< Romans 6 >
1 Someone might [RHQ] say [in reply to what I have written] that [since God acted kindly toward us] in a way we did not deserve [because we sinned], perhaps we should continue to sin in order that he may continue to act even more kindly toward us [and keep on forgiving us]! [RHQ]
ಪ್ರಭೂತರೂಪೇಣ ಯದ್ ಅನುಗ್ರಹಃ ಪ್ರಕಾಶತೇ ತದರ್ಥಂ ಪಾಪೇ ತಿಷ್ಠಾಮ ಇತಿ ವಾಕ್ಯಂ ಕಿಂ ವಯಂ ವದಿಷ್ಯಾಮಃ? ತನ್ನ ಭವತು|
2 [I would reply], No, certainly not! We [ought to consider that] our sinful desires [MET] [cannot make us do what they want us to do], [just like we cannot make] a corpse do what we want it to do. So it is not right that we continue to sin! [RHQ]
ಪಾಪಂ ಪ್ರತಿ ಮೃತಾ ವಯಂ ಪುನಸ್ತಸ್ಮಿನ್ ಕಥಮ್ ಜೀವಿಷ್ಯಾಮಃ?
3 When we were baptized {[asked someone to] baptize us} in order to show that we have a relationship with (OR, are united to) Jesus Christ, our [being baptized was to declare that it was as though] we died with Christ. ([I want] you to remember that!/Do you not know that?) [RHQ]
ವಯಂ ಯಾವನ್ತೋ ಲೋಕಾ ಯೀಶುಖ್ರೀಷ್ಟೇ ಮಜ್ಜಿತಾ ಅಭವಾಮ ತಾವನ್ತ ಏವ ತಸ್ಯ ಮರಣೇ ಮಜ್ಜಿತಾ ಇತಿ ಕಿಂ ಯೂಯಂ ನ ಜಾನೀಥ?
4 So, when we were baptized {someone baptized us}, [it was as though] we were buried with Christ. [We were baptized] in order to indicate that [we would not let our sinful desires make us do what they want us to do, just like people cannot make] a corpse [do what they want it to] do [MET]. We [were baptized] to [signify that we would] continually conduct our lives in a new way, just like Christ was caused to live again in a new way by the great [power] of [God his] Father.
ತತೋ ಯಥಾ ಪಿತುಃ ಪರಾಕ್ರಮೇಣ ಶ್ಮಶಾನಾತ್ ಖ್ರೀಷ್ಟ ಉತ್ಥಾಪಿತಸ್ತಥಾ ವಯಮಪಿ ಯತ್ ನೂತನಜೀವಿನ ಇವಾಚರಾಮಸ್ತದರ್ಥಂ ಮಜ್ಜನೇನ ತೇನ ಸಾರ್ದ್ಧಂ ಮೃತ್ಯುರೂಪೇ ಶ್ಮಶಾನೇ ಸಂಸ್ಥಾಪಿತಾಃ|
5 Because of our close relationship with Christ, we have [separated ourselves from the former way in which we conducted our lives], just like he [was separated from his physical life when he] died [MET]. But God will also certainly [enable us to live in a new way, just like he] enabled Christ to live again.

6 We must keep remembering that when Christ died on the cross [MET], [it was as though] our sinful nature [died with him. It has] lost its power to make us do what it wants us to do [MET]. That happened in order that we would not do the sinful [things that our bodies] [MET], which desire to sin, want us to do, and in order that we would no longer have to sin [MET], as slaves [have to do what their masters want].

7 [We are, as it were, freed] {[free]} [from] sinful [desires] [MET] [controlling us, just like] those who have died are free [from anything controlling them].

8 Since [it is as though] we died with Christ, we believe that we will continue to live with him.

9 We know that since [God] enabled Christ to live again after he died, Christ will never die again. Nothing will ever be able to make him die again [PRS].
ಯತಃ ಶ್ಮಶಾನಾದ್ ಉತ್ಥಾಪಿತಃ ಖ್ರೀಷ್ಟೋ ಪುನ ರ್ನ ಮ್ರಿಯತ ಇತಿ ವಯಂ ಜಾನೀಮಃ| ತಸ್ಮಿನ್ ಕೋಪ್ಯಧಿಕಾರೋ ಮೃತ್ಯೋ ರ್ನಾಸ್ತಿ|
10 When he died, he died once for [people] who had sinned, and he will never die again; but in regard to his living [again now], he lives in order to [serve/honor] God.
ಅಪರಞ್ಚ ಸ ಯದ್ ಅಮ್ರಿಯತ ತೇನೈಕದಾ ಪಾಪಮ್ ಉದ್ದಿಶ್ಯಾಮ್ರಿಯತ, ಯಚ್ಚ ಜೀವತಿ ತೇನೇಶ್ವರಮ್ ಉದ್ದಿಶ್ಯ ಜೀವತಿ;
11 Similarly, you must consider that [it is as though] you have become [unable to do what your] sinful [desires] [MET] want, as a corpse [is not able to do what anyone wants it to do]. You must also consider that because of your relationship to Christ Jesus you are living [in a new way] in order to [serve/honor] God.

