¹Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the elect who are sojourners of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

¹Katar o Petri, ek apostle le Jesus Kristoski, kodolenge kai O Del alosardia ai kai traiin sar streinuria ande kolaver thema, ai hulade pel riga kai si ando Pontuis, ande Galatia, ai ande Cappadocia, ande Asia, ai ande Bithynia.

²according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

²Tume sanas alome mai anglal katar o Del O Dat, ai tume san leske pala lesko Swunto Duxo te keren so mangel O Jesus Kristo, ai te aven vuzharde katar lesko rat. O mishtimos ai a pacha te aven shorde ande tumare ile.

³Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy begat us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

³Luvudisaras le Devles O Dat amare Devleske O Jesus Kristo! Kai ande pesko baro lashimos dia ame iek nevo traio kana andia le Jesus Kristos katar e martia ka traio.

⁴unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,

⁴No kadia si ame iek pachamos zhuvindo, ai sai raduisavas anda mishtimos kai O Del garavel peske manushenge. Ai kodo mishtimos nashtil chi te cherniol, chi te meliavol, ai chi te xasarel pesko strefaimos, ke O Del garavel les ando cheri tumenge.

⁵who by the power of God are guarded through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

⁵Tumenge kai san garade katar iek Del kai si les e putiera ai kai pachan tume ande leste, o skepimos sikadiola kana avela e vriama paluno.

⁶Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, ye have been put to grief in manifold trials,

⁶Numa tume raduime san, marka ke akana trobul te aven nekezhime pe xantsi vriama pala le but zumaimata kai aven pe tumende.

⁷that the proof of your faith, [being] more precious than gold that perisheth though it is proved by fire, may be found unto praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

⁷Ke le zumaimata si te sikaven sode si de baro tumaro pachamos. O sumnakai andek dies chi mai avela, numa e iag zumavel les te dikhel leski zor. Sakadia, tumaro pachamos si mai baro sar o sumnakai ai vi trobul te avel zumado, saxke te dichol leski zor. Antunchi tumaro pachamos anel o barimos, luvudimos, ai naisimos ka O Jesus Kristo kana avela palpale.

⁸whom not having seen ye love; on whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

⁸Tumenge drago O Kristo ai thodian tumaro pachamos ande leste, marka ke chi dikhlian les. Ai pala leste tumaro raduimos baro lo, iek raduimos kai nashtin te mothon, ai kai ande kodo raduimos si e vediara kai avel katar o shukarimos le Devlesko.

⁹receiving the end of your faith, [even] the salvation of [your] souls.

⁹Ke zhanen ke avela tume o skepimos pala tumaro pachamos.

¹⁰Concerning which salvation the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that [should come] unto you:

¹⁰Ai kado skeipmos sas rodino ande Vorba le Devleski katar le profeturia, ai kai phende tumenge mai anglal o lashimos kai sas tumenge shinado.

¹¹searching what [time] or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did point unto, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow them.

¹¹Ai won rodenas te zhanen kana, ai so kerdiola kana o dies le skepimasko avela, ke O Swunto Duxho kai sas ande lende motholas lenge pa skepimos, ke O Swunto Duxo motholas lenge mai anglal o chino kai avela le Kristos, ai o luvudimos pala kodia.

¹²To whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto you, did they minister these things, which now have been announced unto you through them that preached the gospel unto you by the Holy Spirit sent forth from heaven; which things angel desire to look into.

¹²Ke O Del sikadia le profetonge ke o lashimos kai delas le te mothon nas lenge, numa tumenge, ai kodo lashimos tume premisardian les akana, le manush kai aven e lashi viasta, kai dine duma la putierasa kai si ande Swunto Duxo kai sas tradino anda rhaio phende tumenge pa kodo lashimos. Ai le angeluria vi won mangline te zhanen kodo lashimos.

¹³Wherefore girding up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

¹³Anda kodia thon tumare ginduria andek than ai tumari zor, geton tume te zhan angle ai te keren buchi, na soven, numa azhukeren pala o mishtimos kai avela dino kana O Jesus Kristo avela.

¹⁴as children of obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in [the time of] your ignorance:

¹⁴Keren so mangel tumendar O Del, ai na mai keren le dieli le bi lashe kai kerenas mai anglal kana chi zhanenas le Devles.

¹⁵but like as he who called you is holy, be ye yourselves also holy in all manner of living;

¹⁵Numa trobul te avel tume iek Swunto traio sar O Del, ke wo kai akhardia tume swunto lo.

¹⁶because it is written, Ye shall be holy; for I am holy.

¹⁶Ke E Vorba le Devleski mothol, "Trobul te aven swuntsi, ke me Swunto sim."

¹⁷And if ye call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to each man's work, pass the time of your sojourning in fear:

¹⁷Kana rhugin tume, mothon amaro Dat, kodoleske kai del pe kris le manushen bi te alol le manushen, numa kerel le manushensa pala so kerde; anda kodia, e vriama kai mai si tume te traiin pe kadia phuv na keren o nasulimos numa keren so mangel tumendar O Del.

¹⁸knowing that ye were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from your fathers;

¹⁸Ke zhanen o pretso kai sas pochindo te aven skepime anda traio o bi malado kai mekle sas tumenge tumare dada. Ai den tume goji ke chi sanas chinde le rupesa vai le sumnakasa; ai chi ieka dielasa kai xasarel pesko pretso;

¹⁹but with precious blood, as of a lamb without spot, [even the blood] of Christ:

¹⁹Nichi, numa trobulsardia O Kristos sar iek bakriorhi bi doshako te shorel pesko rat o kuchi pala tumende.

²⁰who was foreknown indeed before the foundation of the world, but was manifested at the end of times for your sake,

²⁰Mai anglal sar te avel e lumia O Del alosardiasas le Kristos te kerel kodia buchi, numa akana sikadilo ande kodala vriama le paluno pe tumaro mishtimos.

²¹who through him are believers in God, that raised him from the dead, and gave him glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.

²¹Ke pala leste arakhlian o pachamos ando Del, ai porme O Del zhuvindisardia les mashkar le mule, ai porme dia les o barimos; no kadia tumaro pachamos ai o mishtimos kai azhukeren ando Del le.

²²Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently:

²²Tume vuzhilian ke lian tume pala chachimos ai sas tume dini iek podarka iek dragostia kai avel katar O Swunto Duxo. Trobul te aven drazhi iek kavreske sa tumare ilesa sagda.

²³having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth.

²³Ai samas parhude na katar iek sumuntsa kai cherniol, numa katar iek sumuntsa kai chi cherniol, kodia si E Vorba le Devleski kai zhuvindil ai beshel sagda.

²⁴For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower falleth:

²⁴Ke E Vorba le Devleski mothol, "Sa le manush sar e char le, e char shuchol, ai sa o luvudimos le manushenge sar e luluji la chariaki le, ai e luluji perel, numa E Vorba le Devleski sagda beshel."

²⁵But the word of the Lord abideth for ever. And this is the word of good tidings which was preached unto you.

²⁵Ai kodia Vorba si e lashi viasta kai ashundian.
