< 1 Bida 2 >
1 Amaiba: le, wadela: i hou huluane yolesima! Ogogosu hou, dabua fawane dafawaneyale dawa: su hou, mudasu hou amola gadesu sia: , amo huluane yolesima.
So then, laying aside all malignity—even all deceit and play-actings and envies, yes all malicious speaking—
2 Dilia da gaheabolo lalelegei mano dudubu amo defele, a:silibu dodo maga: me hanaiba: le, amo nahabeba: le dilia da asigilale, gaga: sudafa hou ba: mu.
crave the pure spiritual ‘milk’, like newborn babies do, so that by it you may grow into salvation,
3 Gode Sia: da agoane dedei, “Dilia dilisu da Gode Ea asigidafa hou hogobeba: le ba: i dagoi.”
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is benevolent.
4 Hina Gode da fedege agoane igi esala. Osobo bagade dunu ilia da amo igi da hamedei liligi dawa: beba: le, higa: i. Be Gode da amo igi noga: i ba: beba: le, Ema ilegei. Ema misa!
Coming to Him, a living stone—rejected indeed by men but chosen by God, precious—
5 Gode da igi esala amoga fedege agoane a: silibu diasu gagulala. Dilia igi esala agoane, misa! Gode da ea diasu gagumusa: dili lale, dilia da Yesu Gelesuma madelagiba: le, hadigi gobele salasu dunu agoane, a:silibu gobele salasu Godema imunu. Amo Gode da hahawane ba: mu.
you also, as living stones, are being built into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
6 Gode Sia: da agoane dedei diala, “Na da Igi ida: iwane gala ilegei. Amo Na da diasu baidafa agoane Saione moilai bai bagadega bugimu galebe. Nowa dunu da Ea hou lalegagusia, e da hame gogosiamu.”
That is why the Scripture contains: “Attention, I am laying in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, precious, and the one who rests his trust upon Him will absolutely not be humiliated.”
7 Dilia da amo Igi dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, hahawane bagade ba: mu. Be nowa da dafawaneyale hame dawa: sea, Gode Sia: da agoane dedei diala, “Diasu gagusu dunu da amo Igi da hamedei liligi dawa: beba: le, fadegai dagoi. Be Gode da amo Igi baligili mimogodafa hamoi.”
So then, this recompense is for you who believe, but to those who disobey, “the stone that the builders rejected is just the one that became the chief cornerstone,”
8 Gode Sia: eno da agoane dedei, “Dunu ilia da amo Igiga emo udagaguli dafamu!” Gode da amo hou hamomusa: dawa: beba: le, ilia Gode Ea sia: dafawaneyale hame dawa: beba: le, udagaguli dafai.
also “a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”; being disobedient to the Word, they stumble, to which, indeed, they were appointed.
9 Be dilia da Gode Ea ilegei fi. Dilia da Hina Bagade Ea gobele salasu dunu. Dilia da Gode Hi fi dunu, hadigi fi hamoi. Gode da dili gasi yolesili, Ea hadigi ida: iwane amo ganodini esaloma: ne, dilima ilegei dagoi. E da Ea hou ida: iwane amo eno dunuma olelema: ne, dili asunasi.
But you are a chosen family, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a private-property people, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
10 Musa: dilia da Gode Ea fi dunu hame galu. Be wali dilia da Gode Ea fi dunu. Musa: dilia da Gode Ea gogolema: ne olofosu hame dawa: i galu. Be wali, E da iabeba: le, dilia da Gode Ea gogolema: ne olofosu lalegagui dagoi.
who formerly were not a people but now are God's people, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
11 Na fi dunu! Dilia da ga fi dunu agoane osobo bagadega esalebeba: le, na dilima ha: giwane edegesa. Dilia hu ea hanai hou amo da eso huluane dilia a: silibu amoma gegenana. Be dilia hu ea hou hasalima: ne, amo gegesu mae yolesima!
