¹Sidaas oo kalena, dumar yahow, nimankiinna ka dambeeya in xataa haddii qaar uusan erayga addeecin ay erayga la'aantiis ku soo hanuunsamaan dabiicadda afooyinkooda,

¹In like manner, the wives, be ye subject to your own husbands, that even if certain are disobedient to the word, through the conversation of the wives, without the word, they may be won,

²markay arkaan dabiicaddiinna daahirsan ee cabsida leh.

²having beheld your pure behaviour in fear,

³Isqurxintiinnu yaanay ahaan tan dibadda ah, oo ah timo tidcan, iyo dahab layska lulo, amase dhar la xidho,

³whose adorning — let it not be that which is outward, of plaiting of hair, and of putting around of things of gold, or of putting on of garments,

⁴laakiinse ha ahaato inta qalbiga ee qarsoon, taasoo leh wax aan baabba'ayn ee ah ruuxa qabow oo aamusan, kaasoo Ilaah hortiisa qiimo badan ku leh.

⁴but — the hidden man of the heart, in the incorruptible thing of the meek and quiet spirit, which is, before God, of great price,

⁵Waayo, sidaasoo kalaa waagii hore dumarkii quduuska ahaa oo Ilaah wax ka rajayn jiray ay isu qurxin jireen, iyagoo nimankoodii ka dambeeya.

⁵for thus once also the holy women who did hope on God, were adorning themselves, being subject to their own husbands,

⁶Saarahba sidaasoo kalay Ibraahim u addeeci jirtay, oo ay ugu yeedhi jirtay, Sayidow; oo idinna haddii aad wanaag fashaan oo aydnaan ka cabsan wixii argaggax leh waxaad tihiin carruurteeda.

⁶as Sarah was obedient to Abraham, calling him `sir,` of whom ye did become daughters, doing good, and not fearing any terror.

⁷Nimankow, idinkuna sidaas oo kale afooyinkiinna aqoon kula dhaqma sidii iyagoo ah weel tabardaran, oo iyaga maamuusa sida kuwa idinla dhaxla nimcada nolosha, si aan baryadiinna loo hor joogsan.

⁷The husbands, in like manner, dwelling with [them], according to knowledge, as to a weaker vessel — to the wife — imparting honour, as also being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.

⁸Ugu dambaysta, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Kulligiin isku maan ahaada, oo isu jixinjixa, oo sida walaalo isu jeclaada, oo isu naxariista, oo is-hoosaysiiya.

⁸And finally, being all of one mind, having fellow-feeling, loving as brethren, compassionate, courteous,

⁹Shar shar ha ka celinina, cayna cay ha ka celinina, laakiinse duco ka celiya, maxaa yeelay, saas aawadeed waxaa laydiinku yeedhay inaad barako dhaxashaan, waayo,

⁹not giving back evil for evil, or railing for railing, and on the contrary, blessing, having known that to this ye were called, that a blessing ye may inherit;

¹⁰Kii doonaya inuu nolol jeclaado, Oo arko maalmo wanaagsan, Carrabkiisa shar ha ka joojiyo, Bushimihiisana yaanay khiyaano ku hadlin.

¹⁰for `he who is willing to love life, and to see good days, let him guard his tongue from evil, and his lips — not to speak guile;

¹¹Oo ha ka leexdo shar, oo wanaag ha sameeyo; Nabad ha doondoono oo ha raacdaysto;

¹¹let him turn aside from evil, and do good, let him seek peace and pursue it;

¹²Waayo, Rabbiga indhihiisu waxay fiiriyaan kuwa xaqa ah, Dhegihiisuna waxay u furan yihiin baryadooda; Laakiin wejiga Rabbigu waa ka gees kuwa sharka sameeya.

¹²because the eyes of the Lord [are] upon the righteous, and His ears — to their supplication, and the face of the Lord [is] upon those doing evil;`

¹³Haddii aad waxa wanaagsan ku dadaashaan, bal yaa wax idin yeeli doona?

¹³and who [is] he who will be doing you evil, if of Him who is good ye may become imitators?

¹⁴Laakiinse xaqnimada daraaddeed haddii aad u xanuunsataan, waad barakaysan tihiin. Haddaba ha ka cabsanina cabsigelintooda, hana welwelina.

¹⁴but if ye also should suffer because of righteousness, happy [are ye]! and of their fear be not afraid, nor be troubled,

¹⁵Rabbiga Masiixa ah qalbiyadiinna quduus kaga dhiga, oo mar kasta diyaar u ahaada inaad u jawaabtaan nin alla ninkii wax idinka weyddiiya sabab ku saabsan rajada aad leedihiin, laakiinse qabow iyo cabsi ugu jawaaba,

¹⁵and the Lord God sanctify in your hearts. And [be] ready always for defence to every one who is asking of you an account concerning the hope that [is] in you, with meekness and fear;

¹⁶idinkoo qalbi wanaagsan leh, in markii wax xun laydinka sheego, ay ceeboobaan kuwa caaya dabiicaddiinna wanaagsan ee xagga Masiixa ah.

¹⁶having a good conscience, that in that in which they speak against you as evil-doers, they may be ashamed who are traducing your good behaviour in Christ;

¹⁷Waayo, haddii ay doonista Ilaah tahay, waxaa ka wanaagsan inaad samafalidda u xanuunsataan intii aad u xanuunsan lahaydeen sharfalidda.

¹⁷for [it is] better doing good, if the will of God will it, to suffer, than doing evil;

¹⁸Maxaa yeelay, Masiixba mar buu u xanuunsaday dembiyada. Isagoo xaq ah ayuu u xanuunsaday kuwa aan xaqa ahayn aawadood inuu inoo keeno Ilaah. Xagga jidhka waa laga dilay, laakiinse xagga ruuxa waa laga nooleeyey.

¹⁸because also Christ once for sin did suffer — righteous for unrighteous — that he might lead us to God, having been put to death indeed, in the flesh, and having been made alive in the spirit,

¹⁹Ruuxii ayuu ku tegey oo wuxuu wacdiyey ruuxyadii xabsigii ku jiray,

¹⁹in which also to the spirits in prison having gone he did preach,

²⁰kuwaas oo waagii hore ahaa caasiyiin markii dulqaadashada Ilaah ay sugaysay intii maalmihii Nuux oo la diyaarinayay doonnidii, taasoo ay biyihii kaga badbaadeen dhawr qof oo ah siddeed nafood oo keliya.

²⁰who sometime disbelieved, when once the long-suffering of God did wait, in days of Noah — an ark being preparing — in which few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water;

²¹Biyahaasuna waxay ka dhigan yihiin baabtiiska hadda idinku badbaadiya sarakicidda Ciise Masiix, oo aan ahayn ka fogaynta wasakhda jidhka, laakiinse waxaa weeye baryo ka timaada qalbi wanaagsan oo xagga Ilaah.Ciise Masiix jannaduu galay oo wuxuu joogaa gacanta midigta oo Ilaah, oo malaa'igaha iyo kuwa amarka leh iyo kuwa xoogga leh oo dhanba waa laga hoosaysiiyey isaga.

²¹also to which an antitype doth now save us — baptism, (not a putting away of the filth of flesh, but the question of a good conscience in regard to God,) through the rising again of Jesus Christ,

²²Ciise Masiix jannaduu galay oo wuxuu joogaa gacanta midigta oo Ilaah, oo malaa'igaha iyo kuwa amarka leh iyo kuwa xoogga leh oo dhanba waa laga hoosaysiiyey isaga.
