Ròm 6
1 Nan kondisyon sa a, kisa n'a di? Eske nou mèt kontinye ap viv toujou nan peche pou favè Bondye a ka vin pi plis toujou?
So what shall we say? Shall we continue in the sin so that the grace may abound?
2 Non. Sa pa ka fèt. Poukisa? Paske annegad peche nou mouri. Ki jan pou n' ta ka kontinye ap viv toujou nan peche?
Of course not! How can we who died to sin keep on living in it?
3 Eske nou pa konn sa: nou tout ki resevwa batèm pou n' te fè yonn ak Jezikri, avèk batèm sa a nou te fè yonn avè l' nan lanmò li.
Or are you unaware that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
4 Se sak fè, avèk batèm nou an nou te antere ansanm avè l', nou te mouri ansanm avè l' tou. Men, menm jan Papa a te fè l' leve soti nan lanmò avèk gwo fòs pouvwa li, konsa tou nou menm nou ka mennen yon lòt lavi.
Therefore, we were buried with Him by means of that baptism into that death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by means of the Father's glory, we also should walk in newness of life.
5 Menm jan nou fè yonn ak li paske nou te mouri yon jan tankou li menm li te mouri a, konsa tou n'a fè yonn avè li, paske n'a leve soti vivan nan lanmò tankou l' tou.
Now if we have become united with Him in His death, we will certainly be in His resurrection as well;
6 Nou konn sa byen: vye moun nou te ye anvan an, sa mouri avèk Kris la sou kwa a. Konsa, sa nou gen nan kò nou ki te konn fè nou fè peche a fini. Nou pa esklav peche ankò.
knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him in order that the body of the sin might be set aside, so that we no longer be enslaved to that sin—
7 Lè yon moun mouri, li delivre anba pouvwa peche a.
because he who has died has been released from that sin.
8 Si nou mouri ansanm ak Kris la, nou kwè nava viv tou ansanm avè li.
Now since we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him,
9 Nou konnen Kris la te leve soti vivan nan lanmò, li pa gen pou l' mouri ankò; lanmò pa gen okenn pouvwa sou li.
knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, cannot die again; death can no longer master Him
10 Lè l' te mouri, se pou peche li te mouri. Li mouri yon sèl fwa, li p'ap janm mouri ankò. Koulye a l'ap viv, se pou Bondye l'ap viv.
—the death He died He died to sin once for all, while the life He lives He lives to God.
11 Konsa tou, nou menm, konsidere tèt nou tankou moun ki deja mouri annegad peche epi k'ap viv pou Bondye ansanm avèk Jezikri.
Thus you also, consider yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
12 Pa kite peche donminen sou kò nou ki gen pou mouri a, pou l' fè nou fè tou sa kò a anvi fè.
Therefore do not let the sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey it with the body's evil desires
13 Pa lage okenn pati nan kò nou nan peche, pou peche a pa sèvi avè l' pou fè sa ki mal. Okontrè, tankou moun ki delivre anba lanmò epi k'ap viv, ann lage kò nou nan men Bondye. Wi, mete tout pati nan kò nou nan men Bondye pou l' ka sèvi ak yo pou fè sa ki byen.
—do not present any part of your body to sin as an implement for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead, and your body parts to God as implements for righteousness.
14 Peche pa dwe donminen sou nou, paske nou pa anba pouvwa lalwa Moyiz la ankò, se anba favè Bondye a nou ye.
Really, sin must not rule over you, because you are not under law but under grace.
15 Kisa sa vle di menm? Paske nou pa anba lalwa Moyiz la ankò men anba favè Bondye a, èske nou ta mèt fè peche pou sa? Men non.
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Of course not!
16 Nou konn sa byen: Si nou lage tèt nou nan men yon moun pou nou sèvi l' esklav pou n' obeyi l', nou tounen esklav moun n'ap obeyi a. Si nou lage kò nou nan peche, nou tounen esklav peche k'ap fè nou jwenn ak lanmò. Men, si nou lage kò nou nan obeyi Bondye, n'a esklav obeyisans k'ap fè nou mache dwat devan Bondye.
Do you not know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey them as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether of sin into death, or of obedience into righteousness?
17 Men, ann di mèsi Bondye! Paske yon lè nou menm nou te esklav peche; men koulye a, egzanp nou jwenn nan sa yo te moutre nou an, n'ap swiv li ak tout kè nou.
But thanks be to God that although you used to be the slaves of the sin you wholeheartedly obeyed that pattern of doctrine into which you were delivered.
18 Nou delivre anba peche. Koulye a se esklav sa ki byen nou ye.
So having been emancipated from the sin, you became enslaved to the righteousness.
19 M'ap pale ak nou tankou lèzòm ta pale paske nou fèb nan kò nou. Te gen yon lè nou te lage tout kò nou nan fè move bagay ak mechanste, tankou moun ki esklav yo pou n' te fè sa ki mal. Konsa tou koulye a, ann lage tout kò nou nan fè sa ki byen, tankou moun ki esklav Bondye pou n' ka viv apa pou li.
I continue to speak on a human level because of the weakness of your flesh. Now just as you used to present your body parts as slaves to uncleanness, and to ever increasing lawlessness, so now present your body parts as slaves to righteousness with a view to sanctification.
20 Lè n' te esklav peche a, nou pa t' gen okenn obligasyon pou n' te fè sa ki byen.
For when you were slaves to the sin, you were ‘free’ from the righteousness.
21 Lè sa a, kisa n' te fè? Nou t'ap fè bagay ki fè nou wont jòdi a. Bagay sa yo fè nou jwenn ak lanmò.
So what ‘fruit’ did you have at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? The end of those things is death!
22 Men, koulye a nou delivre anba peche a, nou se esklav Bondye, se sak fè n'ap viv apa pou Bondye; epi bout pou bout n'a resevwa lavi ki p'ap janm fini an. (aiōnios g166)
But now, having been emancipated from the sin, and having become enslaved to God, you have your ‘fruit’ into sanctification—and the end is eternal life! (aiōnios g166)
