Warumi 5
Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
Berean Standard Bible
1Sasa, kwa vile tumekubaliwa kuwa wadilifu kwa imani, basi, tunayo amani na Mungu kwa ajili ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo.
1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2Kwa imani yetu, yeye ametuleta katika hali hii ya neema ya Mungu ambamo sasa tunaishi. Basi, tunajivunia tumaini tulilo nalo la kushiriki utukufu wa Mungu.
2through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
3Naam, si hayo tu, bali tunafurahi pia katika taabu tukijua kwamba taabu huleta saburi,
3Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
4nayo saburi huleta uthabiti, na uthabiti huleta tumaini.
4perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5Tumaini hilo haliwezi kutuhadaa, maana Mungu amekwisha miminia mioyoni mwetu upendo wake kwa njia ya Roho Mtakatifu aliyetujalia.
5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.
6Tulipokuwa bado wanyonge, Kristo, wakati ulipotimia, alikufa kwa ajili yetu sisi waovu.
6For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
7Si rahisi mtu kufa kwa ajili ya mtu mwadilifu; labda mtu anaweza kuthubutu kufa kwa ajili ya mtu mwema.
7Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.
8Lakini Mungu amethibitisha kwamba anatupenda, maana wakati tulipokuwa bado wenye dhambi, Kristo alikufa kwa ajili yetu.
8But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9Kwa kuwa sasa tumekubaliwa kuwa waadilifu kwa damu ya Kristo, ni dhahiri zaidi kwamba atatuokoa katika ghadhabu ya Mungu.
9Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him!
10Maana, tulipokuwa bado adui zake, Mungu alitupatanisha naye kwa kifo cha Mwanae. Na kwa vile sasa tumepatanishwa naye, ni dhahiri zaidi kwamba tutaokolewa kwa uzima wa Kristo.
10For if, when we were enemies of God, we were reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through His life!
11Wala si hayo tu, ila tunafurahi pia katika Mungu kwa njia ya Bwana wetu Yesu Kristo ambaye ametupatanisha na Mungu.
11Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
12Kwa njia ya mtu mmoja dhambi iliingia ulimwenguni, nayo ikasababisha kifo. Hivyo kifo kimeenea katika jumuiya yote ya binadamu, kwa maana wote wametenda dhambi.
12Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so also death was passed on to all men, because all sinned.
13Kabla ya Sheria kuwako, dhambi ilikuwako ulimwenguni; lakini dhambi haiwekwi katika kumbukumbu bila sheria.
13For sin was in the world before the law was given; but sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14Lakini tangu wakati wa Adamu mpaka wakati wa Mose, kifo kiliwatawala hata wale ambao hawakutenda dhambi kama ile ya Adamu, ya kumwasi Mungu. Adamu alikuwa kielelezo cha yule ambaye atakuja baadaye.
14Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who did not sin in the way that Adam transgressed. He is a pattern of the One to come.
15Lakini ipo tofauti: neema ya Mungu si kama dhambi ya Adamu. Maana, ingawa dhambi ya mtu mmoja ilisababisha kifo kwa wote, kwa fadhili ya mtu mmoja, yaani Yesu Kristo, Mungu amewazidishia wote neema na zawadi zake.
15But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many!
16Kuna tofauti baina ya zawadi ya Mungu, na dhambi ya mtu yule mmoja. Maana, baada ya kosa la mtu mmoja, Mungu alitoa hukumu; lakini baada ya makosa ya watu wengi, Mungu aliwapa zawadi yake kwa kuwasamehe.
16Again, the gift is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment that followed one sin brought condemnation, but the gift that followed many trespasses brought justification.
17Kweli, kwa dhambi ya mtu mmoja kifo kilianza kutawala kwa sababu ya huyo mtu mmoja; lakini, ni dhahiri zaidi kwamba alichokifanya yule mtu mmoja, yaani Yesu Kristo, ni bora zaidi. Wote wanaopokea neema na zawadi hiyo ya kukubaliwa kuwa waadilifu, watatawala katika uzima kwa njia ya huyo mmoja, yaani Yesu Kristo.
17For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive an abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
18Basi, kama vile kosa la mtu mmoja lilivyoleta hukumu kwa binadamu wote, kadhalika kitendo kimoja kiadilifu kinawapa uhuru na uzima.
18So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all men.
19Na kama kwa kutotii kwa mtu mmoja watu wengi walifanywa wenye dhambi, kadhalika kutii kwa mtu mmoja kutawafanya wengi wakubaliwe kuwa waadilifu.
19For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.
20Sheria ilitokea, ikasababisha kuongezeka kwa uhalifu; lakini pale dhambi ilipoongezeka, neema iliongezeka zaidi.
20The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21Kama vile dhambi ilivyotawala kwa kifo, kadhalika neema inatawala kwa njia ya uadilifu, na kuleta uzima wa milele kwa njia ya Yesu Kristo Bwana wetu.
21so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
