2 Peter 3
1 I write to you now this second letter, beloved, in which I arouse your sincere mind by a reminder,
Ljubljeni, sedaj vam pišem torej to drugo poslanico; v katerih obeh sem vaše čiste ume razvnel z načinom spominjanja,
2 to remember the sayings that were earlier spoken by the holy prophets, and of the command of your apostles of the Lord and Savior.
da boste lahko razmišljali o besedah, ki so bile prej izgovorjene po svetih prerokih in o zapovedi od nas, apostolov Gospoda in Odrešenika.
3 Knowing this first, that there will come at the end of the days, scoffers, proceeding according to their own desires,
Vedite najprej to, da bodo v poslednjih dneh prišli porogljivci, ki bodo hodili za svojimi lastnimi poželenji
4 and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For, from since the fathers became asleep, all things continue this way from the beginning of creation.
ter govorili: »Kje je obljuba njegovega prihoda? Kajti odkar so očetje zaspali, se vse stvari nadaljujejo, kakor so bile od začetka stvarstva.«
5 For this is willfully ignored by them, that long ago there were heavens, and an earth that came together out of water and by water by the word of God,
Kajti oni tega nočejo spoznati, da je bilo po Božji besedi nebo od davnine in [da] zemlja sestoji iz vode in v vodi.
6 by which the world then perished, having been overflowed with water.
S čimer je bil svet, ki je bil takrat, preplavljen z vodo, uničen.
7 But now the heavens and the earth, which have been stored up by the same word, are being preserved for fire in a day of judgment and destruction of irreverent men.
Toda nebo in zemlja, ki sta sedaj, sta po isti besedi držana v rezervi, prihranjena ognju za dan sodbe in pogube brezbožnih ljudi.
8 But beloved, let not this one thing be ignored by you, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Toda ljubljeni, ne bodite nevedni o tej eni stvari, da je en dan z Gospodom kakor tisoč let in tisoč let kakor en dan.
9 The Lord is not slack about his promise, as some regard slackness, but is patient toward us, not wanting any to perish, but all to go forward to repentance.
Gospod ni počasen glede svoje obljube, kakor nekateri ljudje razumejo počasnost, temveč je do nas potrpežljiv, ne voljan, da bi se kdorkoli pogubil, temveč da bi vsi prišli do kesanja.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, during which the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the elements, being intensely hot, will be disintegrated, and the earth and the works in it will be destroyed by fire.
Toda Gospodov dan bo prišel kakor tat v noči; v kateri bo nebo preminilo z velikim hrupom in prvine se bodo stopile z gorečo vročino; tudi zemlja in dela, ki so na njej, bodo sežgana.
11 Therefore, all these things being disintegrated, what kind ought ye to be in holy actions and pieties,
Ker se bodo torej vse te stvari raztopile, kakšna vrsta oseb morate biti v vsem svetem vedênju in bogaboječnosti,
12 anticipating and hastening the coming of the day of God, by which the heavens, being made fiery hot, will be disintegrated, and the elements dissolve, being intensely hot?
da pričakujete in hitite k prihajanju Božjega dne, ko se bo nebo goreče stopilo in se bodo prvine stopile z gorečo vročino?
13 But we anticipate a new heavens and a new earth according to his promise, in which righteousness dwells.
Kljub temu pa mi, glede na njegovo obljubo, pričakujemo novo nebo in novo zemljo, kjer prebiva pravičnost.
14 Therefore, beloved, anticipating these things, be diligent to be found by him in peace, without spot and blameless.
Torej, ljubljeni, glede na to, da pričakujete takšne stvari, si prizadevajte, da vas bo lahko našel v miru, brez madeža in brez krivde.
15 And consider the longsuffering of our Lord, salvation, just as also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him,
In upoštevajte, da je potrpežljivost našega Gospoda rešitev duš; kakor vam je napisal tudi naš ljubljeni brat Pavel, glede na modrost, ki mu je bila dana;
16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them about these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
kakor je tudi v vseh njegovih poslanicah, kjer v njih govori o teh stvareh; v katerih so nekatere stvari težke za razumevanje, ki jih tisti, ki so nepoučeni in omahljivi, pačijo, kakor počno tudi drugim pismom, v svoje lastno uničenje.
17 Ye therefore, beloved, knowing in advance, keep watch, lest, having accommodated to the error of the lawless, ye fall from your own steadfastness.
Vi torej, ljubljeni, glede na to, da vidim, da poprej poznate te stvari, se varujte, da ne bi tudi vi, zavedeni z zmoto zlobnih, odpadli od svoje lastne neomajnosti.
The World is Destroyed by Water
