1 T his letter is from Peter, a missionary of Jesus Christ. I am writing to those who were taken away from their homeland and are living in the countries of Pontus and Galatia and Cappadocia and Asia and Bithynia.

Anigoo ah Butros oo ah rasuulkii Ciise Masiix waxaan warqaddan u qorayaa qariibbada ku kala firidhsan Bontos, iyo Galatiya, iyo Kabbadokiya, iyo Aasiya, iyo Bituniya,

2 Y ou were chosen by God the Father long ago. He knew you were to become His children. You were set apart for holy living by the Holy Spirit. May you obey Jesus Christ and be made clean by His blood. May you be full of His loving-favor and peace.

oo lagu doortay aqoontii Ilaaha Aabbaha ahu hore u sii ogaa, oo quduus lagaga dhigay Ruuxa, xagga addeecidda iyo rushaynta dhiiggii Ciise Masiix. Nimco iyo nabadu ha idiin bateen. U Mahadnaqidda Rajada Masiixiyiinta Oo Ah Badbaadada

3 L et us thank the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It was through His loving-kindness that we were born again to a new life and have a hope that never dies. This hope is ours because Jesus was raised from the dead.

Ammaanu ha u ahaato Ilaaha ah Aabbaha Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix. Naxariistiisa badan aawadeed ayuu mar kale ina dhalay inaynu rajo nool ku helno sarakiciddii Ciise Masiix ka soo sara kacay kuwii dhintay,

4 W e will receive the great things that we have been promised. They are being kept safe in heaven for us. They are pure and will not pass away. They will never be lost.

oo aynu helno dhaxal aan dhammaanayn, oo aan nijaasoobayn, oo aan baabba'ayn, oo jannada laydiinku kaydiyey.

5 Y ou are being kept by the power of God because you put your trust in Him and you will be saved from the punishment of sin at the end of the world.

Idinku waxaad tihiin kuwo xoogga Ilaah iyo rumaysadka lagu dhawro ilaa badbaadada diyaarka u ah in wakhtiga ugu dambaysta la muujiyo.

6 W ith this hope you can be happy even if you need to have sorrow and all kinds of tests for awhile.

Taas waad ku faraxsan tihiin in kastoo, haddii ay waajib tahay, aad haatan wakhti yar ku murugootaan jirrabaaddo badan oo kala cayncayn ah.

7 T hese tests have come to prove your faith and to show that it is good. Gold, which can be destroyed, is tested by fire. Your faith is worth much more than gold and it must be tested also. Then your faith will bring thanks and shining-greatness and honor to Jesus Christ when He comes again.

Si loo tijaabiyo rumaysadkiinna, oo aad uga sii qaalisan dahabka oo ah wax baabba'a in kastoo dab lagu tijaabiyo. Markaasaa laga helayaa mahad iyo ammaan iyo ciso markii Ciise Masiix la muujiyo.

8 Y ou have never seen Him but you love Him. You cannot see Him now but you are putting your trust in Him. And you have joy so great that words cannot tell about it.

Isaga ma aydin arkin, waadse jeceshihiin, hadda in kastoo aydnaan arkin, waadse rumaysan tihiin, oo waxaad ku faraxdaan farxad aan la sheegi karin oo ammaan leh.

9 Y ou will get what your faith is looking for, which is to be saved from the punishment of sin.

Waxaadna helaysaan waxa rumaysadkiinnu ku dhammaado oo ah badbaadada naftiinna.

10 T he early preachers tried to find out how to be saved. They told of the loving-favor that would come to you.

Nebiyadii sii sheegay nimcada idiin imanaysa waxay doondooneen oo aad u raadiyeen wax ku saabsan badbaadadaas.

11 T he early preachers wondered at what time or to what person this would happen. The Spirit of Christ in them was talking to them and told them to write about how Christ would suffer and about His shining-greatness later on.

Waxayna raadiyeen wixii iyo wakhtigii Ruuxii Masiixa oo iyaga ku jiray uu u tilmaamay markuu horay uga sii markhaati furay waxyaalaha Masiixu ku xanuunsan doono iyo waxyaalaha ammaanta ah oo iyaga ka daba iman doona.

