< Barome 5 >

1 Yango wana, lokola tokomi bato ya sembo na nzela ya kondima, tozali na kimia elongo na Nzambe na nzela ya Nkolo na biso, Yesu-Klisto
Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Yeshua Meshikha;
2 oyo na nzela na Ye, tozwi ndingisa, na nzela ya kondima, ya kozwa ngolu oyo kati na yango tozali kowumela mpe tozali komikumisa kati na elikya ete tokobika nkembo ya Nzambe.
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.
3 Tozali mpe komikumisa kati na pasi, pamba te toyebi ete pasi ebotaka koyika mpiko,
Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance;
4 koyika mpiko ememaka elonga kati na komekama, mpe elonga kati na komekama ebotaka elikya.
and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope:
5 Nzokande, elikya ekosaka te, pamba te Nzambe asopaki bolingo na Ye kati na mitema na biso na nzela ya Molimo Mosantu oyo Ye Nzambe apesaki biso.
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.
6 Solo, wana tozalaki nanu bato na bolembu, Klisto akufaki mpo na bato ya masumu, na tango oyo Nzambe abongisaki.
For while we were yet weak, at the right time Meshikha died for the ungodly.
7 Ezali pasi komona moto kondima kokufa mpo na moto ya sembo; tango mosusu, moto akoki kondima kokufa mpo na moto ya malamu.
For rarely does one die for the righteous. Yet perhaps for a good person someone might dare to die.
8 Kasi tala ndenge nini Nzambe alakisi biso bolingo na Ye: wana tozalaki nanu bato ya masumu, Klisto akufelaki biso.
But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Meshikha died for us.
9 Lokola tokomi sik’oyo bato ya sembo na nzela ya makila na Ye, Klisto akobikisa biso mpe na kanda ya Nzambe.
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath through him.
10 Solo, wana tozalaki nanu banguna ya Nzambe, Ye moko Nzambe azongisaki boyokani na biso elongo na Ye na nzela ya kufa ya Mwana na Ye. Boye lokola azongisi boyokani yango, akobikisa biso mpe na nzela ya bomoi ya mwana na Ye.
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.
11 Yango kaka te! Tozali mpe komikumisa kati na Nzambe na nzela ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso, oyo azongisi boyokani na biso elongo na Nzambe.
Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Yeshua Meshikha, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
12 Yango wana, ndenge lisumu ekotaki na mokili na nzela ya moto moko, mpe kufa na nzela ya lisumu, ndenge wana mpe kufa ekangaki bato nyonso na nzela ya lisumu, pamba te bato nyonso basalaki masumu.
Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; and so death passed to all people, because all sinned.
13 Solo, liboso ete Nzambe apesa Mobeko, lisumu ezalaki kati na mokili, kasi lisumu ekoki kotangama te soki Mobeko ezali te.
For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law.
14 Nzokande, wuta na tango ya Adamu kino na tango ya Moyize, kufa ezalaki na bokonzi ata epai ya bato oyo basalaki masumu te, na lolenge ya Adamu oyo abukaki mobeko mpe azali elilingi ya moto oyo asengelaki koya.
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.
15 Kasi ezali na bokeseni monene kati na likabo ya ofele ya Nzambe mpe lisumu! Pamba te soki lisumu ya moto moko ememelaki bato ebele kufa, ngolu ya Nzambe mpe likabo ya ofele oyo eyaki na nzela ya ngolu ya moto moko, Yesu-Klisto, efulukaki meke mpo na bato ebele.
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.
16 Likabo ya Nzambe ezali na motuya makasi koleka mabe ya lisumu ya moto moko: likolo ya lisumu moko, kosambisama eyei mpe ememi etumbu; kasi likolo ya masumu ebele, likabo ya ngolu eyei mpe elongoli etumbu.
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.
17 Pamba te soki na nzela ya mabe ya moto moko, kufa ezwaki bokonzi likolo ya moto wana se moko, ndenge nini bato oyo bazwaka bomengo ya ngolu ya Nzambe mpe likabo ya bosembo bazala na bokonzi te kati na bomoi na nzela ya Yesu-Klisto Ye moko!
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.
18 Na mokuse, ndenge mabe ya moto moko ememelaki bato nyonso etumbu, ndenge wana mpe mosala ya moto moko mpo na kokokisa bosembo ememeli bato nyonso bonsomi mpe bomoi.
So then as through one trespass, all people were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all people were justified to life.
19 Pamba te ndenge kozanga botosi ya moto moko ekomisaki bato ebele bato ya masumu, ndenge wana mpe botosi ya moto moko ekomisi bato ebele bato ya sembo.
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.
20 Mobeko eyaki mpo ete lisumu ebotana. Kasi epai lisumu ebotanaki, ngolu efulukaki koleka
The law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly;
21 mpo ete, ndenge lisumu elakisaki bokonzi na yango na nzela ya kufa, ngolu mpe elakisa bokonzi na yango na nzela ya bosembo mpo na komema na bomoi ya seko na nzela ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo na biso. (aiōnios g166)
that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to everlasting life through Yeshua Meshikha our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
