2 Peter 3
1 This second letter, beloved, I now write to you, in both which I stir up your pure minds by putting you in remembrance;
Loqꞌalaj taq alaxik, are wa ri ukabꞌ wuj ri kintzꞌibꞌaj chiꞌwe. Pa ukobꞌchal we wuj riꞌ nunaꞌtam chiꞌwe rech qas rukꞌ ichomabꞌal
2 that ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of the Lord and Saviour by your apostles;
kanaꞌtaj chiꞌwe ri kitzij ri tyoxalaj taq e qꞌalajisal taq rech ri utzij ri Dios ri xkitzijoj loq ojer xuqujeꞌ ri utaqanik ri Ajawxel qaKolonel ri xkitzijoj ri uꞌtaqoꞌn.
3 knowing this first, that there will come in the last days open scoffers following their own lusts,
Chiwetaꞌmaj kꞌut chi pa taq ri kꞌisbꞌal taq qꞌij kepe na winaq ri kakiyak kitzeꞌ chiꞌwij, xuqujeꞌ are kakitereneꞌj ri itzel taq kirayinik, kakibꞌij:
4 and saying, Where is his promised coming? for, from the time when the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as then, and as they have continued from the beginning of the creation.
¿La man kꞌu xubꞌij kanoq ri Cristo chi katzalij na loq? Maj jawjeꞌ kꞌo wi leꞌ. Ri e qatat qanan xekam bꞌik, maj kꞌexkꞌobꞌinaq che ronojel le jastaq, xaq je ubꞌanik jetaq ri xtikitaj loq ojer.
5 For of this they are willingly ignorant, that of old by the word of God there were heavens, and an earth formed out of the water and by the water,
Kakibꞌano chi kasachan chike ri xubꞌan ri utzij ri Dios ojer. Xa rumal ri utzij xtiktaj loq ri kaj xuqujeꞌ ri ulew, xuqujeꞌ ri jaꞌ.
6 by means of which the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished;
Are ri tzij rachiꞌl ri jaꞌ, xbꞌanowik chi xejiqꞌ ri winaq ri e kꞌo ojer.
7 but the present heavens and the present earth are by his word kept in store, reserved for fire against the day of judgment and the perdition of ungodly men.
Kamik kꞌut, xa rumal ri tzij, ri kaj rachiꞌl ri ulew e yaktal na rech keporoxik are kuriq ri uqꞌijal kaqꞌat na tzij pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri itzel taq winaq.
8 But forget not, beloved, this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Loqꞌalaj taj wachalal, masachan kꞌut chiꞌwe chi jun qꞌij jer kꞌo jun mil junabꞌ choch ri Ajawxel xuqujeꞌ jun mil junabꞌ je ri kꞌo jun qꞌij.
9 The Lord is not tardy concerning his promise, as some men count tardiness; but is long-suffering toward you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Ri Dios man kabꞌeyetaj taj chubꞌanik ri utzujum kanoq, pune e kꞌi kebꞌinik chi xa bꞌeyetajinaq. Ri Dios ixrayeꞌm na, rumal cher man karaj taj chi kꞌo jun kasach kanoq xane konojel kakikꞌex na kikꞌuꞌx.
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 melt with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are therein will be burned up.
Are kꞌu ri qꞌij rech ri upetibꞌal ri Ajawxel kajunumataj rukꞌ ri upetibꞌal jun elaqꞌom. Che ri qꞌij riꞌ katukix na ri kaj. Ronojel ri jastaq ri kꞌo choch ri uwachulew xuqujeꞌ ri uwachulew kaporox na rumal ri qꞌaqꞌ.
11 Seeing that all these things are thus to be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in holy conduct and godliness,
Ronojel katukix na, rumal riꞌ choqꞌaqꞌ kikꞌaslebꞌej jun chꞌajchꞌoj laj kꞌaslemal jetaq ri karaj ri Dios
12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, by reason of which the heavens being on fire will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat!
rech jeriꞌ kiwayeꞌj ri qꞌij rech ri upetibꞌal ri Dios. Che ri qꞌij riꞌ, rukꞌ qꞌaqꞌ ketukix na ri kaj, kejaꞌrisax na.
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
Ri Cristo kꞌut xutzuj kanoq kꞌakꞌ taq kaj xuqujeꞌ kꞌakꞌ ulew jawjeꞌ kabꞌan wi na ri sukꞌal.
14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for these things, be diligent that ye may be found without spot and blameless before him in peace,
Rumal riꞌ, loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, utz majaꞌ kakꞌulmataj taq we jastaq riꞌ, chibꞌana ichuqꞌabꞌ rech are kape ri Dios man ix chꞌuluj taj kixuluriqaꞌ xane maj imak xuqujeꞌ utz ibꞌanik rukꞌ areꞌ.
15 and account the long-suffering of our Lord salvation; as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,
Naꞌtaj chiꞌwe chi ri Ajawxel man petinaq ta na, rumal rayeꞌm kekolotaj konojel, jetaq kubꞌij ri xutzꞌibꞌaj ri alaxik Pablo, rukꞌ ri etaꞌmanik ri xya che rumal ri Dios.
16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which things are some that are hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as also the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
Pa ronojel ri uwuj ri Pablo xtzijon chirij ri upetibꞌal ri Cristo, pune kꞌo jastaq ri kꞌax uchꞌobꞌik, are kꞌu ri winaq ri maj ketaꞌmabꞌal kakikꞌex ubꞌixik we tzij riꞌ, je kakibꞌan che ronojel ri utzij ri Dios, nimalaj kꞌax kꞌu na kape pa kiwiꞌ we winaq ri jeriꞌ kakibꞌano.
17 Do ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things beforehand, beware lest, being led away with the error of the lawless, ye fall from your own steadfastness.
Xaq jeriꞌ, loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, iwetaꞌm chi loq waꞌ we riꞌ, ko bꞌa chixkꞌoloq, miya bꞌe kixjururex bꞌik chubꞌanik ri mak rech ri tyoꞌjal, rech man kixel ta kanoq pa ri tunal.
The Great Flood
