< 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]
Що ж скажемо? чи зостанемось у грісі, щоб благодать помножилась? Нехай не буде (так).
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]
Ми, що померли гріхом, як ще жити мем в йому?
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]
Хиба не знаєте, що скільки нас у Христа Ісуса охрестилось, у смерть Його охрестились?
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.
Бо погреблись ми з Ним через хрещеннє у смерть, щоб, як Христос устав із мертвих славою Отця, так і ми в обновленню життя ходили.
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.
Коли бо ми з'єднані (з Ним) подобиєм смерти Його, то й (подобиєм) воскресення будемо,
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].
знаючи, що давнього нашого чоловіка з Ним розпято, щоб зникло тїло гріховне, щоб не служити нам більш гріху.
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].
Хто бо вмер, той визволивсь од гріха.
8 Since [it is as though] we died with Christ, we believe that we will continue to live with him.
Коли ж ми вмерли з Христом, віруємо, що й жити мем з Ним,
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].
знаючи, що Христос, уставши з мертвих, уже більш не вмре: смерть над Ним більш не панує.
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.
Бо що вмер, за гріх вмер Він раз, а що живе, Богові живе.
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.
Так само й ви думайте, що ви мертві вже гріху, живі ж Богові, у Христі Ісусі, Господі нашім.
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].
Нехай же не царює гріх у смертному вашому тїлї, так щоб коритись йому в похотях його;
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.
анї оддавайте членів ваших гріху, (яко) знаряддє неправді, а оддавайте себе Богові, яко з мертвих оживших, і члени ваші, (яко) знаряддє правди, Богові.
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].
Гріх бо над вами нехай не панує; не під законом бо ви, а під благодаттю.
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]
Що ж? чи будемо грішити, що ми не під законом, а під благодаттю? Нехай не буде.
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.
Хиба не знаєте, що кому оддаєте себе в слуги на послух, того ви й слуги, кого слухаєте: чи то гріха на смерть, чи слухання на праведність?
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.
Дяка ж Богові, що ви були слугами гріха, та послухали від серця тої науки, якій і піддались.
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].
Визволивши ся ж од гріха, зробились ви слугами правди.
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.
По чоловічи глаголю ради немочи тіла вашого: як ви оддавали члени ваші в слуги нечистоті і беззаконню на беззаконнє, так тепер оддайте члени ваші в слуги правді на сьвятість.
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].
Коли бо ви були слугами гріха, вільні (нагі) були від праведності.
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]
Який же тоді мали ви овощ з того, чого тепер соромитесь? конець бо того - смерть.
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 )
Тепер ж визволившись од гріха і ставшись слугами Богу, маєте овощ ваш на осьвяченнє, конець же - життє вічне. (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 )
Плата бо за гріх смерть, даруваннє ж Боже - життє вічне в Христї Ісусї, Господі нашім. (aiōnios )
