1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the elect who are exiles of the Dispersion throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, chosen
Jisu Kristo kaamwah, Pitar jiin nawa— Arah le ah Rangte ih danjeeta mina o Pontus ni, Galatia, Kappadosia, Asia nyia Bithania hadaang ni nokmah wensang ih saapta rumta loong raangtaan.
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father and sanctified by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by His blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance.
Sen loong ah Rangte mootkaat raangtaan ih Jisu Kristo jeng chaatchaatte angsuh nyia heh sih ih toom saasiit han suh adoleh Chiiala nawa ih esa noksong angthuk suh danje tahan. Rangte tenthet nyia semroongroong thoontang sen lakbui toom ang ah.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Seng Teesu Jisu Kristo Wah Rangte suh lakookmi ju li ih! Heh tenthet elong je thoidi Jisu Kristo ah etek nawa we ngaaksaat thuk ano seng suh roidong ena koh hali. Erah ih seng ething laalom ah koh hali,
4 and into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you,
eno Rangte ih heh mina loong suh romseetam hantek kot suh banthiin ha ah bansok hi. Sen loong raangtaan ih erah rangmong ni banthiin ha, maradi chaam uh tami chaamka adoleh thet uh tathika, adoleh emut uh tamutka.
5 who through faith are shielded by God’s power for the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.
Erah loong ah sen raangtaan, o mina sen tuumaang jun ih Rangte chaan nawa ih huthiin halan, eno khopiiroidong sen raangtaan ih thiinha ah rangthoon doh dongjat thuk han.
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in various trials
Erah raangtaan ih, amadoh sen loong ah phate chamnaang thoidoh pootsiit thungthet theng ang ah bah uh tenroon ih tong an.
7 so that the proven character of your faith—more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Erah chamnaang lan abah sen tuumaang ah thaangmuh tah angka ngeh ih jatthuk suh angla. Kom, thet jaat ah botse we ni thaaksook ha; an tuumaang, kom nang ih thaangchaan ah uh ejen naan esuh thaak phate jaatjaat ih ho. Eno juuba Jisu Kristo kaat Rangwuuja phoongpha, rangka nyia choomjoot ah choh an.
8 Though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and rejoice with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
Sen ih latup kandi heh minchan ehan, eno amadi latup kanbah uh hanpi ehan. Erah raangtaan ih tuikhoi ih lajen toobaatke tenroon elong nyia rangka theng ih roon lan,
9 now that you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
tiimnge liidoh, heh suh tiim raang ih tuumaang lan, erah senchi senla raangtaan ih khopiiroidong ah choh han.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets who foretold the grace to come to you searched and investigated carefully,
Khowah loong ih khopiiroidong tiit jamtoongte ta tiit ah arah, eno Rangte ih sen suh ranglakkot tiit banbaatta ah sen suh kohan.
11 trying to determine the time and setting to which the Spirit of Christ in them was pointing when He predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories to follow.
Neng ih saapoot ah tiimtok doh ang ah nyia mamah thok ha erah tiit ah jat suh taat thun rumta. Khowah loong sak ni Kristo Chiiala ah erah tokdi pah ano, cham anaang ah Kristo ih jen naan ah eno erah lih adoh heh men rangka tiit ah banjat rumta.
12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, when they foretold the things now announced by those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. Even angels long to look into these things.
Rangte ih khowah loong suh neng mootkaat pakna ah neng raangtaan tah angka ngeh ih dongjat thuk rumta, enoothong erah sen raangtaan, rangmong dowa Esa chiiala chaan aphaan nawa ih Ruurang Ese tiit baattaante loong asuh erah banbaat rumta ah baat halan. Erah loong tiit ah rangsah loong botseh jat esuh nookla.
13 Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober-minded. Set your hope fully on the grace to be given you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Erah raangtaan ih, erah reeraang suh senthung sentak nah banthun roh ih an. Jisu Kristo dongha doh sen suh kottheng romseetam ah raangtaan ih ban laalom an.
14 As obedient children, do not conform to the passions of your former ignorance.
Rangte jeng chaatchaat ih an, eno tiim uh lajat ih angtan dowa likhiik sen roidong ah hansi tenthun nah nak angthuk an.
15 But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do,
Erah nang ebah, sen loong poonte Rangte esa angla likhiik, tiimjih re anbah uh esa ang theng.
16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”
Rangteele ni liiha, “Esa ang an tiimnge liidi ngah esa.”
17 Since you call on a Father who judges each one’s work impartially, conduct yourselves in reverent fear during your stay as foreigners.
Sen ih Rangte rangsoom andi, Ewah li han, heh ih, mina loongtang neng reeraangla jun ih phoosiitsiit ih dande ha; erah raangtaan ih, sen loong ah arah hah adoh tong pootdoh heh men ah samthun roh ih anno songtong an.
18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life you inherited from your forefathers,
Tiimnge liidi sen ih jat ehan sen roidong di sente senwah loong ih lalangka lampo nyoot tahan dowa puipang suh tiimjih kota. Erah langla thetsiit jih hun nyia kom likhiik tah angka,
19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or spot.
erabah thaangchaan thoon Kristo ih hepuh hesak ah kota, hema muh saapsah likhiik angdowa.
20 He was known before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in the last times for your sake.
Mongrep maang dongsiitka di Rangte ih Jisu ah danje ano sen loong raangtaan ih liwang ni dongjat thuk ha.
21 Through Him you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him; and so your faith and hope are in God.
Sen ih Rangte ah heh jun ih hanpi han, marah heh ih tek nawa ngaaksaat thuk ano heh men rangka ha; erah raangtaan ih sen loong ah Rangte suh tuumaang lan nyia laalom lan.
22 Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth so that you have a genuine love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from a pure heart.
Erah thoidi amadi amiisak tiit jeng ah boichaat anno sen teenuh teewah saachamcham anglan eno hanpiite sen loong jaachi ni minchanmui elan, wasiit ih wasiit senten senmong nawa ih minchanmui lan.
23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God. (aiōn g165)
Tiimnge liidi ething nyia mabah uh lathoonka Rangte jengkhaap jun ih we doptup halan, sen wah etekjaat jun ih lah angthang ih latekjaat jun ih ah. (aiōn g165)
24 For, “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall,
Rangteele ni amah liiha’ Mina loongtang naam likhiik, eno neng rangka ah woma popong likhiik. Naam ah ehook ela, adoleh popong ah emut ela,
