< 1 Peter 3 >
1 Likewise let the wiues bee subiect to their husbands, that euen they which obey not the worde, may without the worde be wonne by the conuersation of the wiues,
Kwa nj'hela ej'he, muenga ambabho ndo bhadala mwilondeka kwih'omesya kwa bhagosi bhinu mwej'homu, ili hata kama bhaadhi j'ha bhene bhabelili kulitii lilobhi, kup'hetela tabia sya bhadala bhabhi bhibhwesya kufutibhwa bila litobhi.
2 While they beholde your pure conuersation, which is with feare.
Kwa ndabha bhene bhibekuj'ha bhaj'hibhwene tabia j'hinu j'hinofu pamonga ni litengo.
3 Whose apparelling, let it not be that outwarde, with broyded heare, and golde put about, or in putting on of apparell:
Ej'he j'hibhombeka j'hi sio kwa mapambo gha kwibhala—-kusuka njwili, vito vya dhahabu, au mavazi gha mtindo.
4 But let it bee the hidde man of the heart, which consisteth in the incorruption of a meeke and quiet spirite, which is before God a thing much set by.
Lakini badala j'hiake j'hibhombekai kwa utu bhwa mugati mu n'teema, ni kuzidi mu bhonofu bhwa bhunyenyekevu ni bhutulivu bhwa n'teema, ambabho ndo bhwa thamani pamihu pa k'yara.
5 For euen after this maner in time past did the holy women, which trusted in God, tire them selues, and were subiect to their husbands.
Kwa kuj'ha bhadala bhatakatifu bha kipambili bhene kwa nj'hela ej'he. Bhaj'hele ni imani kwa k'yara na bhabhatilii bhagosi bhabhu bhene.
6 As Sara obeyed Abraham, and called him Sir: whose daughters ye are, whiles yee doe well, not being afraide of any terrour.
Kwa nj'hela ej'he Sara alimtii Ibrahimu ni kunkuta muene “N'gosi” ghwa muene. Muenga henu ndo bhanabhabhi kama bhib'eta kubhomba ghaghaj'hele manofu na kama mwitila lepi mabhibhi.
7 Likewise ye husbands, dwel with them as men of knowledge, giuing honour vnto the woman, as vnto the weaker vessell, euen as they which are heires together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not interrupted.
Kwa nj'ela ej'hu muenga bhagosi mwilondeka kutama ni bhadala bhinu Mkamanyai kujobha bhene ndo bhaenzi bhinu bhadala dhaifu, mkabhamanyai bhene kama bhapokelaji bhaj'hinu bha zawadi j'ha bhusima. Mubhombagha naha ili kuj'ha maombi ghinu, ghasibesibhu.
8 Finally, be ye all of one minde: one suffer with another: loue as brethren: bee pitifull: bee courteous,
Hatimaye, muenga mwebhoha, muj'hiage ni nia j'himonga, bha bhejhe ni k'hesa, Luganu kama bhulongo, bhanyenyekevu ni bhapole.
9 Not rendring euil for euill, neither rebuke for rebuke: but contrarywise blesse, knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should be heires of blessing.
Musilepi bhuovu kwa bhuovu, au lilighu kwa lilighu. kinyume kyake muj'hendelelaghe kubariki kwandabha ej'he mwabarikibhu ni kukutibhwa, ili mubhwesiaghe kurithi baraka.
10 For if any man long after life, and to see good dayes, let him refraine his tongue from euill, and his lippes that they speake no guile.
“Muene j'hailonda kugana maisha ni kubhona ligono linofu lazima aubesyagha lulimi lwake kwa mabhibhi ni milomo ghiake kujobha hila.
11 Let him eschew euil, and do good: let him seeke peace, and follow after it.
Na ageukaghe ni kuleka mabhibhi ni kubhomba ghaghaj'hele manofu. Alondai amani ni kuj'hifuata.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are ouer the righteous, and his eares are open vnto their prayers: and the face of the Lord is against them that do euil.
Mihugha Bwana ghakambona j'heaj'he ni haki ni mbol'okhoto syake sikamp'heleka maombi ghake. Lakini pamihu pa Bwana uj'he kinyume kya bhala bhabhomba maovu”.
13 And who is it that will harme you, if ye follow that which is good?
Niani ibeta kubhazuru muenga, ikajhiaghe mwitamani ghaghaj'hele manofu?
14 Notwithstanding blessed are ye, if ye suffer for righteousnes sake. Yea, feare not their feare, neither be troubled.
Lakini kama mwibetakutesibhwa kwa haki, m'barikibhu. Musitili ghala ambagho bhene bhitila. Musij'hi ni wasiwasi.
15 But sanctifie the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready alwayes to giue an answere to euery man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekenesse and reuerence,
Badala j'hiake mumb'ekaghe Kristu Bwana mu mi'teema ghinu kama n'takatifu. Kila bhwakati muj'hiaghe tayari kun'jibu kila munu j'haikabhakhota muenga kwandabha j'hakiki mwikiera kwa k'yara. Mubhombaghe naha kwa bhololo ni litengo.
16 Hauing a good coscience, that whe they speake euill of you as of euill doers, they may be ashamed, which slander your good conuersation in Christ.
Muj'hiagha ni dhamiri j'hinofu ili bhanu bhabhiligha maisha ghinu manofu mu Kristu bhabhwesiaghe kuaibika kwandabha bhilongela kinyume dhidi j'hinu kama mwaj'hele bhabhomba maovu.
17 For it is better (if the will of God be so) that ye suffer for well doing, then for euil doing.
Ni kinofu kit'opu, ikaj'hiaghe k'yara ingonywa, kuj'ha mwiteseka kwa kubhomba manofu kuliko kwa kubhomba mabhibhi.
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sinnes, the iust for the vniust, that he might bring vs to God, and was put to death concerning the flesh, but was quickened by the spirit.
Kristu pia atesiki mara j'himonga kwandabha j'ha dhambi. Muene ambaj'he ndo nkolo haki atesiki kwa ndabha j'hitu, ambabho bhibeta kuj'ha bhenye haki, ili kuj'ha atuletayi tete kwa k'yara. Afwili ni m'mb'ele, lakini abhonibibhu nsima mu roho.
19 By the which hee also went, and preached vnto the spirits that are in prison.
Mu roho alotili ni kusihubiri roho ambasyo henu si j'hele mu kifungu.
20 Which were in time passed disobedient, when once the long suffering of God abode in the dayes of Noe, while the Arke was preparing, wherein fewe, that is, eight soules were saued in the water.
Syajhelepi tiifu bhwakati bhuvumilivu bhwa k'yara ghwilenda bhwakati bhwa Nuhu, ligono lya bhujenzi bhwa safina, ni k'yara abhaokwili bhanu bhadebe —nafsi nane— kuh'omela mmasi.
21 Whereof the baptisme that nowe is, answering that figure, (which is not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but a confident demaunding which a good conscience maketh to God) saueth vs also by the resurrection of Iesus Christ,
Ej'he ndo alama j'ha bhubatiso bhwabhwikabhaokola muenga henu, siyo kama kusuka bhuchafu kuh'omela mu m'mb'ele, lakini kama ombi la dhamiri j'hinofu kwa k'yara, Kup'hetela bhufufuo bhwa Yesu Kristu.
22 Which is at the right hand of God, gone into heauen, to whom the Angels, and Powers, and might are subiect.
Muene aj'hele mu kibhoko kya kuume bhwa k'yara. Alotili kumbinguni. Malaika, mamlaka, ni ngofu lasima vimtii muene
