< Petro 1 3 >
1 Nenema ke mi srɔ̃nyɔnuwo la, mibɔbɔ mia ɖokuiwo na mia srɔ̃wo ale be ne wo dometɔ aɖewo mexɔ nya la dzi se o la, to wo srɔ̃nyɔnuwo ƒe agbe ɖɔʋu nɔnɔ me la, woakpɔ ɖeɖe, nya aɖeke magblɔmagblɔ na woe,
Ngokunjalo, bafazi zehliseni kubomkenu ukuze kuthi lanxa abanye babo bengalikholwa ilizwi, baphenduke ngokuziphatha kwabomkabo kungekho kukhuluma,
2 ne wokpɔ dzadzɛnyenye kple bubu si le woƒe agbe me.
lapho bebona ukuhlanzeka lenhlonipho yokuphila kwenu.
3 Miaƒe tugbedzedze megatso gota gome lekewɔwɔ me, abe ɖa ŋɔŋɔe ƒoƒo, sikanuwo dodo kple avɔ xɔasiwo tata me ene o,
Ubuhle benu kabungaveli ekuziceciseni kwangaphandle, okunjengenwele ezelukiweyo lokugqiza izigqizo zegolide kanye lokugqoka izigqoko ezinhle.
4 ke boŋ miaƒe tugbedzedze nanye ememetɔ, tugbedzedze malũxɛ si nye tufafa kple bɔbɔenyenye ƒe gbɔgbɔ si xɔ asi le Mawu ƒe ŋkume ŋutɔ.
Kodwa kumele bube ngobangaphakathi kwenu, ubuhle obungapheliyo bomoya omnene lothuleyo, oligugu elikhulu emehlweni kaNkulunkulu.
5 Elabena aleae nyɔnu kɔkɔe, siwo nɔ anyi le blema, esiwo tsɔ woƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ da ɖe Mawu dzi la wɔa leke na wo ɖokuiwoe. Wobɔbɔ wo ɖokuiwo na wo srɔ̃wo
Ngoba le yiyo indlela abesifazane abangcwele bakudala ababethembe uNkulunkulu bejayele ukuzicola ngayo. Babezehlisa kubomkabo,
6 abe ale si Sara bɔbɔ eɖokui na Abraham, eye wòyɔe be aƒetɔ la ene. Mienye via nyɔnuwo ne miewɔ nu dzɔdzɔe, eye mieɖe mɔ na vɔvɔ̃ o.
njengoSara owalalela u-Abhrahama wambiza ngokuthi yinkosi yakhe. Lingamadodakazi kaSara nxa lisenza okulungileyo njalo lingavumeli ukwesaba.
7 Nenema ke, mi srɔ̃ŋutsuwo hã minɔ anyi kple mia srɔ̃wo le nunya me, mide bubu wo ŋu, elabena wonye gbɔdzɔgbɔdzɔtɔwo, eye wonye domenyilawo kpli mi le amenuveve nunana si nye agbe si wona mi, ale be naneke maxe mɔ na miaƒe gbedodoɖawo o.
Ngokufanayo, madoda ekuphileni kwenu labomkenu wobani lozwelo, libaphathe ngenhlonipho njengababuthakathaka labazindlalifa kanye lani zesipho sokuphila esomusa, ukuze kungabi lalutho oluzavimbela imikhuleko yenu.
8 Mlɔeba la, mi katã minɔ anyi kple mia nɔewo le ɖekawɔwɔ me, ame ƒe nu newɔ nublanui na mi, milɔ̃ mia nɔewo abe dadaviwo ene, minyo dɔ me na amewo, eye mibɔbɔ mia ɖokui.
Okokucina lonke hlalisanani ngokuthula; wobani lozwelo, lithandane njengabazalwane, libe lesihawu kanye lokuthobeka.
9 Migatsɔ vɔ̃ ɖo vɔ̃ teƒe alo dzu ɖo dzu teƒe o, ke boŋ miɖo teƒe na wo kple yayra, elabena esia ta woyɔ mi vɛ ɖo be mianyi yayra ƒe dome.
Lingaphindiseli okubi ngokubi loba inhlamba ngenhlamba, kodwa ngesibusiso, ngoba labizelwa ukuze lizuze ilifa lokubusiswa.
10 Elabena, “Ame si lɔ̃ agbe, eye wòdi be yeakpɔ ŋkekenyuiwo la, nelé eƒe aɖe be magblɔ nya vɔ̃ aɖeke o, kple eƒe nu, be magblɔ beblenya aɖeke o.
Ngoba, “Lowo othanda ukuphila abone lensuku ezinhle kumele anqande ulimi lwakhe kokubi lezindebe zakhe ekukhulumeni inkohliso.
11 Ele nɛ be wòaɖe asi le vɔ̃ ŋu, awɔ nyui, eye wòadi ŋutifafa, ati eyome.
Kumele batshiye ububi benze okulungileyo; kumele bafune ukuthula njalo bakunxwanele.
