Abaruumi 7
1 Temumanyi abooluganda, kubanga njogera eri abamanyi amateeka, ng’amateeka gafuga oyo yekka akyali omulamu?
Au mumanyilepi bhalongobhangu (kwa kujha nilongela ni bhanu ambabho bhajhimanyili sheria), kwamba sheria jhikan'tabhwala munu pa ijha hai?
2 Ka mbawe ekyokulabirako: mu mateeka omukazi omufumbo, asigala nga wa bba, bba bw’aba ng’akyali mulamu. Naye bba bw’afa, omukazi oyo ng’asumuluddwa mu tteeka eribagatta.
Kwandabha n'dala jha agegikibhu akhongibhu ni sheria kwa jhola ngwana munu paijha muomi, lakini akajhelayi ngwanamunu afuili, ibetakujha ajhe huru kuhoma sheria jha ndobho.
3 Noolwekyo omukazi oyo bwe yeegatta n’omusajja omulala, bba ng’akyali mulamu, omukazi oyo anaayitibwanga mwenzi. Naye bba bw’afanga, olwo omukazi omufumbo anaabanga asumuluddwa mu tteeka, era taabenga mwenzi bw’anaafumbirwanga omusajja omulala.
Henu basi, bho ngwanamunu akona muomi, ni muene itama ni n'gosi jhongi, ibetakukutibhwa mzinzi. Lakini ikajhiajhi ngwanamunu afuili, ajhe huru dhidi jha sheria, efyo ibetalepi kujha mzinzi ikajhiajhi igenda ni n'gosi jhongi.
4 Nammwe baganda bange mwafa eri amateeka, muli ba mubiri gwa Kristo. Mwegatta ku Kristo eyazuukizibwa okuva mu bafu, tulyoke tubale ebibala ebisanyusa Katonda.
Henu, bhalongobhangu, muenga kabhele mwajhele mwe bhafu kwa sheria kwa njela jha mb'el'e ghwa Kristu. Jhijhe naha ili mukabhayi kuunganisibhwa ni jhongi, kwa muene ambajhe afunulibhu kuhoma kwa bhafu ili tubhwesiajhi kun'hogolela K'yara matunda.
5 Kubanga bwe twali tukyafugibwa omubiri, okwegomba kw’ebibi kwakoleranga mu bitundu byaffe eby’omubiri olw’amateeka, era enkomerero kwali kufa.
Kwa ndabha bho tujhele mu hali jha mb'el'e, tamaa sya dhambi syajhumuiki mu fiungo fya tete kwa njela jha sheria ni kujhihogolela mauti matunda.
6 Naye kaakano tetukyafugibwa mateeka. Tuli bafu eri ebyo ebyali bitusibye, era tebitulinaako buyinza. Noolwekyo tuyinza okuweereza Katonda mu ngeri empya eya Mwoyo Mutukuvu, so si mu nkola enkadde ey’amateeka.
Lakini henu tubhopolibhu kuhoma mu sheria. Tujhifwelili hali jhela jhatubelili. Ili tete tukabhayi kutumika mu hali jipya jha Roho, ni tete mu hali muandi jha lijhandiku.
7 Kale tunaayogera ki? Amateeka kye kibi? Kikafuuwe. Singa tewaali mateeka, sanditegedde kibi. N’okwegomba kw’omubiri sandikutegeeredde ddala singa amateeka tegaagamba nti, “Teweegombanga.”
Tujobhajhi bhuli henu? Sheria ndo dhambi? La hasha. Hata naha nganijhimanyilepi dhambi, ngajhibeli kujha kwa njela jha sheria. Kwa kujha nganilimanyilepi kunoghela kama sheria ngajhijobhi lepi, “Usinogheli.”
8 Ekibi kyeyambisa etteeka lino, ne kindeetera okwegomba okwa buli ngeri. Noolwekyo awatali mateeka, ekibi kiba kifu.
Lakini dhambi jhakabhili nafasi kwa jhela amri na jhaletili mugati mwa nene khila aina jha kunoghela. Kwa ndabha dhambi bila sheria jhifwa.
9 Edda nali mulamu awatali mateeka, naye etteeka bwe lyajja, ekibi ne kiramuka, n’okufa ne nfa.
Nami najhele ne muomi apu hoti bila sheria, lakini bho jhihidili amri jhela, dhambi jhakabhili bhuomi, ninene nafwili.
10 Era ne nkizuula ng’etteeka eryali liteekwa okumpa obulamu, lye lyandetera okufa.
Amri jhela ambajho ngajhiletili bhuzima jhasanuiki kujha mauti kwa nene.
11 Ekibi kyeyambisa ekiragiro ekyo ne kinnimba, era ne kinzita.
Kwa ndabha dhambi jhakabhili naafasi kwa jhela amri na jhanikofili. Kup'etela amri jhela, jhanikhomili.
