Surrexit a mortuis. Mors et resurrectio Christi etiam sacramenta sunt.

6:4 we died and were buried with Christ: The believer’s power over sin and the ability to lead a new life stem from identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection (see 6:5, 8). From God’s perspective, Jesus’ death to sin (see 6:10) is ours as well. His rising to new life means that we also begin to lead a new life, and in the future our bodies will also be raised.

συνετάφημεν οὖν αὐτῷ
˱we˲_/were/_buried_with therefore ˱with˲_him
Paul speaks of Christians as if they were buried with Jesus when they were baptized. Paul mentions burial because it emphasizes that Jesus did indeed die. Here he means that Christians are indeed united with Christ’s death and share in its spiritual benefits. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning plainly. Alternative translation: “We are indeed united, then, with Christ’s death” or “We are so united, then, with Christ’s death that it is as if we were really buried with him”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
διὰ τοῦ βαπτίσματος εἰς τὸν θάνατον

in_order_that as /was/_raised Christ from dead by the glory ˱of˲_the Father thus also we in newness ˱of˲_life /may/_walk
Here, so that indicates that what follows is a purpose clause. Paul is stating one purpose for which God instituted baptism. If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases to make this explicit. Alternate translation: “in order for us to walk in newness of life, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father”

The point of this comparison is that the new way a Christian should live after being baptized is similar to being raised from the dead, as Christ was. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent comparison or express this meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “we should live in a new way, similar to when Christ was raised from death through the glory of the Father”
