Mga Roma 5
1 Yamang napawalang-sala tayo sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya, mayroon tayong kapayapaan sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo.
Because we trusted [in Christ], the record of our sins has been erased {[God] has erased the record of our sins}. So we [now] have a peaceful relationship with God because of our trust in what our Lord Jesus Christ [has done for us].
2 Sa pamamagitan niya nagkaroon din tayo ng daan sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya sa biyayang ito na kung saan tayo ay tumatayo. Nagagalak tayo sa pananalig na ibinibigay sa atin ng Diyos para sa hinaharap, ang pananalig na makikibahagi tayo sa kaluwalhatian ng Diyos.
Because of [what] Christ [has done], God has also enabled us to begin experiencing his continually acting toward us in ways that we do not deserve. Also, we rejoice because we are confidently expecting that God [will gladly show] us how great he is.
3 Hindi lamang ito, ngunit nagagalak din tayo sa ating mga pagdurusa. Alam natin na ang pagdurusa ay nagbubunga ng pagtitiis.
We rejoice even when we suffer [as a result of our trusting in Christ], because we know that when we are suffering, the result is that we learn to endure things [patiently].
4 Ang pagtitiis ay nagbubunga ng pagsang-ayon, at ang pagsang-ayon ay nagbubunga ng katiyakan para sa hinaharap.
And [we know] that when we endure things [patiently], the result is that [God] approves [of us]. And when we [know that God] approves [of us], the result is that we confidently expect [that he will do great things for us].
5 Hindi mangbibigo ang pananalig na ito, dahil ang pag-ibig ng Diyos ay ibinuhos sa ating mga puso sa pamamagitan ng Banal na Espiritu, na siyang ibinigay sa atin.
And we are very confident [PRS] that we will receive the things that we wait expectantly [for], because God loves us very much. His Holy Spirit, who has been {whom [he] has} given to us, [causes] us to understand how much God loves us.
6 Sapagkat habang mahina pa lamang tayo, namatay si Cristo sa tamang panahon para sa mga hindi maka-diyos.
When we were unable [to save ourselves], it was Christ who, at the time [that God chose], died on behalf of [us] ungodly [people].
7 Sapagkat mahirap para sa isang tao na mamatay para sa isang matuwid na tao. Iyan ay, marahil kung may isang maglalakas-loob na mamatay para sa mabuting tao.
Rarely would anyone die on behalf of another person, [even if] that person were righteous, although someone might be courageous enough to die on behalf of a truly good person person.
8 Ngunit pinatunayan ng Diyos ang kaniyang pag-ibig sa atin, dahil noong makasalanan pa tayo, namatay si Cristo para sa atin.
Nevertheless, as for God, the way he showed us that he loves us is that Christ died on our behalf while we were still rebelling against God.
9 Mas higit pa sa ngayong napawalang-sala na tayo sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang dugo, maililigtas tayo sa pamamagitan nito mula sa poot ng Diyos.
The record of our sins has been erased {[God] has erased the record of our sins} because of [what Christ accomplished when] his blood [MTY] [flowed when he died]. So it is even more certain that we will be saved by Christ {that Christ will save us} from God’s punishing us [eternally] [MTY].
10 Sapagkat kung, noong tayo ay mga kaaway, ipinagkasundo tayo sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng kamatayan ng kaniyang Anak, higit pa ngayon na pagkatapos tayong ipinagkasundo, maililigtas tayo sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang buhay.
Even when we were acting hostilely towards God, he enabled us to have a peaceful relationship with him as a result of his Son dying [for us]. So it is even more certain that we will be saved {Christ will be able to save us} [from God’s punishing us] [MTY] because Christ is alive [again] and because [God] has enabled us to have a peaceful relationship [with himself].
11 Hindi lamang ito, ngunit nagagalak din tayo sa Diyos sa pamamagitan ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo, na sa pamamagitan niya ay natanggap natin ang pagkakasundong ito.
And that’s not all! Now we also rejoice about [the things that] God [has done for us] because of our Lord Jesus Christ [dying for us] and enabling us to have a peaceful relationship with God.
12 Kung gayon, sa pamamagitan ng isang tao pumasok ang kasalanan sa sanlibutan, sa ganitong kapamaraanan pumasok ang kamatayan dahil sa kasalanan. At lumaganap ang kamatayan sa sangkatauhan, dahil nagkasala ang lahat.
[What you can learn from what I have written so far is as follows]: All people are sinful [PRS], and that is the result of [Adam, the first] man whom [God created, sinning long ago]. Adam died [PRS] because he sinned. So, all people [who have lived since then] die, because [it is as though] all people sinned [when Adam sinned].
