Romans 6
1 What then shall we say? are we still to continue in sin that favour may abound?
Kva skal me då segja? Skal me halda fram i syndi, so nåden kann verta dess større?
2 Far be it! we who have died unto sin, how, any longer, shall we live therein?
Nei, langt ifrå! Me som er avdøyde frå syndi, kor skulde me endå liva i henne?
3 Or know ye not that, we, as many as were immersed into Christ [Jesus], into his death were immersed?
Eller veit de ikkje at alle me som vart døypte til Kristus Jesus, me vart døypte til hans daude?
4 We were, therefore, buried together with him through our immersion into his death, in order that—just as Christ was raised from among the dead through the glory of the Father, so, we also, in newness of life should walk.
Me vart soleis gravlagde med honom ved dåpen til hans daude, for liksom Kristus vart uppvekt frå dei daude ved Faderens herlegdom, so skal me og ferdast i ein ny livnad.
5 For, if we have come to be grown together in the likeness of his death, certainly, in that of his resurrection also, shall we be.
For hev me vorte sameina med honom i likskapen med dauden hans, so skal me og verta det i likskapen med uppstoda hans,
6 Of this taking note—that, our old man, was crucified together with him in order that the sinful body might be made powerless, that we should, no longer, be in servitude to sin;
då me veit dette, at vårt gamle menneskje vart krossfest med honom av so synd-likamen skulde verta til inkjes, so me ikkje lenger skal tena syndi;
7 For, he that hath died, hath become righteously acquitted from his sin.
for den som er daud, han er rettferdiggjort frå syndi.
8 Now, if we have died together with Christ, we believe that we shall also live together with him;
Men døydde me med Kristus, so trur me at me og skal liva med honom,
9 Knowing that, Christ having been raised from among the dead, no more dieth, —death, over him, no more, hath lordship, —
av di me veit at Kristus ikkje døyr meir sidan han er uppvekt frå dei daude; dauden hev ikkje lenger vald yver honom.
10 For, in that he died, unto sin, died he once for all, but, in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
For dauden sin, den døydde han ein gong for syndi, men livet sitt, det liver han for Gud.
11 So, ye also, be reckoning yourselves to be—dead indeed unto sin, but, alive unto God in Christ Jesus.
Soleis skal de og rekna dykk daude for syndi, men livande for Gud i Kristus Jesus.
12 Let not sin, therefore, reign in your death-doomed body, that ye should be obedient to its covetings;
Lat difor ikkje syndi råda i dykkar døyelege likam, so de lyder lysterne hans!
13 Neither be presenting your members as weapons of unrighteousness unto sin, but present yourselves unto God as though alive from among the dead, and your members as weapons of righteousness unto God;
Og bjod ikkje heller fram lemerne dykkar åt syndi til våpn for urettferd, men bjod dykk sjølve fram åt Gud som upplivna frå daude, og lemerne dykkar åt Gud til våpn for rettferd!
14 For, sin, over you, shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under favour.
For syndi skal ikkje råda yver dykk; de er ikkje under lovi, men under nåden.
15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law but under favour? Far be it!
Kva då? Skal me synda, sidan me ikkje er under lovi, men under nåden? Nei, langt ifrå!
16 Know ye not that, unto whom ye are presenting yourselves as servants for obedience, servants ye are unto [him unto] whom ye are obedient, whether of sin unto death or of obedience unto righteousness?
Veit de ikkje at når de byd dykk fram åt einkvan til tenarar so de lyder, so er de tenarar under den som de lyder, anten det so er under syndi til daude eller under lydnaden til rettferd?
17 But thanks be unto God, that—whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient out of the heart unto the mould of teaching into which ye were delivered;
Men Gud vere takk, at de vel hev vore tenarar under syndi, men no av hjarta hev vorte lyduge mot den lærdomsform som de er yvergjeven til!
18 And, being freed from sin, ye were made servants unto righteousness; —
Men sidan de er frigjorde frå syndi, hev de vorte tenarar for rettferdi.
19 In human fashion am I speaking, because of the weakness of your flesh; —for, just as ye presented your members as servants unto impurity and unto lawlessness [for lawlessness], so now, present ye your members as servants unto righteousness for sanctification.
Eg talar på menneskjevis for dykkar kjøts vesaldom. For liksom de baud lemerne dykkar fram til tenarar for ureinskapen og urettferdi til urettferd, so bjod no fram lemerne dykkar til tenarar for rettferdi til helging.
20 For, when ye were servants of sin, ye were free as to righteousness; —
For då de var tenarar for syndi, var de frie frå rettferdi.
21 What fruit, therefore, had ye then—in things for which ye now are taking shame to yourselves? For, the end of those things, is death.
Kva frukt hadde de so den tid? Slikt som de no skjemmest ved. For endelykti på deim er dauden.
