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?
What then shall we say? Shall we continue to abound in sin, in order that grace may come to 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?
No indeed; how shall we who have died to sin still go on living in it any longer?
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.
For do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Jesus Christ, have been 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.
We have been buried together with him, then, through baptism into his death, in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we should live in a 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.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, so we shall also be united with him in the likeness of his resurrection.
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.
For this we know, that our old self was crucified with Christ, in order that the slave of sin might be destroyed; so that we should no longer be in slavery to sin -
7 Lè yon moun mouri, li delivre anba pouvwa peche a.
for he who is dead is set free from sin.
8 Si nou mouri ansanm ak Kris la, nou kwè nava viv tou ansanm avè li.
Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall 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, being raised from the dead, dies no more; death has no more dominion over 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.
For the death that he died, he died unto sin once for all; but the life that he lives he is living unto 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.
Even so count yourselves also to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
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 let not sin rule as king in your mortal body, compelling you to obey its lusts.
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 continue to present any part of your body to sin to be used as a weapon of unrighteousness. On the contrary, be presenting yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and the various parts of your bodies to be used as weapons of righteousness.
14 Peche pa dwe donminen sou nou, paske nou pa anba pouvwa lalwa Moyiz la ankò, se anba favè Bondye a nou ye.
For sin shall not lord it over you; for you are not under the rule of law, but under the rule of 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 commit an act of sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly 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 surrender yourselves as slaves to any one to obey him, you are his slaves whom you obey; whether it be sin, whose end is death, or obedience, whose end is 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 God be thanked that you who were once the slaves of sin have obeyed from your hearts that type of teaching to which you were appointed;
18 Nou delivre anba peche. Koulye a se esklav sa ki byen nou ye.
and being set free from sin, you became the slaves of 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 speak in these homely figures because of the weakness of your fleshly nature - just as you once surrendered your faculties into slavery to impurity and to all lawlessness, so now you must surrender your faculties into slavery to righteousness, unto deeds of holiness.
20 Lè n' te esklav peche a, nou pa t' gen okenn obligasyon pou n' te fè sa ki byen.
For when you were the slaves of sin, you were under no subjection to 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.
What harvest-fruit then had you at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For 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 that you have been set free from sin and become slaves of God, the harvest-fruit which you are reaping tends to produce holiness, and it ends is life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
