There are real captives in a real captivity or bondage: under sin (Rom. 3:9), under the condemnation of the law (19), under the curse of the law (Gal. 3:10), in bondage to death, under the fear of death (Heb. 2:15), in slavery to Satan (Eph. 2:2), in bondage to the world and under the fear of hell.
Kuna watekwa-nyara halisi katika ufungo halisi; chini ya dhambi (Warumi 3:9), chini ya kuhukumiwa kwa sheria (19), chini ya laana ya sheria (Wagalatia 3:10), kwa ufungo wa mauti, chini ya uwoga wa mauti (Waebrania 2:15), ndani ya utumwa wa Shetani (Waefeso 2:2), katika ufungo kwa dunia na chini ya uwoga wa kuzimu.
