1 Peter 5
1 Therefore, I beg the elders who are among you, as one who is also an elder and a witness of the Passion of Christ, who also shares in that glory which is to be revealed in the future:
Ni mi bi ninkon wa me mi ninkon, wa ba chume ni shishi kpa-ya Yesu Kiristi, ni hla ndindima u bachi dun ba toh.
2 pasture the flock of God that is among you, providing for it, not as a requirement, but willingly, in accord with God, and not for the sake of tainted profit, but freely,
Zizan tie ndu vren u krju ntma ni kpa nyemme, ana ni gbigbina, ana ni kpa-sɦăn na.
3 not so as to dominate by means of the clerical state, but so as to be formed into a flock from the heart.
Na ban tu me ndi wu ninkon ni shishi indi wa u ya'ba na, se “u” ka tsroba inkoh tie ndindi u ntma.
4 And when the Leader of pastors will have appeared, you shall secure an unfading crown of glory.
Ninkon u krju ntma ni ta bwu shishi niwu, u fe pri-nzeh u tuntur.
5 Similarly, young persons, be subject to the elders. And infuse all humility among one another, for God resists the arrogant, but to the humble he gives grace.
A naki biyi mri-nzeh wawu, ka tu nbi grji ni bi ninkon nitoh tu-nbi ni nfutu, na kpa ri-mbi tsri na. Irji na nyimme ni-ndi wa ni nzutu na.
6 And so, be humbled under the powerful hand of God, so that he may exalt you in the time of visitation.
Njitu-mbi grji dun Irji zoh yi.
7 Cast all your cares upon him, for he takes care of you.
Ka wawu sisri meh don ni-Wu, Wawu yi ni kata.
8 Be sober and vigilant. For your adversary, the devil, is like a roaring lion, traveling around and seeking those whom he might devour.
Mmla yah, mmla zren, meme-a ni-zren ni kagon ni wa-indi wa a ni ta'n na-ichen u'yon.
9 Resist him by being strong in faith, being aware that the same passions afflict those who are your brothers in the world.
Ka'me niwũ. Kri mgbamgba ni yo-sron. U toh indi bi hu Irji ni mgumgblu ba si shaya naaki me.
10 But the God of all grace, who has called us to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will himself perfect, confirm, and establish us, after a brief time of suffering. (aiōnios g166)
Ni-gon iya wa uti ni'nton tsaame. Irji (Bachi) u ko'nge, iwa a yo, a ye ni sisren u tuntur ni Yesu Kiristi, ani nu mgbemgble na mlawu ti. (aiōnios g166)
Ni shullu mba ni memme ndu son chu ma. Anaki. (aiōn g165)
12 I have written briefly, through Sylvanus, whom I consider to be a faithful brother to you, begging and testifying that this is the true grace of God, in which you have been established.
I'me mi kpa-nyime ni Silvanus a vayi u yer-yer, mi hla ni yiwu tsa-me ni wawuyi.
13 The Church which is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you, as does my son, Mark.
Mi hla yiwu gbigbi kpe wa mi hla a njanji tre Irji mi kri nitu ma. Iwah u Babilon wa bi kpa indu ni ntoh ṛiři asi chi yi. Ivren mu Markus ngame asi chi yi.
14 Greet one another with a holy kiss. Grace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Chi kpambi ni kurju uu (kiss) isohn. Si dun he ni yi ni den Yesu.
