2 Peter 3
1 This seconde Epistle I nowe write vnto you, beloued, wherewith I stirre vp, and warne your pure mindes,
Ljubljeni, sedaj vam pišem torej to drugo poslanico; v katerih obeh sem vaše čiste ume razvnel z načinom spominjanja,
2 To call to remembrance the wordes, which were tolde before of the holy Prophetes, and also the commandement of vs the Apostles of the Lord and Sauiour.
da boste lahko razmišljali o besedah, ki so bile prej izgovorjene po svetih prerokih in o zapovedi od nas, apostolov Gospoda in Odrešenika.
3 This first vnderstande, that there shall come in the last dayes, mockers, which wil walke after their lustes,
Vedite najprej to, da bodo v poslednjih dneh prišli porogljivci, ki bodo hodili za svojimi lastnimi poželenji
4 And say, Where is the promise of his comming? for since the fathers died, all things continue alike from the beginning of the 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 they willingly know not, that the heauens were of olde, and the earth that was of the water and by the 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 Wherefore the worlde that then was, perished, ouerflowed with the water.
S čimer je bil svet, ki je bil takrat, preplavljen z vodo, uničen.
7 But the heauens and earth, which are nowe, are kept by the same word in store, and reserued vnto fire against the day of condemnation, and of the destruction of vngodly 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 Dearely beloued, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord, as a thousande yeeres, and a thousande yeeres 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 of that promise is not slacke (as some men count slackenesse) but is pacient toward vs, and would haue no man to perish, but would all men to come 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 thiefe in the night, in the which the heauens shall passe away with a noyse, and the elements shall melt with heate, and the earth with the workes that are therein, shalbe burnt vp.
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 Seeing therefore that all these thinges must be dissolued, what maner persons ought ye to be in holy conuersation and godlinesse,
Ker se bodo torej vse te stvari raztopile, kakšna vrsta oseb morate biti v vsem svetem vedênju in bogaboječnosti,
12 Looking for, and hasting vnto the comming of that day of God, by the which the heauens being on fire, shall be dissolued, and the elements shall melt with heate?
da pričakujete in hitite k prihajanju Božjega dne, ko se bo nebo goreče stopilo in se bodo prvine stopile z gorečo vročino?
13 But wee looke for newe heauens, and a newe earth, according to his promise, wherein dwelleth righteousnesse.
Kljub temu pa mi, glede na njegovo obljubo, pričakujemo novo nebo in novo zemljo, kjer prebiva pravičnost.
14 Wherefore, beloued, seeing that yee looke for such thinges, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot and blamelesse.
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 suppose that the long suffering of our Lord is saluation, euen as our beloued brother Paul according to the wisedome giuen vnto him wrote to you,
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 one, that in all his Epistles speaketh of these thinges: among the which some thinges are hard to be vnderstand, which they that are vnlearned and vnstable, wrest, as they do also other Scriptures vnto their owne 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 beloued, seeing ye know these thinges before, beware, lest ye be also plucked away with the errour of the wicked, and fall from your owne stedfastnesse.
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 Great Flood
