1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Petro mtume wa Yesu Kristo, na ageni ba baganike baba saulikwe katika Ponto yoti, Garatia, Kapadokia, Asia na Bithinia.
2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, (pneuma) unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
Buka nitangite Ninungu, Baba, kwo takaswa na Roho mtakatifu, kwa kumwubiliya Yesu Kristo, na kwo jitililikwa myai yake. Neema ibe kwinu na amani yinu iyongekeye.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Nnungu tati wa Bwana witu Yesu Kristo na angali. Katika ukulo wa Rehema yake atetupapa wayambi na ujasili wa urithi pitya kwo yuke Yesu Kristo pitya muwafu.
4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fades not away, reserved in heaven for you,
Kwa urithi wa wangalilumya, wangalibana na usapu wa Pungwa, Utibikilwa kwa Nnungu ajili yinu.
5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Kwa uwezo wa Nnungu tundalindilikwa Pitya imani kwa wokovu ambao ubile tayali kwa umukulwa katika masoba ya mwisho.
6 Wherein all of you greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, all of you are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
Mupulaike katika lino, mubagane sayeno lazima kwinu bona uzuni katika kumpaya kwa aina mbalembale.
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
Yino ni kwasababu imani yinu iyongekeye kumpayanga, imani yoni ya thamani kuliko Dhahabu ambayo indaoba katika mwoto ambao iipakia imani yino. Yino tokea imani yino ipate beleka sifa, utukufu, na heshima katika kumumu kwa Yesu Kristo.
8 Whom having not seen, all of you love; in whom, though now all of you see him not, yet believing, all of you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
Munamonali ywembe lakini mumpendile, munamonali sayino lakini muamini katika ywembe na mupulaike kweli kweli kwa pula ambayo ipatike utukufu.
9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Sayino mwendapokya mwabene matokeo ga imani yino, wokovu wanafsi yinu.
10 Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
Manabii butepala na lokia kwa umakini usu wkovu wuno, nusu Neema ambayo yinu.
11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit (pneuma) of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
Bupalite tanga ndila yaku ya wokovu wo isa. Bapalite kae pala tanga muda gani Roho ya Kristo ywa bile nkati yabe abile kalongela nabo namani, yino yabile kaipitya wakati Pabile kaba bakiya mapema husu mateso ga Yesu Kristo na utukufu waupeleke kunkingama.
12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Spirit (pneuma) sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
Baumukulilwe manabii kwamba babile kamatumukia mamba aga na twenga kwa ajiri yabe bena, ila kwa ajili yinu, simulya kwa mambo aga pitya kwa balu babaleta injili ya Roho mtakatifu ywa tumilwe buka Mbinguni, mambo ambayo hata Malaika bapendi umukulwa kwabe.
13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
Kwa njo mutabe iuno yino, kwa malango ginu. Mutame liki katika wasakwinu. Mube na ujasiri woubelikwa kwa neema ya Yaisa kwinu wakati wa wamwau mukulikwa kwa Yesu Kristo.
14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
Kati bana babayuwa, kwane mwitabe mwabone na tamaa mwatikwikingama wakati pamwabile ntupu tanga.
15 But as he which has called you is holy, so be all of you holy in all manner of conversation;
Kwanjo kati mwankemite mwabile mtakatifu, na mwenga mube mwatakatifukatika tabia yinu yote maishani.
16 Because it is written, Be all of you holy; for I am holy.
kwa njo batiandika “Mube mwatakatifu kwa sababu ata nenga nantakatifu”.
17 And if all of you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:
Na mwana mwakwe matate yulu ywa ukumu kwa haki alinga na kasi ya kila mundu, tutumi muda wa mwanja witu katika unyenyekevu.
18 Forasmuch as all of you know that all of you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
Mutangite kwa njo yabile kwa ela, wa dhahabu -li kwa ilebe yai nyamaruka ambayo ititukombwa Buka mutabi ya itu ya kijinga ambayo yatuyi ganilwe na “ttati” bitu.
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Kwa njo muti kombolekwa kwa miyai ya ishima ya Kristo, na kati Ngondolo ywa bile na kila li dowa.
20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
Kristo ate saulikwa kabia ya msingi wa lunia, kwanjo sayeno machuba ga mwiso, muteumukulwa kwinu.
21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.
Mumwubilya Nn”ungu pitya ywembe atikumpeya utukufu ili kwamba Imani yinu na ujasiri ube katika Nn”ungu.
22 Seeing all of you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit (pneuma) unto sincere love of the brethren, see that all of you love one another with a pure heart fervently:
Muipangite nafsi kwipanga sodi kwa yikita kwinu kweli, kwa dhumuni pendo la kiulongo lyalibile na unyofu, kwa njo mupendane kwa bidii buka pa mwoyo winu.
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word (logos) of God, which lives and abides for ever. (aiōn g165)
Mubelekwile mora inebile, sio kwa mbeyu yaiaribike, lakini buka kwa mbegu yange aribikea, pitya ukoti na neno lya Nn”ungu lyalijingile. (aiōn g165)
24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower thereof falls away:
Kwa njo yega yoti ni makapi, na utukufu wake woti katimaluba na makapi, makapi yuma na maluba tumbuka.
