Romans 7
1 Or are ye ignorant, brothers (for I speak to men who know the law), that the law has dominion over the man for as long a time as he lives?
Au mumanyilepi bhalongobhangu (kwa kujha nilongela ni bhanu ambabho bhajhimanyili sheria), kwamba sheria jhikan'tabhwala munu pa ijha hai?
2 For the woman under authority to the living husband has been bound by law, but if the husband should die, she has been released from the law of the husband.
Kwandabha n'dala jha agegikibhu akhongibhu ni sheria kwa jhola ngwana munu paijha muomi, lakini akajhelayi ngwanamunu afuili, ibetakujha ajhe huru kuhoma sheria jha ndobho.
3 So then, of the living husband, she will be called an adulteress if she becomes to another man, but if the husband should die, she is free from the law, for her not to be an adulteress having become to another man.
Henu basi, bho ngwanamunu akona muomi, ni muene itama ni n'gosi jhongi, ibetakukutibhwa mzinzi. Lakini ikajhiajhi ngwanamunu afuili, ajhe huru dhidi jha sheria, efyo ibetalepi kujha mzinzi ikajhiajhi igenda ni n'gosi jhongi.
4 Therefore, my brothers, ye also became dead to the law through the body of Christ in order for ye to become to another, to him who was raised from the dead, so that we would bear fruit to God.
Henu, bhalongobhangu, muenga kabhele mwajhele mwe bhafu kwa sheria kwa njela jha mb'el'e ghwa Kristu. Jhijhe naha ili mukabhayi kuunganisibhwa ni jhongi, kwa muene ambajhe afunulibhu kuhoma kwa bhafu ili tubhwesiajhi kun'hogolela K'yara matunda.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the passions of the sins were working in our body-parts (through the law) in order to bear fruit to death.
Kwa ndabha bho tujhele mu hali jha mb'el'e, tamaa sya dhambi syajhumuiki mu fiungo fya tete kwa njela jha sheria ni kujhihogolela mauti matunda.
6 But now we have been released from the law, having died to what we were held, so as for us to serve in newness of spirit, and not in oldness of a document.
Lakini henu tubhopolibhu kuhoma mu sheria. Tujhifwelili hali jhela jhatubelili. Ili tete tukabhayi kutumika mu hali jipya jha Roho, ni tete mu hali muandi jha lijhandiku.
7 What will we say then? The law is sin? May it not happen! Yet I did not know sin except through law. For likewise I would not have known lust, if the law did not say, Thou shall not covet.
Tujobhajhi bhuli henu? Sheria ndo dhambi? La hasha. Hata naha nganijhimanyilepi dhambi, ngajhibeli kujha kwa njela jha sheria. Kwa kujha nganilimanyilepi kunoghela kama sheria ngajhijobhi lepi, “Usinogheli.”
8 But sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, wrought in me every evil desire, for apart from law sin is dead.
Lakini dhambi jhakabhili nafasi kwa jhela amri na jhaletili mugati mwa nene khila aina jha kunoghela. Kwa ndabha dhambi bila sheria jhifwa.
9 And I was alive once apart from law, but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
Nami najhele ne muomi apu hoti bila sheria, lakini bho jhihidili amri jhela, dhambi jhakabhili bhuomi, ninene nafwili.
10 And I found to me, the commandment being for life, this is for death.
Amri jhela ambajho ngajhiletili bhuzima jhasanuiki kujha mauti kwa nene.
11 For sin, having taken opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.
Kwa ndabha dhambi jhakabhili naafasi kwa jhela amri na jhanikofili. Kup'etela amri jhela, jhanikhomili.
12 So the law is indeed holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.
Efyo sheria ndo takatifu, ni jhela amri ndo takatifu jha haki, ni jhinofu.
13 Has therefore what is good become death to me? May it not happen! Instead, it is sin, so that it might be revealed, sin working death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment sin might become sinful to extreme.
Nahu basi jhela jhajhijhele jhinofu jhajhele mauti kwa nene? Jhisijhi naha kamwe. Lakini dhambi, ili jhibhonekayi kujha dhambi hasa kup'et'ela jhela jhinofu, aletili mauti mugati mwa nene. Ejhe jhajhele kwamba kup'et'ela amri jhela, dhambi jhijhelayi jhibhibhi nesu.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, having been sold under sin.
Kwa ndabha tumanyili jha kujha sheria asili jhiake ndo muroho, lakini nene ne munu ghwa mumb'el'e. Nihemelisibhu pasi pa utumwa bhwa dhambi.
15 For I do not understand what I do, for I do not do this that I want, but what I hate, this I do.
Ndabha lyanibhomba, nikalijhelebhwa lepi kinofu. Kwa kujha lela lyaniganili kubhomba, nikalibhombalepi ni lela lyanilidadili ndo lyanibhomba.
16 But if I do this that I do not want, I agree with the law that it is good.
Lakini kama nilibhombili lela lyanikalilonda lepi, nijhedek'elana ni sheria jha kujha sheria jhinofu.
17 But now I no longer perform it, but the sin dwelling in me.
Lakini henu nene lepi nafsi jha nene jhanibhomba e'lu, bali ndo dhambi jhela jhajhatama mugati mwa nene.
18 For I know that good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh, for to will is present in me, but to do the good, I find not.
Kwa ndabha nimanyili jha kujha mugati mwa nene, yaani mugati mu mb'el'e bhwa nene, litamalepi lijambo linofu. Kwa kujha tamaa jha lyalijhele linofu lijhele mugati mwa nene, lakini nikalibhomba lepi.
19 For I do not do good that I want, instead, wrong that I do not want, this I do.
Kwa ndabha linofu lela lyanilaganili nikalibhombi lepi bali lela liovu lyaniliganilepi ndo lyanibhomba.
20 But if I do this that I do not want, I no longer perform it, but sin dwelling in me.
Henu kama nibhomba lela lyaniliganilepi, nene lepi binafsi, jhanibhomba, bali dhambi jhela jhajhitama mugati mwa nene.
21 Consequently I find the law in my wanting to do good, that evil is present in me.
Nimanyili, kabhele, jhijhele kanuni mugati mwa nene jha kulonda kubhomba lyalijhele linofu, lakini bhuovu kweli bhujhele mugati mwa nene.
22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inner man,
Kwa ndabha nikajhihobhokela sheria jha K'yara kwa utu bhwa mugati.
23 but I see a different law in my body-parts, warring against the law of my mind, and taking me captive in the law of sin, which is in my body-parts.
Lakini nibhona kanuni jhajhijhele tofauti mu fiungo fya mbele bhwangu. Jhileta ngondo dhidi jha kanuni njipya mu luhala lwangu. Jhikanibh'eka nene kujha mataka kwa kanuni jha dhambi jhajhijhele mu fiungo fya mb'el'e bhwangu.
24 I am a wretched man. Who will rescue me out of the body of this death?
Nene ne munu ghwa kwilombosya! Niani jhaibetakuniokola ni mb'el'e obho bhwa mauti?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then, I of myself in the mind indeed serve a law of God, but in the flesh a law of sin.
Lakini nibhombesya kwa K'yara kwa Yesu Kristu Bwana bhitu! Naha basi. Nene ne muene kwa luhala lwa jhoni nikajhitumikila sheria jha K'yara. Bali, kwa mb'el'e nikajhitumikila kanuni jha dhambi.
