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 emissary of Yeshua the Messiah, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Diaspora in 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, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Yeshua the Messiah and be sprinkled with his blood: 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 be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah 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.
to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
5 Nan nya likara Kutelle idi nin icessu nan nyan in yinnu sa uyenu bara utucu ule na ima dursu kubi nimalin.
who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a 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 this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
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 proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honour at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah—
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, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,
9 Idin seru ntueu tilai mine bara uyinnu sa uyenu mine.
receiving the result 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 this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
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 for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Messiah which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Messiah and the glories that would follow them.
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 them it was revealed that they served not themselves, but you, in these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
13 Bara nani son dan inonko nibinai mine, iceo ayi mine kitene nbolu Kutelle na ima diminu mun kubi nsa in Yesu Kristi.
Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober, and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah—
14 Nato nono ndortu nliru na iwa ni ati mine ntok nile imon na amung yiru ining ba.
as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
15 Nato ulenge na nan yicila minu adi lau, amung wang, yitan lau nan nya na dadu mine.
but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behaviour,
16 Nato na ina nyerting, “yitan lau, bara na meng wang di lau”.
because it is written, “You shall be holy, for 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.
If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man’s work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent 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 were redeemed, not with corruptible things like silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
19 ana nin nmii mi lau nmiu Gono Kutelle min salin dinong.
but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Messiah,
20 Iwa fere Kristi ku kafin ituno uyii ulele, ana nan nya nayiri nimalin ina durso minu ame.
who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
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 believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Ina ti ati mine lau nan nya dortu kidegen, bara usu kidegen linuana, yitan nin su linuana kang nan nya nibinau mine.
Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,
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 born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. (aiōn g165)
24 Bara nidowo vat masin nafo ukpiari a vat ngogong me nafo kuburin nkpi.
For, “All flesh is like grass, and all of man’s glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
