Loma 8
1 Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai ha fakamalaʻia kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ki he kakano, ka ki he Laumālie.
Now then there is no condemnation to them that are in Christ Iesus, which walke not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 He ko e fono ʻoe Laumālie ʻoe moʻui ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, kuo ne fakatauʻatāina au mei he fono ʻoe angahala mo e mate.
For the Lawe of the Spirite of life, which is in Christ Iesus, hath freed mee from the lawe of sinne and of death.
3 He ko ia naʻe ʻikai mafai ʻe he fono, ko e meʻa ʻi hono vaivai ʻi he kakano, kuo fai ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi heʻene fekau hono ʻAlo ʻoʻona ʻi he tatau ʻoe kakano angahala, pea ko e feilaulau ki he angahala, pea ne fakavaivai ʻae angahala ʻi he kakano:
For (that that was impossible to ye Lawe, in as much as it was weake, because of ye flesh) God sending his owne Sonne, in ye similitude of sinful flesh, and for sinne, condened sinne in the flesh,
4 Koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ki he māʻoniʻoni ʻoe fono ʻekitautolu, ʻoku ʻikai ke muimui ki he kakano, ka ki he Laumālie.
That that righteousnes of the Law might be fulfilled in vs, which walke not after ye flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 He ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻoe kakano, ʻoku nau tokanga ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoe kakano; ka ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻoe Laumālie, ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoe Laumālie.
For they that are after the flesh, sauour the things of the flesh: but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6 He ko e loto fakakakano, ko e mate ia; ka ko e loto fakalaumālie, ko e moʻui ia mo e melino.
For the wisedome of the flesh is death: but the wisedome of the Spirit is life and peace,
7 Koeʻuhi ko e loto fakakakano, ko e taufehiʻa ia ki he ʻOtua: he ʻoku ʻikai ke moʻulaloa ia ki he fono ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻaupito faʻa fai ke pehē.
Because the wisedome of the flesh is enimitie against God: for it is not subiect to the Lawe of God, neither in deede can be.
8 Ko ia ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi he kakano, ʻoku ʻikai te nau faʻa fai ke fiemālie ʻae ʻOtua.
So then they that are in the flesh, can not please God.
9 Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he kakano ʻakimoutolu, ka ʻi he Laumālie, ʻo kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua. Pea ko eni, kapau ʻoku ʻikai maʻu ʻe ha tangata ʻae Laumālie ʻo Kalaisi, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻana ia.
Now ye are not in the flesh, but in ye Spirit, because ye spirit of God dwelleth in you: but if any man hath not ye Spirit of Christ, ye same is not his.
10 Pea kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe Kalaisi, pea kuo mate moʻoni ʻae sino, ko e meʻa ʻi he angahala; kae moʻui ʻae laumālie, ko e meʻa ʻi he māʻoniʻoni.
And if Christ bee in you, the body is dead, because of sinne: but the Spirite is life for righteousnesse sake.
11 Pea kapau ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he Laumālie ʻo ia naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa Sisu mei he pekia, pea ko ia naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻa Kalaisi mei he pekia, te ne fakaake foki mo homou sino matengofua ʻaki hono Laumālie ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu.
But if the Spirit of him that raised vp Iesus from the dead, dwell in you, he that raised vp Christ from the dead, shall also quicken your mortall bodies, by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Ko ia, ʻe kāinga, ko e kau fai totongi ʻakitautolu, kae ʻikai ki he kakano, ke tau moʻui ki he kakano.
Therefore brethren, wee are detters not to the flesh, to liue after the flesh:
13 He kapau te mou moʻui ki he kakano, te mou mate: ka ʻoka mou ka tāmateʻi ʻae ngaahi anga ʻoe kakano ʻaki ʻae Laumālie, te mou moʻui.
For if ye liue after the flesh, ye shall die: but if yee mortifie the deedes of the body by the Spirit, ye shall liue.
14 He ko kinautolu ʻoku takiekina ʻe he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua, ko e ngaahi foha ʻakinautolu ʻoe ʻOtua.
For as many as are ledde by the Spirit of God, they are the sonnes of God.
