1 Peter 3
1 In like manner, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, that even if any obey not the word, they may without the word be won by the behavior of the wives,
Enako, žene, pokorne bodite svojim možem, da, če tudi kateri niso poslušni besedi, pridobé se po vedenji žen brez besede,
2 when they behold your chaste behavior coupled with fear.
Ko so videli v strahu sveto vedenje vaše.
3 Whose adorning, let it not be the out yard adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing golden ornaments, or of putting on apparel;
Dika vaša ne bodi vnanja, spletanje lâs, in navešanje zlatnine, ali oblačenje kril;
4 but the hidden man of the heart, in that which is imperishable, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
Nego skriti človek srca, v neminljivosti krotkega in mirnega duha, kateri je drag pred Bogom.
5 For in this manner in the old time the holy women also, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands;
Tako namreč so se nekdaj dičile tudi svete žene, katere so upale v Boga, podložne svojim možem;
6 as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose daughters ye have become, if ye do well, and fear no alarm.
Kakor je bila Sara poslušna Abrahamu, imenujoč ga gospoda svojega. Katere otroci ste postale vé, če delate dobro in se ne bojite nobenega strahú.
7 Dwell likewise, O husband, with thy wife according to knowledge, as with the weaker vessel, giving her honor as being heir with thee of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
Možjé, enako, živite z njimi po spoznanji, kakor slabšemu orodju ženskemu čast deleč, kakor tudi sodediči milosti življenja, da se ne ovirajo molitve vaše.
8 Finally, be, all of one mind, have fellow feeling, love as brethren, be compassionate, be humble;
Slednjič pa, vsi bodite enodušni, sočutni, bratoljubni, milosrčni, blagovoljni,
9 not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing; but, on the contrary, blessing the evil-doer; because for this end ye were called, that ye might inherit blessing.
Ne vračajoč hudega za hudo, ali psovanja za psovanje; a nasprotno "blagoslavljajoč, vedoč, da ste za to poklicani, da podedovate blagoslov.
10 “For he that would love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking guile;
"Kajti kdor hoče življenje ljubiti in videti dobre dni, brzdá naj jezik svoj pred hudim, in ustne svoje, da ne govoré zvijače.
11 let him turn away from evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and pursue it.
Ogiblje se naj hudega, in dela naj dobro; išče naj mirú in hodi za njim.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are toward their supplication; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Ker oči Gospodove so nad pravičnimi in ušesa njegova nad njih molitvami; obličje pa Gospodovo nad njimi, ki delajo hudo."
13 And who is he that shall harm you, if ye are followers of that which is good?
In kdo je, da bi vam kaj hudega storil, če postanete posnemalci dobrega?
14 But if ye even suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye. And be not afraid at their terrors, nor alarmed;
Ali ko bi tudi trpeli za pravico, blagor vam! "Strahú pa njih ne bojte se, in ne begajte se;
15 but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts. And be ready always to give an answer to every one that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, but with meekness and fear;
Gospoda pa Boga posvečujte v srcih svojih." Pripravljeni pa bodite vedno na zagovor vsakemu, kateri zahteva od vas odgovora za upanje v vas, s krotkostjo in strahom;
16 having a good conscience, that, wherein ye are evil spoken of, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conduct in Christ.
In dobro vest imejte, da se v tem, za kar vas obrekujejo kakor hudodelnike, osramoté, kateri obrekujejo vaše lepo vedenje v Kristusu.
17 For it is better, if it be the will of God, that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing.
Kajti bolje, da dobro delajoč, če hoče volja Božja, trpite, nego hudo delajoč;
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous one for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
Ker tudi Kristus je enkrat za grehe trpel, pravični za krivične, da nas pripelje Bogu; usmrten v mesu, oživljen pa v duhu,
19 in which also he went and preached to the spirits in prison,
V katerem je tudi šel in oznanjal duhovom v ječi,
20 who were disobedient in times past, when the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was preparing, wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water;
Kateri so bili nekdaj neposlušni, ko je enkrat potrpežljivost Božja čakala o dnevih Noeta, ko se je napravljala ladija, v katero se je rešilo malo, to je osem duš, po vodi;
21 which in its antitype, baptism, is now saving you, —not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the earnest seeking for a good conscience toward God, —by the resurrection of Jesus Christ;
Čemur podoben tudi zdaj nas rešuje krst (ne mesne nesnage odloga, nego dobre vesti obljuba do Boga), po vstajenji Jezusa Kristusa,
22 who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to him.
Kateri je na desnici Božji, po vnebohodu, in podredjeni so mu angeli in oblasti in moči.
