¹Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,

¹Et nüüd Kristus on ihulikult kannatanud, relvastuge teiegi sellesama meelsusega, sest kes on kannatanud ihulikult, see on lakanud patustamast,

²no more in the desires of men, but in the will of God, to live the rest of the time in the flesh;

²nii et ta maises elus allesjäänud aega ei ela enam inimlike himude, vaid Jumala tahtmise järgi.

³for sufficient to us [is] the past time of life the will of the nations to have wrought, having walked in lasciviousnesses, desires, excesses of wines, revelings, drinking-bouts, and unlawful idolatries,

³Sest te olete minevikus küllalt palju aega mööda saatnud paganate tahtmist täites, elades kõlvatuses, himudes, purjutamises, prassimistes, joomingutes ja sündsusetutes ebajumalateenistustes.

⁴in which they think it strange — your not running with them to the same excess of dissoluteness, speaking evil,

⁴Just seepärast nad võõrastavad, et te nendega ei jookse kaasa sellesama ulaelu voolus ja teotavad teid,

⁵who shall give an account to Him who is ready to judge living and dead,

⁵nemad, kes peavad aru andma sellele, kes on juba valmis tulema kohut mõistma elavate ja surnute üle.

⁶for for this also to dead men was good news proclaimed, that they may be judged, indeed, according to men in the flesh, and may live according to God in the spirit.

⁶Sest just selleks on ka surnutele kuulutatud evangeeliumi, et nende üle mõistetaks kohut küll nagu inimeste üle lihas, aga nad elaksid vaimus nagu Jumal.

⁷And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,

⁷Aga kõigi asjade lõpp on lähedal. Olge siis arukad ja kained palveteks.

⁸and, before all things, to one another having the earnest love, because the love shall cover a multitude of sins;

⁸Üle kõige olgu püsiv teie omavaheline armastus, sest 'armastus katab kinni pattude hulga'.

⁹hospitable to one another, without murmuring;

⁹Olge üksteise vastu külalislahked ilma nurisemata!

¹⁰each, according as he received a gift, to one another ministering it, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;

¹⁰Teenigu igaüks teisi selle andega, mille ta on saanud, nagu Jumala mitmesuguse armu head majapidajad.

¹¹if any one doth speak — `as oracles of God;` if any one doth minister — `as of the ability which God doth supply;` that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the power — to the ages of the ages. Amen.

¹¹Kui keegi räägib, siis ta rääkigu nagu Jumala sõnul, kui keegi teenib, siis teenigu nagu selle jõuga, mille Jumal annab, nõnda et Jumal saaks kõigiti austust Jeesuse Kristuse kaudu, kelle päralt on kirkus ja võimus igavesest ajast igavesti! Aamen.

¹²Beloved, think it not strange at the fiery suffering among you that is coming to try you, as if a strange thing were happening to you,

¹²Armsad, ärge võõrastage enestes tulekuumust, millega teid pannakse proovile, nii nagu sünniks teile midagi võõrast,

¹³but, according as ye have fellowship with the sufferings of the Christ, rejoice ye, that also in the revelation of his glory ye may rejoice — exulting;

¹³vaid rõõmustage, et nii nagu te olete Kristuse kannatuste osalised, võite rõõmuga hõisata ka tema kirkuse ilmumisel.

¹⁴if ye be reproached in the name of Christ — happy [are ye], because the Spirit of glory and of God upon you doth rest; in regard, indeed, to them, he is evil-spoken of, and in regard to you, he is glorified;

¹⁴Õndsad olete teie, kui teid teotatakse Kristuse nime pärast, sest siis hingab teie peal kirkuse Vaim, Jumala Vaim.

¹⁵for let none of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or evil-doer, or as an inspector into other men`s matters;

¹⁵Ärgu aga keegi teie seast kannatagu mõrtsukana või vargana või kurjategijana või teiste ellu sekkujana!

¹⁶and if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; and let him glorify God in this respect;

¹⁶Aga kes kannatab kristlasena, ärgu häbenegu, vaid andku Jumalale au selle nimega!

¹⁷because it is the time of the beginning of the judgment from the house of God, and if first from us, what the end of those disobedient to the good news of God?

¹⁷Sest käes on aeg kohtumõistmisel alata Jumala kojast; aga kui esmalt meist, missugune lõpp ootab siis neid, kes ei võta kuulda Jumala evangeeliumi?

¹⁸And if the righteous man is scarcely saved, the ungodly and sinner — where shall he appear?

¹⁸Ja kui juba õige pääseb vaevu, kuhu siis satub jumalakartmatu ja patune?

¹⁹so that also those suffering according to the will of god, as to a stedfast Creator, let them commit their own souls in good doing.

¹⁹Sellepärast ka need, kes kannatavad Jumala tahtmise järgi, usaldagu oma hinged head tehes tema, ustava Looja hoolde.
