¹Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

²thumang ding leh Jesu Kris sisan theh tang ding a Kha hihtuam, Pa Pathian theihkholh bang a telte kiang ah: Na tunguah hehpihna leh lemna hihkhanin omhen.

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

³I Toupa Jesu Kris Pathian leh Pa tuh phatin om hen, Aman tuh a hehpihna thupi tak bang jelin, misi lak akipan Jesu Kris thohnawnna jiakin lametna hing mu dingin a honsuang nawna,

³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

⁴goutan sethei lou, nin bang lou, tul theilou, vana noua dinga sit muhna dingin;

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

⁵hotdamna, hun nanunga lang dinga zohsa mu dingin, ginna jiakin Pathian thilhihtheihnaa ven na hi uhi.

⁵Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

⁶Huaiah nakpi takin na kipak uhi, tuin (a kiphatmoh leh) khemna chiteng jiakin lungkham tadih mahle uchin;

⁶Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:

⁷na ginna uh zeetna, dangkaeng meia zeet nung nangawna mangthang jel sanga manpha jaw, Jesu Kris kilak chiangin phatna leh pahtawina leh thupina ding a honghih theihna ding in.

⁷That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:

⁸Mu ngeilou piin leng amah na it ua, tuin mu kei mahle uchin leng, amah na gingta ua, kipahna gen tuan theih louh leh thupitakin na kipak mahmah jel uhi;

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

⁹na gintak pen uh, na kha uh hotdamna tak, muin.

⁹Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

¹⁰Huai hotdamna thu tuh huai jawlneite hehpihna na kiang ua hongtung ding thu genkholten, a Kankan ua, siamnel takin a zong khia ua:

¹⁰Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

¹¹Kris kha amaua omin Kris thuakna ding leh, huaizoha thupina honjui dingte a theihkholh sak laiin, bang hun ahia, bangchibang hun ahia, a theihsak chih zonkhiak tum in.

¹¹Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

¹²Huai thuin amau nasep kisep louin, noumau nasep a sem jaw uh chih a kiang uah theihsak ahita, huai thute tuh van akipana sawlkhiak Kha Siangthou panpih in tanchinhoih nou honhilhten tuin a honhilh ua, huai thilte tuh angelten leng vel a ut uhi.

¹²Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

¹³Huajiakin na lungsim puan uh tengin pilvang unla, Jesu Kris kilak chiangin hehpihna nou a honpuak ding tak lungke lou in lamen jel un;

¹³Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

¹⁴ta thumangte bangin, na theihlouh lai ua na nidang lai duhgawlna uh banga omlou in;

¹⁴As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:

¹⁵nou honsampa a siangthou bangin nou leng na tatdan tengteng uah hong siangthou jaw un;

¹⁵But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

¹⁶Noute na siangthou ding uh ahi, kei ka siangthou ngala, chih gelh ahi.

¹⁶Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

¹⁷Huan, khentuam neiloua michih nasep bang chiata ngaihtuahpa tuh Pa banga na loh uleh, hiailaia na tam laiteng un laudansiam in om un;

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

¹⁸na pipute uh piaksawn, na awmdan uh bangmah hilou khawng a kipan, thil sethei, dangka leh dangkaeng a tat na hikei ua,

¹⁸Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

¹⁹Belamnou gensiatbei leh ninbanglou sisan bang a, Kris sisan pha a tat nahi zaw uh chih nathei ngalua;

¹⁹But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

²⁰Amahtuh leilung pianma in sehkhawlh in a om ngeitak a, himahleh, hun nanungte ah noumau ziakin kilak in a om hi;

²⁰Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

²¹Amahziakin misilak akipan kaithoupa leh a thuipina pepa Pathian gingtate na hi uhi, na ginna uhleh na lametna uh Pathian a aom theihna ding in.

²¹Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

²²Unaute it taktak dinga thutak juia na kha uh na hihsiangthou tak jiak un lungtanga phatuamngai takin kiit tuah chiat un;

²²Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

²³chi sethei lakah hi louin, Pathian thu hing gige leh om gige ah, chi se theilou laka piang thak na hi zaw ngal ua.

²³Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

²⁴Mi tengteng tuh loupa bang ahi ua, a thupina tengteng uleng loupa pak bang ahi. Loupa tuh a vuaia, a paka pulha,Toupa bel khantawnin a om gige ahi, chih ahi ngala. Huaituh ahi, tanchin hoih thu nou a honhilh uh.

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

²⁵Toupa bel khantawnin a om gige ahi, chih ahi ngala. Huaituh ahi, tanchin hoih thu nou a honhilh uh.

²⁵But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.
