< 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,
Piela, mvuala wu Yesu Klisto, mfidisidi nkanda kuidi bobo Nzambi kasobula ayi banzingila mu zitsi banzenza, batembakana mu bizunga bi Ponti, Ngalatiya, Kapadosi, Azi ayi Bitini.
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.
Nzambi Tata wulusobula tona thama boso bubela lukanu luandi lolo kakubika ayi beno lukitulu batu banlongo mu lusadusu lu Pheve andi mu diambu di tumukina Yesu Klisto ayi vedoso mu menga mandi. Bika nlemvo ayi ndembama biba yeno mu buwombo.
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,
Bika Nzambi kakemboso, niandi Dise di Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto wutuvana luzingu lumona mu kiadi kiandi bu kafulukisa Yesu Klisto mu bafua, mu kutuvana diana diodi di moyo.
4 to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that does not fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
Bila wutukubikila kiuka kioki kilendi fua ko; kilendi biva ko; kilendi vembudila ko, kioki kilundulu ku diyilu mu diambu dieno.
5 who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Beno lunkebolongo mu lulendo lu Nzambi mu nzila yi minu mu diambu di phulusu yoyi yikubimini mu monokoso mu thangu yi tsuka.
6 Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials,
Diawu diodi dilembo kulumonisa khini, ka diambu ko buabu lufueti monoso diaka kiadi, mu ndambu thangu mu diambu di zithotolo zi phila mu phila
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—
muingi minu kieno bu kimeni toto bumboti kikituka diambu di luzitu, di nkembo ayi di nzitusu mu lumbu kiela kuiza Yesu Klisto, bila minu kienokilutidi luvalu ayi nolo yoyo yeti biva ayi yoyi beti tota ku mbazu.
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—
Yesu, mutu wowo kalumueni ko vayi lueti kunzola. Ka diambu ko beno lumueni ko vayi lueti kunwilukila ayi diawu luididi mu khini yi nkemboayi yika yilendi sudukusu ko.
9 receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
Bila lutambulanga tsundu yi minu kieno: phulusu yi miela mieno.
10 Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
Mimbikudi, miomi mibikula nlemvo wowo balukubikila miyuvula ayi mifiongunina tsundu yi phulusu beni.
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.
Mizola zaba thangu mbi voti buevi buela vangimina mambu momo matuba Pheve yi Klisto, Pheve yoyi yiba mu bawu; yisamuna tona thama ziphasi ziela mona Klisto ayi nkembo wowo wela landakana.
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.
Baba monisa ti mambu beni momo baba kamba, masia ba mu diambudiawu ko vayi mu diambu dieno. Buabu balukamba mambu beni kuidi batubobo balusamunina Nsamu Wumboti mu nzila yi lulendo lu Pheve Yinlongo, yoyo yiba ku Diyilu. Ayi zimbasi zimmonanga phuila mu mona mambu beni.
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.
Diawu, bika luba bakubama mu diela dieno mu diambu di sala ayi lubika ba phulu dia ayi nua; lutula diana dieno mu nlemvo wowo luelatambula mu lumbu Yesu Klisto kela monika.
14 As obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires as in your ignorance,
Banga bana badi bulemvo, lubika landakana zinzinunu ziozi ziba yenomu thama bu luba batu bakambulu diela.
15 but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;
Vayi bu didi ti mutu wowo wulutela widi wunlongo, buna bika beno mamveno luba banlongo mu khadulu eno;
16 because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."
bila masonama ti: Bika luba banlongo bila minu veka ndidi wunlongo!
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:
Enati mu lusambulu lueno, lueti tedila Tata mutu wowo wetisambila batu boso buididi mavanga mawu mu kambu ntalu zizi mu batu; buna bika bu lukidi va nza, luzingila mu lukinzu va ntualꞌandi.
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,
Beno luzebi ti lukulu mu nzingulu eno yi buvungisi yoyi bakulu beno balulongisa. Khudulu eno yisia vangimina mu bima bimbolanga ko, mu palata ko voti mu nolo ko
19 but with precious blood, as of an unblemished and spotless lamb, namely Christ.
vayi mu menga ma thalu, ma Klisto widi banga muana dimemi wukambulu kieta ayi wukambulu kadi ditona.
20 He was chosen in advance before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake,
Niandi wusobolo nza yivangama ntoto wuvangama ayi wumonika mu diambu dieno mu zithangu ziazi zi tsuka.
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.
Mu nzilꞌandi lueka wilukila Nzambi yoyi yimfulukisa mu bafuaayi yimvana nkembo mu diambu di minu kieno ayi diana dieno bibanga kaka mu Nzambi.
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:
Lumana vedoso bu lutumukina mambu ma kiedika mu diambu di luzola mu bukiedika bakhomba zieno. Diawu luzolasananga beno na beno mu ntimawu vedila
23 having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and abiding word of God. (aiōn )
beno lubutuka mbutuka yimona, bika sia ti mu lulendo lu nkuna weti fuanga vayi mu lulendo lu nkuna wowo ka wufuanga ko; mu mambu ma moyo ma Nzambi, momo madi mu zithangu zioso. (aiōn )
24 For, "All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
Bila disonama ti: Woso mutu widi banga kiti ki nsitu Nkembo woso wu batu widi banga teka ki zitsola Kiti kieti yuma ayi teka kiandi kieti bua.
25 but the word of the Lord endures forever." This is the word preached as Good News to you. (aiōn )
Vayi mambu ma Pfumu manzingilanga mu zithangu zioso. Muaki mambu beni wawu Nsamu Wumboti wowo balulonga. (aiōn )
