1 Peter 1
1 To the people of God who are living abroad, dispersed throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Roman Asia, and Bithynia,
Untumwa u Peteri wa Yesu Kiristi, abhajenu bhaulugabhanyo, hwa asalulwa abha Ponto yonti, Galatia, Kapadokia, Asia, ni Bithinia,
2 and who were chosen in accordance with the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the consecration of the Spirit, to learn obedience, and to be purified by the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ, from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. May blessing and peace be yours in ever increasing measure.
afumilane mu umanye wa Ngolobhe, u Dada, hwa zehufye nu umpepo umfinjile hwa hwogope hwa Yesu Kilisti hwa hwitilizye idanda lyakwe. Weeneibhe lumwinyu nu tenganu winyu wonjele.
3 Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has, in his great mercy, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Ungulubhi uDada Ugosi witu Yesu Kilisti asa wi yiwaje. Hugosi wi nkumbu yakwe ahatipela apapwe winza hwa udandamazu wi mpyano izya zyushe hwa Yesu Kilisti afume hubhafwe,
4 given us the new life of undying hope, that promises an inheritance, imperishable, stainless, unfading, which has been reserved for you in heaven –
hwi puano lyesagalimaliha sebhubhabhe ni ntavu sebhubhatapushe. Tibhishilevea mwanya nu Nguluvi.
5 for you who, through faith, are being guarded by the power of God, awaiting a salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last days.
Hu ngovu zya Unguluvi tidimwa ashilile mlwitiho ulwilohele wewuliho wigulilwe hunsiku zya humpelela.
6 At the thought of this you are full of exultation, though (if it has been necessary) you have suffered for the moment somewhat from various trials;
Mushanje hwili poshe ihwanziwa huyumvwe insibho hwajelo zyontizila.
7 that the genuineness of your faith – a thing far more precious than gold, which is perishable, yet has to be tested by fire – may win praise and glory and honor at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
Izi huhuje ulwitiho lwinyu lujelwa ulwitiho lwe gosi ashile impiya zyezitaga mumwoto, winjelo zyilwitiho lwetu injelo zifumila huje ulwitiho lubhe nu mpopo uwinza ni nshinshi muzyusyo wa Yesu Kilisiti.
8 Though you have never seen him, yet you love him; though you do not even now see him, yet you believe in him, and exalt with a triumphant happiness too great for words,
Semhunola lakini mungine. Semhunola isalizi lakini mhwitiha hwa mwene aje usungwo wewumemile utumtumu.
9 as you receive the reward of your faith in the salvation of your souls!
Eshi muposhela mwinimwi imbombo zyilwitiho lwinyu, ulokole uwa mhati.
10 It was this salvation that the prophets, who spoke long ago of the blessing intended for you, sought, and strove to comprehend;
Akuwa bhahanzile abhuzye hai aje ulokole ubhu uwiwene handi winyu.
11 as they strove to discern what that time could be, to which the Spirit of Christ within them was pointing, when foretelling the sufferings that Christ would have to endure, and the glories that would follow.
Bhahanzile amanye ajeulokole bhuliwe handi winzile. Nantele bhanzile amanye huje ahabhalilizyo bhuli umpepo Kilisti yali mhati yabho ayanjile henu nabho ili lyafumie lula lwe abhabhuzyaga nzila aje amayimba ga Kilisti nu tuntumwe wunginza.
12 And it was revealed to them that it was not for themselves, but for you, that they were acting as Ministers of the truths which have now been told to you, by those who, with the help of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, have brought you the good news – truths into which even angels long to look.
Yakunkwilwe hwa kuwa aje bhabhombelaga imbombo izi natwi hwabhibho twali namwi injango zyi imbombi izi ashilile bhala bhebhahwanza ni zwi humwinya hwidala ilya mpepo umfinjile ya tumwilwe afume humwanya imbombo zye antumi bhayigana agubulilwe hwakwe.
13 Therefore concentrate your minds, with the strictest self-control, and fix your hopes on the blessing that is coming for you at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
Ishi mpinye unsana winjele zyinyu mubhemyee munsibho zyinyu mubhe ni khone ugolosu mu wene wewahayiyinza humwinyulwe ayigubulwa uYesu Kilisti.
14 Be like obedient children; do not let your lives be shaped by the passions which once swayed you in the days of your ignorance,
Ndeshe abhana bhebhahwiha msahapinywe mwimimwi nu pafu we mwalondole lula le mwali se mwali semwaminye.
15 but in your whole life show yourselves to be holy, after the pattern of the Holy One from whom you received your call.
Lelo ndeshe shabhakwizizye shahali ngolosu namwi mubhe bhagolosu injendo zyinyu.
16 For scripture says – ‘You will be holy, because I am holy.’
Ishi lisimbilwe aje mubhe bhagolosu hunongwa yani indi ngolosu.
17 And since you call on him as ‘Father,’ who judges everyone impartially by what he has done, let respectful awe be the spirit of your lives during the time of your stay on earth.
Nke mwankwizya “uDaada” yalonga hwi lyoli alingane ni mbombo zya muntu wowonti jendaga na masala ushulo na huyisye.
18 For you know that it was not by perishable things, such as silver and gold, that you were ransomed from the aimless way of living which was handed down to you from your ancestors,
Mumunye aje saga yali huhela - ivintu vyevinanjiha vyebinanjiha vye mulokoshe afume hu njendo zyinyu izyilema zyemwahamanyie afume hwaso bhinyu.
19 but by precious blood, as it were of a lamb, unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ.
Lelo mlokoshe huidanda lyinshishi ya Kilisiti ndeshe lyingole inyiza yesili namadenaje.
20 Destined for this before the beginning of the world, he has been revealed in these last days for your sakes,
Lelo uYesu ahali afume huwando wi insi lelo insiku izi izyahumpelela agubulilwe humwinyu.
21 who, through him, are faithful to God who raised him from the dead and gave him honor, so that your faith and hope are now in God.
Mumwitishe Ungulubhi ashilile nuva mwene, yu Ngulubhi anzyusizye afume hubhafwe ye ahampiye utuntumu aje ulitiho lwitu lubhe dandamazu hwa Nguluvhi.
22 Now that, by your obedience to the truth, you have purified your lives, so that there is growing up among you a genuine affection, love one another earnestly with all your hearts;
Mubhombile mmyoyo ginyu abhe mazelu ahwitishile ilyoli hwa huje ulugano lwa holo nu golosu muganane hani afume mmoyo.
23 since your new life has come, not from perishable, but imperishable, seed, through the message of the Everliving God. (aiōn g165)
Mupapilwe ulwa bhili siga humbeyu yinanjicha imbeya yasihanjiha ashilile huwumi wizwi lya Nguluvhi lyelisagiye. (aiōn g165)
24 For – ‘All earthly life is but as grass, and all its splendor as the flower of grass. The grass fades, its flower falls,
Huje amabili gonti galije masole nu tuntumu wakwe wonti ndeshe iua lyitundu itundu lyesalihwuma nagwe.
