Therefore I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and who will also share in the glory that will be revealed:
Likewise, you younger ones, be subject to the elder. Yes, all of you clothe yourselves with humility and subject yourselves to one another; for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
5:6
አትሕቱእንከርእሰክሙታሕተእዴሁለእግዚአብሔርጽንዕትከመያልዕልክሙአመይሔውጸክሙ።
所以,你們要自卑,服在上帝大能的手下,到了時候,他必叫你們升高。
Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time,
5:7
ወኵሎኅሊናክሙግድፉላዕሌሁእስመውእቱይኄሊበእንቲኣክሙ።
你們要將一切的憂慮卸給上帝,因為他顧念你們。
casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
5:8
ጥበቡእንከወአጥብቡልበክሙእስመጸላኢክሙጋኔንይጥሕርከመአንበሳወየኀሥሥዘይውኅጥ።
務要謹守,警醒。因為你們的仇敵魔鬼,如同吼叫的獅子,遍地遊行,尋找可吞吃的人。
Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
5:11
ውእቱዘሎቱስብሐትወኀይልለዓለመዓለምአሜን።
願權能歸給他,直到永永遠遠。阿們!
To him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.
5:13
ትኤምኀክሙቤተክርስቲያንኅሪትእንተውስተባቢሎንዘግብጽወማርቆስወልድየ።
在巴比倫與你們同蒙揀選的教會問你們安。我兒子馬可也問你們安。
She who is in Babylon, chosen together with you, greets you. So does Mark, my son.
