< 2 Petulo 2 >
1 Kalakala ko ŵapali ŵakulondola ŵa unami pasikati ja ŵandu, iyoyo peyo chapagwe ŵakwiganya ŵa unami pasikati jenu. Nombewo chajinjisye kwa kalamuka majiganyo ga unami gagakwika nawo uwonasi ni kwakana Ambuje ŵaŵammombwele. Ni kwa litala lyo chakuichisye konasika kwawo kwa chitema.
But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers also among you; and these will stealthily introduce ruinous sects, and deny the Lord that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction:
2 Sooni ŵajinji chagakuye matala gao gangalumbana gagakwichisya soni, ni kwa ligongo lya ŵelewo, litala lya usyene chilitukanikwe.
and many will follow their dissolute ways, on account of whom the way of truth will be reviled;
3 Ni kwa misese jao jangalumbana chalipatile mbiya kutyochela kukwenu kwa litala lya kunsalila ngano syapanganyisye achinsyene. Nambo Akunnungu ŵamasile kulamula chitandile kalakala kuti chiŵalamule. Nombewo ali meeso pe kuti ŵajonanje.
and, with delusive words, they will, through covetousness, make gain of you: the condemnation, long ago denounced against these, delays not, and their destruction does not slumber.
4 Akunnungu nganatenda chanasa kwa achikatumetume ŵa kwinani paŵatesile sambi, nambo ŵajasile ku jehanamu. Kweleko ataŵikwe minyolo mu chipi totoloo, achilindililaga lyuŵa lya kulamulikwa. (Tartaroō )
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and delivered them over to chains of darkness, to be kept for judgment; (Tartaroō )
5 Iyoyopeyo Akunnungu nganachitendela chanasa chilambo cha kalakala, pelepo pajanyele ula jijaichenacho chikumba meesi chichaunichile pachilambo chose cha ŵandu ŵangakwalamba Akunnungu. Nambo ŵankulupwisye che Nuhu juŵaliji nkulalichila indu yambone iŵasakaga Akunnungu pamo ni ŵandu ŵane saba.
and if he spared not the old world, but brought a flood on the world of the ungodly, and saved Noah, the eighth person, who was a preacher of righteousness;
6 Ni Akunnungu ŵajilamwile misi ja ku Sodoma ni ku Gomola, ŵajijonasile kwa mooto. Ni kwa litala lyo alosisye chitagu cha indu ichitendekwe kwa ŵandu ŵangakwalamba Akunnungu.
and if, turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, he condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example to those who should afterward live in an ungodly manner,
7 Ŵankulupwisye che Lutu, mundu jwambone, juŵalasile nnope muntima kwa utame wa wamba wa ŵandu ŵaŵagakanile Malajisyo.
and delivered righteous Lot, wearied out with the licentious conduct of the lawless, ―
8 Pakuŵa che Lutu mundu jwambone jo ŵatemi pasikati jao, ŵaiweni ni kwipikana indu yangalumbana iŵatendaga ŵandu wo ni kila lyuŵa ntima wao waliji nkulagaswa kwannope.
for that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds:
9 Nipele, Ambuje akumanyilila yakuti pakwakulupusya nkulinjikwa ŵandu ŵakwalamba Akunnungu, ni yakuti pakwaŵika ŵa sambi nkulaga mpaka lyuŵa lya kulamulikwa kwawo.
then, the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the ungodly for the day of judgment, to be punished;
10 Nambo nnopennope ŵelewo ŵakujikuya tama jangalumbana ja chiilu ni kuunyelusya ukulu wa Akunnungu. Ŵakwiganya ŵa unami ŵa ali ŵakukanila ni ŵakulifuna, akuitukana yepanganyikwe ya kwinani yaili ni ukulu.
but especially those who walk after the flesh in unclean lust, and who despise government. Presumptuous, willful men! they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries:
11 Nambo achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ali ni ukombole ni machili kwapunda ŵakwiganya ŵa unami, ngakwaŵechetela atamuno kwatukana ŵele ŵakwiganya ŵa unami paujo pa Ambuje.
whereas angels, who excel in might and in power, bring no railing accusation against them in the presence of the Lord.
