Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one having according to his great mercy begotten us again into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 kulwo kulya omwandu kunu kutali kwa kusimagila. kutakubhawo na bhujabhi nolwo kukeyelelwe. Kubhikilwe mu lwile ingulu yemwe.
unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and never fading, having been kept in the heavens unto you,
5 Kwo bhutulo bhwa Nyamuanga okulibhata okulubhana ne likilisha lyo Mwelulo gunu guliwo bhwangu okusululwa mu mwanya gwo bhutelo.
who are preserved by the power of God through faith unto the salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 Nimukondelwe mu linu, nolwo kutyo woli ni bhusi-bhusi kwemwe okwiyungwa obhusulumbaye mu malegejo ga bhuli nyami ku gandi na gandi.
In whom you rejoice, if however it is needful, being grieved a little while among manifold temptations: in order
7 Jinu ni kwa insonga ati elikilisha lyemwe lisakwe, elikilisha linu lili lyo bhugusi bhulambu kukila ijaabhu, inu eibhula mu mumulilo gunu koleleki lisakwe elikilisha lyemwe. Jinu ejibhonekana koleleki elikilisha lyemwe libhone okwibhula obhumenyi, likusho, echibhalo mu kuswelulwa kwa Yesu Kristo.
that the trial of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, however being tried by the fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor in the revelation of Jesus Christ:
8 Muchaliga kumulola omwene, mbe nawe omumwenda. Mutakumulola woli, nawe omwikilisha mu mwene na muli no kukondelwa kunu kutakutula kwaikwa kwo bhukonde bhunu bhwijuywe likusho.
whom you not seeing, love with divine love; on whom, not looking, but believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 Woli emwe abhene omulamila ganu mwakolele mu likilisha lyemwe, omwelulo gwe mitima jemwe.
receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 Abhalagi bhaigile no kubhusilisha kwo kwitegelesha okulubhana no Mwelulo gunu, okulubhana ne chiongo chinu chakabhee chemwe.
Concerning which salvation the prophets, who prophesied concerning the grace towards you, sought out and investigated,
11 Bhaigile nibhenda okumenya omwelulo ogwo kutyo guli nigwa nyami-ki ugwa gukachijako. Bhaigile one okwenda okumenya ati ni mwanya-ki gunu Mwoyo wa Kristo unu ali munda yebhwe aliga naika-ki nabho. Jinu jaliga nijibhonekana mu mwanya gunu elabhaga obhabhwila okulubhana na jinyako ja Kristo na likusho linu lyakamulubhile.
searching into what, or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ who was in them, witnessing the sufferings towards Christ, and the glories after these, did show:
12 Ejo jasuluywe ku bhalagi ati bhaliga nibhabhakolela emisango jinu, nawe atali ingulu yebhwe abhene, nawe ingulu yemwe-inyaika ye misango jinu okulabha ku bhalya bhanu abhachiletela omusango gwo bhwana kwemwe ku njila ya Mwoyo Mwelu unu atumilwe okusoka mu lwile, emisango jinu nolwo bhamalaika one abhaligila kwo kuswelulilwa kwaye.
to whom it was revealed, because they were ministering not these things for themselves, but for you, which are now proclaimed unto you by those who preach to you the gospel with the Holy Ghost having been sent from heaven; into which things the angels desire to look down.
13 Kulwejo mwibhoyega ebhibhunu bhyo bhwenge bhwemwe. Nimubhega bhanu bhanu bhatuliye mu menganilisho gemwe. Nimubhega no bhubhasi bhwo kwiikanyimbwa mu chigongo chinu echiletwa kwemwe mu mwanya gwo kuswelulilwa kwa Yesu Kristo.
Therefore having girded up the loins of your minds, being perfectly sober, hope unto the grace which is conferred on you in the revelation of Jesus Christ.
14 Lwa bhana bhatoto abholobhe, mwasiga kubhoywa abhene kwa jinamba jinu mwalubhile mu mwanya gunu mwaliga mutangasha bhumenyi.
As children of obedience, not being fashioned after your former lusts in ignorance:
15 Mbe nawe lwa kutyo unu abhabhilikiye aliga Mwelu, emwe one, mubhega bhelu mu ntungwa jemwe jona mu bhulame.
but according to the Holy One who has called you. Be ye also holy in all your deportment;
16 Kulwo kubha jandikilwe ati, “Nimubhega bhelu, ku nsonga anye nili Mwelu.”
because it has been written, Ye shall be holy; because I am holy.
17 Alabha mukabhilikila “Lata” Unu kalamula kwe chimali okulubhana ne milimu ja bhuli munu, kumisha omwanya gwo lugendo lwawo mu kwikeya.
And if you call upon the Father, the One judging without respect of persons according to the work of each, pass the time of your sojourn with fear,
18 Mumenyele ati jaliga jitali ja feja amwi jaabhu- ebhinu bhinu ebhinyamuka-ebhinu bhinu emwe mweluywe okusoka mu ntungwa jemwe ejo bhumumu bhunu mweigiye okusoka ku bhalata bhemwe.
knowing that you have been redeemed from your depraved character transmitted from your ancestors, not by corruptible things, silver or gold,
19 Mbe nawe mweluywe mu nsagama ye chibhalo eya Kristo, lwa inyabhalega inu italiko esolo nolwo kakojole.
but by the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and spotless:
20 Kristo asolelwe jinfuka je chalo jichali kutebhwawo, mbe nawe woli ku nsiku jinu eja kubhutelo, asuluywe kwemwe.
foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but having been made manifest at the last of the times for the sake of you,
21 Mu mwikilisishe Nyamuanga okulabha ku mwene, unu Nyamuanga amusuluye okusoka mu bhafuye na unu amuyaye likusho koleleki ati elikilisha lyemwe no bhubhasi bhubhe ku Nyamuanga.
who through him are faithful toward God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope are toward God.
22 Mujikolele emitima jemwe kubha ja kisi kwo bholobhe bhwe chimali chilya, kulwa insonga ye lyenda lya bhasu linu lili no bhwikeya, kwibhyo mwendanega kwo kwikomesha kunu okusoka mu Mioyo.
Having purified your souls through obedience of the truth unto unhypocritical, brotherly love, fervently from the heart love one another with divine love:
23 Emwe mwamalile okwibhulwa lwa kabhili, atali ku njuma unu ejinyamuka, mbe nawe okusoka ku njuma jinu jitakunyamuka, okulabha ku bhuanga no musango gwa Nyamuanga gunu gwasagile. (aiōn g165)
having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible, through the word of God, who lives and abides. (aiōn g165)
24 Kulwo kubha “emibhili jona ni kuti mabhibhi, na likusho lyaye lyona ni kuti bhwaso bhwe ebhabhi. Libhabhi eliotoka no bhwaso obhusilisha,
