2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained equal faith with us in the justice of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Neni Simoni Peteru, mtenda lihengu na ntumintumi gwa Yesu Kristu, nankuwalembera mwenga kwa uheri wa Yesu Kristu yakawera Mlungu gwetu na Mlopoziya gwetu, mpananwa njimiru teratera na yatwenga.
2 Grace to you and peace be accomplished in the knowledge of God and of Christ Jesus our Lord:
Manemu na ponga gongereki kwa mwenga mukummana Mlungu na Yesu Mtuwa gwetu.
3 As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue.
Kwa makakala gakuwi ga shimlungu, Mlungu katupanana vitwatira vyoseri vyatuvifira mumakaliru ga kumguwira kwa kummana mweni yakatushemiti tutendi pamuhera muukulu na kwa uheri wa ukwisa wakuwi na uherepa wakuwi.
4 By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world.
Kupitira avi yomberi katupanana twenga mafupu makulu na ga mana nentu, su kwa mafupu aga mpati kuzishapira upotuziya wa matamata zidoda zyaziwera pasipanu na kutenda pamuhera muntambu yakuwi ya shimlungu.
5 And you, employing all care, minister in your faith, virtue; and in virtue, knowledge;
Toziya ayi, mgangamali kwongera njimiru yenu kwa uheri na kwa uheri wenu kwongera kuvimana,
6 And in knowledge, abstinence; and in abstinence, patience; and in patience, godliness;
na kwa kuvimana kwenu mwongeri kulikolamlima na kwa kulikolamlima kwenu mwongeri uhepelera na kwa uhepelera wenu mwongeri kumguwira Mlungu.
7 And in godliness, love of brotherhood; and in love of brotherhood, charity.
Kwa kumguwira Mlungu mwongeri uganja wa shirongu na kwa uganja wa shirongu mwongeri mafiliru.
8 For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Pamuhera na goseri aga kwa uvuwa, haziwatendi muweri watenda lihengu yawafaa na kuwera na mota mukummana Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu.
9 For he that hath not these things with him, is blind, and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
Kumbiti muntu yakahera aga kawera lwisi na kaweza ndiri kuwona na kalyaluwa kuwera kapungitwi kala vidoda vyakuwi vya makashu.
10 Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.
Su walongu wangu, mgangamali nentu kuwutenda ushemwa wenu na usyagula wenu kwa Mlungu, shiweri shitwatira sha mashaka goseri. Handa pamulikala ntambu ayi, hapeni mulikwali nakamu,
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
na mwenga hamulekeziwi nakamu kwingira muufalumi wa mashaka goseri wa Mtuwa na Mlopoziya gwetu Yesu Kristu. (aiōnios g166)
12 For which cause I will begin to put you always in remembrance of these things: though indeed you know them, and are confirmed in the present truth.
Su hanendereyi kuwaholuziya mashaka goseri vitwatira avi, tembera muvimaniti kala na mgangamala muunakaka yamuwuwankiti.
13 But I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
Mona kuwera shitwatira shiherepa kwaneni kuwayumusiya na kuwaholuziya vitwatira avi, shipindi shoseri shanulikala pasipanu,
14 Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me.
toziya nuvimana kuwera kanongola hanfuwi, Mtuwa Yesu kristu ntambu yakang'ambiriti pota kufifa.
15 And I will endeavour, that you frequently have after my decease, whereby you may keep a memory of these things.
Su hantendi kila shaweza nakaka su pakuhowa kwaneni, mwenga hamuwezi kuvihola vitwatira avi shipindi shoseri.
16 For we have not by following artificial fables, made known to you the power, and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eyewitnesses of his greatness.
Shipindi patuwafunditi kuusu makakala gakuwi na kwiza kwakuwi Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu, tulitumbira ndiri tambu hera zya upayira. Twenga tuwoniti ukwisa wakuwi kwa masu getu twaweni.
17 For he received from God the Father, honour and glory: this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
Twenga tuweriti shipindi pakapananitwi ligoya na ukwisa kulawa kwa Mlungu Tati, shipindi liziwu palimwiziriti kulawa kwakuwi yomberi yakawera Mlungu Mkulu, palilonga, “Ayu ndo Mwana gwangu yanumfira nentu, nherepeziwa nayomberi.”
18 And this voice we heard brought from heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
Kayi twenga twaweni tupikaniriti liziwu ali kulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu shipindi patuweriti pamuhera nayomberi palugongu lunanagala.
19 And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
Na twenga twana unakaka nentu kuusu ujumbi wa wambuyi wa Mlungu na mwenga hamutendi weri pamushipikanira nakaka, toziya shiwera gambira shikoluboyi shashilangalira muluwindu mpaka papawera mandawira na ntondu ya mandawira ilawiri mumyoyu mwenu.
20 Understanding this first, that no prophecy of scripture is made by private interpretation.
Pa aga, mfiruwa kuvimana kuwera kwahera muntu yakaweza kuwutakulira kwa mahala gakuwi mweni mana ya umbuyi yawuwera Mumalembu Mananagala.
21 For prophecy came not by the will of man at any time: but the holy men of God spoke, inspired by the Holy Ghost.
Toziya kwahera ujumbi wa shimbuyi woseri yawulawirana na mafiliru ga shimuntu, kumbiti wantu walaviyiti umbuyi wa Mlungu pawalongoziwa na Rohu Mnanagala.
