Romakëve 8
Albanian Bible

8 Tani, pra, nuk ka asnjë dënim për ata që janë në Krishtin Jezu, që nuk ecin sipas mishit, por sipas Frymës,

2 sepse ligji i Frymës i jetës në Jezu Krishtin më çliroi nga ligji i mëkatit dhe i vdekjes.

3 Sepse atë që ishte e pamundur për ligjin, sepse ishte pa forcë për shkak të mishit, Perëndia, duke dërguar birin e vet në shëmbëllim mishi mëkatar, edhe për mëkat, e dënoi mëkatin në mish,

4 që të përmbushet drejtësia e ligjit në ne, që nuk ecim sipas mishit, por sipas Frymës.

5 Sepse ata që rrojnë sipas mishit e çojnë mendjen në gjërat e mishit, por ata që rrojnë sipas Frymës në gjërat e Frymës.

6 Në fakt mendja e kontrolluar nga mishi prodhon vdekje, por mendja e kontro-lluar nga Fryma prodhon jetë dhe paqe.

7 Në fakt mendja e kontrolluar nga mishi është armiqësi kundër Perëndisë, sepse nuk i nënshtrohet ligjit të Perëndisë dhe as nuk mundet.

8 Prandaj ata që janë në mish nuk mund t’i pëlqejnë Perëndisë.

9 Nëse Fryma e Perëndisë banon në ju, ju nuk jeni më në mish, por në Frymë. Por në qoftë se ndokush nuk ka Frymën e Krishtit, ai nuk i përket atij.

10 Nëse Krishti është në ju, trupi pa tjetër është i vdekur për shkak të mëkatit, por Fryma është jetë për shkak të drejtësisë.

11 Dhe në qoftë se Fryma i atij që ringjalli Krishtin prej së vdekurish banon në ju, ai që e ringjalli Krishtin prej së vdekurish do t’u japë jetë edhe trupave tuaj vdekatarë me anë të Frymës së tij që banon në ju.

12 Prandaj, vëllezër, ne jemi debitorë jo të mishit, që të rrojmë sipas mishit,

13 sepse, po të rroni sipas mishit, ju do të vdisni; por, nëse me anë të Frymës i bëni të vdesin veprat e trupit, ju do të rroni.

14 Sepse të gjithë ata që udhëhiqen nga Fryma e Perëndisë janë bij të Perëndisë.

15 Sepse ju nuk keni marrë një frymë robërie, që të keni përsëri frikë, po keni marrë frymën e birërisë, me anë të së cilës ne thërrasim: “Aba, o Atë!.”

16 Vetë Fryma i dëshmon frymës sonë se ne jemi bij të Perëndisë.

17 Dhe nëse jemi bij, jemi dhe trashëgimtarë, trashëgimtarë të Perëndisë dhe bashkëtrashëgimtarë të Krishtit, nëse vuajmë më të dhe lavdohemi me të.

18 Unë mendoj në fakt, se vuajtjet e kohës së tanishme nuk vlejnë aspak të krahasohen me lavdinë që do të shfaqet në ne.

19 Sepse dëshira e flaktë e krijesës pret me padurim shfaqjen e bijve të Perëndisë,

20 sepse krijesa iu nënshtrua kotësisë, jo me vullnetin e vet, po për shkak të atij që e nënshtroi,

21 me shpresë që vetë krijesa të çlirohet nga skllavëria e prishjes për të hyrë në lirinë e lavdisë së bijve të Perëndisë.

22 Sepse e dimë se deri tani mbarë bota e krijuar rënkon dhe është në mundim.

23 Dhe jo vetëm kaq, por edhe ne vetë që kemi frytet e para të Frymës, vajtojmë në veten tonë, duke pritur flakët birërimin, shpengimin e trupit tonë.

24 Sepse me shpresë ne shpëtuam; por shpresa që duket nuk është shpresë, sepse atë që dikush e sheh si mundet edhe ta shpresojë?

25 Por në qoftë se ne shpresojmë atë që s’e shohim, atë gjë e presim me durim.

26 Kështu, pra, edhe Fryma na ndihmon në dobësitë tona, sepse ne nuk dimë çfarë të kërkojmë në lutjet tona, sikurse duhet; por vetë Fryma ndërhyn për ne me psherëtima të patregueshme.

27 Dhe ai që heton zemrat e di cila është mendja e Frymës, sepse ai ndërhyn për shenjtorët, sipas Perëndisë.

28 Dhe ne e dimë se të gjitha gjëra bashkëveprojnë për të mirë për ata që e duan Perëndinë, për ata që janë të thirrur sipas qëllimit të tij.

29 Sepse ata që ai i ka njohur që më parë, edhe i ka paracaktuar që të jenë të ngjashëm me shëmbëlltyrën e Birit të tij, kështu që ai të jetë i parëlinduri në mes të shumë vëllezërve.

30 Dhe ata që ai i paracaktoi edhe i thirri; dhe ata që i thirri edhe i shfajësoi; dhe ata që i shfajësoi, ata edhe i përlëvdoi.

31 Çfarë të themi, pra, për këto gjëra? Në qoftë se Perëndia është me ne, kush mund të jetë kundër nesh?

32 Sepse ai që nuk e kurseu Birin e vet, por e dha për të gjithë ne, qysh nuk do të na dhurojë të gjitha gjëra bashkë me të?

