1 Peter 2
1 So give up all the evil things that you do: all your dishonesty, hypocrisy, and jealousy, all the ways you speak badly about others.
Ishi bhishi gushenje ubhibhi wonti, akhopele, amaliwo uwivu nu uzemele.
2 You should become like newborn babies who only want pure spiritual milk, so you can grow in salvation
Hansi abhana abhela, sungwaji izibha ilinza lya humoyo, ili muwezye akule mhati yilokole,
3 now you've tasted how good the Lord really is.
hansi shalenjele aje Ugosi mwinza.
4 As you come to him—the living stone that people rejected as useless, but is chosen by God and precious to him—
Inzaji hukwakwe wali liwe liwomi lilikhala na likhanilwe na bhantu, lelo lisaluliwe no Ngolobhe na hwamwene shoma.
5 you also become like living stones, being built into a spiritual house. You are a holy priesthood that offers spiritual sacrifices that God welcomes through Jesus Christ.
Amwe mlihansi amawe gagali momi gaga zengwa mmwanya abhe nyumba yishimoyo, ili abhe udimi ufinjile ambalo lufumya insayilo zyetehwelwe no Ngolobhe ashilile hisa Yesu UKilisti.
6 As Scripture says, “See! I'm setting in Zion its main cornerstone, specially-chosen and valuable. Whoever trusts in him will not be disappointed.”
Iizi liyanga liga, “Enya, embeshele pa Sayuni iwe lya pashenje, ekolo na lisalulilwe na shoma. Wowonti wayeteshe hwa mwene saganilola insoni.
7 He is very valuable to you who do trust. But for those who don't, “The stone the builders rejected that became the main cornerstone”
Esho inshinshi yenyu humwenyu amwe mumweteshe.” Lelo, “iwe lilikhanilwe na bhabhazenga, eli lifanyishe liwe lingovu lya honshenje”-
8 is “The stone that trips you up and the rock that makes you fall.” People stumble over this message because they refuse to accept it—which for them is entirely predictable.
na, “Iwe lya bomele napakhome pa bomelele. “Abhene bhabomela bhahuli khana iizu, whalila lyabhasaluliwe analyo.
9 In complete contrast, you are a specially-chosen family, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God. Consequently you can reveal the wonderful things he's done, calling you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Amwe mlishigholo shishisalulililwe udimi weshemwene, taifa liafinjilwe, bhantu bha tabhale no Ngolobhe, ili mwezye ahenezye imbombo na mayele gola wabhakwizizye afume muhisi ahenze uhuzela whimayele.
10 In the past you were nobodies, but now you are God's people. In the past you hadn't received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Amwe humwanzo sagamwali bhantu, eshi isalezi amwe mlibhantu bha Ngolobhe. Amwe sagamwaposhelee wene, eshi isalezi mposheyele wene, eshi isalezi mposheyele wene.
11 My friends, I'm pleading with you as foreigners and strangers in this world not to give in to physical desires that are in conflict with what is spiritual.
Bhaganwe imbakwizizye hansi abhajenu na bhazyongole hujime afume mntamanizyo imbovu zimbibhi ambazyo zikhanana ologo numoyo gwenyu.
12 Be sure to act appropriately when you're with non-Christians, so even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see the good things you do and glorify God when he comes.
Muhanziwa mabhe ni injendo inyinza pahata papagani, hata kabhayanga aje muwombile imbombo imbibhi, bhanza mwawenye imbombo zyenyu inyinza na hunteme Ungulobhe hwisiku lyayenza.
13 Obey human authority for the Lord's sake, whether it is the king as the highest authority,
Eteha kila indajizyo zya lajizwa umwanadamu kwajili ya Gosi, nkeshe ugonsi yumwene,
14 or governors that God appoints to punish those who do evil and to commend those who do good.
nkesho bhabhatabhalabhatumwilwe hubhaazbu bhawomba aminza. Afyatane aje lugano lwa Ngulobhe.
15 By doing what is good and right God wants you to silence the ignorant accusations of foolish people.
Eshi awombe aminza mpomezwa injayo yiwalangani yibhantu bhinjele nazimo.
16 Yes, you are free people! So don't use your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but live as God's servants.
Nkesho abhantu bhalibhaushe, mungajeafanye uwaushe wenyu hansi igubishilo humbibhi, Nafu mubhe bhawombibhi bha Ngulobhe.
17 Respect everyone. Show your love to the community of believers. Have reverence for God. Respect the king.
Tihaje hubhantu wonti. Bhasongwaji aholo. Tetemehaji hwa Ngulobhe hihaga hwa mwene.
18 If you are a servant then submit to your master—not just those who are good and kind, but those who are harsh masters as well.
Antumwa, eshimuji agosi abhenyu huheshima zyonti, saga bhagosi abhinza na apomakati, hata abhibhi.
19 For this is what grace is: to endure life's pain and unfair suffering, keeping your focus on God.
Kwa sababu intemo yoyonti abhamanyanaje nu vwalale lwayemba pasaga pali utabhalwe ihatiya iyakwe Ungulobhe.
20 However, there's no credit when you're punished for doing something wrong. But if you suffer for doing what is good and right, and you put up with it, then God's grace is with you.
Huli ifaida yenu yeleho hya mwanadamu awombe imbibhi na hwendelele ahwazibiwu? Eshi nkamwawomba aminza ndoo mwenze apate amalabha whalongwe ene ntemo inyinza wha Ngulobhe.
21 In fact this is what you were called to do, because Christ suffered for you and gave you an example, so you should follow in his footsteps.
Wheli mwakizwilwe whisabu UKilisti ayembele kwajili iyenyu abhalesheye ifananisyo kwa ajili yenyu afwate amana gakwe.
22 He never sinned, he never lied;
Umwene sagawombile imbibhi, saga waloleshe ugobezi wowonti mwilomu lyakwe.
23 and when he was badly treated, he didn't retaliate. When he suffered, he didn't threaten to take revenge. He simply placed himself in the hands of the one who always judges rightly.
Umwene lwaligwaga, sagawezezezye indigo, lwayembaga, sagahogo fezye ajifumizizye mwene, hwa mwene.
24 He took the consequences of our sins on himself in his body on the cross, so that we could die to sin and live rightly. “By his wounds you are healed.”
Yuyo mwene awosezye imbibhi zyetu mbele gwakwe mwikwi, ili tisahabhe sehemu tenayimbibhi na tisahabhe sehemu tenayimbibhina iwhanziwa tihkalaje kwajili yihaki ahgomwe hwakwe amwe mponile.
25 At one time you were like sheep who had lost their way, but now you've returned to the Shepherd—the one who watches over you.
Wonti mwalelo atanjetanje hansi ingole yitejile, ishi isalezi muwelile wha mputi na umlinzi wiroho zyenyu.
