Romans 6

1 Someone might [RHQ] say [in reply to what I have written] that [since God acted kindly toward us] in a way we did not deserve [because we sinned], perhaps we should continue to sin in order that he may continue to act even more kindly toward us [and keep on forgiving us]! [RHQ]

Me kuwa zamu ce yanzu? Sai mu ci gaba da yin zunubi domin Alheri ya yawaita?

2 [I would reply], No, certainly not! We [ought to consider that] our sinful desires [MET] [cannot make us do what they want us to do], [just like we cannot make] a corpse do what we want it to do. So it is not right that we continue to sin! [RHQ]

Ba zai taba faruwa ba. 'Yaya za'ace mu da muka mutu cikin zunubi mu ci gaba da rayuwa cikin sa?

3 When we were baptized {[asked someone to] baptize us} in order to show that we have a relationship with (OR, are united to) Jesus Christ, our [being baptized was to declare that it was as though] we died with Christ. ([I want] you to remember that!/Do you not know that?) [RHQ]

Ba ku san cewa duk wadanda aka yi masu baftisma cikin Almasihu Yesu an yi masu baftisma har ya zuwa mutuwarsa ne ba?

4 So, when we were baptized {someone baptized us}, [it was as though] we were buried with Christ. [We were baptized] in order to indicate that [we would not let our sinful desires make us do what they want us to do, just like people cannot make] a corpse [do what they want it to] do [MET]. We [were baptized] to [signify that we would] continually conduct our lives in a new way, just like Christ was caused to live again in a new way by the great [power] of [God his] Father.

An kuwa binne mu tare da shi, ta wurin baftisma cikin mutuwarsa. Haka kuma ya kasance ne domin kamar yadda Almasihu ya tashi daga matattu cikin daukakar Uba. Sakamakon haka muma zamu yi tafiya cikin sabuwar rayuwa.

5 Because of our close relationship with Christ, we have [separated ourselves from the former way in which we conducted our lives], just like he [was separated from his physical life when he] died [MET]. But God will also certainly [enable us to live in a new way, just like he] enabled Christ to live again.

Domin kuwa idan muna tare dashi cikin kamannin mutuwarsa zamu kuwa zauna tare dashi har ga kamannin tashinsa.

6 We must keep remembering that when Christ died on the cross [MET], [it was as though] our sinful nature [died with him. It has] lost its power to make us do what it wants us to do [MET]. That happened in order that we would not do the sinful [things that our bodies] [MET], which desire to sin, want us to do, and in order that we would no longer have to sin [MET], as slaves [have to do what their masters want].

Mun kuma san cewa, an giciye wannan tsohon mutunmin nan namu tare dashi, domin a hallaka jikin zunubi. wanna kuwa ya kasance ne domin kada mu ci gaba da bautar zunubi.

7 [We are, as it were, freed] {[free]} [from] sinful [desires] [MET] [controlling us, just like] those who have died are free [from anything controlling them].

Duk kuma wanda ya mutu an ambace shi a matayin adali akan zunubi.

8 Since [it is as though] we died with Christ, we believe that we will continue to live with him.

Amma idan muka mutu tare da Almasihu, mun bada gaskiya zamu yi rayuwa tare dashi.

9 We know that since [God] enabled Christ to live again after he died, Christ will never die again. Nothing will ever be able to make him die again [PRS].

Muna da sanen cewa an tada Almasihu daga matattu, don haka kuwa ba matacce yake ba. Mutuwa kuma bata da iko a kansa.

10 When he died, he died once for [people] who had sinned, and he will never die again; but in regard to his living [again now], he lives in order to [serve/honor] God.

Game da mutuwar da yayi ga zunubi yayi sau daya kuma domin dukka. Rayuwar da yake yi kuma yana yi wa Allah ne.

11 Similarly, you must consider that [it is as though] you have become [unable to do what your] sinful [desires] [MET] want, as a corpse [is not able to do what anyone wants it to do]. You must also consider that because of your relationship to Christ Jesus you are living [in a new way] in order to [serve/honor] God.

Don haka ku ma sai ku dauki kanku a matsayin matattu ga zunubi amma rayayyu ga Allah cikin Almasihu Yesu.

12 So, do not let the [desire to] sin [PRS] control your bodies [MET] with the result that you do the sinful things that you desire to do. [Remember that] your bodies will surely die, [but your spirits will never die].

Sabili da haka kada ku bar zunubi yayi mulki a cikin jikinku, har ku yi biyayya ga sha'awarsa.

