1 Phexros 4
1 Kanaafuu waan Kiristoos foon isaatiin dhiphateef isinis yaaduma akkasiitiin hidhadhaa; sababiin isaas inni fooniin dhiphate cubbuu dhiiseera.
Seeing therefore Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same thought, that he, who hath mortified the flesh, hath ceased from sin;
2 Kanaafuu inni bara jireenya isaa kan foonii isa hafe sana akka fedhii Waaqaatti jiraata malee akka hawwii namaatti hin jiraatu.
that he should no longer live the rest of his time in the flesh according to the lusts of men, but after the will of God.
3 Yeroon isin duraan waan ormoonni hojjechuu jaallatan sana jechuunis jireenya gad dhiisii irratti, hawwii foonii irratti, machii irratti, addaggummaa irratti, gar malee dhuguu fi waaqeffannaa waaqota tolfamoo kan jibbisiisaa taʼe irratti balleessitan sun haa gaʼu.
For the time past of our life is sufficient for us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, walking in lasciviousness, inordinate desires, excess of wine, revellings, drunkenness, and abominable idolatries:
4 Isaanis sababii isin gara jireenya gad dhiisii akkasiitti isaan wajjin hin fiigneef ni dinqisiifatu; isin arrabsus.
in which they think it strange that ye run not with them into the same excess of riot, and therefore speak evil of you:
5 Garuu isaan Waaqa warra jiranii fi warra duʼanitti muruuf qophaaʼe sana duratti deebii ni kennu.
who shall give an account to Him, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 Kanaafuu karaa fooniitiin akkuma namaatti akka isaanitti muramuuf, karaa hafuuraatiin immoo akka Waaqaatti akka jiraataniif wangeelli warra duʼanii jiranitti iyyuu lallabameera.
For to this end was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged indeed according to men in the flesh, but might live according to God in the spirit.
7 Dhumni waan hundaa dhiʼaateera. Kanaaf akka Waaqa kadhachuu dandeessaniif dammaqaa; warra of qabanis taʼaa.
But the end of all things draws nigh: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer:
8 Waan hunda caalaatti jaalala hoʼaa waliif qabaadhaa; jaalalli cubbuu baayʼee dhoksaatii.
having above all things fervent love to each other; for love will cover a multitude of sins.
9 Guungummii malee wal keessumsiisaa.
Be hospitable one to another, without grudging;
10 Tokkoon tokkoon namaa kennaa warra kaan tajaajiluuf argate kam iyyuu akkuma abbaa imaanaa amanamaa kan ayyaana Waaqaa bifa garaa gaaraatiin jiru sanaa tokkootti itti fayyadamuu qaba.
as every one hath received a gift, imparting it to each other, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 Namni dubbatu kam iyyuu akka nama dubbii Waaqaa dubbatuutti haa dubbatu. Namni tajaajilu kam iyyuu akka Waaqni waan hunda keessatti karaa Yesuus Kiristoosiin galateeffamuuf jedhee jabina Waaqni isaaf kenneen haa tajaajilu. Ulfinnii fi humni bara baraa hamma bara baraatti isaaf haa taʼu. Ameen. (aiōn g165)
If any one speak, let it be as declaring the oracles of God: if any one minister, let it be as from the power which God affordeth him: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Yaa michoota jaallatamoo, qorama akka ibiddaa kan amma ittiin dhiphachaa jirtan kana akka waan wanni haaraan isinitti dhufeetti hin dinqisiifatinaa.
Beloved, be not surprised at the fiery trial coming upon you, which is to try you, as if some strange thing befel you:
13 Garuu isin yeroo ulfinni isaa mulʼatutti akka baayʼee gammaddaniif waan dhiphina Kiristoos keessatti qooda fudhattaniif gammadaa.
but rejoice in that ye are partakers in the sufferings of Christ; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may also rejoice with exceeding joy.
14 Yoo maqaa Kiristoosiitiif jettanii arrabsamtan isin eebbifamoo dha; Hafuurri ulfinaatii fi Hafuurri Waaqaa isin irra boqotaatii.
If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the Spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: and though as to them He is blasphemed, yet as to you He is glorified.
15 Isin keessaa namni kam iyyuu akka nama nama ajjeesuutti yookaan akka hattuutti yookaan akka nama yakka hojjetuutti yookaan akka nama dubbii namaa keessa seenuutti hin dhiphatin.
But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as a malefactor, or as an intermeddler with other people's affairs.
16 Garuu namni tokko yoo sababii Kiristaana taʼeef dhiphate maqaa sanaan Waaqa haa galateeffatu malee hin qaanaʼin.
But if any suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God herein.
17 Yeroon itti murtiin mana Waaqaatii jalqabu dhiʼaateeraatii; murtiin kun yoo nurratti jalqaba taʼe dhumni warra wangeela Waaqaatiif hin ajajamnee akkam haa taʼu ree?
For the time is coming when judgement is to begin at the house of God: and if at us first, what will be the end of those that obey not the gospel of God?
18 “Erga qajeeltonni fayyuun rakkisaa taʼe, namni Waaqatti hin bullee fi cubbamaan maal haa taʼu ree?”
And if the righteous be saved with difficulty, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Kanaafuu warri akka fedhii Waaqaatti dhiphatan lubbuu isaanii Uumaa isaanii amanamaa sanatti imaanaa kennatanii waan gaarii hojjechuutti haa fufan.
Wherefore let them, that suffer according to the will of God, commit their souls in well-doing to Him as to a faithful Creator.
