¹Putting away therefore all wickedness, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

¹Shuden sa o vurhichimos, xoxaimos, dziliarimos, o pupuimos, ai e zhaluzia, na ker barimata, na mangen so si kolavres, na kerdion so chi san.

²as newborn babes, long for the spiritual milk which is without guile, that ye may grow thereby unto salvation;

²Sar le tsinorhe glate mangen o thud kai avel katar E Vorba le Devleski, saxke te barion ando traio kai avel katar O Del.

³if ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious:

³Ke E Vorba le Devleski mothol, "Ke zumadian anda lashimos le Kristosko."

⁴unto whom coming, a living stone, rejected indeed of men, but with God elect, precious,

⁴Pashon pasha Kristo, ke wo si O Bax o zhuvindo kai le manush chi mangle te premin, numa O Del alosardia kodo bax, ai kuchi sas leske.

⁵ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

⁵Te avena ka Kristo vi tume avena bax zhuvinde, ai O Kristo kerela anda tumende te aven leske khangeri, ai kadia avena sakrifikatoria kai aven thodine te anen angla Del sakrifisuria kai si leske drago katar O Jesus Kristo.

⁶Because it is contained in scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame.

⁶Ke eta, so mothol E Vorba le Devleski, "Me alosardem iek bax kai si les baro pretso, ai kai thav akana sar iek bax kai si koltso ando Zion, ai o manush kai thola pesko pachamos ande kodo bax alome kai si O Kristo ai kai kerela pesko traio pe leste, chi atsadiola.

⁷For you therefore that believe is the preciousness: but for such as disbelieve, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner;

⁷Ai kodo bax si les baro pretso tumenge kai pachan tume, numa kodola kai chi pachanpe: E Vorba le Devleski mothol, "O bax kai le manush kai keren o kher shudesas, kerdilo o shero la fundaniako"

⁸and, A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence; for they stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

⁸Ai E Vorba le Devleski mai mothol, "Kodo bax si Kristo kai peravel le manushen, ai o baro bax kai anel o lazhav." Ke chi mangle te pachan pe ande Vorba le Devleski, ke kadia sas lenge shinado.

⁹But ye are a elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for [God's] own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

⁹Numa tume san ek vitsa alome, tume san le rasha swuntso le amperatosko, o narodo o swunto, ai o narodo le Devlesko; tume sanas alome te mothon pa mishtimos le Devlesko, ai kai akhardia tume anda tuniariko te aven ande vediara.

¹⁰who in time past were no people, but now are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

¹⁰Tume mai anglal chi sanas ek vitsa, numa akana san o narodo le Devlesko; tume mai anglal chi zhanenas e mila le Devleski, numa akana si tume leski mila.

¹¹Beloved, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lust, which war against the soul;

¹¹Murhe kuchi vortacha, tume san pe phuv streinuria ai manush kai ferdi nakhen pai phuv, mangav tumendar te arakhen tume katar le ginduria le chorhe kai si le statos, ai kai maren pe tumare traiosa.

¹²having your behavior seemly among the Gentiles; that, wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works, which they behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

¹²Ai trobul te avel tumaro traio vorta mashkar le manush kai chi pachanpe ando Del; ai kadia, marka te mothona chordanes ke nasul san, musai avela lenge te preznain o mishtimos kai keren ai te luvudin le Devles o dies kai avela.

¹³Be subject to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme;

¹³Len tume ando anav le Kristosko pala zakono kai sas thodino katar le manush le themeske, keren so mothol o baro le themesko,

¹⁴or unto governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evil-doers and for praise to them that do well.

¹⁴ai len tume pala kodola kai si tela lesko vas ke won thodine le te phandaven le manushen kai keren o nasulimos, numa te luvudin le manushen kai keren o mishtimos.

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

¹⁵Ke e voia le Devleski si, te aterdiaren tume le mishtimasa, o nasulimos kai mothon le manush kai chi zhanen ai kai nai pachivale,

¹⁶as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

¹⁶ai traiin sar manush kai si ivia, numa na garaven tela tumari liberte o nasulimos, keren sar slugi le Devleske.

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

¹⁷Respektin sa le manushen, te aven tumenge drago tumare phral kai pachanpe ando Del, luvudin O Del la dragostiasa ai darasa. Respektin le bares kai si ando them.

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

¹⁸Tume le slugi, keren so mangen tumendar tumare bare ai respektin le, numa na ferdi kodolensa kai si lashe tumensa, numa vi kodolensa kai nai lashe tumensa.

¹⁹For this is acceptable, if for conscience toward God a man endureth griefs, suffering wrongfully.

¹⁹O Del raduila tume te rhevdina e dukh le vutuimaski ke tume keren e voia le Devleski, ai jinen pe leste.

²⁰For what glory is it, if, when ye sin, and are buffeted [for it], ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer [for it], ye shall take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

²⁰Ke che luvudimos sai avel tume te avena vutuime palai shipka kai kerdian? Numa te rhevdina o vutuimos pala mishtimos kai kerdian, kodia si vorta angla Del.

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

²¹Ke pala kodia akhardia tume O Del, ke O Kristo chinuisardia pala tumende ai meklia te len sama pe leste, ai te len tume pala leske vurmi.

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

²²Wo chi kerdia chi iek bezex, ai shoxar chi ashundilia ke xoxavel.

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

²³Kana marde lestar mui, chi mardia lendar mui palpale; kana chinuisarde les, chi phendia ke chinuila le vi wo; numa mekliape andel vas le Devleske, kai ferdi wo kerel e kris vorta.

²⁴who his own self bare our sins in his body upon the tree, that we, having died unto sins, might live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.

²⁴Ai O Kristo lia ande pesko stato amare bezexa po trushul, saxke te meras le bezexeske, ai te traiisaras iek traio vorta; ai ande leske rhini sastilian.

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

²⁵Ke tume sanas sar bakriorha kai xasaile sas, numa akana sanas andine palpale karing kodo kai si o pastuxo, kodo kai garavel tumaro traio.
