Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect sojourners of the dispersion, of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia--
2 Jisuh Khrih a thi kaheinae hoi, Muitha lahoi thoungsaknae hmu hanelah, Pa Cathut ni sut a panue tangcoung e patetlah, a rawi e taminaw nangmouh koe a lungmanae hoi roumnae teh pungdaw lawiseh.
according to the predetermination of God the Father, by a sanctification of the Spirit, in order to obedience, and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Favor and peace be multiplied to you.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has regenerated us to a lively hope, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 nangmouh hanelah kalvan kho vah a hruek e, kamkonae, khinnae, kamyainae kaawm hoeh e râw dawk thoseh, katha lah bout na khe sak awh toe.
to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and unfading, preserved in the heavens for us;
5 Nangmouh ni ahnoungpoung e tueng dawk coungkacoe kamnue hane rungngangnae hah Cathut e bahu dawk yuemnae lahoi na kountouk awh.
who, by the power of God, are guarded through faith, to the salvation prepared to be revealed in the last time.
6 Nangmouh ni atu e atueng dawkvah tanouknae hoi lungmathoenae a cawngca dawngdeng na kâhmo awh ei nakunghai, a lathueng lah ka dei tangcoung e patetlah konawmnae kalenpoung tawn awh.
On account of this, be exceeding glad, though now, for a little while, (since it is needful, ) you are made sorry by divers trials;
7 Hotnaw teh, hmai hoi tanouk e lah o tangcoung eiteh kamko thai kawi e sui hlak aphu kaawm poung e nangmae yuemnae hah tanouknae teh Jisuh Khrih a kamnue toteh, pholennae, bawilennae hoi barinae lah na hmu awh han.
that the trying of your faith, (much more precious than of gold, which perishes, though proved by fire, ) may be found to praise, and honor, and glory, at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
8 Nangmouh ni hote Bawipa teh na hmawt bawi awh hoeh eiteh lung na pataw awh. Hote Bawipa teh atu na hmawt awh hoeh eiteh na yuem awh toe. Lawk hoi deithailekhoeh e konawmnae lahoi a bawilennae teh pholen awh.
whom, not having seen, you love; on whom, not now looking, but believing, you greatly rejoice, with joy unspeakable and full of glory--
9 Lungthin muitha rungngangnae yuemnae aphu hah a hmu awh.
receiving the consummation of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
10 Nangmouh ni na coe hane lungmanae hoi kâkuen lah ka dei e profetnaw nihai rungngangnae a kong a la tawng awh toe.
Concerning which salvation, the prophets inquired accurately, and searched diligently, who have prophesied concerning the favor bestowed on you;
11 Nangmouh thung kaawm e Khrih e Muitha ni Khrih rektapnae hoi, hote rektapnae hnuklah ka tho hane a bawilennae akong hah sut kampangkhai awh navah, apimaw, hoehpawiteh nâtuek e atueng maw a dei ngai nah tie hah ahnimouh ni a la tawng awh toe.
searching diligently of what things, and what kind of time, the Spirit of Christ, who was in them, did signify, when he testified before the sufferings of Christ, and the glories following these--
12 Hatnavah, ahnimouh ni a sak e hnonaw teh amamouh hanelah tho laipalah, nangmouh hanelah ahnimouh koe a pâpho. Atu hote hnonaw teh kalvan lahoi a patoun e Kathoung Muitha lahoi kamthang kahawi kadeinaw koehoi nangmouh koe bout pâpho e lah ao toe. Kalvantaminaw ni patenghai yah hote hnonaw a hmu hanelah puenghoi a ngai awh.
to whom it was revealed, that, not for themselves, but for us, they ministered these things; which have now been reported to you, by them who have declared the glad tidings to you, with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven: into which things, angels earnestly desire to look attentively.
13 Hatdawkvah, nangmae na lungthin hah kârakueng nateh kâhruetcuet awh. Jisuh Khrih a kamnue toteh nangmouh koe ka tho hane yawhawinae hah apout ditouh ngaihawi awh.
Wherefore, having the loins of your mind girded, being vigilant, constantly hope for the gift to be brought to you, at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
14 Yampa vah nangmouh ni na thai panuek awh hoeh nah lungradueknae hno na pâlei e naw atu bout pâlei laipalah lawk ka ngai e camo patetlah o vaiteh,
As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts, in your ignorance;
15 nangmouh na kakaw e Bawipa a thoung e patetlah nangmouh hai na hring kho na saknae dawk thoungsak awh.
but as he who has called you is holy, be you also holy;
16 Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai kathoung dawkvah nangmouh haiyah thoungnae tawn awh, telah Cakathoung dawk a dei.
for it is written, "Be you holy, because I am holy."
17 Nangmouh ni tami e minhmai khen laipalah buetbuet touh tangkuem ni a sak e patetlah lawkcengkung hah Apa telah na kaw awh pawiteh het talai imyin lah na o nathung barinae lungthin hoi khosak awh.
And seeing you call on the Father, who, without respect of persons, judges according to every man's work--pass the time of your sojourning here, in fear;
18 Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh ni mintoenaw koehoi na coe e ayawmyin kho na saknae thung hoi na ratangnae teh sui ngun kamko thai e hno hoi nahoeh,
knowing that, not with corruptible things, as silver and gold, you were redeemed from your foolish behavior, delivered to you by your fathers;
19 Yonnae banghai ka tawn hoeh e, khinnae ka tawn hoeh e tuca patetlah e aphu kaawm poung e Khrih thipaling hoi na ratang e titeh panue awh.
but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish, and without spot;
20 Bawipa teh talaivan a sak hoehnahlan sut a hmoun tangcoung e lah ao eiteh, atu ahnoungpoung e atueng dawkvah nangmouh hanelah a kamnue toe.
predetermined, indeed, before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for you;
21 Nangmouh ni Cathut khet laihoi yuemnae, ngaihawinae tawn thai nahanelah hote Bawipa hah Cathut ni duenae koehoi a thaw sak teh bawilennae a poe toe.
who through him, believe in God, who raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Nangmouh teh, lawkkatang ngâi e lahoi, nangmae lungthin muitha hah a thoung a cai sak teh, a katang e hmaunawngha reira lungpatawnae na coe awh dawkvah, kathounge lungthin hoi buet touh hoi buet touh kacaklah lungkâpataw awh.
Wherefore, having purified your souls by obeying the truth, through the Spirit, to unfeigned brotherly love, love one another, from a pure heart, fervently:
23 Nangmouh teh kamko thai e cati hoi tho laipalah, kamko thai hoeh e cati, kahring niteh a yungyoe kangning e Cathut e a lawk hoi a katha lah khe e lah na o awh. (aiōn )
having been regenerated, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of the living God, which remains. (aiōn )
24 Bangkongtetpawiteh miphun pueng teh phokung patetlah doeh ao awh. Taminaw e lentoenae pueng haiyah pho pei patetlah lah doeh ao. Phokung teh a kamyai teh a ke thai. A pei haiyah a sarut thai.
"For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower of it falls down; but the word of the Lord remains forever."
25 Hatei, Cathut e a lawk teh a yungyoe a kangning. Hote a lawk teh nangmouh koe dei e kamthang kahawi doeh. (aiōn )
Now this is that word which has been proclaimed as glad tidings to you. (aiōn )
