¹Sura toi ngkai aku', Petrus, suro Yesus Kristus, kupakatu tilou hi koi' ompi' -ompi' to napelihi-mokoi Alata'ala, pai' to pahawu' -hawu' hi propinsi Pontus, Galatia, Kapadokia, Asia pai' Bitinia, pai' to mesowo' hi olo' tauna to uma mpo'incai Alata'ala.

¹Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the chosen ones who are living as foreigners in the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

²Napelihi-koi Alata'ala to Tuama apa' wae-mi patuju-na ngkai lomo' -na. Napelihi-koi hante pobago Inoha' Tomoroli' to mpopajadi' -koi bagia-na, alaa-na mengkoru-mokoi hi Yesus Kristus pai' napomoroli' -mokoi hante raa' -na. Wori' tabe: mekakae-a hi Alata'ala bona nawai' -koi kawoo-woria' gane' -na pai' kalompea' tuwu'.

²according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with his blood: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

³Mai-tamo mpo'une' Alata'ala, Tuama-na Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus! Ngkai pe'ahi' -na to bohe, nawai' -tamo katuwua' to bo'u, pai' katuwua' to bo'u toe tarata ngkai katuwu' -na nculii' Yesus Kristus. Toe pai' moroho poncarumaka-ta.

³Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy became our father again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

⁴Tasarumaka Alata'ala mpowai' -ta rasi' to naporodo hi hawe'ea ana' -na. Rasi' toe, to uma mogero ba mobali' ba jadi' pope, apa' natimamahi-taka hi suruga.

⁴to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you,

⁵Hawe'ea toe ompi', bate nipobagia, apa' mepangala' -mokoi hi Alata'ala pai' napewili' -koi hante baraka' -na bona mporata-koi mpai' kalompea' to rodo ami' -mi nawai' -kokoi hi Eo Kiama.

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

⁶Ngkai toe-mi ompi', pai' kana goe' oa' -koi. Nau' tempo toi susa' nono-ni apa' wori' nyala pesori mporumpa' -koi, goe' moto nono-ni, apa' kasusaa' -ni toe hangkale'liu-wadi,

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

⁷pai' patuju-na bona rapongincai karoho pepangala' -ni. Bulawa raparesa' hante apu raponciloi-ki ba bulawa mpu'u-idi ba bela-di. Pai' pepangala' -ni toe, meliu kasuli' oli-na ngkai bulawa, apa' bulawa uma tida duu' kahae-hae-na. Jadi', hewa bulawa raparesa' hante apu, wae wo'o pepangala' -ni raparesa' hante pesori. Bona ane monoto mpu'u-damo pepangala' -ni, ra'une', rabila' pai' rapomolangko-koi mpai', nto'u karata-na nculii' Yesus Kristus hi dunia' toi.

⁷that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found to result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ—

⁸Yesus Kristus toei, nau' ko'ia-i ria nihiloi owi, nipoka'ahi' -imi. Nau' uma-i nihiloi wae lau, nipangala' -imi. Toe pai' goe' nono-ni, pai' kagoe' nono-ni toe uma-pi hudu ra'uli', apa' bohe mpu'u.

⁸whom not having known you love; in whom, though now you don’t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy unspeakable and full of glory—

⁹Goe' -koi, apa' nirata-mi wua' pepangala' -ni, toe-mi kalompea' tuwu' kao' -ni.

⁹receiving the result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

¹¹Nabi-nabi to owi mpolowa ami' -mi beiwa Alata'ala mpopohiloi-koi ahi' -na hi tempo toi. Ngkai petete' Inoha' Kristus to hi rala nono-ra, Alata'ala mpopo'incai ami' -ramo kaparia to mporumpa' woto Kristus mpai', pai' kabohe tuwu' to narata ane timpaliu-damo kaparia-na toe. Aga nabi to owi toera, uma ra'incai beiwa kadupa' -na to ralowa toe. Toe pai' rapewulihi' mpu'u, doko' ra'inca ba nto'uma pai' beiwa kadupa' -na hawe'ea to ralowa toe.

¹⁰Concerning this salvation, the prophets sought and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,

¹²Alata'ala mpo'uli' -raka nabi toera: napa to ralowa toe, bela hi hira' moto kadungkua-na. To ralowa toe, hi koi' -hana kadungkua-na. Pai' hewa toe lau, napa to ralowa nabi to owi toera, raparata-mi hante kanoto-noto-na hi koi', apa' ria-mi tauna to mpoparata-kokoi Kareba Lompe' hante baraka' Inoha' Tomoroli' to ngkai Alata'ala. Bangku' mala'eka-hawoe', doko' lia-ra-rawo mpewulihi' kalompea' to nirata-mi toe-e ompi'.

¹¹searching for who or what kind of time the Spirit of Christ, which was in them, pointed to, when he predicted the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that would follow them.

