2 Peter 2
1 But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
Atoro adiyifo kɔɔ tetefo no mu, na saa ara nso na atoro adiyifo bɛba mo mu ara ne no. Wɔbɛma nkyerɛkyerɛ bɔne a nokware nni mu na wɔapa Owura a ogyee wɔn no, na ɛnam so ama ɔsɛe aba wɔn so prɛko pɛ.
2 And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of.
Nnipa bebree bɛfa akwammɔne so na esiane nea wɔyɛ no nti, nnipa bɛkasa atia nokware kwan no.
3 And in covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose sentence now from of old lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not.
Saa atoro adiyifo yi nam wɔn sikanibere so bɛto anansesɛm akyerɛ mo de apɛ mo so mfaso. Wɔn temmufo siesiee ne ho akyɛ, na saa ara nso na wɔn sɛefo no nso asɔre agyina.
4 For if God spared not angels when they sinned, but cast them down to hell, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
Onyankopɔn amfa abɔfo a wɔyɛɛ bɔne no ho ankyɛ wɔn. Ɔtow wɔn guu asaman sum mu baabi, guu wɔn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn, na ɛhɔ na wɔretwɛn atemmu no. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 and spared not the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Onyankopɔn amma tete wiase no amfa ne ho anni. Ɔmaa nsuyiri baa wɔn a na wonsuro Onyankopɔn no so. Wɔn a ogyee wɔn nkwa no ne Noa a ɔkaa trenee ho asɛm no ne nnipa baason bi.
6 and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, having made them an example unto those that should live ungodly;
Onyankopɔn buu Sodom ne Gomora fɔ de ogya sɛee wɔn, de bɔɔ wɔn a wonsuro Onyankopɔn no kɔkɔ.
7 and delivered righteous Lot, sore distressed by the lascivious life of the wicked
Ogyee Lot a ɔyɛ ɔtreneeni no fii nnipa nnebɔneyɛfo nsam.
8 (for that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] lawless deeds):
Na saa ɔtreneeni no te saa nnipa nnebɔneyɛfo no mu; na afide a na saa nnipa no yɛ no adekyee ne adesae no haw no yiye.
9 the Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment unto the day of judgment;
Sɛ ɛte saa de a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ Awurade nim ɔkwan a ɔfa so gye nʼakyidifo fi ɔhaw mu, na onim ɔkwan a ɔfa so kora nnipa nnebɔneyɛfo, twe wɔn aso de twɛn atemmuda no.
10 but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise dominion. Daring, selfwilled, they tremble not to rail at dignities:
Ne titiriw no, eyi fa wɔn a wodi wɔn honam akɔnnɔ akyi na wɔpa Onyankopɔn tumi no ho. Saa atoro akyerɛkyerɛfo yi wɔ akokoduru na wommu anuonyamfo a wɔwɔ ɔsoro no, efisɛ wonsuro sɛ wɔyaw wɔn.
11 whereas angels, though greater in might and power, bring not a railing judgment against them before the Lord.
Na abɔfo a wɔwɔ ahoɔden ne tumi sen saa atoro akyerɛkyerɛfo yi mpo nka nsɛmmɔne mmu wɔn atɛn wɔ Awurade anim.
12 But these, as creatures without reason, born mere animals to be taken and destroyed, railing in matters whereof they are ignorant, shall in their destroying surely be destroyed,
Nanso saa nnipa yi yɛ wɔn nneɛma te sɛ mmoa a wunni adwene, wɔwo wɔn sɛ wɔnkyere wɔn nkum wɔn. Wogu nneɛma biara a wɔnte ase no ho fi. Wɔbɛsɛe wɔn sɛ mmoa.
13 suffering wrong as the hire of wrong-doing; [men] that count it pleasure to revel in the day-time, spots and blemishes, revelling in their love-feasts while they feast with you;
Wobetua wɔn ɔhaw a wɔma ɛbaa no so ka. Nea wɔn ani gye ho ne sɛ wɔbɛyɛ biribiara a eye ma wɔn honam akɔnnɔ no awia ketee. Sɛ wɔne mo to nsa didi a, egu wɔn anim ase. Efisɛ saa bere no na wɔka nnaadaasɛm.
14 having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; enticing unstedfast souls; having a heart exercised in covetousness; children of cursing;
Wɔnhwehwɛ hwee sɛ mmea nguamanfo efisɛ wɔpɛ sɛ daa wɔyɛ bɔne. Wɔdaadaa nnipa a wɔyɛ mmerɛw kɔ bɔne mu. Wɔayɛn wɔn koma ama anibere. Wɔwɔ Onyankopɔn nnome ase.
15 forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the [son] of Beor, who loved the hire of wrong-doing;
Wɔaman afi ɔkwan tee no so enti wɔayera. Wɔafa ɔkwan a Beor ba Bileam a ɔde ne sika a onya no yɛ bɔne no kɔfaa so no so.
16 but he was rebuked for his own transgression: a dumb ass spake with man’s voice and stayed the madness of the prophet.
Eyi ma wɔkaa nʼanim wɔ ne bɔne no ho. Nʼafurum de onipa nne kasa de siw odiyifo no adammɔsɛm no ho kwan.
17 These are springs without water, and mists driven by a storm; for whom the blackness of darkness hath been reserved.
Saa nnipa yi te sɛ asuti a ayow anaasɛ omununkum a mframa bɔ no. Onyankopɔn de wɔn asie sum kabii mu wɔ baabi. (questioned)
18 For, uttering great swelling [words] of vanity, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by lasciviousness, those who are just escaping from them that live in error;
Wɔka ahantansɛm ne nkwaseasɛm na wɔnam wɔn honam akɔnnɔ ho nnaadaa so twetwe wɔn a wɔatwe wɔn ho afi nnebɔneyɛfo ho no.
19 promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he also brought into bondage.
Wɔhyɛ wɔn ahofadi ho bɔ wɔ bere a wɔn ankasa yɛ bɔne nkoa efisɛ onipa yɛ biribiara a edi no so no akoa.
20 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the last state is become worse with them than the first.
Na sɛ onipa sua yɛn Awurade ne yɛn Agyenkwa Yesu Kristo ho asɛm, na ɔnam so guan fi wiase yi mu akwammɔne so, na akyiri no ɔkɔ bɔne mu bio ma ɔdan bɔne akoa a, ɛno de ɛyɛ hu sen ne kan no.
21 For it were better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
Sɛ anka wonnim Kristo koraa a, anka eye ma wɔn sen sɛ wobesua ne ho nsɛm na afei wɔbɛdan wɔn akyi akyerɛ mmara Kronkron a wɔde maa wɔn no.
22 It has happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog turning to his own vomit again, and the sow that had washed to wallowing in the mire.
Nea ɛbaa wɔn so no kyerɛ sɛ, saa bɛ yi yɛ nokware. “Ɔkraman san kɔtaforo ne fe na prako a wɔaguare no no nso koguare wɔ dontori mu.”
