< 1 Pita 4 >
1 Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he mamahi ʻa Kalaisi ʻi he sino koeʻuhi ko kitautolu, ke teuteu ʻakimoutolu foki ʻaki ʻae loto pe ko ia: he ko ia kuo mamahi ʻi he sino, kuo tuku ʻe ia ʻae angahala;
基督既然在肉身上受了苦難,你們就應該具備同樣的見識,深信凡在肉身上受苦的,便與罪惡斷絕了關係;
2 Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa moʻui ia ʻi hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho ʻi he sino ki he holi ʻoe tangata, ka ki he finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua.
今後不再順從人性的情慾,而只隨從天主的意願,在肉身內度其餘的時日。
3 He kuo lahi kiate kitautolu ʻae kuonga kuo hili ange ʻo ʻetau moʻui ke fai ai ʻae loto ʻoe kakai Senitaile, ʻaia naʻa tau ʻaʻeva ai ʻi he anga fakalielia, mo e ngaahi holi kovi, mo e inu lahi ʻi he uaine, ʻi he ngaahi kātoanga kai, mo e ngaahi kātoanga inu uaine, mo e fakalielia ʻoe tauhi tamapua:
過去的時候,你們實行外教人的慾望,生活在放蕩、情慾、酗酒、宴樂、狂飲和違法的偶像崇拜中,這已經夠了!
4 ʻAia ʻoku nau ofo ʻi he ʻikai te mou [kei ]feleleʻi ki he maveuveu lahi faufau ko ia, ʻonau lauʻikovi [ʻakimoutolu]:
由於你們不再同他們狂奔於淫蕩的洪流中,他們便引以為怪,遂誹謗你們;
5 ʻAkinautolu ʻe fakamatala kiate ia ʻoku teu ke ne fakamaauʻi ʻae moʻui mo e mate.
但他們要向那已準備審判生死者的主交賬。
6 He ko e meʻa ko eni naʻe malangaʻaki ai ʻae ongoongolelei kiate kinautolu foki kuo mate, koeʻuhi ke fakamaau ʻakinautolu ʻi he kakano, ʻo fakatatau ki he tangata, kae moʻui ʻo fakatatau ki he ʻOtua ʻi he laumālie.
也正是為此,給死者宣講了這福音:他們雖然肉身方面如同人一樣受了懲罰,可是神魂方面卻同天主一起生活。
7 Ka kuo ofi ʻae ngataʻanga ʻoe meʻa kotoa pē: ko ia mou fai fakapotopoto, mo leʻo ke lotu.
萬事的結局以臨近了,所以你們應該慎重,應該醒寤祈禱。
8 Pea sino ʻoe meʻa ke mou maʻu ʻae ʻofa vela ʻiate kimoutolu: he ʻoku ʻufiʻufi ʻe he ʻofa ʻae ngaahi angahala lahi
最重要的是:你們應該彼此熱切相愛,因為愛德遮蓋許多罪過;
9 Pea fai ʻae fefoakiʻaki ʻekimoutolu kiate kimoutolu ʻo taʻelāunga.
要彼此款待,而不出怨言。
10 Pea hangē kuo maʻu taki taha ʻae foaki, ke pehē hono fengāueʻaki ia ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo taau mo e kau tauhi lelei ʻoe ʻofa lahi ʻae ʻOtua.
各人應依照自己所領受的神恩,彼此服事,善做天主各種恩寵的管理員。
11 Kapau ʻoku lea ʻe ha taha, ke fakatatau ia mo e folofola ʻae ʻOtua; kapau ʻoku tauhi ʻe ha taha, ke tatau ia mo e mafai ko ia ʻoku foaki ʻe he ʻOtua: koeʻuhi ke ongoongolelei ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ʻia Sisu Kalaisi, ke ʻiate ia ʻae fakafetaʻi mo e pule ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni. (aiōn )
誰若講道,就該按天主的話講;誰若服事,就該本著天主所賜的德能服事,好叫天主在一切事上,因耶穌基督而受到光榮:願光榮和權能歸於他,至於無窮之世。阿們。 (aiōn )
12 ʻE kāinga, ʻoua te mou ofo ʻi he ʻahiʻahi vela ʻaia ʻe ʻahiʻahi ʻaki ʻakimoutolu, ʻo hangē kuo hoko ha meʻa foʻou kiate kimoutolu:
親愛的,你們不要因為在你們中,有試探你們的烈火而驚異,好像遭遇了一件新奇的事;
13 Kae fiefia, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻomou kau ʻi he ngaahi mamahi ʻa Kalaisi; koeʻuhi ʻoka fakahā mai hono nāunau, te mou fiefia foki ʻaki ʻae fiefia lahi ʻaupito.
反而要喜歡,因為分受了基督的苦難,這樣好使你們在他光榮顯現的時候,也能歡喜踴躍。
14 Kapau ʻoku manukia ʻakimoutolu koeʻuhi ko e huafa ʻo Kalaisi, ʻoku mou monūʻia; he ʻoku nofo kiate kimoutolu ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ongoongolelei mo e ʻOtua: ʻoku lauʻikovi ia ʻekinautolu, kae ongoongolelei ia ʻiate kimoutolu.
如果你們為了基督的名字,受人辱罵,便 是有福的,因為光榮的神,即天主的神,就安息在你們身上。
15 Kaeʻoua naʻa ʻiloange ʻoku tautea hamou taha koeʻuhi ko e fakapō, pe ko e kaihaʻa, pe ko e fai kovi, pe koeʻuhi ko e kaunoa ʻi he meʻa ʻae kakai kehe.
惟願你們中誰也不要因做兇手,或強盜,或壞人,或做煽亂的人而受苦。
16 Ka ʻoka [tautea ha taha ]koeʻuhi ko ʻene anga fakaKalisitiane, ke ʻoua naʻa mā ai ia; kae tuku muʻa ʻae fakaongoongolelei ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko ia.
但若因為是基督徒而受苦,就不該以此為恥,反要為這名稱光榮天主,
17 He ko e kuonga eni ke fuofua fai ʻae tautea ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua: pea ka kamata kiate kitautolu, pea ʻe fēfē ʻae ngataʻanga ʻokinautolu ʻoku ʻikai talangofua ki he ongoongolelei ʻoe ʻOtua?
因為時候已經到了,審判必從天主的家開始;如果先從我們開始,那些不信從天主福音者的結局,又將怎樣呢?
18 “Pea kapau kuo meimei ʻikai hao ʻae māʻoniʻoni, ʻe hā ki fē ʻae taʻelotu mo e angahala?”
『如果義人還難以得救,那麼惡人和罪人,要有什麼結果呢?』
19 Ko ia ke ʻilonga ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamahi ʻo taau mo e finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, ke tukupau honau laumālie ʻi he fai lelei, ʻo hangē ki he Tupuʻi ʻOtua ʻoku fai angatonu.
故此,凡照天主旨意受苦的人,也要把自己的靈魂託付給忠信的造物主,專務行善。
