1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an emissary of Yeshua the Messiah, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Diaspora in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
Njame Petulo, musebenshi wa Yesu Klistu. Ndalembenga iyi kalata kuli njamwe mwasalwa ne Lesa mulekalangeti bensu mubimpansha byaku Ponto, ne ku Galatiya, neku Kapadokiya, neku Asiya kayi neku Bituniya.
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Yeshua the Messiah and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
Kwelana ne kuyanda kwa Lesa Bata kwesula kufuminowa kumatatikilo mwalasalwa kayi mwalaswepeshewa ne Mushimu Uswepa kwambeti mube beshikunyumfwila Yesu Klistu, mwalasukwa ne milopa yakendi. Lesa amunyumfwile nkumbo ne kumupa lumuno lwesula.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah from the dead,
Tulumbe Lesa Baishi Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu. Pakwinga mukufula kwa nkumbo shakendi, walatupa buyumi bwa linolino pakumupundusha Yesu Klistu kubafu. Neco tukute lushomo lwayuma nta,
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
lwakwambeti nitukatambule colwe cabintu byaina Lesa mbyabambila bantu bakendi kwilu, uko nkweshi bikabule kubola, nambi kwipishiwa, nambi kushimangana.
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Ibi bintu nibyenu, kupitila mulushomo, byabambwa cena mungofu sha Lesa kwambeti mukatambule lupulusho ulo lulipepi kuboneka pacindi camapwililisho.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
Ibi kabimukondweleshani nambi pacino cindi mucane mapensho ne kwelekeshewa kwapusanapusana.
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 honour at the revelation of Yeshua the Messiah—
Ibi ni bishikubonesheti lushomo lwenu ni lwancinencine. Nambi golide ukute konongeka ukute kwengeka nemulilo, nalo lushomo lwenu ulo lwapita golide, lwela kwelekeshewa kwambeti lucanike kuba lwancinencine. Mwenseco nimukatambule kulumbwa, ne bulemu pabusuba mbweshakayubuluke Yesu Klistu.
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,
Nambi ntamuna mumubonapo, nsombi mumusuni. Nambi pacindi cino nkamulamubononga mwamushoma, kayi mwakondwa citambiki.
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
Pakwinseco mulatambulunga cilambo ca lushomo, uku ekwambeti lupulusho lwenu.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
Bashinshimi balambapo sha cilambo calupulusho ndweshimukatambule, balo balalangaula mwabuya lupulusho ulu, Lesa ndwetamupe.
11 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Messiah which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Messiah and the glories that would follow them.
Mushimu wa Klistu walikuba mulyendibo walikwambila limo sha byeshikubaba Klistu mbyeshakanyumfwe, kayi ne bulemu mbweshakabe nabo panyuma pakendi. Bashinshimi balikuyanda kwishiba cindi kayi ne moti bikenshikilenga.
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.
Lesa walabayubulwila kwambeti ncito njobalikwinsa nkayalikuba yakuyanda bene, nsombi balikwinshilamwe, mpobalikwamba bintu ibyo mbyemulanyumfunga kuli batumwa bakendi balakambaukunga Mulumbe Waina kupitila mu Mushimu Uswepa walafuma kwilu. Ibi ebintu nabo bangelo mbyebalikuyanda kwishiba.
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 Yeshua the Messiah—
Eco cakendi myoyo yenu ibe yalibambila. Kamubani babangamana. Bikani lushomo lwenu lonse pa colwe nceshi mukapewe Yesu Klistu akayubuluka.
14 as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
Nyumfwilani Lesa, kamutaleka buyumi bwenu kubumbwa nelunkumbwa ndomwalikukute kamutana mwishiba Klistu.
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behaviour,
Mbuli Lesa ncali waswepa uyo walamukuwa, nenjamwe kamubani baswepa mumikalilo yenu yonse.
16 because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
Mabala alambangeti, “Kamubani baswepa myoyo mbuli Ame ncendaswepa moyo.”
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,
Lesa liya lusalululo. Ukute kombolosha uliyense kwelana ne micito yakendi. Mwambangeti, Ta pakupaila, mupeni bulemu cindi conse ncomulicili panshi pano.
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,
Mucishi cena ncalasebenshesha pakumulubula ku mikalilo yaipa njemwalatambula kufumina ku bamashali benu. Liya kumulubula ne mali asa akute konongeka, silifa nambi golide sobwe.
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Messiah,
Walamulubula ne milopa ya Klistu yamulo wadula, uyo walalibengeti M wanambelele wabula cibala nambi bulema.
20 who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
Lesa walamusalilalimo cishi capanshi citana cilengwa, nomba lamuyubululu mumasuba ano akupwililisha cebo canjamwe.
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.
Kupitila mulyendiye, mulashomonga Lesa walamupundusha kubafu, nekumupa bulemu. Neco lushomo ne kupembelela kwenu bili pali Lesa.
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,
Mulaswepeshe myoyo yenu pakunyumfwa cancinencine, kwambeti munyumfwanenga ne baklistu banenu. Ecebo cakendi mwela kusunana nemoyo wonse.
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. (aiōn g165)
Pakwinga mulenshi kusemwa tubili, buyumi bwakendi nkabulafumunga mu mbuto ya mushali ukute kufwa sobwe, nsombi mu mbuto itafu, iyo mbuto ni maswi a Lesa, maswi abuyumi eshakabule kupwa. (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;
Mbuli Mabala a Lesa, alambangeti, “Bantu bonse balyeti mila, bulemu bwabo bulyeti maluba amucisuwa. Mila ikute kuyuma, nawo maluba akute kunyana.
