Romans 6
1 What may we say, then? are we to go on in sin so that there may be more grace?
Twambe buti? Tunochinkilila anembo na akubisya kuti luzyalo lukayindilile kuvula?
2 In no way. How may we, who are dead to sin, be living in it any longer?
Takwelede kuba obo pe. Iswe nitwakafwa kuchibi, tunochikonzya buti kuchinopona kulinchicho.
3 Or are you without the knowledge that all we who had baptism into Christ Jesus, had baptism into his death?
Tamuzi na kuti mbuli bingi mbubakabbabbatizigwa muliKkilisto Jesu bakabbabbatisigwa mulufulwakwe.
4 We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life.
Twakavwikwa, alimwi, anguwe kwinda mulubbabbatizyo amulufu. Ezi zyakachitika nkambo kakuti Kkilisto wakabusigwa kuzwa kubafu mubulemu bwawisi, kuti aswebo tweende mubumi bupya.
5 For, if we have been made like him in his death, we will, in the same way, be like him in his coming to life again;
Kuti twaba abujatane muchikozyano chalufu lwakwe, aboobo tatukoyoba abujatane mububuke bwakwe kubafu.
6 Being conscious that our old man was put to death on the cross with him, so that the body of sin might be put away, and we might no longer be servants to sin.
Tulizi ezi, kuti muntu wesu mukulukulu wakabambulwa anguwe kuti mubiliwazibi ukonzye kulobesegwa. Ezi zyakachitika kuti tutachibi bazike bachibi.
7 Because he who is dead is free from sin.
Oyoo wakafwa wakambwa kululama kumulandu wachibi.
8 But if we are dead with Christ, we have faith that we will be living with him;
Pesi kuti twakafwa aKkilisito, tulasyoma kuti tuyokkala antomwe anguwe.
9 Having knowledge that because Christ has come back from the dead, he will never again go down to the dead; death has no more power over him.
Tulizi kuti Kkilisito mbakabusigwa kuzwa kubafu, takonzyi kufwa lubo pe; lufu taluchikwe bwami pe alinguwe.
10 For his death was a death to sin, but his life now is a life which he is living to God.
Nkabela mukujatikizya mulufu ndwakwafwa kamwi kwalyoonse. Nekuba boobo, buumi mbwapona uponena Leza.
11 Even so see yourselves as dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus.
Munzila ikozyene, anywebo mweelede kulibweza mbuli bafwide kuchibi, pesi baponede kuli Leza muliJesu Kkilisito.
12 For this cause do not let sin be ruling in your body which is under the power of death, so that you give way to its desires;
Aboobo mutalekeli chibi kuti chimwendelezye mumibili yanu ifwika mutakasiki nkumulemeka zisusi zyanyama.
13 And do not give your bodies to sin as the instruments of wrongdoing, but give yourselves to God, as those who are living from the dead, and your bodies as instruments of righteousness to God.
Mutaabili zizo zyaanu kuchibi, kuti zibe zibelesyo zyakuchita bubi. Pele amulitondezye kuli Leza mbuli aabo bakeetwa kuzwa kulufu kuya kubuumu, amutondezye zizo zyanu kuliLeza mbuli zibelesyo zyakuchitya bululami.
14 For sin may not have rule over you: because you are not under law, but under grace.
Mutazumini chibi kuti chimwendelezye. Nkambo nywe tamuli munsi amulawu pe, pesi munsi aluzyalo.
15 What then? are we to go on in sin because we are not under law but under grace? Let it not be so.
Twambe buti lino? Tulakonzya kubisya na nkambo tatulimunsi amulawu, pesi munsi aluzyalo? Kutakabi boobo pe.
16 Are you not conscious that you are the servants of him to whom you give yourselves to do his desire? if to sin, the end being death, or if to do the desire of God, the end being righteousness.
Sa tamuzi na kuti naa mwalitondezya mbuli bazike mulibazike kuliyooyo ngomulemeka? Mukonzya kuba bazike kuchibi, chitola kulufu, naanka bazike kululemeko lutola kubululami.
17 But praise be to God that though you were the servants of sin, you have now given yourselves freely to that form of teaching under which you were placed;
Pesi kupa kulumba kuliLeza! Nkambo mwakalibazike bachibi, pesi mwakalemeka kuzwa kumyoyo inzila yanjisyo eyo njimwakapegwa.
18 And being made free from sin you have been made the servants of righteousness.
Mwakangununwa kuzwa kuchibi akuchitwa balanda mubululami.
19 I am using words in the way of men, because your flesh is feeble: as you gave your bodies as servants to what is unclean, and to evil to do evil, so now give them as servants to righteousness to do what is holy.
Ndambula mbuli muntu nkambo kabukompami bwanyama zyanu. Mbuli mbumwaka tondezya zizo zyanu mbulibazike kubusofwazi akubusendami kachizyala kubusendami kwindilililede, munzila imwi biyo, lino mutondezye zizo zyanu mbuli bazike kubululami akukusalazigwa.
20 When you were servants of sin you were free from righteousness.
Nkambo nimwakachili bazike bachibi, mwakalangunukide kuzwa kubululami.
21 What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death.
Kuchindi echo njili michelo eyo njimwakali ayo kuzintu zikonzya kumufwisya bweeme? Nkambo mamanino azintu eezi ndufu.
