ローマ人への手紙 6
1 第一款 キリストに於る信仰によりて義とせられし人の道義的生活 然らば我等何をか云はん、恩寵の溢れん事を期して罪に止らんか、
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 然らず、我等は罪に死したる者なれば、争でか尚罪に活くべき。
May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
3 知らずやキリスト、イエズスに於て洗せられし我等が、皆其死に擬して洗せられたる事を。
Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 蓋我等は其死に倣はん為に、洗禮を以て彼と共に葬られたるなり、是キリストが御父の光榮を以死者の中より復活し給ひし如く、我等も亦新しき生命に歩まん為なり。
We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
5 蓋我等は彼に接がれて其死の状態に肖似りたれば、其復活にも亦肖似るべし。
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6 我等の古き人が彼と共に十字架に釘けられしは、罪の身を亡ぼされて再び罪の奴隷とならざらん為なる事は我等之を知る、
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.
7 死したる人は罪を脱れたればなり。
For he who has died has been freed from sin.
8 我等は信ず、我等若キリストと共に死したらば、亦キリストと共に活きんと。
But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,
9 其はキリストは死者の中より復活して最早死し給ふ事なく、死が更に之を司る事なかるべしと知ればなり。
knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
10 死せしは罪の為にして一度死し給ひたれど、活くるは神の為に活き給ふなり。
For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
11 斯の如く汝等も己を、罪には死したる者なれども、神の為には我主キリスト、イエズスに於て活ける者と思へ。
Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
12 故に罪は汝等を其諸慾に從はしむるほど、汝等の死すべき身の中に王たるべからず。
Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13 尚又汝等の五體を不義の武器として罪に献ぐること勿れ、却て死したりしに活くる者として己を神に献げ、五體をも神の為に義の武器として献げよ。
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.
14 其は汝等既に律法の下に在らずして恩寵の下に在るが故に、罪の汝等を司る事あるまじければなり。
For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
15 然らば如何にすべきか、我等は律法の下に在らずして恩寵の下に在るが故に罪を犯すべきか、然らず。
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
16 知らずや、汝等順はんとて己を奴隷として献ぐれば、其順ふ所の者の奴隷となる事を。或は罪の奴隷として死に至り、或は從順の奴隷として義に至る。
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?
17 然れど神に感謝す、汝等は罪の奴隷たりしに、交付されて學びたる教の法に心より從ひ、
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.
18 且罪より救はれて義の奴隷となりたるなり。
Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
19 我汝等の肉の弱きに對して、人の語法を以て云はん、即ち汝等不義の為に五體を不潔不義の奴隷として献げたりしが如く、今は聖とならん為に五體を義の奴隷として献げよ。
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.
20 汝等罪の奴隷たりし時、義に對しては自由の身なりしが、
For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
21 其時に今耻と為る事を以て何の好果を得たりしぞ、即ち是等の事の終は死あるのみ。
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.
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)
