< Romans 6 >

1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
Zvino tichatii? Ticharambira muchivi kuti nyasha dziwande here?
2 May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
Ngazvisadaro! Isu takafa kuchivi, ticharamba tichirarama sei machiri?
3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
Kana hamuzivi here kuti isu tese takabhabhatidzwa muna Kristu Jesu, takabhabhatidzwa murufu rwake?
4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
Naizvozvo takavigwa pamwe naye murufu nerubhabhatidzo; kuti sezvo Kristu akamutswa kubva kuvakafa nekubwinya kwaBaba, saizvozvo isuwo tifambe pautsva hweupenyu.
5 For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
Nokuti kana takadzvarwa pamwe pakufanana kwerufu rwake, asi tichadarowo pakumuka kwake;
6 knowing this, that our old man 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.
tichiziva izvi, kuti munhu wedu wekare wakarovererwa pamwe naye, kuti muviri wechivi uparadzwe, kuti isu tisachishumira chivi;
7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.
nokuti uyo wakafa wakasunungurwa pachivi.
8 But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him,
Zvino kana takafa pamwe naKristu, tinotenda kuti tichararamawo pamwe naye;
9 knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over him!
tichiziva kuti Kristu amutswa kubva kuvakafa haafizve; rufu haruchina simba pamusoro pake.
10 For the death that he died, he died to sin one time; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
Nokuti pakuti wakafa, wakafa kamwe kuchivi; zvino pakuti anorarama, anorarama kuna Mwari.
11 Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Saizvozvo nemwi zviverengei semakafa zvirokwazvo kuchivi, asi munorarama kuna Mwari naKristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
12 Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
Naizvozvo chivi ngachirege kutonga mumuviri wenyu unofa, kuti muchiteerere kuchiva kwacho;
13 Also, do not 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.
uye musapa mitezo yenyu ive midziyo yekusarurama kuchivi; asi muzvipe imwi kuna Mwari sevapenyu kubva kuvakafa, nemitezo yenyu ive midziyo yekururama kuna Mwari.
14 For sin will not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace.
Nokuti chivi hachizotongi pamusoro penyu; nokuti hamusi pasi pemurairo, asi pasi penyasha.
15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be!
Ko zvino? Tichatadza here, nokuti hatisi pasi pemurairo, asi pasi penyasha? Ngazvisadaro!
16 Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
Hamuzivi here kuti uyo wamunozvipa kwaari muve varanda vekumuteerera, muri varanda vaiye wamunoteerera; kana vechivi chinoisa kurufu, kana vekuteerera kunoisa kukururama?
17 But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
Asi Mwari ngaavongwe, kuti maiva varanda vechivi, asi mava kuteerera kubva pamoyo muenzaniso wedzidziso wamakakumikidzwa kwauri;
18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
uye masunungurwa kubva pachivi, makaitwa varanda vekururama.
19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
Ndinotaura nenzira yevanhu nekuda kweutera hwenyama yenyu; nokuti sezvamakapa mitezo yenyu kuva varanda kutsvina neuipi zvinoisa kune zvakaipa, saizvozvo ikozvino ipai mitezo yenyu kuva varanda vekururama kunoisa kuutsvene.
20 For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
Nokuti pamaiva varanda vechivi, makange makasununguka pakururama.
21 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.
Naizvozvo maiva nechibereko chei panguva iyo pazvinhu izvo zvamava kunyadziswa nazvo ikozvino? Nokuti mugumo wezvinhu izvo rufu.
22 But now, being made free from sin and having become servants of God, you have your fruit of sanctification and the result of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Asi ikozvino zvamakasunungurwa pachivi, mukaitwa varanda kuna Mwari, mune chibereko chenyu chinoisa kuutsvene, uye mugumo upenyu husingaperi. (aiōnios g166)
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
Nokuti mubairo wechivi rufu, asi chipo chenyasha chaMwari upenyu husingaperi muna Kristu Jesu Ishe wedu. (aiōnios g166)
