1 Petulo 5
1 Une jwanchekulu chilongola jumo mwa ŵanyamwe achachekulu ilongola achinjangu ni jwa umboni junagaweni masauko ga Kilisito ni juchilumbikane nawo mu aula ukulu wauchiunukulikwe, ngunchondelela
Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
2 nchinganje mpingo wa ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu umpegwile, ngaŵa kwa kunkanganichisya, nambo kwakusaka kwenu mwachinsyene mpela yakuti kusaka Akunnungu. Kasintumichila kwa misese jakukola mbiya, nambo kwa kulityosya kwa ntima wenu wose.
shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
3 Kasimwalongosya kwa machili aŵala ŵandu ŵampegwile kwagosa, nambo ŵanyamwe mwachinsyene mme chitagu chambone kwa ŵandu wo.
not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
4 Ni Jwakuchinga Jwankulu pachaiche sooni, ŵanyamwe chimpochele chindu mpela singwa ja ukulu jangajikusisina.
When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
5 Iyoyopeyo ŵanyamwe achachanda nkusachilwa mwajitichisye achakulungwa. Ŵanyamwe wose nkusachilwa kulitulusya nkombole kutumichilana, pakuŵa Malembelo ga Akunnungu gakuti, “Akunnungu akwakanila ŵakulinamanila, nambo akwalosya umbone wao aŵala ŵakulitulusya.”
Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
6 Nipele nliŵiche paasi pa nkono wa Akunnungu wauli ni machili, kuti antende mme jwankulu kwa katema kakwe.
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
7 Mwaŵichile indu yaikunsausya mmitima jenu, pakuŵa ŵelewo akungosanga ŵanyamwe.
casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
8 Nlilolechesye ni nchesyanje! Pakuŵa jwammagongo jwenu Jwaulamba, akusyungulasyungula mpela lisimba lyalikutongola lichinsosaga mundu jwakummila.
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
9 Ni ŵanyamwe munkanile jwelejo, mkulimbichila mchikulupi, nchimanyililaga kuti ŵakukulupilila achinjenu wose pachilambo pose akusimanwa ni masauko ganti iyoyo.
Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
10 Nambo mwamalaga kulagaswa kwa katema kakajipi, Akunnungu ŵaali ŵambone mu wose ŵaŵammilasile njinjile mu ukulu wao wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi nkulumbikana ni Kilisito. Ŵelewo asyene chantende ŵamalilwe ni kuntaga machili ni kuntenda njime mwakulimbila mu nsingi wakulimba. (aiōnios g166)
But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Messiah Yeshua, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. (aiōnios g166)
To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Nannembele chikalata chachijipi chi kwa ukamusi u che Siluwano, nnongo jungummanyilila ni kunkulupilila. Ngusaka kunlimbisya ntima ni kunsalila kuti chindu chi uli umbone wa usyene wa Akunnungu. Ntameje nkulimbila mu umbone wo.
Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
13 Mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito wauli ku chilambo cha Babeli, akunkomasya. Iyoyopeyo che Maliko jwali nti mwanangu jwa usyene nombejo akunkomasya.
She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
14 Nkomasyane kwa unonyelo wa Kilisito. Ngunsachila chitendewele ŵanyamwe ŵanli ŵandu ŵakwe Kilisito.
Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Messiah Yeshua. Amen.
