1 Peter 3
1 Married women, in the same way, be submissive to your husbands, so that even if some of them disbelieve the Message, they may, apart from the Message, be won over by the daily life of their wives, after watching your daily life--
| ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܝܢ ܢܫܐ ܐܫܬܥܒܕܝܢ ܠܒܥܠܝܟܝܢ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܛܦܝܤܝܢ ܠܡܠܬܐ ܒܕܘܒܪܝܟܝܢ ܫܦܝܪܐ ܕܠܐ ܥܡܠܐ ܬܩܢܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ |
2 so full of reverence, and so blameless!
| ܟܕ ܚܙܝܢ ܕܒܕܚܠܬܐ ܘܒܢܟܦܘܬܐ ܡܬܕܒܪܢ ܐܢܬܝܢ |
3 Your adornment ought not to be a merely outward thing--one of plaiting the hair, putting on jewelry, or wearing beautiful dresses.
| ܘܠܐ ܬܨܛܒܬܢ ܒܨܒܬܐ ܒܪܝܐ ܕܓܕܘܠܐ ܕܤܥܪܝܟܝܢ ܐܘ ܕܚܫܠܬܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܐܘ ܕܠܒܘܫܐ ܡܝܬܪܐ |
4 Instead of that, it should be a new nature within--the imperishable ornament of a gentle and peaceful spirit, which is indeed precious in the sight of God.
| ܐܠܐ ܐܨܛܒܬܝܢ ܒܒܪܢܫܐ ܟܤܝܐ ܕܠܒܐ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܡܟܝܟܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܚܒܠܐ ܨܒܬܐ ܕܡܝܬܪ ܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ |
5 For in ancient times also this was the way the holy women who set their hopes upon God used to adorn themselves, being submissive to their husbands.
| ܗܟܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܦ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܢܫܐ ܩܕܝܫܬܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܤܒܪܢ ܗܘܝ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܡܨܒܬܢ ܗܘܝ ܢܦܫܬܗܝܢ ܘܡܫܬܥܒܕܢ ܗܘܝ ܠܒܥܠܝܗܝܢ |
6 Thus, for instance, Sarah obeyed Abraham, acknowledging his authority over her. And you have become Sarah's children if you do what is right and permit nothing whatever to terrify you.
| ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܤܪܐ ܡܫܬܥܒܕܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܐܒܪܗܡ ܘܩܪܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܡܪܝ ܗܝ ܕܗܘܝܢ ܐܢܬܝܢ ܠܗ ܒܢܬܐ ܒܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܟܕ ܠܐ ܡܬܬܙܝܥܢ ܐܢܬܝܢ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܕܚܠܐ |
7 Married men, in the same way, live with your wives with a clear recognition of the fact that they are weaker than you. Yet, since you are heirs with them of God's free gift of Life, treat them with honour; so that your prayers may not be hindered.
| ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܥܡܪܘ ܥܡ ܢܫܝܟܘܢ ܒܝܕܥܬܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܕܠܡܐܢܐ ܡܚܝܠܐ ܒܐܝܩܪܐ ܐܚܘܕܘ ܐܢܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܦ ܗܢܝܢ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܝܪܬܢ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܕܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܬܬܩܠܝܢ ܒܨܠܘܬܟܘܢ |
8 In conclusion, all of you should be of one mind, quick to sympathize, kind to the brethren, tenderhearted, lowly-minded,
| ܫܘܠܡܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܒܐܘܝܘܬܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܚܫܝܢ ܥܡ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܚܫܝܢ ܘܪܚܡܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܪܚܡܬܢܝܢ ܘܡܟܝܟܝܢ |
9 not requiting evil with evil nor abuse with abuse, but, on the contrary, giving a blessing in return, because a blessing is what you have been called by God to inherit.
| ܘܠܐܢܫ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܚܠܦ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܦܪܥܘܢ ܘܐܦܠܐ ܨܘܚܝܬܐ ܚܠܦ ܨܘܚܝܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܠܩܘܒܠܐ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܒܪܟܝܢ ܠܗܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܬܩܪܝܬܘܢ ܕܒܘܪܟܬܐ ܬܐܪܬܘܢ |
10 For "He who wishes to be well-satisfied with life and see happy days-- let him restrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from deceitful words;
| ܡܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܚܝܐ ܘܪܚܡ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܛܒܐ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܢܛܪ ܠܫܢܗ ܡܢ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܤܦܘܬܗ ܠܐ ܢܡܠܠܢ ܢܟܠܐ |
11 Let him turn from evil, and do good; Let him inquire for peace and go in pursuit of it.
| ܢܥܒܪ ܡܢ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܢܥܒܕ ܛܒܬܐ ܘܢܒܥܐ ܫܠܡܐ ܘܢܪܗܛ ܒܬܪܗ |
12 For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and His ears are open to their supplication; but the face of the Lord is set against evil-doers."
| ܡܛܠ ܕܥܝܢܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܙܕܝܩܐ ܘܐܕܢܘܗܝ ܠܡܫܡܥ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܐܦܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܥܠ ܒܝܫܐ |
13 And who will be able to harm you, if you show yourselves zealous for that which is good?
| ܘܡܢܘ ܕܢܥܒܕ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܐܢ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܛܢܢܐ ܕܛܒܬܐ |
14 But even if you suffer for righteousness' sake, you are to be envied. So do not be alarmed by their threats, nor troubled;
| ܘܐܢ ܗܘ ܕܬܚܫܘܢ ܥܠ ܐܦܝ ܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܛܘܒܝܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܕܚܠܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܕܚܠܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܫܬܓܫܘܢ |
15 but in your hearts consecrate Christ as Lord, being always ready to make your defence to any one who asks from you a reason for the hope which you cherish.
| ܐܠܐ ܩܕܫܘ ܒܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܛܝܒܝܢ ܠܡܦܩ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܠܟܠ ܕܬܒܥ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܠܬܐ ܥܠ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܒܡܟܝܟܘܬܐ ܘܒܕܚܠܬܐ |
16 Yet argue modestly and cautiously, keeping your consciences free from guilt, so that, when you are spoken against, those who slander your good Christian lives may be put to shame.
| ܟܕ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܬܐܪܬܐ ܛܒܬܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܥܠܝܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܥܠ ܐܢܫܐ ܒܝܫܐ ܢܒܗܬܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܛܠܡܝܢ ܠܕܘܒܪܝܟܘܢ ܫܦܝܪܐ ܕܒܡܫܝܚܐ |
17 For it is better that you should suffer for doing right, if such be God's will, than for doing evil;
| ܥܕܪܐ ܗܝ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܟܕ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܬܤܒܠܘܢ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܐܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܐ ܟܕ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܝܫܬܐ |
18 because Christ also once for all died for sins, the innocent One for the guilty many, in order to bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit,
| ܡܛܠ ܕܐܦ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܚܕܐ ܙܒܢ ܡܝܬ ܚܠܦ ܚܛܗܝܢ ܙܕܝܩܐ ܚܠܦ ܚܛܝܐ ܕܢܩܪܒܟܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܘܡܝܬ ܒܦܓܪ ܘܚܝܐ ܒܪܘܚ |
19 in which He also went and proclaimed His Message to the spirits that were in prison,
| ܘܐܟܪܙ ܠܢܦܫܬܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܚܝܕܢ ܗܘܝ ܒܫܝܘܠ |
20 who in ancient times had been disobedient, while God's longsuffering was patiently waiting in the days of Noah during the building of the Ark, in which a few persons--eight in number--were brought safely through the water.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܠܐ ܐܬܛܦܝܤ ܗܘܝ ܒܝܘܡܬܗ ܕܢܘܚ ܟܕ ܡܓܪܬ ܪܘܚܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܦܩܕܬ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܩܒܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܬܝܒܘܬܗܘܢ ܘܬܡܢܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܢܦܫܢ ܥܠܝܢ ܠܗ ܘܚܝܝ ܒܡܝܐ |
21 And, corresponding to that figure, the water of baptism now saves you--not the washing off of material defilement, but the craving of a good conscience after God--through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
| ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܗ ܒܗܘ ܛܘܦܤܐ ܚܝܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܡܥܡܘܕܝܬܐ ܠܘ ܟܕ ܦܓܪܐ ܡܫܝܓܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܨܐܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܟܕ ܡܘܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܒܬܐܪܬܐ ܕܟܝܬܐ ܘܒܩܝܡܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ |
22 who is at God's right hand, having gone into Heaven, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
| ܗܘ ܕܐܬܥܠܝ ܠܫܡܝܐ ܘܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܥܠ ܝܡܝܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܫܬܥܒܕܘ ܠܗ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܘܫܠܝܛܢܐ ܘܚܝܠܘܬܐ |
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
