Romans 7
1 Or don’t you know, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man for as long as he lives?
I ki bani, kelima, n maadi yeni yaaba n bani yiko, ki yiko suani o tuonli hali ki li fagi, o nisaalo yenma nni.
2 For the woman that has a husband is bound by law to the husband while he lives, but if the husband dies, she is discharged from the law of the husband.
L tie nani yiko n yi cabi o pua wan kuni o ja yeni, ama li sua nani k o ja kpe, o ji ki ye yeni yiko tili. Ya yiko kadagu n den taandi wani yeni o ja yeni ji ki suani.
3 So then if, while the husband lives, she is joined to another man, she would be called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is no adulteress, though she is joined to another man.
O ja da ya ye ki pia li miali, k o siedi ki kuni ja tiano, o tie conconli; ama o ja ya kpe, yiko ji pia nu o po, o ya kuni ja tiano, o ji ki tie conconli.
4 Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.
N naataani, li tie yeni i mɔ ya po, yaali n tie yiko po wani, i kpe li kuum n o, ki dugni yinba yeni klistu n bo taani ti gbannandi yeni, i ji pia i diedo, yua n yiedi bi tinkpiiba siigni, ki tin mɔ n ji fidi ki ya suani a tuona U Tienu po yeni.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.
Yen i mɔni, tin mɔn da den ye m kuuma gbannadn yeni, li yiko den kuandi ti ya maalbiidi n den caa yen ti m kuuma po.
6 But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.
Ama mɔlane, ti ji ñani yiko mabl n o, k dugni ti den kpe yeni yaali n den kubi ti dansaligi. Ti ji bu fidi ki sɔni yen U Tienu yeni m maalpanma yaali ki fuoŋanma ŋmagd ti, ki ji cedi m maalkpelima.
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”
Ti ji ba yedi be? Yiko tie bonbiili yaa? N n, ya yogunu k n bandi ti biidi ki dugni mi ñɔmaama po i. Tii den bani nunponli li bo ya ki tie ñɔmaama nni ka. Ki da pia nunponli a lielo po.
8 But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
Ti biid ji la o sanu k n ji pia li nunponli ŋanduna ne bona po kuli.
9 I was alive apart from the law once, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.
Yayogunu, ki da den bani yiko, n fo, ama min ji te gbadi mi ñɔmaama yayogunu, ki ti biidi yendi n yinyienu k n ji kpe.
10 The commandment which was for life, this I found to be for death;
mi ñɔmaama bo tie ki lan baa yeni li miali, ama ki min ya po, li ba mi kuuma.
11 for sin, finding occasion through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me.
Ki dugni, ti biidi la o sanu lan kani, ki tugi m ñɔmaama ki bɔndn nni k n kpe li ñɔmaama po.
12 Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, righteous, and good.
Yiko ji pia jɔngdi ba, ama m ñɔmaama ki pia tagiliba.
13 Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.
Yeni ki yaali n den ŋani yen ji ba yen mi kuuma? N n, lan ka. ti biidi n ba yenli. Ti biidi wuoni li bonŋanli ki baadi yen mi kuuma. Li tie yeni ki ti biidi wan yeni, i mɔni wan tie yaali ki mi ñɔmaama mɔ ji cedi ki ti biidi ji ŋan ki yabdi ki pendi.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am fleshly, sold under sin.
Ti bani ki yiko ñani U Tienu kani, ama min wani tie ya nulo ki bi kuabi ki ñan nni ti biidi nni ki ti biidi ji ŋa nni.
15 For I don’t understand what I am doing. For I don’t practice what I desire to do; but what I hate, that I do.
Ki dugni min ji bani min suani yaali. N suani min bua yaali ka, ama n suani min ki bua min sɔni yaali.
16 But if what I don’t desire, that I do, I consent to the law that it is good.
Li tuo k n sɔni min bo ki bua sɔni yaali. N bani ki li ki ŋani.
17 So now it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
Lan wani min mɔno ka suani lan, ya biidi n kubi n yeni, n cedi kin suani lan ya tuonli.
18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.
N bani k n ki ŋani, n bua li bonŋanli tiema, ama ki li nan pa yen ni.
19 For the good which I desire, I don’t do; but the evil which I don’t desire, that I practice.
N bua k min ya tie li bonŋanli k nan kan fidi ki tieni, ama ti biidi yaali k, n k bua yeni, n nan tiendi lani.
20 But if what I don’t desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
K n ya suani yaali k n bo ki bua min sɔni, min kan sɔnli ama ya biidi ye yen nni suani nni tuonli.
21 I find then the law that, while I desire to do good, evil is present.
N ji te la ki yaali ne n ye yen nni: n ya bua sɔni bonŋanli, n ji te yi juodi yeni bonbiili.
22 For I delight in God’s law after the inward person,
N bua ya yiko n ñan U Tienu kani.
23 but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.
Ama n gɔ lieli ye yen n. N yam n tuo ya yiko yen, ki cedi k n tie nani dansaligi yen, ki cɔln ti biidi yiko.
24 What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this death?
N tie cicagdaani paaa. ŋma n bu fabn nni. Ki ñani n gbannandi yaali bua wan kuan n mi kuuma nni.
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ, our Lord! So then with the mind, I myself serve God’s law, but with the flesh, sin’s law.
U Tienu n ga balgi. Wani baba n bu fidi k fabn nni ti yombidaano jesu klistu po kelima, n pali nni, n ŋua u Tienu yiko, qamaq n gbannad'n, n ŋua ti biidi yiko.
