1 Pedro 3

1 Halaber emazteac suiet diraden bere senharrén, baldineta batzu hitzaren desobedient badirade, emaztén conuersationeaz hitza gabe irabaz ditecençat,

So also ye wives, be ye subject to your husbands; that, by your pleasing behavior, ye may gain over, without difficulty, those who obey not the word,

2 Ikussi duqueitenean çuen conuersatione caste beldurrequin dena:

when they see, that ye conduct yourselves with reverence and chastity.

3 Ceinén ornamendua eztén lekoreco bilo içurduratan, edo vrrhezco paramendutan, edo abillamenduetaco habitutan:

And adorn not yourselves with the external ornaments of curls of the hair, or of golden trinkets, or of costly garments.

4 Baina bihotzeco guiçon gordea, spiritu eme eta sossegu batetaco incorruptionean consistitzen dena, cein baita Iaincoaren aitzinean precioso.

But adorn yourselves in the hidden person of the heart, with a mild and uncorrupted spirit, an ornament that is precious before God.

5 Ecen hunela lehenago emazte sainda Iaincoa baithan sperança çutenac-ere appaincen ciraden, suiet ciradelaric bere senharrén:

For so also the holy women of old, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, and were subject to their husbands:

6 Sarac Abraham obeditzen çuen beçala, hura iaun deitzen çuela, ceinen alaba eguin içan baitzarete, vngui eguiten duçuela, eta eceinere iciapenen beldur etzaretela.

just as Sarah was subject to Abraham, and called him, My lord: whose daughters ye are, by good works, while ye are not terrified by any fear.

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.

And ye husbands, likewise, dwell with your wives according to knowledge, and hold them in honor, as the feebler vessels; because they also will inherit with you the gift of eternal life: and let not your prayers be hindered.

8 Eta finalqui guciac çareten consentimendu batetaco eta compassione batetaco, fraternalqui onhetsle çaretelaric misericordioso, gratioso:

The summing up, is, that ye all be in harmony, that ye be sympathetic with them who suffer, and affectionate one to another, and be merciful and kind.

9 Gaitza gaitzagatic rendatzen eztuçuela edo iniuria iniuriagatic, baina contrariora, benedicatzen duçuela: daquiçuelaric ecen hartara deithuac çaretela, benedictionezco heretagea possedi deçaçuençát.

And that ye recompense to no one evil for evil, neither railing for railing; but, in contrariety to these, that ye bless: for to this were ye called, that ye might inherit a blessing.

10 Ecen nahi duenac onhetsi vicia, eta ikussi egun onac, beguira beça bere mihia gaitzetaric, eta bere ezpainac enganioren pronuntiatzetic:

Therefore, whoever chooseth life, and desireth to see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile;

11 Itzul bedi gaizquitic, eta begui vngui: bilha beça baquea, eta iarreiqui bequió hari.

let him turn away from evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and follow after 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 upon the righteous, and his ears ready to hear them: but the face of the Lord is against the wicked.

13 Eta nor da çuey calteric eguinen drauçuena, baldin vnguiari baçarreitzate?

And who will do you harm, if ye are zealous of good works?

14 Baina baldin cerbait suffritzen baduçue vngui eguinagatic, dohatsu çarete. Baina hayén beldurrez icit etzaiteztela, ezeta trubla:

But if it should occur, that ye suffer on account of righteousness, happy are ye. And be not terrified, by those who would terrify you, nor be agitated:

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 Messiah, in your hearts. And be ye ready for a vindication, before every one who demandeth of you an account of the hope of your faith,

16 Conscientia ona duçuelaric: çuen contra gaizquiguiléz beçala minço diraden gauçán, confus diradençat, çuen conuersatione Christ baithango ona calumniatzen dutenac.

in meekness and respect, as having a good conscience; so that they who speak against you as bad men, may be ashamed, for having calumniated your good conduct in the Messiah.

17 Ecen hobe da vngui eguiten duçuela affligi çaitezten, baldin Iaincoaren vorondateac hala nahi badu, ecen ez gaizqui eguiten duçuela.

For it is profitable to you, that ye suffer evil while ye do good deeds, if this should be the pleasure of God; and not, while ye do evil deeds.

18 Ecen Christec-ere behin bekatuagatic suffritu vkan du, iustoac iniustoacgatic: gu Iaincoagana eraman guençançát, haraguiz mortificaturic, baina viuificaturic Spirituaz.

For the Messiah also once died for our sins, the righteous for sinners; that he might bring you to God. And he died in body, but lived in spirit.

19 Cein Spirituz carceleco spirituey-ere partituric predicatu vkan baitraue,

And he preached to those souls, which were detained in Hades,

20 Lehenago desobedient ciradeney, behin beha cegoenean Iaincoaren patientiá Noeren egunetan, appaincen cenean arká: ceinetan gutiac, da iaquiteco, çortzi arima salua baitzitecen vrez:

which were formerly disobedient, in the days of Noah, when the long suffering of God commanded an ark to be made, in hope of their repentance; and eight souls only entered into it, and were kept alive in the waters.

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:

And ye also, by a like figure, are made alive by baptism, (not when ye wash your bodies from filth, but when ye confess God with a pure conscience, ) and by the resurrection of Jesus the Messiah;

22 Cein baita Iaincoaren escuinean, cerurát ioanic, ceini suiet eguin baitzaitza Aingueruäc, eta puissançac eta verthuteac.

who is taken up to heaven, and is on the right hand of God, and angels, and authorities, and powers, are subject to him.

A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
