¹What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

¹Bang i genta dia leh? Hehpihna a khan sem theihna dingin khelhna ah i om nilouh ding ua hia?

²God forbid. We who died to sin, how shall we any longer live therein?

²Om nilouh lou hial ding. Eite khelhna lama sisa, khelhna ah bangchin i hing thei lailai dia?

³Or are ye ignorant that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

³Eite Kris Jesu-a baptis luta om tengteng a sihna ah baptis lutin i om chih na theikei ua hia?

⁴We were buried therefore with him through baptism unto death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

⁴Huaijiakin a sihna a baptis luta omin amah toh vuikhawmin i om uhi, huchia Pa thupinain misi laka kipana Kris a kaihthohtak banga eite leng hinna thaka i khosak theihna dingin.

⁵For if we have become united with [him] in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of his resurrection;

⁵A sihna ki batpih a amah toh i kizop khit ngal un tuh, a thohnawnna kibatpihin leng i kizom sam ding hi.

⁶knowing this, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be done away, that so we should no longer be in bondage to sin;

⁶I mihing lui a kiangah kilhdenin a om samta chih i thei; huchia khelhna pumpi hihmanthata a om theihna ding leh tua kipana khelhna sikhaa i om louhna dingin.

⁷for he that hath died is justified from sin.

⁷Kuapeuh sisa tuh, khelhna lakah a suakta ta ngala.

⁸But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him;

⁸Huan, Kris kianga I suh sam tak aleh, a kiangah I hing sam ding chih I gingta ahi;

⁹knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death no more hath dominion over him.

⁹Kris tuh misi laka kipan kaihthohin a oma, a si nawn kei ding chih i thei ngal ua; sihnain amah tungah thu a neita kei hi.

¹⁰For the death that he died, he died unto sin once: but the life that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

¹⁰A sihna tuh khelhna lam thu ah khantawna din khat vei kia a si ahi, a hinna bel Pathian lam thu ah a hing ahi.

¹¹Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus.

¹¹Huchi mahbangin nou leng khelhna lam thu ah sisain kisep unla, Pathian lam thu ah bel Kris Jesu ah hingin kisep un.

¹²Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof:

¹²Huaijiakin, na pumpi uh duhgawlna thu mang dingin na pumpi si thei uah khelhna vaihawm sak kei un.

¹³neither present your members unto sin [as] instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves unto God, as alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God.

¹³Na pumpi hiangte uh leng diklouhna vanzat dingin khelhna kiangah pe phal sam kei un; a hihhangin misi laka kipan hing nawn bangin Pathian kiangah kipia unla, na pumpi hiangte uh leng dikna vanzat dingin Pathian kiangah pe phal jaw un.

¹⁴For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under law, but under grace.

¹⁴Banghianghiam i chih leh, khelhnain na tunguah thu a nei takei ding, dan vaihawma om na hi kei ua, hehpihna vaihawma om na hi jaw uhi.

¹⁵What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.

¹⁵Bangchin ahi dia leh? Dan vaihawm a om i hih kei ua, hehpihna vaihawma om i hih jawk jiakin i khial ding uh ahi diam?

¹⁶Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves [as] servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

¹⁶Hilou hial ding. Kua kiang peuhah leng a thu mang dinga a sikha dia na lut un tuh sihna khopa khelhna sikha hiam, dikna khopa thu mang sikha hiam, a thu na man uh sikha na hi uh chih na theikei ua hia?

¹⁷But thanks be to God, that, whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered;

¹⁷Ahihhangin, khelhna sikha nahita mahle uchin, thuginpi huaia na kipiakna uh, lungtang taktakin na juita ua, Pathian kiangah kipahthu om heh;

¹⁸and being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.

¹⁸Khelhna laka kipan suahtak sakin nong om ua, dikna sikhate na honghita uhi.

¹⁹I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye presented your members [as] servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity, even so now present your members [as] servants to righteousness unto sanctification.

¹⁹Na sa uh hat louh jiakin mihing danin thu ka gen hi; na sa hiangte uh nitna kiang leh, tatlekna dinga tatlekna kianga sikha dia na piak phal bang un, tuin na sa hiangte uh sangthouna dingin dikna kiangah sikha dingin pe phal un.

²⁰For when ye were servants of sin, ye were free in regard of righteousness.

²⁰Khelhna sikhate na hih lai un dikna lakah na siang ua.

²¹What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.

²¹Tua na thil zahpih sate uah, huai laiin gah bang ahia nanamuh jel uh?

²²But now being made free from sin and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life.

²²Huai thil tawpna jaw sihna a nahi nak ahi. Tunah bel khelhna laka hihsianga omin, Pathian sikhate na honghih un, siangthouna mu khopin na gah uh na nei uh a keihiam, huai tawpna khantawna hinna toh.Khelhna man tuh sihna ahi ngala Pathian thilthawnpiak bel i Toupa Kris Jesu jiakin khantawna hinna ahi.

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

²³Khelhna man tuh sihna ahi ngala Pathian thilthawnpiak bel i Toupa Kris Jesu jiakin khantawna hinna ahi.
