1Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
1 Za kaŋ Almasihu di gurzugay gaaham ra, araŋ mo, kal araŋ ma anniya din haw araŋ gaa. Zama boro kaŋ di gurzugay gaaham ra na zunubi naŋ,
2That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
2 hal a gaahamo fundi jirbey kaŋ cindi a se ra, a ma si ye ka borey ibaay* laaley gana koyne, amma a ma funa ka Irikoy miila gana.
3For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:
3 Zama jirbey kaŋ bisa ga wasa araŋ se da dumi cindey miila teeyaŋ. Araŋ dira furkutaray ra, da ibaay laaley, da baji haŋ-ka-buguyaŋ, da annasuwa, da baji haŋyaŋ, da tooru ganayaŋ ra kaŋ ga ti fanta hari.
4Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
4 Sohõ binde i goono ga dambara zama araŋ si ga zuru i banda ka margu nd'ey i furkutaray goray laaley ra. Woodin se no i goono g'araŋ wow.
5Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
5 Amma tilas kal i ma konda ngey te-goyey Irikoy jine, nga kaŋ soola nga ma fundikooney da buukoy ciiti.
6For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
6 Zama woone se mo no i na Baaru Hanna waazu _waato|_ borey se kaŋ yaŋ _sohõ i|_ bu, hal Irikoy m'i ciiti gaaham ra danga mate kaŋ a ga borey kulu ciiti, hal i ma funa mo Irikoy jine biya ra.
7But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.
7 Hay kulu bananta maan. Woodin sabbay se wa te laakal ka hin araŋ boŋ adduwa teeyaŋ se.
8And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
8 Hay kulu jine, wa bara nda baakasinay gumo araŋ da care game ra, zama baakasinay ga zunubi boobo daabu.
9Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
9 Araŋ ma te araŋ da care se yaw gaaykoyaŋ, kaŋ manti nda guunu-guunuyaŋ mo.
10As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
10 Araŋ boro fo kulu ma care saajaw da gomni nooyaŋo kaŋ a du Irikoy do, danga Irikoy gomni waani-waani jine funa hanno yaŋ.
11If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
11 Da boro fo go ga salaŋ, a sanno ma hima wo kaŋ fun Irikoy do. Da boro go ga saajaw, a m'a te da gaabo kaŋ Irikoy g'a no, zama hay kulu ra i ma Irikoy beerandi Yesu Almasihu do. Beeray da koytaray ma bara a se hal abada abadin. Amin!
12Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
12 Ay baakoy, wa si dambara nda gurzugay konna kaŋ go araŋ game ra, kaŋ zumbu araŋ boŋ zama a m'araŋ gosi, hal araŋ ma ne dambara hari fo no ka du araŋ.
13But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
13 Amma wa farhã kaŋ araŋ goono ga margu Almasihu gurzuga ra, hal a darza bangandiyaŋo alwaato mo, araŋ ma farhã da farhã beeri.
14If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
14 Zama araŋ ya albarkanteyaŋ no d'i goono g'araŋ jance Almasihu maa sabbay se. Zama darza Biya kaŋ ga ti Irikoy Biya goono ga goro araŋ boŋ.
15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
15 Amma araŋ ra boro kulu ma si taabi haŋ danga boro-wi wala zay wala goy laalo teeko, wala kawlante boro fo muraadu ra.
16Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
16 Amma da boro fo goono ga taabi haŋ zama nga ya Almasihu ganako no, haawi ma s'a di, amma a ma Irikoy beerandi maa kaŋ go a gaa din sabbay se.
17For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
17 Zama alwaato to kaŋ ciito ga sintin Irikoy jama gaa. Amma d'iri do no a ga sintin, borey kaŋ siino ga Irikoy Baaru Hanna gana, mate no i kokora ga ciya d'a?
18And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
18 «Da mo _Almasihu ganako|_ adilante* ga du faaba nda cat, mate no boro kaŋ wangu Irikoy nda zunubikooni mo ga ciya?»
19Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.
19 Woodin sabbay se binde, borey kaŋ goono ga taabi haŋ Irikoy miila sabbay se, i ma ngey fundey talfi Takako naanaykoyo gaa goy hanno teeyaŋ ra.
