१ पत्रुस 4
1 यसैकारण, जसरी ख्रीष्टले शरीरमा कष्ट भोग्नुभयो, तिमीहरूले पनि त्यस्तै उद्देश्य धारण गर । जसले शरीरमा कष्ट भोगेको छ उसले पाप गर्न छोडेको हुन्छ ।
Forasmuch then as Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
2 यो व्यक्तिले अब उसो मानवीय अभिलाषामा होइन, तर आफ्नो बाँकी जीवन परमेश्वरको इच्छाको निम्ति जिउँछ ।
that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for human desires, but for the will of God.
3 किनकि अन्यजातिले इच्छा गरेजस्तो कामुकता, कुवासना, मद्यपान, मोजमज्जा, पियक्कडपन, असभ्य भोजहरू अनि घृणित मूर्तिपूजाहरूमा धेरै समय खर्च भइसकेको छ ।
For enough time in the past has been spent doing the will of the unbelievers, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.
4 तिमीहरू यी कुरामा तिनीहरूसँग सहमत नभएको कारण तिनीहरू अचम्म मान्छन् । त्यसैले, तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूको बारेमा खराब कुरा गर्छन् ।
They think it is strange that you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, blaspheming:
5 तिनीहरूले जीवित र मरेकाहरूको न्याय गर्न तयार हुनुहुनेलाई लेखा दिनेछन् ।
who will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 त्यसैले, मरिसकेकाहरूलाई यो वचन प्रचारिएको थियो । शरीरमा मानिसको रूपमा तिनीहरूको न्याय गरिएको भए तापनि आत्मामा तिनीहरू परमेश्वरअनुसार जिऊन् ।
For this reason also the Good News was preached to those who are now dead, that they might be judged according to man in the flesh, but might live according to God in the Spirit.
7 सबै कुराको अन्त्य आउँदै छ । त्यसैले, आफ्नो मन ठिक ठाउँमा लगाओ र तिमीहरूका प्रार्थनाको खातिर आफ्नो विचारमा सचेत रहो ।
But the end of all things is near. Therefore be serious and disciplined in your prayers.
8 सबै कुराभन्दा बढी एक-अर्कालाई उत्कट प्रेम गर, किनकि प्रेमले एक-अर्काको दोष पत्ता लगाउँदैन ।
Above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.
9 गनगन नगरी एक-अर्काको अतिथि सत्कार गर,
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
10 जसरी तिमीहरू हरेकले वरदान पाएका छौ । परमेश्वरले दिनुभएका सित्तैँका वरदानहरू उहाँको असल भण्डारेजस्तै एक-अर्काको सेवाको लागि प्रयोग गर ।
As each has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
11 यदि कोही बोल्छ भने उसले परमेश्वरको मुखबाट निस्केको कुरा बोलोस्; यदि कसैले सेवा गर्छ भने उसले परमेश्वरले दिनुहुने शक्तिमा गरोस्, ताकि सबै कुरामा ख्रीष्टद्वारा परमेश्वर महिमित हुनुभएको होस् । महिमा र शक्ति सदासर्वदा उहाँकै हुन् । आमेन । (aiōn g165)
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)
12 प्रिय हो, तिमीहरूलाई जाँच गर्नको निम्ति कुनै अग्निमय परीक्षा आइपरेमा त्यसलाई अनौठो नसम्झ ।
Beloved, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you, to test you, as though a strange thing happened to you.
13 तर जति तिमीहरू ख्रीष्टको दुःख भोग्छौ, त्यति रमाओ ताकि उहाँको महिमा प्रकट हुँदा तिमीहरू पनि आनन्द मनाउन सक्नेछौँ ।
But because you are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.
14 तिमीहरू ख्रीष्टको नाउँको कारण अपमानित भयौ भने तिमीहरू धन्यका हौ, किनकि महिमाका आत्मा र परमेश्वरका आत्मा तिमीहरूमाथि रहनुहुन्छ ।
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.
15 तर तिमीहरू कसैले पनि हत्यारा, चोर, खराबी गर्ने अथवा अर्काको कुरामा हात हाल्ने व्यक्तिको रूपमा दुःख भोग्नु नपरोस् ।
For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler.
16 तरै पनि ख्रीष्टियान भएको कारणले कसैले पीडा भोग्छ भने उसले लाज नमानोस्, तर त्यही नाममा परमेश्वरको महिमा गरोस् ।
But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this name.
17 किनकि यो परमेश्वरको परिवारबाट न्याय सुरु हुने समय हो । अनि यदि न्याय हामीबाट सुरु हुन्छ भने, परमेश्वरको वचन नमान्नेको अवस्था कस्तो होला?
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins first with us, what will happen to those who do not obey the Good News of God?
18 अनि “धर्मी जनको उद्धारचाहिँ उसको कठिनाइले हुन्छ भने, अधर्मी र पापीको अवस्था के होला?”
And "If the righteous is delivered with difficulty, where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"
19 त्यसैले परमेश्वरको इच्छामा दुःख भोग्नेहरूले असल काम गर्दै आफ्नो आत्मा सृष्टिकर्तालाई सुम्पून् ।
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.
