1 Peter 5
1 Therefore I exhort the elders amongst you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Nikhu vadova mwi va gogolo yumwe muli paninwe nufle, une ne gogo njinyo ni ne tangile va tabu ya Yesu Klisite, uvi mwale ndulunda mano lwa ludeva ulu khiva luvonekha.
2 shepherd the flock of God which is amongst you, exercising the oversight, not under compulsion, but voluntarily; not for dishonest gain, but willingly;
Leno nikhuvapa amakha mwe vagogolo mdemage ili puga lya daadaa ili li paninwe numwe mulelolage pakhuva munogiwa mwiko khu njila ya khunogwa indalama ncha vuvivi. Ila mule gane.
3 not as lording it over those entrusted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
Msile ukhuvikha uvu vaha pakyanya pa vanu avalipasi pavololeli wenyo. Mve khi hwani palipuga.
4 When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
Pala undoleli umbaha vuivonekha, mukhupila uludi gulilo lwa vutwa uvusawisita yaga. uvunonu wayene.
5 Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
Vi vulevule na yumwe mwiva mwe vadebe, mvinchage vadekhedekhe khu vavaha vinyo. Mwivoni mfuale uvudekhedekhe nukhutangana yumwe kwa yumwe, pa khuva u daadaa ibela avanya matingo, ikhuvapa ulusayo avadekhedekhe.
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
Lino mve vadekhedekhe muve pasi pa khivokho kya daadaa ikhi nyamakha avinule khukhasikhe.
7 casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
Muvikhe ifadhaa pakianya pamwene, pakhuva ukhuva sagila.
8 Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Mve nuluhala mvekyoli, pakhuva unta vangwe usetano, nde dima ikuluma, ihegelela ilonda umunu va khulala tula.
9 Withstand him steadfast in your faith, knowing that your brothers who are in the world are undergoing the same sufferings.
Mulime mve vunge nu mwene. Mve na makha mlwidikho lwinyo. Mungalumanye ukhuta avalukolo lwinyo avali mkilongavagendile muma vungundago.
10 But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Messiah Yeshua, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. (aiōnios g166)
Vavile vavungiale musikhe udebe uNguluve unyakhisa kyoni, uviavilangile pa vutwa wa sikhu choni mugati mwa Klisite, ukhuvagolosya ikhuvanocha nukhuvapa amakha. (aiōnios g166)
Uludeva luve numwene sikhu nchoni. Amina. (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
Nikhumwimikha usilwano ulukolo lwango ugolofu ni khuvasimbila umwe padebe ukhu gendela khu mwene. Nikhuvapa amakha, nichova ukhuta aganisimbile ga lusayo na ga lweli. Ya daadaa mwiime mgati mlwene.
13 She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
Avidekhi avali khu Babeli, vavo vavahalilwe paninwe numwe vikhu vaponinwa nu malekha umwana vango, ikhuvaponwa.
14 Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace be to all of you who are in Messiah Yeshua. Amen.
Mpona nwage khila munu nuluchibano lwa lugano ulwidikho luve khuli umwe umuli mgati wa mwa Klisite.
