< Romans 7 >

1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law, ) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
Nangu mutakumenya, bhana bhasu (kulwo kubha enaika na bhanu bhanu abhabhimenya ebhilagilo), ati ebhilagilo ebhimutunga omunu ungwa ali muanga?
2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to [her] husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of [her] husband.
Kulwo kubha omugasi unu atwaywe abhoelwe ne bhilagilo ku uliya omulume wae anu kabha ali muanga, mbe nawe omulume wae akafwa kabha asuluywe mu bhilagilo bhyo bhutwasi.
3 So then if, while [her] husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
Kwibhyo oli, mu mwanya omulume wae akabha achali muanga, akabha ekae no mulume oundi, kabhilikilwa mulomesi. Mbe nawe akabha omulume wae afuye, asulumuywe ingulu ye bhilagilo, kwibhyo atakubha mulomesi akabha akae no mulume undi.
4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, [even] to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
Kulwejo, bhana bhasu, emwe one mwakolelwe bhafuye mu bhilagilo mu njila yo mubhili gwa Kristo. Jilyati koleleki mubhone okugwatanyisibhwa no undi, ku mwene unu asuluywe okusoka mubhafuye koleleki chitule okumwibhulila Nyamuanga amatwasho.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
kulwo kubha anu chaliga chichali mumubhili, jinamba je chibhibhi jemusibhwe mu bhiungo bhyeswe mu njila ye bhilagilo no kulwibhulila olufu amatwasho.
6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not [in] the oldness of the letter.
Mbe nawe woli chigulilwa okusoka mu bhilagilo. Chiifwilie ilya inu yachiganyishe. koleleki eswe chibhone okukolwa bhuyaya mu Mwoyo na atali mu bhwakala bhwe elyandiko.
7 What shall we say then? [Is] the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
Chaikeki woli? Echilagilo ni chibhibhi? Uli nakatyali. Nitakamenyele chibhibhi, jichilema okumenyekana ku njila ye chilagilo. Kulwo kubha nitakamenyele kuligila echilagilo chichilema okwaika ati, “Wasiga ligila.”
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin [was] dead.
Nawe echibhibhi chabhwene omwanya gwe chilagilo chilya nichileta munda yani bhuli nyami yo kuligila. Kulwo kubha chikabha chitalio chibhibhi echilagilo chifuye.
9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
Anye naliga nili muanga mubhwambilo nolwo atali bhilagilo, mbe nawe chejile chaja echilagilo, ne chibhibhi nichibhona obhuanga, nanye nifwa.
10 And the commandment, which [was ordained] to life, I found [to be] unto death.
Echilagilo chilya chinu chakaletele obhuanga nichiinduka nichibha Lufu kwanye.
11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew [me].
Kulwo kubha echibhibhi chabhwene omwanya mu chilagilo chilya na nichinjingajiga. okulabha ku chilagilo chilya, chanyitile.
12 Wherefore the law [is] holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Kwibhyo ebhilagilo ni bhyelu ne chilagilo ni chelu na yaki one ni ye kisi.
13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
Kwibhyo woli, inu ili ye kisi yaliga lufu kwanye? Yasiga kubha kutyo chimwi. Nawe echibhibhi, koleleki chibhibhi ati ni chibhibhi muno muno okulabha ku bhye kisi, chaletele olufu munda yani. Gunu gwaliga ati koleleki gulabhe ku chilya echilagilo, echibhibhi nichiyongesha okubha chibhibhi muno.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
Kulwo kubha chimenyele ati obhusimuka bhwe chibhibhi ni mu mioyo, mbe nawe anye nili munu wa mumubhili. Nigulilwe emwalo yo bhugaya bhye chibhibhi.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
Kulwo kubha gunu enikola, nitakugumenya abhwelu. Kulwo kubha linu enenda okukola, elyo niliyo nitakukola, na linu linfululusishe, elyo nilyo enikola.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that [it is] good.
Mbe alabha nikalikola linu nitakwenda, enikilishanya ne bhilagilo ati ebhilagilo ni bhya kisi.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
Mbe nawe woli gutali mwoyo gwani gunu ogukola ago, nawe ni chibhibhi chilya chinu chikae Munda yani.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh, ) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find not.
Kulwo kubha nimenyele ati munda Yani, ati munda yo mubhili gwani, gutakwinyanjamo musango gwe kisi. Kulwo kubha inamba ya linu Lili lye kisi Lili munda yani, mbe nawe nitakulikola.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
Kulwo kubha Lilya elye kisi linu nendele nitakola, nawe Lilya libhibhi linu nitakwenda kelyo niliyo enikola.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
Labha woli enikola Lilya nitakwenda, mbe atali anye omwene-la nawe ni chilya echibhibhi chinu chikae Munda Yani.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
Nimenyele, lindi, chilimo echilagilo munda Yani echo kwenda okukola linu Lili lye kisi, mbe nawe obhubhibhi chimwi bhuli munda Yani.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
Kulwo kubha inichikondelelwa echilagilo cha Nyamuanga kwa bhumunu bhwa Munda.
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
Nawe enilola echilagilo chinu chitasikene mu bhiungo bhyo mubhili gwani. eiletwa lilemo ingulu ye chilagilo chiyaya mu bhwenge bhwani. Einkola anye kubha mugaya we bhilagilo bhye chibhibhi chinu chili mu bhiungo bhyo mubhili gwani.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
Anye nili munu wo bhusulubhae! Niga unu kajokunkisha no mubhili gunu ogwo lufu?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Mbe nawe isime ku Nyamuanga ku Yesu Kristo Latabhugenyi weswe! Kwibhyo oli. Anye omwene kwo bhwenge bhwani enichikolela echilagilo cha Nyamuanga. Nawe, kwo mubhili enichikolela echilagilo che chibhibhi.
