2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, as there shall be also among you false teachers, who shall bring in by the bye destructive heresies, and deny the master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction;
Asi kwaiva nevaporofita venhemawo pakati pevanhu, sezvakuchavapowo vadzidzisi venhema pakati penyu, vachapinza pachivande kutsauka kunoparadza, vachiramba kunyange Ishe wakavatenga, vachizviwisira kuparara kunokurumidza.
2 and many shall follow their dissolute ways, through whom the way of the truth shall be blasphemed.
Vazhinjiwo vachatevera kuparadzwa kwavo; nekuda kwavo nzira yechokwadi ichanyombwa.
3 And through covetousness, with well-turned words, will they make merchandise of you: for whom judgment of old is not idle, and their destruction slumbers not.
Uye pakuchiva namashoko akaumbwa vachawana mubairo nemwi; kutongwa kwavo kwakare hakunonoki, nekuparadzwa kwavo hakutsumwairi.
4 For if God spared not [the] angels who had sinned, but having cast them down to the deepest pit of gloom has delivered them to chains of darkness [to be] kept for judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
Nokuti kana Mwari asina kurega vatumwa vakatadza, asi wakavakandira mugehena achivakumikidza kumaketeni erima kuti vachengeterwe mutongo; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 and spared not [the] old world, but preserved Noe, [the] eighth, a preacher of righteousness, having brought in [the] flood upon [the] world of [the] ungodly;
uye haana kurega nyika yekare, asi wakachengetedza Nowa muparidzi wekururama nevamwe vanomwe, paakauisa mafashame panyika yevasingadi Mwari;
6 and having reduced [the] cities of Sodom and Gomorrha to ashes, condemned [them] with an overthrow, setting [them as] an example to those that should [afterwards] live an ungodly life;
nekuroromesa maguta eSodhoma neGomora, akaatongera kuparadzwa, akaaita chive chiratidzo kune vachazogara vasingadi Mwari;
7 and saved righteous Lot, distressed with the abandoned conversation of the godless,
akanunurawo Roti wakarurama, wakazvidya moyo pakuzvibata mukunyangadza kwevakaipa;
8 (for the righteous man through seeing and hearing, dwelling among them, tormented [his] righteous soul day after day with [their] lawless works, )
(nekuti uyo wakarurama, agere pakati pavo, pakuona nekunzwa, wakarwadzisa kwazvo mweya wake wakarurama zuva rimwe nerimwe nemabasa asina murairo).
9 [the] Lord knows [how] to deliver the godly out of trial, and to keep [the] unjust to [the] day of judgment [to be] punished;
Ishe anoziva kununura vanonamata Mwari kubva pamiedzo, nekuchengeta vasakarurama kusvika pazuva rekutongwa vachirangwa;
10 and specially those who walk after the flesh in [the] lust of uncleanness, and despise lordship. Bold [are they], self-willed; they do not fear speaking injuriously of dignities:
asi zvikuru ivo vanofamba nemutoo wenyama paruchiva rwetsvina, nekuzvidza utongi. Vasina hanya, vane nharo, vasingatyi kutuka vanokudzwa;
11 when angels, who are greater in might and power, do not bring against them, before the Lord, an injurious charge.
izvo vatumwa, vanopfuura pakugona nesimba, havauyisi pavari mutongo wekunyomba pamberi paIshe.
12 But these, as natural animals without reason, made to be caught and destroyed, speaking injuriously in things they are ignorant of, shall also perish in their own corruption,
Asi ava, vakaita semhuka pachisikirwo dzisina fungwa dzakaberekerwa kubatwa nekuparadzwa, vanotuka zvavasingazivi, vachaparadzwa pakuora kwavo,
13 receiving [the] reward of unrighteousness; accounting ephemeral indulgence pleasure; spots and blemishes, rioting in their own deceits, feasting with you;
vachagamuchira mubairo wekusarurama, vanoti mafaro kuita umbozha masikati, ivo makwapa nechinyadzo, vanofara mukunyengera kwavo kana vari pamabiko nemwi,
14 having eyes full of adultery, and that cease not from sin, alluring unestablished souls; having a heart practised in covetousness, children of curse;
vane meso azere neupombwe, nevasingaregi chivi, vanonyengera mweya isina simba, vane moyo wakarovedzwa kuchiva; vana vechakatukwa;
15 having left [the] straight way they have gone astray, having followed in the path of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved [the] reward of unrighteousness;
vasiya nzira yakarurama vakatsauka, vatevera nzira yaBharami waBhosori, wakada mubairo wekusarurama,
16 but had reproof of his own wickedness — [the] dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the folly of the prophet.
asi wakava nekutsiurwa kwekudarika kwake, mbongoro chimumumu ichitaura muinzwi remunhu, chikadzivisa upengo hwemuporofita.
17 These are springs without water, and mists driven by storm, to whom the gloom of darkness is reserved [for ever]. (questioned)
Iva zvitubu zvisina mvura, makore anosundwa nedutu remhepo; ivo vakachengeterwa mhute yerima kusvikira kusingaperi. (questioned)
18 For [while] speaking great highflown words of vanity, they allure with [the] lusts of [the] flesh, by dissoluteness, those who have just fled those who walk in error,
Nokuti vachitaura zvekuzvikudza kusina maturo, vanokwezva neruchiva rwenyama neunzenza avo vakapukunyuka zvirokwazvo kune vanofamba mukutsauka;
19 promising them liberty, while they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a man is subdued, by him is he also brought into slavery.
vachivavimbisa rusununguko, ivo pachavo varanda vekuora; nokuti uyo umwe waakundwa naye, ndiyewo waanoitwa muranda kwaari.
20 For if after having escaped the pollutions of the world through [the] knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, again entangled, they are subdued by these, their last state is worse than the first.
Nokuti kana vapukunyuka patsvina yenyika kubudikidza neruzivo rwaIshe neMuponesi Jesu Kristu, vanopfekanidzwazve mazviri vachikundwa, zvinhu zvekuguma zvigova kwavari zvakaipa kupfuura zvekutanga.
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.
Nokuti zvaiva nani kwavari kuti dai vaiva vasina kuziva nzira yekururama, pakuti vaziva vadzoke kubva pamurairo mutsvene wakakumikidzwa kwavari.
22 But that [word] of the true proverb has happened to them: [The] dog [has] turned back to his own vomit; and, [The] washed sow to [her] rolling in mud.
Asi zvakaitika kwavari zvedimikira rechokwadi zvinoti: Imbwa yakadzokera kumarutsi ayo pachayo; nehadzi yenguruve yakange yashamba kukuvumburuka mumatope.
