Warumi 7
1 Waganja wangu, hamuvimani shilii shaniza kutakula, toziya mwawoseri hamuvimani kuusu malagaliru. Malagaliru gamkolamlima muntu shipindi pakawera mkomu.
Are you ignorant, brothers—for to those knowing law I speak—that the law has lordship over the man as long as he lives?
2 Mfanu, mdala yakayugitwi katatirwa na malagaliru shipindi shoseri mpalu gwakuwi pakawera mkomu, kumbiti yomberi pakahowa, shakapanu mdala ulii kalekeziwa kulawa mumalagaliru ga kuyugwa.
For the married woman to the living husband has been bound by law, and if the husband may die, she has been free from the law of the husband;
3 Su mdala ayu pakalikala na mpalu yumonga shipindi mpalu gwakuwi kankali mkomu, mdala ayu hawamshemi mundiyandiya. Kumbiti handa mpalu gwakuwi pakahowa, mdala ayu hapeni katatilwi mulilagalliru lya ndowa. Nayomberi pakayugwa na mpalu gwingi hapeni kashemwi mundiyandiya.
so then, the husband being alive, she will be called an adulteress if she may become another man’s; and if the husband may die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, having become another man’s.
4 Ntambu iraa ayi mwenga waganja wangu, mwenga viraa muwera kutali na malagaliru kupitira nshimba ya Kristu. Vinu muwera wakuwi, yomberi ndo yawamzyukisiyiti su tupati kumtendera lihengu Mlungu.
So that, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of the Christ, for your becoming another’s, who was raised up out of the dead, that we might bear fruit to God;
5 Toziya patuweriti tulikala kulawirana na lumatamata lya nshimba hera, lumatamata lwa vidoda pazinikwa na malagaliru, zitenditi lihengu munshimba zyetu, na woseri twenga tusokiti muupeleru wa kuhowa.
for when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, that [are] through the Law, were working in our members, to bear fruit to death;
6 Kumbiti vinu tuwera ulekeru kulawa mushibetubetu sha malagaliru, toziya tuhowa kwa shitwatira shilii shashitutenditi twenga wamanda. Twenga twankumtendera ndiri munjira ya makashu yayilembwa mumalagaliru, kumbiti munjira yasyayi ya Rohu.
and now we have ceased from the Law, that being dead in which we were held, so that we may serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of letter.
7 Hashi, su tutakuli handa malagaliru ndo vidoda? Ndala! Kumbiti ndo Malagaliru gantenditi neni kuvimana vidoda vyaviwera. Kumbiti pota Lilagaliru kulonga hangu, “Naguwera na lumatamata muvintu vyaviwera ndiri vyaku,” neni menuvimani ndiri.
What, then, will we say? The Law [is] sin? Let it not be! But I did not know sin except through law, for also the covetousness I had not known if the Law had not said:
8 Kumbiti vidoda vipatiti lupenyu lwa lagiru kusongoziya kila ntambu ya matamata zidoda mngati mwaneni. Pota malagaliru, vidoda shintu ndiri.
“You will not covet”; and sin having received an opportunity, through the command, worked in me all covetousness—for apart from law sin is dead.
9 Shipindi shimu neni weriti nuvimana ndiri malagaliru na neni weriti mkomu. Su nuvimaniti lilagaliru na ntenditi vidoda na neni weriti howa.
And I was alive apart from law once, and the command having come, sin revived, and I died;
10 Lilagaliru ali liweriti na nfiru ya kujega ukomu, kumbiti kwa neni lijega kuhowa.
and the command that [is] for life, this was found by me for death;
11 Toziya vidoda vitoliti lupenyu lyaluweriti mumalagaliru na vinzyangiti na kunaga.
for sin, having received an opportunity, through the command, deceived me, and through it, slew [me],
12 Su Lagiru lyeni ndo linanagala na malagaliru geni ndo mananagala, maheri na gaherepa.
so that the Law, indeed, [is] holy, and the command holy, and righteous, and good.
13 Hashi, shintu shiherepa shinjegera kuhowa? Ndala! Vidoda ndo vinjegera kuhowa kwa kutendera shintu shiherepa. Su kupitira malagaliru vidoda vilanguziwa kuwera vidoda nentu.
That which is good then, has it become death to me? Let it not be! But sin, that it might appear sin, through the good, working death to me, that sin might become exceedingly sinful through the command.
14 Tuvimana kuwera Malagaliru ndo ga shirohu, kumbiti neni gwa pasipanu. Neni wamuza kuwera mmanda gwa vidoda.
For we have known that the Law is spiritual, and I am fleshly, sold by sin;
15 Nuvimana ndiri shantenda, toziya ntenda ndiri shilii shanfira kutenda, kumbiti ntenda shilii shankalalira.
for that which I work, I do not acknowledge; for not what I will, this I practice, but what I hate, this I do.
16 Su payiwera ntenda shilii shanfira ndiri kutenda, ayi ilanguziya kuwera njimira Lilagaliru ndo liherepa.
And if what I do not will, this I do, I consent to the Law that [it is] good,
17 Su, neni ndiri yantenda shintu ashi, kumbiti vidoda vilii vyavilikala mngati mwaneni.
and now it is no longer I that work it, but sin dwelling in me,
18 Nuvimana kwahera shiherepa shoseri mngati mwaneni, ayi ndo toziya ya umuntu waneni. Tembera nfira kutenda shitwatira shiheri, weza ndiri kushitenda.
for I have known that there does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, good: for to will is present with me, and I do not find to work that which is right,
19 Weza ndiri kutenda shitwatira shiherepa shanfira kutenda, pa pakuwi nankutenda vitwatira vidoda vyanfira ndiri kutenda.
for the good that I will, I do not do; but the evil that I do not will, this I practice.
20 Su handa nankutenda shilii shanema kutenda, ayi ilanguziya kuwera naneni ndiri yantenda aga, kumbiti ndo vidoda vyaneni vyavilikala mngati mwaneni.
And if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that work it, but sin that is dwelling in me.
21 Su, nyambula kuwera shintu shitenda lihengu mngati mwaneni. Panfiriti kutenda shiheri shilii, nuliwona nankunsyagula shitwatira shidoda.
I find, then, the law, that when I desire to do what is right, the evil is present with me,
22 Mngati mumoyu mwaneni naganemelera malagaliru ga Mlungu.
for I delight in the Law of God according to the inward man,
23 Kumbiti mona shintu shimonga shitenda lihengu mngati mwaneni, shintu shilisingana na ntambu yanfira. Ayi intenda neni weri mmanda gwa malagaliru ga vidoda vyavitenda lihengu munshimba mwaneni.
and I behold another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin that [is] in my members.
24 Mhushu neni! Hashi, gaa hakanopoziyi kulawa mushimba ya vidoda avi vyavijega kuhalibisiwa?
A wretched man I [am]! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
25 Mayagashii Mlungu yakatenda goseri aga kupitira Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu! Hangu su, ndo ntambu ya neni namweni, Kwa mahala gangu nugatendera Malagaliru ga Mlungu, kumbiti kwa nshimba yaneni nankugatendera malagaliru ga vidoda.
I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord; so then, I myself indeed serve the Law of God with the mind, and with the flesh, the law of sin.
