1 Peter 1
1 Hiche lekhathot hi Yeshua Christa solchah Peter a kon ahi. Keiman Pathen lhendoh mite gamchom mi dinmun a, Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia chule Bithynia gamkai hoa cheng ho henga kajih ahi.
To the people of God who are living abroad, dispersed throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Roman Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Pa Pathen in nanahet uva chule masang peh a nalhendoh uva, chule a Lhagaovin nasuhtheng u ahitai. Hichea kona chu nanghon asei na ngaiyuva chule Yeshua Christa thisan a nasop thengu ahitai. Pathen in lungsetna le cham-lungmon napeh be be jengtau hen.
and who were chosen in accordance with the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the consecration of the Spirit, to learn obedience, and to be purified by the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ, from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. May blessing and peace be yours in ever increasing measure.
3 I-Pakaiyu Yeshua Christa Pa Pathen ah vahchoina jouse umjing tahen. Ama milungsetna let jeh'a eiho pengthah a ihiu hi Pathen in Yeshua Christa chu athilah a kona akai thou jal jeh ahi.
Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has, in his great mercy, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 Chule eihon gou simjou lou loding ineiyui-gouchan ding chu vana nangho dinga kikoiya ahi.
given us the new life of undying hope, that promises an inheritance, imperishable, stainless, unfading, which has been reserved for you in heaven –
5 Chule natahsan jaluva chu, Pathen in athahat'a hiche huhhingna hi nakisan kahseuva na honbit uva, mi jousen amutheina dinguva ni nununga hung kilang ding ahi.
for you who, through faith, are being guarded by the power of God, awaiting a salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last days.
6 Hijehchun kipah tahbeh un. Nanghon phat chomkhat a dinga patepna hahsa tampi nathoh dingu ahivangin, kipana kidangtah namasanguvah aume.
At the thought of this you are full of exultation, though (if it has been necessary) you have suffered for the moment somewhat from various trials;
7 Hiche patepna ho hin natahsanu chu akicheh monge ti avetsah ding ahi. Meiyin apatep banga natahsan u chu patep'a uma ahin chule sana maimai sanga natahsan nau mantamjo ahivanga, sana kilhantheng banga natahsan u chu kipatep'ah ahi. Hijeh a chu natahsan u chun patepna tintang ato jouva hattah a aum den a ahileh, Yeshua Christa chu vannoi pumpia akiphondoh teng chuleh nangho dinga vahchoina le loupina chule jabolna tamtah ahin lhutding ahitai.
that the genuineness of your faith – a thing far more precious than gold, which is perishable, yet has to be tested by fire – may win praise and glory and honour at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
8 Ama namu khah louvang uvin nangailu uve. Tuhin Ama namu loulai vanguvin, Ama natahsan tauve; chule nangho kipana loupitah phondoh theihoi hilou chun nakipah tauve.
Though you have never seen him, yet you love him; though you do not even now see him, yet you believe in him, and exalt with a triumphant happiness too great for words,
9 Ama natahsan jeh uva ahung sohdoh chu na lhagaovu huhhing channa ahung hitai.
as you receive the reward of your faith in the salvation of your souls!
10 Hiche huhhingna thudol, lungset man'a huhhingna nangho dinga kigong chu ahi, themgao hon gaova anasei laiyuva ahetchet nom'u chu.
It was this salvation that the prophets, who spoke long ago of the blessing intended for you, sought, and strove to comprehend;
11 Amahon itih phat a ahilouleh itih a asunguva um Christa Lhagao chun Christa gimthohna le khonunga Aloupina kidangtah thudol chu akihou piuva, anaseipeh masah u ham ti chu adatmo uvin ahi.
as they strove to discern what that time could be, to which the Spirit of Christ within them was pointing, when foretelling the sufferings that Christ would have to endure, and the glories that would follow.
12 Amaho chu athupohhou amahoa dinga hilouvin, nanghoa ding joh ahi ti seipeh anahiuve. Chule hiche Kipana Thuphahi nangho koma Vana kona Lhagao Theng thahatna'a seiphonga pang ho chun ahin phondoh u ahitai. Hiche hi akidanna kit chu vantil tenjong lung gutten a hicheho hi avetvet'u ahi.
