1 Peter 2
1 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, all evil speaking,
Aa ie fa napoke ze fonga filoa-tiñake, ze hene famañahiañe naho hasoa-piatrefañe naho ty fihàñañe vaho ze fañinjeañe iaby,
2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that all of you may grow thereby:
manahake te ajaja-mena, salalao ty ronono hiringiri’ i tsaray, hitomboa’ areo amy rombakey,
3 If so be all of you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
kanao fa nitsopeke ty hasoa’ i Talè,
4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
naho nimb’ama’e, i Vato veloñe nado’ ondatio fe jinobon’ Añahare vaho toe sarotse ama’ey,
5 All of you also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
le ampitroareñe ka nahareo vato veloñeo, ho anjomban’ arofo, naho fisoroñañe miavake, hañenga soron’ arofo non’ Añahare añam’ Iesoà Norizañey.
6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believes on him shall not be confounded.
Ty amy pinatetse an-tsokitse masiñe ao: Ingo, apoko e Tsione ao ty vaton-kotsoke jinoboñe, vaton-kotsoke sarotse, le tsy ho salatse ty miato ama’e.
7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
I hasarota’ey ho ama’ areo mpiatoo, fe amo manjehatseo le: Nivalike ho vato-kotsoke i vato nado’ o mpandranjioy.
8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, (logos) being disobedient: unto which also they were appointed.
naho ty hoe: Ty vato mahatsikapy naho ty vato mahasirìka. Tsikapie’ i tsaray o mpanjehatseo; fa zay ty nanendreañe iareo.
9 But all of you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, an exclusive people; that all of you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
Fe tariratse jinoboñe nahareo, firimboñam-pisoroñe aman-kasy, fifeheañe miavake, famosora nambahañe ho hanaña’e, hitaroñe ty hasoa’ i nikanjy anahareo hiakatse i ieñey ho ami’ty fireandreaña’e fanjakay.
10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
Amy t’ie tsy nifamosorañe taolo, fe famosoran’ Añahare henaneo; tsy nitretrezeñe fe iferenaiñañe henaneo.
11 Dearly beloved, I plead to you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
O ry noroko, osiheko hoe t’ie ambahiny naho mpañialo, ty hifoneñe amo raha mahatsontso’ i nofotseio naho mifañotakotak’ am-betsevetse ao.
12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Mañaveloa an-kavañonañe amo kilakila’ ndatio, ie mañarinjèñe anahareo hoe tsy vokatse, naho misamba o sata soa’ areoo, ro handrenge an’ Andrianañahare amy androm-pitilihañey.
13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
Aa le miandalia amy ze fifelehañe noriza’ ondatio, ty amy Talè; naho ty mpanjaka, amy te manandily;
14 Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
naho o ragovao amy t’ie nirahe’e handilo o manao ratio vaho handrenge o manao soao.
15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing all of you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
Izay ty satrin’ Añahare, t’ie mitolon-kasoa ro hampitsiñe ty habahimoa’ ondaty seretseo,
16 As free, and not using your liberty for a coat of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
toe haha nahareo, le ko atao fandrongonan-tiñake i fidadàñey, fa iambaneo kanao mpitoron’ Añahare.
17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
Hene iasio, kokò o rolongoo, mañeveña aman’ Añahare, iasio i mpanjakay.
18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the perverse.
Ry mpitoroñeo, iambaneo o tompo’ areoo am-pañeveñañe àmpoñe, tsy t’ie soa naho lem-po avao, fa o mengokeo ka.
19 For this deserves giving of thanks, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
Inao ty mañeva isoke, t’ie mpañeveñe aman’ Añahare, ro mifeake sotry te ampisoañeñe tsy aman-katò.
20 For what glory is it, if, when all of you be buffeted for your faults, all of you shall take it patiently? but if, when all of you do well, and suffer for it, all of you take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
Ino ty tombo’e t’ie mahafifeake lafa ty amo tahiñeo? Ie manao soa te ampisoañeñe vaho mifeak’ am-pahaliñisañe, le hisohen’ Añahare.
21 For even hereunto were all of you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that all of you should follow his steps:
Inao ty nikanjiañe anahareo, kanao nijalea’ i Norizañey, itsikombeo, hañoriha’ areo o lia’eo.
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
Ie tsy nanan-tahiñe, naho tsy nioniñe am-palie’e ty famañahiañe,
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judges righteously:
le ie nonjireñe, tsy namale añ’ ònjitse; ie nijale tsy nañebañe, fe nitolom-piato amy Mpizaka an-katòy.
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes all of you were healed.
Ie ty nivave o hakeon-tikañeo am-pañòva’e an-katae ajale eo, hampihomaheñe o tahiñeo soa te ho veloñe an-kavañonañe tika, fa o fere’eo ro mahajangañe anahareo.
25 For all of you were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Ie nitolom-pandrìke hoe añondry, fe nitampoly amy Mpiarake naho Mpisari’ o arofo’ areooy henaneo.
