1 Peter 4
1 Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same mind, because he who suffered in the flesh has finished [with] sin,
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 no longer in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;
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 has sufficiently passed to have carried out the will of the nations, having walked in licentiousness, lusts, excesses of wines, revelings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful 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 in which they think it strange—your not running with them to the same excess of wastefulness, slandering [you]—
Va tere vukavo kuti hamu sa vechilili navo mou muunda wa ku lyangana, mi vawamba vuvi ku amana nenwe.
5 who will give an account to Him who is ready to judge [the] living and [the] dead,
Kava hewe mulandu ko zo yo litukiseze atula va hala ni va fwile.
6 for this also was good news proclaimed to dead men, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, but may live according to God in the Spirit.
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 Now the end of all things has come near; be sober-minded, then, and be sober in [your] prayers.
Ma maninizo ezi zintu chi a kezite hafuhi. Cwale muve mu talifa mu muhupulo, muve ni munahanelo ujolola che vaka lye ntapero.
8 Before all things, having earnest love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins;
He wulu lyazintu zonse, muve ni rato ikando ku zumwi ni zumwi, mukuti irato li yala zingi zivi.
9 [be] hospitable to one another, without murmuring;
Mu litambule vamwi ku vamwi cha kusa tongoka.
10 each [one], according as he received a gift, ministering it to one another, 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 anyone speaks, [speak] as oracles of God; if anyone ministers, [minister] as of the strength which God supplies, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power through the ages of the ages. 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, do not think it strange at the fiery suffering among you that is coming to try you, as if a strange thing were happening 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 according as you have fellowship with the sufferings of the Christ, rejoice, that you may also rejoice in the revelation of His glory—exulting;
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 you are reproached in the Name of Christ—[you are] blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you; in regard, indeed, to them, is evil spoken of Him, and in regard to you, He is glorified;
Haiva mu tukolwa che zina lya Keresite, mu fuyoletwe, kakuli Luhuho lwe nkanya ni Luhuho lwa Ireza lwina henu.
15 for let none of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or as a meddler into other men’s matters;
Kono ku vuleke kwenu nanga yenke yete a sukululwe sina mwihayi, musa, mu tendi wa civi, kamba musinyi.
16 and if as a Christian, do not let him be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this respect;
Kono haiva zumwi u sukululwa cha kuva mulumeri, kanji a swabi; kono, mumu leke a lumbe Ireza chelyo izina.
17 because it is the time of the judgment to have begun from the house of God, and if first from us, what [is] the end of those disobedient to the good news 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 scarcely saved, where will the ungodly and sinner appear?
Ni kuti haiba “muntu yo jolola ka hazwe cha ku kakatiza, mu kuve vuti kuva nyefula ni ku va eza livi?
19 So that those also suffering according to the will of God, as to a steadfast Creator, let them commit their own souls in doing good.
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.
