1 Peter 4
Maori Bible
4 Na, kua mamae nei o te Karaiti kikokiko mo tatou, e mau koutou ki nga ea whawhai, ara ki taua whakaaro pu ra ano: ko te tangata hoki kua mamae te kikokiko kua mutu te hara;
2 Mo te wa e toe nei o te noho ki te kikokiko kia kaua i runga i nga hiahia o te tangata, engari i ta te Atua i pai ai.
3 Kati hoki ma tatou ko te wahi o to tatou ora kua pahemo nei, hei mahinga ma tatou i ta nga tauiwi i pai ai, i a tatou i haere i runga i te hiahia taikaha, i nga minamina, i te haurangi waina, i te kakai, i te inu, i te karakia whakarihariha ki ng a whakapakoko:
4 he mea hou tenei ki a ratou, ara to koutou kahore e rere tahi, e torere ki taua kino: a korero kino iho mo koutou:
5 Me korero ana ratou i a ratou mahi ki a ia, e noho rite nei ki te whakawa i te hunga ora, i te hunga mate.
6 Mo konei ra i kauwhautia ai ano te rongopai ki te hunga kua mate, kia whakahengia ratou, ara te kikokiko i runga i ta te tangata, kia ora ia ratou, ara te wairua i runga i ta te Atua.
7 Kua tata ia te whakamutunga o nga mea katoa: na, kia whai whakaaro koutou, kia mataara, kia inoi.
8 I te tuatahi o nga mea katoa arohaina putia koutou e koutou ano: he tini hoki nga hara ka hipokina e te aroha.
9 Whakamanuhiritia tetahi e tetahi; kaua e amuamu.
10 Ko te mea kua riro noa i tetahi, i tetahi, meatia atu ano e koutou ma tetahi, ma tetahi, kia rite ki ta nga tuari pai o nga homaitanga maha a te Atua.
11 Ki te korero tetahi, kia rite tana ki ta nga kupu a te Atua; ki te minita tetahi, kia rite tana ki to te kaha e homai ana e te Atua: kia whai kororia ai te Atua i nga mea katoa i roto i a Ihu Karaiti; kei a ia te kororia me te mana ake ake. Amin e.
12 E oku hoa aroha, kaua e kiia he hanga hou te tahunga i roto i a koutou hei whakamatautau i a koutou; ano he mea hou tenei kua pa ki a koutou:
13 Engari ka uru nei koutou ki nga mamae o te Karaiti, kia hari koutou; he mea hoki e hari ai koutou, whakamanamana rawa, a te whakakitenga mai o tona kororia.
14 Ki te tawaia koutou mo te ingoa o te Karaiti, ka hari koutou; no te mea e tau ana te Wairua o te kororia, me te Wairua o te Atua ki runga ki a koutou.
15 Kaua ia tetahi o koutou e whakamamaetia mo te mahi patu tangata, mo te tahae, mo te mahi i te kino, mo te pokanoa ki a era meatanga.
16 Ki te whakamamaetia ia tetahi mo te ki he Karaitiana ia, kaua ia e whakama; engari he mea tenei e whakakororia ai ia i te Atua.
17 Ko te wa hoki tenei e timata ai te whakawa ki te whare o te Atua: ki te mea hoki kei a tatou te tuatahi, he pehea ra te whakamutunga ki te hunga e kore e tahuri ki te rongopai o te Atua?
18 A ki te mea ka ora noa te tangata tika, kei hea he putanga mo te tangata karakiakore, mo te tangata hara?
19 Na, ko te hunga ano kua pai nei te Atua kia whakamamaetia ratou, me tuku e ratou o ratou wairua ki a ia, ara ki te Kaihanga pono, me te mahi ano ia i te pai.

New International Version
Living for God
4 Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body,(A) arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin.(B) 2 As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for evil human desires,(C) but rather for the will of God. 3 For you have spent enough time in the past(D) doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry.(E) 4 They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild living, and they heap abuse on you.(F) 5 But they will have to give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.(G) 6 For this is the reason the gospel was preached even to those who are now dead,(H) so that they might be judged according to human standards in regard to the body, but live according to God in regard to the spirit.
7 The end of all things is near.(I) Therefore be alert and of sober mind(J) so that you may pray. 8 Above all, love each other deeply,(K) because love covers over a multitude of sins.(L) 9 Offer hospitality(M) to one another without grumbling.(N) 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others,(O) as faithful(P) stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God.(Q) If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides,(R) so that in all things God may be praised(S) through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.(T)
Suffering for Being a Christian
12 Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you(U) to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice(V) inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ,(W) so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.(X) 14 If you are insulted because of the name of Christ,(Y) you are blessed,(Z) for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. 15 If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. 16 However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.(AA) 17 For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household;(AB) and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?(AC) 18 And,
“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”[a](AD)
19 So then, those who suffer according to God’s will(AE) should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
