1 ف َبِما أنَّنا قَدْ تَبَرَّرنا بِالإيمانِ، فَقَدْ صارَ لَنا سَلامٌ مَعَ اللهِ بِرَبِّنا يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ.
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 ك َما صارَ لَنا امتِيازُ الدُّخُولِ بِالإيمانِ إلَى هَذِهِ النِّعمَةِ الَّتِي نَعيشُ فِيها الآنَ. وَنَحنُ مُبتَهِجُونَ لِأنَّنا نَتَوَقَّعُ المُشارَكَةَ فِي مَجدِ اللهِ.
through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 و َلَيسَ هَذا فَقَطْ، بَلْ إنَّنا نَبتَهِجُ حَتَّى فِي ضِيقاتِنا. لِأنَّنا نَعرِفُ أنَّ الضِّيقَ يُنتِجُ صَبراً،
And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
4 و َالصَّبرُ بُرْهانُ القُوَّةِ. وَهَذا البُرْهانُ يُنتِجُ رَجاءً.
and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5 و َالرَّجاءُ لَنْ يَخذِلَنا، لِأنَّ اللهَ قَدْ سَكَبَ مَحَبَّتَهُ فِي قُلُوبِنا بِالرُّوحِ القُدُسِ الَّذِي أُعطِيَ لَنا.
Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. Christ in Our Place
6 ف َحِينَ كُنّا عاجِزِينَ عَنْ تَخلِيصِ أنفُسِنا، ماتَ المَسِيحُ فِي الوَقتِ المُناسِبِ مِنْ أجلِنا نَحنُ الأشرارَ.
For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 ي َصعُبُ أنْ يُضَحِّيَ إنسانٌ بِحَياتِهِ حَتَّىْ مِنْ أجلِ إنسانٍ صالِحْ، وَرُبَّما يَتَجَرَّأُ وَيَمُوتُ مِنْ أجلِ إنسانٍ صالِحٍ.
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.
8 ل َكِنَّ اللهَ أظهَرَ مَحَبَّتَهُ لَنا، إذْ ماتَ المَسِيحُ مِنْ أًجلِنا وَنَحنُ بَعدُ فِي خَطايانا.
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
9 ف َبِما أنَّنا تَبَرَّرنا بِدَمِ يَسُوعَ، نَكُونُ أكثَرَ يَقِيناً الآنَ بِأنَّنا سَنَنجُو مِنْ غَضَبِ اللهِ.
Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.
10 ف َإنْ كُنّا، وَنَحنُ أعداءٌ للهِ، قَدْ تَصالَحنا مَعَهُ بِمَوتِ ابنِهِ، فَما أعظَمَ الخَلاصَ الَّذِي سَنَتَمَتَّعُ بِهِ الآنَ بِحَياةِ ابنِهِ، وَنَحنُ مُصالَحُونَ!
For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
11 ب َلْ وَنَبتَهِجُ أيضاً بِاللهِ، بِرَبِّنا يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ، الَّذَي حَصَلنا عَلَى المُصالَحَةِ مِنْ خِلالِهِ. الموت بآدَمُ وَالحياة بِالمسيح
And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation. Death in Adam, Life in Christ
12 ل َقَدْ دَخَلَتِ الخَطِيَّةُ إلَى العالَمِ مِنْ خِلالِ إنسانٍ واحِدٍ، وَبِالخَطِيَّةِ دَخَلَ المَوتُ. وَهَكَذا سادَ المَوتُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ النّاسِ، لِأنَّ الجَمِيعَ قَدْ أخطَأُوا.
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—
13 ك انَتِ الخَطِيَّةُ فِي العالَمِ قَبلَ إعلانِ الشَّرِيعَةِ. لَكِنَّ الخَطِيَّةَ لا تُحسَبُ إنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ هُناكَ شَرِيعَةٌ.
(For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 إ لّا أنَّ المَوتَ قَدْ سادَ عَلَى النّاسِ مُنذُ زَمَنِ آدَمَ إلَى زَمَنِ مُوسَى. وَقَدْ سادَ المَوتُ حَتَّى عَلَى الَّذِينَ لَمْ يُخطِئُوا عَلَى طَرِيقَةِ آدَمَ الَّذِي خالَفَ وَصِيَّةَ اللهَ. وَآدَمُ صُورَةٌ لِلمَسِيحِ الآتِي.
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.
15 و َلَكِنَّ عَطِيَّةَ اللهِ المَجّانِيَّةَ لَمْ تَكُنْ كَخَطِيَّةِ آدَمَ. لِأنَّهُ إنْ ماتَ جَمِيعُ النّاسِ بِسَبَبِ خَطِيَّةِ ذَلِكَ الواحِدِ، فَالأولَى أنْ تَفِيضَ نِعمَةُ اللهِ، وَالعَطِيَّةُ الَّتِي جاءَتْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ النّاسِ بِنِعمَةِ الواحِدِ يَسُوعَ.
But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.
16 ف َنَتِيجَةُ عَطِيَّةِ اللهِ لَيسَتْ كَنَتِيجَةِ خَطِيَّةِ ذَلِكَ الإنسانِ الواحِدِ. فَقَدْ جاءَ الحُكمُ المُؤَدِّي إلَى الدَّينُونَةِ بَعدَ خَطِيَّةٍ واحِدَةٍ. أمّا العَطِيَّةُ المُؤَدِّيَةُ إلَى البِرِّ فَجاءَتْ بَعدَ خَطايا كَثِيرَةٍ.
And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned. For the judgment which came from one offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses resulted in justification.
17 ف َبِما أنَّ المَوتَ قَدْ مَلَكَ عَلَى النّاسِ مِنْ خِلالِ ذَلِكَ الواحِدِ: آدَمَ، وَبِسَبَبِ مَعصِيَتِهِ الواحِدَةِ، فَالأولَى أنَّ الَّذِينَ يَتَمَتَّعُونَ بِفَيضِ النِّعمَةِ وَعَطِيَّةِ البِرِّ سَيَملُكونَ فِي الحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ مِنْ خِلالِ الواحِدِ: يَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ.
For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)
18 ل َقَدْ جاءَتِ الدَّينُونَةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ النّاسِ بِمَعصِيَةٍ واحِدَةٍ. وَكَذَلِكَ جاءَ البِرُّ المُؤَدِّي إلَى الحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ لِجَمِيعِ النّاسِ بِعَمَلٍ بارٍّ واحِدٍ.
Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.
19 ف َكَما صارَ الكَثِيرُونَ خُطاةً بِمَعصِيَةِ إنسانٍ واحِدٍ، سَيُجعَلُ الكَثِيرُونَ أبراراً بِطاعَةِ الواحِدِ.
For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.
20 و َأمّا الشَّرِيعَةُ فَقَدْ جاءَتْ لِكَي يَزدادَ التَّعَدِّي عَلَى الشَّرِيعَةِ! لَكِنْ حَيثُ تَزدادُ الخَطِيَّةُ، تَزدادُ نِعمَةُ اللهِ أكثَرَ.
Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,
21 ف َكَما مَلَكَتِ الخَطِيَّةُ مِنْ خِلالِ المَوتِ، كَذَلِكَ قَدَّمَ اللهُ نِعمَتَهُ لِكَي تَملُكَ بِتَبريرِنا، فَتُؤَدِّيَ إلَى الحَياةِ الأبَدِيَّةِ بِيَسُوعَ المَسِيحِ رَبِّنا.
so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
