O na kũrĩ ũguo-rĩ, kuuma hĩndĩ ya Adamu o nginya hĩndĩ ya Musa, gĩkuũ nĩkĩo gĩatũire gĩthamakagĩra andũ, o na arĩa matehĩtie na ũndũ wa kwagarara watho ta ũrĩa Adamu eekĩte, arĩ we mũhano wa Ũrĩa warĩ wa gũũka thuutha.
Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who did not sin in the way that Adam transgressed. He is a pattern of the One to come.
15 No kĩheo kĩu gĩtihaanaine na ihĩtia rĩa kwagarara watho. Tondũ angĩkorwo andũ aingĩ nĩmakuire nĩ ũndũ wa ihĩtia rĩa mũndũ ũmwe-rĩ, wega wa Ngai o na kĩheo kĩrĩa kĩarehirwo nĩ wega wa mũndũ ũcio ũmwe, na nĩwe Jesũ Kristũ-rĩ, nĩcio ciiyũrĩrĩire andũ aingĩ mũno makĩria!
But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!
16 O na ningĩ, kĩheo kĩu kĩa Ngai gĩtiringaine na maciaro ma mehia ma mũndũ ũcio ũmwe: Tondũ gũtuĩrwo kwa rĩĩhia rĩu rĩmwe nĩkuo gwatũmire andũ matuĩrwo ciira, no kĩheo kĩu kĩaheanirwo nĩ Ngai o ũguo tũhũ kĩarutirwo nĩ ũndũ wa mehia maingĩ, nakĩo gĩgĩtũma matuuo athingu.
Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification.
17 Tondũ-rĩ, angĩkorwo kwĩhia kwa mũndũ ũmwe gwatũmire gĩkuũ gĩthamake nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũcio ũmwe-rĩ, githĩ arĩa maamũkagĩra wega mũingĩ wa Ngai na kĩheo kĩu kĩa ũthingu matigũtũũra mathamakaga makĩria marĩ muoyo-inĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ ũmwe, o we Jesũ Kristũ!
For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive an abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o ta ũrĩa kwĩhia riita o rĩmwe gwatũmire andũ othe matuĩrwo ciira-rĩ, ũguo noguo gĩĩko kĩmwe kĩa ũthingu gĩatũmire andũ othe matuuo athingu nĩguo magĩe na muoyo.
So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all men.
19 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa ũremi wa mũndũ ũmwe watũmire andũ aingĩ matuuo ehia-rĩ, ũguo noguo gwathĩka kwa mũndũ ũcio ũmwe gũgũtũma andũ aingĩ matuuo athingu.
For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20 Ũhoro wa watho wongereirwo nĩguo mehia mongerereke. No harĩa mehia mongererekire-rĩ, naguo wega wa Ngai ũkĩongerereka makĩria,
The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21 nĩgeetha o ta ũrĩa mehia maathamakire thĩinĩ wa gĩkuũ-rĩ, o naguo wega wa Ngai ũthamakage nĩ ũndũ wa ũthingu, nĩguo ũtũkinyie muoyo-inĩ wa tene na tene nĩ ũndũ wa Jesũ Kristũ Mwathani witũ. (aiōnios )
so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
