2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter a seruant and an Apostle of Iesus Christ, to you which haue obteined like precious faith with vs by the righteousnesse of our God and Sauiour Iesus Christ:
Ọ bụ Saimọn Pita, odibo na onyeozi nke Jisọs Kraịst, Na-edegara ndị niile anyị na ha ketara otu ụdị okwukwe a dị oke ọnụahịa, nʼime ezi omume nke Chineke na Onye nzọpụta anyị Jisọs Kraịst akwụkwọ ozi a:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you, through the acknowledging of God, and of Iesus our Lord,
Ka amara na udo bara unu ụba, site na mmazu nke Chineke na nke Jisọs Onyenwe anyị.
3 According as his diuine power hath giuen vnto vs all things that perteine vnto life and godlinesse, through the acknowledging of him that hath called vs vnto glory and vertue.
O sitela nʼike o ji bụrụ Chi nye anyị ihe niile dị anyị mkpa ibi ndụ na-asọpụrụ ya, site nʼọmụma nke anyị mara ya, bụ onye ahụ kpọrọ anyị site nʼebube ya na ịdị mma ya.
4 Whereby most great and precious promises are giuen vnto vs, that by them ye should be partakers of the diuine nature, in that ye flee the corruption, which is in the worlde through lust.
O sitela nʼihe ndị a nye anyị nkwa dị ukwuu na nke dị oke ọnụahịa, ka anyị site na ha keta oke nʼụdịdị nsọ ya, si otu a gbanarị ịrụ arụ dị nʼụwa, nke ọchịchọ ọjọọ na-ebute.
5 Therefore giue euen all diligence thereunto: ioyne moreouer vertue with your faith: and with vertue, knowledge:
Nʼihi nke a, gbalịsienụ ike ịtụkwasị ịdị mma nʼelu okwukwe unu, ma na-atụkwasịkwanụ ihe ọmụma nʼelu ịdị mma,
6 And with knowledge, temperance: and with temperance, patience: and with patience, godlines:
tụkwasịkwanụ imerụ ihe nʼoke nʼelu ihe ọmụma, tụkwasịkwanụ ntachiobi nʼelu imerụ ihe na oke, ma na-atụkwasịkwanụ ibi ndụ dị ka ndị Chineke nʼelu ntachiobi.
7 And with godlines, brotherly kindnes: and with brotherly kindnes, loue.
Tụkwasịkwanụ obiọma nye ụmụnna nʼelu ibi ndụ dị ka ndị Chineke, ma na-atụkwasịkwanụ ịhụnanya nʼelu obiọma nye ụmụnna.
8 For if these things be among you, and abound, they will make you that ye neither shalbe idle, nor vnfruitfull in the acknowledging of our Lord Iesus Christ:
Ọ bụrụ na unu enwe ihe ndị a nʼụzọ ha jubigakwara oke nʼime unu, mgbe ahụ ha ga-eme ka unu ndị na-adịghị amị mkpụrụ, bụrụ ndị na-amị mkpụrụ, na ndị bara uru nʼihe unu maara banyere Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.
9 For he that hath not these things, is blinde, and can not see farre off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his olde sinnes.
Ma onye ọbụla na-atụkwasịghị ihe ndị a nʼokwukwe ya nọ nʼọchịchịrị. Ọ naghị ahụ ụzọ. Ọ bụkwa onye na-echefu na a sachapụla ya mmehie ya, ndị o mere nʼoge gara aga.
10 Wherefore, brethren, giue rather diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye doe these things, ye shall neuer fall.
Nʼihi ya ụmụnna m, gbalịsienụ ike iguzosike nʼọkpụkpọ na nhọpụta unu. Nke a ga-eme ka unu hapụ ịsọ ngọngọ maọbụ daa.
11 For by this meanes an entring shalbe ministred vnto you aboundantly into the euerlasting kingdome of our Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, a ga-enye unu ohere dị ukwuu iji bata nʼalaeze ebighị ebi nke Onyenwe anyị na Onye nzọpụta anyị Jisọs Kraịst. (aiōnios g166)
12 Wherefore, I will not be negligent to put you alwayes in remembrance of these things, though that ye haue knowledge, and be stablished in the present trueth.
Aga m na-aga nʼihu na-echetara unu ihe ndị a site nʼoge ruo nʼoge. Ọ bụ ezie na unu maara na ha na-eguzosikwa ike nʼeziokwu ahụ unu natara.
13 For I thinke it meete as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stirre you vp by putting you in remembrance,
Ana m agụ ya nʼihe ziri ezi ịkpọte mmụọ unu na uche unu site nʼichetara unu ihe ndị a ugbu a m dị ndụ nʼanụ ahụ a.
14 Seeing I knowe that the time is at hand that I must lay downe this my tabernacle, euen as our Lord Iesus Christ hath shewed me.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst agwala m hoohaa, na m ga-eyipụ ya nʼoge na-adịghị anya.
15 I will endeuour therefore alwayes, that ye also may be able to haue remembrance of these things after my departing.
Aga m agbalịsi ike ịhụ na mgbe m hapụchara ụwa nke a, unu ga na-echeta ihe ndị a mgbe niile.
16 For we followed not deceiuable fables when we opened vnto you the power, and comming of our Lord Iesus Christ, but with our eyes we saw his maiestie:
Ihe niile anyị na-akọrọ unu abụghị akụkọ ifo mmadụ kọrọ site nʼamamihe ya. Nʼihi na anyị kọwaara unu ihe banyere ike Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst na ọbịbịa ọ ga-abịa ọzọ. Ọ bụ anya anyị abụọ ka anyị ji hụ ebube nke ịbụ eze ya.
17 For he receiued of God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voyce to him from that excellent glory, This is my beloued Sonne, in whom I am well pleased.
Nʼihi na ọ natara nsọpụrụ na ebube site nʼaka Chineke bụ Nna mgbe olu ahụ si nʼebube ahụ dị ukwuu daa sị, “Onye a bụ Ọkpara m, onye m hụrụ nʼanya, onye ihe ya dị m ezi mma.”
18 And this voyce we heard when it came from heauen, being with him in the Holy mount.
Anyị onwe anyị nụrụ olu ahụ si nʼeluigwe daa mgbe anyị so ya nọdụ nʼelu ugwu nsọ ahụ.
19 We haue also a most sure worde of the Prophets, to the which ye doe well that yee take heede, as vnto a light that shineth in a darke place, vntill the day dawne, and the day starre arise in your hearts.
Anyị nwapụtara na okwu ndị amụma ahụ bụ ihe mezuru emezu. Unu onwe unu kwesikwara ilezi anya nʼokwu ndị ahụ, dịka a ga-asị na ha bụ ìhè na-enwu nʼebe ọchịchịrị gbara nke na-adị ruo mgbe chi bọrọ, mgbe e mere ka kpakpando ọtụtụ walie nʼobi unu.
20 So that yee first knowe this, that no prophecie of the Scripture is of any priuate interpretation.
Nke ka nke, ghọtanụ na okwu amụma ọbụla dị nʼakwụkwọ nsọ abụghị nke e dere dịka akọnuche mmadụ si dị.
21 For the prophecie came not in olde time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moued by the holy Ghost.
Nʼihi na o nweghị okwu amụma ọbụla nke e chepụtara dị ka ọchịchọ obi mmadụ si dị, kama mgbe ndị mmadụ kwuru okwu nʼaha Chineke, ọ bụ Mmụọ Nsọ duru ha.
