1 Peter 4
1 CHRIST then having suffered for us in the flesh, be ye also in mind armed for the same conflict: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sinning;
Kuzwa ho, kakuli Keresite ava sukuluki ahulu mu nyama, mu wondese mwense cha munahano u swana. Mukuti iye yense yava sukuluki mu nyama ava zwi ku chivi.
2 that he might not spend the remaining space of life in the flesh after human passions, but the divine will.
Nihakuva vulyo, muntu wina vulyo, cha yonse inako yakwe mu nyama, kasi hali mu ntakazo ya vuntu, kono che ntato ye Ireza.
3 For the time past of life is enough for us to have wrought the will of the heathen, when we walked in all impurities, lewd appetites, excess of wine, revels, drinking-bouts, and abominable idolatries;
Che nako ilikene ha ihita ku chita chi va va ku saka kuchita va machava- vushyahi, intakazo, vuñyavi, minyaka ye fasi, minyaka ya hansi, ni mitendo mivi ya maswaniso.
4 wherein they think it a strange thing, that you are not running with them into the same gulph of profligacy, spreading every scandalous report of you:
Va tere vukavo kuti hamu sa vechilili navo mou muunda wa ku lyangana, mi vawamba vuvi ku amana nenwe.
5 who shall give an account to him, who holds himself ready to judge the living and the dead.
Kava hewe mulandu ko zo yo litukiseze atula va hala ni va fwile.
6 For to this end was the gospel preached to those that are dead, that they might be judged indeed in the flesh according to the will of men, but live in spirit according to the will of God.
Cho u mulelo Ivangeri ivali ku kutuzwa hape ku va fwile, njikuti, nanga vava va atulwa mwi nyama sina ko vuntu, ni va hale sina Ireza mu luhuho.
7 But the end of all things is near: be ye therefore sober-minded, and vigilant in prayers.
Ma maninizo ezi zintu chi a kezite hafuhi. Cwale muve mu talifa mu muhupulo, muve ni munahanelo ujolola che vaka lye ntapero.
8 But above all things have fervent love towards each other: for love will conceal a multitude of faults.
He wulu lyazintu zonse, muve ni rato ikando ku zumwi ni zumwi, mukuti irato li yala zingi zivi.
9 Exercise hospitality one towards another without grudgings.
Mu litambule vamwi ku vamwi cha kusa tongoka.
10 Let every one, according as he hath received a gift, minister it to others, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
Sina umwi no umwi wenu ava tambuli impo, mu i sebelise cha ku tendera umwi ku umwi. Mu chite izi sina cha vahikana va sepahala za Ireza mu mpo zingi za mahala.
11 If any man speak, let it be agreeably to the oracles of God; if any man act as a deacon, let it be from the strength which God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory and might for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Haiva umwi u wamba, mu siye ive ku ziho izo Ireza zaha. Mu cite izi zintu kuti mu nzila zonse Ireza a lumbiwe cha Jesu Keresite. Mi kuve inkanya ya Jesu Keresite ni maata ya kuya ku ile. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
12 Beloved, be not amazed at the fiery trial among you which is to bring you to the test, as though something strange happened to you;
Vasakahala, kanji mu hindi cho ku seziba ku likiwa mu mulilo uwo uva citahali kwenu, sina zintu zimu sezi zi va chitahali kwenu.
13 but as ye share in the sufferings of Christ rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory also ye may hail him with exultations.
Cwalehe, nikuva vulyo cha kuya ke nzibo mu kwi ziba masukukluko a Keresite, mu nyakalale, nji kuti hape ni muka nyakalale mi mu tabele kwiza kwe nkanya yakwe.
14 If ye suffer reproach for the name of Christ, blessed are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: by them indeed he is blasphemed, but by you he is glorified.
Haiva mu tukolwa che zina lya Keresite, mu fuyoletwe, kakuli Luhuho lwe nkanya ni Luhuho lwa Ireza lwina henu.
15 Let no one of you then suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or a meddler in other persons’ business.
Kono ku vuleke kwenu nanga yenke yete a sukululwe sina mwihayi, musa, mu tendi wa civi, kamba musinyi.
16 But if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him give glory to God on this very account.
Kono haiva zumwi u sukululwa cha kuva mulumeri, kanji a swabi; kono, mumu leke a lumbe Ireza chelyo izina.
17 For now is the time when judgment is commencing at the house of God; and if it begin with us, what will be the end of those who obey not the gospel of God?
Kakuli chi nako ye nkatulo ku tanga cha ve nzubo ya Ireza. Cwale chi yi tanga chetu, mu kuve vule kuzwa kwavo vasa kuteki ivangeri ya Ireza?
18 And if the righteous man is hardly saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
Ni kuti haiba “muntu yo jolola ka hazwe cha ku kakatiza, mu kuve vuti kuva nyefula ni ku va eza livi?
19 Wherefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to him in well-doing as to the faithful Creator.
Cwale mu siye avo va sukuluka ke vaka lya ku saka kwe Ireza va vike inhuho zabo mu vusepahali vwa muvumbi mu ku tenda sinte.
