Walang sinuman ang napakasama na 'di na siya maliligtas. Explanation: Literal translation is kind of awkward. Communicative translation is the approach I would usually use for such phrases, but, still, you have to keep the meaning of the source language. |

Walang sinuman ang napakasama na 'di na siya maililigtas Explanation: This sentence emphasizes the saving power and grace of Jesus Christ -- that no matter how wicked or good we are, Jesus can save us; we all need the power and grace of salvation through Jesus. Here are a few reference verses in the Bible: a) For those who are so good: Romans 3: 9,10 - What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin. As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one". Ephesians 2:8-9 - “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” b) For those who are wicked: Isaiah 1:18 - “Come now, and let’s reason together,” says Yahweh: “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. 2 Corinthians 5:21 - “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” |
