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, since Messiah suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh 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 you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for 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 we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable 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.
They think it is strange that you don’t run with them into the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you.
5 Àwọn ẹni tí yóò jíyìn fún ẹni tí ó ti múra láti ṣe ìdájọ́ alààyè àti òkú.
They will give 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 to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh, but live as 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 near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer.
8 Ju gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, ẹ ní ìfẹ́ tí ó gbóná láàrín ara yín, nítorí ìfẹ́ ni ń bo ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀.
And above all things be earnest in your love among yourselves, for love covers a multitude of sins.
9 Ẹ máa ṣe ara yín ni àlejò láìsí ìkùnsínú.
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
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 has received a gift, employ it in serving one another, as good managers of the grace of God in its various forms.
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 anyone speaks, let it be as it were the very words of God. If anyone serves, let it be as of the strength which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Yeshua the Messiah, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. 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, don’t be astonished at the fiery trial which has come upon you to test you, as though a strange thing happened 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 because you are partakers of Messiah’s sufferings, rejoice, that at the revelation of his glory you also may rejoice with exceeding joy.
14 Bí a bá gàn yín nítorí orúkọ Kristi, ẹni ìbùkún ni yín: nítorí Ẹ̀mí Ògo àti ti Ọlọ́run bà lé yín.
If you are insulted for the name of Messiah, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. On their part he is blasphemed, but on your part he is glorified.
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 none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil doer, or a meddler in other men’s matters.
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 one of you suffers for being a Messianic, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this matter.
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?
For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God. If it begins first with us, what will happen to those who don’t obey the Good News 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?”
“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved, what will happen to the ungodly and the sinner?”
19 Nítorí náà, ẹ jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ń jìyà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run ni ṣíṣe rere, fi ọkàn wọn lè Ẹlẹ́dàá olóòtítọ́ lọ́wọ́.
Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.
