< 2 Peter 3 >
1 This is now, beloved, the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them I stir up your sincere mind by reminding you;
Balingami na ngai, tala mokanda ya mibale oyo nakomeli bino. Kati na mikanda nyonso mibale, nazali koluka kolamusa, kati na makanisi na bino, malakisi oyo bozwaki, mpo ete bokoma kokanisa na lolenge ya peto,
2 that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles:
mpo ete bokanisa lisusu maloba oyo basakoli ya bule balobaki na tango ya kala mpe Mibeko oyo Nkolo mpe Mobikisi apesaki na nzela ya bantoma na bino.
3 knowing this first, that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking and walking after their own lusts,
Liboso na nyonso, boyeba ete, na mikolo ya suka, batioli bakobima, bakotambola kolanda baposa na bango moko
4 and saying, "Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation."
mpe bakoloba: « Boni, alakaki te ete akoya? Wapi ye sik’oyo? Pamba te, banda bakoko na biso bakufa, makambo nyonso ezali na yango kaka ndenge ezalaka wuta na ebandeli ya mokili. »
5 For this they willfully forget, that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water, by the word of God;
Wana bakanisaka bongo, babosanaka na nko ete, na kala, Likolo mpe mabele ezalaki; ete na nzela ya Liloba na Nzambe, mabele ebimaki wuta na mayi mpe epikamaki kati na mayi.
6 by which means the world that then was, being deluged with water, was destroyed.
Babosanaka mpe ete ezali lisusu na nzela ya mayi yango nde mokili ya tango wana ebebisamaki wana ezindaki kati na mayi.
7 But the heavens that now are, and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly people.
Nzokande, ezali mpe kaka Liloba yango nde azali kobomba Likolo mpe mabele ya sik’oyo mpo na kozika na moto, na mokolo ya kosambisama mpe ya kobebisama ya bato ya masumu.
8 But do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Balingami na ngai, ezali na likambo moko oyo bosengeli te kobosana: mpo na Nkolo, mokolo moko ezali lokola mibu nkoto moko, mpe mibu nkoto moko ezali lokola mokolo moko.
9 The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Bato ebele bakanisaka ete Nkolo azali kowumela mpo na kokokisa elaka na Ye; nzokande azali nde kokanga motema mpo na bino, pamba te alingi ete moko te abunga, kasi alingi ete bato nyonso babongola mitema.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works on it will not be found.
Solo, mokolo ya Nkolo ekoya lokola moyibi. Na mokolo yango, na lokito monene, Likolo ekolimwa, biloko ekozika na moto mpe ekonyangwama, mabele mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango ekozwa etumbu ya kobebisama na moto.
11 Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Lokola nyonso esengeli konyangwama ndenge wana, bosengeli kotambola ndenge nini? Bosengeli kotambola na bomoi ya bule mpe na botosi kati na makambo ya Nzambe
12 looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
wana bozali kozela mokolo ya Nzambe mpe kosala ete mokolo yango eya noki. Na mokolo yango, Likolo elongo na biloko nyonso ekozika mpe ekonyangwama na moto.
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
Nzokande, biso, kolanda elaka na Ye, tozali kozela Likolo ya sika mpe mabele ya sika epai wapi bosembo ekozala.
14 Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without blemish and blameless in his sight.
Yango wana, balingami na ngai, wana bozali kozela yango, bosala makasi mpo ete Nzambe akuta bino peto, bozangi pamela mpe bozali kati na kimia oyo apesaka.
15 Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you;
Boyeba malamu ete ezali mpo na lobiko na bino nde Nkolo na biso azali nanu kokanga motema, ndenge Polo, ndeko na biso ya bolingo, akomelaki bino, kolanda bwanya oyo Nzambe apesaki ye.
16 as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
Azali kokoma bongo kati na mikanda nyonso epai wapi azali kolobela makambo yango. Kati na mikanda yango, ezali na makambo mosusu ya makasi mpo na kososola; bongo bato oyo bazangi boyebi mpe balendisama malamu te na kondima bazali kobongola ndimbola na yango, ndenge kaka bazali mpe kobongola ndimbola ya biteni mosusu ya Makomi, mpo na libebi na bango moko.
17 You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
Balingami na ngai, lokola bosili kozwa boyebi oyo, bosala keba ete bomemama te na mopepe ya mabunga ya bato oyo batosaka Nzambe te, mpo ete bobungisa te kondima na bino;
18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus (the) Messiah. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen. (aiōn )
kasi bokola kati na ngolu mpe boyebi ya Yesu-Klisto, Nkolo mpe Mobikisi na biso. Tika ete nkembo epesamela Ye, wuta sik’oyo kino libela na libela! Amen! (aiōn )
