Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling)

Aan U, Here, behoort die heerskappy; U is bo almal verhewe.

1 Kronieke 29:11

Onderwerp julle daarom in nederigheid aan die kragtige hand van God, sodat Hy julle kan verhoog op die tyd wat Hy bestem het.

1 Petrus 5:6

1 Kronieke 29 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

8 Wie edelstene by hom gehad het, het dit aan die Gersoniet Jegiël gegee vir die tempelskat.
9 Die volk was bly oor hulle gewilligheid, want hulle het die vrywillige gawes aan die Here met hulle hele hart gegee. Koning Dawid was ook baie bly.
10 Dawid het 'n lofprysing aan die Here in teenwoordigheid van die hele vergadering uitgespreek. Sy woorde was: "Geloof sy U, Here, God van ons voorvader Israel, van ewigheid tot ewigheid.
11 Die grootheid, Here, die krag, die glans, die roem en die majesteit behoort aan U, ja, alles in die hemel en op aarde. Aan U, Here, behoort die heerskappy; U is bo almal verhewe.
12 Van U kom rykdom en eer. U heers oor alles. Mag en krag word deur U geskenk, en dit berus by U om enigiemand groot en sterk te maak.
13 En nou loof ons U, ons God, ons prys u glansryke Naam,
14 want wie is ek en wie is my volk dat ons die vermoë sou hê om sulke gawes te bring? Alles kom tog van U af en ons gee aan U wat ons van U gekry het.

1 Petrus 5 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

3 ook nie deur baas te speel oor dié wat God aan julle sorg toevertrou het nie, maar deur 'n voorbeeld vir die kudde te wees.
4 En dan, wanneer die Opperherder kom, sal julle die heerlikheid as onverganklike kroon ontvang.
5 En julle wat jonger is, moet aan die ouer mense onderdanig wees. Almal moet trouens teenoor mekaar nederig wees en mekaar help, want "God weerstaan die hoogmoediges, maar aan die nederiges gee Hy genade."
6 Onderwerp julle daarom in nederigheid aan die kragtige hand van God, sodat Hy julle kan verhoog op die tyd wat Hy bestem het.
7 Werp al julle bekommernisse op Hom, want Hy sorg vir julle.
8 Wees nugter, wees wakker! Julle vyand, die duiwel, loop rond soos 'n brullende leeu, op soek na iemand om te verslind.
9 Bly standvastig in die geloof en staan hom teë. En moenie vergeet nie: dwarsdeur die wêreld moet julle medegelowiges dieselfde soort lyding verduur.

Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.

1 Chronicles 29:11

Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you.

1 Peter 5:6

1 Kronieke 29 (English Standard Version)

8 And whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the house of the Lord, in the care of Jehiel the Gershonite.
9 Then the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a whole heart they had offered freely to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.
10 Therefore David blessed the Lord in the presence of all the assembly. And David said: “Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.
11 Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.
12 Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all.
13 And now we thank you, our God, and praise your glorious name.
14 “But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.

1 Petrus 5 (English Standard Version)

3 not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock.
4 And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.
5 Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you,
7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.
8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
9 Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world.
