Romans 7
1 Or do you not know, brothers (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a person for as long as he lives?
he bhrAtR^igaNa vyavasthAvidaH prati mamedaM nivedanaM| vidhiH kevalaM yAvajjIvaM mAnavoparyyadhipatitvaM karotIti yUyaM kiM na jAnItha?
2 For the 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 concerning the husband.
yAvatkAlaM pati rjIvati tAvatkAlam UDhA bhAryyA vyavasthayA tasmin baddhA tiShThati kintu yadi pati rmriyate tarhi sA nArI patyu rvyavasthAto muchyate|
3 So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she is called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is not an adulteress, though she is joined to another man.
etatkAraNAt patyurjIvanakAle nArI yadyanyaM puruShaM vivahati tarhi sA vyabhichAriNI bhavati kintu yadi sa pati rmriyate tarhi sA tasyA vyavasthAyA muktA satI puruShAntareNa vyUDhApi vyabhichAriNI na bhavati|
4 Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Meshikha, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we may bear fruit to God.
he mama bhrAtR^igaNa, IshvaranimittaM yadasmAkaM phalaM jAyate tadarthaM shmashAnAd utthApitena puruSheNa saha yuShmAkaM vivAho yad bhavet tadarthaM khrIShTasya sharIreNa yUyaM vyavasthAM prati mR^itavantaH|
5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law, worked in our members to bring forth fruit for death.
yato. asmAkaM shArIrikAcharaNasamaye maraNanimittaM phalam utpAdayituM vyavasthayA dUShitaH pApAbhilASho. asmAkam a NgeShu jIvan AsIt|
6 But now we have been released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in newness of the Rukha, and not in oldness of the letter.
kintu tadA yasyA vyavasthAyA vashe Asmahi sAmprataM tAM prati mR^itatvAd vayaM tasyA adhInatvAt muktA iti hetorIshvaro. asmAbhiH purAtanalikhitAnusArAt na sevitavyaH kintu navInasvabhAvenaiva sevitavyaH
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Absolutely not. However, I would not have known sin, except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness, unless the law had said, "You shall not covet."
tarhi vayaM kiM brUmaH? vyavasthA kiM pApajanikA bhavati? netthaM bhavatu| vyavasthAm avidyamAnAyAM pApaM kim ityahaM nAvedaM; ki ncha lobhaM mA kArShIriti ched vyavasthAgranthe likhitaM nAbhaviShyat tarhi lobhaH kimbhUtastadahaM nAj nAsyaM|
8 But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
kintu vyavasthayA pApaM ChidraM prApyAsmAkam antaH sarvvavidhaM kutsitAbhilASham ajanayat; yato vyavasthAyAm avidyamAnAyAM pApaM mR^itaM|
9 I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin became alive, and I died.
aparaM pUrvvaM vyavasthAyAm avidyamAnAyAm aham ajIvaM tataH param Aj nAyAm upasthitAyAm pApam ajIvat tadAham amriye|
10 The commandment, which was for life, this I found to be for death;
itthaM sati jIvananimittA yAj nA sA mama mR^ityujanikAbhavat|
11 for sin, taking the opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
yataH pApaM ChidraM prApya vyavasthitAdeshena mAM va nchayitvA tena mAm ahan|
12 Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good.
ataeva vyavasthA pavitrA, Adeshashcha pavitro nyAyyo hitakArI cha bhavati|
13 Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Absolutely not. But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, by working death to me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceeding sinful.
tarhi yat svayaM hitakR^it tat kiM mama mR^ityujanakam abhavat? netthaM bhavatu; kintu pApaM yat pAtakamiva prakAshate tathA nideshena pApaM yadatIva pAtakamiva prakAshate tadarthaM hitopAyena mama maraNam ajanayat|
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
vyavasthAtmabodhiketi vayaM jAnImaH kintvahaM shArIratAchArI pApasya krItaki Nkaro vidye|
15 For I do not know what I am doing. For I do not practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.
yato yat karmma karomi tat mama mano. abhimataM nahi; aparaM yan mama mano. abhimataM tanna karomi kintu yad R^itIye tat karomi|
16 But if I do what I do not want to do, I agree with the law that it is good.
tathAtve yan mamAnabhimataM tad yadi karomi tarhi vyavasthA sUttameti svIkaromi|
17 So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
ataeva samprati tat karmma mayA kriyata iti nahi kintu mama sharIrasthena pApenaiva kriyate|
18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For the desire is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.
yato mayi, arthato mama sharIre, kimapyuttamaM na vasati, etad ahaM jAnAmi; mamechChukatAyAM tiShThantyAmapyaham uttamakarmmasAdhane samartho na bhavAmi|
19 For the good which I desire, I do not do; but the evil which I do not desire, that I practice.
yato yAmuttamAM kriyAM karttumahaM vA nChAmi tAM na karomi kintu yat kutsitaM karmma karttum anichChuko. asmi tadeva karomi|
20 But if what I do not desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
ataeva yadyat karmma karttuM mamechChA na bhavati tad yadi karomi tarhi tat mayA na kriyate, mamAntarvarttinA pApenaiva kriyate|
21 I find then the law, that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.
bhadraM karttum ichChukaM mAM yo. abhadraM karttuM pravarttayati tAdR^ishaM svabhAvamekaM mayi pashyAmi|
22 For I delight in God's law in my inner being,
aham AntarikapuruSheNeshvaravyavasthAyAM santuShTa Ase;
23 but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
kintu tadviparItaM yudhyantaM tadanyamekaM svabhAvaM madIyA NgasthitaM prapashyAmi, sa madIyA NgasthitapApasvabhAvasyAyattaM mAM karttuM cheShTate|
24 What a wretched man I am. Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
hA hA yo. ahaM durbhAgyo manujastaM mAm etasmAn mR^itAchCharIrAt ko nistArayiShyati?
25 Thanks be to God through Yeshua Meshikha, our Lord. So then with the mind, I myself serve God's law, but with the flesh, the sin's law.
asmAkaM prabhuNA yIshukhrIShTena nistArayitAram IshvaraM dhanyaM vadAmi| ataeva sharIreNa pApavyavasthAyA manasA tu IshvaravyavasthAyAH sevanaM karomi|
