रोमी 7
1 भाइ हो, के तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छैन (किनकि म व्यवस्था जान्नेहरूसित बोल्दै छु), कि व्यवस्थाले मानिस जीवित रहँदासम्म मात्र नियन्त्रण गर्छ?
Do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?
2 किनकि एक विवाहित स्त्री आफ्नो पति जीवित रहँदासम्म व्यवस्थाद्वारा बाँधिएकी हुन्छे, तर यदि उसको पति मर्यो भने ऊ त्यो विवाहको व्यवस्थाबाट मुक्त हुन्छे ।
For instance, a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is released from the law of marriage.
3 त्यस्तै, उसको पति जीवित हुँदा ऊ अर्को पुरुषसँग बसी भने, उसलाई व्यभिचारिणी स्त्री भनिनेछ । तर उसको पति मर्यो भने, ऊ त्यस व्यवस्थाबाट मुक्त हुन्छे, अनि अर्को पुरुषसँग बसी भने पनि ऊ व्यभिचारिणी हुँदिन ।
So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress, even if she marries another man.
4 त्यसैले, मेरा भाइहरू हो, तिमीहरू पनि ख्रीष्टको शरीरद्वारा व्यवस्थाको निम्ति मरेका थियौ । हामीले परमेश्वरको निम्ति फल फलाउन सकौँ भनेर तिमीहरू अर्कैसँग अर्थात् मृतकहरूबाट जीवित पारिनुभएकासँग एक हुन सक्यौ ।
Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
5 किनकि जब हामी शरीरमा थियौँ, व्यवस्थाद्वारा मृत्युको निम्ति फल फलाउन हाम्रा अङ्गहरूमा पापमय स्वभावहरू सक्रिय गराइए ।
For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.
6 तर अब हामी व्यवस्थाबाट स्वतन्त्र पारिएका छौँ । हामीलाई जुन कुराले बाँधेको थियो, त्यसको निम्ति हामी मरेका छौँ । हामीले पुरानो विधानमा होइन, तर पवित्र आत्माको नयाँपनमा सेवा गर्न सकौँ भनेर यसो भएको हो ।
But now, having died to what bound us, we have been released from the law, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
7 त्यसो भए, हामी के भनौँ त? के व्यवस्था आफैँ पाप हो? यस्तो कहिल्यै नहोस् । तथापि यदि व्यवस्था नभएको भए मैले कहिल्यै पाप जान्ने थिइनँ । किनकि यदि व्यवस्थाले, “तैँले लोभ नगर्” नभनेसम्म मैले लोभ के हो भनी कहिल्यै जान्ने थिइनँ ।
What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of coveting if the law had not said, “Do not covet.”
8 तर पापले यी आज्ञाद्वारा मौका पायो अनि ममा हर किसिमको अभिलाषा ल्यायो । किनकि व्यवस्थाविना पाप मरेतुल्य हुन्छ ।
But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
9 एक समय म व्यवस्थाविना जीवित थिएँ, तर जब आज्ञा आयो, पापले पुनः जीवन पायो र म मरेँ ।
Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10 जीवन ल्याउनुपर्ने आज्ञा मेरो निम्ति मृत्युमा परिणत हुन पुग्यो ।
So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
11 किनकि पापले यी आज्ञाद्वारा मौका छोप्यो र मलाई छल गर्यो । नियमहरूद्वारा यसले मलाई मार्यो ।
For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
12 त्यसैले, व्यवस्था पवित्र छ, अनि आज्ञा पवित्र, धार्मिक र असल छ ।
So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
13 त्यसैले, के जे असल छ त्यो मेरो निम्ति मृत्यु बन्यो? यस्तो कहिल्यै नहोस् । तर पापलाई पाप नै देखाउन सकियोस् भनी जे असल थियो त्यसद्वारा ममा मृत्यु ल्याइयो । आज्ञाद्वारा यस्तो भयो, ताकि पाप अत्यधिक पापमय बन्न सकोस् ।
Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14 हामी जान्दछौँ, कि व्यवस्था आत्मिक हो, तर म शारीरिक हुँ । म पापको दासत्वमा बेचिएको छु ।
We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
15 किनभने म जे गर्छु, त्यो म वास्तवमा बुझ्दिनँ । किनकि म जे गर्न चाहन्छु, त्यो म गर्दिनँ; अनि म जेलाई घृणा गर्छु, म त्यही गर्छु ।
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.
16 तर म जे चाहँदिनँ म त्यही गर्छु भने, व्यवस्था असल हो भनी म व्यवस्थासँग सहमत हुन्छु ।
And if I do what I do not want to do, I admit that the law is good.
17 तर अब यो गर्ने म होइन, तर ममा रहने पाप हो ।
In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
18 किनकि म जान्दछु, कि ममा अर्थात् मेरो शरीरमा कुनै पनि असल थोक बास गर्दैन । किनकि ममा असल गर्ने इच्छा छ, तर म यो गर्न सक्दिनँ ।
I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
19 किनकि मैले चाहेको असल थोक म गर्दिनँ, तर म जुन खराब कुरो गर्न चाहन्नँ, म त्यही गर्छु ।
For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do.
20 अब म जे गर्न चाहँदिनँ त्यही गर्छु भने, यो गरिरहने म होइन, तर ममा बास गर्ने पाप हो ।
And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21 तब मैले ममा असल गर्ने सिद्धान्त भेट्टाउँछु, तर ममा दुष्ट वास्तवमै उपस्थित भएको पाउँछु ।
So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
22 किनकि म भित्री मनुष्यत्वसँगै परमेश्वरको व्यवस्थामा आनन्द मनाउँछु ।
For in my inner being I delight in God’s law.
23 तर मैले मेरा अङ्गहरूमा फरक सिद्धान्त देख्छु । यसले मेरो मनको नयाँ सिद्धान्तसँग लड्छ । मेरा अङ्गहरूमा भएको सिद्धान्तद्वारा यसले मलाई पापको कैदी बनाउँछ ।
But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.
24 म दुःखि मानिस हुँ! मलाई यो मृत्युको शरीरबाट कसले छुटकारा देला?
What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?
25 तर हाम्रा प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टद्वारा परमेश्वरलाई धन्यवाद होस्! त्यसैले, म आफैँले मेरो मनले परमेश्वरको व्यवस्थाको सेवा गर्छु । तापनि शरीरले म पापको सिद्धान्तको सेवा गर्छु ।
Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