15 He ʻoku ʻikai ke maʻu ʻekimoutolu ʻae laumālie ʻoe pōpula, ke mou toe manavahē; ka kuo mou maʻu ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ohi, ʻaia ʻoku tau tangi ai, “ʻApā, Tamai.”
For ye haue not receiued the Spirit of bodage, to feare againe: but ye haue receiued the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry Abba, Father.
16 Pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni ʻe he Laumālie pē ko ia mo hotau laumālie, ko e fānau ʻae ʻOtua ʻakitautolu:
The same Spirit beareth witnesse with our spirit, that we are the children of God.
17 Pea kapau ko e fānau, pea tā ko e kau hoko; ko e kau hoko ki he ʻOtua, pea ko e kau hoko fakataha mo Kalaisi; ʻo kapau te tau mamahi mo ia, koeʻuhi ke tau maʻu ʻae hakeakiʻi fakataha mo ia.
If we be children, we are also heires, euen the heires of God, and heires annexed with Christ: if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
18 He ʻoku ou pehē, ʻoku ʻikai ngali ke fakatatau ʻae ngaahi mamahi ʻoe moʻui ni ki he nāunau ʻaia ʻe fakahā kiate kitautolu.
For I count that the afflictions of this present time are not worthy of the glory, which shalbe shewed vnto vs.
19 He ko e holi lahi ʻoe māmani, ʻoku tatali ia ki he fakahā ʻae fānau ʻae ʻOtua.
For the feruent desire of the creature waiteth when the sonnes of God shalbe reueiled,
20 He naʻe fakamoʻulaloa ʻa māmani ki he vaʻinga, (kae ʻikai loto ia ki ai, ka ko e meʻa ʻiate ia kuo ne fakamoʻulaloa ia, ) ʻi he ʻamanaki lelei:
Because the creature is subiect to vanitie, not of it owne will, but by reason of him, which hath subdued it vnder hope,
21 He koeʻuhi ʻe fakahaofi ʻa māmani mei he haʻi ʻoe ʻauʻauha ki he tauʻatāina monūʻia ʻoe fānau ʻae ʻOtua.
Because the creature also shall be deliuered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious libertie of the sonnes of God.
22 He ʻoku tau ʻilo, ʻoku toʻetoʻe mo feinga ʻi he langā fakataha ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻo aʻu ki heni.
For we knowe that euery creature groneth with vs also, and trauaileth in paine together vnto this present.
23 Pea ʻoku ʻikai ko ia pē, ka ko kitautolu foki, ʻakitautolu ʻoku maʻu ʻae ʻuluaki fua ʻoe Laumālie, ʻio, ʻoku tau toʻetoʻe ʻi loto ʻiate kitautolu, mo tatali ki he ohi, ʻa ia, ko e huhuʻi ʻo hotau sino.
And not onely the creature, but we also which haue the first fruites of the Spirit, euen we doe sigh in our selues, waiting for the adoption, euen the redemption of our body.
24 He ʻoku fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻe he ʻamanaki lelei: ka ko e ʻamanaki ʻoku maʻu, ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻamanaki ia, he ko ia ʻoku maʻu ʻe ha tangata, ʻe fēfeeʻi ʻa ʻene kei ʻamanaki ki ai?
For we are saued by hope: but hope that is seene, is not hope: for how can a man hope for that which he seeth?
25 Pea kapau ʻoku tau ʻamanaki lelei ki he meʻa ʻoku heʻeki ai te tau maʻu, ʻoku tau tatali faʻa kātaki pe ki ai.
But if we hope for that we see not, we doe with patience abide for it.
26 Pea ko e Laumālie foki, ʻoku ne tokoniʻi ʻetau ngaahi vaivai: he ʻoku ʻikai te tau ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku totonu ke tau lotua; ka ʻoku hūfekina ʻakitautolu ʻe he Laumālie pe ko ia ʻi he ngaahi toʻe ʻoku taʻefaʻaleaʻaki.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we knowe not what to pray as wee ought: but the Spirit it selfe maketh request for vs with sighs, which cannot be expressed.
