Romans 7
1 Do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?
Aje semmenye, mwaholo bhane (hwa habhe eyanga na bhatu bhabhaimenye edajizyo), aje edajizyo ehatabhala omtu pali mwomi?
2 For instance, a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is released from the law of marriage.
Hwa huje oshe yayegwilwe afungwilwe nedajizyo hwola olume wakwe pali mwomi nantele huje olume nkawafwa abhabhe abhehwilwe wene afume hundajizyo eye ndowa.
3 So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress, even if she marries another man.
Eshi basi, husiku olumu wakwe nkali sadela, huje adela no lume owenje tiigahuni nkashe. Je olume wakwe afwiye aliwene hundajizyo, esho sagabhabhe huni nkashele adela nalume owenje.
4 Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
Hwelyo, mwaholo bhane, amwe eshi mwabhombwilwe bhafwe bhe ndajizyo hwidala elye mbele gwa Kilisiti. Eli eshi aje tiuganisiwe noweje hwamwene yuoyu yali azyosyelwe afume hwabhafwe aje tiwezye hupapile Ongolobhe amadodolo.
5 For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.
Huje patali tili shi bele, enyonyo ezye mbibhi zya damuziwe hu viungo vyetu hwidala elyedajizyo naipapile efwa amadondolo.
6 But now, having died to what bound us, we have been released from the law, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
Nantele ehi tipinyilwe afume hudajizyo. Tiifweleye ela yayli etikhomile. Aje ate tipate atumishe hu hali empya ye Fijili, nate huhaliye made ye nsimbo.
7 What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of coveting if the law had not said, “Do not covet.”
Tiyajewele eshi? Endajizyo aje mbibhi? Haa. Hata eshi, senezagai manye embibhi, hangasaya hali hwidala lye ndajizyo. Aje saganaheza gama asangwe aje ndajizyo hangasaga eyanjile, “Osinyonye.”
8 But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
Huje embibhi yapate nafwasi hwela eemuli nalete muhati mulini shila aina eyensongwo. Huje embibhi pasagapali endajizyo efwiye.
9 Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
Nane ehali mwomi epo olwahwande bila ndajizyo, eshi pehenza ela eamuli embibhi yapete owomi, nane nafwa.
10 So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
Ela eamuli yayali elete owomi yagalushe abhe fwa hulini.
11 For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
Hwa huje embibhi yapete enufwa si hwela eamuli nantele yahopeye. Ashilile hwela eamuli, yangojile.
12 So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
Eshi edajizyo ntufye, yope ela eamuli ntufye, yelyoli na nyinza.
13 Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
Eshi basi elayeli nyinza yalifwa hulini ane. Eganjebhe sho kabisa huje embibhi yaloleshe abhe mbibhi hani ajedele hwela enyinza ehaletile efwa muhati mlini. Eneyali aje huje ajendele hwela eamuli embibhi zyonje lele abhe mbibhi tee.
14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
Hwa huje timenye yahuje endejizyo shikulilo shakwe shahumwoyo eshiane endimtu webele. Enkaziwe pasi patumwe owembibhi.
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.
Aje lye bhomba saga, edimanya shinza. Aje lila lyedigene abhombe saga edibhomba nalila lyendivitwa lyebhomba.
16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I admit that the law is good.
Aje shi nkembalibhombe lila lyasaga endigene ehwetehana nedajizyo eya je edajizyo nyinza.
17 In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Huje eshi saga nene humwoyo gwane nebhomba elyo, huje yoyela embibhi yekhala muhati mlini.
18 I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
Hwa huje emenye aje muhati mlini aje muhati mbele, gwana sezikhala enongwa. Enyenza hwa hubhe enyonyo eyeliza eli muhati mulini, aje sebhomba.
19 For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do.
Hwa huje lila elinza lyendigene saga edibhamba huje lila ibhibhi lyasaga edigene lyebhomba.
20 And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Eshi khashele ebhomba lila lyasaga edigene saga nene binafusi nebhomba huje yayela embibhi yeli muhati mulini.
21 So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
Emenye, nantele ehweli ekanu ni muhati mulini ya hwanze abhombe lyalili linza eshi embibhi lyoli zihweli muhati mulini.
22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law.
Hwa huje ejisongwelwe edajizyo yo Ngolobhe hu utu owa muhati.
23 But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.
Eshi ejilola ekanuni yeli payo huviungo vyavili mble gwane. Ekho mana ibho huzidi ya kanuni empya hujele zyane. Embomba ane abhekhatwe hukanuniye mbibhi mbibhi yeli huviungo vyavili mubele.
24 What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?
Ane edi mtu we sago wenu gadafyole no mbele oguuogwe fwe?
25 Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
Eshi salifi hwa Ngolobhe owa Yesu Kilisiti Ogosi wetu! Aje eshi ane nene hunjele zyune enjitumishila endajizyo ya Ngolobhe. Aje hubele ejitumishila kanuni yenzambe.