33 Kush do t’i padisë të zgjedhurit e Perëndisë? Perëndia është ai që i shfajëson.

34 Kush është ai që do t’i dënojë? Krishti është ai që vdiq, po për më tepër ai u ringjall; ai është në të djathtë të Perëndisë dhe ai ndërmjetëson për ne.

35 Kush do të na ndajë nga dashuria e Krishtit? Pikëllimi, a ngushtica, a përndjekja, a uria, a të zhveshurit, a rreziku, a shpata?

36 Siç është shkruar: “Për ty po vritemi gjithë ditën; u numëruam si dele për therje.”

37 Por në të gjitha këto gjëra ne jemi më shumë se fitimtarë për hir të atij që na deshi.

38 Sepse unë jam i bindur se as vdekja, as jeta, as engjëjt, as pushtetet, as fuqia dhe as gjërat e tashme as gjërat e ardhshme,

39 as lartësitë, as thellësitë, as ndonjë tjetër krijesë, nuk do të mund të na ndajë nga dashuria e Perëndisë që është në Jezu Krishtin, Zotin tonë.

Romans 8
New International Version

Life Through the Spirit

8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation(A) for those who are in Christ Jesus,(B) 2 because through Christ Jesus(C) the law of the Spirit who gives life(D) has set you[a] free(E) from the law of sin(F) and death. 3 For what the law was powerless(G) to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[b](H) God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh(I) to be a sin offering.[c](J) And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement(K) of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.(L)

5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires;(M) but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.(N) 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death,(O) but the mind governed by the Spirit is life(P) and peace. 7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God;(Q) it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh(R) cannot please God.

9 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh(S) but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.(T) And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,(U) they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you,(V) then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[d] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead(W) is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies(X) because of[e] his Spirit who lives in you.

12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.(Y) 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die;(Z) but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body,(AA) you will live.(AB)

14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God(AC) are the children of God.(AD) 15 The Spirit(AE) you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again;(AF) rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship.[f] And by him we cry, “Abba,[g] Father.”(AG) 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit(AH) that we are God’s children.(AI) 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs(AJ)—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings(AK) in order that we may also share in his glory.(AL)

Present Suffering and Future Glory

18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.(AM) 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God(AN) to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it,(AO) in hope 21 that[h] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay(AP) and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.(AQ)

22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning(AR) as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit,(AS) groan(AT) inwardly as we wait eagerly(AU) for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies.(AV) 24 For in this hope we were saved.(AW) But hope that is seen is no hope at all.(AX) Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.(AY)

26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit(AZ) himself intercedes for us(BA) through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts(BB) knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes(BC) for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

28 And we know that in all things God works for the good(BD) of those who love him, who[i] have been called(BE) according to his purpose.(BF) 29 For those God foreknew(BG) he also predestined(BH) to be conformed to the image of his Son,(BI) that he might be the firstborn(BJ) among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined,(BK) he also called;(BL) those he called, he also justified;(BM) those he justified, he also glorified.(BN)

More Than Conquerors

31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things?(BO) If God is for us,(BP) who can be against us?(BQ) 32 He who did not spare his own Son,(BR) but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge(BS) against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns?(BT) No one. Christ Jesus who died(BU)—more than that, who was raised to life(BV)—is at the right hand of God(BW) and is also interceding for us.(BX) 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?(BY) Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?(BZ) 36 As it is written:

“For your sake we face death all day long;
    we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”[j](CA)

37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors(CB) through him who loved us.(CC) 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[k] neither the present nor the future,(CD) nor any powers,(CE) 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God(CF) that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.(CG)

Free from Indwelling Sin

8 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, (A)who[a] do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For (B)the law of (C)the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from (D)the law of sin and death. 3 For (E)what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, (F)God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who (G)do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5 For (H)those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, (I)the things of the Spirit. 6 For (J)to be [b]carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because (K)the [c]carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, (L)nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. 10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of (M)Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, (N)He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies [d]through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Sonship Through the Spirit

12 (O)Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For (P)if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you (Q)put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For (R)as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For (S)you did not receive the spirit of bondage again (T)to fear, but you received the (U)Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, (V)“Abba,[e] Father.” 16 (W)The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then (X)heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, (Y)if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

From Suffering to Glory

18 For I consider that (Z)the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For (AA)the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For (AB)the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; 21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of [f]corruption into the glorious (AC)liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation (AD)groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have (AE)the firstfruits of the Spirit, (AF)even we ourselves groan (AG)within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the (AH)redemption of our body. 24 For we were saved in this hope, but (AI)hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For (AJ)we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but (AK)the Spirit Himself makes intercession [g]for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 Now (AL)He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints (AM)according to the will of God.

28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those (AN)who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom (AO)He foreknew, (AP)He also predestined (AQ)to be conformed to the image of His Son, (AR)that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also (AS)called; whom He called, these He also (AT)justified; and whom He justified, these He also (AU)glorified.

God’s Everlasting Love

31 What then shall we say to these things? (AV)If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 (AW)He who did not spare His own Son, but (AX)delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? (AY)It is God who justifies. 34 (AZ)Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, (BA)who is even at the right hand of God, (BB)who also makes intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written:

(BC)“For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”

37 (BD)Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor (BE)principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
