Roma 8

1 Na, kahore e tau te he inaianei ki te hunga i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Messiah Yeshua.

2 Na te ture hoki a te Wairua o te ora i roto i a Karaiti Ihu ahau i atea ai i te ture a te hara, a te mate.

For the law of the Ruach of life in Messiah Yeshua has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

3 Ko te mea kihai i taea e te ture, he ngoikore nona i te kikokiko, tonoa mai ana e te Atua tana Tama, i te ahua o te kikokiko hara, hei whakahere ano mo te hara, a whakataua ana e ia te he ki te hara i roto i te kikokiko:

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 Kia rite ai to te ture tikanga i roto i a tatou, kahore nei e haere i runga i ta te kikokiko, engari i ta te Wairua.

so that the requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Ruach.

5 Ko te hunga hoki i runga i ta te kikokiko, whakaaro ana ratou ki o te kikokiko; ko te hunga ia i runga i ta te Wairua, ki o te Wairua.

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Ruach, the things of the Ruach.

6 Ko to te kikokiko whakaaro hoki he mate, ko to te Wairua ia he ora, he rangimarie:

For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Ruach is life and peace;

7 He tikanga whawhai hoki ki te Atua te whakaaro ki te kikokiko: e kore nei hoki e ngawari ki te ture a te Atua, kahore ano e ahei kia ngawari:

because the mind set on the flesh is hostile towards God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot.

8 A e kore e taea e te hunga i te kikokiko te whakamanawareka ki te Atua.

And those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 Otiia kahore koutou i te kikokiko, engari i te Wairua, ki te mea e noho ana te Wairua o te Atua i roto i a koutou. Ki te kahore ia te Wairua o te Karaiti i tetahi, ehara tenei i a ia.

But you are not in the flesh but in the Ruach, if it is so that the Ruach of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Ruach of Messiah, he does not belong to him.

10 Tena ki te mea kei roto a te Karaiti i a koutou, he tupapaku te tinana i te hara, he ora ia te wairua i te tika.

And if Messiah is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Ruach gives life because of righteousness.

11 Ki te noho ia i roto i a koutou te Wairua o te kaiwhakaara o Ihu i te hunga mate, mana, ma te kaiwhakaara o Karaiti Ihu i roto i te hunga mate, e whakaora ake ano o koutou tinana mate ki tona Wairua e noho na i roto i a koutou.

But if the Ruach of him who raised up Yeshua from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Messiah from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Ruach who dwells in you.

12 Na reira, e oku teina, kahore he tikanga o te kikokiko kei runga i a tatou, kia whai tatou i tana:

So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

13 Ki te noho hoki koutou i runga i ta te kikokiko, ka mate koutou; ki te mea ia ka whakamate koutou i nga mahi a te tinana, he mea na te Wairua, ka ora koutou.

For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Ruach you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

14 Ko te hunga hoki e arahina ana e te Wairua o te Atua, he tama ratou na te Atua.

For as many as are led by the Ruach of God, these are sons of God.

15 He teka hoki he wairua pononga kua riro nei i a koutou, e mataku ai ano koutou; engari kua riro i a koutou te Wairua e mea ana i a koutou hei tamariki ake, e karanga ai koutou, E Apa, e Pa.

For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Ruach of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba. Father."

16 Ko taua Wairua ra ano hei whakaae ake ki o tatou wairua, he tamariki tatou na te Atua:

The Ruach himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;

17 Ki te mea hoki he tamariki, kati mo tatou te kainga; mo tatou te kainga o te Atua, mo tatou tahi ko te Karaiti; kia mamae rawa ake ai tatou tahi me ia, Ka whakakororiatia ngatahitia tatou me ia.

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 Ki toku whakaaro iho hoki, he kore noa iho nga mamae o tenei wa, ki te whakaritea ki te kororia e whakakitea mai ki a tatou a mua.

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 Ko te tumanako hoki o te mea i hanga e tatari ana ki te whakakitenga mai o nga tama a te Atua.

For the creation waits with eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.

