< 2 Peter 2 >

1 But false prophets also developed among the people, as false teachers will also be among you, who will sneak in pernicious denominations, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
Mme go ne go na le baporofiti ba tsietso mo malatsing ao, fela jaaka go tlaa nna le baruti ba tsietso mo go lona. Mme ka botlhale jwa bone ba tlaa bolela maaka kaga Modimo, ba fularela le e leng Morena wa bone yo o ba rekileng; mme ga bone e tlaa nna bokhutlo jo bo bofefo jo bo boitshegang.
2 And many will follow their wantonness, because of whom the way of the truth will be blasphemed.
Ba le bantsi ba tlaa latela thuto ya bone e e bosula ya gore boaka ga bo molato. Mme ka ntlha ya bone Keresete le ditsela tsa gagwe di tlaa sotlwa.
3 And they will exploit you in greed with fabricated words, whose judgment is not idle for long, and their destruction will not slumber.
Baruti ba, ka ntlha ya bohatlha jwa bone, ba tlaa lo bolelela sengwe fela gore ba tseye madi a lona. Mme Modimo o ba atlhotse bogologolo mme tshenyego ya bone e mo tseleng e a tla.
4 For if God did not spare agents who sinned, but delivered them up to chains of darkness, having been cast into hell being reserved for judgment, (Tartaroō g5020)
Gonne Modimo ga o a ka wa rekegela le e leng baengele ba ba neng ba leofa, mme o ne wa ba latlhela mo moleteng, ba gokeletswe mo dikgageng tse di lefifi go fitlhelela letsatsi la katlholo. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 and he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, the eighth, a herald of righteousness, when he brought on a flood upon the world of the irreverent,
Mme ga o a ka wa rekegela batho ba bogologolo mo morwaleleng fa e se Noa fela, motho yo o esi yo o neng a buelela Modimo le ba ntlo ya gagwe ba supa. Mo lobakeng loo, Modimo o ne wa nyeletsa lefatshe lotlhe le batho ba ba sa boifeng Modimo ka morwalela o mogolo.
6 and he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction, being reduced to ashes, having made an example of men who were going to be irreverent,
Kwa morago wa fetola metse ya Sodoma le Gomora dithotobolo tsa melora wa bo wa e tlosa mo ponong ya lefatshe, wa ba dira sekao sa botlhe ba ba sa boifeng Modimo gore ba lebe kwa morago mme ba boife.
7 and he rescued righteous Lot, being distressed by the conduct of the lawless in their licentiousness
Go ntse go ntse jalo Modimo wa falotsha Lote mo Sodoma ka ntlha ya gore e ne e le mosiami, a utlwisiwa botlhoko ke bosula jo bo maswe jo a neng a bo bona gongwe le gongwe mo tikologong ya gagwe malatsi ka go tlhatlologana.
8 (for that righteous man dwelling among them day after day, in the sight and hearing of their lawless deeds, it anguished his righteous soul),
9 the Lord knows how to rescue the pious out of temptation, and to hold in reserve unrighteous men being cut off for a day of judgment.
Jalo Modimo o ka falotsha nna le wena mo dithaelong tse di re dikaganyeditseng, mme wa tswelela ka go otlhaya ba ba sa o boifeng go fitlhelela letsatsi la bofelo la katlholo le tla.
10 And especially those going rear of flesh in a degenerate lust, and who despise lordship. Reckless, self-willed men, they do not tremble when speaking evil of dignities.
O setlhogo bogolo mo go ba ba tsamayang mo bosulengjwa bone, le mo dikakanyong tsa dithato tsa bone, le ba ba ikgogomosang ebile ba le bodipa, ba sa boife go nyatsa Bagalaledi, le fa e le go ba sisimoga,
11 Whereas agents, being greater in might and power, do not bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord.
le fa baengele ba ba kwa legodimong ba ba emang fa pele ga Morena, ebile ba nonofile thata go gaisa baruti ba ba tsietso, ba se ke ba bua ka lonyatso mabapi le ba ba bosula ba.
12 But these men, like irrational beasts of nature, having been born for capture and destruction, speaking evil at which things they do not understand, will be destroyed in their corruption,
Mme baruti ba tsietso ba dieleele, ga ba botoka bope go na le diphologolo. Ba dira sengwe le sengwe se ba ikutlwang ba se rata; ba tsaletswe go tshwarwa fela le go bolawa, ba nyatsa nonofo e e boitshegang ya bobipo e ba itseng go le gonnye fela ka yone; mme ba tlaa nyelediwa mmogo le mewa e e maswe yotlhe le dinonofo tsa molete.