12 T hey knew these things would not happen during the time they lived but while you are living many years later. These are the very things that were told to you by those who preached the Good News. The Holy Spirit Who was sent from heaven gave them power and they told of things that even the angels would like to know about. Holy Living

Oo waxaa iyagii loo muujiyey inaanay iyagu isugu adeegin waxyaalahaas, laakiinse idinkay idiinku adeegeen, oo waxyaalahaas waxaa idin ogaysiiyey kuwii injiilka idinkaga wacdiyey Ruuxa Quduuska ah ee jannada laga soo diray; waxyaalahaas oo ay malaa'iguhuna jecel yihiin inay fiiriyaan. Waa In Si Quduus Ah Loo Socdo

13 G et your minds ready for good use. Keep awake. Set your hope now and forever on the loving-favor to be given you when Jesus Christ comes again.

Haddaba isku giijiya guntiga maankiinna, dhug yeesha, oo aad u rajeeya nimcada laydiin keeni doono markii Ciise Masiix la muujiyo.

14 B e like children who obey. Do not desire to sin like you used to when you did not know any better.

Idinkoo ah carruur addeec leh ha raacina damacyadiinnii hore oo aad ku samayseen jaahilnimadiinnii;

15 B e holy in every part of your life. Be like the Holy One Who chose you.

laakiinse siduu kan idiin yeedhay quduuska u yahay, idinkuna sidaas oo kale dabiicaddiinna oo dhan quduus ku ahaada,

16 T he Holy Writings say, “You must be holy, for I am holy.”

maxaa yeelay, waxaa qoran, Idinku waa inaad quduus ahaataan, waayo, aniguba quduus baan ahay.

17 T he Father is the One Who judges you by what you do. He does not respect one person more than another. If you call Him Father, be sure you honor Him with love and fear all the days of your life here on earth.

Haddaad Aabbow ugu yeedhaan kan nin walbaba u xukuma eexashola'aan iyo sida shuqulkiisu yahay, cabsi Ilaah isku dhaafiya wakhtiga aad qariibka tihiin.

18 Y ou know you were not bought and made free from sin by paying gold or silver which comes to an end. And you know you were not saved from the punishment of sin by the way of life that you were given from your early fathers. That way of life was worth nothing.

Waxaad og tihiin inaan dabiicaddiinnii bilaashka ahayd oo aad awowayaashiin ka dhaxasheen laydinkaga soo furan waxyaalaha baabba'aya oo ah sida lacagta iyo dahabka,

19 T he blood of Christ saved you. This blood is of great worth and no amount of money can buy it. Christ was given as a lamb without sin and without spot.

laakiinse waxaa laydinku soo furtay dhiiggii qaaliga ahaa oo Masiix oo ah sidii wan yar oo aan wax ceeb ah iyo iin toona lahayn.

20 L ong before the world was made, God chose Christ to be given to you in these last days.

Isaga horaa loo yiqiin intaan dunida la aasaasin, laakiinse wakhtiyadii dhammaadkoodii ayaa loo muujiyey idinka aawadiin,

21 B ecause of Christ, you have put your trust in God. He raised Christ from the dead and gave Him great honor. So now your faith and hope are in God. The Living Word

idinkoo isaga aawadiis ku ah kuwa rumaysan Ilaaha isaga ka soo sara kiciyey kuwii dhintay oo ammaanay isaga, in rumaysadkiinna iyo rajadiinnu ay Ilaah ku xidhnaadaan aawadeed.

22 Y ou have made your souls pure by obeying the truth through the Holy Spirit. This has given you a true love for the Christians. Let it be a true love from the heart.

Sidaad naftiinna u daahiriseen markaad addeecdeen runta xagga jacaylka walaalnimada oo aan iska yeelyeel ahayn, aad iyo aad qalbiga isaga jeclaada.

23 Y ou have been given a new birth. It was from a seed that cannot die. This new life is from the Word of God which lives forever.

Idinka mar kale laydinkuma dhalin abuur baabba'aya, laakiinse waxaa laydinku dhalay abuur aan baabba'ayn oo ah erayga Ilaah oo nool oo waara.

24 A ll people are like grass. Their greatness is like the flowers. The grass dries up and the flowers fall off.

Waayo, Wax kasta oo jiidh lahu waa sida caws oo kale, Oo quruxdiisa oo dhammuna waa sida ubaxa duurka oo kale, Haddaba cawsku wuu engegaa, ubaxuna wuu dhacaa;

25 B ut the Word of the Lord will last forever. That Word is the Good News which was preached to you.

Laakiinse erayga Rabbigu weligiisba wuu waaraa. Haddaba kaasu waa eraygii warka wanaagsanaa oo laydinku wacdiyey.
