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 sojourners of the Dispersion of 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, through 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 is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one having according to his great mercy begotten us again into a living hope through 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 never fading, having been kept in the heavens unto you,
5 isin warra karaa amantiitiin hamma fayyina bara dhumaatti mulʼachuudhaaf qophaaʼe sanaatti humna Waaqaatiin eegamtanii dha.
who are preserved by the power of God through faith unto the 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.
In whom you rejoice, if however it is needful, being grieved a little while among manifold temptations: in order
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 trial of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, however being tried by the fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor in 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 you not seeing, love with divine love; on whom, not looking, but believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
9 isin buʼaa amantii keessanii jechuunis fayyina lubbuu keessanii argachaa jirtuutii.
receiving the end of your faith, 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, who prophesied concerning the grace towards you, sought out and investigated,
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 into what, or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ who was in them, witnessing the sufferings towards Christ, and the glories after these, did show:
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, because they were ministering not these things for themselves, but for you, which are now proclaimed unto you by those who preach to you the gospel with the Holy Ghost having been sent from heaven; into which things the angels desire to look down.
13 Kanaafuu mudhii qalbii keessanii hidhadhaa; warra of qaban taʼaa; abdii keessanis guutumaan guutuutti ayyaana yeroo Yesuus Kiristoos mulʼatutti isinii kennamu sana irra kaaʼadhaa.
Therefore having girded up the loins of your minds, being perfectly sober, hope unto the grace which is conferred on you in 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 being fashioned after your former lusts in ignorance:
15 Qooda kanaa akkuma inni isin waame sun qulqulluu taʼe, isinis waan hojjetan hundumaan qulqulloota taʼaa;
but according to the Holy One who has called you. Be ye also holy in all your deportment;
16 “Ani qulqulluudhaatii isinis qulqulloota taʼaa” jedhamee barreeffameeraatii.
because it has been written, Ye shall be holy; because 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 you call upon the Father, the One judging without respect of persons according to the work of each, pass the time of your sojourn with 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 you have been redeemed from your depraved character transmitted from your ancestors, not by corruptible things, silver or gold,
19 Garuu dhiiga gatii guddaa qabu, dhiiga Kiristoos jechuunis hoolaa mudaa yookaan hanqina hin qabne sanaatiin furamtaniirtu.
but by the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and spotless:
20 Inni utuu addunyaan hin uumamin duraan dursee beekame; garuu isiniif jedhee bara dhumaa kana keessa mulʼate.
foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but having been made manifest at the last of the times for the sake of you,
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 faithful toward God, who raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope are toward God.
22 Egaa isin waan akka obboloota keessaniif jaalala dhugaa qabaattaniif jettanii dhugaadhaaf ajajamuun of qulqulleessitaniif, cimsaatii garaa qulqulluudhaan wal jaalladhaa.
Having purified your souls through obedience of the truth unto unhypocritical, brotherly love, fervently from the heart love one another with divine love:
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 incorruptible, through the word of God, who lives and abides. (aiōn g165)
24 “Foon hundi akkuma margaa ti; ulfinni isaa hundis akkuma daraaraa margaa ti; margi ni coollaga; daraaraanis ni harcaʼa;
Therefore all flesh is as grass, and all its glory as the flower of grass: the grass is withered, and the flower fell off;
