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].
ARI, pweki Kristus kamekame ki kitail ni pali uduk a, i me komail en pil ale ong komail lamelam ota, pwe me kin kamekame ni pali uduk, muei sanger dip.
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.
Pwe a der poden dadaurata inong sued en aramas akan, a dadaurata kupur en Kot arain a memaur ni uduk.
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.
Pwe a itarer, omail wiawia en mas duen lamalam en men liki kan, ni omail kekeid ni tiak sued, o inong sued, o sokolar, o kaped en manga, o kamom soko, o kaudoki ong ani sakanekan.
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.
I me re puriamuiki, me komail solar kin iang irail ni ar wia sued o kaped en manga, o lalaue.
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.
A re pan weokadang i, me pan kadeikada me maur o me melar akan.
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].
Pwe i me rongamau pil loloki ong me melar akan, pwe irail en maurela. Ari so, ni pali war arail re lodi onger kadeik o duen a kin wiaui ren aramas akan, a ni pali ngen arail re memaur duen kupur en Kot.
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].
A imwin meakaros me korendor, komail ari masamasan o nantiong kapakap.
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].
A met eta, komail dadaurata omail poke pena, pwe limpok kin pwaindi dip toto.
9 Provide food and a place to sleep for those [who come to your community], [and do it] without complaining.
Komail apapwali men kairu o der lipalipaned.
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.
Duen omail aleer omail pai en mak kan, iduen omail papa pena duen saunkoa mau en mak en Kot.
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)
Ma amen pan wiada padak, a en wiada duen masan en Kot, o ma amen kin papa, a en papa duen Kot kotin kupurai ong i a mana, pwe kaping en ko ong Kot ni meakan karos, ren Iesus Kristus, me wau o manaman en ko ong kokolata soutuk! 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.
Kompok kan, komail der puriamuiki songapa’mail karakar, me pan lel ong komail, pwen kasongesong komail, der lamelame, me komail ta lel ong mepukat.
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.
A komail peren kida, pwe komail pwaisaneki en Kristus a kamekam, pwe ni a lingan sansaldo, komail pil pan perenda kaualapia.
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.
Komail meid pai, ma aramas pan kaurur kin komail pweki mar en Kristus! Pwe Ngen en lingan o en Kot kotikot re omail.
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.
A sota amen re omail en kamekameki kamela aramas, de lipirap, de me wia sued, de kauntenkoma en aramas a wiawia kan.
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].
A ma a kamekameki a saulang, a ender namenokki; a en kapinga Kot ni mepukat.
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!
Pwe a leler ansaun kamekam, me pan tapida sang ni tanpas en Kot; a ma a tapida re’tail, ia pan imwi en me sota poson rongamau en Kot?
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]!
A ma me apwal, en kamaureda me pung o, a ia wasa, me san Kot o me dipan akan pan pwaralang ia?
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.
Ari, irail me kamekam pan kupur en Kot, ren liki ong Kot melel ngen arail, ni arail wiawia mau.