12 So, do not let the [desire to] sin [PRS] control your bodies [MET] with the result that you do the sinful things that you desire to do. [Remember that] your bodies will surely die, [but your spirits will never die].
ಅಪರಞ್ಚ ಕುತ್ಸಿತಾಭಿಲಾಷಾನ್ ಪೂರಯಿತುಂ ಯುಷ್ಮಾಕಂ ಮರ್ತ್ಯದೇಹೇಷು ಪಾಪಮ್ ಆಧಿಪತ್ಯಂ ನ ಕರೋತು|
13 Do not let any of your body parts do wicked things, as [you did] [MET] [when you were spiritually] dead. Instead, present yourselves to God as people who are alive [spiritually]. Present all your body parts to God, [to allow him] to use them to [do] righteous things.

14 Do not let a [desire to] sin control you [PRS]. The laws [that God gave Moses] did not enable you [to stop sinning]. But [now] God controls you and kindly helps you [not to sin].
ಯುಷ್ಮಾಕಮ್ ಉಪರಿ ಪಾಪಸ್ಯಾಧಿಪತ್ಯಂ ಪುನ ರ್ನ ಭವಿಷ್ಯತಿ, ಯಸ್ಮಾದ್ ಯೂಯಂ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥಾಯಾ ಅನಾಯತ್ತಾ ಅನುಗ್ರಹಸ್ಯ ಚಾಯತ್ತಾ ಅಭವತ|
15 [I suppose that certain people might think about what I have just said and they might] say [RHQ], “[You say that] the laws [God gave Moses] did not [enable us to stop sinning, but that God is now] treating us kindly in ways we do not deserve. ([That seems to mean that God permits] us to continue sinning./[Does that mean that God permits] us to continue sinning?) [RHQ]” My reply to that is no, we should certainly not continue [sinning]

16 [Slaves] have to obey [what their masters command] [MET] [them to do]. (I want you to remember this./Do you not know this?) [RHQ] Similarly, if you present yourselves to someone [in order to] obey him, you will be the slaves [MET] of the person you obey. Similarly, [if you have yielded yourselves to do the] sinful things [you desire], you are slaves of your sinful desires [PRS], and you will be eternally separated from God. [If you have yielded yourselves] to obey [God], you are slaves of God and you need to [live] righteously.

17 You were once slaves [to] your sinful [desires]. But you began to sincerely obey the new teaching [MET] that you were taught {that [people] taught you}. I thank God for that.
ಅಪರಞ್ಚ ಪೂರ್ವ್ವಂ ಯೂಯಂ ಪಾಪಸ್ಯ ಭೃತ್ಯಾ ಆಸ್ತೇತಿ ಸತ್ಯಂ ಕಿನ್ತು ಯಸ್ಯಾಂ ಶಿಕ್ಷಾರೂಪಾಯಾಂ ಮೂಷಾಯಾಂ ನಿಕ್ಷಿಪ್ತಾ ಅಭವತ ತಸ್ಯಾ ಆಕೃತಿಂ ಮನೋಭಿ ರ್ಲಬ್ಧವನ್ತ ಇತಿ ಕಾರಣಾದ್ ಈಶ್ವರಸ್ಯ ಧನ್ಯವಾದೋ ಭವತು|
18 [I] also [thank God that] you have been freed {[that] he has freed you} from [being controlled by a desire to] sin, and that you have become [as though you were] slaves [MET] to [living] righteously [MET].
ಇತ್ಥಂ ಯೂಯಂ ಪಾಪಸೇವಾತೋ ಮುಕ್ತಾಃ ಸನ್ತೋ ಧರ್ಮ್ಮಸ್ಯ ಭೃತ್ಯಾ ಜಾತಾಃ|
19 I am illustrating what I say [by talking about slavery] because your human nature prevents you from understanding [spiritual truth] easily. [In the past] you willingly did the immoral and unlawful things that [your minds compelled] your bodies to do [MET], [just like] slaves [do what their masters compel them to do]. As a result, you did even more unlawful things. Now, [you need to] willingly allow [your minds to compel] your bodies to [act] righteously [MET], in order that you will behave in a holy/pure way.

20 When you were [like] slaves [because your sinful desires compelled you to do] sinful things [MET], you were not [concerned about behaving] righteously [MET].
ಯದಾ ಯೂಯಂ ಪಾಪಸ್ಯ ಭೃತ್ಯಾ ಆಸ್ತ ತದಾ ಧರ್ಮ್ಮಸ್ಯ ನಾಯತ್ತಾ ಆಸ್ತ|
21 Nevertheless, [doing] those things resulted in your being separated from God, so you did not benefit at all from [doing] the [sinful] things that you are now ashamed of. [RHQ]
ತರ್ಹಿ ಯಾನಿ ಕರ್ಮ್ಮಾಣಿ ಯೂಯಮ್ ಇದಾನೀಂ ಲಜ್ಜಾಜನಕಾನಿ ಬುಧ್ಯಧ್ವೇ ಪೂರ್ವ್ವಂ ತೈ ರ್ಯುಷ್ಮಾಕಂ ಕೋ ಲಾಭ ಆಸೀತ್? ತೇಷಾಂ ಕರ್ಮ್ಮಣಾಂ ಫಲಂ ಮರಣಮೇವ|
22 But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios )

23 [What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios )
