1 Peter 4
1 Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
Nipele pakuŵa Kilisito ŵasawiche mu chiilu, nomwe ŵakwe nlilimbisye nkuganisya iyoyo mpela yatite kuŵa jwelejo, pakuŵa jwelejo jwasawiche mu chiilu, alekangene ni sambi.
2 That he no longer should live the rest of [his] time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
Ni mmwe ŵakwe chitandile sambano, mmoŵa genu gagasigele pachilambo pano, kasintama kwa kusikuya tama syangalumbana syampagwile nasyo, nambo ntame kwa unonyelo wa Akunnungu.
3 For the time past of [our] life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
Pakuŵa katema kakapite ka umi wetu mwakwete katema kakaleu kakupanganya indu yaakupanganya ŵandu ŵangakwamanyilila Akunnungu. Mwatemi mu chigwagwa ni tama syangalumbana ni indimba yakutendekasya soni ni kupopela inyago yaikwachima Akunnungu.
4 In which they think it strange that ye run not with [them] to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of [you]:
Sambano, ŵele ŵandu ŵangakwamanya Akunnungu akunsimonga ŵanyamwe pakummona ndi ngankukamulangana nawo sooni mu ipanganyo yao ya soni, nipele akuntukananga.
5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the living and the dead.
Nambo ŵele ŵandu chachiliŵalanga achinsyene indu yao paujo pa Akunnungu, ŵakutama chile kwalamula ŵajumi ni ŵawe.
6 For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
Lyele lili ligongo lyati Ngani Jambone jalalichilwe ilaila kwa ŵawe, kuti alamulikwe mu iilu yao yakuti akusachilwa kuwa nti ŵandu ŵane. Ngani Jambone ji jalalichilwe kwa ŵanyawo kuti mu utame wao wa chimbumu akole umi mpela Akunnungu yatite kuŵa ŵajumi.
7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch to prayer.
Nambo mbesi ja indu yose jiŵandichile. Nkusachilwa mme ni lunda, nlitawale mwachinsyene ni kupopela.
8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity will cover a multitude of sins.
Kwipunda yose nnonyelane jwine ni jwine kwa ntima wenu wose, pakuŵa unonyelo ukuunichila sambi syejinji.
9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
Mpochelangane jwine ni jwine pangadandaula.
10 As every man hath received the gift, [even so] minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
Jwalijose akusachilwa atumichileje ntulilo wakwe wapegwilwe ni Akunnungu kwa ligongo lya ŵane. Naga akutenda yeleyo chaŵe jwakulindilila jwambone jwa ntulilo wauliwose umpegwilwe ni Akunnungu.
11 If any man speaketh [let him speak] as the oracles of God; if any man ministereth [let him do it] as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ; to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Jwakulalichila jwalijose, akusachilwa kuutyosya utenga wa Akunnungu. Ni jwakutumichila, atumichile malinga ni machili gapegwilwe ni Akunnungu, kuti ajinichilwe Akunnungu mu yose kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito. Ukulu ni ukombole uŵe kwa ŵelewo moŵa gose pangali mbesi ni moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Eloo. (aiōn g165)
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you:
Ŵakunonyelwa, nkakusimonga kupotekwa ligongo lya kulinjikwa kwakukulungwa. Kasimmalanga kuti chili chindu chachilendo kukwenu.
13 But rejoice, seeing ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Nambo nsengwanje pakuŵa nkusyoŵekana mmasausyo gao Kilisito, kuti nkombole kusengwa kwakupunda katema pachiunukulikwe ukulu wao.
14 If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you. On their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
Nkwete upile iŵaga ŵandu chantukane kwa ligongo lya Kilisito, chelechi chikulosya kuti Mbumu jwa ukulu, yani Mbumu jwa Akunnungu, akutama nomwe.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an evil-doer, or as a busy-body in other men's matters.
Akapagwa jwalijose mwenumwe jwakuŵajilwa kusauka ligongo ndi jwakuulaga pane jwawii pane jwakutenda yangalumbana ni jwakulijinjisya mmasengo ga ŵane.
16 Yet if [any man suffereth] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
Nambo iŵaga nkusauka ligongo ndi jwakunkuya Kilisito, ikantenda soni, nambo mwakusye Akunnungu pakuŵa mmwe ndi jwakwe Kilisito.
17 For the time [is come] that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if [it] first [beginneth] at us, what will [be] the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?
Pakuŵa katema ka ulamusi kaiche, ni ulamusi wo ukutanda kwa ŵandu wakwe Akunnungu asyene. Ni kulamulikwa ko iŵaga kukutanda kukwetu uwe, mbesi jakwe chijiŵe uli kwa ŵandu ŵangakujitichisya Ngani Jambone ja Akunnungu.
18 And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?
Mpela Malembelo ga Akunnungu yagakuti pakusala, “Iŵaga ili yakulimba kwa mundu jwali jwambone paujo pa Akunnungu kukulupuswa, chiŵe uli kwa jwangakwalamba Akunnungu ni jwali ni sambi?”
19 Wherefore, let them that suffer according to the will of God, commit the keeping of their souls [to him] in well-doing, as to a faithful Creator.
Nipele, ŵele ŵakusauka ligongo lya kusaka kwao Akunnungu, akusachilwa aliŵiche achinsyene mmakono mwa Akunnungu jwaali Jwakugumba jwao jwakukulupilichika, ni kwendelechela kupanganya yambone.
