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 Gannaaw Kirist nag sonn na ci yaramam, gànnaayooleen xelam moomu, ndaxte ku sonn ci yaramam, tàggoo na ak bàkkaar.

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 Noonu diir bi ko dese ci kaw suuf, dëddu na bànneexi bakkan, jublu ci coobareg Yàlla.

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 Ndaxte àndoon ngeen démb ci xalaati ñi xamul Yàlla, di dund ciy ñaawteef ak topp seen bakkan, di màndi ak a xawaare, di xér ci biiñ ak a jaamu ay xërëm yu araam, waaye na fi yem nag.

⁴Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:

⁴ Ñiy jëfe noonu waaru nañu, ba di leen sosal, ci li ngeen àndul ak ñoom, sóobu ci seeni moy yu dul jeex,

⁵Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.

⁵ waaye dinañu mas a teew fa kanam Ki nar a àtte ñiy dund ak ñi dee.

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 Looloo waral it ñu jottali xebaar bu baax ndee, ya fekke woon jamonoy Nóoyin jooju, ngir ñu dunde Yàlla ci seen xel, doonte sax nit ñaa ngi leen daan fitnaal ci àddina.

⁷But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

⁷ Te itam muju lépp jegesi na; nangeen maandu te foog, ba man a ñaan ci Yàlla.

⁸And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

⁸ Li gën a am solo mooy, ngeen bëggante mbëggeel gu tar, ndax mbëggeel day suul bàkkaar yu bare.

⁹Use hospitality one to another without grudging.

⁹ Ganalanteleen ci lu àndul ak njàmbat.

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 Te lu la Yàlla jagleel kenn ku nekk ci yéen, nanga ko bokk ak ñépp ni jawriñ ju jub, ci séddale yiwu Yàlla wu yaatu.

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 Kuy jottali kàddug Yàlla, na mel ni Yàllaay wax. Kuy jëf it, na jëfe dooley Yàlla, ngir turu Yàlla màgg ci lépp jaar ci Yeesu Kirist, mi yelloo ndam ak kàttan ba fàww. Amiin.

¹²Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:

¹² Yéen samay xarit, ci mbirum nattu bu tànge ni daay, bi dal ci seen kaw, bumu leen jaaxal, ba ngeen teg ko ni lu xel dajul.

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 Waaye bégleen ci cér, boobu ngeen am ci coonoy Kirist, ngir bés bu ndamam di feeñ, ngeen bég ak mbég mu ëpp xel.

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 Su ñu leen jànnee sax ci turu Kirist, xamleen ne ñu barkeel ngeen, ndax Xelum Yàllaa ngi ci yéen, di firndeel seen ndamu ëllëg.

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 Buñu sonal kenn ci yéen ci li mu rey nit walla mu sàcc, mbaa def lu bon, walla dugg ci lu yoonam nekkul.

¹⁶Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

¹⁶ Waaye ku ñu sonal ndax waayu Kirist nga, bu ci rus, waaye nga màggal Yàlla ci tur woowu.

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 Ndaxte àpp bi jot na, àtte baa ngi tàmbalee ci nun waa kër Yàlla. Te su tàmbalee ci nun nag, luy muju ñi weddi xebaaru Yàlla?

¹⁸And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

¹⁸ Te:«Su muccu ki jub jafee,luy doon muju ki weddi te dëng?»

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 Kon nag ñi tegoo fitna ci coobareg Yàlla, nañu sax ci def lu baax, dénk seen bopp Yàlla, miy Bindkat biy sàmm kóllëre.
