< 1 Peter 1 >

1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Diaspora in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
ܦܛܪܘܤ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܓܒܝܐ ܘܬܘܬܒܐ ܕܙܪܝܥܝܢ ܒܦܢܛܘܤ ܘܒܓܠܛܝܐ ܘܒܩܦܘܕܩܝܐ ܘܒܐܤܝܐ ܘܒܒܝܬܘܢܝܐ
2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܬܓܒܝܘ ܒܡܩܕܡܘܬ ܝܕܥܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܒܩܕܝܫܘܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܡܫܡܥܬܐ ܘܠܪܤܤ ܕܡܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܘܫܠܡܐ ܢܤܓܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
ܡܒܪܟ ܗܘ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܚܢܢܗ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܘܠܕܢ ܡܢ ܕܪܝܫ ܒܩܝܡܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܤܒܪܐ ܕܚܝܐ
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that does not fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
ܘܠܝܪܬܘܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܚܒܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܛܢܦܐ ܘܠܐ ܚܡܝܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܛܝܒܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܫܡܝܐ
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
ܟܕ ܢܛܝܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܠܚܝܐ ܕܡܛܝܒܝܢ ܕܢܬܓܠܘܢ ܠܙܒܢܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ
6 Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials,
ܕܒܗܘܢ ܬܚܕܘܢ ܠܥܠܡ ܐܦܢ ܒܗܢܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܡܬܬܥܝܩܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܢܤܝܘܢܐ ܡܫܚܠܦܐ ܕܥܕܝܢ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ
7 that the genuineness of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed—
ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܒܘܚܪܢܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܢܬܚܙܐ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܡܢ ܕܗܒܐ ܤܢܝܢܐ ܕܐܬܒܩܝ ܒܢܘܪܐ ܠܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܘܠܐܝܩܪܐ ܘܠܩܘܠܤܐ ܒܓܠܝܢܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
8 whom not having seen you love; in whom, though now you do not see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy inexpressible and full of glory—
ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܚܙܝܬܘܢܝܗܝ ܘܡܚܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܗ ܘܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܗ ܪܘܙܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܚܕܘܬܐ ܡܫܒܚܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܡܠܠܐ
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
ܕܬܩܒܠܘܢ ܦܘܪܥܢܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܕܢܦܫܬܟܘܢ
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
ܗܢܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܕܥܩܒܘ ܗܘܘ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܢܒܝܐ ܟܕ ܐܬܢܒܝܘ ܥܠ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܥܬܝܕܐ ܗܘܬ ܕܬܬܝܗܒ ܠܟܘܢ
11 searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ, which was in them, pointed to, when he predicted the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that would follow them.
ܘܒܨܘ ܕܒܐܝܢܐ ܙܒܢܐ ܡܚܘܝܐ ܘܡܤܗܕܐ ܪܘܚܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܥܡܪܐ ܒܗܘܢ ܕܥܬܝܕܝܢ ܚܫܘܗܝ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܬܫܒܘܚܬܗ ܕܡܢ ܒܬܪܟܢ
12 To them it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you, they ministered these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
ܘܐܬܓܠܝ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܠ ܕܒܨܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܘ ܠܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܠܐ ܠܢ ܕܝܠܢ ܡܬܢܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܫܐ ܐܬܓܠܝ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܝܕ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܤܒܪܢܟܘܢ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܕܐܫܬܕܪ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܒܗܝܢ ܒܗܠܝܢ ܡܬܪܓܪܓܝܢ ܐܦ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܢܕܝܩܘܢ
13 Therefore, prepare your minds for action, be sober and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܚܙܘܩܘ ܚܨܐ ܕܬܪܥܝܬܟܘܢ ܘܐܬܬܥܝܪܘ ܓܡܝܪܐܝܬ ܘܤܒܪܘ ܥܠ ܚܕܘܬܐ ܕܐܬܝܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܓܠܝܢܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
14 As obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires as in your ignorance,
ܐܝܟ ܒܢܝܐ ܡܫܬܡܥܢܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܬܘܬܦܘܢ ܬܘܒ ܠܪܓܝܓܬܟܘܢ ܩܕܡܝܬܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܪܓܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܒܝܕܥܬܐ
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;
ܐܠܐ ܗܘܘ ܩܕܝܫܝܢ ܒܟܠܗܘܢ ܗܘܦܟܝܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܩܕܝܫ ܗܘ ܡܢ ܕܩܪܟܘܢ
16 because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."
ܡܛܠ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܕܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܩܕܝܫ ܐܢܐ
17 If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man's work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear:
ܘܐܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܒܐ ܩܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܘ ܕܠܝܬ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܡܤܒ ܒܐܦܐ ܘܕܐܢ ܠܟܠܢܫ ܐܝܟ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܒܕܚܠܬܐ ܐܬܕܒܪܘ ܒܙܒܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܬܘܬܒܘܬܟܘܢ
18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
ܟܕ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܒܟܤܦܐ ܕܒܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܕܗܒܐ ܐܬܦܪܩܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܥܒܕܝܟܘܢ ܤܪܝܩܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܩܒܠܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܒܗܝܟܘܢ
19 but with precious blood, as of an unblemished and spotless lamb, namely Christ.
ܐܠܐ ܒܕܡܐ ܝܩܝܪܐ ܕܐܡܪܐ ܕܡܘܡܐ ܘܛܘܠܫܐ ܠܝܬ ܒܗ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܫܝܚܐ
20 He was chosen in advance before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake,
ܗܘ ܕܡܩܕܡ ܗܘܐ ܦܪܝܫ ܠܗܕܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܬܪܡܝܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܘܐܬܓܠܝ ܒܐܚܪܝܬܗܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܡܛܠܬܟܘܢ
21 who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܒܐܝܕܗ ܗܝܡܢܬܘܢ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܩܝܡܗ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܤܒܪܟܘܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܐܠܗܐ
22 Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from a pure heart fervently:
ܟܕ ܢܗܘܝܢ ܩܕܝܫܢ ܢܦܫܬܟܘܢ ܒܡܫܬܡܥܢܘܬܗ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܘܢܗܘܝܢ ܡܠܝܢ ܚܘܒܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܤܒ ܒܐܦܐ ܕܡܢ ܠܒܐ ܕܟܝܐ ܘܓܡܝܪܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܚܒܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and abiding word of God. (aiōn g165)
ܐܝܟ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܡܢ ܕܪܝܫ ܐܬܝܠܕܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܢ ܙܪܥܐ ܕܒܠܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܠܐ ܒܠܐ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܚܝܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܩܝܡܐ ܠܥܠܡ (aiōn g165)
24 For, "All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠ ܒܤܪ ܥܡܝܪܐ ܘܟܠܗ ܝܐܝܘܬܗ ܐܝܟ ܥܘܦܝܐ ܕܚܩܠܐ ܝܒܫ ܥܡܝܪܐ ܘܚܡܐ ܥܘܦܝܐ
25 but the word of the Lord endures forever." This is the word preached as Good News to you. (aiōn g165)
ܘܡܠܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܢ ܩܝܡܐ ܠܥܠܡܝܢ ܘܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܤܬܒܪܬܘܢ (aiōn g165)
