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--
Namwenga wadala, mlituli pasi pa uwezu wa wapalu wenu, su handa kwana wapalu woseri yawajimira ndiri shisoweru sha Mlungu, wapati kujimira kwa kuguwona mgenderanu gwenu. Hayiweri ndiri kwa mwenga mpaka kutakula shisoweru,
2 so full of reverence, and so blameless!
toziya hawawoni ntambu mgenderanu gwenu yaguwera guherepa na gwa ligoya.
3 Your adornment ought not to be a merely outward thing--one of plaiting the hair, putting on jewelry, or wearing beautiful dresses.
Kuliheripiziya kwa mwenga namtumbira vitwatira vya kunja, gambira ntambu zya kudukusa viri zya maringisu nentu na kuvala vintu vya zahabu na nguwu zya beyi nkulu.
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.
Su uherepa wenu ufiruwa kulawirana na ntambu ya mngati mwa untu wa nakaka, uherepa yawunyala ndiri wa uheri na unyamaliru wa rohu, weni ndo wa mana nentu palongolu pa Mlungu.
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.
Hangu ndo ntambu yawaliherepiziyiti pamakashu wadala wananagala yawamguwiriti na kumtumbira Mlungu kwa kulitula pasi pa wapalu wawu,
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.
gambira Sara ntambu yakalituliti pasi pa Aburahamu na kumshema yomberi mtuwa gwakuwi. Mwenga muwera vinu wahinga wakuwi handa pamutenda gaherepa pota kutiliziwa shintu shoseri.
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.
Ntambu iraa ayi mwenga wapalu, mulikali na wadala wenu kwa mahala, muwapanani ligoya pamuvimana kuwera womberi wawera legilegi na ntambu yawawera wahala pamuhera na mwenga manemu ga ukomu, mtendi hangu su kwahera shintu hashileweleri maluwa genu kwa Mlungu.
8 In conclusion, all of you should be of one mind, quick to sympathize, kind to the brethren, tenderhearted, lowly-minded,
Upeleru, mwenga mwawoseri mfiruwa kuwera na moyu gumu na pamuliwonera lusungu maweni mwenga na muweri wapoli na wananaga.
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.
Namuwawuzilira wantu vidoda kwa vidoda, ama mayigilangu kwa mayigilangu kumbiti muwatekeleri, toziya mwenga mshemitwi na Mlungu mpati kugahala matekeleru.
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;
Malembu Mananagala galonga, “Muntu yakafiriti kuganemelera makaliru, na kugawona mashaka gaherepa, kalileweleri nakatakula makondola na kushapira kulonga upayira.
11 Let him turn from evil, and do good; Let him inquire for peace and go in pursuit of it.
Kaleki kutenda ukondola na katendi gaherepa, kayisakuli ponga na kuyikolera weri.
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."
Toziya masu ga Mtuwa gawalola walii yawawera waheri na kugapikanira maluwa gawu, Kumbiti kawatulira shisogu wantu yawatenda makondola.”
13 And who will be able to harm you, if you show yourselves zealous for that which is good?
Ndo gaa hakawatenduwi mwenga handa pamuwera wagangamala mukutenda gaherepa?
14 But even if you suffer for righteousness' sake, you are to be envied. So do not be alarmed by their threats, nor troubled;
Kumbiti ata pamfiruwa kupata ntabiku toziya ya kutenda yagamfiriziya Mlungu, su mtekelerwa! Namtira shilii shawatira womberi, namutulwa mukushashatika.
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.
Kumbiti mumkwisi Kristu kuwera Mtuwa mumyoyu mwenu. Muweri kala kumwankula muntu yoseri yakawakosiya litumbiru lyamuwera nali.
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.
Su mtendi hangu kwa lyoga na ligoya, kumbiti muweri na nfiru zyazitulanguziya mwahera likosa, su woseri pawawahigilanga kulawirana na mgenderanu guherepa yamuwera nagu mu Kristu, womberi hawasoniziwi kwa shilii shawawayowelera.
17 For it is better that you should suffer for doing right, if such be God's will, than for doing evil;
Toziya iherepa kutabika kwa kutenda maheri, Mlungu pakafira, kuliku kutabika kwa kutenda makondola.
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,
Su Kristu viraa katabisiyitwi na kuhowa kwa mala yimu hera toziya ya vidoda, yomberi yakaweriti muheri katabisiyitwi na kuhowa toziya ya wantu wakondola, su kawalanguziyi mwenga njira ya kumgendera Mlungu. Yomberi kalagitwi shinshimba kumbiti katenditwi mkomu murohu,
19 in which He also went and proclaimed His Message to the spirits that were in prison,
na kwa rohu vulaa yomberi kagenditi kuzibwelera rohu zilii zyaziweriti mushibetubetu
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.
yawalemiti kujimila pamakashu Mlungu pakawahepeleriti mumashaka ga Nuhu shipindi Safina payiweriti yankunyawiwa. Musafina amu, wantu watangala ndiri, wantu wanani hera pa wantu woseri ndo walopoziwitwi pamashi,
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,
na mashi geni gaweriti mfanu gwa ubatizu yawuwalopoziyiti mwenga vinu vulaa. Ubatizu ndo shisoweru ndiri shakuwusiya udoda munshimba kumbiti ndo lagilu lya nfiru iherepa kwa Mlungu. Liwalopoziyi mwenga kwa uzyukusiwu wa Yesu Kristu,
22 who is at God's right hand, having gone into Heaven, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
yomberi yakagenditi kumpindi na vinu kalikala uwega wa kumliwu wa Mlungu, kankuwakolamlima wantumintumi wa kumpindi wa Mlungu woseri na ukulu na yawawera na makakala.
