1 Phexros 1
1 Phexros ergamaa Yesuus Kiristoos irraa, Gara filatamtoota Phonxoos, Galaatiyaa, Qaphadooqiyaa, Asiyaa fi Biitaaniyaa keessa bibittinnaaʼan
Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect who are sojourners of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 kanneen akka beekumsa Waaqa Abbaatti, karaa hojii qulqulleessuu Hafuuraatiin, akka Yesuus Kiristoosiif ajajamanii fi akka dhiigni isaa isaanitti facaafamuuf filatamaniitti: Ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa baayʼatu.
according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
3 Waaqaa fi Abbaan Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos haa eebbifamu! Inni araara isaa guddaa sanaan, warra duʼan keessaa kaʼuu Yesuus Kiristoosiin abdii jiraataadhaaf lammata nu dhalche;
Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy begat us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 akkasumas dhaala hin badne, kan hin xuroofne yookaan hin geeddaramnetti nu galche; dhaalli kunis samii keessa isinii kaaʼameera;
unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 isin warra karaa amantiitiin hamma fayyina bara dhumaatti mulʼachuudhaaf qophaaʼe sanaatti humna Waaqaatiin eegamtanii dha.
who by the power of God are guarded through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 Isinis yoo amma yeroo gabaabaaf qorumsa gosa garaa garaa keessa darbuu qabaattan iyyuu waan kanaan akka malee gammaddan.
Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, ye have been put to grief in manifold temptations,
7 Wanni kunis akka amantiin keessan kan warqee yoo ibiddaan qulqulleeffame iyyuu badu sana caalu sun dhugaa taʼuun isaa mirkaneeffamee, yeroo itti Yesuus Kiristoos mulʼatutti galata, ulfinaa fi kabaja fiduuf taʼe.
that the proof of your faith, [being] more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, might be found unto praise and glory and honour at the revelation of Jesus Christ:
8 Isin utuu isa hin argin isa jaallattu; amma yoo isa arguu baattan iyyuu isatti amantu; gammachuu ibsamuu hin dandeenyee fi ulfina qabeessaanis guutamtaniirtu;
whom not having seen ye love; on whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 isin buʼaa amantii keessanii jechuunis fayyina lubbuu keessanii argachaa jirtuutii.
receiving the end of your faith, [even] the salvation of [your] souls.
10 Raajonni waaʼee ayyaana isinii kennamuuf jiru sanaa dubbatan sun itti jabaatanii waaʼee fayyina kanaa qorachaa, iyyaafachaas turan;
Concerning which salvation the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that [should come] unto you:
11 isaanis yommuu Hafuurri Kiristoos inni isaan keessa ture sun waaʼee dhiphina Kiristoosiitii fi waaʼee ulfina itti aanu sanaa duraan dursee dubbatetti yoomii fi haala akkamii keessa akka taʼu beekuuf yaalaa turan.
searching what [time] or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did point unto, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow them.
12 Namoonni Hafuura Qulqulluu isa samiidhaa ergameen wangeela isinitti lallaban sun waan amma isinitti himan keessatti utuu ofii isaanii hin taʼin isin akka tajaajilan ifa ni taʼeef; waan kana ergamoonni iyyuu gad fageenyaan arguu hawwu.
To whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto you, did they minister these things, which now have been announced unto you through them that preached the gospel unto you by the Holy Ghost sent forth from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
13 Kanaafuu mudhii qalbii keessanii hidhadhaa; warra of qaban taʼaa; abdii keessanis guutumaan guutuutti ayyaana yeroo Yesuus Kiristoos mulʼatutti isinii kennamu sana irra kaaʼadhaa.
Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
14 Akka ijoollee ajajamanii taʼaa malee hawwii hamaa bara wallaalummaa keessanii sana duukaa hin buʼinaa.
as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in [the time of] your ignorance:
15 Qooda kanaa akkuma inni isin waame sun qulqulluu taʼe, isinis waan hojjetan hundumaan qulqulloota taʼaa;
but like as he which called you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living;
16 “Ani qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulloota taʼaa” jedhamee barreeffameeraatii.
because it is written, Ye shall be holy; for I am holy.
17 Isin erga isa utuu wal hin caalchisin nama hunda akkuma hojii isaatti itti muru sana “Abbaa” jettanii waammattanii bara keessummummaa keessan isa sodaachaa jiraadhaa.
And if ye call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to each man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:
18 Isin akka jireenya faayidaa hin qabne kan abbootii keessan irraa dhaaltan irraa waan baduu dandaʼu kan akka meetiitii fi warqeetiin hin furamin beektuutii.
knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;
19 Garuu dhiiga gatii guddaa qabu, dhiiga Kiristoos jechuunis hoolaa mudaa yookaan hanqina hin qabne sanaatiin furamtaniirtu.
but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot, [even the blood] of Christ:
20 Inni utuu addunyaan hin uumamin duraan dursee beekame; garuu isiniif jedhee bara dhumaa kana keessa mulʼate.
who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of the times for your sake,
21 Isinis karaa isaatiin Waaqa warra duʼan keessaa isa kaasee ulfina isaaf kenne sanatti amantu; kunis akka amantii fi abdiin keessan Waaqayyo taʼuuf.
who through him are believers in God, which raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 Egaa isin waan akka obboloota keessaniif jaalala dhugaa qabaattaniif jettanii dhugaadhaaf ajajamuun of qulqulleessitaniif, cimsaatii garaa qulqulluudhaan wal jaalladhaa.
Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently:
23 Isin karaa dubbii Waaqaa isa jiraatuu fi cimee dhaabatu sanaatiin sanyii hin badne irraa lammata dhalattan malee sanyii badu irraa miti. (aiōn g165)
having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. (aiōn g165)
24 “Foon hundi akkuma margaa ti; ulfinni isaa hundis akkuma daraaraa margaa ti; margi ni coollaga; daraaraanis ni harcaʼa;
For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower falleth:
