1 Peter 4
1 Ǹjẹ́ bí Kristi ti jìyà fún wa nípa ti ará, irú kan náà ni kí ẹ̀yin fi hámọ́ra; nítorí ẹni tí ó bá ti jìyà nípa ti ara, ó ti bọ́ lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.
Therefore Christ having suffered in the flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same mind: because the one having suffered in carnality has ceased from sin;
2 Kí ẹ̀yin má ṣe fi ìgbà ayé yín ìyókù wà nínú ara mọ́ sí ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ènìyàn bí kò ṣe sí ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run.
that he may no longer live the remaining time in carnality according to the lusts of men, but in the will of God.
3 Nítorí ìgbà tí ó ti kọjá ti tó fún ṣíṣe ìfẹ́ àwọn aláìkọlà, rínrìn nínú ìwà wọ̀bìà, ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́, ọtí àmupara, ìréde òru, kíkó ẹ̀gbẹ́ ọ̀mùtí, àti ìbọ̀rìṣà tí í ṣe ohun ìríra.
For the past time is sufficient to have wrought the will of the heathens, walking in impurities, in lusts, in wine-drinkings, in revelries, in intemperance, and in unlawful idolatries:
4 Èyí tí ó yà wọ́n lẹ́nu pé ẹ̀yin kò ba wọn súré sínú irú àṣejù ìwà wọ̀bìà wọ́n, tí wọ́n sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ yín ní búburú.
in which they are astonished you not running to the same excess of wrath, blaspheming;
5 Àwọn ẹni tí yóò jíyìn fún ẹni tí ó ti múra láti ṣe ìdájọ́ alààyè àti òkú.
who shall give an account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
6 Nítorí èyí ní a sá ṣe wàásù ìyìnrere fún àwọn òkú, kí a lè ṣe ìdájọ́ wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ènìyàn nípa ti ara, ṣùgbọ́n kí wọ́n lè wà láààyè si Ọlọ́run nípa tí Ẹ̀mí.
For, unto this the gospel was also preached to the dead, in order that they may indeed be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n òpin ohun gbogbo kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀; nítorí náà kí ẹ̀yin wà ní àìrékọjá, kí ẹ sì máa ṣọ́ra nínú àdúrà.
But the end of all things is at hand. Therefore be prudent, and sober unto prayers:
8 Ju gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, ẹ ní ìfẹ́ tí ó gbóná láàrín ara yín, nítorí ìfẹ́ ni ń bo ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀.
before all things having divine love stedfast toward one another; because divine love covers a multitude of sins:
9 Ẹ máa ṣe ara yín ni àlejò láìsí ìkùnsínú.
being hospitable to one another without grudging;
10 Bí olúkúlùkù ti rí ẹ̀bùn gbà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ máa ṣe ìpín fún ni rẹ̀ láàrín ara yín, bí ìríjú rere tí onírúurú oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run.
as each one received the gift of grace, ministering the same to one another, as the good stewards of the manifold grace of God:
11 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni ba ń sọ̀rọ̀, kí o máa sọ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run, bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá ń ṣe iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́, kí ó ṣe é bí agbára tí Ọlọ́run fi fún un, kí a lè máa yin Ọlọ́run lógo ní ohun gbogbo nípa Jesu Kristi, ẹni tí ògo àti ìjọba wà fún láé àti láéláé. Àmín. (aiōn g165)
if any one speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any one ministers, as from the strength which God supplies; in order that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ; to whom there is glory and power unto the ages of the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Olùfẹ́, ẹ má ṣe ka ìdánwò gbígbóná ti ń bẹ láàrín yín láti dán yín wò bi ẹni pé ohun àjèjì ni ó dé bá yín.
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial among you, coming upon you unto your testing: as some strange thing happening to you:
13 Ṣùgbọ́n níwọ̀n bí ẹ̀yin tí jẹ́ alábápín ìyà Kristi, ẹ máa yọ̀, kí ẹ̀yin lè yọ ayọ̀ púpọ̀ nígbà tí a bá fi ògo rẹ̀ hàn.
but as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice; in order that you may also rejoice in the revelation of his glory, being glad.
14 Bí a bá gàn yín nítorí orúkọ Kristi, ẹni ìbùkún ni yín: nítorí Ẹ̀mí Ògo àti ti Ọlọ́run bà lé yín.
If you suffer reproach in the name of Christ, happy are you, because the spirit of the glory and the spirit of God rest on you.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ má jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín jìyà bí apànìyàn, tàbí bí olè, tàbí bí olùṣe búburú, tàbí bí ẹni tí ń tojú bọ̀ ọ̀ràn ẹlòmíràn.
But let no one of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other people's business:
16 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá jìyà bí Kristiani kí ojú má ṣe tì í, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó kúkú yin Ọlọ́run lógo nítorí ti o orúkọ yìí.
but if as a Christian, be not ashamed, but glorify God in this name.
17 Nítorí ti ìgbà náà dé, tí ìdájọ́ yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ilé Ọlọ́run wá, bí ó bá sì tètè tí ọ̀dọ̀ wa bẹ̀rẹ̀, ìgbẹ̀yìn àwọn tí kò gba ìyìnrere Ọlọ́run yó ha ti rí?
Because it is time that judgment should begin from the house of God: and if it is first from us, what shall be the end of those who obey not the gospel of God?
18 “Bí ó bá ṣe pé agbára káká ni a fi gba olódodo là, níbo ni aláìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run àti ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ yóò yọjú sí?”
And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
19 Nítorí náà, ẹ jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ń jìyà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run ni ṣíṣe rere, fi ọkàn wọn lè Ẹlẹ́dàá olóòtítọ́ lọ́wọ́.
So let those indeed suffering according to the will of God submit their souls to the faithful Creator, in good work.