13 Do not let any of your body parts do wicked things, as [you did] [MET] [when you were spiritually] dead. Instead, present yourselves to God as people who are alive [spiritually]. Present all your body parts to God, [to allow him] to use them to [do] righteous things.

Kada ku mika gabobin jikinku ga zunubi a matsayin kayan aikin rashin adalci. Amma ku mika kanku ga Allah rayayyu daga mutuwa. Ku kuma mika gabobin jikinku ga Allah a matsayin kayan aiki na adalci.

14 Do not let a [desire to] sin control you [PRS]. The laws [that God gave Moses] did not enable you [to stop sinning]. But [now] God controls you and kindly helps you [not to sin].

kada ku ba zunubi dama yayi mulki a kanku, domin ba karkashin doka kuke ba, amma karkashin alheri kuke.

15 [I suppose that certain people might think about what I have just said and they might] say [RHQ], “[You say that] the laws [God gave Moses] did not [enable us to stop sinning, but that God is now] treating us kindly in ways we do not deserve. ([That seems to mean that God permits] us to continue sinning./[Does that mean that God permits] us to continue sinning?) [RHQ]” My reply to that is no, we should certainly not continue [sinning]

To sai me? Sai mu yi zunubi wai don ba a karkashin doka muke ba amma alheri. ba zai taba faruwa ba.

16 [Slaves] have to obey [what their masters command] [MET] [them to do]. (I want you to remember this./Do you not know this?) [RHQ] Similarly, if you present yourselves to someone [in order to] obey him, you will be the slaves [MET] of the person you obey. Similarly, [if you have yielded yourselves to do the] sinful things [you desire], you are slaves of your sinful desires [PRS], and you will be eternally separated from God. [If you have yielded yourselves] to obey [God], you are slaves of God and you need to [live] righteously.

Ba ku san cewa duk ga wanda kuka mika kanku a matsayin bayi, a gareshi ku bayi ne ba? Wannan fa gaskiya ne, ko dai ku bayi ne ga zunubi wanda kaiwa ga mutuwa ko kuma bayi ga biyayya wanda ke kaiwa ga adalci.

17 You were once slaves [to] your sinful [desires]. But you began to sincerely obey the new teaching [MET] that you were taught {that [people] taught you}. I thank God for that.

Amma godiya ta tabbata ga Allah! domin da ku bayin zunubi ne, amma kun yi biyayya daga zuciyarku irin salon koyarwar da aka baku.

18 [I] also [thank God that] you have been freed {[that] he has freed you} from [being controlled by a desire to] sin, and that you have become [as though you were] slaves [MET] to [living] righteously [MET].

An 'yantar daku daga bautar zunubi, an kuma maishe ku bayin adalci.

19 I am illustrating what I say [by talking about slavery] because your human nature prevents you from understanding [spiritual truth] easily. [In the past] you willingly did the immoral and unlawful things that [your minds compelled] your bodies to do [MET], [just like] slaves [do what their masters compel them to do]. As a result, you did even more unlawful things. Now, [you need to] willingly allow [your minds to compel] your bodies to [act] righteously [MET], in order that you will behave in a holy/pure way.

Ina magana da ku kamar mutum, domin kasawarku ta nama da jini. Kamar yadda kuka mika gabobin jikinku ga kazamta da miyagun ayyuka, haka ma yanzu ku mika gabobin jikinku a matsayin bayi na adalci.

20 When you were [like] slaves [because your sinful desires compelled you to do] sinful things [MET], you were not [concerned about behaving] righteously [MET].

Domin a lokacin da kuke bayin zunubi, ku yantattu ne ga adalci.

21 Nevertheless, [doing] those things resulted in your being separated from God, so you did not benefit at all from [doing] the [sinful] things that you are now ashamed of. [RHQ]

A wannan lokacin wanne amfani kuka samu na ayyukan da yanzu kuke jin kunyarsu? Domin kuwa sakamakon wadannan ayyuka shine mutuwa.

22 But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios g166)

Amma yanzu da da aka yantar daku daga zunubi aka mai da ku bayin Allah, amfaninsa ku kuwa shine tsarkakewarku. Sakamakon kuwa shine rai na har abada. (aiōnios g166)

23 [What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios g166)

Don kuwa sakamakon zunubi mutuwa ne. Amma kyautar Allah itace rai madauwami cikin Almasihu Yesu Ubangijinmu. (aiōnios g166)
