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.

¹Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,

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 babies, long for the pure milk of the Word, that you may grow thereby,

³Neo' nibahakai mpokahina Lolita Pue' toe, lawi' nirasai-mi kalompe' nono-na.

³if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious:

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',

⁴coming to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, 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.

⁵You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through 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 Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen, and precious: He who believes in him will not be disappointed.” Isaiah 28:16

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."

⁷For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected, has become the chief cornerstone,” Psalm 118:22

⁸"Watu toe jadi' watu katewincia' -ra, pai' watu katehopoa' -ra."

⁸and, “a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.” Isaiah 8:14 For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were 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 you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous 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 in time past were no people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained 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 beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, 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 good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they see, 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.

¹³Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man 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 governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who 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.

¹⁵For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish 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 using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.

¹⁷Saile' hawe'ea tauna. Poka'ahi' ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta, pengkorui Alata'ala, pai' bila' magau' -ta.

¹⁷Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor 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 in subjection to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.

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 it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.

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, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable 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 you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you TR reads “us” instead of “you” an example, that you should follow his steps,

²²Uma-i ria mpobabehi jeko', uma ria lolita boa' to howa' ngkai wiwi-na.

²²who did not sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.” Isaiah 53:9

²³Ralibui' -i, uma-i mehawa mpolibui' -ra. Rasesa' -i, uma-i metipo'. Mpotonu tuwu' -nai-wadi hi Alata'ala, Topobotuhi to monoa'.

²³Who, when he was cursed, didn’t curse back. When he suffered, didn’t threaten, but committed himself to 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 his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.

²⁵Owi hewa bima to puha-koi. Aga tempo toi nculii' -mokoi hi Topo'ewu to mpewili' kao' -ni.

²⁵For you were going astray like sheep; but now have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer “Overseer” is from the Greek episkopon, which can mean overseer, curator, guardian, or superintendent. of your souls.
