1 Peter 2
1 Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander.
Ishi bhishi gushenje ubhibhi wonti, akhopele, amaliwo uwivu nu uzemele.
2 Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,
Hansi abhana abhela, sungwaji izibha ilinza lya humoyo, ili muwezye akule mhati yilokole,
3 now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.
hansi shalenjele aje Ugosi mwinza.
4 As you come to Him, the living stone, rejected by men but chosen and precious in God’s sight,
Inzaji hukwakwe wali liwe liwomi lilikhala na likhanilwe na bhantu, lelo lisaluliwe no Ngolobhe na hwamwene shoma.
5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
Amwe mlihansi amawe gagali momi gaga zengwa mmwanya abhe nyumba yishimoyo, ili abhe udimi ufinjile ambalo lufumya insayilo zyetehwelwe no Ngolobhe ashilile hisa Yesu UKilisti.
6 For it stands in Scripture: “See, I lay in Zion a stone, a chosen and precious cornerstone; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”
Iizi liyanga liga, “Enya, embeshele pa Sayuni iwe lya pashenje, ekolo na lisalulilwe na shoma. Wowonti wayeteshe hwa mwene saganilola insoni.
7 To you who believe, then, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,”
Esho inshinshi yenyu humwenyu amwe mumweteshe.” Lelo, “iwe lilikhanilwe na bhabhazenga, eli lifanyishe liwe lingovu lya honshenje”-
8 and, “A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word—and to this they were appointed.
na, “Iwe lya bomele napakhome pa bomelele. “Abhene bhabomela bhahuli khana iizu, whalila lyabhasaluliwe analyo.
9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
Amwe mlishigholo shishisalulililwe udimi weshemwene, taifa liafinjilwe, bhantu bha tabhale no Ngolobhe, ili mwezye ahenezye imbombo na mayele gola wabhakwizizye afume muhisi ahenze uhuzela whimayele.
10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Amwe humwanzo sagamwali bhantu, eshi isalezi amwe mlibhantu bha Ngolobhe. Amwe sagamwaposhelee wene, eshi isalezi mposheyele wene, eshi isalezi mposheyele wene.
11 Beloved, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from the desires of the flesh, which war against your soul.
Bhaganwe imbakwizizye hansi abhajenu na bhazyongole hujime afume mntamanizyo imbovu zimbibhi ambazyo zikhanana ologo numoyo gwenyu.
12 Conduct yourselves with such honor among the Gentiles that, though they slander you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day He visits us.
Muhanziwa mabhe ni injendo inyinza pahata papagani, hata kabhayanga aje muwombile imbombo imbibhi, bhanza mwawenye imbombo zyenyu inyinza na hunteme Ungulobhe hwisiku lyayenza.
13 Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether to the king as the supreme authority,
Eteha kila indajizyo zya lajizwa umwanadamu kwajili ya Gosi, nkeshe ugonsi yumwene,
14 or to governors as those sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise those who do right.
nkesho bhabhatabhalabhatumwilwe hubhaazbu bhawomba aminza. Afyatane aje lugano lwa Ngulobhe.
15 For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorance of foolish men.
Eshi awombe aminza mpomezwa injayo yiwalangani yibhantu bhinjele nazimo.
16 Live in freedom, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.
Nkesho abhantu bhalibhaushe, mungajeafanye uwaushe wenyu hansi igubishilo humbibhi, Nafu mubhe bhawombibhi bha Ngulobhe.
17 Treat everyone with high regard: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor the king.
Tihaje hubhantu wonti. Bhasongwaji aholo. Tetemehaji hwa Ngulobhe hihaga hwa mwene.
18 Servants, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but even to those who are unreasonable.
Antumwa, eshimuji agosi abhenyu huheshima zyonti, saga bhagosi abhinza na apomakati, hata abhibhi.
19 For if anyone endures the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God, this is to be commended.
Kwa sababu intemo yoyonti abhamanyanaje nu vwalale lwayemba pasaga pali utabhalwe ihatiya iyakwe Ungulobhe.
20 How is it to your credit if you are beaten for doing wrong and you endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.
Huli ifaida yenu yeleho hya mwanadamu awombe imbibhi na hwendelele ahwazibiwu? Eshi nkamwawomba aminza ndoo mwenze apate amalabha whalongwe ene ntemo inyinza wha Ngulobhe.
21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in His footsteps:
Wheli mwakizwilwe whisabu UKilisti ayembele kwajili iyenyu abhalesheye ifananisyo kwa ajili yenyu afwate amana gakwe.
22 “He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in His mouth.”
Umwene sagawombile imbibhi, saga waloleshe ugobezi wowonti mwilomu lyakwe.
23 When they heaped abuse on Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly.
Umwene lwaligwaga, sagawezezezye indigo, lwayembaga, sagahogo fezye ajifumizizye mwene, hwa mwene.
24 He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. “By His stripes you are healed.”
Yuyo mwene awosezye imbibhi zyetu mbele gwakwe mwikwi, ili tisahabhe sehemu tenayimbibhi na tisahabhe sehemu tenayimbibhina iwhanziwa tihkalaje kwajili yihaki ahgomwe hwakwe amwe mponile.
25 For “you were like sheep going astray,” but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
Wonti mwalelo atanjetanje hansi ingole yitejile, ishi isalezi muwelile wha mputi na umlinzi wiroho zyenyu.
