罗马书 6
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
与基督同死同活
6 那么，我们该怎么说呢？我们可以继续犯罪，使恩典显得更丰富吗？ 2 绝不可以！我们既然向罪死了，岂可继续活在罪中？ 3 难道你们不知道，我们受洗归属基督耶稣是和祂一同死吗？ 4 我们借着洗礼和祂一同死了，埋葬了，这样我们的一举一动可以有新生命的样式，正如基督借着父的荣耀从死里复活一样。
5 如果我们和基督一同死了，也必和祂一同复活。 6 我们知道，我们的旧人已经和祂一同钉在十字架上，使辖制我们身体的罪失去力量，使我们不再做罪的奴隶。 7 因为人一旦死了，便脱离了罪。
8 如果我们与基督同死，相信也必与祂同活。 9 因为我们知道，基督既然从死里复活了，就不会再死，死亡也不能再控制祂。 10 祂死，是向罪死，只死一次；祂活，却是向上帝永远活着。 11 这样，你们应当看自己是向罪死了，但向上帝则看自己是活在基督耶稣里。
12 所以，不要让罪辖制你们必死的身体，使你们顺从身体的私欲； 13 也不要将你们的身体献给罪作不义的工具，而是要像一个从死里复活的人将自己奉献给上帝，把身体献给上帝作义的工具。 14 罪不能再主宰你们，因为你们已经不在律法之下，而是在恩典之中。
做义的奴仆
15 那么，我们在恩典之中，不在律法之下，就可以任意犯罪吗？绝不可以！ 16 你们难道不明白吗？你们献身给谁、服从谁，就是谁的奴隶。做罪的奴隶，结局是死亡；做上帝的奴仆，就被称为义人。 17 感谢上帝！你们从前虽然做过罪的奴隶，现在却衷心服从了所传给你们的教导， 18 从罪中得到释放，成为义的奴仆。
19 因为你们有人性的软弱，我就从人的立场向你们解释。以前你们将身体献给肮脏不法的事，任其奴役，助长不法。现在你们要将身体奉献给义，为义效劳，成为圣洁的人。 20 你们做罪的奴隶时，不受义的约束， 21 做了现在想起来也觉得羞耻的事，得到了什么益处呢？那些事只能导致死亡！ 22 但现在你们已从罪中得到释放，做了上帝的奴仆，这样会使你们圣洁，最终得到永生。 23 因为罪的代价就是死亡，而上帝借着主基督耶稣赐下的礼物则是永生。
Romans 6
Young's Literal Translation
6 What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?
2 let it not be! we who died to the sin -- how shall we still live in it?
3 are ye ignorant that we, as many as were baptized to Christ Jesus, to his death were baptized?
4 we were buried together, then, with him through the baptism to the death, that even as Christ was raised up out of the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we in newness of life might walk.
5 For, if we have become planted together to the likeness of his death, [so] also we shall be of the rising again;
6 this knowing, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;
7 for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.
8 And if we died with Christ, we believe that we also shall live with him,
9 knowing that Christ, having been raised up out of the dead, doth no more die, death over him hath no more lordship;
10 for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;
11 so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.
12 Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;
13 neither present ye your members instruments of unrighteousness to the sin, but present yourselves to God as living out of the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God;
14 for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!
16 have ye not known that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, servants ye are to him to whom ye obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?
17 and thanks to God, that ye were servants of the sin, and -- were obedient from the heart to the form of teaching to which ye were delivered up;
18 and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.
19 In the manner of men I speak, because of the weakness of your flesh, for even as ye did present your members servants to the uncleanness and to the lawlessness -- to the lawlessness, so now present your members servants to the righteousness -- to sanctification,
20 for when ye were servants of the sin, ye were free from the righteousness,
21 what fruit, therefore, were ye having then, in the things of which ye are now ashamed? for the end of those [is] death.
22 And now, having been freed from the sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit -- to sanctification, and the end life age-during;
23 for the wages of the sin [is] death, and the gift of God [is] life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 6
Contemporary English Version
Dead to Sin but Alive because of Christ
6 What should we say? Should we keep on sinning, so that God's gift of undeserved grace will show up even better? 2 No, we should not! If we are dead to sin, how can we go on sinning? 3 Don't you know that all who share in Christ Jesus by being baptized also share in his death? 4 (A) When we were baptized, we died and were buried with Christ. We were baptized, so we would live a new life, as Christ was raised to life by the glory of God the Father.
5 If we shared in Jesus' death by being baptized, we will be raised to life with him. 6 We know that the persons we used to be were nailed to the cross with Jesus. This was done, so our sinful bodies would no longer be the slaves of sin. 7 We know sin doesn't have power over dead people.
8 As surely as we died with Christ, we believe we will also live with him. 9 We know that death no longer has any power over Christ. He died and was raised to life, never again to die. 10 When Christ died, he died for sin once and for all. But now he is alive, and he lives only for God. 11 In the same way, you must think of yourselves as dead to the power of sin. But Christ Jesus has given life to you, and you live for God.
12 Don't let sin rule your body. After all, your body is bound to die, so don't obey its desires 13 or let any part of it become a slave of evil. Give yourselves to God, as people who have been raised from death to life. Make every part of your body a slave that pleases God. 14 Don't let sin keep ruling your lives. You are ruled by God's undeserved grace and not by the Law.
Slaves Who Do What Pleases God
15 What does all this mean? Does it mean we are free to sin, because we are ruled by God's gift of undeserved grace and not by the Law? Certainly not! 16 Don't you know that you are slaves of anyone you obey? You can be slaves of sin and die, or you can be obedient slaves of God and be acceptable to him. 17 You used to be slaves of sin. But I thank God that with all your heart you followed the example set forth in the teaching you received. 18 Now you are set free from sin and are slaves who please God.
19 I am using these everyday examples, because in some ways you are still weak. You used to let the different parts of your body be slaves of your evil thoughts. But now you must make every part of your body serve God, so that you will belong completely to him.
20 When you were slaves of sin, you didn't have to please God. 21 But what good did you receive from the things you did? All you have to show for them is your shame, and they lead to death. 22 Now you have been set free from sin, and you are God's slaves. This will make you holy and will lead you to eternal life. 23 Sin pays off with death. But God's gift is eternal life given by Jesus Christ our Lord.
