Romana 5
1 Aa kanao vinolily ho vantañe tika ty amy fatokisan-tikañey, le an-kanintsiñe tika aman’ Añahare añamy Talèn-tika Iesoà Norizañey,
Now that we have been made right by God by trusting in him, we have peace with him through our Lord Jesus Christ.
2 le fatokisañe ka ro ahazoan-tika lalañe mb’amy hasoa ijohañan-tikañey, ie mitreñe, misalala ty hahaoniñañe i engen’ Añaharey!
It's through Jesus, trusting in him, that we've gained access to this position of grace where we now stand, looking forward with happiness and confidence to sharing in God's glory.
3 Tsy izay avao, fa rengen-tika o halovilovian-tikañeo, fohiñe te minday fahaliñisañe i haloviloviañey
Not only this—we also remain confident when problems come, because we know that experiencing problems develops spiritual stamina.
4 naho figahiñañe i fahaliñisañey vaho fitamàñe i figahiñañey,
Spiritual stamina in turn develops a mature character, and this mature character results in confident hope.
5 ie tsy salare’ i fitamàñey, amy te nadoandoañe an-tron-tikañe ao ty fikokoan’ Añahare amy Arofo Masiñe natolots’ an-tikañey.
Since we have this hope we're never disappointed, for God's love has been poured into us through the Holy Spirit he's given us.
6 Ie mbe nalejolejo tika, le nivilasy ho a o lo-tserekeo ami’ty sa mete i Norizañey.
When we were completely helpless, at just the right time Christ died for us ungodly people.
7 Tsy siake hamoeñ’ aiñe ty vañoñe, fe he eo ty mahavany hivetrake hisolo t’indaty soa.
Who would die for anybody else, even someone who does what's right? (Though perhaps somebody would be brave enough to die for someone really good.)
8 Fe niventen’ Añahare ty fikokoa’e antika, amy te mbe nanan-kakeo tika te nivilasy i Norizañey.
But God demonstrates his love for us in that Christ died for us while we were still sinners.
9 Aa kanao nivantañe’ i lio’ey tika, antsake te ho hahañ’ amy haviñerañey!
Now that we are made right by his death, we can be absolutely sure we'll be saved by him from the coming judgment.
10 Ie mbe nimpirafelahy tika ro nifampilongoeñe aman’ Añahare amy havilasi’ i Ana’eiy, sandrake, t’ie nijebaña’e ro ho rombaheñe amy havelo’ey!
While we were his enemies, God made us his friends through the death of his Son, and so we can be absolutely sure that he will save us through the life of his Son.
11 Tsy izay avao, fa Iesoà Talè Norizañey henaneo ty andrengean-tika an’ Andrianañahare, i nanjoan-tika fijebañañey.
In addition to this we now celebrate what God has done through our Lord Jesus Christ to reconcile us and make us his friends.
12 Aa le hambañe amy te indaty raike ty nizilihan-kakeo ami’ty voatse toy naho i havilasiy ty amy tahiñey, te kila hifetsahan-kavilasy, amy te fonga nandilatse;
For through one man sin entered the world, and sin led to death. In this way death came to everyone, for everyone sinned.
13 Toe tami’ty voatse toy taolo’ i Hake o fandilarañeo, fe tsy mahaseseke ty tahiñe naho tsy eo ty Hake.
Even before the law was given, sin was in the world, however it wasn't counted as sin because there was no law.
14 Ndra te izay, nameleke faha’ i Dame pak’ amy Mosè o havilasio, ndra amo tsy nandilatse am-panjehara’ i Dameo, ie fanalinjoa’ i hitotsakey.
But death still ruled from Adam until Moses, even over those who didn't sin in the same way as Adam did. Now Adam prefigured the one to come.
15 Fe tsy manahake i tahiñey ty hasoa, fa naho ty hakeo’ i raikey ty nahavilasy i màroy, antsake te nitobàke amy màroy ty fatarihan’ Añahare, naho ty hasoam-palalà’ i raikey, Iesoà Norizañey!
But the gift of Jesus is not like the sin of Adam. Though many people died because of one man's sin, God's grace is so much greater and has been shared with so many through his gracious gift in the person of Jesus Christ.
16 Eka, tsy ampanahafeñe ami’ty toli’ i nandilatsey i falalàñey, amy te nikai-jaka naho ninday fatse i raikey; fe nandimbe hakeo maro i falalàñey vaho ninday havantañañe.
The result of the gift is not like that of the sin. The result of Adam's sin was judgment and condemnation, but the gift sets us right with God, despite our many sins.
17 Aa naho ty tahi’ i raikey ty nifehean-kavilasy añamy raikey, sandrake te hifeleke an-kaveloñe ao o mandrambe i hasoa mitoabotsey naho i ravoravon-kavantañañeio añamy raike atao Iesoà Norizañey.
As a result of one man's sin, death ruled because of him. But God's grace is so much greater and his gift sets us right, for everyone who receives it will rule in life through the person of Jesus Christ!
18 Aa le, hambañe amy te nafà’ ty hakeo raike ze kila ondaty, te nivantañen-ko veloñe ami’ty sata-vañoñe raike ka ze hene’ ondaty.
Just as one sin brought condemnation on everyone, in the same way one right act gave everyone the opportunity to live right.
19 Fa manahake ty nampanaña’ ty fanjehara’ indatiy tahiñe i màroy, ty nañavantaña’ i raikey i màroy amy fivohora’ey.
Just as through one man's disobedience many became sinners, in the same way through one man's obedience many are made right with God.
20 Nivotrak’ eo ty Hake hampivangogo o tahiñeo, aa ndra te nirokoroko o tahiñeo, somandrake te niraorao ty fatarihañe,
When the law was introduced, sin became even more obvious. But while sin became much more obvious, grace became even more obvious!
21 aa le hambañe amy te hakeo ty nifeleke an-kavilasy, te fatarihañe ty hifehe an-kañavantañe mb’an-kaveloñe nainai’e añamy Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey. (aiōnios g166)
Just as sin ruled us and brought us death, now grace rules by making us right with God, bringing us eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
