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,
Noolwekyo mbulirira abakadde abali mu mmwe nze mukadde munnammwe, omujulirwa w’okubonaabona kwa Kristo, era agabanira awamu ekitiibwa ekigenda okubikkulirwa.
2 feed the flock of God that [is] among you, overseeing not by compulsion, but willingly, neither for shameful gain, but eagerly,
Mulundenga ekisibo kya Katonda ekiri mu mmwe, mukiriisenga nga mukirabirira n’okwagala so si na kwemulugunya, nga mukolerera amagoba ag’obukuusa wabula olw’okujjumbira Katonda.
3 neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but becoming patterns for the flock,
Be mukulembera temubakambuwaliranga wabula mubakulemberenga nga mubalaga ekyokulabirako ekirungi.
4 and the Chief Shepherd having appeared, you will receive the unfading garland of glory.
Era Omusumba Omukulu bw’alikomawo, muliweebwa engule ey’ekitiibwa ekitaliggwaawo.
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;
Mmwe abavubuka, mugonderenga abakulu. Muweerezeganenga mwekka na mwekka n’obuwombeefu kubanga “Katonda akyawa ab’amalala naye abawombeefu abawa omukisa.”
6 be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that He may exalt you in good time,
Noolwekyo mwewombeeke wansi w’omukono gwa Katonda ogw’amaanyi, naye alibagulumiza ng’obudde butuuse.
7 having cast all your care on Him, because He cares for you.
Mumutwalirenga byonna bye mweraliikirira kubanga abalumirwa era afaayo ku buli ekibatuukako.
8 Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the Devil walks around as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may swallow up,
Mutunulenga, mwekuume omulabe wammwe Setaani, atambulatambula ng’empologoma enjala gy’eruma egenda ng’ewuluguma ng’enoonya gw’eneerya.
9 whom you must resist, steadfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings of your brotherhood to be accomplished in the world.
Mumwaŋŋange ng’abalumbye, nga mwesiga Mukama, era mujjukire nti ebibonoobono ebiri ng’ebyo bituuka ne ku bakkiriza abalala mu nsi yonna.
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 g166)
Bwe mulibonaabonera akaseera, Katonda waffe atukwatirwa ekisa ng’ayita mu Kristo, alibawa ekitiibwa kye ekitaliggwaawo. Alibakomyawo, alibazzaamu amaanyi, alibawanirira era alibanyweza. (aiōnios g166)
Ekitiibwa n’amaanyi bibeerenga gy’ali emirembe n’emirembe. Amiina. (aiōn g165)
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.
Ebbaluwa eno nzija kugikwasa Sirwano, gwe mmanyi nga waaluganda mwesigwa ddala, agibaleetere. Nsuubira nga mbazizzaamu amaanyi mu bbaluwa eno, era nga mbalaze engeri Katonda gy’agabamu ekisa kye ekingi. Ebyo bye mbategeezezza bibayambe okunywerera mu kwagala kwe.
13 She in Babylon chosen with you greets you, and my son Marcus.
Balonde bannammwe mu kkanisa y’e Babulooni, babalamusizza. Ne mutabani wange Makko naye abalamusizza.
14 Greet one another in a kiss of love. Peace to you all who [are] in Christ Jesus! Amen.
Mulamusagane n’okwagala okw’Ekikristaayo. Emirembe gibeerenga mu mmwe mwenna abali mu Kristo.
