< 1 Peter 5 >
1 Elders who [are] among you, I exhort [you], [as] a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and a partaker of the glory about to be revealed,
Mụ onwe m, onye bụ okenye na onyeama banyere ahụhụ Kraịst, bụrụkwa onye ga-eso keta oke nʼebube ya nke a gaje ikpughe, a na m arịọ ndị okenye nʼetiti unu arịrịọ a,
2 feed the flock of God that [is] among you, overseeing not by compulsion, but willingly, neither for shameful gain, but eagerly,
na-azụnụ igwe atụrụ ahụ Chineke nyefere unu nʼaka. Ka unu na-elekọta ha, ọ bụghị nʼihi na unu agaghị ime otu a, kama ọ bụ ihe sitere nʼọchịchọ obi unu, dị ka Chineke chọrọ ka unu mee. Ọ bụkwaghị nʼihi ego unu ga-enweta, kama ọ bụ ịnụ ọkụ unu nʼije ozi.
3 neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but becoming patterns for the flock,
Unu abụla ọkaaka nʼebe ndị e nyefere unu nʼaka nọ. Kama bụrụnụ ihe ịma atụ nye igwe atụrụ ahụ.
4 and the Chief Shepherd having appeared, you will receive the unfading garland of glory.
Ma mgbe Onyeisi ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ ahụ ga-abịa unu ga-anata okpueze ebube nke na-agaghị agbanwe agbanwe.
5 In like manner, you young [ones], be subject to elders, and all subjecting yourselves to one another; clothe yourselves with humble-mindedness, because God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble;
Nʼotu aka ahụ, unu ụmụ okorobịa, doonụ onwe unu nʼokpuru ndị bụ okenye. Unu niile werenụ obi umeala na-ejeritara onwe unu ozi, nʼihi na, “Chineke na-eguzo imegide ndị na-ebuli onwe ha elu, ma ọ na-enye ndị dị umeala nʼobi amara.”
6 be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that He may exalt you in good time,
Ya mere, wedanụ onwe unu nʼokpuru aka dị ike nke Chineke, ka o bulie unu elu nʼoge ya.
7 having cast all your care on Him, because He cares for you.
Hapụrụnụ ya nsogbu unu na nchegbu unu, nʼihi na ihe banyere unu na-emetụ ya nʼobi.
8 Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the Devil walks around as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may swallow up,
Nọọnụ na njikere, na-echekwanụ nche nʼihi na onye iro unu bụ ekwensu ji oke ịgbọ ụja na-awagharị dịka ọdụm, na-achọ onye ọ ga-ala nʼiyi.
9 whom you must resist, steadfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings of your brotherhood to be accomplished in the world.
Guzosienụ ike nʼokwukwe unu. Unu ekwela ka o merie unu, kama tụkwasịnụ Onyenwe anyị obi. Chetanụ na e nwere ọtụtụ ndị kwere ekwe dị ka unu ndị nọkwa nʼụdị ahụhụ a unu na-ahụ nʼụwa niile.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to His perpetual glory in Christ Jesus, having suffered a little, Himself make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle [you]; (aiōnios )
Chineke onye nwe amara niile, onye kpọbatara unu na ebube ebighị ebi ya nʼime Kraịst, mgbe unu hụrụ ahụhụ ndị a nwa oge, ya onwe ya ga-eweghachi unu nʼọnọdụ unu, mee ka unu dị nnọọ ike, ndị guzo chịm ma kwesikwa ntụkwasị obi. (aiōnios )
11 to Him [is] the glory and the power through the ages and the ages! Amen. (aiōn )
Ọ bụ ya nwe ike niile ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Amen. (aiōn )
12 Through Silvanus, the faithful brother as I reckon, I wrote through few [words] to you, exhorting and testifying this to be the true grace of God in which you have stood.
Ọ bụ site nʼinyeaka Saịlas onye m hụtara dị ka nwanna kwesiri ntụkwasị obi ka m ji deere unu mkpụrụ okwu ole na ole ndị a nke m ji agbaa unu ume na-ekwupụtakwa na nke a bụ eziokwu dị nʼamara Chineke. Guzosienụ ike nʼime ya.
13 She in Babylon chosen with you greets you, and my son Marcus.
Nwanyị ahụ nọ na Babilọn, nke a họpụtara unu na ya, na-ekele unu. Mak, ezi nwa m nwoke na-ekelekwa unu.
14 Greet one another in a kiss of love. Peace to you all who [are] in Christ Jesus! Amen.
Jirinụ isurita ọnụ ịhụnanya kelerịta onwe unu. Ka udo dịnyere unu niile nọ nʼime Kraịst.
