Romans 6
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
Boye, toloba nini? Tosalaka na biso masumu mpo ete ngolu efuluka koleka?
2 May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
Soki moke te! Biso oyo tosila kokufa mpo na lisumu, ndenge nini tozongela lisusu kotambola kati na masumu?
3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were immersed into Messiah Yeshua were immersed into his death?
Boni, boyebi te ete biso nyonso oyo tosila kobatisama kati na Yesu-Klisto tozwaki nde libatisi kati na kufa na Ye?
4 We were buried therefore with him through immersion into death, that just as Messiah was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
Bakundaki biso elongo na Ye na nzela ya libatisi kati na kufa na Ye mpo ete, lokola Klisto asekwaki kati na bakufi na nzela ya nkembo ya Tata, biso mpe totambola na bomoi ya sika.
5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
Pamba te soki tosanganaki elongo na Ye kati na kufa na Ye, solo tokosangana mpe elongo na Ye kati na lisekwa na Ye.
6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
Pamba te toyebi malamu ete bomoto ya kala ebakamaki na ekulusu elongo na Klisto mpo ete nzoto na biso lokola esalelo ya lisumu ekufa mpe tozala lisusu bawumbu ya lisumu te.
7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.
Moto nyonso oyo asilaki kokufa atangamaki lokola moto ya sembo: azali lisusu te na se ya bokonzi ya lisumu.
8 But if we died with Messiah, we believe that we will also live with him,
Nzokande, lokola tosila kokufa elongo na Klisto, tozali kondima ete tokozala mpe na bomoi elongo na Ye.
9 knowing that Messiah, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
Pamba te toyebi malamu ete Klisto oyo asekwaki kati na bakufi akokufa lisusu te; kufa ezali lisusu na bokonzi te likolo na Ye.
10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
Akufaki mpo na lisumu mbala moko mpo na libela; kasi sik’oyo azali na bomoi, mpe azali na bomoi mpo na Nzambe.
11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Messiah Yeshua our Lord.
Boye bino mpe, bomimona lokola bakufi mpo na lisumu, kasi lokola bato ya bomoi mpo na Nzambe kati na Yesu-Klisto.
12 Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
Yango wana, tika ete lisumu ezala lisusu na bokonzi te kati na banzoto na bino, oyo ekokufa; mpe bosengeli lisusu te kotosa baposa na yango ya mabe.
13 Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
Bokaba biteni ya banzoto na bino te na lisumu lokola bisalelo mpo na mabe, kasi bomikaba bino moko epai na Nzambe lokola bato oyo basekwa kati na bakufi mpe bazali na bomoi; mpe bokabela Ye biteni ya banzoto na bino lokola bisalelo mpo na bosembo.
14 For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
Pamba te lisumu ekozala lisusu na bokonzi te likolo na bino, pamba te bozali lisusu na se ya bokonzi ya Mobeko te, kasi na se ya ngolu.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
Boye toloba nini? Tokoba kosala masumu mpo ete tozali na se ya bokonzi ya Mobeko te kasi na se ya ngolu? Soki moke te!
16 Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
Boni, boyebi te ete soki bomikabi epai ya moto lokola bawumbu mpo na kotosa ye bokomi nde bawumbu ya moto oyo bozali kotosa to bawumbu ya lisumu oyo ememaka na kufa to bawumbu ya botosi oyo ememaka na bosembo?
17 But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
Kasi tika ete tozongisa matondi epai ya Nzambe! Soki na kala bozalaki bawumbu ya lisumu, kasi sik’oyo bokomi kotosa na motema mobimba mateya oyo bateyaki bino,
18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
bosili kokangolama na bowumbu ya lisumu mpe bokomi bawumbu ya bosembo.
19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
Nazali koloba awa lokola moto mpo na bolembu na bino ya bomoto. Ndenge na kala, bokabaki biteni ya banzoto na bino na bowumbu ya misala ya mbindo mpe ya mabe mpo na kosala mabe, ndenge wana mpe bokaba yango sik’oyo na bowumbu ya bosembo mpo na kotambola na bomoi ya bosantu.
20 For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
Tango bozalaki nanu bawumbu ya lisumu, bozalaki na bonsomi liboso ya bosembo.
21 What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
Nzokande, litomba nini bozwaki na tango wana oyo bozalaki kosala makambo oyo ezali koyokisa bino lelo soni, pamba te ememaka na kufa?
22 But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Kasi awa bolongwe sik’oyo na se ya bowumbu ya lisumu mpe bokomi na se ya bowumbu ya Nzambe, litomba oyo bozwi ezali bomoi ya bosantu, mpe suka na yango ezali bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
