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;
Ry malala, ity no epistily faharoa soratako ho aminareo ankehitriny, ka izy roroa dia samy entiko mampifoha ny sainareo madio amin’ ny fampahatsiarovana,
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:
mba hahatsiarovanareo ny teny voalazan’ ny mpaminany masìna rahateo sy ny didin’ ny Tompo sady Mpamonjy izay nentin’ ny Apostoly nirahina ho atỳ aminareo;
3 knowing this first, that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking and walking after their own lusts,
efa fantatrareo voalohany indrindra fa amin’ ny andro farany dia hisy mpaniratsira avy haniratsira, mandeha araka ny filany
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."
ka manao hoe: Aiza ny teny fikasana ny amin’ ny fihaviany? Fa hatrizay nodian’ ny razana mandry dia maharitra tsy miova ny zavatra rehetra; eny, hatramin’ ny nanaovana izao tontolo izao aza.
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;
Fa minia jamba ireo ka tsy mahalala fa nisy hatramin’ ny ela ny lanitra, ary nisy tany koa, izay niseho avy tamin’ ny rano, sady rano no nanaovana azy tamin’ ny tenin’ Andriamanitra,
6 by which means the world that then was, being deluged with water, was destroyed.
ary rano koa no nandravana izao rehetra izao taloha tamin’ ny nanasaforany azy;
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.
fa izao lanitra sy tany ankehitriny izao dia hazonin’ izany teny izany ho amin’ ny afo ka tehirizina ho amin’ ny andro fitsarana sy fandringanana ny ratsy fanahy.
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.
Nefa, ry malala, izao zavatra iray loha izao no aoka tsy hohadinoinareo: ny indray andro amin’ ny Tompo dia toy ny arivo taona, ary ny arivo taona toy ny indray andro.
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.
Ny Tompo tsy mahela ny teny fikasany, araka izay ataon’ ny sasany ho fahelany; fa mahari-po aminareo Izy, ka tsy tiany hisy ho very, fa mba ho tonga amin’ ny fibebahana izy rehetra,
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.
Fa ho avy tahaka ny mpangalatra ny andron’ ny Tompo, ary amin’ izany ny lanitra dia ho lasa amin’ ny firimorimoana mafy, ary ho levon’ ny afo ny tenan’ ny zavatra rehetra, ka hodorana avokoa ny tany sy ny asa izay eo aminy.
11 Therefore since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Koa raha ho levona toy izany izao zavatra rehetra izao, dia olona tokony hanao ahoana moa ianareo amin’ ny fitondran-tena masìna sy ny toe-panahy araka an’ Andriamanitra,
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?
sady manantena no mampahafaingana ny hihavian’ ny andron’ Andriamanitra, izay hahamay sy hahalevona ny lanitra ary handoro sy hampiempo ny tenan’ ny zavatra rehetra!
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
Kanefa isika, araka ny teny fikasany, dia manantena lanitra vaovao sy tany vaovao, izay itoeran’ ny fahamarinana.
14 Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without blemish and blameless in his sight.
Koa amin’ izany, ry malala, satria manantena izany zavatra izany ianareo, efa mazotoa mba ho hita tsy manan-tsiny amam-pondro eo anatrehan’ ny Tompo amin’ ny fihavanana.
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;
Ary ny fahari-pon’ ny Tompontsika dia ekeo ho famonjena, tahaka ny voasoratr’ i Paoly, rahalahy malalantsika, taminareo koa araka ny fahendrena nomena azy,
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.
tahaka ny ataony ao amin’ ny epistiliny rehetra koa, fa milaza izany zavatra izany ao aminy izy; ary amin’ ireo efa misy zavatra saro-pantarina, izay aolan’ ny olona kely fahalalana sady tsy miorina tsara, tahaka ny anaovany ny teny sasany amin’ ny Soratra Masìna koa, ka mahatonga fahaverezana ho an’ ny tenany.
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.
Koa, satria fantatrareo rahateo izany, ry malala, dia tandremo fandrao ho voataonan’ ny fahadisoan’ ny ratsy fanahy ianareo ka ho lavo hiala amin’ izay iorenanareo;
The World is Destroyed by Water
