1 Peter 1
1 This letter comes from Peter, apostle of Jesus Christ, and is sent to God's chosen people: exiles scattered throughout the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia.
IET ngai Petrus wanporon en Iesus Kristus amen ong me pilipildar ren me kaikairu pakasar lang Pontus, Kalesia, Kapadosien, Asien o Pitinien.
2 You were chosen by God the Father in his wisdom, made holy by the Spirit, so that you might obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood. May you have grace and peace more and more!
Me pilipildar pan kupur en Kot Sam, ap kasaraui kila Ngen, pwen peik o makelekeleda pan ntan Iesus Kristus. Mak o popol en rok re omail!
3 Praise God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! Through his great mercy we have been born again and given a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
Kaping ong Kot, o Sam en Kaun patail Iesus Kristus, me kotin kaipwi kap kitail ong kaporopor maur, pweki a kalangan lapalap pan Iesus Kristus a iasadar sang ren me melar akan,
4 This inheritance is eternal, it never spoils or fades, and it is kept safe in heaven for you.
Ong soso eu, me sota pan dukedi o so samin, o so mongedi, me nekinekid ong komail nanlang.
5 Through your trust in him, God will protect you by his power until salvation arrives—the salvation that is ready to be revealed at the last day.
Komail me pakolekoleki mana en Kot ni poson ong maur potopot, me pan sansaldo ni imwin ran akan.
6 So be glad about this, even though you may be sad for a short while as you endure various trials.
Iran met komail kin peren kida, murin omail insensuedeki songesong kai ansau motomot, ma i duen kupur a.
7 These prove that your trust in God is genuine, just as fire is used to prove if gold is genuine—even though that too can be destroyed—and your faith is more valuable than gold! In this way your trust in God will be recognized and you will receive praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ appears.
Pwe omail poson en diarokada ni pung o, pan kasampwal sang kold sor, a me kin diarok kida kisiniai, men kaping, o lingan, o wau, ni en Iesus Kristus a pan sansaleda.
8 You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you cannot see him now, you trust in him and you're filled with wonderful, indescribable happiness.
Me komail sota kilanger, ari so, komail kin pok ong i, o komail kin poson i, me komail sota kin kilang ansau wet, a i me komail kin peren kida peren laud kaualapia.
9 Your reward for trusting in him is that you will be saved!
I me pan kare ong komail imwin omail poson, iei dorelan ngen omail.
10 It was this salvation that the prophets searched for and investigated when they spoke of the grace that was prepared for you.
Iei maur o, me saukop oko raparapaki o kalekalelapok, me kokop kida mak, me pan pwara dong komail.
11 They tried to find out when and how this would take place, for the Spirit of Christ inside them spoke clearly about Christ's sufferings and glory to come.
O re raparapaki, iad ansau o duen ansau me Ngen en Kristus me kotikot re’rail, kotin kasaledar, o me kotin kokopkido kamekam en Kristus o a lingan, me mi muri.
12 It was explained to them that they were not doing this for themselves, but for you—since what they spoke about you've now learned from those who shared the good news with you by the Holy Spirit that heaven sent. Even the angels are eager to find out about all this!
A pakair pwara dong irail, kaidin pwen papa pein irail, a komail, rap kalok ong komail er sang ren me padaki ong komail rongamau ki Ngen saraui, me pakadarado sang nanlang, me pil tounlang kan inong iong kilang.
13 Make sure your minds are in gear. Be clear-headed. Fix your hope exclusively on the grace you'll be given when Jesus is revealed.
I me komail en katengedi longelonge en ngen omail. Komail masamasan o kaporoporeki melel mak en Kot, me pan wisike dong komail ni en Iesus Kristus a pan sansaleda.
14 Live like children that do what they're told. Don't allow yourselves to be shaped by your former sinful desires when you didn't know any better.
Komail dueta seri en peik kan, komail der paroki ong inong sued en mas o, me mi re omail ni ansaun omail rotorot.
15 Now you need to be holy in everything you do, just as the one who called you is holy.
A duen i, me kotin molipe komail er, me saraui, iduen komail en pil saraui ni song en wiawia karos.
16 As Scripture says, “You are to be holy, for I am holy.”
Pwe a intingidier: Komail en saraui, pwe ngai me saraui.
17 Since you call him Father, and recognize he judges everyone impartially based on what they do, take your time here on earth seriously, respecting him.
O ma komail pan kapakap ong Sam, me sota kotin lipilipil aramas amen, pwe a pan kotin kadeikada duen dodok en amen amen, komail ari kekeide ki ni masak arain omail kaikairu nin sappa et.
18 You already know that you were not set free from your pointless way of living that you inherited from your forefathers by things that don't have lasting value, like silver or gold.
Pwe komail asa, kaidin kapwa sor: Silper de kold, me komail kamaio kila sang omail dadaurata kaudok o, me men kaua padokedi ong komail,
19 You were set free by the costly blood of Christ, who was like a lamb with no flaw or defect.
A ki ntan Kristus kasampwal dueta sippul amen, me so samin o so muaimuai.
20 He was chosen before the world was created, but he was revealed in these last days for your benefit.
Me kileledier mon sappa pasonedier, ap sansaleda ni imwin ran akan pweki komail.
21 Through him you trust in God who raised him from the dead, and glorified him, so that you could have confidence and hope in God.
Komail me poson Kot ki i, me Kot kotin kaiasadar sang ren me melar akan, ap kotin kalinganada i, pwe komail en poson o kaporoporeki Kot.
22 Now that you've dedicated yourselves by following the truth, love each other sincerely like a true family.
O komail kamakelekeleki ngen omail ni peik o melel, pwen pokepoke melel ri omail akan. Komail ari tengeteng limpok pena sang mongiong omail makelekel.
23 You've been born again, not the product of a mortal “seed,” but immortal, through the living, eternal word of God. (aiōn g165)
Dueta ir, me ip sapal, kaidin sang ni wa mor, a sang ni me somor, iet: Sang nan masan maur en Kot, me pan duedueta. (aiōn g165)
24 For: “All people are like grass, and all their glory like wildflowers. The grass withers and the flowers fall.
Pwe uduk karos me rasong rä, o ar lingan karos me rasong masal en wan rä. Rä o mongidier o masal en wan rä moredier.
