< 1 Peter 3 >

1 In like manner, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any do not obey the word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word;
Kamano un bende mon luoruru chwou, mondo ka moko kuomgi pok oyie to gilokre, ok nikech wecheu to nikech timbeu maler,
2 seeing your pure behavior in fear.
ka gineno bidhruok gi luor mar ngimau.
3 Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing;
Ber maru ok onego onenre mana kuom gik mulichogo dendu ma oko: kaka kado wich gi rwako bangli mag dhahabu kod lewni ma nengogi tek.
4 but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God very precious.
To chutho ber maru onego obed mano maiye, ma en ber madier mar chuny mamuol kendo mokwe ma en gima duongʼ moloyo e wangʼ Nyasaye.
5 For this is how the holy women before, who hoped in God also adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
Nikech kamano e kaka mon maler machon mane oketo genogi kuom Nyasaye ne loso bergi maiye. Ne giwinjo wach chwogi,
6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.
mana kaka Sara, mane winjo Ibrahim kendo luonge ni ruodhe. Un udoko nyige ka utimo gik mabeyo gi chir ma ok uluoro gimoro.
7 You husbands, in like manner, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered.
Un chwo bende nyaka udag gi mondeu kuweyonegi korgi. Migiuru luor kaka chwech mangʼaw kendo kaka jouteu muchamogo mich mar ngima momiu kuom ngʼwono. Kutimo kamano to onge gima biro mono lemou chopo e nyim Nyasaye.
8 Finally, be all like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tenderhearted, humble,
Mogik, neuru ni un duto un gi chuny achiel kod paro achiel, kuheroru kaka owete, kendo beduru mamuol kendo mangʼwon.
9 not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but instead blessing; because to this were you called, that you may inherit a blessing.
Kik uchul richo kar richo, kata ayany kar ayany kar timo kamano to gwedhuru agwedha, nikech mano omiyo noluongou, mondo uyud gweth.
10 For, "He who would love life, and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit.
Mana kaka Muma wacho niya, “Ngʼato angʼata mohero ngima kendo ni gigeno kuom ndalo mabiro mabeyo, nyaka ogengʼ lewe kik wuo marach kendo ogengʼ dhoge kuom wacho miriambo.
11 Let him turn away from evil, and do good. Let him seek peace, and pursue it.
Nyaka olokre owe timbe maricho mi otim tim maber; nyaka omany kwe kendo oluwe.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil."
Nikech wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye ni kuom joma kare kendo ite winjo lamogi, to Jehova Nyasaye mon gi joma timo gik maricho.”
13 Now who is he who will harm you, if you become zealous of that which is good?
Ere ngʼama dihinyu ka uikoru mar timo gima ber?
14 But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. "And do not fear what they fear, nor be troubled."
To kata ka ochuno ni nyaka une sand kuom gima kare mutimo, to un joma ogwedhi. “Kik uluor gik ma giluoro, kendo kata bwok kik ubwogi.”
15 But sanctify in your hearts Messiah as Lord; and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with humility and fear:
To miuru Kristo duongʼ ei chunyu kaka Ruoth Maler. Beduru moikore kinde duto mar dwoko ngʼato mopenjou gimomiyo un gi geno ma un-gono. To timuru kamano gi muolo kod luor.
16 having a good conscience; so that when they speak evil against you, they may be put to shame who slander your good manner of life in Messiah.
Rituru chunyu maler maonge bura, mondo timbeu mabeyo kuom Kristo okuod wi joma wuoyo kuomu marach.
17 For it is better, if it is God's will, that you suffer for doing well than for doing evil.
En gima ber ka en dwaro Nyasaye, mondo osand ngʼato kuom timo maber moloyo ka ngʼato yudo sand kuom timo richo.
18 Because Messiah also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
Nikech Kristo notho ni richo dichiel kendo mogik, ngʼat makare notho kar joma richo mondo okelu ir Nyasaye. Ne oneg ringre, to kata kamano nomiye bedo mangima kuom Roho.
19 in which he also went and made a proclamation to the spirits in prison,
Kuom mano, nodhi moyalo ne chunje manie twech,
20 who before were disobedient, when God waited patiently in the days of Noah, while the box-shaped ship was being built. In it, few, that is, eight souls, were saved by means of water.
mane otamore winjo Nyasaye chon gi lala kane Nyasaye orito amingʼa e kinde mane Nowa hondhoe yie. Ji manok kende maromo ji aboro, ema ne okwo kokalo e pi e yieno.
21 This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you—not the removal of dirt from the body, but an appeal to God for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus (the) Messiah,
Pigno en ranyisi mar batiso makoro warou sani, batiso ok en golo chilo kuom ringruok, to en singruok motim ne Nyasaye gi chuny maler. Owarou kuom chier mar Yesu Kristo,
22 who is at the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
moseidho e polo kendo koro obet e bat korachwich mar Nyasaye, ka malaike duto gi loch kod teko duto winjo chikne.
