1Ko ia ʻi he fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakitautolu ʻe he tui, ʻoku tau melino ai mo e ʻOtua ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi:
1Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2ʻAia 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.
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.
3Pea 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;
3Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
4Pea mei he faʻa kātaki, ʻae ʻilo; pea mei he ʻilo, ʻae ʻamanaki lelei:
4perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5Pea 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.
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.
6He naʻe lolotonga ʻetau vaivai ʻaupito, pea pekia ʻa Kalaisi ʻi he kuonga tuʻutuʻumālie koeʻuhi ko e taʻelotu.
6For at just the right time, while we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
7ʻE 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.
7Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.
8Ka ʻoku fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua ʻene ʻofa kiate kitautolu ʻi he meʻa ni, lolotonga ko e kau angahala ʻakitautolu, ne pekia ʻa Kalaisi maʻatautolu.
8But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9Pea ka ko ia, pea ʻe ʻāsili ʻae fakamoʻui ʻokitautolu mei he houhau ʻiate ia, he kuo fakatonuhiaʻi ʻakitautolu ʻi hono taʻataʻa.
9Therefore, since we have now been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from wrath through Him!
10He 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.
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!
11Pea 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.
11Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
12Pea 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:
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.
13(He naʻe ʻi he māmani ʻae angahala ʻo aʻu ki he fono: ka ʻoku ʻikai lau ʻae angahala ʻi he ʻikai ha fono.
13For sin was in the world before the law was given; but sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
14Ka 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.
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.
15Ka 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.
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!
16Pea 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.
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.
17He 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.)
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!
18Pea 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.
18So then, just as one trespass brought condemnation for all men, so also one act of righteousness brought justification and life for all men.
19Koeʻuhi 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.
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.
20Ka 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:
20The law came in so that the trespass would increase; but where sin increased, grace increased all the more,
21Koeʻuhi 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.
21so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
