Abaruumi 8
1 Noolwekyo abo abali mu Kristo Yesu, tebaliiko musango; abo abatagoberera kwegomba okw’omubiri wabula ne bagoberera Omwoyo.
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Messiah 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 Messiah Jesus has set you free 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, 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;
4 Ekyo kyabaawo, eby’obutuukirivu mu mateeka biryoke bituukirire mu ffe bwe tugondera Omwoyo, ffe abatatambulira mu mubiri naye abatambulira mu Mwoyo.
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.
5 Abo abalowooleza mu mubiri balowooza bintu bya mubiri, naye abalowooleza mu Mwoyo balowooza bya Mwoyo.
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.
6 Okulowooleza mu by’omubiri kwe kufa, naye okufugibwa Omwoyo bwe bulamu n’emirembe.
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on 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 set on the flesh is hostile towards God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot.
8 N’abo abafugibwa omubiri tebayinza kusanyusa Katonda.
And those who are in the flesh cannot 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 it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Messiah, he does not belong to him.
10 Era obanga Kristo ali mu mmwe, omubiri gwammwe mufu olw’ekibi, ate ng’omwoyo gwammwe mulamu olw’obutuukirivu.
And if Messiah is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit gives life because 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.
But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Messiah from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
12 Noolwekyo abooluganda tulina ebbanja, so si eri omubiri okugondera bye gutulagira.
So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 Kubanga bwe munaagobereranga omubiri, mugenda kufa. Naye bwe munnatta ebikolwa eby’omubiri, muliba balamu,
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.
14 kubanga abo bonna abakulemberwa Omwoyo wa Katonda be baana ba Katonda.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are 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 did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba. Father."
16 Omwoyo yennyini akakasiza wamu n’omwoyo waffe nga bwe tuli abaana ba Katonda.
The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are 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 fellow heirs with Messiah; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
18 Okubonaabona kwe tubonaabona kaakano kutono nnyo bwe kugeraageranyizibwa n’ekitiibwa ekiritubikulirwa.
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.
19 Ebitonde birindirira n’essuubi lingi ekiseera abaana ba Katonda lwe baliragibwa.
For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.
20 Kubanga ebitonde tebyafugibwa butaliimu nga byeyagalidde, wabula ku bw’oyo eyabifugisa, mu kusuubira.
For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope
21 Ebitonde birifuulibwa bya ddembe okuva mu kufugibwa okuvunda ne bigabanira wamu n’abaana ba Katonda ekitiibwa eky’okuba mu ddembe.
that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
22 Tumanyi ng’ebitonde byonna bisinda era ne birumwa ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala bw’abeera.
For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers with labor pains together until 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 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.
24 Twalokolebwa lwa ssuubi eryo. Naye essuubi erirabibwa si ssuubi; kubanga ani asuubira ky’alabako?
For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?
25 Naye bwe tusuubira kye tutalabako, tukirindirira n’okugumiikiriza.
But if we hope for that which we do not see, 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.
And in the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with inexpressible groanings.
27 Oyo akebera emitima, amanyi Omwoyo ky’alowooza, kubanga yeegayiririra abatukuvu ng’okusiima kwa Katonda bwe kuli.
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.
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 for 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 whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
30 Abo be yalonda, n’okubayita yabayita, n’abo be yayita, yabawa obutuukirivu, n’abo be yawa obutuukirivu yabagulumiza.
Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
31 Kale tunaagamba ki ku bintu bino? Katonda bw’abeera ku lwaffe, ani asobola okutulwanyisa?
What then are we to say about these things? If God is 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 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?
33 Ani aliroopa abalonde ba Katonda? Katonda y’awa obutuukirivu.
Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who 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 who condemns? It is Messiah who died, and more than that, who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
35 Ani alitwawukanya n’okwagala kwa Kristo? Kubonaabona, oba bulumi, oba kuyigganyizibwa, oba njala, oba kuba bwerere, oba kabi, oba kitala?
Who will separate us from the love of Messiah? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
36 Kyawandiikibwa nti: “Ku lulwo tutiisibwatiisibwa n’okuttibwa obudde okuziba, era tubalibwa ng’endiga ez’okusalibwa.”
Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."
37 Naye mu bino byonna tuwangudde n’okukirawo ku bw’oyo eyatwagala.
No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who 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 rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
39 wadde obugulumivu, wadde okukka wansi, wadde ekitonde ekirala kyonna, tewali kiriyinza kutwawukanya n’okwagala kwa Katonda okuli mu Kristo Yesu Mukama waffe.
nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Messiah Jesus our Lord.
