< 1 Peter 2 >

1 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
سَرْوّانْ دْویشانْ سَرْوّاںشْچَ چھَلانْ کاپَٹْیانِیرْشْیاح سَمَسْتَگْلانِکَتھاشْچَ دُورِیکرِتْیَ
2 as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
یُشْمابھِح پَرِتْرانایَ ورِدّھِپْراپْتْیَرْتھَں نَوَجاتَشِشُبھِرِوَ پْرَکرِتَں واگْدُگْدھَں پِپاسْیَتاں۔
3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
یَتَح پْرَبھُ رْمَدھُرَ ایتَسْیاسْوادَں یُویَں پْراپْتَوَنْتَح۔
4 Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
اَپَرَں مانُشَیرَوَجْناتَسْیَ کِنْتْوِیشْوَرینابھِرُچِتَسْیَ بَہُمُولْیَسْیَ جِیوَتْپْرَسْتَرَسْییوَ تَسْیَ پْرَبھوح سَنِّدھِمْ آگَتا
5 You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
یُویَمَپِ جِیوَتْپْرَسْتَرا اِوَ نِچِییَمانا آتْمِکَمَنْدِرَں کھْرِیشْٹینَ یِیشُنا چیشْوَرَتوشَکانامْ آتْمِکَبَلِیناں دانارْتھَں پَوِتْرو یاجَکَوَرْگو بھَوَتھَ۔
6 Because it is contained in Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”
یَتَح شاسْتْرے لِکھِتَماسْتے، یَتھا، پَشْیَ پاشانَ ایکو سْتِ سِییونِ سْتھاپِتو مَیا۔ مُکھْیَکونَسْیَ یوگْیَح سَ ورِتَشْچاتِیوَ مُولْیَوانْ۔ یو جَنو وِشْوَسیتْ تَسْمِنْ سَ لَجّاں نَ گَمِشْیَتِ۔
7 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”
وِشْواسِناں یُشْماکَمیوَ سَمِیپے سَ مُولْیَوانْ بھَوَتِ کِنْتْوَوِشْواسِناں کرِتے نِچیترِبھِرَوَجْناتَح سَ پاشانَح کونَسْیَ بھِتِّمُولَں بھُوتْوا بادھاجَنَکَح پاشانَح سْکھَلَنَکارَکَشْچَ شَیلو جاتَح۔
8 and, “a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.” For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
تے چاوِشْواسادْ واکْیینَ سْکھَلَنْتِ سْکھَلَنے چَ نِیُکْتاح سَنْتِ۔
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
کِنْتُ یُویَں یینانْدھَکارَمَدھْیاتْ سْوَکِییاشْچَرْیَّدِیپْتِمَدھْیَمْ آہُوتاسْتَسْیَ گُنانْ پْرَکاشَیِتُمْ اَبھِرُچِتو وَںشو راجَکِییو یاجَکَوَرْگَح پَوِتْرا جاتِرَدھِکَرْتَّوْیاح پْرَجاشْچَ جاتاح۔
10 In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
پُورْوَّں یُویَں تَسْیَ پْرَجا نابھَوَتَ کِنْتْوِدانِیمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پْرَجا آدھْوے۔ پُورْوَّمْ اَنَنُکَمْپِتا اَبھَوَتَ کِنْتْوِدانِیمْ اَنُکَمْپِتا آدھْوے۔
11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
ہے پْرِیَتَماح، یُویَں پْرَواسِنو وِدیشِنَشْچَ لوکا اِوَ مَنَسَح پْراتِکُولْیینَ یودھِبھْیَح شارِیرِکَسُکھابھِلاشیبھْیو نِوَرْتَّدھْوَمْ اِتْیَہَں وِنَیے۔
12 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.
