< Romana 6 >
1 Inona ary no holazaintsika? Mbola hitoetra amin’ ny ota ihany va isika hitomboan’ ny fahasoavana?
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 Sanatria izany! Hataontsika izay efa maty ny amin’ ny ota ahoana no ho velona aminy ihany?
God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Tsy fantatrareo va fa na iza na iza isika no efa natao batisa ho amin’ i Kristy Jesosy dia natao batisa ho amin’ ny fahafatesany?
Know all of you not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Koa niara-nalevina taminy tamin’ ny batisa ho amin’ ny fahafatesana isika, mba ho tahaka ny nananganana an’ i Kristy tamin’ ny maty tamin’ ny voninahitry ny Ray no handehanantsika kosa amin’ ny fiainam-baovao.
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 Fa raha nampiraisina taminy tamin’ ny endriky ny fahafatesany isika, dia ho tahaka izany koa amin’ ny fitsanganany;
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 fa fantatsika fa ny toetsika taloha dia niaraka nohomboana taminy hanimbana ny tenan’ ny ota, mba tsy hanompoantsika ny ota intsony.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 Fa izay efa maty dia afaka amin’ ny ota.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Ary raha niara-maty tamin’ i Kristy isika, dia mino fa hiara-belona aminy koa isika;
Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 ary fantatsika fa rehefa nitsangana tamin’ ny maty Kristy, dia tsy maty intsony Izy; tsy manan-kery aminy intsony ny fahafatesana.
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death has no more dominion over him.
10 Fa ny amin’ ny nahafatesany, dia maty ny amin’ ny ota indray mandeha Izy; fa ny amin’ ny ahavelomany kosa, dia velona ho an’ Andriamanitra Izy.
For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he lives, he lives unto God.
11 Ary aoka ho tahaka izany koa ianareo, ka ny tenanareo dia ataovy ho efa maty ny amin’ ny ota, fa velona ho an’ Andriamanitra ao amin’ i Kristy Jesosy.
Likewise reckon all of you also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
12 Koa aza avela ny ota hanjaka amin’ ny tenanareo mety maty hanarahanareo ny filany;
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that all of you should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13 ary aza manolotra ny momba ny tenanareo ho amin’ ny ota ho fiadian’ ny tsi-fahamarinana; fa atolory ny tenanareo ho an’ Andriamanitra, toy ny efa maty nefa velona, ary ny momba ny tenanareo ho fiadian’ ny fahamarinana ho an’ Andriamanitra.
Neither yield all of you your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14 Fa ny ota tsy hanan-kery aminareo; fa tsy mba ambanin’ ny lalàna ianareo, fa ambanin’ ny fahasoavana.
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for all of you are not under the law, but under grace.
15 Ahoana ary? hanota va isika, saingy tsy ambanin’ ny lalàna, fa ambanin’ ny fahasoavana? Sanatria izany!
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Tsy fantatrareo va fa raha manolo-tena ho mpanompo ianareo na ho an’ iza na ho an’ iza, dia mpanompon’ izay arahinareo ianareo, na ny ota ho amin’ ny fahafatesana, na ny fanarahana ho amin’ ny fahamarinana?
Know all of you not, that to whom all of you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants all of you are to whom all of you obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 Ary isaorana anie Andriamanitra, fa na dia efa mpanompon’ ny ota aza ianareo, ny fonareo dia efa nanaraka ny fomban’ ny fampianarana izay nanolorana anareo;
But God be thanked, that all of you were the servants of sin, but all of you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
18 ary rehefa natao afaka tamin’ ny ota ianareo, dia tonga mpanompon’ ny fahamarinana.
Being then made free from sin, all of you became the servants of righteousness.
19 Miteny araka ny fanaon’ ny olona aho noho ny fahalemen’ ny nofonareo; fa tahaka ny nanoloranareo ny momba ny tenanareo ho mpanompon’ ny fahalotoana sy ny tsi-fanarahan-dalàna hahatanteraka ny tsi-fanarahan-dalàna, dia mba atolory ankehitriny toy izany koa ny momba ny tenanareo ho mpanompon’ ny fahamarinana hahatanteraka ny fahamasinana.
I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as all of you have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 Fa fony mpanompon’ ny ota ianareo, dia afaka tamin’ ny fahamarinana.
For when all of you were the servants of sin, all of you were free from righteousness.
21 Inona ary no vokatra azonareo fahiny tamin’ izay zavatra mahamenatra anareo ankehitriny? fa fahafatesana no hiafaran’ izany zavatra izany.
What fruit had all of you then in those things whereof all of you are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 Fa ankehitriny, rehefa natao afaka tamin’ ny ota ianareo ka efa tonga mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, dia manana ny vokatrareo ho amin’ ny fahamasinana, ary ny farany dia fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios )
But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, all of you have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. (aiōnios )
23 Fa fahafatesana no tambin’ ny ota; ary fiainana mandrakizay no fanomezam-pahasoavana avy amin’ Andriamanitra ao amin’ i Kristy Jesosy Tompontsika. (aiōnios )
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (aiōnios )
