1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Nene Petili mtumi wa Yesu Kilisitu, nikuvayandikila nyenye vandu mwemuhaguliwi na Chapanga, ndi mwampechangini na mwitama ngati vajumbiswa kwenuko Ponto na Galatia na Kapodokia na Asia na Bisunia.
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
Dadi Chapanga avamanyili na avahagwili nyenye kuhumila kadeni kulandana na uganu waki, na mkitiwi mwavamsopi kwa mpungu, muni mumyidakila Yesu Kilisitu na kunyambiswa kwa ngasi yaki. Nikuvaganila ubwina na uteke wamahele.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Chapanga alumbiwa na Dadi wa BAMBU witu Yesu Kilisitu! Kwa lipyana laki likulu atikitili tivelekewa upya kwa kumyukisa Yesu. Lilovi lenili litipelili huvalila ya magono goha gangali mwishu,
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that does not fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
na hinu tilindila kupata vindu vyabwina vyangahotoleka kuwola amala kuhalabika amala kujimika, ndi Chapanga avavikili vandu vaki kunani.
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Na nyenye mvikiwa ulonda kwa makakala ga Chapanga kwa njila ya sadika mupatayi usangula. Usangula wenuwo Weutendelekiwi kugubukuliwa mumagono ga mwishu.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
Mhekelela ndava ya lijambu lenilo, pamonga hinu, kwa lukumbi luhupi, yati mganikiwa kung'ahika ndava ya kulingiwa mu njila ndalindali.
7 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 honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ—
Kulingiwa kwenuko ndi kugana kulola sadika yinu ndi ya chakaka. Hati zahabu yene yeyihalabika yilingiwa kwa motu, mewawa na sadika yinu, ndi chindu chivaha kuliku zahabu, ndi yiganikiwa yilingiwa muni yisindimala. Penapo yati mwipokela ulumbiwa na ukulu na kutopeswa ligono lila Yesu Kilisitu peibwela.
8 whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you do not see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,
Hati ngati mwangamuwona, mumganili, ngati hati hinu mukumuwona lepi, nyenye mukumusadika. Mwiheka kwa luheku lukulu lwangajoveka,
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
ndava mwipokela chila chemwichilonda, ndava ya kusadika kwinu, ndi kusanguliwa kwinu.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
Vamlota va Chapanga vakitili umang'omesi na kukotakesa neju ndava ya usangula wula, vakalota ndava ya njombi ndi nyenye ngamupewili.
11 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow them.
Vaganayi kumanya lukumbi lwoki na yivya wuli. Kwa chindu chenicho cha ajovili Mpungu wa Kilisitu mweavi mugati yavi, mwealongolili kujova kuvya Kilisitu yati gakumkolela mang'ahiso na ukulu weubwela.
12 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.
Chapanga avagubukulili vamlota avo ngati vangajihengala vene nambu ndi vevahengili nyenye mwemwamali kuyuwana, pevajovili mambu gala ndi gemyuwini kuhuma kwa vandu vevikokosa Lilovi la Bwina kwa njila ya Mpungu wa Chapanga mweatumwili kuhuma kunani. Hati vamitumi va kunani kwa Chapanga vinogela kumanya.
13 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 Jesus Christ—
Hinu, mjitendelekela neju, na mvya mihu na mjilongosa mwavene. Mvika huvalila yinu yoha kwa mumota yila yemwipewa lukumbi Yesu Kilisitu peigubukuliwayi!
14 as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
Mvya ngati vana va Chapanga veviyidakila, mkoto kutama kwa kulanda kangi mnogo wa uhakau ngati wemwavili nawu lukumbi pemwangamanya Chapanga.
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior,
Nambu mganikiwa muvya vandu vamsopi mumatendu ginu goha gemwikita, ngati Chapanga mweavakemili cheavili msopi.
16 because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
Muni Mayandiku Gamsopi gijova “Mvya va Msopi, muni Nene ndi Msopi.”
17 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,
Pemukumuyupa Chapanga, nyenye mkumkemela Dadi. Hinu, mmanya kuvya mwene akumhamula kila mundu ngati cheakitili, Chapanga angahagula. Hinu mtama bwina pamulima apa ngati vayehi kwa kumtopesa neju Chapanga.
18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things like silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
Muni mmanyili kuvya nyenye mwasanguliwi kuhuma mulugendu lwa chiyimu, gemwapokili kuhuma kwa vagogo vinu. Nambu mwasanguliwi lepi kwa vindu vyevihalabika, ngati maganga ga feza na zahabu,
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Christ,
nambu yavili kwa ngasi ya Kilisitu yeyivii chindu chivaha neju. Mweavi ngati mwana limbelele mwanga chilema amala libala.
20 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
Ahaguliwi na Chapanga kwakona kuwumbiwa mulima uwu, nambu agubukuliwi magono aga ga mwishu ndava yinu.
21 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.
Kwa kupitila Kilisitu, mkumsadika Chapanga, mweamyukisi na mweamlumbili, hinu sadika yinu na huvalila yinu yivya kwa Chapanga.
22 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,
Hinu ndava munyambiswi mtima kwa kuyidakili uchakaka, muni muvagana vayinu changali uhomela. Mganana nyenye kwa nyenye kwa mtima woha.
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and remaining word of God.
Ndava muni nyenye mpewili wumi wa mupya, lepi ngati vana vevahumili kwa mundu mweifwa nambu Dadi mweitama magono goha gangali mwishu, kwa njila ya ujumbi wa Chapanga weuvi mumi na weusindimala. (aiōn g165)
24 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;
Ngati Mayandiku Gamsopi chegijova, “Kila mundu ndi ngati mahamba, na ukulu waki woha ndi ngati maluva ga mudahi. Ginyala na maluva gigwa.
