Men Rom 7
1 DE ri ai kan, komail sota asa — i kin peidok ren me asa kapung o — me kapung o kin poedi aramas arain a memaur?
KNOW ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law, ) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
2 Pwe li amen, me a warok mia, kin kaupingki kapung en a warok arain a memaur. A ma a warok melar, a muei sanger kapung en a warok.
For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
3 A ma a pan paudeki amen ol ni a warok memaur, a pan adaneki kamal amen; a ma a warok melar, a muei sanger kapung, ap sota pan kamal amen, ma a pan pur ong amen ol.
So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
4 Ari ri ai kan, iduen pil komail mekilar kapung o pweki war en Kristus, pwen wiala nain amen, iet, me iasadar sang ren me melar akan, pwen kaparapar ong Kot.
Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
5 Pwe ni at kekeideki tiak en pali uduk, inong en dip me kelail nan kokon atail pweki kapung o, pwen kaparapar ong mela.
For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
6 A met kitail muei sanger kapung o, pwe sal pat ong mela olar, pwe kitail en papa ong tiak kap en ngen, a kaidin ong tiak maring en inting.
But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
7 Ari, da me kitail en inda? Me dip kapung o? O so! A i pan sasa dip, ma so kapung. Pwe i pan sasa duen inong sued, ma kapung so kalok kidar: Koe der norok!
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 A dip kadiarok kidar kusoned, ap kainong ong ia song en inong sued karos, pwe ma sota kapung dip mela.
But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
9 Pwe mas o i sota mi pan kapung, ap mamaureta, a kusoned lao mia, dip ai ap diarokadar.
For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
10 A ngai melar; kusoned, me loki dong ia, pwe i en maure kida, kare ong ia mela.
And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
11 Pwe dip kadiarok kidar kusoned liapai ia dar, ap kame ia lar.
For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
12 Ari, kapung o me saraui o kusoned me saraui, a pung o mau.
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13 A iaduen me mau kot kare ong ia mela? O so! A dip en sansale kida me kamau o ni a kare ong ia mela, pwe dip en sansale kida kusoned.
Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
14 Pwe kitail asa, me kapung o me ngenin, a ngai me uduken o netilang dip.
For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15 Pwe i sota asa, da me i en wia. Pwe kaidin me i mauki, me i kin wiada, a me i kin suedeki, iei me i kin wia.
For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 Ari, ma i kin wiada, me i kang wia, nan i kin kasansaleda, me kapung me mau.
If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 A ma i wiadar, me i sota men wia, kaidin ngai me wiadar, a dip me mimi lol i.
Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 Pwe i asa, me sota mau kot mi lol i nan uduk ai, pwe i kin men wiada me mau, a en angada me pung i sota kak ong.
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh, ) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 Pwe me mau o, me i men wiada, i sota kin kapwaida, a me sued, me i kang, i me i kin wiada.
For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 A ma i wiada, me i so men wiada, kaidin ngai me wiada, a dip me mi lol i.
Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 Iet me kapung kadiarok ong ia: Ni ai men wiada me mau, me sued mimi re i.
I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 Pwe i kin mauki kapung en Kot pali lol en aramas.
For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 I ap diaradar eu kapung ni ai kokon akan, me kin palian kapung en loli, ap kalua ia di pan kapung en dip, me mi nan ai kokon akan.
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O ngai aramas luet amen! Is me pan kamaio wei ia sang ni war mela wet!
O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I danke Kot pweki Iesus Kristus atail Kaun. Nan lol i i kin papang kapung en Kot, a ni pali uduk kapung en dip.
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
