1 Petera 5
1 Koa ny amin’ ny loholona izay eo aminareo, izaho, izay naman ny loholona sy vavolombelon’ ny fijalian’ i Kristy ary mpiombona ny voninahitra efa haseho koa, dia mananatra azy hoe:
The elders which are among you, I beseech which am also an elder, and a witnesse of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shalbe reueiled,
2 Andraso ny ondrin’ Andriamanitra izay eo aminareo, mitandrina azy tsy an-terỳ, fa amin’ ny sitrapo [araka an’ Andriamanitra]; tsy amin’ ny fitiavana harena maloto, fa amin’ ny zotom-panahy;
Feede the flocke of God, which dependeth vpon you, caring for it not by constraint, but willingly: not for filthy lucre, but of a ready minde:
3 tsy ho mpanjakazaka, amin’ ny anjara-fiandrasana, fa ho fianaran’ ny ondry.
Not as though ye were lords ouer Gods heritage, but that yee may bee ensamples to the flocke.
4 Ary rehefa miseho ny Lohan’ ny mpiandry, dia hahazo ny satro-boninahitra tsy mety simba ianareo,
And when that chiefe shepheard shall appeare, ye shall receiue an incorruptible crowne of glory.
5 Ary ianareo izay mbola tanora fanahy kosa, dia maneke ny loholona. Eny, samia misikìna fanetren-tena ianareo ka mifanompoa; fa “Andriamanitra manohitra ny miavonavona, fa manome fahasoavana ho an’ ny manetry tena”.
Likewise ye yonger, submit your selues vnto the elders, and submit your selues euery man, one to another: decke your selues inwardly in lowlinesse of minde: for God resisteth the proude, and giueth grace to the humble.
6 Koa amin’ izany manetre tena ambanin’ ny tàna-maherin’ Andriamanitra, mba hanandratany anareo amin’ ny fotoan’ andro;
Humble your selues therefore vnder the mightie hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.
7 ary apetraho aminy ny fanahianareo rehetra; fa Izy no miahy anareo.
Cast all your care on him: for he careth for you.
8 Mahonòna tena, miambena: fa ny devoly fahavalonareo mandehandeha tahaka ny liona mierona mitady izay harapany;
Be sober, and watch: for your aduersarie the deuil as a roaring lyon walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure:
9 tohero izy, ka miorena tsara amin’ ny finoana ianareo, satria fantatrareo fa izany fahoriana izany dia manjo ny rahalahinareo rehetra eran’ izao tontolo izao.
Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren which are in the world.
10 Ary Andriamanitry ny fahasoavana rehetra, Izay efa niantso anareo ho any amin’ ny voninahiny mandrakizay ao amin’ i Kristy, rehefa niaritra fahoriana vetivety ianareo, dia Izy no hahatanteraka sy hampiorina ary hampitoetra anareo. (aiōnios g166)
And the God of all grace, which hath called vs vnto his eternall glory by Christ Iesus, after that ye haue suffered a litle, make you perfite, confirme, strengthen and stablish you. (aiōnios g166)
To him be glory and dominion for euer and euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Efa manoratra teny fohifohy ho aminareo aho hampitondraina an’ i Silasy, izay ataoko ho rahalahy mahatoky, dia mananatra anareo aho ka manambara fa izany no tena fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra, ― tomoera tsara amin’ izany ianareo.
By Syluanus a faithfull brother vnto you, as I suppose, haue I written briefly, exhorting and testifying how that this is the true grace of God, wherein ye stand.
13 Izay any Babylona, voafidy ho namanareo, manao veloma anareo, ary Marka zanako koa.
The Church that is at Babylon elected together with you, saluteth you, and Marcus my sonne.
14 Mifanaova veloma amin’ ny fanoroham-pitiavana. Ho aminareo rehetra izay ao amin’ i Kristy anie ny fiadanana.
Greete yee one another with the kisse of loue. Peace be with you all which are in Christ Iesus, Amen.
