Valumi 6
1 Tijova kyani hinu? Ndi tiyendelela kutama mukubuda muni ubwina wa Chapanga uyonjokeseka?
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 Hati padebe! Petijova ndava ya makakala ga kumbudila Chapanga gegavi mugati yitu tete ngati tifwili, wu, tiyendelela wuli kutama mukubuda?
Absolutely not. We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
3 Wu, mmanyi lepi ngati petabatiziwi tawungini na Kilisitu Yesu? Tabatiziwi na kuwungana nayu mu lifwa laki.
Or do you not know that all we who were immersed into Messiah Yeshua were immersed into his death?
4 Patabatiziwi tazikiwi pamonga nayu na kuwungana nayu mu lifwa laki, muni ngati Kilisitu cheayukili kuhuma lifwa kwa ukulu wa Dadi, mewawa na tete tihotola kutama muwumi wa mupya.
We were buried therefore with him through immersion to death, that just like Messiah was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
5 Muni, ngati tete tiwungini nimwene mulifwa ngati cheafwili mwene, mewawa tiwungana nayu mkuyukiswa ngati cheayukili mwene.
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6 Timmanyili ngati matendu gitu ga kadeni gavambiwi pamsalaba pamonga na Kilisitu, muni makakala ga kubuda gegavi mu higa yitu yihalabiswai, na tikotoka kuvya kangi vavanda va kubuda.
knowing this, that our old self 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 Ndava muni, mundu akafwayi ivya lepi pahi ya makakala ga kumkubudila Chapanga gegihenga lihengu mugati yitu.
For he who has died has been freed from sin.
8 Hinu, ngati tikafwai pamonga na Kilisitu, tisadika kuvya titama mewa pamonga na mwene.
But if we died with Messiah, we believe that we will also live with him;
9 Muni, timanyili ngati Kilisitu amalili kuyuka kuhuma kufwa namwene ifwa lepi kangi, mewa lifwa nakumtalalila kavili.
knowing that Messiah, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him.
10 Ndava afwili mala yimonga ndu, kubuda kuvi lepi na makakala kavili kwaki, na hinu mumi na itama pamonga Chapanga.
For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
11 Mewawa na nyenye mjivalangayi mfwili kwa malovi ga makakala ga kumbudila Chapanga na mlongoswa lepi kangi na kubuda, nambu chemwitama mu kuwungana na Chapanga kwa njila ya Kilisitu Yesu.
In the same way, consider yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Messiah Yeshua.
12 Hinu, kumbudila Chapanga kukoto kutalalila higa yinu yeyifwa, muni mkoto kuyidakila mnogo wa higa.
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13 Mewawa mkoto kuwusa hati chiwungu chinu chimonga cha higa ndava ya kumbudila Chapanga. Pahala paki, mujiwusai mwavene kwa Chapanga ngati vandu vevayukiswi kuhuma lifwa, mujiwusa mwavene kwa Chapanga ndava ya lihengu la kumganisa mwene.
Neither 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 Muni, kumbudila Chapanga kukoto kuvya na makakala panani yinu, muni nyenye mwilongoswa lepi na malagizu, nambu mwilongoswa na ubwina wa Chapanga.
For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.
15 Hinu, tijova wuli? Wu, tiyendelela kukita uhakau ndava tilongoswa lepi na malagizu nambu tilongoswa na ubwina wa Chapanga? Hati padebe!
What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? Absolutely not.
16 Mmanyi ngati mukajiwusayi mwavene ngati vavanda kumuyidakila mundu nunuyu, nyenye mwivya chakaka vavanda va mundu yula mwemukumuyidakila. Mkavyai vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga yati mmalikisila kulifwa, amala mkavya vavanda va kumuyidakila Chapanga yati mwivya vabwina palongolo yaki.
Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?
17 Nambu asengusiwayi Chapanga ndava muni hati ngati mwavi vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga, nambu hinu mkamula kwa mtima woha uchakaka wa gala goha gegavi mu mawuliwu gemwapokili.
But thanks be to God, that, whereas you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were entrusted.
18 Nyenye pemwagomboliwi kuhuma uvanda wa kumbudila Chapanga, mukavya vavanda va kuhenga geigana Chapanga.
Being made free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
19 Penapa nijova lepi malovi geginonopa nitumila malovi ga magono goha muni nyenye muhotola lepi kuniyelewa chenijova. Ngati kadeni chamwajiwusili kuvya vavanda va kubuda na uhakau, mewawa hinu mganikiwa mujiwusayi kuvya vavanda kuhenga gala geigana Chapanga muni munyambiswa.
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh, for as you presented your members as slaves to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as slaves to righteousness for sanctification.
20 Ndava muni pemwavili vavanda va kumbudila Chapanga mwakungiwi lepi kuhenga mambu gegakumganisa Chapanga.
For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
21 Hinu mwapatili chiyonjokesu choki magono gala ndava ya mambu gala gemwakitili na hinu mwikola soni? Ndava gala gemwakitili gileta lifwa!
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.
22 Nambu hinu mmalili kugombolewa kuhuma ku uvanda wa kumbudila Chapanga na muvi vavanda va Chapanga. Chiyonjokesu chemuvi nachu hinu Umsopi ndi wewileta wumi wa magono goha wangali mwishu. (aiōnios g166)
But now, being made free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit of sanctification, and the result of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
