2 Peter 3
1 This [is] now, beloved, a second letter I write to you, in both which I stir up your pure mind in reminding [you]
farub mib tomange wo na yobe ce ma mulang kume ne, take gwam ciye na kulum kace na ne kom bi kwan nere
2 to be mindful of the sayings said before by the holy prophets, and of the command of us the apostles of the LORD and Savior,
be na kom bulamgi ki kero nob tomange kange werfune wo teluwebe kange nii wo yafulo be nee nob tomange be
3 knowing this first, that there will come scoffers in the last days, going on according to their own desires,
yomom nob buwomeb an bow diye dika kume. ciyan buwo dike ci cwiye
4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things so remain from the beginning of the creation”;
ciyan yii kom kin fee nor yilakako? ka ciko tebbebo daken dume, dikero gwam tim ka cikca kwatti ter fwelkake.
5 for this they willingly conceal, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth having been established by the word of God out of water and through water,
ci ki mantum tabum fiya no ki ker kwamar dii ko kange Bitru fiya yime mor mweme
6 through which the world then, having been flooded by water, was destroyed;
take mwem wer kale, kale dim ka mwem
7 and by the same word, the present heavens and earth, having been stored up for fire, are being preserved until [the] day of judgment and destruction of impious men.
ka cikna kere, dii ko kange dor bitiner kum kira yome bi diye bolange kange werka nobo bwang ten bo kwama.
8 And do not let this one thing be concealed from you, beloved, that one day with the LORD [is] as one thousand years and one thousand years as one day;
farub kom tabre kume win fiye Teluwebe diye nine, na coro kwini bikate, coro kwini bikate na kume wine
9 the LORD is not slow in regard to the promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering to us, not intending any to be lost, but all to come to conversion,
kwama tibrang bo ki norcero, nawo kangem yi ti ki. tibrang tiye, nyeu co bii ner dor mwer co cwibo kange kume a kayam, di la gwam na fiya da yiloka
10 and it will come—the Day of the LORD—as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a rushing noise, and the elements will be dissolved with burning heat, and [the] earth and the works in it will not be found.
duwal kume kwama a bo na nii kuye. dii ko a cum ki diro dur. tibitinimbo a twim ki kira. tab-tab.
11 All these, then, being dissolved, what kind of persons ought you to be in holy behaviors and pious acts,
nyori tibitininbo wo gwam anwuro, nyeu ka yila nobo wani? kom yii wucak kange cwi kwama.
12 waiting for and hurrying the coming of the Day of God, by which the heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with burning heat?
kom ningtang diye boka kwama ko ti, diye co dii kwama an werum ki kira, tibitinimbo wuyak bwiyem kicilen kambo ken.
13 And we wait for new heavens and a new earth according to His promise, in which righteousness dwells;
dila nor ce, bo nintang dii kwama fwirko kange dor bitinero fwirko wo nobo cak-cak a yim tiye.
14 for this reason, beloved, waiting for these things, be diligent, spotless and unblameable, to be found by Him in peace,
nyori faumib, nyeu ko cwi dige wo tiyeu, dibe ko ti bati a fiya nen de ki duti mo tim cakcak kabom cem ki fowor nere.
15 and count the long-suffering of our Lord [as] salvation, according as also our beloved brother Paul—according to the wisdom given to him—wrote to you,
take to birum nee kwama co fulokako, nawo yibe bulu mulange ki yilen do kwama ne co.
16 as also in all the letters, speaking in them concerning these things, among which are some things [that are] hard to be understood, which the untaught and unstable twist, as also the other Writings, to their own destruction.
bulu tok dige wo mor bi fumer ceronin, wo kangem dikero wi wo bwai nyomka. fwandika kange nobo tibo fiye wine bongum digero wo na wo ci ma kangem bifumero ni neu, nur bware ciye
17 You, then, beloved, knowing before, take heed, lest, together with the error of the impious being led away, you may fall from your own steadfastness,
na weu farubmib kweri ka nyomom digerowo nyeu, ywelum bwi kume, kati nobo bwangten bo werfunere bol kom, lem bilenkere kume nin. la kom
The World is Destroyed by Water
