Ròm 6
1 Konsa, Kisa nou kapab di? Èske n ap kontinye nan peche pou lagras kapab vin plis?
What then shall we say? Shall we continue to abound in sin, in order that grace may come to abound?
2 Ke sa pa janm fèt! Kijan nou menm ki te mouri a peche nou kapab kontinye viv nan li?
No indeed; how shall we who have died to sin still go on living in it any longer?
3 Oubyen èske nou pa konnen ke nou tout ki batize nan Kris Jésus a, gen tan batize 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 Konsa, nou gen tan antere avèk Li pa batèm nan lanmò Li a, pouke menm jan Kris te leve soti vivan nan lanmò a pa laglwa a Papa a, nou osi kapab mache nan nouvèl vi a.
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 Paske si nou vin sanble avèk Li nan lanmò Li, n ap vin sanble avèk Li nan rezirèksyon Li 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 Byen rekonesan ke ansyen moun nou an te krisifye avèk Li, pouke kò peche nou an ta kapab vin disparèt pou nou kab pa esklav a 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 Paske sila ki gen tan mouri an, libere de peche.
for he who is dead is set free from sin.
8 Alò si nou gen tan mouri avèk Kris, nou kwè osi ke n ap viv avèk Li.
Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;
9 Paske nou konnen ke Kris ki te leve soti nan lanmò a, p ap janm mouri ankò. Lanmò pa mèt Li ankò.
knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more; death has no more dominion over him.
10 Paske lanmò ke Li te mouri an, Li te mouri anvè peche, yon fwa pou tout, men vi ke L ap viv la, L ap viv pou Bondye.
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 Menm jan konsidere nou menm kòm mò ak peche, men vivan anvè Bondye nan Jésus Kri.
Even so count yourselves also to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
12 Konsa, pa kite peche reye nan kò mòtèl nou an, pou nou ta obeyi tout mal dezi li yo.
Therefore let not sin rule as king in your mortal body, compelling you to obey its lusts.
13 Pa kontinye ofri manm kò nou a peche kòm enstriman a lenjistis, men prezante nou menm a Bondye kòm moun ki deja vivan soti nan lanmò, e manm kò nou a Bondye kòm enstriman ladwati.
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 Paske peche pa dwe mèt nou, paske nou pa anba Lalwa, men anba gras.
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 Ankò? Èske n ap fè peche paske nou pa anba Lalwa, men anba gras? Ke sa pa janm fèt!
What then? Shall we commit an act of sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not.
16 Èske nou pa konnen ke lè nou livre tèt nou a yon moun kòm esklav obeyisan, nou vin esklav a sila ke nou obeyi a; swa a peche ki bay kòm rezilta lanmò, oubyen a obeyisans ki bay kòm rezilta ladwati?
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 mèsi Bondye, malgre nou te esklav a peche, nou te vin obeyisan nan kè nou a menm doktrin ke nou te resevwa a.
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 Epi lè nou te libere de peche, nou te vin esklav a ladwati.
and being set free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness -
19 M ap pale nan tèm a moun, akoz feblès lachè nou. Paske menm jan avan ke nou te konn prezante manm kò nou kòm esklav a salte ak linikite, ki te bay kòm rezilta, plis linikite toujou, koulye a prezante yo kòm esklav a ladwati ki bay kòm rezilta, sanktifikasyon.
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 Paske lè nou te esklav de peche a, nou te lib de sa ki konsène ladwati.
For when you were the slaves of sin, you were under no subjection to righteousness.
21 Donk Ki benefis nou te twouve konsa ki soti nan bagay yo ki fè nou wont koulye a? Paske sa ki soti nan bagay sa yo se 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 ke nou gen tan fin lib de peche, e vin esklav a Bondye, nou twouve benefis nou ki bay kòm benefis sanktifikasyon, e kòm rezilta, lavi etènèl. (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)
