Romans 8
1 There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh.
Na, kahore e tau te he inaianei ki te hunga i roto i a Karaiti Ihu.
2 For the law of the spirit of life, in Christ Jesus, hath delivered me from the law of sin and of death.
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.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh; God sending his own Son, in the likeness of sinful flesh and of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh;
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:
4 That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.
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.
5 For they that are according to the flesh, mind the things that are of the flesh; but they that are according to the spirit, mind the things that are of the spirit.
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.
6 For the wisdom of the flesh is death; but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.
Ko to te kikokiko whakaaro hoki he mate, ko to te Wairua ia he ora, he rangimarie:
7 Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.
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:
8 And they who are in the flesh, cannot please God.
A e kore e taea e te hunga i te kikokiko te whakamanawareka ki te Atua.
9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
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.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.
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.
11 And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
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.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.
Na reira, e oku teina, kahore he tikanga o te kikokiko kei runga i a tatou, kia whai tatou i tana:
13 For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.
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.
14 For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Ko te hunga hoki e arahina ana e te Wairua o te Atua, he tama ratou na te Atua.
15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).
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.
16 For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.
Ko taua Wairua ra ano hei whakaae ake ki o tatou wairua, he tamariki tatou na te Atua:
17 And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.
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.
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.
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.
19 For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.
Ko te tumanako hoki o te mea i hanga e tatari ana ki te whakakitenga mai o nga tama a te Atua.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:
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,
21 Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
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.
22 For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.
E mohio ana hoki tatou, kei te ngunguru tahi, kei te mamae tahi, nga mea hanga katoa taea noatia tenei ra.
23 And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.
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.
24 For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?
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?
25 But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.
Ki te tumanako atu ia tatou ki te mea kahore nei e kitea, katahi ka ata taria mariretia atu e tatou.
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings.
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.
27 And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.
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.
28 And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.
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.
29 For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.
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.
30 And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.
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.
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?
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?
32 He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?
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?
33 Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.
Ko wai hei whakapa he ki a te Atua i whiriwhiri ai? Ko te Atua ra hei whakatika;
34 Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
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.
35 Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?
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?
36 (As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)
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.
37 But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.
Engari i enei mea katoa hira ake te wikitoria i a tatou, he mea nana i aroha nei ki a tatou.
38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,
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,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
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.