12 Nambo ŵandu ŵa akuchitukana chachilichose changakuchimanyilila. Ali mpela inyama yangali lunda, yaikuŵelekwa kuti ikamulikwe ni kusinjikwa. Ni ŵele ŵandu wo chajonanjikwe mpela inyama yo.
But these men, like beasts with out reason, which follow the instinct of nature, and are made to be taken and destroyed, speaking evil of things that they understand not, shall utterly perish in their own corruption,
13 Chalipwe malagasyo kwa ligongo lya malagasyo gagatesile. Ŵanyawo akusengwa kwa kupanganya indu yaili yose yaikujisengwasya misese ja chiilu musimusi pe. Ŵandu wo akwete wende wakusakala ni kwichisya soni paakuchingangana nomwe mu chindimba cha yakulya akuno ali nkugasengwela matala gao ga kulambusya.
and receive the reward of unrighteousness. Counting it a pleasure to riot in the day-time, they are spots and stains, rioting in their delusions, while feasting with you;
14 Meeso gao gamagumbale igwagwa, ngaakuleka kutenda sambi ng'oo. Ŵakwanyenga ŵandu ŵangakwima chilimbile mu itanje. Mitima jao jisyoŵelele kusaka mbiya. Akunnungu ŵalwesisye ŵele ŵandu.
having eyes that are full of the adulteress, and that can not cease from sin, deceiving unstable souls, having a heart exercised in covetousness, accursed children,
15 Alesile litala lyegoloche, asochele ni kulikuya litala lya Balaamu, mwana ju che Beoli juŵanonyelwe nnope mbiya, syakapegwile kwa kutenda yangalumbana,
who have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
16 nambo ŵakalipilwe kwa ligongo lya ungalumbana wakwe. Nipele mbunda jingajikuŵecheta, jaŵechete mpela mundu, ni kugasiŵila masoka ga jwakulondola jo.
but he was rebuked for his iniquity, ―the dumb beast, speaking with man’s voice, restrained the madness of the prophet.
17 Ŵele ŵandu ali mpela isima yangali meesi ni mpela maunde gamapujikwe ni chimbunga. Akunnungu ŵaŵichile liuto lya kutama papali ni chipi totoloo. ()
These men are fountains without water, clouds driven by a tempest, for whom the gloom of darkness is reserved forever. ()
18 Pakuŵa ŵakwiganya ŵa unami wo, akuŵecheta maloŵe ga kulikanganichila ni gangalimate ni kwa misese jao jangalumbana, akwatanjisya ŵandu ŵatandite kuliŵambasya kutyochela mwa ŵandu ŵakutama mu sambi.
For by speaking boastful words of folly, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, and through lasciviousness, those who had really escaped from those who live in error.
19 Akwapa ŵandu ŵane chilanga chakuti chalecheleswe namuno achinsyene wo ali achikapolo ŵa indu yaikukombola kuujonanga umi wao. Pakuŵa mundu akuŵa kapolo mu chachili chose chakukamulwa nacho.
While they promise them freedom, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whatever any man is overcome, he is also enslaved.
20 Ŵandu ŵamasile kukulupuka mu kusocheya kwa chilambo kwa kwamanyilila Ambuje ni Nkulupusyo Che Yesu Kilisito, atanjilaga ni kulepela ni sambi, ŵandu wo chaŵe ŵangalumbana kwannope kupunda iŵaliji kundanda.
For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world, through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in these, and overcome by them, the last state of such is worse than the first.
21 Pakuŵa ikaliji mmbaya kwa ŵanyawo iŵaga ngakanalimanyilile litala lyambone paujo pa Akunnungu, kupunda kulimanyilila, nipele kulileka ni kulipotesya lilajisyo lyaliswela lyapegwilwe.
For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22 Nambo iwoneche kukwao malinga ni chitagu cha usyenesyene chati, “Mbwa aujilile yaalukwile nsyene,” ni “Liguluŵe lyejoje likuuja kugalagata pa matope.” Ni yaili kukwawo sambano.
But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: The dog has turned again to his own vomit; and, The sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.
