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;
Atorɔ adiyifoɔ kɔɔ tetefoɔ no mu, na saa ara nso na atorɔ adiyifoɔ bɛba mo mu ara ne no. Wɔbɛkyerɛ nkyerɛkyerɛ bɔne a nokorɛ nni mu na wɔapa Owura a ɔgyee wɔn no, na ɛnam so ama ɔsɛeɛ aba wɔn so prɛko pɛ.
2 and many shall follow their dissolute ways, through whom the way of the truth shall be blasphemed.
Nnipa bebree bɛfa akwammɔne so na ɛsiane deɛ wɔyɛ no enti, nnipa bɛkasa atia nokorɛ ɛkwan no.
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.
Saa atorɔ adiyifoɔ yi nam wɔn sikanibereɛ so bɛto anansesɛm akyerɛ mo de apɛ mo ho mfasoɔ. Wɔn ɔtemmufoɔ siesiee ne ho akyɛre, na saa ara nso na wɔn ɔsɛefoɔ no nso asɔre agyina.
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)
Onyankopɔn amfa abɔfoɔ a wɔyɛɛ bɔne no ho ankyɛre wɔn. Ɔtoo wɔn guu asaman sum mu baabi guu wɔn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn, na ɛhɔ na wɔretwɛn Atemmuo da no. (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;
Onyankopɔn amma tete ewiase no amfa ne ho anni. Ɔmaa nsuyire baa wɔn a wɔannye asɛm no anni no so. Wɔn a ɔgyee wɔn nkwa no ne Noa a ɔkaa tenenee ho asɛm no ne nnipa baason bi.
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;
Onyankopɔn buu Sodom ne Gomora fɔ de ogya sɛee wɔn, de bɔɔ wɔn a wɔnnye Onyankopɔn nni no kɔkɔ.
7 and saved righteous Lot, distressed with the abandoned conversation of the godless,
Ɔgyee Lot a ɔyɛ ɔteneneeni no firii nnipa nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nsam.
8 (for the righteous man through seeing and hearing, dwelling among them, tormented [his] righteous soul day after day with [their] lawless works, )
Na saa ɔteneneeni no te saa nnipa nnebɔneyɛfoɔ no mu na afideɛ a na saa nnipa no yɛ no adekyeeɛ ne adesaeɛ no ha no yie.
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;
Yei kyerɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn nim ɛkwan a ɔfa so gye nʼakyidifoɔ firi ɔhaw mu, ɛnna ɔnim ɛkwan a ɔfa so kora nnipa nnebɔneyɛfoɔ, twe wɔn aso de twɛn Atemmuo da no,
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:
ne titire no, wɔn a wɔdi wɔn honam akɔnnɔ akyi na wɔpa Onyankopɔn tumi no. Saa atorɔ akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ yi wɔ akokoɔduru na wɔmmu animuonyamfoɔ a wɔwɔ ɔsoro no, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔte wɔn atua.
11 when angels, who are greater in might and power, do not bring against them, before the Lord, an injurious charge.
Na abɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ ahoɔden ne tumi sene saa atorɔ akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ yi mpo nka nsɛmmɔne mmu wɔn atɛn wɔ Awurade anim.
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,
Nanso, saa nnipa yi yɛ wɔn nneɛma te sɛ mmoa a wonni adwene, wɔwo wɔn sɛ wɔnkye wɔn nku wɔn. Wɔgu nneɛma biara a wɔnte aseɛ no ho fi. Wɔbɛsɛe wɔn sɛ mmoa.
13 receiving [the] reward of unrighteousness; accounting ephemeral indulgence pleasure; spots and blemishes, rioting in their own deceits, feasting with you;
Ɔhaw a wɔma ɛbaeɛ no, wɔbɛtua wɔn so ka. Deɛ wɔn ani gye ho ne sɛ wɔbɛyɛ biribiara awia ketee a ɛbɛyɛ ama wɔn honam akɔnnɔ. Sɛ wɔne mo to nsa didi a, ɛgu wɔn anim ase. Ɛfiri sɛ, saa ɛberɛ no na wɔka nnaadaasɛm.
14 having eyes full of adultery, and that cease not from sin, alluring unestablished souls; having a heart practised in covetousness, children of curse;
Wɔnhwehwɛ hwee sɛ mmaa adwamanfoɔ ɛfiri sɛ, wɔpɛ sɛ daa wɔyɛ bɔne. Wɔdaadaa nnipa a wɔyɛ mmerɛ kɔ bɔne mu. Wɔayɛn wɔn akoma ama anibereɛ. Wɔwɔ Onyankopɔn nnome ase.
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;
Wɔamane afiri ɛkwan tee no so enti wɔayera. Wɔafa ɛkwan a Beor ba Bileam a ne sika a ɔnya de yɛ bɔne no kɔfaa so no so.
16 but had reproof of his own wickedness — [the] dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the folly of the prophet.
Yei maa wɔkaa nʼanim wɔ ne bɔne no ho. Nʼafunumu de onipa nne kasaeɛ de sii odiyifoɔ no abɔdamsɛm no ho ɛkwan.
17 These are springs without water, and mists driven by storm, to whom the gloom of darkness is reserved [for ever]. (questioned)
Saa nnipa yi te sɛ asutire a awe anaasɛ omununkum a mframa bɔ no. Onyankopɔn de wɔn asie esum kabii mu wɔ baabi. (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,
Wɔka ahantansɛm ne nkwaseasɛm na wɔnam wɔn honam akɔnnɔ ho nnaadaa so twetwe wɔn a wɔatwe wɔn ho afiri nnebɔneyɛfoɔ ho.
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.
Wɔhyɛ wɔn ahofadie ho bɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔn ankasa wɔyɛ bɔne nkoa ɛfiri sɛ, onipa yɛ akoa ma biribiara a ɛdi no so.
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.
Na sɛ onipa sua yɛn Awurade ne yɛn Agyenkwa Yesu Kristo ho asɛm, na ɔnam so dwane firi ewiase yi mu akwammɔne so, na akyire no ɔkɔ bɔne mu bio ma ɔdane bɔne akoa a, ɛnneɛ ɛyɛ hu sene ne kane no.
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.
Sɛ wɔnnim Kristo koraa a, anka ɛyɛ ma wɔn sene sɛ wɔbɛsua ne ho nsɛm na afei wɔbɛdane wɔn akyi akyerɛ mmara Kronkron a wɔde maa wɔn no.
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.
Deɛ ɛbaa wɔn so no kyerɛ sɛ, saa ɛbɛ yi yɛ nokorɛ. “Ɔkraman sane kɔtafere ne fe ɛnna ɔprako a wɔadware no no nso kɔyantam wɔ atɛkyɛ mu.”
