2 Peter 3
1 I indeed, beloved, write unto you this second epistle; in which I stir up your pure mind by remembrance:
Ulu ni huhosimbila uve vigane ekalata yavile ili uhu kamelesia katiha uluhala,
2 to remember the words which have been spoken hitherto by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Saviour by your apostles:
ili uweswe uhukomboha amamenyu agajoviwe kabula unya malago uKlisite nuhuhusu indagelo cha upohi vito uvihu tupoha uvitumela avakongi.
3 knowing this first, that at the last days mockers will come forth in scoffing, walking according to their own lusts,
Uwelewe huwanjo uhuta avitulanongwa kihwicha hu sihu icha humwisio uhuva changanya yumwe vu viluta ni amli cha vene.
4 and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for from the day when the fathers fell asleep, all things remain as from the beginning of creation.
Nichova uhuta yele ndahu uludehano ulwa huki livuha dada veto vafuile lakini ifinu ivi vyahumile huwanja uhwavumbile.
5 For they willingly forget this, that the heavens were in the olden time, and the earth standing out of the water and through the water, by the word of God;
Vahefanya uhusamwe ihelunga vihumine na magasi nuhugendela amagasiga hatale hulimenyu ilwa Nguluve,
6 by which the world at that time, being flooded with water, perished:
uhusendela mlimenyu ilia mwene nama gasi gavaha kilonga huhepindi ihwo hagaviwe amagasi heha nangeha.
7 but now the heavens and the earth have been kept according to the same word, being reserved for fire in the day of judgment and the destruction of the ungodly people.
Ululeno hukianya napasi kutonjiwe hulimenye lelelwo ilwa moto levehiwe hwa ajili ya yahuhegiwe uhwongomela awanu avalevuvule uNguluve.
8 But let not this one thing be forgotten, beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Sayiweswa uhunanga elimenyu iliaho husihu yemo hwanguluke ni kama miaha mia moja elfu moja ni kama sihu yemo.
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some people count slackness; but is long-suffering for your sakes, not wishing that any should perish, but all come to repentance.
Sio khuva uNguluve ivomba mlamola uhutimeswa ulu dehano kama umyihweleveha umwene mwaminifu hwa ajili yenyo umwene sinogwa ihungomela lakini ihumia usehe ili uhwe pala imbivi.
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements being scorched up will be dissolved, and the earth and the works in it will be burnt up.
Inave, isihu ya Nguluve yifiha yiva kama undiasi ehelunga hela genda hwa huchova ekelele ifinu vilanangeha no mwoto. Ihelonga hwini helava mbuvalafu.
11 Then all these things being dissolved, what kind of people does it behoove you to be in holy deportment and godliness,
Uhuva ifinu vyoni nangeha hunjela eye. Je ulava mnu vani utame he Klisite na emitamelo gwa he Nguluve.
12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being on fire will be dissolved, and the elements being scorched up are melted?
Yinogwa uhelewa halaga uhwicha hwa Nguluve isihu eyo ehelunga helanangeha nu moto nifinu vilayeyoha no moto.
13 But, according to his promises, we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, wherein righteousness dwells.
Uhuhumana ne ahadi ya mwene tugojela ehelunga ehepya ambamo avenya lweli vitama.
14 Therefore, beloved, looking for these things, be diligent to be found spotless and blameless unto him in peace:
Leno vagane tutegemela ifinu ifi etange sana uhusita uhulalameha nuhuva ne amani nave.
15 and consider the longsuffering of the Lord's salvation; as our beloved brother Paul according to the wisdom which was given unto him has written unto you;
Ni fata ukwe yomelecha hwa Nguluve katika uhwohwolewa kama vagane va Paulo, avasimbile umwe uhuhumana nuhwedeha ambayo ahapohilwe.
16 as also in all his epistles, speaking in the same concerning these things; in which there are some things hard to understand, which the unlearned and unestablished wrest, as they also do the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
UPaulo alihujovela ago goni mkalata iya mwene hule finu ifi gumu uhuvyelewa avanu vava vakosiche eadabu na uvuimala vafinangile ifinu ivyo numvivombela uhusimba huhwa huhwelekea uhwongomela hwavene.
17 Then you, beloved, foreknowing watch, lest, having been led away by the delusion of the ungodly, you may fall from your own stedfastness:
Hivyo vagane uhuva mlumanyile ago lolelanaga ili msite uhuyagwa edeme mwevena ili msite uhuyagwa nuvudesi uwavapohaji nu huvayacha uwe lweli.
The Great Flood
