Roma 6
1 I yaghari tima bellu? tili ubun in su na lapi bara ubolu Kutellẹ tinan gbardang ghe?
To what conclusion, then, shall we come? Are we to persist in sinning in order that the grace extended to us may be the greater?
2 nauwa sonanin ba. Arik a lena tinna kuzu nin nidowo na lapi?
No, indeed; how shall we who have died to sin, live in it any longer?
3 Naiyiru oh ingbradang na le na ina ubaptisma nami ligowe ni kristi Yisu iwa suminuubatisma nani udu ulai ba?
And do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
4 I wa kassu nari ninghe kuh in baptisma nannyan ku, nafor na iwa fiya kirsti nanere arik wang ma chinu nan nyan in lai upese,
Well, then, we by our baptism were buried with Him in death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from among the dead by the Father's glorious power, we also should live an entirely new life.
5 timunuati nin ghe nafo nin kulme tima kuru timunu ati nin ghe nin fitu me.
For since we have become one with Him by sharing in His death, we shall also be one with Him by sharing in His resurrection.
6 Tiyeru nene iwa bana kidowo bite nin ghe barn, inan molo kinanzang kin kulapi
This we know--that our old self was nailed to the cross with Him, in order that our sinful nature might be deprived of its power, so that we should no longer be the slaves of sin;
7 Ulena aku aso unan sali kulapi kiti kulapi.
for he who has paid the penalty of death stands absolved from his sin.
8 Asa tiku nin Kirsti, tiyinna ti ma kuru tiso ligowe nin ghe.
But, seeing that we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him;
9 Ti yiru anfiya kisti ku nan nya kissek tutung na aduu nan nya nan kul ba. Naukul du nin likara kitime ba
because we know that Christ, having come back to life, is no longer liable to die.
10 Bara ukule na awaku kiti kulapi, awa ku urumari chas bara vat titun ulai na adimun asosin bara Kutellẹ-ari.
Death has no longer any power over Him. For by the death which He died He became, once for all, dead in relation to sin; but by the life which He now lives He is alive in relation to God.
11 Anun wang; yiran ayimine anan kul kulapi in lon likot anan lai kite Kutellẹ nin Kirsti Yisa.
In the same way you also must regard yourselves as dead in relation to sin, but as alive in relation to God, because you are in Christ Jesus.
12 Bara nanin niwa yinin kulapi nodin nidowo mine nin kul ba bara iwa yinin nin ntok kidowo
Let not Sin therefore reign as king in your mortal bodies, causing you to be in subjection to their cravings;
13 Ni wa ni niti niti dowo mine kiti kulapi iso imongkata kulap, ba anun Kutellẹ nidowo min, nafo ana nuzu nannya niti niti ulam bara Kutell.
and no longer lend your faculties as unrighteous weapons for Sin to use. On the contrary surrender your very selves to God as living men who have risen from the dead, and surrender your several faculties to God, to be used as weapons to maintain the right.
14 Ni wa yinin alapi se likara kitene mine ba, bar na anun du sa in kana, na ti di nan nyan duka ba bara ti di nan nyan mbolu Kutellẹ.
For Sin shall not be lord over you, since you are subjects not of Law, but of grace.
15 Anin iyang? tili ubu n nin na lapi bara na ti du nan nyan duka ba barna ti di nan nyan mbolu Kutellẹ? Na uwa so nanib.
Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!
16 Na iyiru ule na i nakpa atimine, nan nya lichin in lanzu in liru iso achin in le na idin lanzu ulirume sakulapi udu uku, sa ulanzu inliru udu anan sali na lapia?
Do you not know that if you surrender yourselves as bondservants to obey any one, you become the bondservants of him whom you obey, whether the bondservants of Sin (with death as the result) or of Duty (resulting in righteousness)?
17 Vat nani liburi libo kiti Kutellẹ, I wa di achin kulap, ina nin yinna nin nibinai udursuzu kiti kanga na ina ni minu.
But thanks be to God that though you were once in thraldom to Sin, you have now yielded a hearty obedience to that system of truth in which you have been instructed.
18 Ina nutun munu nan nya tikanchi kulapi, ina ni so achin fiwu Kutellẹ. 19Indin su uliru nafo unit nin sali likara nidowomine. Nafo na ina nidowo mine nafo achin lisosin linanzang linanzan. Nene nakpan nitiniti nidowo mine nafo achin infiwu Kutellẹ nan nya lisosin limang.
You were set free from the tyranny of Sin, and became the bondservants of Righteousness--
19 kubi kona iwadi achin kulafi na iwa di nan nya na nit alauba.
your human infirmity leads me to employ these familiar figures--and just as you once surrendered your faculties into bondage to Impurity and ever-increasing disregard of Law, so you must now surrender them into bondage to Righteousness ever advancing towards perfect holiness.
20 Ku yapin kunatari iwa dumun kube nan nya nimon ile na ne nene idin lanzu inchin muna?
For when you were the bondservants of sin, you were under no sort of subjection to Righteousness.
21 Bara kumat ni leli uwonne vat ukulari
At that time, then, what benefit did you get from conduct which you now regard with shame? Why, such things finally result in death.
22 Nafo nene na na inan nutun munu tikanchi kulapi inanin so achin Kutelle, nono kumat mine in so nin lau tutun imalin mine ulai sa ligan. (aiōnios g166)
But now that you have been set free from the tyranny of Sin, and have become the bondservants of God, you have your reward in being made holy, and you have the Life of the Ages as the final result. (aiōnios g166)
