Abaruumi 8
1 Noolwekyo abo abali mu Kristo Yesu, tebaliiko musango; abo abatagoberera kwegomba okw’omubiri wabula ne bagoberera Omwoyo.
There is now, therefore, no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
2 Kubanga etteeka ery’Omwoyo aleeta obulamu mu Kristo Yesu, lyannunula okuva mu tteeka ly’ekibi n’okufa.
For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has freed me from the law of sin, and of death.
3 Amateeka ga Musa kye gataayinza kukola, olw’okunafuyizibwa omubiri, Katonda yakikola mu Mwana we yennyini bwe yamutuma mu kifaananyi ky’omubiri ogw’ekibi, n’asalira ekibi omusango mu mubiri.
For what the law could not do, because it was weak through the flesh, God has done, who, sending his own son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for a sin-offering, condemned sin in the flesh,
4 Ekyo kyabaawo, eby’obutuukirivu mu mateeka biryoke bituukirire mu ffe bwe tugondera Omwoyo, ffe abatatambulira mu mubiri naye abatambulira mu Mwoyo.
that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
5 Abo abalowooleza mu mubiri balowooza bintu bya mubiri, naye abalowooleza mu Mwoyo balowooza bya Mwoyo.
For those who are according to the flesh, mind the things of the flesh; but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6 Okulowooleza mu by’omubiri kwe kufa, naye okufugibwa Omwoyo bwe bulamu n’emirembe.
For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace.
7 Kubanga okulowooza eby’omubiri kya bulabe eri Katonda. Ebirowoozo eby’omubiri tebiyinza kuwulira mateeka ga Katonda.
Because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can it be.
8 N’abo abafugibwa omubiri tebayinza kusanyusa Katonda.
Those, then, who are in the flesh, can not please God.
9 Naye mmwe temufugibwa mubiri wabula mufugibwa Mwoyo, kubanga Omwoyo wa Katonda abeera mu mmwe. Era omuntu yenna bw’ataba na Mwoyo wa Kristo, oyo si wa Kristo.
But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now, if any one has not the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
10 Era obanga Kristo ali mu mmwe, omubiri gwammwe mufu olw’ekibi, ate ng’omwoyo gwammwe mulamu olw’obutuukirivu.
But if Christ is in you, the body is dead, on account of sin, but the Spirit is life, on account of righteousness.
11 Era obanga Omwoyo w’oyo eyazuukiza Yesu okuva mu bafu abeera mu mmwe, oyo eyazuukiza Kristo mu bafu, alifuula emibiri gyammwe egifa okuba emiramu ku bw’Omwoyo we abeera mu mmwe.
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he that raised the Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwells in you.
12 Noolwekyo abooluganda tulina ebbanja, so si eri omubiri okugondera bye gutulagira.
Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh;
13 Kubanga bwe munaagobereranga omubiri, mugenda kufa. Naye bwe munnatta ebikolwa eby’omubiri, muliba balamu,
for if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if, through the Spirit, you put to death the deeds of the body, you shall live.
14 kubanga abo bonna abakulemberwa Omwoyo wa Katonda be baana ba Katonda.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 Temwaweebwa mwoyo gwa buddu ate mutye, wabula mwaweebwa Omwoyo eyabafuula abaana, era ku bw’oyo tumukoowoola nti, “Aba, Kitaffe.”
For you have not again received the spirit of bondage, that you may fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father.
16 Omwoyo yennyini akakasiza wamu n’omwoyo waffe nga bwe tuli abaana ba Katonda.
The Spirit itself testifies with our spirit, that we are the children of God;
17 Kale nga bwe tuli abaana, tuli basika ba Katonda, era tulisikira wamu ne Kristo, bwe tubonaabonera awamu naye, tulyoke tuweerwe wamu naye ekitiibwa.
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 together.
18 Okubonaabona kwe tubonaabona kaakano kutono nnyo bwe kugeraageranyizibwa n’ekitiibwa ekiritubikulirwa.
For I consider the sufferings of the present time not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall be revealed for us.
19 Ebitonde birindirira n’essuubi lingi ekiseera abaana ba Katonda lwe baliragibwa.
For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the revelation of the sons of God.
