1 Petro 2
1 Emomiyo weuru timbe maricho duto kod wuondruok duto, kod dondruok, gi nyiego kod kuoth e yo moro amora.
Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
2 Mana kaka nyithindo mayom, beduru gi siso gi chak mayom mar chuny mondo kumadhe to omi udongi e yor warruok,
as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
3 nikech koro usebilo Ruoth mi uyudo ni ober.
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
4 Ka ubiro ir Jalno ma en Kidi mangima mane jogedo odagi, to en ema Nyasaye noyiere kendo omiye duongʼ.
Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
5 Un bende biuru ire kaka kite mangima, mondo oger kodu hekalu mar chuny mondo ubed jodolo maler machiwo misango mag chuny ma Nyasaye oyiego kuom Yesu Kristo.
You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
6 Mana kaka Muma wacho niya, “Neuru, aketo kidi e Sayun, en kidi moyier kendo ma nengone tek moriwo kor ot, to ngʼat mogeno kuome ok none wichkuot.”
Because it is contained in Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”
7 Kidini nigi nengo matek mana ni un joma oyie. To kuom joma ok oyie to, “Kidi mane jogedo odagi koro osedoko kidi moriwo kor ot,”
For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”
8 bende niya, “En e kidi machwanyo ji kendo lwanda mamiyo gipodho.” Gichwanyore nikech gitamore winjo wach mane Nyasaye owalonegi.
and, “a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.” For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
9 Un to un jogo moyier. Un jodolo ma joka Ruoth kendo un oganda maler mar Nyasaye mane oyiero mondo ohul tijene miwuoro, kane oluongou mi ua e mudho kendo udonjo e lerne miwuoro.
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
10 Chon ne ok un ji, to koro un jo-Nyasaye, chon ne pok okechu, to koro osekechu.
In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
11 Joherana, ajiwou, kaka jowuoth kendo kaka welo e pinyni, mondo uwe gombo maricho mag ringruok makedo gi chunyu.
Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
12 Daguru e ngima maber e kind jopiny makia Nyasaye mondo kata ka gihangonu ni un joketho to gine mana timbeu mabeyo mi gimi Nyasaye duongʼ chiengʼ ma obiro ngʼadoe bura.
having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu nyaka winj joloch duto moketi mondo orit ji, nikech uhero Ruoth Yesu madwaro ni utim kamano. Rituru chike mag ruoth marito piny,
Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
14 kendo rituru bende chike mag jotelo ma gin joma ruoth owuon ema oketo mondo okum joma ketho to opwo joma timo maber.
or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
15 Nikech en dwaro Nyasaye mondo timbeu mabeyo okuod wi joma ofuwo mohero weche manono.
For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
16 Daguru ka joma ni thuolo, to kik uti gi thuolo ma un-go obed gima uumogo richou, daguru kaka jotich Nyasaye.
Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
17 Chiwuru luor mowinjore ne ji duto. Heruru jowete duto mowar. Luoruru Nyasaye. Miuru ruoth mar piny luor.
Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
18 To un wasumbini winjuru ruodhiu kendo migiuru luor. Kik uluor mana ruodhi mabeyo ma ok kwiny kodu, to luoruru koda mago makwiny kodu.
Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
19 Nikech en gima ber ka dhano oyie tingʼo rem mar chandruok moyudo kayiem nikech ongʼeyo ni Nyasaye ni kode.
For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
20 To ere kaka ngʼato diyud pak ka uyudo chwat michwadougo nikech ujoketho? To ka isandou nikech tim maber ma utimo, kendo ka unano e bwo sand ma kamano, to Nyasaye pwoyou.
For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.
21 Mano e kit ngima mane oluongue nikech Kristo nosandi nikech un, mine oweyonu ranyisi mondo un bende uluw timne.
For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,
22 Muma wacho niya, “Ne ok otimo richo kata achiel, kendo onge miriambo mane owuok e dhoge.”
who did not sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”
23 Kane oyanye to ne ok oyenyo, kata kane isande to ne ok okwongʼo joma ne sande. Kar timo kamano to noketo genone kuom Jal ma jangʼad bura ma kare.
When he was cursed, he did not curse back. When he suffered, he did not threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
24 En owuon notingʼo richowa e ringre kane otho e msalaba mondo eka wan wadok joma otho ne richo, to wabed mangima ne timbe makare; kuom moriemo mage ema osechangu.
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.
25 Ne uchalo mana ka rombe morwenyo, to koro oseduogu e yo mondo ulu Jakwadhu kendo Jarit mar chunyu.
For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
