1 Peter 4
1 Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,
Naki, nitu wa Yesu Aye tiya nimi kpa u nma ni yi, kakpa mbi ni imren ni nkoh ndindima. U ndji wa-atiya ni kpa yi ana he ni lla-tre na.
2 that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.
Nitu ki, indji ki, ni-mbru son ma nimi kpa yi, ana la tie ndu soh suron ba ndji ngana, u ani tie son suron Irji.
3 For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.
Inton babrah a kle ye wa ki soh si tie kpi wa ndji bi wa bana toh Irji na ba wa ba tie - tishishi, yo suron, iso-kpie, iso hi, meme ro ni hu-mba ntankpah me.
4 They think it is strange that you don’t run with them into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you.
Ni mre-mba, ba ya ndi a kpe sá ma to bina huba ni tie memme ro'a, u ba kma si tre memme nitu mbi.
5 They will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
Ko nha ni bla kpie biwa ba tie ni ndji wa'a soh si gben doh du vu bi lla-tre, biwa ba qu ni biwa ba rihen qu.
6 For to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh, but live as to God in the spirit.
Nitu ki ba hla tre Irji ni biwa ba qu ngame, ni tu wa ba bla tre bawu ni wa ba hei ni vri na ndi, ama ba sun ni Ruhu Irji ni ndu ma.
7 But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer.
Ko nge si tie hwihre u kle ye. Vu suron ni sunti, ni mmre me nitu bre Irji.
8 And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.
Ko shishi ni ko nge, bika son kpa mbi, toh bi son kpa-mbi ani ka memme wa njo tie.
9 Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
Vu kpa-mbi nji mgbamgba me ndi na tre memme na.
10 As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
wa ko nha mbi kpa nenne ma, tie ndu ni wu ndi zo kpa-mbi. Tie ndu Irji ni njanji ni koma biyi wa a no yi.
11 If anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Toh ri mbi tre, dun tie na a ndji wa asi tie tre Irji. To njo si tie ndu, dun tie-u rji ni mgbemgblen wa Irji nji ye. Tie ba naki, dun Irji kpa gbire san ni nde Yesu Kristi. Dun nde Yesu Kristi kpa dokaka ni iko rji ni zizan hra-bada. Ami. (aiōn g165)
12 Beloved, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.
Mmri vayi, na ya ndi a kpe sá ma na wa ba tsra yi ni llu, na kpe sá mba si tie yi.
13 But because you are partakers of Christ’s sufferings, rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.
Ko tö bi tie yá babran nitu nde Kristi, kpa-u ngiri, u naki bi la kpa ngiri niwa ba byu dokaka ma.
14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.
Tö ba mre yi nitu nde Kristi'a, bi kpa lulu, nitu Ruhu u dokaka ni Ruhu Irji wa-a kakru nimi mbi.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men’s matters.
Na dun njo-mbi dun tie ya na bi wu ndji, ndji-u yibi, ndji u tie memme, ko ndji wa'a ni ri-tre wa-ana uma na.
16 But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.
To njo tie ya na-u Krista, dun na klu shan na; dun tie ndu ni nde ndindi'a nda nzuh nde Irji.
17 For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News of God?
i nton u tie sheriya wa ba guchi tie ni koh Irji. To ba guchi tie ni ta, ahi nge ni he ni biwa bana kpa wõ tre Irji-a na.
18 “If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will happen to the ungodly and the sinner?”
U, “tö ndji wa ani hu Irji-a ati-u ya dun kpa-u chuwo, u nihe ndji wa ana hu Irji na ni tie?”
19 Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.
Nitu wayi, biwa ba tie ya nitu Irji ba ka suron mba yo ni tu Irji wa a tie ta dun tie ndindi ni tawu.
