1Toe pai' kuparesai' -koi ompi': bahaka-mi butu nyala kehi to dada'a pai' hawe'ea lolita-ni to boa'. Neo' -pokoi mebagiu, neo' mohingi', neo' mporuge' doo.
1Laying aside therefore all malice and all guile and hypocrisies and envyings and all evil speakings,
2Hewa ana'lei to lako' putu to mpokahina ue tii', koi' wo'o kana mpokahina pongkoni' kao' -ni, tetu-mi Lolita Pue'. Bona ngkai Lolita Pue' toe kamoroo-rohoa pai' kamonoo-notoa katuwua' kao' -ni.
2as newborn babes desire earnestly the pure mental milk of the word, that by it ye may grow up to salvation,
3Neo' nibahakai mpokahina Lolita Pue' toe, lawi' nirasai-mi kalompe' nono-na.
3if indeed ye have tasted that the Lord [is] good.
4Pue' Yesus rarapai' -ki hameha' watu to tuwu'. Watu toe ratadi manusia', apa' ra'uli' uma ria kalaua-na. Tapi' hi poncilo Alata'ala, watu toei masuli' lia oli-na, pai' Alata'ala mpopelihi watu toei jadi' poko parawatu. Pai' koi' wo'o, ompi' -ompi' tumai-mokoi hi Pue',
4To whom coming, a living stone, cast away indeed as worthless by men, but with God chosen, precious,
5bona napajadi' -koi hewa watu-watu to tuwu' to rapake' mpowangu tomi pepuea' hi Alata'ala. Napajadi' wo'o-koi imam-imam to moroli'. Apa' hewa imam mpotonu pepue' hi Alata'ala, wae wo'o koi' mpotonu nono-ni hi Alata'ala, niponcawa pepue' -ni hi Hi'a. Pai' pepue' -ni toe bate mpakagoe' nono-na, sabana petauntongoi' -na Yesus Kristus.
5yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6Hi rala Buku Tomoroli', Magau' Topetolo' rarapai' -ki watu to napelihi Alata'ala, hewa toi moni-na: Hilo! Kupelihi hameha' watu to masuli' oli-na, kuhu'a hi Bulu' Sion, kupajadi' poko parawatu. Hema-hema to mepangala' hi watu toei, uma-ra mpai' hala'nawu'."
6Because it is contained in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Zion a corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believes on him shall not be put to shame.
7Magau' Topetolo' toei hewa watu to masuli' oli-na hi koi' to mpopangala' -i. Aga tauna to uma mpopangala' -i bate mporata silaka, alaa-na madupa' -mi lolita Buku Tomoroli' to mpo'uli': Watu toe ratadi topowangu tomi. Ntaa' we'i, watu toe lau-idi to jadi' poko parawatu-e."
7To you therefore who believe [is] the preciousness; but to the disobedient, the stone which the builders cast away as worthless, this is become head of [the] corner,
8"Watu toe jadi' watu katewincia' -ra, pai' watu katehopoa' -ra."
8and a stone of stumbling and rock of offence; [who] stumble at the word, being disobedient to which also they have been appointed.
9Aga koi' ompi' -ompi', napelihi-moko-koina Alata'ala, napajadi' -koi imam-imam to mpokamu bago mpepue' hi Magau' -ta. Napatani' -koi jadi' bagia-na pai' ntodea-na to moroli'. Nababehi toe bona koi' mpopalele hi hawe'ea tauna babehia-na to mobaraka', nitutura-raka kanakio' -ni malai ngkai kabengia-na mesua' hi rala kabajaa-na to uma mowo kalompe' -na.
9But *ye* [are] a chosen race, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a people for a possession, that ye might set forth the excellencies of him who has called you out of darkness to his wonderful light;
10Owi, bela-koi bagia-na, aga wae lau napobagia-mokoi. Owi-koi uma mpo'incai pe'ahi' -na, aga wae lau ni'inca-mi pe'ahi' -na.
10who once [were] not a people, but now God's people; who were not enjoying mercy, but now have found mercy.
11Ompi' -ompi' to kupe'ahi'! Katuwu' -ta hi rala dunia' toi, hewa tauna to mesowo' pai' hewa tauna to liu-ta-wadi, apa' mo'oha' -ta hi olo' tauna to uma-ra mepangala' hi Pue'. Toe pai' kuparesai' -koi: neo' mpotuku' kahinaa nono-ni to dada'a, apa' kahinaa to dada'a toe mosisala hante kalompea' tuwu' kao' -ni.
