2 Pita 1
1 sima Bitru igra nivren u tondu yesu kristi ba yarson christi ni bi aw kikpa. yosron ni mi ti ndi ndi trsimbu ni yesu almasihu.
Simon Peter, the servant of God and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those receiving like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 ni ndu ti ndindi ndu sisron bi nho nigon u toh ijri ni yesu bachiimbu.
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the perfect knowledge of Jesus Christ, our Lord.
3 didi ikpi bi sisenri ndidima a nota ntu toh irji wadi a ota zu ni gbiresan u bima.
As His divine power having given unto us all things which appertain to life and godliness, through the perfect knowledge of the one having called us to his own glory and virtue:
4 ni tuki a yo nyu bi rigmar didima nita wu du khi kpande ubu ni irji. wa khi dju nimi memeteh u ibrji ni gbublua wa a ii ye u sorkpa
through which precious and greatest promises have been given unto us; that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 ni tu naki bi ka ti mi gbengbene bi ni ndu tie ndi ndi ni tie ndindi ni yosron bi ndu nho.
And in harmony with this same thing also, add to your faith heroism; and to heroism, knowledge;
6 ni vutu ni tu yotutya bi be ka yotutya nivu sonyo ni mi vu sonro bi ka yotu ni hwu irji.
and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness;
7 ni mi hwu irji br ka yotu ni son bebeh umrivyayi ni tu son bebe u mrivayi ni tu son bebe u umrivayi be ka yoyu ni son kpabi.
and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love.
8 ikpi beyi ba ta he nimi bi; u ba gbronni mi bi indji ribi na kudjur na ni tui toh u irji bu yesu Almasihu sun ni krju ko ka sun hanma ni ngrji na ni toh bachrimbr yesu.
For these things, being in you and overflowing, render you neither barren nor unfruitful in the perfect knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;
9 indji wa a wabi kpi yi hanama ani ya ikpe wa ahe whiwhir mi gen kawa yar shishi. a kpa ri su andi ba ngwala rju ni mi min chiche latre mba
for he unto whom these things are not present is blind, not seeing afar off, having received the forgetfulness of his purgation from his old sins.
10 nit kima mrivaye bi ka te ni gbegble bi wawu de toh ni yao bia ni chur bia beta ti kpi beyi be na kubuza na
Therefore, brethren, be the more diligent to make your calling and election sure: for doing these things you can never fall.
For in this way an entrance will be administered unto you abundantly into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 ni tu nakima me son si gbeh chachu de ti yi kaa ni yu kpi be yi me toh de be toh mba naki u be ka tigbegble ni najaaji u zezah.
Therefore I will be about to always remind you concerning these things, even though knowing them, and being established in the present truth.
13 ime me rimeren naki du mi chon yi du yi tika ni kpi be yi u me rihe ni mi kpayi.
But I consider it righteous, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by remembrance;
14 mi toh ni vi nton tsa me mi ka ikpa yi don na wa yesu Almasihu a tsoro me.
knowing that the laying aside of my tabernacle is swift, as our Lord Jesus Christ also showed to me.
15 me ti ni gbegble mu chachu du yi kata tika ikpi beyi a u meta kayi don.
And I will endeavor to have each one of you after my departure make mention of these things.
16 ni tu khita khi na hwu ibaltre u wuri mba na u khi hla ni yiwa gbegble ni ye irji bu yesu Almasihu u khta khto gbegble ma.
For not having followed cunningly devised fables, have we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but having been eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 na kima a kpah gibresan u bima ni irji ite bu niton wa nlan a ye ni mi gegble u gbiresan da tere e wayi wa weh a hi iveremu u sonmu wa ani sime sonro u njaaji.
For having received from God the Father the honor and glory of such a voice having been borne to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 ki wo lan yirji shu niton wa ki na he baba ni tita u tsatsra.
We, being with him in the holy mount, heard this voice borne from heaven.
19 khi he ni ilan tere wa khi toh ani ye njaaji khi ta yo soron ni mba ani he na ilu wa a ni kpah ni bua na tsitse wa ani kpah ni buu ble ani kpah ni mi sunron bi.
And we have the more certain word of prophecy; to which you do well giving heed, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day may dawn, and the morning-star may rise in your hearts:
20 bika to wayi arjini mumla mu andi be toh kima ni mumlamu ba idi. wawuu a tozu na he ni tu kpeiri zan indji mla du toh ba hla itereri wa ani na ye ni kpakyeme u idi u idi tu tere
know this in the first place, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation.
21 ba nati bre tozu ni sonsron ni tu irji wa mba he niibrji u tsa indji na ni ndu he naki a hi a hi brji tsatsra mba ni yo ba ni ndu ba latre rii.
For in the olden time prophecy did not come by the will of man: but men moved by the Holy Ghost spoke from God.
