< 1 Peter 1 >

1 PETER an Apostle of IESVS CHRIST, to the strangers that dwell here and there throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia,
Nze Peetero omutume wa Yesu Kristo, mpandiikira abalonde ba Katonda, abaasaasaanira mu Ponto, ne mu Ggalatiya ne mu Kapadokiya, ne mu Asiya ne mu Bisuniya,
2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God ye Father vnto sanctification of ye Spirit, through obedience and sprinkeling of the blood of Iesus Christ: Grace and peace bee multiplied vnto you.
Katonda Kitaffe be yasooka okumanya ne batukuzibwa Omwoyo olw’okugondere Yesu Kristo, era ne balongoosebwa n’omusaayi ggwe, ogwabamansirwako. Ekisa n’emirembe byeyongerenga mu mmwe.
3 Blessed bee God, euen the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ, which according to his aboundant mercie hath begotten vs againe vnto a liuely hope by the resurrection of Iesus Christ from the dead,
Katonda Kitaawe wa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo atenderezebwe. Olw’okusaasira kwe okungi twazaalibwa mu bulamu obulina essuubi omulundi ogwokubiri, olw’okuzuukira kwa Yesu Kristo mu bafu.
4 To an inheritance immortall and vndefiled, and that withereth not, reserued in heauen for vs,
Bw’atyo n’atusuubiza omugabo mu busika, ogw’olubeerera ogutakyusa langi era ogutafuma, gw’atuterekedde mu ggulu.
5 Which are kept by the power of God through faith vnto saluation, which is prepared to be shewed in the last time.
Era Katonda, mu buyinza bwe, alibakuuma olw’okukkiriza kwammwe, n’abatuusa mu bulokozi obwateekebwateekebwa okubikkulirwa mu biro eby’enkomerero.
6 Wherein yee reioyce, though nowe for a season (if neede require) yee are in heauinesse, through manifolde tentations,
Ekyo, kijja kubasanyusa nnyo newaakubadde nga mujja kusanga ebizibu bya ngeri nnyingi okumala akaseera.
7 That the triall of your faith, being much more precious then golde that perisheth (though it be tried with fire) might bee founde vnto your praise, and honour and glorie at the appearing of Iesus Christ:
Kubanga okugezesebwa kw’okukkiriza kwammwe, kwa muwendo mungi nnyo okusinga zaabu egezebwa mu muliro n’ekakasibwa, kulyoke kusaanire ettendo n’ekitiibwa n’okugulumizibwa ku lunaku luli Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo lw’alirabikirako.
8 Whome yee haue not seene, and yet loue him, in whome nowe, though yee see him not, yet doe you beleeue, and reioyce with ioy vnspeakeable and glorious,
Newaakubadde nga Yesu oyo temumulabangako, kyokka mumwagala, era ne kaakano temumulaba naye mumukkiriza ne mujjula essanyu eritayogerekeka ne mumugulumiza,
9 Receiuing the ende of your faith, euen the saluation of your soules.
era ekiva mu kukkiriza kwammwe kwe kulokolebwa kw’emyoyo gyammwe.
10 Of the which saluation ye Prophets haue inquired and searched, which prophecied of the grace that should come vnto you,
Bannabbi baafuba nga bwe baasobola okuvumbula era n’okutegeera okulokolebwa kuno, ne bategeeza eby’omu maaso ku kisa kya Katonda ky’agenda okubawa.
11 Searching when or what time the Spirite which testified before of Christ which was in them, shoulde declare the sufferings that should come vnto Christ, and the glorie that shoulde follow.
Omwoyo wa Kristo ng’ali mu bo, yategeeza eby’omu maaso ku kubonaabona kwa Kristo era n’ekitiibwa ekiriddirira, ne bafuba okuvumbula omuntu gwe kirituukako n’ekiseera we kirituukira.
12 Vnto whome it was reueiled, that not vnto themselues, but vnto vs they shoulde minister the things, which are nowe shewed vnto you by them which haue preached vnto you the Gospell by the holy Ghost sent downe from heauen, the which things the Angels desire to beholde.
