< 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,
Petro, nsung'ua ghwa Yesu kilisite, kulyumue vabaghulivua, kuvasalulua, mu Pontoon joni, Galatia, Kapadokia, Asia ni Bithinia,
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.
kuhuma muvwelevua vwa Nguluve, Nhata, kuvalasivua nu Mhepo Mwimike, mulwa kumwoghopa u Yesu kiliste, na kuvalasivua vwimila idanda jaake. Uvumofu vuve numue, nu lutengano lwinu lwongelele.
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,
U Nguluve uNhaata ghwa Mutwa ghwitu Yesu kilisite aghinuaghe. Mulusungu ulwake uluvaha, alyatuholile vupia vwimila kukunsusia u Yesu kilisite kuhuma muva vufue,
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
kuuti twupile silo uNguluve alyalaghile kukuvapeela avanhu vaake avaviikile isio kukyanya kuno nasivola, nambe kunangika, nambe kusakala.
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Unguluve mungufu sake, ikuvalola vunofu vwimila ulwitiko lwinu kuvupoki vuno alig'hanisie kukuvahufia unsiki ughwa vusililo.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
Muhovokaghe vwimila uluo, napanolino munoghile kusukunala vwimila ingelo sino silipapinga.
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—
Uluo, ulwakuva ulwitiko lwinulwinu luve mungelo, ulwitiko luno lunoghile kukila isahabu, jino jinangika mu mwoto ghuno ghughela ulwitiko lwinu, ulu luhumile kuuti ulwitiko lwinu luuve ulunyakupaala, ulunyakughinia, muvwoghopua mukighono ikya kugomoka u Yesu kilite.
8 whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,
Umwene namumbwene, looli mumughanile. Namukumwagha lino, poope vwimila vwamwene muli nu lukeelo luno nalujoveka kulukelo luno lumemilue nu lughinio.
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
Vwimila ulwitiko lwinu lino mukwupila jumue, uvupoki vwa mojo ghinu.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
Avavili vakalolesyagha fijo na vakaposelesia vakagule vule ilikuvapoka
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.
Ulwakuva uMhepo kilisite juno alyale mun'kate muveene, ilipumuka napambele iiva nu vuvaha. Valonda kuuti vakagule unsiki muki uMhepo wa kilisite juno alimun'kate muvanave alyale ijova keke navene. Ulu lulyahumile unsiki ghono alyale ikuvavula kuuti imumuko sa Kilisite nuvwimila vuno ngalivumbingilile.
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.
Akavahufia avaviili kuuti imbombo jave ijakuvila najilyale vwimila aveene, loolilooli jilyale vwimila umue - imola isio musipulike kuhuma kuvaanhu vano vipulisia imola inofu mungufu isa Mhepo Mwimike Juno alyasung'hilu kuhuma kukyanya, imola isio avanyamola vinoghelua kukusikagula.
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—
Mu uluo muling'aniaghe kuluhala lwinhu. Muvesaghe nu lujisio mumasaghe ghinu. Mukangasiaghe na kuhuvila fijo ulusungu luno mulipelua ikighono kinno iligomoka.
14 as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
Ndavule avaana avakundi, mulekaghe kulongosivua nuvunoghelua vwinu vuno mulyale navwo ye mukyale kukunkagula unguluve.
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior,
Looli, muvisaghe vimike mumikalile agha vwumi vwinu vwoni, ndavule juno avakemelile vule mwimike.
16 because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
Ulwakuva lilembilue, “Muvesaghe vimike, ulwakuva une nilimwimike.”
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,
Kange ndave mukuntambula “Nhata” juno ikuvahigha avanhu vooni mumaghendele ghave, mujisiaghe nakuvingilila muvwumi vwinu vwoni
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,
Mugagwile vule muvangilue kuhuma mumaghendele ghiinu ghano naghanoghile ghano mulyupile kuvakuulu viinu, nalyavavangile ni finu fino finangike ndavule indalama nambe isahabu.
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Christ,
Looli muvangilue ni danda inalamu ija Yesu kilisite, ndavule ija ng'holo ija litekelo, isila vulema nambe lideha.
20 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
Ukilisite alyasalulilue kuhuma m'bukuuku ye jikyale kupelua iisi, neke mumasiki agha aghavusililo, amuhofisie vwimila umue.
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.
Mukumwitika uNguluve vwimila umwene, juno u Nguluve alyansusisie kuhuma kuvafue nakumpeela uvuvaha kuuti mumwitikaghe na kukumuhuvila u Nguluve.
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,
Muvalisie amoojo ghiinu vwimila kukunda uvwakyang'aani, nakukuvaghana avajinu kisila vukedusi, lino muvaghanaghe nu mwoojo ghwoni.
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. (aiōn g165)
Muholilue vupia, nakwekuti kuholua kim'bili ghuno ghufua ulwene muholilue kuuva nu vwumi uvusila kusila, mungufu isalisio lya Nguluve ilyafighono fyoni. (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;
Ulwakuva “Amavili ghooni ghalindavule ilisoli, utogo lwake lwoni lulindavule ililuva lya lisoli. ilisoli linyala, ililuva lijoghotoka nakusanguka,
25 but the Lord’s word endures forever.” This is the word of Good News which was preached to you. (aiōn g165)
looli ilisio lya Nguluve lijigha kisila kusila lusiku.” Ili lye lisio lino je mola jino jipulisivue kulyumue. (aiōn g165)
