Ŵaloma 6
1 Nipele, sambano tujileje uli? Ana tujendelechele kusigala mu sambi kuti umbone wa Akunnungu upunde?
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 Ngwamba! Patukusala nkati machili ga sambi syasili mwetuwe, uweji tuli mpela ŵatuwile, ana tutukombole uli kutama sooni mu sambi?
By no means: how shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Pakuŵa nkumanyilila kuti twabatiswe nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Che Yesu, ni kwa litala lya ubatiso twalumbikene nawo mu chiwa chao.
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ, were baptized into his death?
4 Patwabatisilwe twalumbikene ni chiwa chao ni kusikwa pamo nawo, kuti mpela iŵatite pakusyuswa Kilisito mu ŵawe kwa litala lya ukulu wa Atati, iyoyo peyo noweji tukombole kutama mu umi wa sambano.
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 Pakuŵa iŵaga uweji twalumbikene ni Kilisito kwa chiwa chao, iyoyo peyo tutulumbikane nawo kwa kusyuswa mpela ŵelewo.
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:
6 Tukumanyilila kuti wende wetu wa kalakala waŵambikwe pa nsalaba pamo ni Kilisito kuti chiilu cha sambi chijonasiche, tukasitumichila sooni sambi.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin may be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 Pakuŵa mundu jwawile ngakuŵa sooni paasi pa machili ga sambi syasikupanganya masengo nkati mwao.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Nambo iŵaga tuwile pamo ni Kilisito, tukukulupilila kuti chitutame pamo nawo.
Now if we are dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Pakuŵa tukumanyilila kuti Kilisito asyuchile, nombewo ngaawa sooni, pakuŵa chiwa ngachatawala sooni.
Knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10 Pakuŵa ŵawile kamo pe kwa ligongo lya sambi, ngaawa sooni, nambo kwakutama kwakwe, sambano akutama nkulumbikana ni Akunnungu.
For in that he died, he died to sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth to God.
11 Iyoyo peyo ni ŵanyamwe nombe nliŵalanje ŵawe nkati ngani ja machili ga sambi ni kutama pamo ni Akunnungu nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu.
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
12 Nipele, nkasileka sooni sambi sitawale mu iilu yenu ya kuwa, kuti nkasijitichisya tama sya pachiilu.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts of it.
13 Kasinyikoposya iŵalo yenu nachiŵamuno chimo kwa ligongo lya kutenda sambi. Nambo nlityosye mwachinsyene kwa Akunnungu nti ŵandu ŵasyuswe, ni nnyityosye iŵalo yenu itumiche kwa kupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness to God:
14 Sambi sinantawale sooni, ligongo nganimma paasi pa malajisyo nambo nkulongoswa ni ntuuka wa Akunnungu.
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15 Nipele, tujileje uli? Ana tujendelechele kutenda sambi pakuŵa nganituŵa paasi pa malajisyo, nambo tukulongoswa ni ntuuka wa umbone wa Akunnungu? Ngwamba!
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? By no means.
16 Nkumanyililanga kuti mwalityosyaga mwachinsyene mpela achikapolo kwa kunjitichisya mundu jwine, isyene nkuŵa achikapolo ŵa mundu jo. Mwaŵaga achikapolo ŵa sambi, mbesi jakwe chiwa ni mwaŵaga achikapolo ŵa kwajitichisya Akunnungu, mbesi jakwe nkutendekwa kuŵa ŵambone paujo pao.
Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants in obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 Nambo ngwatogolela Akunnungu, namose mwaliji achikapolo ŵa sambi kalakala ko, nambo sambano mpochele kwa ntima wose usyene wauli mmajiganyo gimpochele.
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin; but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
18 Mmombochekwe kutyochela mu ukapolo wa sambi, ni sambano mmele achikapolo ŵakupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19 Nguŵecheta kwa maloŵe ga moŵa gose pakuŵa ngankukombola kumanyilila. Pakuŵa kalakala ko mwalityosisye iilu yenu mme achikapolo ŵa usakwa ni ugongomalo. Iyoyo peyo sambano nlityosye mwachinsyene mme achikapolo ŵakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu kuti nkombole kuswejeswa.
I speak after the manner of men, because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity, to ([work] ) iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness, to ([work] ) holiness.
20 Pamwalinji achikapolo ŵa sambi, nganintaŵikwa kupanganya indu yambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 Ana mwapochile chichi pa moŵa go pamwapangenye indu yankuiwona kuti ili indu ya soni sambano jino? Pakuŵa kumbesi kwa indu yo kuli chiwa.
What fruit had ye then in those things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death.
22 Nambo sambano mmasile kuwombolwa mu ukapolo wa sambi ni kutendekwa achikapolo ŵa Akunnungu. Chinkupoka sambano chili kutama mu kuswejeswa kwakukwikanawo umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
But now being made free from sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
