< 1 Pedro 3 >

1 Halaber emazteac suiet diraden bere senharrén, baldineta batzu hitzaren desobedient badirade, emaztén conuersationeaz hitza gabe irabaz ditecençat,
Likewise, wives, [be] subject to your own husbands, that, even if any are disobedient to the word, they may be gained without [the] word by the conversation of the wives,
2 Ikussi duqueitenean çuen conuersatione caste beldurrequin dena:
having witnessed your pure conversation [carried out] in fear;
3 Ceinén ornamendua eztén lekoreco bilo içurduratan, edo vrrhezco paramendutan, edo abillamenduetaco habitutan:
whose adorning let it not be that outward one of tressing of hair, and wearing gold, or putting on apparel;
4 Baina bihotzeco guiçon gordea, spiritu eme eta sossegu batetaco incorruptionean consistitzen dena, cein baita Iaincoaren aitzinean precioso.
but the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible [ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.
5 Ecen hunela lehenago emazte sainda Iaincoa baithan sperança çutenac-ere appaincen ciraden, suiet ciradelaric bere senharrén:
For thus also the holy women who have hoped in God heretofore adorned themselves, being subject to their own husbands;
6 Sarac Abraham obeditzen çuen beçala, hura iaun deitzen çuela, ceinen alaba eguin içan baitzarete, vngui eguiten duçuela, eta eceinere iciapenen beldur etzaretela.
as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children ye have become, doing good, and not fearing with any kind of consternation.
7 Senharrác, halaber conuersa eçaçue hequin discretqui emaztezco vnci fragilagoarequin beçala, ohore emaiten draucaçuela, elkarrequin vicitzeco gratiaren heredero quide-ere çaretenoc beçala, çuen orationeac empatcha eztitecençát.
[Ye] husbands likewise, dwell with [them] according to knowledge, as with a weaker, [even] the female, vessel, giving [them] honour, as also fellow-heirs of [the] grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
8 Eta finalqui guciac çareten consentimendu batetaco eta compassione batetaco, fraternalqui onhetsle çaretelaric misericordioso, gratioso:
Finally, [be] all of one mind, sympathising, full of brotherly love, tender hearted, humble minded;
9 Gaitza gaitzagatic rendatzen eztuçuela edo iniuria iniuriagatic, baina contrariora, benedicatzen duçuela: daquiçuelaric ecen hartara deithuac çaretela, benedictionezco heretagea possedi deçaçuençát.
not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing; but on the contrary, blessing [others], because ye have been called to this, that ye should inherit blessing.
10 Ecen nahi duenac onhetsi vicia, eta ikussi egun onac, beguira beça bere mihia gaitzetaric, eta bere ezpainac enganioren pronuntiatzetic:
For he that will love life and see good days, let him cause his tongue to cease from evil and his lips that they speak no guile.
11 Itzul bedi gaizquitic, eta begui vngui: bilha beça baquea, eta iarreiqui bequió hari.
And let him avoid evil, and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it;
12 Ecen Iaunaren beguiac iustoén gainera beha daude, eta haren beharriac hayén othoitzetara, eta Iaunaren beguithartea da gaizquiac eguiten dituztenén gainean.
because [the] eyes of [the] Lord [are] on [the] righteous, and his ears towards their supplications; but [the] face of [the] Lord [is] against them that do evil.
13 Eta nor da çuey calteric eguinen drauçuena, baldin vnguiari baçarreitzate?
And who shall injure you if ye have become imitators of that which [is] good?
14 Baina baldin cerbait suffritzen baduçue vngui eguinagatic, dohatsu çarete. Baina hayén beldurrez icit etzaiteztela, ezeta trubla:
But if also ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed [are ye]; but be not afraid of their fear, neither be troubled;
15 Aitzitic Iainco Iauna sanctifica eçaçue çuen bihotzetan: eta çareten bethi prest ihardestera çuetan den sperançáz raçoin galde eguiten duen guciari, emetassunequin eta reuerentiarequin,
but sanctify [the] Lord the Christ in your hearts, and [be] always prepared to [give] an answer [to] every one that asks you to give an account of the hope that [is] in you, but with meekness and fear;
16 Conscientia ona duçuelaric: çuen contra gaizquiguiléz beçala minço diraden gauçán, confus diradençat, çuen conuersatione Christ baithango ona calumniatzen dutenac.
having a good conscience, that [as to that] in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may be ashamed who calumniate your good conversation in Christ.
17 Ecen hobe da vngui eguiten duçuela affligi çaitezten, baldin Iaincoaren vorondateac hala nahi badu, ecen ez gaizqui eguiten duçuela.
For [it is] better, if the will of God should will it, to suffer [as] well-doers than [as] evildoers;
18 Ecen Christec-ere behin bekatuagatic suffritu vkan du, iustoac iniustoacgatic: gu Iaincoagana eraman guençançát, haraguiz mortificaturic, baina viuificaturic Spirituaz.
for Christ indeed has once suffered for sins, [the] just for [the] unjust, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in flesh, but made alive in [the] Spirit,
19 Cein Spirituz carceleco spirituey-ere partituric predicatu vkan baitraue,
in which also going he preached to the spirits [which are] in prison,
20 Lehenago desobedient ciradeney, behin beha cegoenean Iaincoaren patientiá Noeren egunetan, appaincen cenean arká: ceinetan gutiac, da iaquiteco, çortzi arima salua baitzitecen vrez:
heretofore disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in [the] days of Noah while the ark was preparing, into which few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:
21 Ceini orain ihardesten draucan baptismoaren figurác gu-ere saluatzen gaitu: ez haraguico satsutassunac chahutzen dituenac, baina conscientiá onaren attestationeac Iaincoaren aitzinean Iesus Christen resurrectioneaz:
which figure also now saves you, [even] baptism, not a putting away of [the] filth of flesh, but [the] demand as before God of a good conscience, by [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ,
22 Cein baita Iaincoaren escuinean, cerurát ioanic, ceini suiet eguin baitzaitza Aingueruäc, eta puissançac eta verthuteac.
who is at [the] right hand of God, gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being subjected to him.
