8:31 既是這樣、還有甚麼說的呢． 神若幫助我們、誰能敵擋我們呢。
What then shall we say to
these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
8:32 神既不愛惜自己的兒子為我們眾人捨了、豈不也把萬物和他一同白白的賜給我們麼。
He who did not spare His own Son, but
delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him
freely give us all things?
8:33 誰能控告 神所揀選的人呢．有 神稱他們為義了。
Who will bring a charge
against God's elect? God is the one who justifies;
8:34
誰能定他們的罪呢．有基督耶穌已經死了、而且從死裡復活、現今在 神的右邊、也替我們祈求。
who is the one who
condemns? Christ
Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the
right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.
8:35 誰能使我們與基督的愛隔絕呢．難道是患難麼、是困苦麼、是逼迫麼、是飢餓麼、是赤身露體麼、是危險麼、是刀劍麼。
Who will separate us from the love of
Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine,
or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
8:36 如經上所記、『我們為你的緣故、終日被殺．人看我們如將宰的羊。』
Just as it is written, "FOR YOUR
SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG; WE WERE CONSIDERED
AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED."
8:37 然而靠著愛我們的主、在這一切的事上、已經得勝有餘了。
But in all these things we
overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
8:38 因為我深信無論是死、是生、是天使、是掌權的、是有能的、是現在的事、是將來的事、
For I am convinced that neither
death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things
present, nor things to come, nor powers,
8:39 是高處的、是低處的、是別的受造之物、都不能叫我們與 神的愛隔絕．這愛是在我們的主基督耶穌裡的。
nor height, nor depth, nor any other
created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