¹³Jadi' ompi' -ompi', apa' ria-mi poncarumakaa-ni to moroho toe-e, toe pai' ku'uli' -kokoi: pakanoto-mi nono-ni, neo' lempe', pai' ncarumaka mpu'u-mokoi hi rasi' to rawai' -kokoi ane rata nculii' -ipi mpai' Yesus Kristus.

¹²To them it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you, they ministered these things, which now have been announced to you through those who preached the Good News to you by the Holy Spirit sent out from heaven; which things angels desire to look into.

¹⁴Apa' lawi' napo'ana' -mokoi Alata'ala-e, tuku' -mi hawa' -na, neo' -pi ntora mpotuku' konoa-ni moto hewa owi nto'u-ni hi rala kabengia-na-pidi.

¹³Therefore prepare your minds for action, literally, “gird up the waist of your mind” or “put on the belt of the waist of your mind” be sober and set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ—

¹⁵Kana moroli' -koi hi butu nyala akeka-ni, apa' Alata'ala, moroli' -i-hana, pai' nakio' -koi bona mpotuku' kehi-na.

¹⁴as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,

¹⁶Apa' ria Lolita Alata'ala to te'uki' owi to mpo'uli': "Kana moroli' -koi, apa' Aku' toi moroli' -a."

¹⁵but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;

¹⁷Ompi' -ompi', mo'oha' -koi hi dunia' toi hewa tauna to liu-wadi. Pai' ane mosampaya-koi hi Alata'ala, ni'uli' Kahi'a-na Tuama-ni. Toe pai' kana mengkoru-koi hi Alata'ala bula-ni mo'oha' hi dunia' toi-pidi. Apa' Alata'ala to Nipotuama toei-e, Hi'a-mi Topohura to mpobotuhi kara-kara butu dua tauna ntuku' po'ingku-ra, uma-i-hana mpelence tauna.

¹⁶because it is written, “You shall be holy; for I am holy.” Leviticus 11:44-45

¹⁸Mengkoru-koi hi Alata'ala, apa' ni'inca moto napa pobayari-na Alata'ala bona mpobahaka-koi ngkai tuwu' -ni to ri'ulu. Tuwu' -ni to ri'ulu to nipososora ngkai ntu'a-ni toe, uma ria tuju-na. Aga Alata'ala mpobahaka-mokoi ngkai tuwu' -ni to ri'ulu toe, pai' pobayari-na bela rewa to uma tida duu' kahae-hae-na, hewa bulawa ba salaka',

¹⁷If you call on him as Father, who without respect of persons judges according to each man’s work, pass the time of your living as foreigners here in reverent fear:

¹⁹tapi' to masuli' lia oli-na, toe-mi raa' -na Kristus. Kristus toe raponcawa ana' bima to uma ria kasalaia' -na ba kakuraa' -na, to rasumale' jadi' tolo' woto-ni.

¹⁸knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers,

²⁰Kako'ia-na dunia' rapajadi', napakatantu ami' -mi Alata'ala Kayesus-na to jadi' Topetolo'. Aga lako' mehupa' -idi hi dunia' bona mpotolo' -koi hi eo-eo mpomohui' Eo Kiama toi-e.

¹⁹but with precious blood, as of a faultless and pure lamb, the blood of Christ;

²¹Ngkai Hi'a toe-mi pai' alaa-na mepangala' -mokoi hi Alata'ala. Alata'ala mpopotuwu' -i nculii' pai' nawai' -i kabohea tuwu' -na, alaa-na mepangala' pai' mesarumaka-mokoi hi Alata'ala.

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

²²Jadi' ompi' -ompi', nituku' -mi Kareba to makono, pai' nipakaroli' nono-ni bona ma'ala-koi mpoka'ahi' ompi' hampepangalaa' -ni hante nono-ni mpu'u. Toe pai' kuparesai' -koi bona momepoka'ahi' mpu'u-mpu'u-koi hadua pai' hadua hante karoli' -roli' nono-ni.

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

²³Apa' mporata katuwua' to bo'u-mokoi, pai' katuwua' -ni to bo'u toe, bela-pi ngkai manusia' to kana mate. Katuwua' -ni toe, ngkai Alata'ala to uma-hana ria kamatea-na. Mporata-koi katuwua' to bo'u toe, apa' mepangala' -mokoi hi Lolita Alata'ala to tuwu' pai' to tida duu' kahae-hae-na.

²²Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently:

²⁴Hewa to te'uki' hi rala Buku Tomoroli' owi: Katuwu' manusia' -le, hewa kowo', hawe'ea kancolaa-ra hewa sehe kowo'. Kowo' molaju, sehe-na roda',

²³having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which lives and remains forever.

²⁵aga Lolita Pue' tida duu' kahae-hae-na."

²⁴For, “All flesh is like grass, and all of man’s glory like the flower in the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls;

²⁵but the Lord’s word endures forever.” Isaiah 40:6-8 This is the word of Good News which was preached to you.