20 Kubanga ebitonde tebyafugibwa butaliimu nga byeyagalidde, wabula ku bw’oyo eyabifugisa, mu kusuubira.
For the creature was subject to frailty, (not by its own will, but for his sake who subjected it, )
21 Ebitonde birifuulibwa bya ddembe okuva mu kufugibwa okuvunda ne bigabanira wamu n’abaana ba Katonda ekitiibwa eky’okuba mu ddembe.
in hope, that even the creature itself shall be made free from the bondage of corruption, and introduced into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 Tumanyi ng’ebitonde byonna bisinda era ne birumwa ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala bw’abeera.
For we know that every creature groans, and is in pain together, till now:
23 Naye ate si ekyo kyokka, era naffe abalina ebibala ebibereberye eby’Omwoyo, naffe tusinda munda yaffe nga tulindirira okufuuka abaana, kwe kununulibwa kw’emibiri gyaffe.
and not only they, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
24 Twalokolebwa lwa ssuubi eryo. Naye essuubi erirabibwa si ssuubi; kubanga ani asuubira ky’alabako?
For we are saved by this hope; but hope that is seen is not hope; for, what any one sees, why does he also hope for it?
25 Naye bwe tusuubira kye tutalabako, tukirindirira n’okugumiikiriza.
But if we hope for that which we see not we wait for it with patience.
26 N’Omwoyo bw’atyo atubeera mu bunafu bwaffe. Tetumanyi kusaba nga bwe kitugwanira, naye Omwoyo yennyini atwegayiririra n’okusinda okutayogerekeka.
In like manner, also, the Spirit helps our infirmities; for we know not what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes for us, with groanings unutterable.
27 Oyo akebera emitima, amanyi Omwoyo ky’alowooza, kubanga yeegayiririra abatukuvu ng’okusiima kwa Katonda bwe kuli.
And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, that he intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
28 Era tumanyi nga eri abo abaagala Katonda, era abo abayitibwa ng’okuteesa kwe bwe kuli, ebintu byonna bibatuukako olw’obulungi.
And we know that all things work together for good, to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
29 Kubanga abo be yamanya olubereberye, yabalonda okufaananyizibwa mu kifaananyi ky’Omwana we, ye abeerenga omubereberye mu booluganda abangi.
For those whom he foreknew, he predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the first-born among many brethren:
30 Abo be yalonda, n’okubayita yabayita, n’abo be yayita, yabawa obutuukirivu, n’abo be yawa obutuukirivu yabagulumiza.
and those whom he predestinated he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.
31 Kale tunaagamba ki ku bintu bino? Katonda bw’abeera ku lwaffe, ani asobola okutulwanyisa?
What, then, shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 Oyo ataasaasira Mwana we ye, naye n’amuwaayo ku lwaffe ffenna, talituwa buwi bintu byonna awamu naye?
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how will he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Ani aliroopa abalonde ba Katonda? Katonda y’awa obutuukirivu.
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifies.
34 Ani alibasalira omusango? Kristo Yesu yafa, kyokka okusinga byonna yazuukizibwa, era ali ku mukono ogwa ddyo ogwa Katonda, ng’atwegayiririra.
Who is he that condemns? It is Christ that died: rather, indeed, that has risen, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.
35 Ani alitwawukanya n’okwagala kwa Kristo? Kubonaabona, oba bulumi, oba kuyigganyizibwa, oba njala, oba kuba bwerere, oba kabi, oba kitala?
Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? Shall affliction, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or the sword?
36 Kyawandiikibwa nti: “Ku lulwo tutiisibwatiisibwa n’okuttibwa obudde okuziba, era tubalibwa ng’endiga ez’okusalibwa.”
As it is written: For thy sake, we are killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Naye mu bino byonna tuwangudde n’okukirawo ku bw’oyo eyatwagala.
Yet, in all these things, we are more than conquerors, through him that loved us.
38 Kubanga nkakasiza ddala nga newaakubadde okufa, wadde obulamu, wadde bamalayika, wadde abafuzi, wadde ebiriwo, wadde ebigenda okujja, wadde amaanyi,
For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 wadde obugulumivu, wadde okukka wansi, wadde ekitonde ekirala kyonna, tewali kiriyinza kutwawukanya n’okwagala kwa Katonda okuli mu Kristo Yesu Mukama waffe.
nor hight, nor depth, nor any other creature, will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
