We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
6:5
ወእመሰኬተመሰልናሁበሞቱንትሜሰሎበሕይወቱሂ።
我們若在他死的形狀上與他聯合,也要在他復活的形狀上與他聯合;
For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
Don’t you know that when you present yourselves as servants and obey someone, you are the servants of whomever you obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
But thanks be to God that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.
6:18
ወይእዜሰተግዕዝክሙእምኀጢአትወተቀነይክሙለጽድቅ።
你們既從罪裏得了釋放,就作了義的奴僕。
Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.
I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you presented your members as servants to uncleanness and to wickedness upon wickedness, even so now present your members as servants to righteousness for sanctification.
6:20
እስመአመተቀነይክሙለኀጢአትግዑዛነኮንክሙእምጽድቅ።
因為你們作罪之奴僕的時候,就不被義約束了。
For when you were servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.
6:21
ወበውእቱፍሬክሙዘአሜሁናሁይእዜትትኀፈሩቦቱእስመድኅሬሁሎቱሞት።
你們現今所看為羞恥的事,當日有甚麼果子呢?那些事的結局就是死。
What fruit then did you have at that time in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.
