1 Petera 1
1 I Petera, Firàhe’ Iesoà Norizañey, Ho amo mañialo naparaitake e Ponto, e Galate, e Kapadokia, e Asia vaho e Bitinia añeo, jinoboñe
Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered through Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 ami’ty fisafirin’ Añahare Rae, navahe’ i Arofoy, ty amy nivohora’ areo am’ Iesoà Norizañey naho fa nifitsezan-dio’e: añonjoñan-kasoa naho hanintsiñe.
chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace and peace be multiplied to you.
3 Andriañeñe t’i Andrianañahare, Rae’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey! Ie am-piferenaiñañe jabajaba, ro nampiareñe antika fañindroe’e ho am-pitamàñe veloñe amy fitroara’ Iesoà Norizañey an-kavilasiy,
Blessed be God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his abundant mercy, begot us again into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 ho amy lova tsy modo, tsy ho komatrào, tsy hipoa-mavo, nihalankañeñe andikerañe aoy ho anahareo
to an inheritance imperishable, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you,
5 arovañe ami’ty haozaran’ Añahare ami’ty fatokisañe ho amy rombake haboak’ an-tsa honka’ey.
who are guarded by the power of God through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time;
6 Aa le irebeho, ndra t’ie loviloviem-pitsohañe ankafankafa hey amy ipaiañe azey,
wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a short time, if need be, made sorrowful by manifold trials,
7 hamente ty fatokisa’ areo sarotse te ami’ty volamena mete momoke, naho nitsoheñe añ’ afo handrendrehañe t’ie mandrenge naho misabo vaho miàsy ami’ty fiboahañe Iesoà Norizañey.
that the proof of your faith, much more precious than gold which perisheth, but is tried with fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the manifestation of Jesus Christ;
8 Ikokoa’ areo ndra te mbe tsy niisake mbore tsy isake heike, f’ie atokisa’o naho irebeha’o an-kaehake tsy lefe talilieñe vaho lifots’ engeñe,
whom, having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory,
9 t’ie mandrambe ty firefeam-patokisa’ areo, ty fandrombaham-piaiñe.
receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 I fatokisañey, le nitsoeha’ o mpitokio, nitsikaraha’ o nitoky i hasoa nivotrak’ ama’ areoio,
Concerning which salvation the prophets sought earnestly and searched earnestly, who prophesied of the grace that was to come to you;
11 le nimanea’ iareo pay te ia naho an-tsa inoñe ty nentoe’ i Arofo’ i Norizañeiy ty an-tro’ iareo ao, ie nitaroñe ty falovilovia’ i Norizañey naho i engeñe hanonjohiy.
searching what or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them signified, when it testified beforehand the sufferings to come upon Christ, and the glories that were to follow;
12 Naboak’ am’ iareo te tsy iereo fa itika ty nitoroña’ iareo o raha nitsarae’ o nitaroñe i talili-soay ama’ areo henaneo amy Arofo Masiñe niraheñe boak’ an-dindiñe añeio—raha salalae’ o anjelio hotsohotsoeñe.
to whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you, they were ministering the things, which have now been announced to you by them that have brought the glad tidings to you by the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
13 Aa le diaño ty toham-betsevetse’ areo hifanehake, le ilozoho filieram-batañe, vaho ifaharo fitamañe ty hasoa hatolotse anahareo ami’ty fiboahañe Iesoà Norizañey,
Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope undoubtingly for the grace that is to be brought to you at the manifestation of Jesus Christ;
14 hoe amory mete avohotse, tsy mitsikombe o hadrao raty nañaveloa’ areo am-paha-bahimoañeo.
as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts in your ignorance;
15 Aa kanao masiñe i Nikanjy anahareoy le miavaha ka amo fañaveloañe iabio;
but as he who called you is holy, be ye also holy in all your conduct;
16 fa hoe ty pinatetse: Miavaha amy te masin-dRaho.
because it is written, “Ye shall be holy, for I am holy.”
17 Aa naho kanjie’ areo t’i Rae, ie tsy mirihy fe izaka’e songa amy fitoloña’ey, le mañaveloa am-pañeveñañe ami’ty fañialoa’ areo atoy,
And if ye call him Father who without respect of persons judgeth according to each one's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear;
18 fohiñe te tsy o raha mora momokeo manahake o volafotio ndra o volamenao ty nijebañe anahareo amy haveloñe kòake linova’ areo aman-droae’ areoy,
knowing that not with perishable things, silver or gold, were ye redeemed from your vain manner of life received by tradition from your fathers,
19 fa ty lio sarots’ i anak’ añondriy, i Norizañey, tsy aman-kandra tsy aman-kìla,
but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot;
20 ie norizañe taolo’ ty nampijadoñañe ty voatse toiy, fe naboake ama’ areo an-tsan-konka’e zao.
who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for you,
21 Ie ty iatoa’ areo aman’ Añahare nampivañon-ko veloñe aze naho toe nitolora’e engeñe, soa te ho aman’ Añahare ty fatokisañe naho ty fitamà’ areo.
who through him have faith in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
22 Aa kanao, nañefe-batañe amy t’ie nivohotse ami’ty hatò amy Arofoy hikoko longo tsy mihaboke, le imaneo koko an-troke hiringiri’e,
Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth unto unfeigned brotherly love, love one another from the heart, fervently;
23 amy t’ie nisamaheñe fañindroe’e, tsy an-tabiry mora momoke, fa amo tsy momokeo, an-tsaran’ Añahare veloñe tsy mete modo. (aiōn g165)
being born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. (aiōn g165)
24 fa Hoe ahetse ze kila nofotse, manahake o voñen’ ahetseo o hene enge’eo; miheatse o ahetseo, mihintsañe o voñe’eo,
Because, “All flesh is as grass, and all its glory as the flower of grass; the grass withered, and its flower fell off;
