1 Peter 5
1 The elders who are among you I exhort, I, the fellow elder and witness of Christ's sufferings; also the partaker of the glory that is to be revealed:
Nne nili kalongolele nnjenunji jwa likanisha na nkukong'ondela jwa mboteko ya a Kilishitu nneila peila shingundikanywe muukonjelo upinga bhoneka kungaigo, ngunakunshondelesheyanga,
2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers willingly, not under compulsion; not for dishonest gain but freely;
nnishunganje likundi lya a Nnungu limpegwilwenje, nnigoyanje nngabha kwa shishilishiywa, ikabhe kwa engwa malinga shibhapinga a Nnungu. Ntendanje lyene liengolyo nngabha kwa lukobho lwa ela ikabhe kwa ntima gwa kwaatumishila a Nnungu.
3 neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock.
Nnaabhuyanje bhandunji bhumpegwilwenje kwaalongoyanga, ikabhe mmanganje nnandanyo gwa kaguywa nnikundimo.
4 And when the Chief Shepherd is revealed you will receive the unfading crown of glory.
Pushakoposhele Nshunga Nkulu shimpegwanje shilemba sha ukonjelo shangaangabhanyika.
5 Similarly, you younger ones, submit to elders. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, submitting to one another, because ‘God resists proud ones, but gives grace to humble ones.’
Nneyo peyo numbe mmanganya mmangwendo nkundanje inkubhalanjilwanga na bhanangulungwa bha makanisha. Mmanganya mmowenji mwiitimalikanje nnijangutilananga, pabha Majandiko ga ukonjelo gakuti. “A Nnungu bhanakwaataukanga bhandunji bha kwiipuna, ikabheje bhanakwapanganga nema bhakwiitimalikanga.”
6 Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time;
Bhai, mwiitimalikanje mmakono ga Bhakulungwa a Nnungu, nkupinga bhannjinulanje pa malanga ga pwaa.
7 casting all your care upon Him, because He does the caring for you.
Mwaapeleshelanje ngolobha yenunji yowe, pabha shibhampanganje inkuloleyanga.
8 Be sober, stay alert! Because your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is circling you, looking for someone to devour;
Mwitetelesheyanje na nsheyanje! Pabha mmagongo njenunji Lishetani, anakonangona mbuti imba jitongola jililoleya jwa kunkamula.
9 withstand him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.
Mwiishimilikanje nngulupai na munkananje, akuno nnikumumanyanga kuti ashaapwenunji nshilambolyo bhanapatanga mboteko yoyo.
10 Now may the God of all grace, who called you into His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, Himself perfect, establish, strengthen and ground you—after you have suffered a while. (aiōnios g166)
Na a Nnungu bhakwete nema, bhanshemilenje kujinjila muukonjelo gwabho gwa pitipiti nkulundana na Kilishitu, mpotekwangaga kwa mobha gashoko, bhayene shibhanng'alayanje, nikunshimilikanga na kumpanganga mashili. (aiōnios g166)
Bhenebho ni a Nnungu bhakwete mashili pitipiti! Amina. (aiōn g165)
12 I have written to you briefly by our faithful brother Silvanus, as I consider him, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
Njikunnjandishilanga malobhe gashokope gano kwa jangutilwa na a Shilibhanushi, bhunaamanyi kuti bhakilishitu ajangu bha kulupalika. Ngunakuntaganga ntima kwa kunnkong'ondelanga kuti jejino kweli nema ja a Nnungu. Ntamangane ukoto na jene nema jino.
13 The jointly elect sister in ‘Babylon’ greets you; and so does Mark, my son.
Bhandunji ajenunji bha a Nnungu bhalinginji ku Bhabhuloni kuno na a Maliko bhanakunnamushilanga.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you, all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Nnamushilananje kwa pingana Shikilishitu. Ngunakunnjujilanga ulele mmowenji, nninginji bha a Kilishitu.
