1

Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

Daarom, alle boosheid, en alle bedrog, en geveinsdheid, en afguns, en alle kwaadsprekery aflêende,

2

As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

As pasgebore kindertjies, begeer die suiwer melk van die woord, dat julle daardeur mag groei:

3

If so be ye have tasted that the Lord [is] gracious.

As julle ten minste geproe het dat die Here goedertieren is.

4

To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious,

Tot wie komende, as tot ‚'n lewende steen, deur die mense verwerp, maar uitverkore van God, en kosbaar,

5

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Julle ook, as lewende stene, gebou word tot ‚'n geestelike huis, ‚'n heilige priesterdom, om geestelike offers op te offer, aangenaam tot God deur Jesus Christus.

6

Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.

Daarom is daar ook in die Skrif vervat, Kyk, ek lê in Sion ’n hoeksteen, uitverkore, kosbaar: en hy wat in Hom glo sal nie beskaamd word nie.

7

Unto you therefore which believe [he is] precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

Aan julle daarom wat glo is Hy kosbaar: maar aan hulle wat ongehoorsaam is, die steen wat die bouers verwerp het, dieselfde is die hoof van die hoek geword,

8

And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, [even to them] which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

En ‚'n steen van aanstoot, en ‚'n rots van struikeling, selfs aan hulle wat struikel by die woord, synde ongehoorsaam: waartoe hulle ook bestem is.

9

But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

Maar julle is ‚'n uitverkore geslag, ‚'n koninklike priesterdom, ‚'n heilige nasie, ‚'n eie volk; dat julle die deugde mag verkondig van Hom wat julle uit die duisternis geroep het tot sy wonderlike lig:

10

Which in time past [were] not a people, but [are] now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

Wat in die verlede nie ‚'n volk was nie, maar nou die volk van God is: wat nie barmhartigheid verkry het nie, maar nou barmhartigheid verkry het.

11

Dearly beloved, I beseech [you] as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

Geliefdes, ek bid julle as vreemdelinge en bywoners, onthou julle van vleeslike luste, wat stry teen die siel;

12

Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by [your] good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.

Julle wandel onder die heidene hebbende eerlik; dat, terwyl hulle julle as kwaaddoeners belaster, hulle deur julle goeie werke, wat hulle aanskou, God mag verheerlik in die dag van besoeking.

13

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;

Onderwerp julle daarom aan elke ordinansie van die mens om die Here ontwil: of dit aan die koning is, as opperheer;

14

Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.

Of aan goewerneurs, as dié wat deur hom gestuur word tot straf van kwaaddoeners, en tot lof van dié wat goed doen.

15

For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

Want so is die wil van God, dat julle met goeddoen die onkunde van dwase mense tot swye bring:

16

As free, and not using [your] liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

As vryes, en nie die vryheid gebruikende as ‚'n dekmantel van boosheid nie, maar as die dienaars van God.

17

Honour all [men]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

Eer almal. Het die broederskap lief. Vrees God. Eer die koning.

18

Servants, [be] subject to [your] masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

Diensknegte, wees onderdanig aan julle meesters met alle vrees; nie alleen aan die goeie en sagmoedige nie, maar ook aan die verkeerde.

19

For this [is] thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.

Want dit is dankwaardig, as ‚'n mens om die gewete teenoor God onreg verdra, lydende onverdiend.

20

For what glory [is it], if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer [for it], ye take it patiently, this [is] acceptable with God.

Want watter roem is dit, as julle, wanneer julle geslaan word vir julle oortredinge, dit verdra? maar as julle goed doen, en daarvoor ly, en dit verdra, dit is aangenaam by God.

21

For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

Want hiertoe is julle geroep: omdat Christus ook vir ons gely het, ons ‚'n voorbeeld nalatende, dat julle sy voetstappe sou navolg:

22

Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:

Wat geen sonde gedoen het nie, nóg is bedrog in sy mond gevind:

23

Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed [himself] to him that judgeth righteously:

Wat, toe Hy gesmaad is, nie weer gesmaad het nie; toe Hy gely het, nie gedreig het nie; maar Homself oorgegee het aan Hom wat regverdig oordeel:

24

Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Wat self ons sondes in sy eie liggaam aan die hout gedra het, dat ons, dood vir die sondes, tot die geregtigheid sou lewe: deur wie se wonde julle genees is.

25

For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

Want julle was soos skape wat dwaal; maar is nou teruggekeer tot die Herder en Opsiener van julle siele.
