1 Sidaas oo kalena, dumar yahow, nimankiinna ka dambeeya in xataa haddii qaar uusan erayga addeecin ay erayga la'aantiis ku soo hanuunsamaan dabiicadda afooyinkooda,
Ye women likewise, be subject to your own husbands, that if any believe not the word, they may yet without the word be gained over by the deportment of the wives,
2 markay arkaan dabiicaddiinna daahirsan ee cabsida leh.
beholding your chaste conversation in the fear of God.
3 Isqurxintiinnu yaanay ahaan tan dibadda ah, oo ah timo tidcan, iyo dahab layska lulo, amase dhar la xidho,
Whose adorning, let it not be that without, of plaiting the hair, and putting on of gold, or wearing fine clothes;
4 laakiinse ha ahaato inta qalbiga ee qarsoon, taasoo leh wax aan baabba'ayn ee ah ruuxa qabow oo aamusan, kaasoo Ilaah hortiisa qiimo badan ku leh.
but the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
5 Waayo, sidaasoo kalaa waagii hore dumarkii quduuska ahaa oo Ilaah wax ka rajayn jiray ay isu qurxin jireen, iyagoo nimankoodii ka dambeeya.
For so also formerly the holy women, who hoped in God, adorned themselves, being submissive to their husbands; as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him her lord:
6 Saarahba sidaasoo kalay Ibraahim u addeeci jirtay, oo ay ugu yeedhi jirtay, Sayidow; oo idinna haddii aad wanaag fashaan oo aydnaan ka cabsan wixii argaggax leh waxaad tihiin carruurteeda.
whose daughters ye are, if ye do well, and are not terrified with any sinful fear.
7 Nimankow, idinkuna sidaas oo kale afooyinkiinna aqoon kula dhaqma sidii iyagoo ah weel tabardaran, oo iyaga maamuusa sida kuwa idinla dhaxla nimcada nolosha, si aan baryadiinna loo hor joogsan.
Ye husbands likewise, dwell with them according to knowledge, yielding due respect to the wife as the weaker vessel, and as joint-heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
8 Ugu dambaysta, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Kulligiin isku maan ahaada, oo isu jixinjixa, oo sida walaalo isu jeclaada, oo isu naxariista, oo is-hoosaysiiya.
Finally, my beloved, be unanimous, be sympathizing, love as brethren, be compassionate, be courteous:
9 Shar shar ha ka celinina, cayna cay ha ka celinina, laakiinse duco ka celiya, maxaa yeelay, saas aawadeed waxaa laydiinku yeedhay inaad barako dhaxashaan, waayo,
not returning evil for evil, or reproach for reproach: but on the contrary blessing even those that curse you: knowing ye are called unto this, that ye may obtain a blessing.
10 Kii doonaya inuu nolol jeclaado, Oo arko maalmo wanaagsan, Carrabkiisa shar ha ka joojiyo, Bushimihiisana yaanay khiyaano ku hadlin.
"For he that would desire life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile;
11 Oo ha ka leexdo shar, oo wanaag ha sameeyo; Nabad ha doondoono oo ha raacdaysto;
let him turn away from evil, and do good:
12 Waayo, Rabbiga indhihiisu waxay fiiriyaan kuwa xaqa ah, Dhegihiisuna waxay u furan yihiin baryadooda; Laakiin wejiga Rabbigu waa ka gees kuwa sharka sameeya.
let him seek peace, and pursue it: for the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil."
13 Haddii aad waxa wanaagsan ku dadaashaan, bal yaa wax idin yeeli doona?
And who will hurt you, if ye be imitators of Him that is good?
14 Laakiinse xaqnimada daraaddeed haddii aad u xanuunsataan, waad barakaysan tihiin. Haddaba ha ka cabsanina cabsigelintooda, hana welwelina.
But if ye should even suffer for righteousness sake, happy are ye: and therefore be not afraid of their menaces, neither be troubled; but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
15 Rabbiga Masiixa ah qalbiyadiinna quduus kaga dhiga, oo mar kasta diyaar u ahaada inaad u jawaabtaan nin alla ninkii wax idinka weyddiiya sabab ku saabsan rajada aad leedihiin, laakiinse qabow iyo cabsi ugu jawaaba,
and be always ready to answer every one that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and reverence:
16 idinkoo qalbi wanaagsan leh, in markii wax xun laydinka sheego, ay ceeboobaan kuwa caaya dabiicaddiinna wanaagsan ee xagga Masiixa ah.
having a good conscience, that whereas they speak against you as evil-doers, they may be ashamed who calumniate your good conversation in Christ.
17 Waayo, haddii ay doonista Ilaah tahay, waxaa ka wanaagsan inaad samafalidda u xanuunsataan intii aad u xanuunsan lahaydeen sharfalidda.
For it is better (if it be the will of God) to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
18 Maxaa yeelay, Masiixba mar buu u xanuunsaday dembiyada. Isagoo xaq ah ayuu u xanuunsaday kuwa aan xaqa ahayn aawadood inuu inoo keeno Ilaah. Xagga jidhka waa laga dilay, laakiinse xagga ruuxa waa laga nooleeyey.
As Christ also once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust (that He might introduce us to God) being indeed put to death in the flesh, but raised to life by the Spirit:
19 Ruuxii ayuu ku tegey oo wuxuu wacdiyey ruuxyadii xabsigii ku jiray,
by which also He went and preached to the spirits now in prison;
20 kuwaas oo waagii hore ahaa caasiyiin markii dulqaadashada Ilaah ay sugaysay intii maalmihii Nuux oo la diyaarinayay doonnidii, taasoo ay biyihii kaga badbaadeen dhawr qof oo ah siddeed nafood oo keliya.
who of old were disobedient, when the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was preparing; wherein a few, that is eight souls, were saved by water.
21 Biyahaasuna waxay ka dhigan yihiin baabtiiska hadda idinku badbaadiya sarakicidda Ciise Masiix, oo aan ahayn ka fogaynta wasakhda jidhka, laakiinse waxaa weeye baryo ka timaada qalbi wanaagsan oo xagga Ilaah.
The resemblance of which, even baptism, doth also now save us, (not the outward cleansing of filth from the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards God) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
22 Ciise Masiix jannaduu galay oo wuxuu joogaa gacanta midigta oo Ilaah, oo malaa'igaha iyo kuwa amarka leh iyo kuwa xoogga leh oo dhanba waa laga hoosaysiiyey isaga.
who is gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers being made subject to Him.