دیوَپُوجَکاناں مَدھْیے یُشْماکَمْ آچارَ ایوَمْ اُتَّمو بھَوَتُ یَتھا تے یُشْمانْ دُشْکَرْمَّکارِلوکانِوَ پُنَ رْنَ نِنْدَنْتَح کرِپادرِشْٹِدِنے سْوَچَکْشُرْگوچَرِییَسَتْکْرِیابھْیَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پْرَشَںساں کُرْیُّح۔
13 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
تَتو ہیتو رْیُویَں پْرَبھورَنُرودھاتْ مانَوَسرِشْٹاناں کَرْترِتْوَپَداناں وَشِیبھَوَتَ وِشیشَتو بھُوپالَسْیَ یَتَح سَ شْریشْٹھَح،
14 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
دیشادھْیَکْشانانْچَ یَتَسْتے دُشْکَرْمَّکارِناں دَنْڈَدانارْتھَں سَتْکَرْمَّکارِناں پْرَشَںسارْتھَنْچَ تینَ پْریرِتاح۔
15 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
اِتّھَں نِرْبّودھَمانُشانامْ اَجْنانَتْوَں یَتْ سَداچارِبھِ رْیُشْمابھِ رْنِرُتَّرِیکْرِیَتے تَدْ اِیشْوَرَسْیابھِمَتَں۔
16 Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
یُویَں سْوادھِینا اِواچَرَتَ تَتھاپِ دُشْٹَتایا ویشَسْوَرُوپاں سْوادھِینَتاں دھارَیَنْتَ اِوَ نَہِ کِنْتْوِیشْوَرَسْیَ داسا اِوَ۔
17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
سَرْوّانْ سَمادْرِیَدھْوَں بھْراترِوَرْگے پْرِییَدھْوَمْ اِیشْوَرادْ بِبھِیتَ بھُوپالَں سَمَّنْیَدھْوَں۔
18 Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
ہے داساح یُویَں سَمْپُورْنادَرینَ پْرَبھُوناں وَشْیا بھَوَتَ کیوَلَں بھَدْراناں دَیالُونانْچَ نَہِ کِنْتْوَنرِجُونامَپِ۔
19 For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
یَتو نْیایینَ دُحکھَبھوگَکالَ اِیشْوَرَچِنْتَیا یَتْ کْلیشَسَہَنَں تَدیوَ پْرِیَں۔
20 For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.
پاپَں کرِتْوا یُشْماکَں چَپیٹاگھاتَسَہَنینَ کا پْرَشَںسا؟ کِنْتُ سَداچارَں کرِتْوا یُشْماکَں یَدْ دُحکھَسَہَنَں تَدیویشْوَرَسْیَ پْرِیَں۔
21 For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,
تَدَرْتھَمیوَ یُویَمْ آہُوتا یَتَح کھْرِیشْٹوپِ یُشْمَنِّمِتَّں دُحکھَں بھُکْتْوا یُویَں یَتْ تَسْیَ پَدَچِہْنَے رْوْرَجیتَ تَدَرْتھَں درِشْٹانْتَمیکَں دَرْشِتَوانْ۔
22 who didn’t sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”
سَ کِمَپِ پاپَں نَ کرِتَوانْ تَسْیَ وَدَنے کاپِ چھَلَسْیَ کَتھا ناسِیتْ۔
23 When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
نِنْدِتو پِ سَنْ سَ پْرَتِنِنْداں نَ کرِتَوانْ دُحکھَں سَہَمانو پِ نَ بھَرْتْسِتَوانْ کِنْتُ یَتھارْتھَوِچارَیِتُح سَمِیپے سْوَں سَمَرْپِتَوانْ۔
24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.
وَیَں یَتْ پاپیبھْیو نِورِتْیَ دھَرْمّارْتھَں جِیوامَسْتَدَرْتھَں سَ سْوَشَرِیریناسْماکَں پاپانِ کْرُشَ اُوڈھَوانْ تَسْیَ پْرَہارَے رْیُویَں سْوَسْتھا اَبھَوَتَ۔
25 For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
یَتَح پُورْوَّں یُویَں بھْرَمَنَکارِمیشا اِوادھْوَں کِنْتْوَدھُنا یُشْماکَمْ آتْمَناں پالَکَسْیادھْیَکْشَسْیَ چَ سَمِیپَں پْرَتْیاوَرْتِّتاح۔
