1 Bitrus 1
1 Bitrus unan kaduran Yesu Kristi ucindu kiti na nan feriu alenge na iwa malu kiti du Ubuntus, Ugalatiwa, Kappadokiya, Asiya nin Butiniya,
Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect sojourners of the Dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Nan nyan in yisu Kutelle ucif, nan nyan nkusu ulau nruhu, nin dortun nlirun Yesu Kristi, nin zaminu nmyi me. Na ubolu Kuttelle so nan ghinu, a na lissosin limang mine kpin.
according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ. Grace to you, and peace, be multiplied.
3 Na Kutelle nin cif ncikilari bite Yesu Kristi se mmari. Bari ngbardang nkunekune me ufitun in Yesu Kristi nan nya na nan kul na ti tina nase umaru upese nin nayi akone,
Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one having according to his great mercy begotten us again into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 nan nyan ngadu ule na uma nanu ba, na una biju ba ana una wulu ba ina ceo unin kitene kani bar anung.
unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and never fading, having been kept in the heavens unto you,
5 Nan nya likara Kutelle idi nin icessu nan nyan in yinnu sa uyenu bara utucu ule na ima dursu kubi nimalin.
who are preserved by the power of God through faith unto the salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 sun liburi libo nan nya nilele, nene imon gbardang nta minu liburi lisirne bara udumunuzu nan nayiri gbardang
In whom you rejoice, if however it is needful, being grieved a little while among manifold temptations: in order
7 Una so nani bara inan dumuna uyinnu mine sa cuyenu, uyinnu sa uyenu ule na ukatin finariya nin gegame tongo na ina ti nla inan yene ngegeme fining as a finana. Una so nani bara uyinnu sa ciyemu bite nan se uzazunu nin gongong a ughantinu kubi nsa in Yesu Kristi.
that the trial of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, however being tried by the fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor in the revelation of Jesus Christ:
8 Na ina yene ghe ba, ana idi nin su me, Na iyene ghe nene ba, ama ina yinin minghe idi nin nayi abo, nin nayi abo ale na akatin ubellu ana alenge na a kulun nin gongong.
whom you not seeing, love with divine love; on whom, not looking, but believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 Idin seru ntueu tilai mine bara uyinnu sa uyenu mine.
receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 A Annabawa na dortu ipizira nin nonku nibinai ublen ntueu ulele nin bolu Kutelle ulenge na udi un bite.
Concerning which salvation the prophets, who prophesied concerning the grace towards you, sought out and investigated,
11 Iwa pizuru iyinin uyapin utucuari din cinu ikuru ipizira nin kome kubeari uruhu Nkristi ulenge nan nya mine wadin liru naan ghiru kitene. Uwa so nani a belle nani a kubi dutu ubelen nniu Nkristi nin gongong me na mina dofughe.
searching into what, or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ who was in them, witnessing the sufferings towards Christ, and the glories after these, did show:
12 Iwa duro a Annabawe utucue, na bara atimine ba, ama nara ubellun nluru ntucue nan nyan Ruhu ulenge na ina tumun unuzu kitene Kutelle imon ilenge na imung anan kadura Kutelle wa piziru i durso.
to whom it was revealed, because they were ministering not these things for themselves, but for you, which are now proclaimed unto you by those who preach to you the gospel with the Holy Ghost having been sent from heaven; into which things the angels desire to look down.
13 Bara nani son dan inonko nibinai mine, iceo ayi mine kitene nbolu Kutelle na ima diminu mun kubi nsa in Yesu Kristi.
Therefore having girded up the loins of your minds, being perfectly sober, hope unto the grace which is conferred on you in the revelation of Jesus Christ.
14 Nato nono ndortu nliru na iwa ni ati mine ntok nile imon na amung yiru ining ba.
As children of obedience, not being fashioned after your former lusts in ignorance:
15 Nato ulenge na nan yicila minu adi lau, amung wang, yitan lau nan nya na dadu mine.
but according to the Holy One who has called you. Be ye also holy in all your deportment;
16 Nato na ina nyerting, “yitan lau, bara na meng wang di lau”.
because it has been written, Ye shall be holy; because I am holy.
17 Andi idin yicui ucif, ulenge na adin sa ushara sa usu liti adin su unin unuzun katwa in ko uyeme unit, sun lissosin nca mine nan nya ntoltuno nati.
And if you call upon the Father, the One judging without respect of persons according to the work of each, pass the time of your sojourn with fear,
18 Anung yiru na iwa seru minu nin nizinariya sa azurta imon nanuzu ba, sa lissosin tilalang na ina se kiti na cif mine,
knowing that you have been redeemed from your depraved character transmitted from your ancestors, not by corruptible things, silver or gold,
19 ana nin nmii mi lau nmiu Gono Kutelle min salin dinong.
but by the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and spotless:
20 Iwa fere Kristi ku kafin ituno uyii ulele, ana nan nya nayiri nimalin ina durso minu ame.
foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but having been made manifest at the last of the times for the sake of you,
21 unuzu mere ina yinin nin Kutelle, ulenge na Kutelle wa fyaghe nan nya na nan kul, ulenge na ana nighe ngogong bara uyinnu sa uyenu mine nan se ayi akone kiti Kutelle.
who through him are faithful toward God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope are toward God.
22 Ina ti ati mine lau nan nya dortu kidegen, bara usu kidegen linuana, yitan nin su linuana kang nan nya nibinau mine.
Having purified your souls through obedience of the truth unto unhypocritical, brotherly love, fervently from the heart love one another with divine love:
23 Ina kuru imara minu tutung na nin nimus in bijizu ba ana nin in salin bijizu, unuzun na nan lai nin gisin nliru Kutelle. (aiōn g165)
having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible, through the word of God, who lives and abides. (aiōn g165)
24 Bara nidowo vat masin nafo ukpiari a vat ngogong me nafo kuburin nkpi.
Therefore all flesh is as grass, and all its glory as the flower of grass: the grass is withered, and the flower fell off;
