1 OPetro 4
1 Nantele amwene O Kilisti ayembele nubele, hwikwatizi eshi zijilo zyazili nanshizila. Zyayembele ashilile obele ayepene ne mbibhi.
Therefore, since Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same mentality, because whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,
2 Omtu ono sagahwedelela nantele olwizyo nenyonyo ezyebele, shasongwelwe Ongolobhe, husiku zyakwe zyazisangeye.
so as to live his remaining time in the flesh no longer for the evil desires of men, but for the will of God.
3 zyazibhalile ziyiye hulenganye embombo zyasaga bhaputa bhahaza abhombe embibhi, nebibhi omweezi, olyavi eshikulukulu eshabha sebhaputa nezwa huzimu zyuzivisya.
For we have spent enough of our lives doing what the Gentiles like to do, walking in sensual indulgences, evil desires, excesses of wine, revelries, drinking bouts, and illicit idolatries.
4 Bhasebha eje pamhwoyefwa abhombe embombo ne pamo nabho enya bhayanga amabhibhi huli mwe.
They are surprised when you do not run with them into the same flood of debauchery, so they revile you.
5 Bhafumye ebazye hwamwene yalihani alonje bhabhali bhomi na bhafwe.
But they will give an account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 Huje endombelo zyaga ngwilwe nabhene bhabhafwye hata nkashile bhali bhalongwilwe alongane nombele gwabho noshi abhatu aje bhawezye akhale alingane no Ngolobhi no mpepo.
For this is the reason the gospel was preached even to the dead, so that, though they have been judged in the flesh as men are, they might live in the spirit as God does.
7 Humalezwo owembombo zyoti uhwenza, nantele mubhanje nenjele zyazili shiza, nantele mubhanje nahatu ahiza hahali neshiputo shenyu.
The end of all things has drawn near. Therefore be alert and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers.
8 Sazisele anongwa zyoti mubhe nadigane hulugano oolwa Mtuomo alenganeje olugano saluhwaza akwikule amabhibhi agabhanje.
Above all, maintain a deep love for one another, because love will cover a multitude of sins.
9 Lanji opezi hwamtu omo nantele muganje anungunishe.
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
10 Nashi omo owenyo shahambilile eshi paji, itumilinashahwavwane nashi abhemelezi abhiza ashipaji eshinji zyazifumile wene no Ngolobhi.
As each of you has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 Nashi omtu nkagavwe ebhanje nashi enguvu zya pehwilwa no Ngolobhi, eshi humbombo zyoti Ongolobhi ayande ahwiozvye ashelele oYesu Kilisti otutumu ne nguvu zili na mwene wila wila. Amina (aiōn g165)
If anyone speaks, he should do so as one who speaks the oracles of God; if anyone serves, he should do so as one who serves from strength as God supplies it, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Mwaganwi muganjebhazye endengo zyasaga obhalenjele nashi ahatu aeshijenyi hahtumilanga hafumila hulimwi.
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial that has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing were happening to you.
13 Nantele kadili shammanya apate ahwele we humayemba gakilisti. Songwaji shisangwaji nantele owigule owa otutumu wakwe.
But insofar as you share in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice, so that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.
14 Nkashememli gwilwe hitawa lwa Kilisti, osailwe hulengane no mpepo awangolobhi akhaka pamwanya palimwe.
If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.
15 Nantele agajibhe wawonti yayemba nashi obudi, omwibhayabhomba embimbi nantele ahwibhovye nembombo ezaabhaje.
None of you should suffer as a murderer, thief, evildoer, or meddler,
16 Nantele nkashele amtu ayemba nashi Okilisti, ganje lole esoni nantele tutumele Ongolobhi hwitawa elyo.
but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he should not be ashamed, but should glorify God in this matter.
17 Nantele esiku zifishile hulongwe ahwandile mungumba eyaNgolobhi. Nkashele ehwandila hulitii ehwandila hulitii ehaibhawe hwabhala bha sebhahwogopa idombelelo zwa Ngolobhi?
For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God, and if it begins first with us, what will be the outcome for those who are disobedient to the gospel of God?
18 Nkashe huwali afwolwa ashilile amamkhame shaibhawele hwantu waswe wilwoliowe mbibhi?”
And, “If the righteous man is scarcely saved, what will become of the ungodly man and sinner?”
19 Bhonti bhaghayemba afumilane no Ngolobhi khabhishe omoyo gobho hwa bhombi omwiza ohubhabho mbanje amiza.
Therefore, those who suffer according to the will of God should entrust their souls to him as their faithful Creator while doing what is good.
