Romans 6

1 What then shall we say? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may increase?

1 إِذَنْ مَاذَا نَقُولُ؟ أَنَسْتَمِرُّ فِي الْخَطِيئَةِ لِكَيْ تَتَوَافَرَ النِّعْمَةُ؟

2 Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?

2 حَاشَا! فَنَحْنُ الَّذِينَ مُتْنَا بِالنِّسْبَةِ لِلْخَطِيئَةِ، كَيْفَ نَعِيشُ بَعْدُ فِيهَا؟

3 Or aren’t you aware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?

3 أَمْ يَخْفَى عَلَيْكُمْ أَنَّنَا جَمِيعاً، نَحْنُ الَّذِينَ تَعَمَّدْنَا اتِّحَاداً بِالْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، قَدْ تَعَمَّدْنَا اتِّحَاداً بِمَوْتِهِ؟

4 We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life.

4 وَبِسَبَبِ ذلِكَ دُفِنَّا مَعَهُ بِالْمَعْمُودِيَّةِ لِلْمَوْتِ، حَتَّى كَمَا أُقِيمَ الْمَسِيحُ مِنَ الأَمْوَاتِ بِمَجْدِ الآبِ، كَذلِكَ نَسْلُكُ نَحْنُ أَيْضاً فِي حَيَاةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ.

5 For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.

5 فَمَادُمْنَا قَدِ اتَّحَدْنَا بِهِ فِي مَوْتٍ يُشْبِهُ مَوْتَهُ، فَإِنَّنَا سَنَتَّحِدُ بِهِ أَيْضاً فِي قِيَامَتِهِ.

6 We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

6 فَنَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ هَذَا: أَنَّ الإِنْسَانَ الْعَتِيقَ فِينَا قَدْ صُلِبَ مَعَهُ لِكَيْ يُبْطَلَ جَسَدُ الْخَطِيئَةِ فَلا نَبْقَى عَبِيداً لِلْخَطِيئَةِ فِيمَا بَعْدُ.

7 For anyone who has died has been freed from sin.

7 فَإِنَّ مَنْ مَاتَ، قَدْ تَحَرَّرَ مِنَ الْخَطِيئَةِ.

8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.

8 وَمَادُمْنَا مُتْنَا مَعَ الْمَسِيحِ، فَنَحْنُ نُؤْمِنُ أَنَّنَا سَنَحْيَا أَيْضاً مَعَهُ،

9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has dominion over Him.

9 لِكَوْنِنَا عَلَى يَقِينٍ بِأَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ، وَقَدْ أُقِيمَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ، لَا يَمُوتُ مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً، إِذْ لَيْسَ لِلْمَوْتِ سِيَادَةٌ عَلَيْهِ بَعْدُ.

10 The death He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life He lives, He lives to God.

10 لأَنَّهُ بِمَوْتِهِ، قَدْ مَاتَ لأَجْلِ الْخَطِيئَةِ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً؛ وَبِحَيَاتِهِ، يَحْيَا لِلهِ.

11 So you too must count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

11 فَكَذلِكَ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضاً، احْسِبُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ أَمْوَاتاً بِالنِّسْبَةِ لِلْخَطِيئَةِ وَأَحْيَاءَ لِلهِ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ.

12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires.

12 إِذَنْ، لَا تَمْلِكَنَّ الْخَطِيئَةُ فِي جَسَدِكُمُ الْمَائِتِ فَتَنْقَادُوا لَهَا فِي شَهْوَاتِهِ.

13 Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness.

13 وَلا تُقَدِّمُوا أَعْضَاءَكُمْ لِلْخَطِيئَةِ أَسْلِحَةً لِلإِثْمِ، بَلْ قَدِّمُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ لِلهِ بِاعْتِبَارِكُمْ أُقِمْتُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الأَمْوَاتِ أَحْيَاءَ، وَأَعْضَاءَكُمْ لِلهِ أَسْلِحَةً لِلْبِرِّ.

14 For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.

14 فَلَنْ يَكُونَ لِلْخَطِيئَةِ سِيَادَةٌ عَلَيْكُمْ، إِذْ لَسْتُمْ خَاضِعِينَ لِلشَّرِيعَةِ بَلْ لِلنِّعْمَةِ.

15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not!

15 فَمَاذَا إِذَنْ؟ أَنُخْطِئُ لأَنَّنَا لَسْنَا خَاضِعِينَ لِلشَّرِيعَةِ بَلْ لِلنِّعْمَةِ؟ حَاشَا!

16 Do you not know that when you offer yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves to the one you obey, whether you are slaves to sin leading to death, or to obedience leading to righteousness?

16 أَمَا تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّكُمْ عِنْدَمَا تُقَدِّمُونَ أَنْفُسَكُمْ عَبِيداً لِلطَّاعَةِ، تَكُونُونَ لِلَّذِي تُطِيعُونَهُ عَبِيداً: إِمَّا لِلْخَطِيئَةِ فَإِلَى الْمَوْتِ، وَإِمَّا لِلطَّاعَةِ فَإِلَى الْبِرِّ؟

17 But thanks be to God that, though you once were slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were committed.

17 إِنَّمَا الشُّكْرُ لِلهِ، لأَنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ عَبِيداً لِلْخَطِيئَةِ وَلَكِنْ أَطَعْتُمْ مِنَ الْقَلْبِ صِيغَةَ التَّعْلِيمِ الَّذِي وُضِعْتُمْ فِي عُهْدَتِهِ.

18 You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.

18 وَالآنَ، إِذْ حُرِّرْتُمْ مِنَ الْخَطِيئَةِ، صِرْتُمْ عَبِيداً لِلْبِرِّ.

19 I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to escalating wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness.

19 أَتَكَلَّمُ بَشَرِيًّا هُنَا بِسَبَبِ ضَعْفِكُمُ الْبَشَرِيِّ. فَكَمَا قَدَّمْتُمْ سَابِقاً أَعْضَاءَكُمْ عَبِيداً لِلنَّجَاسَةِ وَالإِثْمِ فِي خِدْمَةِ الإِثْمِ، كَذَلِكَ قَدِّمُوا الآنَ أَعْضَاءَكُمْ عَبِيداً لِلْبِرِّ فِي خِدْمَةِ الْقَدَاسَةِ.

20 For when you were slaves to sin, you were free of obligation to righteousness.

20 فَإِنَّكُمْ، لَمَّا كُنْتُمْ عَبِيداً لِلْخَطِيئَةِ، كُنْتُمْ أَحْرَاراً مِنَ الْبِرِّ.

21 What fruit did you reap at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? The outcome of those things is death.

21 وَلَكِنْ أَيَّ ثَمَرٍ أَنْتَجْتُمْ حِينَذَاكَ مِنَ الأُمُورِ الَّتِي تَخْجَلُونَ بِها الآنَ، وَمَا عَاقِبَتُهَا إِلّا الْمَوْتَ؟

22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the fruit you reap leads to holiness, and the outcome is eternal life.

22 أَمَّا الآنَ، وَقَدْ حُرِّرْتُمْ مِنَ الْخَطِيئَةِ وَصِرْتُمْ عَبِيداً لِلهِ، فَإِنَّ لَكُمْ ثَمَرَكُمْ لِلْقَدَاسَةِ، وَالْعَاقِبَةُ هِيَ الْحَيَاةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ.

23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

23 لأَنَّ أُجْرَةَ الْخَطِيئَةِ هِيَ الْمَوْتُ، وَأَمَّا هِبَةُ اللهِ فَهِيَ الْحَيَاةُ الأَبَدِيَّةُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا.
