Romans 6
1 What are we to say, then? Are we to continue to sin, in order that God’s loving-kindness may be multiplied?
Tijova kyani hinu? Ndi tiyendelela kutama mukubuda muni ubwina wa Chapanga uyonjokeseka?
2 Heaven forbid! We became dead to sin, and how can we go on living in it?
Hati padebe! Petijova ndava ya makakala ga kumbudila Chapanga gegavi mugati yitu tete ngati tifwili, wu, tiyendelela wuli kutama mukubuda?
3 Or can it be that you do not know that all of us, who were baptized into union with Christ Jesus, in our baptism shared his death?
Wu, mmanyi lepi ngati petabatiziwi tawungini na Kilisitu Yesu? Tabatiziwi na kuwungana nayu mu lifwa laki.
4 Consequently, through sharing his death in our baptism, we were buried with him; that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by a manifestation of the Father’s power, so we also may live a new Life.
Patabatiziwi tazikiwi pamonga nayu na kuwungana nayu mu lifwa laki, muni ngati Kilisitu cheayukili kuhuma lifwa kwa ukulu wa Dadi, mewawa na tete tihotola kutama muwumi wa mupya.
5 If we have become united with him by the act symbolic of his death, surely we shall also become united with him by the act symbolic of his resurrection.
Muni, ngati tete tiwungini nimwene mulifwa ngati cheafwili mwene, mewawa tiwungana nayu mkuyukiswa ngati cheayukili mwene.
6 We recognise the truth that our old self was crucified with Christ, in order that the body, the stronghold of Sin, might be rendered powerless, so that we should no longer be slaves to Sin.
Timmanyili ngati matendu gitu ga kadeni gavambiwi pamsalaba pamonga na Kilisitu, muni makakala ga kubuda gegavi mu higa yitu yihalabiswai, na tikotoka kuvya kangi vavanda va kubuda.
7 For the man who has so died has been pronounced righteous and released from Sin.
Ndava muni, mundu akafwayi ivya lepi pahi ya makakala ga kumkubudila Chapanga gegihenga lihengu mugati yitu.
8 And our belief is, that, as we have shared Christ’s Death, we shall also share his Life.
Hinu, ngati tikafwai pamonga na Kilisitu, tisadika kuvya titama mewa pamonga na mwene.
9 We know, indeed, that Christ, having once risen from the dead, will not die again. Death has power over him no longer.
Muni, timanyili ngati Kilisitu amalili kuyuka kuhuma kufwa namwene ifwa lepi kangi, mewa lifwa nakumtalalila kavili.
10 For the death that he died was a death to sin, once and for all. But the Life that he now lives, he lives for God.
Ndava afwili mala yimonga ndu, kubuda kuvi lepi na makakala kavili kwaki, na hinu mumi na itama pamonga Chapanga.
11 So let it be with you — regard yourselves as dead to sin, but as living for God, through union with Christ Jesus.
Mewawa na nyenye mjivalangayi mfwili kwa malovi ga makakala ga kumbudila Chapanga na mlongoswa lepi kangi na kubuda, nambu chemwitama mu kuwungana na Chapanga kwa njila ya Kilisitu Yesu.
12 Therefore do not let Sin reign in your mortal bodies and compel you to obey its cravings.
Hinu, kumbudila Chapanga kukoto kutalalila higa yinu yeyifwa, muni mkoto kuyidakila mnogo wa higa.
13 Do not offer any part of your bodies to Sin, in the cause of unrighteousness, but once for all offer yourselves to God (as those who, though once dead, now have Life), and devote every part of your bodies to the cause of righteousness.
Mewawa mkoto kuwusa hati chiwungu chinu chimonga cha higa ndava ya kumbudila Chapanga. Pahala paki, mujiwusai mwavene kwa Chapanga ngati vandu vevayukiswi kuhuma lifwa, mujiwusa mwavene kwa Chapanga ndava ya lihengu la kumganisa mwene.
14 For Sin shall not lord it over you. You are living under the reign, not of Law, but of Love.
Muni, kumbudila Chapanga kukoto kuvya na makakala panani yinu, muni nyenye mwilongoswa lepi na malagizu, nambu mwilongoswa na ubwina wa Chapanga.
15 What follows, then? Are we to sin because we are living under the reign of Love and not of Law? Heaven forbid!
Hinu, tijova wuli? Wu, tiyendelela kukita uhakau ndava tilongoswa lepi na malagizu nambu tilongoswa na ubwina wa Chapanga? Hati padebe!
16 Surely you know that, when you offer yourselves as servants, to obey any one, you are the servants of the person whom you obey, whether the service be that of Sin which leads to Death, or that of Duty which leads to Righteousness.
Mmanyi ngati mukajiwusayi mwavene ngati vavanda kumuyidakila mundu nunuyu, nyenye mwivya chakaka vavanda va mundu yula mwemukumuyidakila. Mkavyai vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga yati mmalikisila kulifwa, amala mkavya vavanda va kumuyidakila Chapanga yati mwivya vabwina palongolo yaki.
17 God be thanked that, though you were once servants of Sin, yet you learned to give hearty obedience to that form of doctrine under which you were placed.
Nambu asengusiwayi Chapanga ndava muni hati ngati mwavi vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga, nambu hinu mkamula kwa mtima woha uchakaka wa gala goha gegavi mu mawuliwu gemwapokili.
18 Set free from the control of Sin, you became servants to Righteousness.
Nyenye pemwagomboliwi kuhuma uvanda wa kumbudila Chapanga, mukavya vavanda va kuhenga geigana Chapanga.
19 I can but speak as men do because of the weakness of your earthly nature. Once you offered every part of your bodies to the service of impurity, and of wickedness, which leads to further wickedness. Now, in the same way, offer them to the service of Righteousness, which leads to holiness.
Penapa nijova lepi malovi geginonopa nitumila malovi ga magono goha muni nyenye muhotola lepi kuniyelewa chenijova. Ngati kadeni chamwajiwusili kuvya vavanda va kubuda na uhakau, mewawa hinu mganikiwa mujiwusayi kuvya vavanda kuhenga gala geigana Chapanga muni munyambiswa.
20 While you were still servants of Sin, you were free as regards Righteousness.
Ndava muni pemwavili vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga mwakungiwi lepi kuhenga mambu gegakumganisa Chapanga.
21 But what were the fruits that you reaped from those things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of such things is Death.
Hinu mwapatili chiyonjokesu choki magono gala ndava ya mambu gala gemwakitili na hinu mwikola soni? Ndava gala gemwakitili gileta lifwa!
22 But now that you have been set free from the control of Sin, and have become servants to God, the fruit that you reap is an ever-increasing holiness, and the end Immortal Life. (aiōnios g166)
Nambu hinu mmalili kugombolewa kuhuma ku uvanda wa kumbudila Chapanga na muvi vavanda va Chapanga. Chiyonjokesu chemuvi nachu hinu Umsopi ndi wewileta wumi wa magono goha wangali mwishu. (aiōnios g166)