12 Elabena Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkuwo le ame dzɔdzɔewo ŋu, eye eƒe towo le te ɖe woƒe gbedodoɖa ŋu, ke Aƒetɔ la tsia tsitre ɖe ame siwo wɔa nu vɔ̃ la ŋuti.”
Ngoba amehlo kaThixo akhangele abalungileyo lezindlebe zakhe ziyezwa, imikhuleko yabo, kodwa ubuso bukaJehova bumelana lalabo abenza okubi.”
13 Ame kae awɔ nu vevi mi, ne mietsi dzi ɖe nu nyui wɔwɔ ŋu?
Ngubani ozalilimaza nxa litshisekela ukwenza okulungileyo na?
14 Ke ne miekpe fu le nu nyui wɔwɔ me gɔ̃ hã la, woayra mi. “Migavɔ̃ nu si vɔ̃m wole o; dzidzi hã megaƒo mi o.”
Kodwa lanxa lingahlupheka ngenxa yokulungileyo, libusisekile. “Lingakwesabi lokho abakwesabayo; kalingethuswa.”
15 Ke le miaƒe dziwo me la, mina nɔƒe tɔxɛ Kristo abe Aƒetɔ kɔkɔe ene. Minɔ klalo ɣe sia ɣi be miaɖo nya ŋu na ame sia ame si abia mi be miagblɔ nu si ta mɔkpɔkpɔ sia le mia si ɖo.
Kodwa yamukelani uKhristu ezinhliziyweni zenu njengeNkosi engcwele. Hlalani lilungele ukuphendula loba ngubani olibuza isizatho ngethemba elilalo.
16 Ke miaƒe dzitsinya me nakɔ keŋkeŋ, ale be ame siwo ƒoa nu vlo le mia ŋuti le agbe nyui si nɔm miele le Kristo me ta la naɖu ŋukpe le woƒe ameŋugblẽnyawo ta.
Kodwa lokhu kwenzeni ngobumnene langenhlonipho, lilesazela esihle, ukuze kuthi labo abakhuluma okubi ngokuziphatha kwenu okuhle kuKhristu bayangeke ngokuhlambaza kwabo.
17 Ne enye Mawu ƒe lɔlɔ̃nu la, enyo be woakpe fu le nu nyui wɔwɔ ta wu ɖe nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ ta,
Ngoba kungcono nxa kuyintando kaNkulunkulu, ukuhlupheka ngenxa yokwenza okulungileyo kulokwenza okubi.
18 elabena Kristo ku ɖe míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta zi ɖeka hena ɣeyiɣiwo katã. Mewɔ nu vɔ̃ aɖeke kpɔ o, gake eku ɖe nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo ta be wòakplɔ mi va Mawu gbɔe dedie. Wowui le ŋutilã me, ke wogbɔ agbee le Gbɔgbɔ me,
Ngoba uKhristu wafela izono zenu kwaba kanye, olungileyo efela abangalunganga, ukuze alise kuNkulunkulu. Wabulawa emzimbeni, kodwa wavuswa nguMoya,
19 Eto edzi yi ɖagblɔ mawunya na gbɔgbɔ siwo le gaxɔ me,
wahamba ngaye wayatshumayela emimoyeni eyayisentolongweni yona
20 ame siwo sẽ to le blema, le esime Mawu lala le dzigbɔɖi blibo me, le Noa ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me, esi wònɔ aɖakaʋu la kpam. Ame ʋɛ aɖewo, ame siwo ƒe xexlẽme nye enyi ko woɖe le tsiɖɔɖɔ la me.
engalalelanga kudala lapho uNkulunkulu alinda khona ngokubekezela ensukwini zikaNowa umkhumbi usakhiwa. Phakathi kwawo abantu abalutshwana nje kuphela, abayisificaminwembili bebonke, basindiswa ngamanzi,
21 Ke tsiɖɔɖɔ la nye mawutsideta si miexɔ hena ɖeɖekpɔkpɔ ƒe dzesi, ke menye ɖikɔklɔ le ŋutigbalẽ ŋu wònye o, ke boŋ adzɔgbeɖeɖe be woatsɔ dzitsinya nyui atrɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu. Mawu sia ɖe mi to Yesu Kristo ƒe tsitretsitsi me,
njalo amanzi la afanekisa umbhaphathizo osusilisa lani futhi, kungayisikho kususa ingcekeza emzimbeni kodwa kuyisibambiso sesazela esihle kuNkulunkulu. Siyalisilisa ngokuvuka kwabafileyo kukaJesu Khristu,
22 ame si yi ɖe dziƒo, ɖanɔ Mawu ƒe nuɖusime, eye mawudɔlawo, dziɖulawo kple ŋusẽwo bɔbɔ wo ɖokui nɛ.
oseye ezulwini njalo usesandleni sokunene sikaNkulunkulu, lezingilosi, leziphathamandla kanye lezikhulu ekuzehliseni kuye.