13 Sapagkat bago ang kautusan, ang kasalanan ay nasa sanlibutan na, ngunit walang pananagutan para sa kasalanan kung walang kautusan.
[People in] [MTY] the world sinned before [God gave his] laws [to Moses]. But people are not considered [by God] {[God] does not consider people} to be guilty for their sins if there is no law [stating that what they did was sinful].
14 Gayunpaman, naghari ang kamatayan mula kay Adan hanggang kay Moises, at kahit pa sa mga hindi nagkasala na katulad ng pagsuway ni Adan na siyang huwaran ng paparating.
But [we know] that from [the time when] Adam [lived] until [the time when] Moses [lived], all people sinned, and they died [as a consequence] [PRS, MET]. Even people who sinned differently from the way Adam [sinned, died]. [Adam’s sin] affected [all people], just like what [Christ did], the one who came later, can affect all people.
15 Ngunit gayunpaman, ang kaloob na walang bayad ay hindi gaya ng pagkakasala. Sapagkat kung sa pamamagitan ng pagkakasala ng isa ay namatay ang marami, mas higit pa na sumagana para sa marami ang biyaya ng Diyos at ang kaloob sa pamamagitan ng biyaya ng isang tao na si Jesu-Cristo.
But [the results of God’s erasing the record of our sins as] a gift to us are not like [the results of Adam’s] sinning. The result of one man, [Adam], sinning was that many/all people have died. But [it is certain], [however], that many people have abundantly experienced God’s acting kindly toward them in a way they did not deserve. [It is also certain] that they have experienced God’s erasing the record of their sins as the result of one man, Jesus Christ, acting kindly toward them/towards them in a way they did not deserve.
16 Sapagkat ang kaloob ay hindi tulad ng kinahantungan ng nagkasala. Sa isang banda, dumating ang paghatol ng kaparusahan dahil sa pagkakasala ng isang tao. Ngunit sa kabilang banda, ang kaloob na nagbubunga ng pagpapawalang-sala ay dumating pagkatapos ng maraming pagkakasala.
And [there is another way in which God’s] freely [erasing the record of our sins] is not like [the results of Adam’s] sinning. One person, [Adam, sinned]. As a result, God declared that all people deserve to be punished. Many people sinned. But what God did was that he erased the record of their sins without their earning it.
17 Sapagkat kung sa pamamagitan ng pagkakasala ng isa, ang kamatayan ay naghari sa pamamagitan ng isa, mas lalo nang maghahari ang mga tatanggap ng kasaganahan ng biyaya at ng kaloob ng katuwiran sa pamamagitan ng buhay ng isa na si Jesu-Cristo.
All people die [MET, PRS] because of what one man, [Adam], did. But now many of us experience that God has abundantly acted towards us in ways we did not deserve, and we experience that he has erased the record of our sins without our earning it. It is also very certain that we will rule [with Christ] (OR, share [the glory] of Christ’s being king), [in heaven. This will happen] because of [what] one man, Jesus Christ, [did for us].
18 Kung gayon, dahil sa pagkakasala ng isa, ang lahat ng tao ay dumating sa kaparusahan, gayon din sa pamamagitan ng isang gawa ng katuwiran ay dumating ang pagpapawalang-sala ng buhay para sa lahat ng tao.
So, [because one man, Adam], disobeyed [God’s law], that resulted in all people deserving to be punished {that God punish them}. Similarly, because one man, [Jesus], acted righteously [by obeying God when he died], the result was that God is [able to erase the record of] all people’s sins and [enable them to] live eternally.
19 Dahil sa pamamagitan ng pagsuway ng isang tao, ang lahat ay naging makasalanan, gayon din naman sa pamamagitan ng pagsunod ng isa, marami ang naging matuwid.
It was because one person, [Adam], disobeyed [God] that many/all people became sinners. Similarly, it is because one person, [Jesus], obeyed [God when he died] that the record of many people’s sins will be erased {that [he] will erase the record of many people’s sins}.
20 Ngunit dumating ang kautusan, upang sa gayon ang pagkakasala ay managana. Ngunit sa pananagana ng kasalanan, higit na nanagana ang biyaya.
[God gave] [PRS] his laws [to Moses] [PRS] in order that [people might realize] how greatly they had sinned; but as people sinned more, God continued to act even more kindly toward them, in a way that they did not deserve.
21 Nangyari ito upang, gaya ng kamatayan na naghahari sa kamatayan, gayon din naman ang biyaya ay maghari sa pamamagitan ng katuwiran para sa buhay na walang hanggan sa pamamagitan ni Jesu-Cristo na ating Panginoon. (aiōnios g166)
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios g166)
