1 Peter 5
1 I, a fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and a partaker of the glory going be revealed, exhort the elders among you:
Me a meyɛ ɔpanin no, metu asafo no mu mpanimfoɔ fo sɛ, meyɛ Kristo amanehunu no ho adanseɛ enti nʼanimuonyam a ɛbɛba no bɛka me. Metu mo fo sɛ,
2 Tend ye the flock of God among you, watching over, not by obligation, but willingly, nor greedily, but readily,
monyɛ nnwan a Onyankopɔn de wɔn ahyɛ mo nsa no nnwanhwɛfoɔ na monhwɛ wɔn yie sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn pɛ sɛ moyɛ no. Monyɛ adwuma a monhwehwɛ ho akatua biara, na mmom, pɛ ara na mopɛ sɛ moyɛ.
3 nor as domineering over the lots, but becoming examples of the flock.
Monnhyɛ wɔn a wɔde wɔn ahyɛ mo nsa no so, na mmom monyɛ nhwɛsoɔ pa mma nnwan no.
4 And when the chief Shepherd is made known, ye will receive the unfading crown of glory.
Na sɛ Odwanhwɛfoɔ panin no ba a, wɔbɛma mo animuonyam ahenkyɛ a ɛho nsɛe da.
5 Likewise younger men should be subordinate to the elder men. And all being subordinate to each other, clothe yourselves with humility, because God sets himself against the haughty, but gives grace to the lowly.
Saa ara na ɛsɛ sɛ mmabunu, mobrɛ mo ho ase ma mpanimfoɔ. Mo nyinaa mfa ahobrɛaseɛ nkatanimu mmɔ mo asene na monsom mo ho mo ho ɛfiri sɛ, Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, “Onyankopɔn si ahantanfoɔ ɛkwan na ɔdom ahobrɛasefoɔ.”
6 Therefore be lowered under the mighty hand of God, so that he may lift you up in time,
Enti mommrɛ mo ho ase nhyɛ Onyankopɔn nsa a tumi wɔ mu no ase sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ɔbɛma mo so wɔ ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ mu.
7 having cast all your concern upon him, because he cares for you.
Momfa mo dadwene ne mo haw nyinaa nto ne so ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdwene mo ho.
8 Be sober, be vigilant. Your opponent the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about seeking whom to devour.
Mo ani nna hɔ; monwɛn ɛfiri sɛ, mo ɔtamfoɔ bonsam no nam sɛ gyata a ɔbobɔm hwehwɛ deɛ ɔbɛnya no amene.
9 Whom resist, steadfast in the faith, knowing the same sufferings are to be accomplished in the world by your brotherhood.
Momfa gyidie nnyina pintinn nsi no ɛkwan ɛfiri sɛ, monim sɛ mo nuanom agyidifoɔ a wɔwɔ ewiase afanan nyinaa rehunu saa amane korɔ no ara bi.
10 And may the God of all grace who called you to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus (after suffering a little while) himself thoroughly prepare you. He will establish, strengthen, and provide a foundation. (aiōnios g166)
Na adom nyinaa Onyankopɔn a wafrɛ mo aba ne daa animuonyam no mu Kristo mu no, ɔno ara na sɛ monya hunu amane kakra ansa a, ɔbɛsiesie mo pɛ; ɔbɛma mo ase atim; ɔbɛhyɛ mo den; ɔbɛma mo anya nnyinasoɔ. (aiōnios g166)
Ɔno na tumi wɔ no daa daa. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 By Silvanus, the faithful brother to you, as I reckon, I wrote because of a few things, exhorting and testifying this to be the true grace of God in which ye stand.
Me nua ogyidini Silwano na ɔboaa me maa metwerɛɛ saa krataa tiawa yi. Mepɛ sɛ mehyɛ mo nkuran na medi adanseɛ sɛ, yei yɛ Onyankopɔn adom kann. Monnyina mu dennen.
13 She in Babylon, chosen together, salutes you, and my son Mark.
Asafo a Onyankopɔn ayi wɔ Babilonia no ne me ba Marko kyea mo.
14 Salute each other by a kiss of love. Peace to you, to all those in Christ Jesus. Truly.
Momfa ɔdɔ atuuyɛ wɔ Kristo mu nkyeakyea mo ho mo ho. Asomdwoeɛ nka mo a mowɔ Kristo mu no nyinaa.
