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 should we say then? Should we continue in sin, that 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?
Absolutely not. We who died to sin, how could we live 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.
Or do you not know that all we who 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.
We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might 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.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part 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.
knowing this, that our old self 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.
7 Lè yon moun mouri, li delivre anba pouvwa peche a.
For he who has died has been freed from sin.
8 Si nou mouri ansanm ak Kris la, nou kwè nava viv tou ansanm avè li.
But if 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, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has 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 to sin one time; but the life that 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.
In the same way, consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to 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 do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in 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.
Neither 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.
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 will not have dominion over you. For 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? Should we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Absolutely 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 present yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to 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, whereas you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were entrusted.
18 Nou delivre anba peche. Koulye a se esklav sa ki byen nou ye.
Being made free from sin, you became 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 human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as slaves to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as slaves to righteousness for 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 of sin, you were free in regard 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 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.
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, being made free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit of sanctification, and the result of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
