2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
sima Bitru igra nivren u tondu yesu kristi ba yarson christi ni bi aw kikpa. yosron ni mi ti ndi ndi trsimbu ni yesu almasihu.
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
ni ndu ti ndindi ndu sisron bi nho nigon u toh ijri ni yesu bachiimbu.
3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that [pertain] unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
didi ikpi bi sisenri ndidima a nota ntu toh irji wadi a ota zu ni gbiresan u bima.
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
ni tuki a yo nyu bi rigmar didima nita wu du khi kpande ubu ni irji. wa khi dju nimi memeteh u ibrji ni gbublua wa a ii ye u sorkpa
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
ni tu naki bi ka ti mi gbengbene bi ni ndu tie ndi ndi ni tie ndindi ni yosron bi ndu nho.
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
ni vutu ni tu yotutya bi be ka yotutya nivu sonyo ni mi vu sonro bi ka yotu ni hwu irji.
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
ni mi hwu irji br ka yotu ni son bebeh umrivyayi ni tu son bebe u mrivayi ni tu son bebe u umrivayi be ka yoyu ni son kpabi.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make [you that ye shall] neither [be] barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ikpi beyi ba ta he nimi bi; u ba gbronni mi bi indji ribi na kudjur na ni tui toh u irji bu yesu Almasihu sun ni krju ko ka sun hanma ni ngrji na ni toh bachrimbr yesu.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
indji wa a wabi kpi yi hanama ani ya ikpe wa ahe whiwhir mi gen kawa yar shishi. a kpa ri su andi ba ngwala rju ni mi min chiche latre mba
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
nit kima mrivaye bi ka te ni gbegble bi wawu de toh ni yao bia ni chur bia beta ti kpi beyi be na kubuza na
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
naki u be ka sami ri ni ko irji bu wa a kpatata chuwoa yesu yesu almasihu (aiōnios g166)
12 Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know [them], and be established in the present truth.
ni tu nakima me son si gbeh chachu de ti yi kaa ni yu kpi be yi me toh de be toh mba naki u be ka tigbegble ni najaaji u zezah.
13 Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting [you] in remembrance;
ime me rimeren naki du mi chon yi du yi tika ni kpi be yi u me rihe ni mi kpayi.
14 Knowing that shortly I must put off [this] my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
mi toh ni vi nton tsa me mi ka ikpa yi don na wa yesu Almasihu a tsoro me.
15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
me ti ni gbegble mu chachu du yi kata tika ikpi beyi a u meta kayi don.
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
ni tu khita khi na hwu ibaltre u wuri mba na u khi hla ni yiwa gbegble ni ye irji bu yesu Almasihu u khta khto gbegble ma.
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
na kima a kpah gibresan u bima ni irji ite bu niton wa nlan a ye ni mi gegble u gbiresan da tere e wayi wa weh a hi iveremu u sonmu wa ani sime sonro u njaaji.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
ki wo lan yirji shu niton wa ki na he baba ni tita u tsatsra.
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
khi he ni ilan tere wa khi toh ani ye njaaji khi ta yo soron ni mba ani he na ilu wa a ni kpah ni bua na tsitse wa ani kpah ni buu ble ani kpah ni mi sunron bi.
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
bika to wayi arjini mumla mu andi be toh kima ni mumlamu ba idi. wawuu a tozu na he ni tu kpeiri zan indji mla du toh ba hla itereri wa ani na ye ni kpakyeme u idi u idi tu tere
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost.
ba nati bre tozu ni sonsron ni tu irji wa mba he niibrji u tsa indji na ni ndu he naki a hi a hi brji tsatsra mba ni yo ba ni ndu ba latre rii.
