1 Peter 1
1 Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect sojourners of the dispersion, of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia--
Pita, mutumwa wa Jesu Kkilisito, kubenzu bamwaikilide kumanyika, ibasalidwe, koonse ku Pontasi, Galantiya, Kkapadosiya, Eziya, aku Bbitiniya.
2 according to the predetermination of God the Father, by a sanctification of the Spirit, in order to obedience, and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Favor and peace be multiplied to you.
Eechi chilimumabambe amumakanze a Leza Taata, mukwinda mumubeleko usalazigwa a Muuya, kuti mumutelele alubo mukwinda mukusansailwa bulowa bwa Jesu Kkilisito. Iluzyalo ngalube alindinywe, alubo lumuuno ngaluyungizizigwe kulindinywe.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has regenerated us to a lively hope, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Akube kuti Leza wisi wa-Mwami Jesu Kkilisito alumbayizigwe! Muluzyalo lwakwe lupati, wakatupa kuzyalwa kupya iswebo bulabulangizi bwabuponi kwinda mububuke bwa Jesu Kkilisito kuzwa kubafu.
4 to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and unfading, preserved in the heavens for us;
Eechi nchalukkono lutakabule kumana pe, lutakabule akabbata, alubo talukonzyi pe kuyokulumpana abunini. Lulibambidwe kujulu kalulinda nduwe.
5 who, by the power of God, are guarded through faith, to the salvation prepared to be revealed in the last time.
Iwebo ulikwabilidwe munguzu zya-Leza kwinda mukusyoma kwalufutuko olo lwimvwilidi kuyoyubununwa mukugola kwechindi.
6 On account of this, be exceeding glad, though now, for a little while, (since it is needful, ) you are made sorry by divers trials;
Ulikondedwe atala acheechi, nekuba kwalino kulelede kuti mube akuusa kukusunkwa kwiingi.
7 that the trying of your faith, (much more precious than of gold, which perishes, though proved by fire, ) may be found to praise, and honor, and glory, at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
Echi chilabawo kuti kukabonwe lusyomo lwanu, olu lwindide ngolida mbotu ikulumpala, nekuba yakawumpwa mumulilo. Echi chilachitika kuti lusyomo lwanu lukajanike kalulempindu ilentembawuzyo, abulemu, achilemeko ayoyubununwa Jesu Kkilisito.
8 whom, not having seen, you love; on whom, not now looking, but believing, you greatly rejoice, with joy unspeakable and full of glory--
Tamuna kumubona pe, pesi mulamuyanda. Tamumuboni pe kwalino, pesi mulasyoma mulinguwe akukondwa alukondo lutambiiki luzwide bulemu.
9 receiving the consummation of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
Kwalino muyolitambwida lwenu mpindu yalusyomo lwanu, lufutuko lwa muuya yenu.
10 Concerning which salvation, the prophets inquired accurately, and searched diligently, who have prophesied concerning the favor bestowed on you;
Ataala alufutuko olu, basinsiimi abo bakasinsima atala aluzyalo olo lwakali kuyanda kuza alindinywe, bakayandula chabusungu kabayanda kuziba,
11 searching diligently of what things, and what kind of time, the Spirit of Christ, who was in them, did signify, when he testified before the sufferings of Christ, and the glories following these--
Kabayandula kuziba kuti muntunzi nakuti chinoli chiindiinzi echo muuya wa Kkilisito nchiwakalikwamba mulimbabo awo mpakabambilide kuti katana kwabwa kuyoba machise a Kkilisito abulemu buyotobela.
12 to whom it was revealed, that, not for themselves, but for us, they ministered these things; which have now been reported to you, by them who have declared the glad tidings to you, with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven: into which things, angels earnestly desire to look attentively.
Chakayubununwa kulimbabo kuti tebakali kulibelekela lwabo beni pe, pesi anywebo, awo mpobakali kwamba atala azintu ezyo zyakambwa kulindinywe ababo bamukambawukila mulumbe wamakani mabotu kulindinywe kwinda ku-Muuya Uusalala wakatumwa kuzwa kujulu-kachili chintu baangelo nchibakali kulakamizya {kupeekezya}.
13 Wherefore, having the loins of your mind girded, being vigilant, constantly hope for the gift to be brought to you, at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Nkikaako amulyaange muzibuno zyanu zyakuyeeya kwenu. Amube babotu. Amubike bulangizi bwenu chakumaninina kuluzyalo olo luyoyetwa kulindinywe ayoyubununwa Jesu Kkilisito.
14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts, in your ignorance;
Mbuli bana bateelela, mutakabwedululi kukuyandisya kwenu nkumwakali kuponena chiindi nimwakachili mukutaziba.
15 but as he who has called you is holy, be you also holy;
Nkambo kakuti oyo iwakamwiita ulasalala, inywebo, kulelede, kuti musalale mubube bwanu boonse.
16 for it is written, "Be you holy, because I am holy."
Nkambo mbuli mbukulembedwe, “Amusalale, nkambo Ambebo ndasalala.”
17 And seeing you call on the Father, who, without respect of persons, judges according to every man's work--pass the time of your sojourning here, in fear;
Na kamumwita kuti “Taata” oyo ubeteka chakutalanga chiimo chamuntu alubo umwi mbuli milimo yakwe, amwende lwendo olu muchindi chanu chakumuyowa.
18 knowing that, not with corruptible things, as silver and gold, you were redeemed from your foolish behavior, delivered to you by your fathers;
Mulizi kuti techakachitwa ansiliva ikulumpala na ingolida ezyo nzimwakali kununulwa ezyo kukwenda kwenu kwabuyo nkomwakiiya kuliba mawuso.
19 but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish, and without spot;
Anukuti, nywebo mwakanunulwa abulowa bubotu bwa Kkilisito, oyo wakali m buli mwana wambelele utakwe kampenda nikaba kabbata.
20 predetermined, indeed, before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for you;
Kkilisito wakalizibinkenwe kakutana kuba kulengwa kwenyika, pesi kwalino wakazoyubununwa kulindinywe muzyiindi zyamamanino.
21 who through him, believe in God, who raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God.
Kwinda mulinguwe muzumine kuli Leza, oyo wakamubusya kuzwa kubafu akumupa bulemu, kuli lusyomo lwanu abulangizi bwenu bube kuli Leza.
22 Wherefore, having purified your souls by obeying the truth, through the Spirit, to unfeigned brotherly love, love one another, from a pure heart, fervently:
Mwakachita myuya kuti ibote mukwinda mukutelela kukasimpe. Echi chakaba obo kukumwetela luyando lwababunyina; amukayandane umwi awumwi kazizwa mumoyo. Amwi malembe mapati abensiku bachiGiliki abalika obu, Mwakasalazya myoyo yanu kukutelela kukasimpe kwinda kumuya.
23 having been regenerated, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of the living God, which remains. (aiōn g165)
Mwakazyalwa bupya, kutali kuzwa kumbuto ikulumpala pe, pesi kuzwa kumbuto itakulumpali, kwinda mujwi lya-Leza litakasyale kalipona (aiōn g165)
24 "For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower of it falls down; but the word of the Lord remains forever."
Nkambo kakuti, “Nyama yoonse ilimbuli bwizu, abulemu bwayo bonse bulimbuli malubaluba abwizu bwamusokwe. Ibwizu ngabwayuma, awalo malubaluba nganyana awidaansi,
