1 Peter 5
1 Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Kwa wazewi yawawera yawalongoziya pakati penu, neni nuwahiga panwera mzewi muyenu, mkapitawu gwa ntabika ya Kristu na ntenditi pamuhera muukwisa haugubutulwi pamberi,
2 shepherd the flock of God which is among you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
mushiloleri weri shipinga shampananitwi na Mlungu, mushiloleri weri, kwa kulazimisha ndiri kumbiti kwa moyu muheri ntambu yakafira Mlungu. Mtendi lihengu ali kwa kufira ndiri mpiya, kumbiti kwa moyu gwenu gwoseri.
3 not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
Namuwakolamlima kwa makakala walii yawatulitwi pasi pa ugolokera wenu, kumbiti muweri mfanu kwa shipinga ashi.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
Na Mlolera Mkulu pakalawira, mwenga hamuwanki lijenjeri lya ukwisa yawufifiya ndiri.
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Ntambu iraa ayi mwenga wantemba mufiruwa kuwajimira wazewi yawalongoziya. Mwawoseri mwenga mfiruwa kuwera wananaga su mpati kulitenderana maweni toziya Malembu Mananagala galonga, “Mlungu kawasinga wantu yawawera na malingisi kumbiti kawalanguziya manemu wantu yawawera wananaga.”
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
Su mnanagi pasi pa liwoku lya Mlungu lyaliwera na makakala, su kawanyasuli kwa shipindi shakuwi.
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
Mumtulili magaziwu genu goseri, toziya yomberi kankuwalolera weri.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Mulikolimlima na mulikali masu! Toziya mngondu gwenu, Mkondola, kankuzyengetazyengeta gambira simba yakaguguma pakasakula muntu gwa kumliya nakamu.
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
Mgangamali munjimiru na mumlemi Shetani, pamuvimana kuwera walongu wenu yawajimira Kristu poseri pasipanu wankupananwa na ntabiku iraa ayi.
10 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. (aiōnios g166)
Kumbiti pamtabika kala kwa shipindi shididini, Mlungu yakawera gwa manemu goseri yakawashemiti kwingira muukwisa wakuwi wa mashaka goseri mukulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu, yomberi mweni hakawatendi waweri wakomu kayi na kuwatula makakala na kuwagangamaziya na kuwapanana lyanjiru ligangamala. (aiōnios g166)
Kwakuwi Mlungu kuweri uwezu mashaka goseri! Yina haa. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
Nuwalembiriti luhamba alu ludidini kwa utanga wa Silwanu, mlongu yanummana na kumjimira. Nfira kuwapanana moyu na kutakula kuwera shitwatira ashi ndo manemu ga nakaka ga Mlungu. Mgangamali mumanemu aga.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
Shipinga sha wantu yawamjimira Kristu wayenu yawasyagulitwi na Mlungu panu Babiloni, wankuwalamsiya. Vulaa vilii Mariku yakawera gambira mwana gwangu, kankuwalamsiya.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Mulilamsiyi kwa lirangaliru lya mafiliru ga wantu yawalikolerana pamuhera na Kristu. Ponga iweri kwa mwenga mwawoseri yamulikolerana pamuhera na Kristu. Yina haa.
