1 Peter 5
1 As a fellow elder, a witness of Christ’s sufferings, and a partaker of the glory to be revealed, I appeal to the elders among you:
Christ thuakna te i tetti le hong kilang tu minthanna zong a neipui keima zong upa ka hi hu in note sung ah upa te kong hanthawn hi:
2 Be shepherds of God’s flock that is among you, watching over them not out of compulsion, but because it is God’s will; not out of greed, but out of eagerness;
Note sung ah a om Pathian tuuhon te vak vun a, a kul hamtang hang hi ngawl in deisakna taw ahizong; a thiangtho ngawl duhopna hang hi ngawl in, thinsung ki ngingkhol in en tavun;
3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.
Pathian i neisa tung ah to te bang in uk heak vun, ahihang tuuhon te ettetak in om zaw vun.
4 And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away.
Taciang tuucing lianbel hong kilang ciang in, a vul thei ngawl minthanna kham lukhu na sang tu uh hi.
5 Young men, in the same way, submit yourselves to your elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Tabangma in, no khangno te in khangham te thu ni vun. Na vekpi in khat le khat thu ki ni tavun, taciang ki niamkhiakna sil vun: banghangziam cile Pathian in a ki phasak te nalh a, a ki niamkhiak te thuthiamna pia hi.
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you.
Tua ahikom Pathian i a thahat khut nuai ah noma le noma ki niamkhiak vun a, a hun a cin ciang in Ama in hong lamsang tu hi:
7 Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you.
Ama in note hong thintoi ahikom in; note i thinngimna theampo sia Ama tung ah ap siat vun.
8 Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
Pilvang vun, kidawm in ngak vun; banghangziam cile na ngalpa uh doaimangpa sia a hawk vabam tawpi bang in akua lopval tu khi ziam, ci zong in vak hi:
9 Resist him, standing firm in your faith and in the knowledge that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.
Leitung ngam tatuam ah na suapui uh te zong tabangma haksatna thuak hi, ci sia phawk in upna sung ah kip in doaimangpa nalh tavun.
10 And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you, secure you, strengthen you, and establish you. (aiōnios g166)
Christ Jesus tungtawn in eite tawntung minthanna sung ah hongsam, thuthiamna theampo i Pathian in tawmvei haksatna na thuak zawk uh ciang in, hong cialcingsak in hong khosak tu a, tha hong hatsak in hong kipsak tu hi. (aiōnios g166)
Vangletna le ukzawkna sia a tawntung in Ama tung ah om tahen. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, whom I regard as a faithful brother, I have written to you briefly, encouraging you and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it.
Keima in note kong hanthotna, na dinmun uh sia Pathian i thuthiamna tatak hi, ci sia tettipang in hi lai a tomno in kong thak sia a thuman suapui Silvanus tung ah kong thak hi.
13 The church in Babylon, chosen together with you, sends you greetings, as does my son Mark.
Babylon a om pawlpi, note taw hong kiteal khawm te in hong paupui hi; taciang ka tapa Marcus in zong hong paupui hi.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to all of you who are in Christ.
Itna i kinapna taw khat le khat ki nukset tavun. Christ Jesus sung ah a om note theampo tung ah thinnopna hong om tahen. Amen.