20 Kua meinga hoki te tekateka noa hei rangatira mo te mea i hanga, ehara i te mea na tenei ake i whakaae, engari na ta te kaiwhakarite i pai ai, i runga i te tumanako,

For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope

21 Tera taua mea i hanga e whakaateatia mai i te whakataurekarekatanga a te pirau, whakarangatiratia ake ki roto ki te kororia o nga tamariki a te Atua.

that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

22 E mohio ana hoki tatou, kei te ngunguru tahi, kei te mamae tahi, nga mea hanga katoa taea noatia tenei ra.

For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers with labor pains together until now.

23 Ehara i te mea ko tera anake, engari ko tatou ano hoki kua whiwhi nei ki te hua matamua, ara ki te Wairua, ina, e aue ana hoki tatou i roto i a tatou, e tatari ana ki te whakatamarikitanga, ara ki te whakaoranga o o tatou tinana.

And not only this, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Ruach, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body.

24 Na te tumanako hoki tatou i ora ai: tena ka kitea te mea e tumanakohia atu ana, kore ake te tumanako: ko wai oti e tumanako ki te mea e kitea nei e ia?

For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees?

25 Ki te tumanako atu ia tatou ki te mea kahore nei e kitea, katahi ka ata taria mariretia atu e tatou.

But if we hope for that which we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

26 Waihoki ko te wairua hei hoa mo tatou e ngoikore nei: kahore hoki tatou e matau me pehea e tika ai ta tatou inoi: otiia ko te Wairua tonu ano te inoi ana mo tatou ki ona aue e kore nei e taea te whakahua.

And in the same way, the Ruach also helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we ought. But the Ruach himself makes intercession for us with inexpressible groanings.

27 A, ko te kaititiro i nga ngakau, e mohio ana ki te hinengaro o te Wairua, ko tera hoki e inoi ana mo te hunga tapu i runga i ta te Atua i pai ai.

And he who searches the hearts knows what is on the Ruach's mind, because he makes intercession for the kadoshim in accordance with God.

28 Na e matau ana tatou, kei te mahi tahi nga mea katoa i te pai mo te hunga e aroha ana ki te Atua, ara mo te hunga i karangatia i runga i tana i whakatakoto ai.

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 Ko ana hoki i mohio ai i mua, E whakaritea ano e ia i mua kia rite ki te ahua o tana Tama, kia ai ia hei maunga i roto i nga teina tokomaha.

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 A, ko ana i whakarite ai i mua, ko ena ano i karangatia e ia: a, ko ana i karanga ai, ko ena ano i whakatikaia e ia: a, ko ana i whakatika ai, ko ena ano i whakakororiatia e ia.

Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.

31 Na, kia pehea ta tatou korero ki enei mea? Ki te mea ko te Atua hei hoa mo tatou, ko wai hei whawhai ki a tatou?

What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

32 Ko ia kihai nei i kaiponu i tana ake Tama, heoi tukua mai ana e ia mo tatou katoa, e kore ianei ia e tapiri noa mai ki a ia i nga mea katoa mo tatou?

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 Ko wai hei whakapa he ki a te Atua i whiriwhiri ai? Ko te Atua ra hei whakatika;

Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies.

34 Ko wai ianei hei whakatau he? Ko Karaiti Ihu ra, i mate nei, ae rawa hoki, ko ia ra kua whakaarahia ake nei i te mate, a kei te ringa matau o te Atua, ko ia hoki kei te inoi mo tatou.

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 Ma wai tatou e momotu ke i te aroha o te Karaiti? Ma te whakapawera ranei, ma te mamae, ma te whakatoi, ma e matekai, ma te kakahukore, ma te mate ka tata, ma te hoari ranei?

Who shall separate us from the love of Messiah? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?

36 Ko te mea hoki ia i tuhituhia, Na te whakaaro ki a koe matou i whakamatea ai i te ra roa nei; kiia ana matou hei hipi e patua ana.

Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."

37 Engari i enei mea katoa hira ake te wikitoria i a tatou, he mea nana i aroha nei ki a tatou.

No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

38 U tonu hoki toku whakaaro, e kore te mate, te ora ranei, e kore nga anahera, nga rangatiratanga ranei, e kore nga mea onaianei, e kore nga mea e puta mai a mua, e kore nga mana,

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

39 E kore te tiketike, e kore te hohonu, e kore tetahi atu mea hanga, e kaha ki te momotu i a tatou i te aroha o te Atua, i tera i roto nei i a Karaiti Ihu, i to tatou Ariki.

nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Messiah Yeshua our Lord.
