< 2 Peter 3 >
1 This, a second letter, beloved, I already write to you, in [both] which I stir up, in the way of putting you in remembrance, your pure mind,
Joon awaan loong, arah le maat halang ah ih taknyi angla. Le enyiinyi ni sen thung nah esa tenthun angthuk suh ngeh ih arah tiit ah taat thaam dobbaat rumhala.
2 to be mindful of the words spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of the Lord and Saviour by your apostles;
Ngah ih liihang ah langla, teewah di esa khowah loong jengta loong ah nyia seng Pangte Teesu jengdang kaamwah loong ih kotahan ah dokthun an.
3 knowing this first, that there shall come at [the] close of the days mockers with mocking, walking according to their own lusts,
Jaakhothoon sen ih jattheng ah langla, saathoon doh neng teenuh teewah roidong ah neng ramka ih jen arah mina dongha. Erah loong ah ih sen loong ah pitbeek ngitkhu hanno,
4 and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for from the time the fathers fell asleep all things remain thus from [the] beginning of [the] creation.
amah cheng han, “Jisu ih ngaakkaat esuh kakham tahan, tatam liita? Heh amadi mani ah? Sengte sengwah loong jen tek eta, erabah uh arah mongrep dongsiitta dowa ih amadi tuk ih phoosiitsiit!”
5 For this is hidden from them through their own wilfulness, that heavens were of old, and an earth, having its subsistence out of water and in water, by the word of God,
Teewah di arah hah nyia rangmong ah Rangte jeng nawa ih dongsiitta ngeh ih jatchoi doh neng loong ah thamtham ih diip reeraang rum ah. Arah hah ah ju nawa nyia ju ih dongsiitta,
6 through which [waters] the then world, deluged with water, perished.
eno ju jengta ah uh ju heheh ih jeng thukta, eno teewah dowa mongrep ah thet haat eta.
7 But the present heavens and the earth by his word are laid up in store, kept for fire unto a day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
Enoothong amah dowa rangmong nyia arah hah ah we suh matkhaam thuk suh Rangte jengdang phoosiitsiit nawa ih thoktong thukla. Erah langla ranngte mih lah angka loong dande ja matkhaam thuk suh thiinha.
8 But let not this one thing be hidden from you, beloved, that one day with [the] Lord [is] as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Enoothong, joon awaan loong sen ih jisiit nak beehaat an! Teesu maangka di paangsiit nyia hajaatsiit paang ah phoosiit; heh maangka di erah enyi ah phosiitsiit.
9 [The] Lord does not delay his promise, as some account of delay, but is longsuffering towards you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Mararah ih thunha ah likhiik, Teesu ih kakhamta ah tasen reeraangka. Emah tah angka, erah angla bah sen biinbui halan, tiimnge liidoh Rangte ah o uh thet haat thung tah angka, erah nang ebah mina loongtang rangdah nawa doksoon baalah ih rumta ngeh ih thunha.
10 But the day of [the] Lord will come as a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a rushing noise, and [the] elements, burning with heat, shall be dissolved, and [the] earth and the works in it shall be burnt up.
Enoothong Teesu Rangwu thok haadoh ehuh thokthok eha. Erah Rangwuuja rangmong nah erongwah ih hu ano saapmah ah, rang ahah loong ah matkhaam nyia ethet ih ah, eno arah hah nyia hah dowa jirep ah tikmah eh ah.
11 All these things then being to be dissolved, what ought ye to be in holy conversation and godliness,
Erah loong ah emah ih saapmah abah, sen loong ah tiim likhiik mina angtheng ah? Sen roidong ah esa nyia Rangte lathong nah tongte mina ang theng,
12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, by reason of which [the] heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and [the] elements, burning with heat, shall melt?
sen loong ah Rangte Rangwu bansokte ang phiino kharok toom raaha suh sen loong ah mootse kaatse ah mokah an. Rangmong matkhaam nyia thet haat Sa, rang nyia hah loong ah weetak khaam nawa ih jaakkhaam ah
13 But, according to his promise, we wait for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
Enoothong seng loong ah ih Rangte ih tiim raangtaan ih kakhamta erah bansok hi: Erah langla rangmong ena nyia hatoh hadaang marah nok adi katengthoon jeela.
14 Wherefore, beloved, as ye wait for these things, be diligent to be found of him in peace, without spot and blameless;
Erah raangtaan ih, joon awaan loong, sen loong ah ih erah Rangwu ah bansok hanbah, Rangte miksok doh lah moongtaang suh, erah damdoh semroongroong nyia saachamcham ih songtong suh thun an.
15 and account the longsuffering of our Lord [to be] salvation; according as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him,
Rangte ih mongtham ah koh ano seng joonte Pool ih raangkoh tahan ah likhiik, seng Teesu ih seng puipang suh naan heeno saapoot se koh hali ah sok thaak an.
16 as also in all [his] epistles, speaking in them of these things; among which some things are hard to be understood, which the untaught and ill-established wrest, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
Pool ih arah tiit raangta adi mathan ah, erah di ngah ih baat hang loong ah ju raangta. Pool ih raangta le loong adi marah marah ah lajen jattheng ih raangha eno wapoh wasoi nyia mih jeng chaatchaat ete loong ah ih eki ni jangbaat kaatla. Erah likhiikkhiik Rangteele ehoh uh eki ni moong jaangbaat kaat rumla. Eno neng teeteewah thet hoom rumha.
17 Ye therefore, beloved, knowing [these] things before, take care lest, being led away along with the error of the wicked, ye should fall from your own stedfastness:
Enoothong, nga joon loong sen ebah erah jen jat etan. Erah raangtaan ih sen teeteewah sokboi an, sen puipang lam dowa hootthe lajeete miloong ah ih lamki ko naktoom moongsiit han.
18 but grow in grace, and in [the] knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him [be] glory both now and to [the] day of eternity. Amen. (aiōn )
Erah nang ebah, seng Pangte nyia seng Teesu, Jisu Kristo minchan adoleh heh mongtham nah sen loong ah ehak toom ih an. Rangka ah amadoh nyia saarookwet heh raangtaan toom ang ah. Amen. (aiōn )
