1 Butros 2
1 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed iska wada fogeeya xumaan oo dhan, iyo khiyaano oo dhan, iyo labawejiilenimo, iyo hinaaso, iyo cay oo dhan,
So then, laying aside all malignity—even all deceit and play-actings and envies, yes all malicious speaking—
2 oo sida carruur dhallaan ah u jeclaada caanaha ruuxa ee saafiga ah, si aad ugu kortaan xagga badbaadada,
crave the pure spiritual ‘milk’, like newborn babies do, so that by it you may grow into salvation,
3 haddii aad dhadhamiseen in Rabbigu raxmad leeyahay,
if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is benevolent.
4 kaas oo aad u imanaysaan, oo ah dhagax nool, oo dadku diiday, laakiin xagga Ilaah laga doortay oo qaali ah.
Coming to Him, a living stone—rejected indeed by men but chosen by God, precious—
5 Idinkuna sida dhagaxyo noolnool ayaa waxaa laydinka dhisayaa guri ruux ah inaad ahaataan wadaaddo quduus ah si aad xagga ruuxa uga bixisaan allabariyo uu Ilaah ku aqbalo Ciise Masiix.
you also, as living stones, are being built into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
6 Maxaa yeelay, waxaa Qorniinku leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaan Siyoon dhex dhigayaa dhagax geeseed oo weyn, oo la doortay, oo qaali ah, Oo kii isaga rumaystaa ma ceeboobi doono.
That is why the Scripture contains: “Attention, I am laying in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, precious, and the one who rests his trust upon Him will absolutely not be humiliated.”
7 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed qaalinimada waxaa leh idinkoo ah kuwa rumaysan, laakiinse xagga kuwa aan rumaysnayn, Dhagaxii kuwa wax dhisa ay diideen, Wuxuu noqday madaxa rukunka;
So then, this recompense is for you who believe, but to those who disobey, “the stone that the builders rejected is just the one that became the chief cornerstone,”
8 iyo Dhagax lagu turunturoodo oo ah dhadhaab lagu xumaado; waayo, waxay ku turunturoodaan ereyga, maxaa yeelay, ma addeecsana; taas oo ah wixii loo xugmay.
also “a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”; being disobedient to the Word, they stumble, to which, indeed, they were appointed.
9 Laakiinse idinku waxaad tihiin jinsi la doortay, iyo wadaaddada boqorka, iyo quruun quduus ah, iyo dad Ilaah iska leeyahay, inaad ogeysiisaan wanaagga kan gudcurka idiinka yeedhay oo idiinku yeedhay xagga nuurkiisa yaabka leh.
But you are a chosen family, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a private-property people, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
10 Idinku waagii hore dad ma aydin ahayn, laakiinse haatan waxaad tihiin dadka Ilaah, idinku markii hore naxariis ma aydin helin, laakiinse haatan naxariis baad hesheen.
who formerly were not a people but now are God's people, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
11 Gacaliyayaalow, waxaan idiin baryayaa, idinkoo ah sidii qariib iyo dad sodcaal ah, inaad ka fogaataan damacyada jidhka oo nafta la dagaallama.
Dear ones, I urge you to abstain from the lusts of the flesh, that war against the soul,
12 Quruumaha dhexdooda dabiicad wanaagsan ku dhaqma, in meeshii ay wax xun idinkaga sheegi lahaayeen sidii idinkoo ah kuwo xumaan fala, ay shuqulladiinna wanaagsan oo ay arkaan Ilaah ku ammaanaan maalinta booqashada.
keeping your way of life among the nations praiseworthy (you being foreigners and sojourners), so that wherein they speak against you as evildoers, in spite of the praiseworthy deeds they have observed, they may glorify God in the day of visitation.
13 Rabbiga daraaddiis u addeeca amar kasta oo dadka, ama ha ahaado boqorka ka sarreeya dadka oo dhan,
Therefore subordinate yourselves to every human institution because of the Lord, whether to a king, as being in authority,
14 amase taliyayaasha uu isagu u soo diray inay ka aargutaan kuwa xumaanta sameeya oo ay ammaanaan kuwa samaanta fala.
or to governors, as being sent by him, both for punishment of evildoers and for praise of good-doers.
15 Waayo, Ilaah doonistiisu waxa weeye inaad samafalid ku aamusiisaan jaahilnimada nacasyada,
Because such is the will of God, to silence the ignorance of foolish people by doing good:
16 idinkoo xor ah oo aan xorriyaddiinna ugu isticmaalayn sidii jubbad aad xumaanta ku qarisaan, laakiinse sidii idinkoo ah addoommo Ilaah.
as free (not using the freedom as a cover for evil), yet as slaves of God.
17 Dadka oo dhan maamuusa, walaalahana jeclaada, Ilaahna ka cabsada, oo boqorka ciseeya.
Respect everyone; love the brotherhood; fear God; honor the king.
18 Midiidinyadow, ka cabsada oo ka dambeeya sayidyadiinna, mana aha kuwa wanaagsan oo idiin roon oo keliya, laakiinse xataa kuwa qalloocan.
Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unscrupulous.
19 Waayo, tanu waa wax loo bogo haddii nin niyada xagga Ilaah uga adkaysto dhibaatooyinka, isagoo xaqdarro ku xanuunsanaya.
For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God someone endures grief, suffering unjustly.
20 Markii aad dembaabtaan, oo laydin garaaco, haddii aad u dulqaadataan, maxay ammaan leedahay? Laakiinse markaad wanaag fashaan oo aad xanuunsataan, haddii aad u dulqaadataan, taasu waa wax Ilaah u bogo.
For what credit is it if upon sinning and being beaten you endure patiently? But if upon doing good and suffering you endure patiently, this is commendable before God.
21 Waayo, taasu waa wixii laydiinku yeedhay, maxaa yeelay, Masiix baa idiin xanuunsaday, oo wuxuu idinkaga tegey masaal inaad tallaabooyinkiisa raacdaan.
Now you have been called to this, really, because Christ also suffered in our behalf, leaving you an example that you should follow in His footsteps:
22 Isagu ma uu dembaabin, khiyaanona afkiisa lagama helin.
who did not commit sin, neither was deceit found in His mouth;
23 Oo isagu markii la caayay, dadkii caayay cay uma uu celin. Markuu xanuunsadayna ninna ma uu cabsiin, laakiinse wuxuu isu dhiibay kan xaqnimada wax ku xukuma.
who being reviled did not revile in return, suffering did not threaten but committed it to Him who judges righteously;
24 Oo isagu dembiyadeennii wuxuu ku qaaday jidhkiisii geedka saarnaa, si innagoo dembi kala dhimannay aynu xaqnimo ugu noolaanno. Waxaad ku bogsateen xariijimihii karbaashiddiisii.
who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, so that we, having died to those sins, might live for the righteousness; by whose wound you were healed.
25 Waayo, waxaad u ambanayseen sida ido oo kale, laakiinse haatan waxaad u soo noqoteen Adhijirka iyo Hoggaamiyaha naftiinna.
Yes, you were like straying sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of our souls.