Dear ones, I urge you to abstain from the lusts of the flesh, that war against the soul,
12 Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui dunu amo ilia gilisisu ganodini dilia hou da ida: iwane ba: mu da defea. Ilia da dili da wadela: i hamosu dunu ogogole sia: sa. Be dilia da noga: iwane hamobeba: le, amo ilia dawa: beba: le, Gode Ea bu misunu Esoga, ilia da dilima nodomu fawane.
keeping your way of life among the nations praiseworthy (you being foreigners and sojourners), so that wherein they speak against you as evildoers, in spite of the praiseworthy deeds they have observed, they may glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Dilia Hina Gode Ea hou lalegagui amo dawa: beba: le, osobo bagade ouligisu dunu ilia sia: nabawane hamoma. Louma hina bagade da osobo bagade hou amo ganodini hinadafa. Amaiba: le, dilia ea sia: nabima.
Therefore subordinate yourselves to every human institution because of the Lord, whether to a king, as being in authority,
14 Amola eha eagene ouligisu dunu ilia wadela: i hamosu dunuma se dabe iasu ima: ne amola hou ida: iwane dunuma nodoma: ne, e da ili ilegei dagoi. Amaiba: le, dilia ilia sia: amolawane nabima.
or to governors, as being sent by him, both for punishment of evildoers and for praise of good-doers.
15 Bai Gode da agoane hanai galebe. Dilia hou ida: iwane hamobeba: le, gagaoui dunu ilia udigili sia: dasu logo da hedofai dagoi ba: mu.
Because such is the will of God, to silence the ignorance of foolish people by doing good:
16 Dilia udigili halegale lalebe dunu agoane esaloma! Be udigili halegale lalebeba: le, wadela: i hou dedeboma: ne mae hamoma. Be dilia Gode Ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu defele esaloma!
as free (not using the freedom as a cover for evil), yet as slaves of God.
17 Esega! Dunu huluanema asigima! Dilia Yesu Ea fi dunuma asigima! Godema beda: ma amola hina bagade dunu ilima nodoma!
Respect everyone; love the brotherhood; fear God; honor the king.
18 Dilia hawa: hamosu dunu! Dilia ouligisu dunu ilia sia: nabawane hamoma amola ilima nodoma. Asigi ouligisu dunu amo fawane hame, be nimi bagade ouligisu dunu amola amo ea sia: nabawane hamoma.
Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unscrupulous.
19 Dilia da Gode Ea hanai hou dawa: beba: le, hou ida: iwane hamobeba: le mae hihini se nabasea, Gode da dilima hahawane dogolegesu hou olelemu.
For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God someone endures grief, suffering unjustly.
20 Be dilia wadela: i hou hamoiba: le se dabe iasu lasea, amo da dilima bidi imunu liligi hame. Be dilia hou ida: iwane hamobeba: le se iasu lasea mae hihini esalea, Gode da dilima hahawane dogolegele imunu.
For what credit is it if upon sinning and being beaten you endure patiently? But if upon doing good and suffering you endure patiently, this is commendable before God.
21 Yesu Gelesu da dili fidima: ne se bagade nabi. Dilia da amo hou fa: no bobogema: ne, E da se nabi. Amo Yesu Ea se nabasu defele dili hamoma: ne, Gode da dilima ilegei dagoi.
Now you have been called to this, really, because Christ also suffered in our behalf, leaving you an example that you should follow in His footsteps:
22 Yesu Gelesu da wadela: i hou hamedafa hamosu. Dunu afae da Ea lafidili ogogole sia: su hamedafa nabi.
who did not commit sin, neither was deceit found in His mouth;
23 Dunu eno da Ema gadele sia: noba, E da bu dabe hame gadei. E da se nabaloba, E da dabemu mae sia: ne, be Gode (Moloidafa Fofada: su Dunu) amo da E fidimu E dawa: beba: le, E da dafawaneyale hamoma: beyale dawa: i.
who being reviled did not revile in return, suffering did not threaten but committed it to Him who judges righteously;
24 Yesu Gelesu da ninia wadela: i hou huluane Ea da: iga lalegaguli, ifa bulufalegeiga bogoi. Ninia da wadela: i hou amoma bogole, bu hou moloidafa hamomusa: esaloma: ne, Yesu da bogoi dagoi. Yesu Ea fofa: gi amoga ninia da uhi dagoi.
who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, so that we, having died to those sins, might live for the righteousness; by whose wound you were healed.
25 Dilia da sibi fisi agoane ba: su. Be Sibi Ouligisu da dili bu oule misi dagoi. Sibi Ouligisu amo da dilia a: silibu ouligisa. Dilia da Ema fa: no bobogema: ne, E da dili bu oule misi.
Yes, you were like straying sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls.
