Men Rom 7
Kadede Kap (Pohnpeian New Testament and Psalms)
Berean Standard Bible
1DE ri ai kan, komail jota aja i kin peidok ren me aja kapun o me kapun o kin poedi aramaj arain a memaur?
1Do you not know, brothers (for I am speaking to those who know the law), that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?
2Pwe li amen, me a warok mia, kin kaupinki kapun en a warok arain a memaur. A ma a warok melar, a muei janer kapun en a warok.
2For instance, a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is released from the law of marriage.
3A ma a pan paudeki amen ol ni a warok memaur, a pan adaneki kamal amen; a ma a warok melar, a muei janer kapun, ap jota pan kamal amen, ma a pan pur on amen ol.
3So then, if she is joined to another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law and is not an adulteress, even if she marries another man.
4Ari ri ai kan, iduen pil komail mekilar kapun o pweki war en Krijtuj, pwen wiala nain amen, iet, me iajadar jan ren me melar akan, pwen kaparapar on Kot.
4Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
5Pwe ni at kekeideki tiak en pali uduk, inon en dip me kelail nan kokon atail pweki kapun o, pwen kaparapar on mela.
5For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.
6A met kitail muei janer kapun o, pwe jal pat on mela olar, pwe kitail en papa on tiak kap en nen, a kaidin on tiak marin en intin.
6But now, having died to what bound us, we have been released from the law, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
7Ari, da me kitail en inda? Me dip kapun o? O jo! A i pan jaja dip, ma jo kapun. Pwe I pan jaja duen inon jued, ma kapun jo kalok kidar: Koe der norok!
7What then shall we say? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have been mindful of sin if not for the law. For I would not have been aware of coveting if the law had not said, “Do not covet.”
8A dip kadiarok kidar kujoned, ap kainon on ia jon en inon jued karoj, pwe ma jota kapun dip mela.
8But sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, produced in me every kind of covetous desire. For apart from the law, sin is dead.
9Pwe maj o i jota mi pan kapun, ap mamaureta, a kujoned lao mia, dip ai ap diarokadar.
9Once I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life and I died.
10A nai melar; kujoned, me loki don ia, pwe i en maure kida, kare on ia mela.
10So I discovered that the very commandment that was meant to bring life actually brought death.
11Pwe dip kadiarok kidar kujoned liapai ia dar, ap kame ia lar.
11For sin, seizing its opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death.
12Ari, kapun o me jaraui o kujoned me jaraui, a pun o mau.
12So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
13A iaduen me mau kot kare on ia mela? O jo! A dip en janjale kida me kamau o ni a kare on ia mela, pwe dip en janjale kida kujoned.
13Did that which is good, then, become death to me? Certainly not! But in order that sin might be exposed as sin, it produced death in me through what was good, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
14Pwe kitail aja, me kapun o me nenin, a nai me uduken o netilan dip.
14We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
15Pwe i jota aja, da me i en wia. Pwe kaidin me i mauki, me i kin wiada, a me i kin juedeki, iei me i kin wia.
15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.
16Ari, ma i kin wiada, me i kan wia, nan i kin kajanjaleda, me kapun me mau.
16And if I do what I do not want to do, I admit that the law is good.
17A ma i wiadar, me i jota men wia, kaidin nai me wiadar, a dip me mimi lol i.
17In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
18Pwe i aja, me jota mau kot mi lol i nan uduk ai, pwe i kin men wiada me mau, a en anada me pun i jota kak on.
18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
19Pwe me mau o, me i men wiada, i jota kin kapwaida, a me jued, me i kan, i me i kin wiada.
19For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do.
20A ma i wiada, me i jo men wiada, kaidin nai me wiada, a dip me mi lol i.
20And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21let me kapun kadiarok on ia: Ni ai men wiada me mau, me jued mimi re i.
21So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
22Pwe i kin mauki kapun en Kot pali lol en aramaj.
22For in my inner being I delight in God’s law.
23I ap diaradar eu kapun ni ai kokon akan, me kin palian kapun en loli, ap kalua ia di pan kapun en dip, me mi nan ai kokon akan.
23But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.
24O nai aramaj luet amen! Ij me pan kamaio wei ia jan ni war mela wet!
24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?
25I danke Kot pweki Iejuj Krijtuj atail Kaun. Nan lol i i kin papan kapun en Kot, a ni pali uduk kapun en dip.
25Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