12 Noolwekyo amateeka matukuvu, era n’ekiragiro kitukuvu, kiruŋŋamya era kirungi.
Efyo sheria ndo takatifu, ni jhela amri ndo takatifu jha haki, ni jhinofu.
13 Kale ekirungi gye ndi, ate kye kyafuuka okufa? Nedda. Ekibi kye kyakozesa ekiragiro ekirungi kiryoke kinzite. Noolwekyo tulaba ekibi bwe kiri, ekibi ddala.
Nahu basi jhela jhajhijhele jhinofu jhajhele mauti kwa nene? Jhisijhi naha kamwe. Lakini dhambi, ili jhibhonekayi kujha dhambi hasa kup'et'ela jhela jhinofu, aletili mauti mugati mwa nene. Ejhe jhajhele kwamba kup'et'ela amri jhela, dhambi jhijhelayi jhibhibhi nesu.
14 Tumanyi ng’amateeka mwoyo, naye nze omuntu obuntu, natundibwa ng’omuddu nfugibwe ekibi.
Kwa ndabha tumanyili jha kujha sheria asili jhiake ndo muroho, lakini nene ne munu ghwa mumb'el'e. Nihemelisibhu pasi pa utumwa bhwa dhambi.
15 Kubanga kye nkola sikimanyi. Kye njagala si kye nkola, naye kye nkyawa kye nkola.
Ndabha lyanibhomba, nikalijhelebhwa lepi kinofu. Kwa kujha lela lyaniganili kubhomba, nikalibhombalepi ni lela lyanilidadili ndo lyanibhomba.
16 Newaakubadde nga nkola kye mmanyi nga kikyamu, nzikiriza ng’amateeka malungi.
Lakini kama nilibhombili lela lyanikalilonda lepi, nijhedek'elana ni sheria jha kujha sheria jhinofu.
17 Noolwekyo si nze nkola ebintu ebyo ebibi, wabula ekibi ekiri mu nze.
Lakini henu nene lepi nafsi jha nene jhanibhomba e'lu, bali ndo dhambi jhela jhajhatama mugati mwa nene.
18 Mmanyi nga mu nze, temuli kalungi n’akamu. Ne bwe njagala okukola ekirungi, tewali kirungi kye nkola.
Kwa ndabha nimanyili jha kujha mugati mwa nene, yaani mugati mu mb'el'e bhwa nene, litamalepi lijambo linofu. Kwa kujha tamaa jha lyalijhele linofu lijhele mugati mwa nene, lakini nikalibhomba lepi.
19 Ekirungi kye njagala okukola si kye nkola, naye ekibi kye saagala kye nkola.
Kwa ndabha linofu lela lyanilaganili nikalibhombi lepi bali lela liovu lyaniliganilepi ndo lyanibhomba.
20 Naye obanga kye saagala kye nkola, si nze mba nkikola, wabula ekibi ekibeera mu nze.
Henu kama nibhomba lela lyaniliganilepi, nene lepi binafsi, jhanibhomba, bali dhambi jhela jhajhitama mugati mwa nene.
21 Noolwekyo nzudde mu mateeka nga bwe njagala okukola ebirungi, ekibi kimbeera kumpi.
Nimanyili, kabhele, jhijhele kanuni mugati mwa nene jha kulonda kubhomba lyalijhele linofu, lakini bhuovu kweli bhujhele mugati mwa nene.
22 Mu nze mu muntu ow’omunda njagala nnyo okugondera amateeka ga Katonda.
Kwa ndabha nikajhihobhokela sheria jha K'yara kwa utu bhwa mugati.
23 Naye mu mubiri gwange gwonna, ndaba amateeka ag’enjawulo nga gawakana n’etteeka lya Katonda amagezi gange ge limanyi. Ekyo kinfuula omusibe w’amateeka ag’ekibi, ekikolera mu mubiri gwange.
Lakini nibhona kanuni jhajhijhele tofauti mu fiungo fya mbele bhwangu. Jhileta ngondo dhidi jha kanuni njipya mu luhala lwangu. Jhikanibh'eka nene kujha mataka kwa kanuni jha dhambi jhajhijhele mu fiungo fya mb'el'e bhwangu.
24 Nga ndi muntu munaku! Ani alindokola mu mubiri guno ogugenda okufa?
Nene ne munu ghwa kwilombosya! Niani jhaibetakuniokola ni mb'el'e obho bhwa mauti?
25 Kyokka Katonda yeebazibwe mu Yesu Kristo Mukama waffe. Nze kennyini mu birowoozo byange, ndi muddu w’amateeka ga Katonda era gwe mpeereza, newaakubadde ng’okwegomba kwange okw’omubiri, mpeereza etteeka ly’ekibi.
Lakini nibhombesya kwa K'yara kwa Yesu Kristu Bwana bhitu! Naha basi. Nene ne muene kwa luhala lwa jhoni nikajhitumikila sheria jha K'yara. Bali, kwa mb'el'e nikajhitumikila kanuni jha dhambi.
