1 Peter 5
1 Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Koa ny amin’ ny loholona izay eo aminareo, izaho, izay naman ny loholona sy vavolombelon’ ny fijalian’ i Kristy ary mpiombona ny voninahitra efa haseho koa, dia mananatra azy hoe:
2 shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
Andraso ny ondrin’ Andriamanitra izay eo aminareo, mitandrina azy tsy an-terỳ, fa amin’ ny sitrapo [araka an’ Andriamanitra]; tsy amin’ ny fitiavana harena maloto, fa amin’ ny zotom-panahy;
3 not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
tsy ho mpanjakazaka, amin’ ny anjara-fiandrasana, fa ho fianaran’ ny ondry.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
Ary rehefa miseho ny Lohan’ ny mpiandry, dia hahazo ny satro-boninahitra tsy mety simba ianareo,
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Ary ianareo izay mbola tanora fanahy kosa, dia maneke ny loholona. Eny, samia misikìna fanetren-tena ianareo ka mifanompoa; fa “Andriamanitra manohitra ny miavonavona, fa manome fahasoavana ho an’ ny manetry tena”.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
Koa amin’ izany manetre tena ambanin’ ny tàna-maherin’ Andriamanitra, mba hanandratany anareo amin’ ny fotoan’ andro;
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
ary apetraho aminy ny fanahianareo rehetra; fa Izy no miahy anareo.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Mahonòna tena, miambena: fa ny devoly fahavalonareo mandehandeha tahaka ny liona mierona mitady izay harapany;
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
tohero izy, ka miorena tsara amin’ ny finoana ianareo, satria fantatrareo fa izany fahoriana izany dia manjo ny rahalahinareo rehetra eran’ izao tontolo izao.
10 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. (aiōnios g166)
Ary Andriamanitry ny fahasoavana rehetra, Izay efa niantso anareo ho any amin’ ny voninahiny mandrakizay ao amin’ i Kristy, rehefa niaritra fahoriana vetivety ianareo, dia Izy no hahatanteraka sy hampiorina ary hampitoetra anareo. (aiōnios g166)
Ho Azy anie ny fanjakana mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
Efa manoratra teny fohifohy ho aminareo aho hampitondraina an’ i Silasy, izay ataoko ho rahalahy mahatoky, dia mananatra anareo aho ka manambara fa izany no tena fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra, ― tomoera tsara amin’ izany ianareo.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
Izay any Babylona, voafidy ho namanareo, manao veloma anareo, ary Marka zanako koa.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Mifanaova veloma amin’ ny fanoroham-pitiavana. Ho aminareo rehetra izay ao amin’ i Kristy anie ny fiadanana.
