1 Peter 3
Maori Bible
3 Waihoki e nga wahine, kia ngohengohe ki a koutou tane ake; a ki te turi etahi ki te kupu, na, i kore i te kupu, ko te whakahaere a nga wahine hei mea e riro mai ai ratou;
2 I a ratou e titiro ana ki te hekore o ta koutou whakahaere me te hopohopo.
3 Ko te whakapaipai mo koutou, kauaka hei to waho, kauaka hei te makawe i whiria, kauaka hei te whakapiringa o nga mea koura, kauaka hei te whakakakahuranga o nga kakahu;
4 Engari hei te tangata ngaro o te ngakau, hei te kakahu e kore e pirau, ara te wairua mahaki, te wairua rangimarie, he mea utu nui hoki tenei i te aroaro o te Atua.
5 He penei hoki i mua ta nga wahine tapu whakapaipai mo ratou, ta te hunga i whakaaro ki te Atua, ngohengohe tonu ratou ki a ratou tane ake:
6 Me Hera hoki i ngohengohe ki a Aperahama, ko te ariki hoki tana ingoa mona: nana hoki koutou tamariki, i a koutou e mahi pai ana, kahore hoki e mataku i tetahi whakapawera.
7 E nga tane hoki, kia rite ki to te matauranga to koutou noho ki a ratou, whakawhiwhia te wahine ki te honore, ko te mea kahakore hoki ia, ka uru tahi nei ano hoki korua ki te oranga ka homai noa nei; he mea kei araia a korua inoi.
8 Na, ko te whakamutunga nei o taku, kia kotahi te whakaaro o te katoa, kia kotahi te ngakau, kia rite te aroha ki to te tuakana, ki to te teina, kia pai te ngakau, kia ngawari:
9 Kaua e utua he kino ki te kino, he taunu ki te taunu: engari me manaaki: me te mahara ano kua karangatia koutou ki tenei, ara kia whiwhi koutou ki te manaaki.
10 Ki te mea hoki tetahi kia aroha ki te ora, kia kite i nga ra pai, me pehi e ia tona arero kei kino, ona ngutu hoki kei korero tinihanga;
11 Me peka ke i te kino, me mahi i te pai; ko te rangimarie hei rapunga mana, hei whainga atu mana.
12 No te mea hoki kei runga i te hunga tika nga kanohi o te Ariki, me ona taringa kei te tuwhera ki a ratou inoi: e he mai ana ia te mata o te Ariki ki te hunga e mahi ana i te kino.
13 Ko wai hoki hei homai i te he ki a koutou, ki te aru koutou i te pai?
14 Otiia ki te mea na te whakaaro ki te tika i whakamamaetia ai koutou, ka hari koutou: aua ra e mataku i ta ratou whakamataku, kaua e pawera;
15 Engari whakatapua a te Karaiti hei Ariki i roto i o koutou ngakau: kia rite tonu hoki te kupu i a koutou i nga wa katoa, hei whakahokinga atu ma koutou ki nga tangata katoa, e ui ana ki a koutou ki te mea e tumanakohia atu nei e koutou; kia maha ki ano ia te ngakau, kia wehi:
16 Kia pai o koutou hinengaro; mo ta ratou ngautuara ki a koutou, e ki nei he kaimahi koutou i te kino, kia whakama taua hunga e whakapae teka na ki ta koutou whakahaere pai i roto i a te Karaiti.
17 Ki te mea hoki i a tatou e mahi ana i te pai ka takoto i te Atua he mamae mo tatou, erangi tera i te mamae i a tatou e mahi ana i te kino.
18 Kotahi hoki whakamamaetanga o te Karaiti mo nga hara, te tika mo te hunga he, kia arahina ai tatou e ia ki te Atua, i whakamatea ko te kikokiko, i whakaorangia ia ko te wairua:
19 Ko tona ano tena i tona haerenga ki te kauwhau ki nga wairua i te whare herehere:
20 I turi nei i mua, i te mea e tatari ana te manawanui o te Atua i nga ra i a Noa, i te mea e hanga ana te aaka, ko te mea i ora ai etahi wairua torutoru nei, ara tokowaru, i roto i te wai.
21 He mea whakarite ki tenei te mea e whakaora nei i a koutou inaianei, ara te iriiri, ehara i te whakawateatanga atu i te poke o te kikokiko, engari he whakaaetanga ake na te hinengaro pai ki te Atua, he meatanga na te aranga mai o Ihu Karaiti:
22 Kua riro nei ki te rangi, kei te ringa matau ano ia o te Atua; kei raro hoki i a ia nga anahera, nga rangatiratanga, nga kaha.
1 Peter 3
New International Version
1 Peter 3
New International Version
3 Wives, in the same way submit yourselves(A) to your own husbands(B) so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over(C) without words by the behavior of their wives, 2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. 3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.(D) 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self,(E) the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.(F) 5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God(G) used to adorn themselves.(H) They submitted themselves to their own husbands, 6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord.(I) You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.
7 Husbands,(J) in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.
Suffering for Doing Good
8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded,(K) be sympathetic, love one another,(L) be compassionate and humble.(M) 9 Do not repay evil with evil(N) or insult with insult.(O) On the contrary, repay evil with blessing,(P) because to this(Q) you were called(R) so that you may inherit a blessing.(S) 10 For,
“Whoever would love life
and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
and their lips from deceitful speech.
11 They must turn from evil and do good;
they must seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”[a](T)
13 Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?(U) 14 But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed.(V) “Do not fear their threats[b]; do not be frightened.”[c](W) 15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer(X) to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope(Y) that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, 16 keeping a clear conscience,(Z) so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.(AA) 17 For it is better, if it is God’s will,(AB) to suffer for doing good(AC) than for doing evil. 18 For Christ also suffered once(AD) for sins,(AE) the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God.(AF) He was put to death in the body(AG) but made alive in the Spirit.(AH) 19 After being made alive,[d] he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits(AI)— 20 to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently(AJ) in the days of Noah while the ark was being built.(AK) In it only a few people, eight in all,(AL) were saved(AM) through water, 21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you(AN) also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience(AO) toward God.[e] It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,(AP) 22 who has gone into heaven(AQ) and is at God’s right hand(AR)—with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.(AS)
