1 Peter 5
1 Àwọn alàgbà tí ń bẹ láàrín yín ni mo gbànímọ̀ràn, èmi ẹni tí ń ṣe alàgbà bí ẹ̀yin, àti ẹlẹ́rìí ìyà Kristi, àti alábápín nínú ògo tí a ó fihàn.
The elders which are among you, I beseech which am also an elder, and a witnesse of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shalbe reueiled,
2 Ẹ máa tọ́jú agbo Ọlọ́run tí ń bẹ láàrín yín, ẹ máa bojútó o, kì í ṣe àfipáṣe, bí kò ṣe tìfẹ́tìfẹ́; kó má sì jẹ́ fún èrè ìjẹkújẹ, bí kò ṣe pẹ̀lú ìpinnu tí ó múra tan.
Feede the flocke of God, which dependeth vpon you, caring for it not by constraint, but willingly: not for filthy lucre, but of a ready minde:
3 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì í ṣe bí ẹni tí ń lo agbára lórí ìjọ, ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹ ṣe ara yín ní àpẹẹrẹ fún agbo.
Not as though ye were lords ouer Gods heritage, but that yee may bee ensamples to the flocke.
4 Nígbà tí Olórí Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn bá sì fi ara hàn, ẹ̀yin ó gba adé ògo ti kì í sá.
And when that chiefe shepheard shall appeare, ye shall receiue an incorruptible crowne of glory.
5 Bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, ẹ̀yin ọ̀dọ́, ẹ tẹríba fún àwọn alàgbà. Àní, gbogbo yín ẹ máa tẹríba fún ara yín kí ẹ fi ìrẹ̀lẹ̀ wọ ara yín ní aṣọ: nítorí, “Ọlọ́run kọ ojú ìjà sí àwọn agbéraga, ṣùgbọ́n ó ń fi oore-ọ̀fẹ́ fún àwọn onírẹ̀lẹ̀.”
Likewise ye yonger, submit your selues vnto the elders, and submit your selues euery man, one to another: decke your selues inwardly in lowlinesse of minde: for God resisteth the proude, and giueth grace to the humble.
6 Nítorí náà, ẹ rẹ ara yin sílẹ̀ lábẹ́ ọwọ́ agbára Ọlọ́run, kí òun lè gbe yín ga lákokò.
Humble your selues therefore vnder the mightie hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.
7 Ẹ máa kó gbogbo àníyàn yín lé e; nítorí tí òun ń ṣe ìtọ́jú yín.
Cast all your care on him: for he careth for you.
8 Ẹ máa wà ni àìrékọjá, ẹ máa ṣọ́ra; nítorí èṣù ọ̀tá yín, bí i kìnnìún tí ń ké ramúramù, ó ń rìn káàkiri, ó ń wa ẹni tí yóò pajẹ.
Be sober, and watch: for your aduersarie the deuil as a roaring lyon walketh about, seeking whom he may deuoure:
9 Ẹ kọ ojú ìjà sí i pẹ̀lú ìdúró ṣinṣin nínú ìgbàgbọ́, bí ẹ̀yin ti mọ̀ pé ìyà kan náà ni àwọn ará yín tí ń bẹ nínú ayé ń jẹ.
Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren which are in the world.
10 Ọlọ́run oore-ọ̀fẹ́ gbogbo, tí ó ti pè yín sínú ògo rẹ̀ tí kò nípẹ̀kun nínú Kristi Jesu, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá ti jìyà díẹ̀, òun tìkára rẹ̀, yóò sì ṣe yín ní àṣepé, yóò fi ẹsẹ̀ yín múlẹ̀, yóò fún yín lágbára, yóò fi ìdí yín kalẹ̀. (aiōnios g166)
And the God of all grace, which hath called vs vnto his eternall glory by Christ Iesus, after that ye haue suffered a litle, make you perfite, confirme, strengthen and stablish you. (aiōnios g166)
To him be glory and dominion for euer and euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
12 Nítorí Sila, arákùnrin wa olóòtítọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti kà á sí, ni mo kọ̀wé kúkúrú sí i yín, tí mo ń gbà yín níyànjú, tí mo sì ń jẹ́rìí pé, èyí ni òtítọ́ oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run: ẹ dúró ṣinṣin nínú rẹ̀.
By Syluanus a faithfull brother vnto you, as I suppose, haue I written briefly, exhorting and testifying how that this is the true grace of God, wherein ye stand.
13 Ìjọ tí ń bẹ ní Babeli, tí a yàn, pẹ̀lú kí yín, bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni Marku ọmọ mi pẹ̀lú.
The Church that is at Babylon elected together with you, saluteth you, and Marcus my sonne.
14 Ẹ fi ìfẹ́nukonu ìfẹ́ kí ara, yín. Àlàáfíà fún gbogbo yín tí ẹ wà nínú Kristi.
Greete yee one another with the kisse of loue. Peace be with you all which are in Christ Iesus, Amen.