And it was revealed to them that it was not for themselves, but for you, that they were acting as Ministers of the truths which have now been told to you, by those who, with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, have brought you the good news – truths into which even angels long to look.
13 Hijeh chun, phatechan gelun chule kitim themun. Yeshua chu vannoiya ahung kilah tengleh nachunguva lungsetna huhhingna hung lhung ding chu galdot un.
Therefore concentrate your minds, with the strictest self-control, and fix your hopes on the blessing that is coming for you at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
14 Hiti chun, Pathen thua nungte bangin hinkho mangun. Nalung ngaichat u suhbulhitna dingin masang nahin khouva chun kinungtol kit hih un. Chupet a chu aphajo ding nahet loulaiyu ahi.
Be like obedient children; do not let your lives be shaped by the passions which once swayed you in the days of your ignorance,
15 Hinlah tun, Pathen nadei lhenpau athen tobanga chu nangho jong imalam jousea nathen dingu ahi.
but in your whole life show yourselves to be holy, after the pattern of the Holy One from whom you received your call.
16 Ajeh chu Pathen Thubun, “Keima kathen jeh hin nangho jong thengun,” ati.
For scripture says – “You will be holy, because I am holy.”
17 Chule geldoh uvin, natao nau Vana Pa chun koima lungset tum aneipoi. Aman natoh dung juiyuva nachung thu'u atan ding ahilouleh kipaman napeh dingu ahi. Hitia hi gamsunga kholjin nahi nauva hi Ama jana neiya nagin lhungkei dingu ahi.
And since you call on him as “Father,” who judges everyone impartially by what he has done, let respectful awe be the spirit of your lives during the time of your stay on earth.
18 Ajeh chu nanghon nahe tauve, Pathen in napu napa teuva kona kiloson hinkho panna beiya kona hi lhatdohna man apeh ahitai. Chule hiche lhatna man apeh chu sana ahilouleh dangka thila ahipoi.
For you know that it was not by perishable things, such as silver and gold, that you were ransomed from the aimless way of living which was handed down to you from your ancestors,
19 Chonset bei, nolnabei Pathen kelngoinou, Christa thisan manlutah a chu kilhat nahiuve.
but by precious blood, as it were of a lamb, unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ.
20 Pathen in ama chu vannoi kiphudoh masangpeh a nalhat diuva alhendoh chu, hiche ninununga hi Ama hung kiphongdoh a ahitai.
Destined for this before the beginning of the world, he has been revealed in these last days for your sakes,
21 Christa jal'a Pathen nahin tahsanu ahitai. Chule nanghon Pathena natahsan u le nakinep nau chu nangap det'u ahitai, ajeh chu Aman Christa chu thinaa konin akaithouvin chule loupina lentah chu napetauve.
who, through him, are faithful to God who raised him from the dead and gave him honour, so that your faith and hope are now in God.
22 Nangho thutah thua nanun phat uva nachonset nauva kona thenga nahi tauve, hijeh a chu tua hi nangho sopi hina a nangho ngailutna dihtah chu nakineito diu ahitai. Nalung gil pum piuvin khat le khat kingailu touvin.
Now that, by your obedience to the truth, you have purified your lives, so that there is growing up among you a genuine affection, love one another earnestly with all your hearts;
23 Ajeh chu nangho penthahna hi abeiloi ding tuhinkhoa ahipoi. Hinna thah naneiyu hi aitih a umjing ding ahi, ajeh chu hichu Pathen Thuhing jing tonsot'a um jinga kon ahi. (aiōn g165)
since your new life has come, not from perishable, but imperishable, seed, through the message of the Everliving God. (aiōn g165)
24 Pathen Thubun asei dung juiyin, “Mihemte hi hampa tobangbep ahi, ahoinau jong loujaova pahcha pah tobangbep ahi. Hampa agopjin chule apah chu amolloiji.
For – “All earthly life is but as grass, and all its splendour as the flower of grass. The grass fades, its flower falls,
