¹Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, all evil speakings,

¹Beraz vtziric malitia gucia, eta enganio guciá, eta hypocrisiác, eta inuidiác, eta gaitzerraite guciac,

²As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

²Desira eçaçue, haour heuraguiric eztuela sorthuen ançora, adimenduzco eta enganio gabeco eznea, harçaz haz çaiteztençát.

³If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.

³Baldin dastatu baduçue ecen benigno dela Iauna.

⁴To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,

⁴Harengana hurbiltzen çaretelaric cein baita harri vicia, guiçonéz arbuyatua, baina Iaincoa baithan elegitua eta preciosoa.

⁵Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

⁵Çuec-ere harri vici anço edifica çaitezte, etche spiritual, Sacrificadoregoa saindu, Iesus Christez Iaincoaren gogaraco sacrificio spiritual offrendatzeco.

⁶Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

⁶Halacotz contenitzen-ere da Scripturán, Huná, eçarten dut Sionen, har cantoin principala, elegitua eta preciosoa: eta hartan sinhesten duena ezta confus içanen.

⁷Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

⁷Hurá da bada ohore çuen sinhesten duçuenón: baina sinhesten eztutenen, harri edificaçaléc arbuyatu vkan dutena cantoineco principal eguin içan da, eta behaztopamendutaco harri, eta trebucamendutaco harri.

⁸And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

⁸Cein trebucatzen baitirade hitzaren contra desobedient diradelaric: hartaco ordenatu-ere dirade.

⁹But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;

⁹Baina çuec çarete generatione elegitua, Sacrificadoregoa reala, gende saindua, populu acquisitua: ilhumbetic bere miragarrizco arguira deithu vkan çaituztenaren verthuteac denuntia ditzaçuençát.

¹⁰Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

¹⁰Noizpait cinetenac ez populu, orain çarete Iaincoaren populu: çuec misericordia obtenitu etzendutenóc, orain misericordia obtenitu vkan duçue.

¹¹Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

¹¹Maiteác, othoitz eguiten drauçuet, estrangeren eta bideazcoén ançora, beguira çaitezten haraguiaren guthicietaric, ceinéc guerla eguiten baitute arimén contra:

¹²Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

¹²Çuen conuersationea duçuelaric honest Gentillén artean çueçaz gaizquiguilez beçala minço diraden gaucetan, ikussi dituqueizten obra onetaric glorifica deçatençát Iaincoa visitationeco egunean.

¹³Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;

¹³Çareten bada suiet gobernamendu humano guciaren Iaunagatic: edo regueren, superioraren beçala:

¹⁴Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.

¹⁴Edo gobernadorén, harçaz igorri içan diradenén beçala, gaizquiguilén mendequiotan eta vnguiguilén laudoriotan.

¹⁵For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

¹⁵Ecen hunela da Iaincoaren vorondatea, vngui eguitez, guiçon erhoén ignorantiari ahoa boça dieçoçuen:

¹⁶As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

¹⁶Libertatetan çaretenéc beçala, eta ez libertatea malitiaren estalquitan bacendute beçala, aitzitic Iaincoaren cerbitzariéc beçala.

¹⁷Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

¹⁷Guciac ohoraitzaçue: anayetassunari on eritzoçue. Çareten Iaincoaren beldur. Regue ohora eçaçue.

¹⁸Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

¹⁸Cerbitzariác, çareten beldur gucirequin nabussién suiet, ez solament onén eta humanoén, baina dorpén-ere.

¹⁹For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.

¹⁹Ecen haur da gogaraco, baldin norbeitec Iaincoaganaco conscientiagatic fascheriaric suffritzen badu, iniustoqui suffritzen duelaric:

²⁰For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

²⁰Ecen cer laudorio da, baldin falta eguinic buffetatzen çaretenean pairatzen baduçue? baina baldin vngui eguiten duçuelaric eta affligitzen çaretelaric pairatzen baduçue, haur da Iaincoaren gogaraco.

²¹For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

²¹Ecen hunetacotzát deithu içan çarete: ecen Christec-ere suffritu vkan du guregatic, guri exemplu vtziten draucula, haren oin hatzey iarreiqui çaquiztençat:

²²Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

²²Ceinec ezpaitu bekaturic eguin vkan, eta eceinere enganioric ezta eriden içan haren ahoan.

²³Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

²³Ceinec iniuriatzen cenean, ezpaitzuen iniuriatzen: gaizqui eguiten ceraucatenean, ezpaitzuen mehatchuric eguiten: baina remettitzen cen iustoqui iugeatzen duenagana.

²⁴Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

²⁴Ceinec gure bekatuac ekarri vkan baititu bere gorputzean çur gainean: bekatuey hilic, iustitiari vici guiaizquionçat: ceinen vkalduráz sendatu içan baitzarete.

²⁵For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

²⁵Ecen ardi errebelatuac beçala cineten, baina orain conuertitu içan çarete çuen arimén Artzainagana eta Ipizpicuagana.