11Beloved, I exhort [you], as strangers and sojourners, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
12Pontu-na ria tauna to uma mpo'incai Pue' to mpobalihi-koi, ra'uli' dada'a gau' -ni. Toe pai' kana nipelompehi mpu'u po'ingku-ni, bona rahilo kalompe' po'ingku-ni toe. Ka'omea-na mpai', rapangaku' -mi kalompe' po'ingku-ni, pai' mpo'une' Alata'ala-ramo hi eo karata-na.
12having your conversation honest among the Gentiles, that [as to that] in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may through [your] good works, [themselves] witnessing [them], glorify God in [the] day of visitation.
13Kana mengkoru-ta hi hawe'ea topoparenta to rapakatantu manusia', apa' toe-mi konoa Pue'. Mengkoru hi magau' bohe, apa' lawi' hi'a-mi to hi wongko-na mpu'u.
13Be in subjection [therefore] to every human institution for the Lord's sake; whether to [the] king as supreme,
14Mengkoru hi gubernur, apa' lawi' hi'a to napopale magau' mpohuku' tauna to dada'a gau' -ra pai' mpo'une' tauna to lompe' gau' -ra.
14or to rulers as sent by him, for vengeance on evildoers, and praise to them that do well.
15Apa' toe-mi konoa Pue', bona ngkai kalompe' po'ingku-ta, tauna to uma mpo'incai Pue', uma-rapa daho' mpobalihi-ta, apa' monoto-mi ka'uma-na makono pebalihi-ra toe.
15Because so is the will of God, that by well-doing ye put to silence the ignorance of senseless men;
16Kakoo-kono-na, kita' to Kristen, uma-tapa napobatua jeko', apa' Alata'ala mpobahaka-tamo ngkai kuasa jeko'. Aga kabela-ta batua toe neo' -hawo tapo'ohea mpobabehi to dada'a. Agina mpotuku' konoa Alata'ala-tamo, apa' lawi' batua-na mpu'u-tamo.
16as free, and not as having liberty as a cloak of malice, but as God's bondmen.
17Saile' hawe'ea tauna. Poka'ahi' ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta, pengkorui Alata'ala, pai' bila' magau' -ta.
17Shew honour to all, love the brotherhood, fear God, honour the king.
18Batua-batua, pengkorui pai' bila' maradika-ni, uma wule' hi maradika-ni to lompe' pai' to mo'olu kehi-ra. Bangku' maradika-ni to seke-e', bate nipengkorui-ra.
18Servants, [be] subject with all fear to your masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the ill-tempered.
19Ane ria-koi to nabalinai' maradika-ni nau' uma ria sala' -ni, pai' ane ntaha-koi mpokolo kaparia toe apa' mpokiwoi-koi konoa Alata'ala, bate nagane' -koi Alata'ala.
19For this [is] acceptable, if one, for conscience sake towards God, endure griefs, suffering unjustly.
20Ha na'une' -koi mpai' Alata'ala ane mosabara-koi mpengkatarii kaparia to nirata apa' masala' -koie? Uma-hawo. Tapi' ane mporata-koi kaparia sabana po'ingku-ni to lompe' pai' mosabara-koi mpokolo kaparia toe, bate nagane' -koi Alata'ala.
20For what glory [is it], if sinning and being buffeted ye shall bear [it]? but if, doing good and suffering, ye shall bear [it], this is acceptable with God.
21Apa' toe-mile pai' nakio' -koi Alata'ala-e: nakio' -koi bona mo'ingku lompe', nau' -koi rabalinai'. Apa' Kristus wo'o mporata kaparia sabana koi', pai' nawai' -koi tonco bona nituku' laa' -na.
21For to this have ye been called; for Christ also has suffered for you, leaving you a model that ye should follow in his steps:
22Uma-i ria mpobabehi jeko', uma ria lolita boa' to howa' ngkai wiwi-na.
22who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth;
23Ralibui' -i, uma-i mehawa mpolibui' -ra. Rasesa' -i, uma-i metipo'. Mpotonu tuwu' -nai-wadi hi Alata'ala, Topobotuhi to monoa'.
23who, [when] reviled, reviled not again; [when] suffering, threatened not; but gave [himself] over into the hands of him who judges righteously;
24Nakolo huku' jeko' -ta hi woto-na moto hi karapatehi-na hi kaju parika', bona tebahaka-ta ngkai kuasa jeko' pai' tuwu' ntuku' konoa Alata'ala-tamo. Ngkai weho-na toe-mi pai' alaa-na mo'uri' -mokoi.
24who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, in order that, being dead to sins, we may live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye have been healed.
25Owi hewa bima to puha-koi. Aga tempo toi nculii' -mokoi hi Topo'ewu to mpewili' kao' -ni.
25For ye were going astray as sheep, but have now returned to the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