Bannabbi bano Katonda yabalaga nti ebyo tebabikola ku lwabwe, wabula ku lwammwe. Era kaakano Enjiri ebuuliddwa gye tuli ffenna. Yatubuulirwa mu maanyi ga Mwoyo Mutukuvu eyava mu ggulu. Bino by’ebintu ne bamalayika bye bayaayaanira okutegeera.
13 Wherefore, girde vp the Ioynes of your minde: bee sober, and trust perfectly on that grace that is brought vnto you, in the reuelation of Iesus Christ,
Noolwekyo mwetegeke nga muli bateefu, nga mutadde emitima gyammwe ku kisa kya Katonda ekiribaweebwa, Yesu Kristo bw’alirabika.
14 As obedient children, not fashioning your selues vnto the former lustes of your ignorance:
Mugonderenga Katonda, kubanga muli baana be, muleme kufugibwa okwegomba kwammwe okubi okw’edda, kwe mwatambulirangamu mu butamanya.
15 But as hee which hath called you, is holie, so be yee holie in all maner of conuersation;
Kale, nga Katonda eyabayita bw’ali omutukuvu, nammwe mubeerenga batukuvu mu byonna bye mukola.
16 Because it is written, Be yee holie, for I am holie.
Nga bwe kyawandiikibwa nti, “Mubenga batukuvu, kubanga nze ndi mutukuvu.”
17 And if ye call him Father, which without respect of person iudgeth according to euery mans woorke, passe the time of your dwelling here in feare,
Mujjukire nti Kitammwe gwe musaba, asalira omusango buli muntu awatali kusaliriza, musaana mumusseemu ekitiibwa, nga mwetwala ng’abagenyi ku nsi kuno.
18 Knowing that yee were not redeemed with corruptible things, as siluer and golde, from your vaine conuersation, receiued by the traditions of the fathers,
Kubanga mumanyi nti mwanunulibwa mu mpisa zammwe embi ezaava ku bajjajjammwe. Temwanunulibwa na bintu ebiggwaawo nga ffeeza oba zaabu.
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lambe vndefiled, and without spot.
Wabula mwanunulibwa n’omusaayi gwa Kristo ogw’omuwendo omungi ennyo, ogw’omwana gw’endiga ogutaliiko kamogo oba ebbala.
20 Which was ordeined before the foundation of the world, but was declared in the last times for your sakes,
Kristo yategekebwa dda nga n’ensi tennatondebwa, kyokka mu nnaku zino ezaakayita n’alabisibwa ku lwammwe.
21 Which by his meanes doe beleeue in God that raised him from the dead, and gaue him glorie, that your faith and hope might bee in God,
Mu ye, mwe mwayita okukkiriza Katonda eyamuzuukiza mu bafu, n’amuwa ekitiibwa, era okukkiriza kwammwe n’okusuubira kwammwe kyebivudde binywerera ku Katonda.
22 Hauing purified your soules in obeying the trueth through the spirite, to loue brotherly without faining, loue one another with a pure heart feruently,
Kale kaakano nga bwe mumaze okutukuza emyoyo gyammwe olw’okukkiriza amazima, ne mwagalanira ddala mu luganda lwennyini, mweyongere okwagalana n’omutima ogutaliimu bukuusa.
23 Being borne anewe, not of mortall seede, but of immortall, by the woorde of God, who liueth and endureth for euer. (aiōn g165)
Kubanga okusinziira mu kigambo kya Katonda ekiramu era eky’olubeerera, mwazaalibwa omulundi ogwokubiri. (aiōn g165)
24 For all flesh is as grasse, and all the glorie of man is as the flower of grasse. The grasse withereth, and the flower falleth away.
Kubanga, “Abantu bonna bali ng’omuddo, n’ekitiibwa kyabwe kiri ng’ekimuli ky’omuddo. Omuddo gukala, ekimuli kyagwo ne kigwa.
25 But the worde of the Lord endureth for euer: and this is the woorde which is preached among you. (aiōn g165)
Naye ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda kibeerera emirembe gyonna.” Era ekigambo ekyo y’Enjiri eyababuulirwa. (aiōn g165)
