Romans 7
1 Or are ye ignorant, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over the man for as long a time as he lives?
Achalongo achinjangu, sambano ngukunguluka ni ŵandu ŵakugamanyilila Malajisyo. Ngankumanyilila kuti lilajisyo likuntawala mundu aŵaga jwanjumi?
2 For the woman under authority to the living husband has been bound by law, but if the husband should die, she has been released from the law of the husband.
Tujile jwankongwe jwalombekwe ataŵikwe ni lilajisyo mu utame wakwe ni ŵankwakwe, ŵankwakwe aŵaga jwanjumi. Nambo ajasikaga ŵankwakwe, jwankongwe jo chaaŵe jwangataŵikwa ni lilajisyo lya ulombela.
3 So then, of the living husband, she will be called an adulteress if she becomes to another man, but if the husband should die, she is free from the law, for her not to be an adulteress having become to another man.
Nipele, iŵaga chalombekwe ni jwannume jwine ŵankwakwe ali jwanjumi, jwankongwe jo chaŵilanjikwe jwa chikululu. Nambo ajasikaga ŵankwakwe, jwankongwe jo nganataŵikwa ni malajisyo, ni iŵaga akulombekwa ni jwannume jwine, jwelejo nganaŵa jwa chikululu.
4 Therefore, my brothers, ye also became dead to the law through the body of Christ in order for ye to become to another, to him who was raised from the dead, so that we would bear fruit to God.
Achalongo achinjangu, iyoyo peyo ŵanyamwe nganimma paasi pa Malajisyo, pakuŵa mwalumbikene ni chiilu cha Kilisito ni malumbo gakwe gali yele, Kilisito paŵawile ni ŵanyamwe mwawile pamo nawo. Sambano nli ŵakwe ŵelewo ŵaŵasyuchile kuti mwatumichile chambone Akunnungu.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins were working in our body-parts (through the law) in order to bear fruit to death.
Pakuŵa patwatemi nkulongoswa ni tama syangalumbana sitwapagwile nasyo, tama sisyaliji nkuchiswa ni malajisyo, syapanganyisye masengo mu iilu yetu ni yose itwatendaga yamalile mu chiwa.
6 But now we have been released from the law, having died to what we were held, so as for us to serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of a document.
Nambo sambano tulechelelwe kutyochela mu Malajisyo gagatutaŵile nti ŵakutaŵikwa, pakuŵa twawile pamo ni Kilisito. Sambano tukwatumichila Akunnungu mu umi wa sambano wa Mbumu, ngaŵa nti kalakala kwa Malajisyo gagalembekwe.
7 What will we say then? The law is sin? May it not happen! Yet I did not know sin except through law. For likewise I would not have known lust, if the law did not say, Thou shall not covet.
Nipele, ana tujileje uli? Malajisyo gali sambi? Ngwamba! Nambo pangali Malajisyo ngangasimanyilile sambi sili chichi. Pakuŵa ngangaimanye kuti kulajila kuli kuleŵa, iŵaga Malajisyo ngagakasale, “Kasinlajila.”
8 But sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me every evil desire, for apart from law sin is dead.
Nambo kutyochela ni makanyo go, sambi syapatile lipesa lya kwimusya tama jangalumbana jajili mwa uneji. Pakuŵa pangali Malajisyo sambi sili chindu chewe.
9 And I was alive once apart from law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
Kundanda ko naliji jwanjumi pangagamanyilila Malajisyo, nambo pagaiche makanyo, sambi syajenele mu utame wangu, noneji naliji mpela jwammwe.
10 And I found to me, the commandment being for life, this is for death.
Ni naiweni kuti makanyo gagasachilwe kunyigalila umi, kwaune ganyigalile chiwa.
11 For sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.
Pakuŵa sambi syapatile lipesa kwa litala lya makanyo galagala, syanambwisye ni kumulaga.
12 So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
Nipele Malajisyo gali gamaswela ni makanyo nombe nago gali gamaswela ni gakwanonyelesya Akunnungu ni gali gambone.
13 Has therefore what is good become death to me? May it not happen! Instead, it is sin, so that it might be revealed, sin working death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful to extreme.
Ana ni kuti chelecho chichaliji chambone chinyichisye chiwa? Ngwamba. Nambo sambi, pakuti siwoneche kuti sili sambi sisyene, sitesile achila chambone chinyichisye chiwa. Kwayele sambi kwa litala lya Makanyo syalosisye pangasisika sambi syasitite kuŵa syangalumbana kwannope.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.
Tukumanyilila kuti Malajisyo gali nkati indu ya chimbumu ni une nganiŵa mundu jwachimbumu, jusumichikwe nti kapolo mu sambi.
15 For I do not understand what I do, for I do not do this that I want, but what I hate, this I do.
Pakuŵa nganguchimanyilila chinguchitenda, ligongo achila chinguchisaka nganguchitenda nambo achila chinganguchisaka kuchitenda chelecho ni chinguchitenda.
16 But if I do this that I do not want, I agree with the law that it is good.
Nipele, iŵaga nguchitenda achila chinganguchisaka kuchitenda, ngwitichisya kuti Malajisyo gala gali gambone.
17 But now I no longer perform it, but the sin dwelling in me.
Nipele nganima une nansyene junguchitenda chelecho, nambo asila sambi syasikutama mwangu une.
18 For I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, for to will is present in me, but to do the good, I find not.
Ngumanyilila kuti nkati mwangu une, malumbo gakwe mu chiilu changu cha sambi ngachikutaama chindu chambone. Ligongo namuno ngusaka kuchitenda chambone ngangukombola.
19 For I do not do good that I want, instead, wrong that I do not want, this I do.
Pakuŵa chambone chinguchisaka nganguchitenda, nambo changalumbana chinganguchisaka kuchitenda, chelecho ni chinguchitenda.
20 But if I do this that I do not want, I no longer perform it, but sin dwelling in me.
Nipele, iŵaga nguchitenda achila chinganguchisaka kuchitenda, nganima une junguchitenda, nambo asila sambi syasikutama nkati mwangu ni syasikuchitenda chelecho.
21 Consequently I find the law in my wanting to do good, that evil is present in me.
Nipele, nachiweni chindu chi chikupanganya masengo nkati mwangu, pakuŵa pangusaka kuchitendekanya chambone, kutenda ungalumbana ni unguusagula.
22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inner man,
Pakuŵa mu ntima mwangu ngugasengwela Malajisyo ga Akunnungu.
23 but I see a different law in my body-parts, warring against the law of my mind, and taking me captive in the law of sin, which is in my body-parts.
Nambo ngugaona malajisyo gane mu chiilu changu gachimenyanaga ni ng'anisyo syangu. Ni gelego gakundendekasya meje jwantaŵikwe ni malajisyo ga sambi syasikupanganya masengo mu chiilu mwangu.
24 I am a wretched man. Who will rescue me out of the body of this death?
Kulaga kwangu une! Ana ŵaani ŵachangulupusye ndyoche mu chiilu chachikunongosya mu chiwa?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, I of myself in the mind indeed serve a law of God, but in the flesh a law of sin.
Ngwatogolela Akunnungu ŵakuitendekanya yeleyo kwa litala lya Ambuje ŵetu Che Yesu Kilisito. Yeleyi ni yandi une, kwa lunda lwangu ngugatumichila malajisyo ga Akunnungu, nambo kwa tama syangu syangalumbana sya chiilu simbagwile nasyo, ngugatumichila malajisyo ga sambi.
