1 Peter 5
1 I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Nikabhasili bhaseya bhabhaj'hele miongoni mwinu, nene, j'hanij'hele nsaya njabhi na shahidi ghwa malombosi gha Kristu, na ambaj'he vilevile ni mshirika mu bhutukufu bhwabhwibetakudhihirika.
2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily, as God wants; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
Henu nikabhapela muoyo muenga bhasaya, mulichungai likundi lya k'yara lyalij'hele miongoni mwinu. Mulilangai, sio kwandabha mwilondeka, lakini kwa ndabha mwilonda aghu, kul'engana ni k'yara. Mulilangai, sio kwa kugana hela sya soni, lakini kwa kugana.
3 neither as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
Msibhombi mabwana juu j'ha bhanu bhabhaj'hele pasi j'ha bhuangalizi bhwinu, lakini mujhiaghe mfuano mu likundi.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.
Pale mchungaji m'mbaha paibetakudhihirisibhwa, m'beta kujhipokela litaji lya bhutukufu j'hajhibeli kujhesya bhusamani bhwake.
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility, towards one another; for God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
Vilevile, muenga bhasongolo bhadebe, mkitengulilaghe kwa bhabhaha bhinu. Muenga mwe bhoha, uvaeni bhutengulisi ni kuhudumilana j'homu kwa j'homu, kwani k'yara akabhapinga bhenye kiburi, lakini ikabhapela neema bhatengulisi.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time;
Kwa hyo mkitengulidagha pasi pa mabhokho gha k'yara j'haaj'hele hodari ili abha j'hinulaghe kwa bhwakati bhwake.
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
Mubhekaghe fadhaa syinu panani pake, kwandabha akabhajali.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Muj'hiaghe ni busara, muj'hiaghe bhaangalifu. J'hola adui j'hinu ibilisi kama limba j'haiunguruma inyatila, pailonda munu ghwa kundamra.
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
Muj'hemayi kinyume kyake. Muj'hiaghe ni ngofu mu imani j'hinu. Mkamanyiayi kuj'ha bhalongobhinu bhajele kumbinguni bhip'hetela malombosi kama aghu.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen and establish you. (aiōnios g166)
Baada j'ha kul'ombosi bhwa kwa muda lukhombi, k'yara ghwa neema j'haankutili mu bhutukufu bhwa milele mugati mwa Kristu, ibetakubhakamilisya, ibetakubhakangamisya ni kubhapela ngofu. (aiōnios g166)
Enzi j'hij'hiaghe kwa muene milele na milele. Amina. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it.
Nikan'thamini Silwano kama ndongobhangu mwaminifu, na nibhalenibili muenga kwa kifupi kup'hetela kwa muene. Nikabhapela muoyo nanishuhudila kuj'ha kyanikilembili ni neema jha bhukweli j'ha k'yara. Mujhemaghe mugati mwake.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you; and so does Mark, my son.
Bhaamini bhabhajhele Babeli, bhabhasilibhu pamonga namu, bhakabhasalimu, ni Marko mwanabhangu, akabhasalimu.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to you all who are in Christ.
Muponesianaghe kila mmonga kwa busu lya luganu. Ni amani ijhelayi kwa muenga mwamujhele mugati mwa Kristu.
