Petrus I 1
1 IET ngai Petrus wanporon en Iesus Kristus amen ong me pilipildar ren me kaikairu pakasar lang Pontus, Kalesia, Kapadosien, Asien o Pitinien.
Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,
2 Me pilipildar pan kupur en Kot Sam, ap kasaraui kila Ngen, pwen peik o makelekeleda pan ntan Iesus Kristus. Mak o popol en rok re omail!
according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.
3 Kaping ong Kot, o Sam en Kaun patail Iesus Kristus, me kotin kaipwi kap kitail ong kaporopor maur, pweki a kalangan lapalap pan Iesus Kristus a iasadar sang ren me melar akan,
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 Ong soso eu, me sota pan dukedi o so samin, o so mongedi, me nekinekid ong komail nanlang.
to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,
5 Komail me pakolekoleki mana en Kot ni poson ong maur potopot, me pan sansaldo ni imwin ran akan.
who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 Iran met komail kin peren kida, murin omail insensuedeki songesong kai ansau motomot, ma i duen kupur a.
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials,
7 Pwe omail poson en diarokada ni pung o, pan kasampwal sang kold sor, a me kin diarok kida kisiniai, men kaping, o lingan, o wau, ni en Iesus Kristus a pan sansaleda.
that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes, even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ—
8 Me komail sota kilanger, ari so, komail kin pok ong i, o komail kin poson i, me komail sota kin kilang ansau wet, a i me komail kin peren kida peren laud kaualapia.
whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy that is unspeakable and full of glory,
9 I me pan kare ong komail imwin omail poson, iei dorelan ngen omail.
receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
10 Iei maur o, me saukop oko raparapaki o kalekalelapok, me kokop kida mak, me pan pwara dong komail.
Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently. They prophesied of the grace that would come to you,
11 O re raparapaki, iad ansau o duen ansau me Ngen en Kristus me kotikot re’rail, kotin kasaledar, o me kotin kokopkido kamekam en Kristus o a lingan, me mi muri.
searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them pointed to when he predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow them.
12 A pakair pwara dong irail, kaidin pwen papa pein irail, a komail, rap kalok ong komail er sang ren me padaki ong komail rongamau ki Ngen saraui, me pakadarado sang nanlang, me pil tounlang kan inong iong kilang.
To them it was revealed that they served not themselves, but you, in these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.
13 I me komail en katengedi longelonge en ngen omail. Komail masamasan o kaporoporeki melel mak en Kot, me pan wisike dong komail ni en Iesus Kristus a pan sansaleda.
Therefore prepare your minds for action. Be sober, and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ—
14 Komail dueta seri en peik kan, komail der paroki ong inong sued en mas o, me mi re omail ni ansaun omail rotorot.
as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,
15 A duen i, me kotin molipe komail er, me saraui, iduen komail en pil saraui ni song en wiawia karos.
but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior,
16 Pwe a intingidier: Komail en saraui, pwe ngai me saraui.
because it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”
17 O ma komail pan kapakap ong Sam, me sota kotin lipilipil aramas amen, pwe a pan kotin kadeikada duen dodok en amen amen, komail ari kekeide ki ni masak arain omail kaikairu nin sappa et.
If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man’s work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear,
18 Pwe komail asa, kaidin kapwa sor: Silper de kold, me komail kamaio kila sang omail dadaurata kaudok o, me men kaua padokedi ong komail,
knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things like silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,
19 A ki ntan Kristus kasampwal dueta sippul amen, me so samin o so muaimuai.
but with precious blood, as of a lamb without blemish or spot, the blood of Christ,
20 Me kileledier mon sappa pasonedier, ap sansaleda ni imwin ran akan pweki komail.
who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in this last age for your sake,
21 Komail me poson Kot ki i, me Kot kotin kaiasadar sang ren me melar akan, ap kotin kalinganada i, pwe komail en poson o kaporoporeki Kot.
who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.
22 O komail kamakelekeleki ngen omail ni peik o melel, pwen pokepoke melel ri omail akan. Komail ari tengeteng limpok pena sang mongiong omail makelekel.
Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,
23 Dueta ir, me ip sapal, kaidin sang ni wa mor, a sang ni me somor, iet: Sang nan masan maur en Kot, me pan duedueta. (aiōn g165)
having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever. (aiōn g165)
24 Pwe uduk karos me rasong rä, o ar lingan karos me rasong masal en wan rä. Rä o mongidier o masal en wan rä moredier.
For, “All flesh is like grass, and all of man’s glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;
