Romans 6
1 To what conclusion, then, shall we come? Are we to persist in sinning in order that the grace extended to us may be the greater?
Nomba lino ngatwambaconi? Sena tupitilishe kwikala mubwipishi kwambeti kwinamoyo kwa Lesa kukonempe?
2 No, indeed; how shall we who have died to sin, live in it any longer?
Sobwe! Afwe twalabeti twafwa pakwamba sha ngofu sha bwipishi pali njafwe. Ngatupitilishaconi kwikala mubwipishi?
3 And do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
Sena nkamucinshi kwambeti twense afwe twalekatana pamo ne Yesu Klistu kupitila mulubatisho lwakendi, kayi twalabatishiwa pamo mu lufu lwakendi?
4 Well, then, we by our baptism were buried with Him in death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from among the dead by the Father's glorious power, we also should live an entirely new life.
Weco pakubatishiwa twalabeti twalafwa ne kubikwa mumanda pamo nendiye, kwambeti mbuli Yesu ncalapunduka kubafu ne ngofu shabulemeneno bwa Bata, nenjafwe twikale ne buyumi bwalinolino.
5 For since we have become one with Him by sharing in His death, we shall also be one with Him by sharing in His resurrection.
Na tulaba pamo ne Klistu mu lufu lwakendi, nicimo cimo ne kwambeti nitukabe pamo nendiye pakupunduka kubafu, mbuli ncalapunduka.
6 This we know--that our old self was nailed to the cross with Him, in order that our sinful nature might be deprived of its power, so that we should no longer be the slaves of sin;
Neco tucinsheti buntu bwetu bwakaindi bwalapopwa pa lusanda pamo ne Klistu, kwambeti ngofu sha bwikalo bwa bwipishi shifwe, kwambeti tubule kuba basha ba bwipishi.
7 for he who has paid the penalty of death stands absolved from his sin.
Pakwinga na muntu lafu, ekwambeti lasunguluwa ku ngofu sha bwipishi.
8 But, seeing that we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him;
Nomba na twalafwa pamo ne Klistu, twashoma kwambeti nitukabe ne buyumi pamo nendiye.
9 because we know that Christ, having come back to life, is no longer liable to die.
Tucinsheti Klistu walapunduka kubafu, kayi nteshi akafwepo. Lufu luliyapo ngofu pali endiye.
10 Death has no longer any power over Him. For by the death which He died He became, once for all, dead in relation to sin; but by the life which He now lives He is alive in relation to God.
Kufwa kwakendi kwalikuba kwa kulekana ne bwipishi, kayi walafwa kamo konka. Lino buyumi mbwakute cino cindi ni buyumi bwekatana ne Lesa.
11 In the same way you also must regard yourselves as dead in relation to sin, but as alive in relation to God, because you are in Christ Jesus.
Nenjamwe mulibone kubeti bafwa pakwamba shangofu sha bwipishi pali njamwe, nsombi bakute buyumi kuli Lesa, pakwikatana pamo ne Klistu.
12 Let not Sin therefore reign as king in your mortal bodies, causing you to be in subjection to their cravings;
Weco kamutasuminisha bwipishi kwambeti bwendeleshe mibili yenu ikute kufwa, kayi mutakomwa ne lunkumbwa lwaipa lwa mibili yenu.
13 and no longer lend your faculties as unrighteous weapons for Sin to use. On the contrary surrender your very selves to God as living men who have risen from the dead, and surrender your several faculties to God, to be used as weapons to maintain the right.
Mutayaba cilama ciliconse ca mubili wenu ku bwipishi, kwambeti cisebense incito itendelana ne bululami. Amwe muliyabe kuli Lesa mbuli bantu balikuba bafwa, nsombi lino bakute buyumi. Kayi muyabe mubili wenu wonse kuli Lesa kwambeti usebense ncito yalulama.
14 For Sin shall not be lord over you, since you are subjects not of Law, but of grace.
Lino bwipishi nteshi bukabe ne ngofu palinjamwe, pakwinga cilendeleshenga buyumi bwenu nteyo Milawo sobwe nsombi kwina moyo kwa Lesa.
15 Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!
Nomba nicani lino? Sena tubenga beshikwinsa bwipishi pakwinga cilendeleshenga buyumi bwetu nteyo Milawo, nsombi kwina moyo kwa Lesa? Sobwe!
16 Do you not know that if you surrender yourselves as bondservants to obey any one, you become the bondservants of him whom you obey, whether the bondservants of Sin (with death as the result) or of Duty (resulting in righteousness)?
Lino mucinsheti mwaliyaba kuba basha bamuntu ne kumunyumfwila ekwambeti njamwe basha ba muntuyo ngomulanyumfwilinga, namuba basha kubwipishi nditu nimukafwe. Nsombi na mulaba basha beshikunyumfwila Lesa ni mukabe balulama pamenso a Lesa.
17 But thanks be to God that though you were once in thraldom to Sin, you have now yielded a hearty obedience to that system of truth in which you have been instructed.
Katumulumbaishani Lesa. Amwe kaindi mwalikuba basha ba bwipishi, nsombi lino mulanyumfunga ne myoyo yenu yonse cakubinga ca lwiyo ndomwalatambula.
18 You were set free from the tyranny of Sin, and became the bondservants of Righteousness--
Mwalasungululwa ku bwipishi, nomba lino mulaba basha babululami.
19 your human infirmity leads me to employ these familiar figures--and just as you once surrendered your faculties into bondage to Impurity and ever-increasing disregard of Law, so you must now surrender them into bondage to Righteousness ever advancing towards perfect holiness.
Ndamwambili mukoshano uyu wa busha kwambeti mutalilwa kunyumfwishisha bintu ibi. Kaindi mwalikuliyabeti mube basha ba bintu byaipa ne nshila shaipa. Neco lino kamuliyabani kwambeti mube basha babululami kwambeti mube baswepa myoyo.
20 For when you were the bondservants of sin, you were under no sort of subjection to Righteousness.
Pacindi mpomwalikuba basha ba bwipishi, nkamwalikuyeyako sha bintu Lesa mbyakute kwambeti byabululami.
21 At that time, then, what benefit did you get from conduct which you now regard with shame? Why, such things finally result in death.
Nomba mwalacanapo cani pakwinsa bintu bilamupanga nsoni cino cindi? Pakwinga bintu bisa mapwililisho akendi ni lufu.
22 But now that you have been set free from the tyranny of Sin, and have become the bondservants of God, you have your reward in being made holy, and you have the Life of the Ages as the final result. (aiōnios g166)
Nsombi lino mulasungululwa kubwipishi, kayi njamwe beshikusebensela Lesa. Cakucanapo pa bintu ibi nikulibenga kuli Lesa kayi nacimbi cakucanapo ni buyumi butapu. (aiōnios g166)