13 getting back a wage of unrighteousness. Men who consider soft living in the daytime to be pleasure, spots and blemishes reveling in their deceitfulness, feasting together with you,
Eo ke yone tuelo e baruti ba ba tlaa e bonang ka ntlha ya dibe tsa bone. Gonne ba nna mo botlhapelweng jo bo maswe ja letsatsi le letsatsi. Ba tlhabisa ditlhong ebile ba leswe mo go lona, ba lo tsietsa ka go tshela mo sebeng ka ntlha e nngwe ba tlhakana le lona mo medirong jaaka ekete ke batho ba ba ikanyegang.
14 having eyes full of adultery, and unceasing sin, enticing unstable souls, having a heart trained in greed, children of a curse,
Ga go na mosadi ope yo o ka falolang tebo ya bone ya boleo, mme ka boaka gone, ga ba ke ba kgotsofala. Ba hepisa basadi ba ba sa tiang mo tumelong, ba ithutile go nna bohula; mme ba atlhotswe ebile ba hutsitswe.
15 having forsaken a straight path, they were led astray, men who followed the way of Balaam, son of Beor, who loved the wage of unrighteousness.
Ba dule mo tseleng mme ba latlhegile jaaka Balame, morwa Beore, yo o neng a ratile madi a o neng a ka a bona ka go dira tshiamololo.
16 But he had a rebuke of his own lawbreaking. A mute donkey, uttering in a man's voice, restrained the madness of the prophet.
Balame o ne a emisiwa mo tseleng ya gagwe ya boeleele fa tonki ya gagwe e bua nae ka lentswe la setho, e mo omanya e mo kgalemela.
17 These men are waterless wells, and clouds driven by a fierce wind, for whom the gloom of darkness has been reserved into an age. (questioned)
Batho ba ga ba na mosola ba tshwana fela le metswedi ya metse e e kgadileng, ba solofetsa go le go ntsi mme ba sa tlise sepe; ga ba a nitama fela jaaka leru le le kgwekgweediwang ke matsubutsubu a diphefo. Ba sekisitswe go ya meleteng ya lefifi la bosakhutleng. (questioned)
18 For, uttering swollen things of vanity, they entice (to sensuality by lusts of flesh) those who actually escaped from those who live in error,
Ba ipelafatsa ka maleo a bone le phenyo. Mme ba dirisa dithata tsa bone jaaka seru sa bone ba hepisetsa; ba ba falotseng botshelo jo bo maswe joo mo sebeng gape.
19 promising them freedom, while they themselves are bondmen of corruption, for by what any man has been overcome, of this he has also been enslaved.
Ba ba raya ba re, “Ga lo a bolokwa ka go nna tshiamo; lo ka nna lwa bolokwa ka go tlhoka tshiamo. Dirang se lo se ratang, lo gololesege.” Mme bone baruti ba ba ba nayang “kgololesego” e e mo molaong ke bone batlhanka ba boleo le tshenyego. Gonne motho ke motlhanka wa se se mo laolang.
20 For if, having escaped the defilements of the world by knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and, having been again entangled in these, they are overcome, the last things have become worse for them than the first.
Mme fa motho a falotse mekgwa e e bosula ya lefatshe ka go ithuta ka ga Morena le Mmoloki wa rona Jesu Keresete, mme a bo a ithatheletsa ka sebe a bo a nna motlhanka wa sone gape, o maswe bogolo go gaisa jaaka a ne a ntse pele.
21 For it were better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
Go ne go ka nna botoka fa a ne a ise a ke a itse ka Keresete gotlhelele go na le go ithuta ka ga gagwe mme morago ga moo a bo a fapoga melao e e boitshepo e o e neetsweng.
22 But that of the true proverb has happened to them, The dog returning to his own vomit, and the sow that washed to wallowing in mire.
Mogologolo a re, “Ntsa e boela mo matlhatseng a yone, mme kolobe e tlhapisediwa fela go bowa e bidikama mo morageng gape.” Go ntse fela jalo le mo go ba ba boelang mo dibeng tsa bone gape.
