1 Ko ia ʻi he fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe he tui, ʻoku tau melino ai mo e ʻOtua ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi:
Since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
2 ‌ʻAia ʻoku tau maʻu ai foki ʻae hūʻanga ʻi he tui ki he monūʻia ni ʻoku tau tuʻu ai, pea fiefia ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei ki he hakeakiʻi mei he ʻOtua.
Through him we also have our access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in the certain hope of the glory of God.
3 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ke ngata ai, ka ʻoku tau vikiviki ʻi he ngaahi mamahi foki: ʻi heʻetau ʻilo ʻoku tupu mei he mamahi ʻae faʻa kātaki;
Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings. We know that suffering produces endurance.
4 Pea mei he faʻa kātaki, ʻae ʻilo; pea mei he ʻilo, ʻae ʻamanaki lelei:
Endurance produces character, and character produces certain hope,
5 Pea ʻoku ʻikai fakamā ʻe he ʻamanaki lelei; he koeʻuhi kuo lilingi ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua ki hotau loto ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻaia kuo foaki kiate kitautolu.
and that hope does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
6 He naʻe lolotonga ʻetau vaivai ʻaupito, pea pekia ʻa Kalaisi ʻi he kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie koeʻuhi ko e taʻelotu.
For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 ‌ʻE meimei ʻikai ʻaupito [fie ]mate ha tokotaha koeʻuhi ko e tangata angatonu [pē]: ka ʻe faʻa fai ʻapē ke mate ha tokotaha koeʻuhi ko e tangata angalelei.
For one will hardly die for a righteous man. That is, perhaps someone would dare to die for a good person.
8 Ka ʻoku fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua ʻene ʻofa kiate kitautolu ʻi he meʻa ni, lolotonga ko e kau angahala ʻakitautolu, ne pekia ʻa Kalaisi maʻatautolu.
But God proves his own love toward us, because while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Pea ka ko ia, pea ʻe ʻāsili ʻae fakamoʻui ʻokitautolu mei he houhau ʻiate ia, he kuo fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakitautolu ʻi hono taʻataʻa.
Much more, then, now that we are justified by his blood, we will be saved by it from the wrath of God.
10 He kapau ne fakalelei ʻakitautolu ki he ʻOtua ʻi he pekia ʻa hono ʻAlo, ka ko e ngaahi fili ʻakitautolu, pea tā ʻe ʻāsili hotau fakamoʻui ʻi heʻene moʻui, he kuo tau fakalelei.
For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, after having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life.
11 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ngata ai, ka ʻoku tau fiefia foki ʻi he ʻOtua ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻaia kuo tau maʻu ai ʻae fakalelei.
Not only this, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we now have received this reconciliation.
12 Pea ko ia, ʻo hangē naʻe hoko mai ʻae angahala ki māmani, mo e mate mei he angahala, ʻi he tangata pe taha; pea naʻe pehē ʻae hoko ʻoe mate ki he kakai kotoa pē, he kuo angahala kotoa pē:
So then, as through one man sin entered into the world, in this way death entered through sin. And death spread to all people, because all sinned.
13 (He naʻe ʻi he māmani ʻae angahala ʻo aʻu ki he fono: ka ʻoku ʻikai lau ʻae angahala ʻi he ʻikai ha fono.
For until the law, sin was in the world, but there is no accounting for sin when there is no law.
14 Ka naʻe pule ʻae mate meia ʻAtama ʻo aʻu kia Mōsese, kiate kinautolu foki naʻe ʻikai angahala ʻo fakatatau ki he fai hala ʻa ʻAtama, ʻaia ko e fakatātā ʻo ia ʻe haʻu ʻamui.
Nevertheless, death ruled from Adam until Moses, even over those who did not sin like Adam's disobedience, who is a pattern of him who was to come.
15 Ka ʻoku ʻikai ke fai tatau ʻae fai hala mo e foaki ʻofa. He kapau kuo mate ʻae tokolahi ʻi he fai hala ʻae tokotaha, [pehē], kuo aʻu ʻo lahi hake ʻaupito ki he tokolahi ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, mo e foaki ʻi he ʻofa, ʻi he tangata pe taha, ko Sisu Kalaisi.
But the gift is not like the trespass. For if by the trespass of one the many died, how much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound for the many!
16 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ke fai tatau ʻae fai angahala ʻoe tokotaha pe, mo e foaki ʻofa; he ko e meʻa ʻi he [angahala ]pe taha naʻe fakamaau ai ke malaʻia, ka ko e foaki ʻofa ko e fakatonuhia ia mei he ngaahi angahala lahi.
For the gift is not like the outcome of that one man's sin. The judgment followed one trespass and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification.
17 He kapau ʻoku pule ʻae mate mei he tokotaha, ko e meʻa ʻi he fai angahala ʻae tokotaha; [pehē], ʻe ʻāsili ai ʻae pule ʻi he moʻui ʻekinautolu ʻoku maʻu hono lahi ʻaupito ʻoe ʻofa mo e foaki ʻoe fakatonuhia ʻi he tokotaha, ko Sisu Kalaisi.)
For if, by the trespass of the one, death ruled through the one, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ.
18 Pea ko eni, ʻo hangē kuo hoko ʻi he angahala ʻae tokotaha ʻae fakamalaʻia ki he kakai kotoa pē: pea pehē foki, ko e meʻa ʻi he māʻoniʻoni ʻae tokotaha kuo hoko ʻae fakatonuhia ʻoe moʻui ki he kakai kotoa pē.
So then, by one trespass condemnation came to all people, so also one act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all people.
19 Koeʻuhi ʻo hangē naʻe fakahalaia ʻae tokolahi ʻi he talangataʻa ʻae tangata ʻe tokotaha, pehē, ko e meʻa ʻi he talangofua ʻae tokotaha ʻe fakatonuhiaʻi ʻae tokolahi.
For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one will the many be made righteous.
20 Ka naʻe fakahū mai ʻae fono, pe tupulekina pe ʻae angahala. Ka ko ia naʻe tupulekina ai ʻae angahala, kuo lahi ʻaupito ai hono tupulekina ʻoe ʻofa:
But the law came in to increase the trespass. But where sin abounded, grace abounded even more.
21 Koeʻuhi ke hangē ko e pule ʻae angahala ʻo aʻu ki he mate, ke pehē ʻae pule ʻoe ʻofa ʻi he fakatonuhia ʻo aʻu ki he moʻui taʻengata ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi. (aiōnios g166)
This happened so that, as sin ruled in death, even so grace might rule through righteousness for everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
