1 Peter 2
1 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
Tahmenhaih hoiah kakoi Sithaw to na pataengh o boeh pongah, sethaihnawk, alinghaihnawk, angsakcophaih,
2 as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
uthaih hoi loksae apaehhaihnawk to takhoe o boih ah loe, tapen kangtha nawkta baktih toengah,
3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
kaciim tahnutui Sithaw lok to koeh oh, to tiah ni na qoeng o thai tih.
4 Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
Kaminawk mah pahnawt o sut, toe Sithaw mah qoih ih atho kaom, kahing thlung khaeah nang zoh o pongah,
5 You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
nangcae doeh Muithla qoeng hanah im sakhaih kahing thlung baktih, ciimcai qaima baktiah na oh o boeh moe, Jesu Kri rang hoiah Sithaw mah talawk ih muithla angbawnhaih hmuen tathlang kami ah na oh o toeng boeh.
6 Because it is contained in Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”
To pongah Cabu thungah doeh, Khenah, atho kaom qoih ih im takii ih thlung to Zion mae nuiah ka suek: anih tang kami loe azathaih tong mak ai, tiah oh.
7 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”
To pongah tanghaih tawn nangcae hanah, anih loe kating ai atho oh: toe tang ai kaminawk hanah loe atho om ai, Im sah kaminawk mah pahnawt o sut ih thlung loe, kalen koek im takii ih thlung ah oh boeh,
8 and, “a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.” For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
lok tahngai ai kaminawk hanah loe amthaekhaih thlung hoi amtimhaih lungsong ah oh.
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Toe vinghaih thung hoi aanghaih thungah kakawk, Anih to na pakoeh o thai hanah, nangcae loe qoih ih kami, siangpahrang ih qaima toksah kami, kaciim acaeng, pahoe ih kami ah na oh o:
10 In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
canghniah loe anih ih kami ah na om o ai, toe vaihi loe Sithaw kami ah na oh o boeh: canghniah loe anih palungnathaih to na hnu o ai, toe vaihi loe a palungnathaih to na hnuk o boeh.
11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
Palung ih kaminawk, Angvin hoi kholong caeh kami baktiah na oh o pongah, hinghaih pakhra misa ah kaom taksa koehhaih hmuennawk to ayae hanah kang pacae o;
12 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.
nihcae mah nangcae to kahoih ai hmuen sah kami ah poek o cadoeh, aicae khae Sithaw angzoh na niah, nihcae mah na sak o ih kahoih hmuen to hnuk o thai hanah, Gentelnawk salakah kahoih tuinuen hoiah khosah oh.
13 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
Angraeng koehhaih baktiah, ukkungnawk tlim ah khosah oh; kasang koek siangpahrang maw,
14 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
to tih ai boeh loe kasae hmuen sah kaminawk to danpaek moe, kahoih hmuen sah kaminawk pakoeh hanah, kaminawk uk hanah Anih mah patoeh ih, ukkungnawk tlim ah khosah oh.
15 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
Tidoeh panoek ai kamthunawk to na ngam o sak duem hanah, hmuen kahoih sak hanah Sithaw mah koeh haih.
16 Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
Na loih o boeh, toe to loihhaih to zae sak aephaih bangah patoh ai ah, Sithaw ih tamna ah om oh.
17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
Kami boih khingya oh. Nawkamyanawk to palung oh. Siangpahrang to khingya oh.
18 Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
Tamnanawk, zithaih hoiah nangmacae ukkungnawk khaeah angpaek oh; kahoih moe, poeknaem ukkungnawk khae khue ah na ai, poek kaham ukkungnawk khaeah doeh angpaek oh.
19 For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
Sithaw poekhaih tawnh pongah, sakpazaehaih om ai ah pacaekthlaekhaih hoi patangkhanghaih tongh kami loe pakoeh han krak.
20 For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.
Hmuen na sakpazae o pongah ang boh o naah, palung na sawk o nahaeloe, pakoehhaih timaw na hnu o tih? Toe kahoih hmuen na sak o naah raihaih na tong o nahaeloe, palungsawkhaih hoiah pauep oh, Sithaw hmaa ah talawk thaikoi hmuen ah ni oh.
21 For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,
Hae tiah oh han ih ni ang kawk o: Kri doeh aicae hanah patangkhang toeng, anih ih khok tangkanh na pazui o hanah, aicae khet koi kaom ah a sak boeh:
22 who didn’t sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”
Anih loe zaehaih sah ai, Anih pakhaa ah amsawnlok thuihaih om ai:
23 When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
minawk mah anih kasae thuih o naah, anih mah kasaethuihaih hoiah pathok let ai; anih patangkhang naah, minawk to pazih ai; toe katoengah lokcaekkung khaeah angmah hoi angmah to angpaek:
24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.
zae pongah duek han kaom kaminawk toenghaih hoiah hing o thai hanah, aicae zaehaih to a tak pum hoiah phawh moe, thinglam nuiah angbangh: anih ih kana ahmaa rang hoiah nangcae ngan na tui o.
25 For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
Nangcae loe lam kamkhraeng tuu baktiah na oh o; toe vaihi loe nangcae ih pakhra khenzawnkung hoi tuutoepkung khaeah nam laem o let boeh.
