1 Peter 5
1 I am exhorting the elders among you, I, who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and am also one who will share in the glory that will be revealed:
Koa ny amin’ ny loholona izay eo aminareo, izaho, izay naman ny loholona sy vavolombelon’ ny fijalian’ i Kristy ary mpiombona ny voninahitra efa haseho koa, dia mananatra azy hoe:
2 Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God would have you serve—not for shameful profit but eagerly.
Andraso ny ondrin’ Andriamanitra izay eo aminareo, mitandrina azy tsy an-terỳ, fa amin’ ny sitrapo [araka an’ Andriamanitra]; tsy amin’ ny fitiavana harena maloto, fa amin’ ny zotom-panahy;
3 Do not act as a master over the people who are in your care. Instead, be an example to the flock.
tsy ho mpanjakazaka, amin’ ny anjara-fiandrasana, fa ho fianaran’ ny ondry.
4 Then when the Chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive an unfading crown of glory.
Ary rehefa miseho ny Lohan’ ny mpiandry, dia hahazo ny satro-boninahitra tsy mety simba ianareo,
5 In the same way, you younger men, submit to the older men. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility and serve one another. For God resists the proud, but he gives grace to the humble.
Ary ianareo izay mbola tanora fanahy kosa, dia maneke ny loholona. Eny, samia misikìna fanetren-tena ianareo ka mifanompoa; fa “Andriamanitra manohitra ny miavonavona, fa manome fahasoavana ho an’ ny manetry tena”.
6 Therefore humble yourselves under God's mighty hand so that he may lift you up in due time.
Koa amin’ izany manetre tena ambanin’ ny tàna-maherin’ Andriamanitra, mba hanandratany anareo amin’ ny fotoan’ andro;
7 Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.
ary apetraho aminy ny fanahianareo rehetra; fa Izy no miahy anareo.
8 Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, is stalking around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.
Mahonòna tena, miambena: fa ny devoly fahavalonareo mandehandeha tahaka ny liona mierona mitady izay harapany;
9 Stand against him. Be strong in your faith. You know that your community of believers that is in the world is enduring the same sufferings.
tohero izy, ka miorena tsara amin’ ny finoana ianareo, satria fantatrareo fa izany fahoriana izany dia manjo ny rahalahinareo rehetra eran’ izao tontolo izao.
10 After you suffer for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will perfect you, establish you, and strengthen you. (aiōnios g166)
Ary Andriamanitry ny fahasoavana rehetra, Izay efa niantso anareo ho any amin’ ny voninahiny mandrakizay ao amin’ i Kristy, rehefa niaritra fahoriana vetivety ianareo, dia Izy no hahatanteraka sy hampiorina ary hampitoetra anareo. (aiōnios g166)
Ho Azy anie ny fanjakana mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. (aiōn g165)
12 I regard Silvanus as a faithful brother, and I have written to you briefly through him. I am exhorting you and I am testifying to you that what I have written is the true grace of God. Stand in it.
Efa manoratra teny fohifohy ho aminareo aho hampitondraina an’ i Silasy, izay ataoko ho rahalahy mahatoky, dia mananatra anareo aho ka manambara fa izany no tena fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra, ― tomoera tsara amin’ izany ianareo.
13 The woman who is in Babylon, who is chosen together with you, greets you. Also Mark, my son, greets you.
Izay any Babylona, voafidy ho namanareo, manao veloma anareo, ary Marka zanako koa.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. May peace be to you all who are in Christ.
Mifanaova veloma amin’ ny fanoroham-pitiavana. Ho aminareo rehetra izay ao amin’ i Kristy anie ny fiadanana.