27 Ka ko ia ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae loto, ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi mo e finangalo ʻoe Laumālie, he ʻoku ne hūfekina ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni ʻo taau mo e ʻOtua.
But he that searcheth the heartes, knoweth what is the meaning of the Spirit: for he maketh request for ye Saints, according to the wil of God.
28 Pea ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻoku fengāueʻaki fakataha ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ke lelei ai ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ʻakinautolu kuo ui ʻo tatau mo ʻene tuʻutuʻuni.
Also we knowe that all thinges worke together for the best vnto them that loue God, euen to them that are called of his purpose.
29 He ko kinautolu naʻa ne tomuʻa ʻilo, naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni foki ki he tatau ʻo hono ʻAlo, koeʻuhi ke hoko ia ko e ʻuluaki fānau ʻi he kāinga tokolahi:
For those which hee knewe before, he also predestinate to bee made like to the image of his Sonne, that hee might be the first borne among many brethren.
30 Pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne tuʻutuʻuni, naʻa ne ui ʻakinautolu foki: pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne ui, naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakinautolu foki: pea ko kinautolu naʻa ne fakatonuhiaʻi, naʻa ne hakeakiʻi ʻakinautolu.
Moreouer whom he predestinate, them also he called, and whom he called, them also he iustified, and whom he iustified, them he also glorified.
31 Pea ko e hā te tau leaʻaki ki he ngaahi meʻa ni? Ka kuo kau ʻae ʻOtua maʻatautolu, pea ko hai ʻe angatuʻu kiate kitautolu?
What shall we then say to these thinges? If God be on our side, who can be against vs?
32 Ko ia ia naʻe ʻikai te ne mamae ki hono ʻAlo ʻoʻona, ka ne tukuange ia koeʻuhi ko kitautolu kotoa pē, pea fēfē, ʻe ʻikai te ne foaki fiemālie foki mo ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē kiate kitautolu?
Who spared not his owne Sonne, but gaue him for vs all to death, how shall he not with him giue vs all things also?
33 Ko hai te ne talatalaakiʻi ʻae kakai kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua? Ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoku ne fakatonuhiaʻi.
Who shall lay any thing to the charge of Gods chosen? it is God that iustifieth,
34 Ko hai ia ʻoku ne fakahalaia? Ko Kalaisi ia naʻe pekia, ʻio, pea kuo toetuʻu hake, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he nima toʻomataʻu ʻoe ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ne fai ʻae hūfekina foki maʻatautolu.
Who shall condemne? it is Christ which is dead, yea, or rather, which is risen againe, who is also at the right hand of God, and maketh request also for vs.
35 Ko hai te ne fakamāvae ʻakitautolu mei he ʻofa ʻa Kalaisi? ʻAe mahaki, pe ko e mamahi, pe ko e fakatanga, pe ko e honge, pe ko e telefua, pe ko e tuʻutāmaki, pe ko e heletā?
Who shall separate vs from the loue of Christ? shall tribulation or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakednesse, or perill, or sworde?
36 ʻO hangē ko ia kuo tohi, “Koeʻuhi ko koe ʻoku tāmateʻi ʻakimautolu ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē; pea lau ʻakimautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipi ki he tāmateʻi.”
As it is written, For thy sake are we killed all day long: we are counted as sheepe for the slaughter.
37 Ka ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ʻoku tau ikuna pea mālohi lahi ʻiate ia naʻe ʻofa kiate kitautolu.
Neuerthelesse, in all these thinges we are more then coquerours through him that loued vs.
38 He ʻoku ou ʻilo pau, ʻe ʻikai ʻi he he kau ʻāngelo, pe ʻi he kau pule, pe ʻi he ngaahi mālohi, pe ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻi heni, pe ʻi he ngaahi meʻa ʻe hoko,
For I am perswaded that neither death, nor life, nor Angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Pe ʻi he māʻolunga, pe ʻi he māʻulalo, pe ʻi ha meʻa kehe ʻe taha kuo ngaohi, ʻe ʻikai mafai ia ke fakamāvae ʻakitautolu mei he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu ko hotau ʻEiki.
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shalbe able to separate vs from the loue of God, which is in Christ Iesus our Lord.
