< 1 Peter 3 >

1 Likewise, wives, [be] subject to your own husbands, that, even if any are disobedient to the word, they may be gained without [the] word by the conversation of the wives,
Na mmanganya mmandonyanji nnombilwenje, nkundanje inkubhalanjilwanga na ashimbuje bhenunji, nkupinga ibhaga bhapalinji bhanabhalume bhakaakulupalilanga ga lilobhe lya a Nnungu, bhai bhaibhonangaga itendi yenunji ya mmbone bhakulupalilanje. Wala gwangali kubheleketa lilobhe,
2 having witnessed your pure conversation [carried out] in fear;
pabha shibhaibhonanje itendi yenunji ya mmbone na ya kwaajogopa a Nnungu.
3 whose adorning let it not be that outward one of tressing of hair, and wearing gold, or putting on apparel;
Kwiikelengelela kwenunji kunabhe kwa indu ya bhoneka palangape na kuwalila indu ya shaabhu na nngubho ya konja.
4 but the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible [ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is of great price.
Ikabheje, kukonja kwenunji pukupinjikwa kubhe kwa gundu gwenunji gwa muntima, gwa indu yangaangabhanika, yani, ntima gwa uguja na kwiitimalika pabha genego ni gapinjikwa na a Nnungu.
5 For thus also the holy women who have hoped in God heretofore adorned themselves, being subject to their own husbands;
Nneyo ni shibhaikelengelelangaga bhanabhakongwe bha bhukala bhalinginji bha ukonjelo na bha kwaakulupalilanga a Nnungu na kunda ibhabhalanjilwangaga na ashimbuje bhabhonji.
6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children ye have become, doing good, and not fearing with any kind of consternation.
Malinga a Shala bhatendaga kunda ibhabhalanjilwaga na a Bhulaimu nikwaashema bhenebho bhakulungwa bhabho. Numbe mmanganya shimmanganje ashibhana bhabho ntendangaga ga mmbone gwangali kola lipamba lya shindu shoshowe.
7 [Ye] husbands likewise, dwell with [them] according to knowledge, as with a weaker, [even] the female, vessel, giving [them] honour, as also fellow-heirs of [the] grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
Numbe mmashileunji nnombilenje, nkolanje lunda punkutamangana na ashaakongobhenunji, nnapinjikwanga mwaatetelesheyanje malinga iumbe yangali mashili, pabha mpinga poshelanga mboka ya gumi pamo, nkupinga kujuga Nnungu kwenunji kunaibhililwe.
8 Finally, [be] all of one mind, sympathising, full of brotherly love, tender hearted, humble minded;
Kungai nguti, nnapinjikwanga nkolanje ntima gumo na ng'aniyo imo na mpingane shiulongo na mwiitimalikanje
9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing; but on the contrary, blessing [others], because ye have been called to this, that ye should inherit blessing.
Nnagalabhulanje yangali ya mmbone kwa yangali ya mmbone ku bhandu, eu kugalabhula matukano kwa matukano, ikabheje bhakuntendelanga yangali ya mmbone mwaajujilanje mboka, pabha mmanganya nshishemelwanga mboka na a Nnungu.
10 For he that will love life and see good days, let him cause his tongue to cease from evil and his lips that they speak no guile.
Malinga shigalugula Majandiko, “Apinga kuangalila kulama, na kugabhona mobha ga mboka, aibhilile lulimi lwakwe lunabhelekete yangali ya mmbone, na kang'wa jakwe jinabhelekete ya unami.
11 And let him avoid evil, and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it;
Aleshe yangali ya mmbone, atende ya mmbone, auloleye ulele na aukagulile kwa kaje.
12 because [the] eyes of [the] Lord [are] on [the] righteous, and his ears towards their supplications; but [the] face of [the] Lord [is] against them that do evil.
Pabha meyo ga Bhakulungwa ganakwaloleyanga bhakwetenje aki, na makutu gabho ganapilikanishiya kujuga kwabhonji. Ikabheje bhaatendanga yangali ya mmbone bhakakubhonanga kumeyo kwa Bhakulungwa.”
13 And who shall injure you if ye have become imitators of that which [is] good?
Gani shampotekanje ntumbilangaga kutenda ya uguja?
14 But if also ye should suffer for righteousness' sake, blessed [are ye]; but be not afraid of their fear, neither be troubled;
Ikabheje, nkali mpotekwangaga kwa ligongo lya tenda ya aki, bhai mbaya. Nnannjogopanje mundu jojowe, wala nnakolanje lipamba.
15 but sanctify [the] Lord the Christ in your hearts, and [be] always prepared to [give] an answer [to] every one that asks you to give an account of the hope that [is] in you, but with meekness and fear;
Ikabheje mwaaishimiyanje Kilishitu mmitima jenunji. Mmanganje tayali kunnjangula mundu jojowe shammuyanje ga ngulupai jili mmitima jenunji.
16 having a good conscience, that [as to that] in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may be ashamed who calumniate your good conversation in Christ.
Mwiibhikanje ng'aniyo yenunji ya muntima ibhe ya mmbone, nkupinga bhakummelekatanga ya kunnambililanga bhakolanje oni pubhakwiibhonanga itendi yenunji ya mmbone ya Shikilishitu.
17 For [it is] better, if the will of God should will it, to suffer [as] well-doers than [as] evildoers;
Pabha, mbaya kupotekwa kwa ligongo lya tenda ya uguja, monaga a Nnungu bhapinjile, nngabha kupotekwa kwa ligongo lya tenda yangali ya mmbone.
18 for Christ indeed has once suffered for sins, [the] just for [the] unjust, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in flesh, but made alive in [the] Spirit,
Pabha a Kilishitu bhayene bhapotekwe kamope, kwa ligongo lya bhandunji bhalebhilenje, mundu akwete aki kwa ligongo lya bhandunji bhangalinginji aki, kupinga bhampelekanje mmanganya kwa a Nnungu. Shiilu shabho gushibhulegwe, ikabheje kwa mashili gaka Mbumu, gubhapatile gumi kabhili,
19 in which also going he preached to the spirits [which are] in prison,
na kwa gwene gumigo nigubhapite kukwaalungushiyanga ashimbumu bhatabhilwenje bhala.
20 heretofore disobedient, when the longsuffering of God waited in [the] days of Noah while the ark was preparing, into which few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water:
Bhene bhanganyabho ni bhakanilenje kwaakunda a Nnungu, pubhaipililile kwaalindililanga a Nuu mobha gubhaalayaga shapina. Bhandunji bhashokope, yani bhandunji nane, gubhatapulwenje kuwa na mashi.
21 which figure also now saves you, [even] baptism, not a putting away of [the] filth of flesh, but [the] demand as before God of a good conscience, by [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Gene mashigo pugaliji malinga ubhatisho, ukuntapulanga mmanganya agano mobha gano. Ubhatisho nngabha ushoya ya nyata nshiilu, ikabhe malagano kwa a Nnungu ga tumbilila kutenda ya uguja. Unakuntapulanga kwa yuka kwabho a Yeshu Kilishitu,
22 who is at [the] right hand of God, gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being subjected to him.
nnaino a Yeshu bhapite kunnungu na bhatemi kunkono nnilo gwa a Nnungu, bhanatagwala ashimalaika bha a Nnungu na ukulungwa gowe.
