< रोमी 6 >
1 हामी अब के भनौँ त? के अनुग्रह प्रशस्त होस् भनेर हामीले पाप गरिरहने त?
What, then, shall we say? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?
2 यस्तो कहिल्यै नहोस् । हामी जो पापप्रति मर्यौँ हामी यसमा कसरी जिउने?
It can not be. How shall we that are dead to sin, live any longer in it?
3 के जतिलाई ख्रीष्ट येशूमा बप्तिस्मा दिइएका छन् उनीहरूलाई उहाँको मृत्युमा बप्तिस्मा दिइएका छन् भन्ने तिमीहरू जान्दैनौ?
Know you not that as many of us as were immersed into Christ Jesus, were immersed into his death?
4 हामी बप्तिस्माद्वारा मृत्युमा उहाँसँगै गाडियौँ । ताकि जसरी ख्रीष्ट पिताको महिमाद्वारा मृतकहरूबाट जीवित पारिनुभयो, त्यसरी नै हामी जीवनको नवीनतामा हिँड्न सकौँ ।
Therefore, we are buried with him, by immersion, into death, that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so also we should walk in a new life.
5 किनकि यदि हामी उहाँको मृत्युको स्वरूपमा एक भएका छौँ भने हामी उहाँको पुनरुत्थानमा पनि एक हुनेछौँ ।
For if we have become united to him by the likeness of his death, we shall certainly be united to him by the likeness of his resurrection;
6 हामी जन्दछौँ, कि हाम्रो पुरानो मनुष्यत्वलाई उहाँसँगै क्रुसमा टाँगिएको थियो, ताकि पापको शरीरलाई नाश गर्न सकियोस्; ताकि हामी पापको दास बन्न नपरोस् ।
knowing this, that our former man has been crucified with him, in order that the sinful body may be deprived of its power, so that we should no longer serve sin:
7 जो मरेको छ, पापको सम्बन्धमा त्यसलाई धर्मी घोषित गरिन्छ ।
for he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 तर यदि हामी ख्रीष्टसँग मरेका छौँ भने, हामी विश्वास गर्छौं, कि हामी पनि उहाँसँगै जिउनेछौँ ।
Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;
9 हामी जान्दछौँ, कि ख्रीष्ट मृतकबाट जीवित पारिनुभएको छ र अब उहाँ मृत हुनुहुन्न । अब मृत्युले उहाँमाथि राज्य गर्दैन ।
because we know that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more; death has dominion over him no longer;
10 मृत्युको विषयमा उहाँ पापको लागि मर्नुभयो, उहाँ एकै पल्ट हामी सबैका लागि मर्नुभयो । तथापि जुन जीवन उहाँ जिउनुहुन्छ, त्यो उहाँले परमेश्वरको निम्ति जिउनुहुन्छ ।
for, as it regards his dying, he, once for all, died to sin; but as it regards his living, he lives to God.
11 त्यसै गरी, तिमीहरूले पनि पापको निम्ति मरेको, तर ख्रीष्ट येशूमा परमेश्वरमा जीवित ठान्नुपर्छ ।
So also do you count yourselves as dead indeed to sin, but as living to God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.
12 त्यसकारण, तिमीहरूको मरणशील शरीरमा पापलाई राज्य गर्न नदेओ, ताकि तिमीहरूले त्यसको अभिलाषालाई मान्न परोस् ।
Therefore, let not sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey it;
13 आफ्नो शरीरका अङ्गहरूलाई अधार्मिकताका साधनहरूको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्न नदेओ । तर आफैँलाई परमेश्वरको निम्ति अहिले जिइरहेको मृतकको रूपमा देओ । अनि आफ्नो शरीरका अङ्गहरूलाई परमेश्वरको लागि धार्मिक साधनको रूपमा प्रयोग गर्नलाई देओ ।
and present not your members to sin, as instruments of unrighteousness: but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead; and your members to God, as instruments of righteousness.
14 पापलाई आफूमाथि राज्य गर्न नदेओ । किनकि तिमीहरू व्यवस्थामा छैनौ, तर अनुग्रहमा छौ ।
For sin shall not have dominion over you; for you are not under law, but under grace.
15 त्यसो भए के त? के हामी व्यवस्थामा छैनौँ, तर अनुग्रहमा छौँ भनेर हामी पाप गरौँ त? कहिल्यै यस्तो नहोस् ।
What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? It can not be.
16 के तिमीहरू जान्दैनौ, जसको निम्ति तिमीहरूले आफैँलाई नोकरको रूपमा दिन्छौ त्यसप्रति तिमीहरू आज्ञाकारी हुनुपर्छ अर्थात् त्यसको आज्ञा पालन गर्नुपर्छ? यो सत्य हो, कि या तिमीहरू मृत्युमा पुर्याउने पापका नोकरहरू हौ या धार्मिकतामा पुर्याउने आज्ञाकारिताका सेवकहरू हौ ।
Know you not, that to whom you present yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey, whether of sin that leads to death, or of obedience that leads to righteousness?
17 तर परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद होस्! तिमीहरू पापका नोकरहरू थियौ, तर तिमीहरूले आफूलाई दिइएको शिक्षाको ढाँचालाई आफ्नो हृदयदेखि नै पालन गर्यौ ।
But thanks be to God, that though you were the servants of sin, yet you have obeyed from the heart the form of teaching, in which you have been instructed;
18 तिमीहरूलाई पापबाट छुटकारा दिइएको छ र तिमीहरूलाई धार्मिकताको सेवक बनाइएको छ ।
and being made free from sin, you have become the servants of righteousness.
19 म तिमीहरूको शरीरको कमजोरीको कारणले बोल्ने मानिसझैँ बोल्छु । किनकि जसरी तिमीहरूले आफ्नो शरीरका अङ्गहरू अशुद्धता र दुष्टका नोकरहरूको रूपमा दियौ; त्यसरी नै अब शुद्धिकरणको निम्ति आफ्ना शरीरका अङ्गहरूलाई धार्मिकताको सेवकको रूपमा देओ ।
I speak of what is common among men, oil account of the weakness of your flesh: for as you have presented your members as servants to uncleanness, and to lawlessness, in order to lawlessness, so now present your members as servants to righteousness, in order to holiness.
20 किनकि तिमीहरू पापका दासहरू हुँदा, तिमीहरू धार्मिकताबाट स्वतन्त्र थियौ ।
For when you were the servants of sin, you were free with respect to righteousness.
21 त्यति बेला अहिले तिमीहरू लज्जित हुनुपर्ने थोकहरूका कस्ता-कस्ता फलहरू तिमीहरूसित थिए? किनकि ती कुराहरूको परिणाम मृत्यु हो ।
What fruit, therefore, had you at that time, in those things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
22 तर अब तिमीहरूलाई पापबाट मुक्त गराइएको छ, अनि परमेश्वरको दास बनाइएको छ र तिमीहरूसित शुद्धिकरणको फल छ । (aiōnios )
But now, since you have been made free from sin, and have become servants to God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, eternal life. (aiōnios )
23 किनकि पापको ज्याला मृत्यु हो, तर परमेश्वरको सित्तैँको वरदानचाहिँ हाम्रा प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टमा अनन्त जीवन हो । (aiōnios )
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios )
