1 Peter 4
1 Therefore, because Christ suffered physically, you also must think the way that he did [when he was willing to suffer], because those who suffer [because of belonging to Jesus] have stopped sinning [the way they used to sin].
Busa, tungod kay si Cristo nag-antos diha sa unod, sul-obi ang inyong kaugalingon sa samang katuyoan. Kay si bisan kinsa ang nag-antos diha sa unod miundang na gikan sa sala.
2 As a result, during their remaining time here on earth, they do not do the things that sinful people desire to do, but instead they do the things that God wants them to do.
Ingon nga resulta, isip tawo, alang sa nahibilin nga panahon nga siya anaa sa unod, dili na magpuyo alang sa tawhanong tinguha, apan alang sa kabubut-on sa Dios.
3 [I say that to you] because [SAR] you have already spent too much of your time [here on earth] doing what the people who do not know God like to do. In the past you committed all kinds of sexually immoral acts [DOU], you got drunk and then participated in (orgies/wild parties) and carousing/revelry, and you [worshipped] idols, which is very displeasing to God.
Kay igo na ang panahon nga milabay aron buhaton kung unsa ang buot buhaton sa mga Gentil—kalaw-ayan, kaulag, paghuboghubog, pagsabasaba, ug paghudyaka sa kombira, ug malaw-ay nga mga buhat sa pagsimba ug diosdios.
4 [Because you used to do those things], [your friends] are surprised that you do not join them any more when they participate in that kind of wild behavior [that] ([is rushing to/will quickly]) [destroy them like] [MET] a flood. As a result, they say evil things about you.
Naghunahuna sila nga kini talagsaon nga kamo wala nakig-uban kanila niining baha sa pagpatuyang, busa nagsulti sila ug daotan mahitungod kaninyo.
5 But [God] is ready to judge the people who are living [now] and the people who have died, and he is the one who will decide whether he approves of what each of them has done.
Maghatag sila ug husay sa usa nga andam maghukom sa buhi ug sa patay.
6 That is the reason why the message [about Christ] was preached {[people] preached the message [about Christ]} to believers who have now died. [That message was preached to them] in order that even though [sinful] people might judge them [and say that they are guilty], God’s Spirit would [enable them to] live [eternally].
Alang niini nga katuyoan ang ebanghelyo gisangyaw usab ngadto sa mga patay, aron, bisan sila nahukman na diha sa unod ingon nga mga tawo, mabuhi sila sama sa Dios diha sa espiritu.
7 It is almost the time when everything on this earth will come to an end. Therefore, keep thinking sensibly/reasonably and control what you think [DOU], so that you can pray [clearly].
Ang kataposan sa tanang butang haduol na. Busa paghunahuna sa sakto, ug pagmalinawon sa inyong panghunahuna alang sa mga pag-ampo.
8 Most important of all, love each other earnestly/wholeheartedly, because if we love others [PRS], we will just ignore many of the sinful things that [they do to us].
Labaw sa tanang butang, pagmainiton sa paghigugma ngadto sa uban, kay ang gugma nagtabon sa daghang mga sala.
9 Provide food and a place to sleep for those [who come to your community], [and do it] without complaining.
Pagmaabi-abihon sa usag-usa sa walay pagbagulbol.
10 Believers should all use the spiritual gifts that God has given them to serve others. They should manage/use well the various gifts that God has kindly given them.
Ingon nga ang matag-usa kaninyo nakadawat sa gasa, gamita kini sa pag-alagad sa uban. Buhata kini ingon nga maayong piniyalan sa daghang mga gasa sa Dios. Kung adunay usa nga mosulti, tugoti kini nga mahisama sa mga tigpamaba sa Dios.
11 Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
Kung adunay usa nga nag-alagad, himoa kini nga naggikan sa kusog nga gisangkap sa Dios. Buhata kini nga mga butang aron sa tanang paagi ang Dios mahimaya pinaagi kang Jesu-Cristo. Hinaot nga maanaa diha ang himaya ug gahom ni Jesu-Cristo hangtod sa kahangtoran. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 You whom I love, do not be surprised about the painful things that you are suffering [because you belong to Christ]. [Those] things are [testing you as metals are tested by people putting them] in a fire. Do not think that something strange is happening to you.
Mga hinigugma, ayaw hunahunaa ingon nga talagsaon ang pagsulay sa kalayo nga nahitabo kaninyo, ingon nga talagsaong butang ang nahitabo kaninyo.
13 Instead, rejoice that you are suffering the same kinds of things that Christ endured. Rejoice when [you suffer], in order that you may also be very glad [DOU] when Christ returns and reveals how glorious/wonderful he is.
Hinuon, bisan daghan ang inyong nasinatian nga mga pag-antos kang Cristo, pagmaya, aron magmaya usab kamo ug magmalipayon sa pagpadayag sa iyang himaya.
14 If you are insulted {If [people] insult you} because you believe in Christ [MTY], [God is] pleased with you, because it shows that the Spirit of God, the Spirit who [reveals how] great [God is], lives within you.
Kung kamo gitamay tungod sa ngalan ni Cristo, bulahan kamo, tungod kay ang Espiritu sa himaya ug ang Espiritu sa Dios nagpuyo kaninyo.
15 If you suffer, do not let that suffering be the result of your being a murderer or a thief or as a result of doing some other evil thing, or as a result of interfering in someone else’s affairs.
Apan ayaw tugoti si bisan kinsa nga mag-antos ingon nga mamumuno, kawatan, magbubuhat ug daotan, o hilabtanon.
16 But if you suffer because of being a Christian, do not be ashamed about it. Instead, praise God that you are suffering because of belonging to Christ [MTY].
Apan kung si bisan kinsa mag-antos ingon nga Kristohanon, ayaw tugoti nga ikaulaw niya kini; hinuon, tugoti nga himayaon niya ang Dios uban nianang ngalana.
17 I say that, because it is now time for God to begin judging people, and first he will judge those who belong [MTY] to him. Since he will judge us believers first, think about the terrible things that will happen to [RHQ] those who do not obey the good message that comes from him!
Kay kini ang panahon sa paghukom nga magsugod sa panimalay sa Dios. Kung sugdan kini nganhi kanato, unsa ang dangatan niadtong wala mituman sa ebanghelyo sa Dios?
18 [That will be as it] is written in the Scriptures, [Many] righteous people [will have to suffer] many [difficult trials before going to heaven]. So ungodly and sinful people will surely have to suffer [much severe punishment from God]!
Ug kung “ang matarong nga tawo lisod maluwas, unsa pa kaha ang dili diosnon nga tawo ug ang makasasala?”
19 Therefore, those who suffer because of its being God’s will that they suffer [because of being Christians] should commit themselves to God, the one who created them and the one who always does what he promises to do. And they should continue to do what is right.
Busa pasagdi kadtong nag-antos tungod sa kabubut-on sa Dios nga isalig ang ilang mga kalag sa matinud-anon nga Magbubuhat sa pagbuhat ug maayo.
