1 Peter 1
1 Petre, apostle of Jhesu Crist, to the chosun men, to the comelingis of scateryng abrood, of Ponte, of Galathie, of Capadosie,
耶穌基督的使徒彼得寫信給那分散在本都、加拉太、加帕多家、亞細亞、庇推尼寄居的，
2 of Asye, and of Bitynye, bi the `bifor knowyng of God, the fadir, in halewyng of spirit, bi obedience, and springyng of the blood of Jhesu Crist, grace and pees be multiplied to you.
就是照父上帝的先見被揀選，藉着聖靈得成聖潔，以致順服耶穌基督，又蒙他血所灑的人。願恩惠、平安多多地加給你們。
3 Blessid be God, and the fadir of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, which bi his greet merci bigat vs ayen in to lyuynge hope, bi the ayen risyng of Jhesu Crist fro deth,
願頌讚歸與我們主耶穌基督的父上帝！他曾照自己的大憐憫，藉耶穌基督從死裏復活，重生了我們，叫我們有活潑的盼望，
4 in to eritage vncorruptible, and vndefoulid, and that schal not fade, that is kept in heuenes for you,
可以得着不能朽壞、不能玷污、不能衰殘、為你們存留在天上的基業。
5 that in the vertu of God ben kept bi the feith in to heelthe, and is redi to be schewid in the last tyme.
你們這因信蒙上帝能力保守的人，必能得着所預備、到末世要顯現的救恩。
6 In which ye schulen make ioye, thouy it bihoueth now a litil to be sori in dyuerse temptaciouns;
因此，你們是大有喜樂；但如今，在百般的試煉中暫時憂愁，
7 that the preuyng of youre feith be myche more preciouse than gold, that is preuyd bi fier; and be foundun in to heriyng, and glorie, and onour, in the reuelacioun of Jhesu Crist.
叫你們的信心既被試驗，就比那被火試驗仍然能壞的金子更顯寶貴，可以在耶穌基督顯現的時候得着稱讚、榮耀、尊貴。
8 Whom whanne ye han not seyn, ye louen; in to whom also now ye not seynge, bileuen; but ye that bileuen schulen haue ioye, and gladnesse that may not be teld out,
你們雖然沒有見過他，卻是愛他；如今雖不得看見，卻因信他就有說不出來、滿有榮光的大喜樂；
9 and ye schulen be glorified, and haue the ende of youre feith, the helthe of youre soulis.
並且得着你們信心的果效，就是靈魂的救恩。
10 Of which helthe profetis souyten, and enserchiden, that profecieden of the grace to comyng in you,
論到這救恩，那預先說你們要得恩典的眾先知早已詳細地尋求考察，
11 and souyten which euer what maner tyme the spirit of Crist signyfiede in hem, and bifor telde tho passiouns, that ben in Crist, and the latere glories.
就是考察在他們心裏基督的靈，預先證明基督受苦難，後來得榮耀，是指着甚麼時候，並怎樣的時候。
12 To which it was schewid, for not to hem silf, but to you thei mynystriden tho thingis, that now ben teld to you bi hem that prechiden to you bi the Hooli Goost sent fro heuene, in to whom aungelis desiren to biholde.
他們得了啟示，知道他們所傳講的一切事，不是為自己，乃是為你們。那靠着從天上差來的聖靈傳福音給你們的人，現在將這些事報給你們；天使也願意詳細察看這些事。
13 For which thing be ye gird the leendis of youre soule, sobre, perfit, and hope ye in to the ilke grace that is profrid to you bi the schewyng of Jhesu Crist,
所以要約束你們的心，謹慎自守，專心盼望耶穌基督顯現的時候所帶來給你們的恩。
14 as sones of obedience, not made lijk to the formere desiris of youre vnkunnyngnesse,
你們既作順命的兒女，就不要效法從前蒙昧無知的時候那放縱私慾的樣子。
15 but lijk him that hath `clepid you hooli; that also `ye silf be hooli in `al lyuyng;
那召你們的既是聖潔，你們在一切所行的事上也要聖潔。
16 for it is writun, Ye schulen be hooli, for Y am hooli.
因為經上記着說：「你們要聖潔，因為我是聖潔的。」
17 And if ye inwardli clepe him fadir, which demeth withouten accepcioun of persoones bi the werk of ech man, lyue ye in drede in the time of youre pilgrimage; witynge that not bi corruptible gold,
你們既稱那不偏待人、按各人行為審判人的主為父，就當存敬畏的心度你們在世寄居的日子，
18 ethir siluer, ye ben bouyt ayen of youre veyn liuynge of fadris tradicioun,
知道你們得贖，脫去你們祖宗所傳流虛妄的行為，不是憑着能壞的金銀等物，
19 but bi the precious blood as of the lomb vndefoulid and vnspottid,
乃是憑着基督的寶血，如同無瑕疵、無玷污的羔羊之血。
20 Crist Jhesu, that was knowun bifor the makyng of the world, but he is schewid in the laste tymes,
基督在創世以前是預先被上帝知道的，卻在這末世才為你們顯現。
21 for you that bi hym ben feithful in God; that reiside hym fro deth, and yaf to hym euerlastynge glorie, that youre feith and hope were in God.
你們也因着他，信那叫他從死裏復活、又給他榮耀的上帝，叫你們的信心和盼望都在於上帝。
22 And make ye chast youre soulis in obedience of charite, in loue of britherhod; of simple herte loue ye togidre more bisili.
你們既因順從真理，潔淨了自己的心，以致愛弟兄沒有虛假，就當從心裏彼此切實相愛。
23 And be ye borun ayen, not of corruptible seed, `but vncorruptible, bi the word of lyuynge God, and dwellynge in to with outen ende. (aiōn g165)
你們蒙了重生，不是由於能壞的種子，乃是由於不能壞的種子，是藉着上帝活潑常存的道。 (aiōn g165)
24 For ech fleisch is hey, and al the glorie of it is as flour of hey; the hei driede vp, and his flour felde doun;
因為 凡有血氣的，盡都如草； 他的美榮都像草上的花。 草必枯乾，花必凋謝；
