2 Peter 2
1 But there arose false-prophets also among the people, as, among you also, there shall be, false-teachers, —men who will stealthily bring in destructive parties, even the Master that bought them, denying, bringing upon themselves speedy destruction;
Efa nisy mpaminany sandoka teo amin’ ny olona Isiraely, ary hisy koa mpampianatra sandoka tahaka izany eo aminareo, izay hahatonga mangingina sain-diso mahavery ary handà ny Tompo Izay nividy azy aza ka hahatonga fahaverezana tampoka ho amin’ ny tenany.
2 And, many, will follow out their wanton ways, —by reason of whom, the way of truth, will be defamed,
Ary maro no hanaraka ny fijejojejoany; ka ireny no hitenenan-dratsy ny lalan’ ny fahamarinana.
3 And, in greed, with forged words, will they, of you, make merchandise: for whom, the sentence from of old, is not idle, and, their destruction, doth not slumber.
Ary amin’ ny hafatratry ny fitiavany harena no hanaovany varotra anareo amin’ ny teny mamitaka; efa ela izay no tsy nijanonjanona ny fitsarana ireny, ary tsy rendremana ny fahaverezany.
4 For—if, God, spared not, messengers, when they sinned, but, to pits of gloom, consigning them, in the lowest hades, delivered them up to be kept, unto judgment, — (Tartaroō g5020)
Fa raha tsy navelan’ Andriamanitra ny anjely fony nanota, fa noroahiny ho any amin’ ny helo ka natolony ho ao an-davaka maizina mba hotehirizina ho amin’ ny fitsarana, (Tartaroō g5020)
5 And, an ancient world, spared not, but, with seven others, preserved, Noah, a proclaimer, of righteousness, a flood, upon a world of ungodly persons, letting loose, —
ary raha tsy namela izao rehetra izao taloha Izy, fa namonjy an’ i Noa, mpitory ny fahamarinana, sy ireo fito, fony nahatonga ny safo-drano tamin’ ny ratsy fanahy teo amin’ izao tontolo izao, ―
6 And, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, reducing to ashes, he condemned, an example of such as should be ungodly, having set forth, —
ary raha nataony nanjary lavenona ny tanàna Sodoma sy Gomora ka nohelohiny horavana ary nataony fananarana ho an’ izay ratsy fanahy ato aoriana, ―
7 And, righteous Lot, when getting worn out by the behaviour of them who were impious in wantonness, he rescued—
fa Lota marina, izay ory dia ory noho ny fijejojejoan’ ny olona ratsy fanahy, no novonjeny ho afaka
8 For, in seeing and hearing, since he dwelt right among them, as a righteous man, he used to torment his soul, day by day, with their lawless deeds—
(fa izany lehilahy marina izany, raha nitoetra teo aminy, dia nahory loatra ny fanahiny marina isan’ andro isan’ andro noho ny nahitany sy ny nandrenesany ny fandikan’ ireo ny lalàna):
9 [Then] the Lord knoweth how to rescue, the godly out of trial; but to keep, the unrighteous unto a day of judgment to be punished; —
dia fantatry ny Tompo izay hamonjeny ny tsara fanahy amin’ ny fakam-panahy sy ny hitehirizany ny olona tsy marina amin’ ny fijaliana ho amin’ ny andro fitsarana, ―
10 Most of all, however, them who go their way, after the flesh, with a coveting of defilement, and who despise, lordship, —daring! willful! before dignitaries, they tremble not, defaming,
indrindra fa izay mandeha araka ny fitarihan’ ny nofo hila zava-mahaloto ka manamavo ny manana fahalehibiazana. Ireo efa olona sahisahy, mitompo teny fantatra sady tsy matahotra hiteny ratsy ny manana voninahitra.
11 where, messengers, though, greater in might and power, are not bringing against them [before the Lord] a defamatory accusation, —
Fa ny anjely aza, izay mihoatra amin’ ny tanjaka sy ny hery, tsy mitondra fiampangana hitenenan-dratsy azy eo anatrehan’ ny Tompo.
12 These, however, as unreasoning creatures that have been bred as being, by nature, for capture and destruction, in the things they are ignorant of, uttering defamation, in their spoiling, shall also be made a spoil, —
Fa ireo kosa izay miteny ratsy ny zavatra tsy fantany (tahaka ny biby tsy manan-tsaina, fa zava-manan’ aina fotsiny ihany, izay teraka ho fisambotra sy ho famono) dia haringana tokoa amin’ ny fahalotoany,
13 Doing wrong themselves, for a reward of wrong, accounting, a delight, their day-time delicacy, spots and blemishes, indulging in delicacies with their stratagems, as they carouse together with you,
ary hiharan’ ny ratsy ho valin’ ny faharatsiany izy. Ataony ho zava-mahafinaritra ny velona vetivety amin’ ny fy, ka be pentimpentina sy tsiny izy sady velona amin’ ny fy eo amin’ ny fanasam-pifankatiavany, raha miara-mihinana aminareo.
14 Having, eyes, full of an adulteress, and that cannot rest from sin, enticing unstable souls, having, a heart trained in greed, —children of a curse, —
manana maso feno fijangajangana, izay tsy mety mitsahatra amin’ ny fahotana: dia mamitaka ny tsy miorina tsara izy; ary mampaharatra ny fony amin’ ny hafatratry ny fitiavany harena, dia zanaky ny fanozonana izy;
15 Forsaking a straight path, they have gone astray, following out the way of Balaam [son] of Beor, who loved, a reward of wrong,
efa niala tamin’ ny lalana mahitsy izy ka nivily nanaraka ny lalan’ i Balama, zanak’ i Beora, izay tia ny tambin’ ny tsi-fahamarinana.
16 But had, a reproof, of his own transgression, a dumb beast of burden, in man’s voice, finding utterance, forbade the prophet’s madness.
nefa voanatra izy noho ny fahotany: ny boriky moana efa nanao feon’ olona ka nisakana ny hadalan’ ilay mpaminany.
17 These, are fountains without water, and mists, by a tempest, driven along, —for whom, the gloom of darkness, hath been reserved;
Ireo efa loharano ritra, zavona entin’ ny tafio-drivotra, ka efa tehirizina ho azy ny fahamaintisan’ ny maizina.
18 For, great swelling words of vanity, uttering, they entice with carnal covetings—in wanton ways—them who are, well-nigh, escaping from the men who, in error, have their behaviour;
Fa mandoka fatratra ny zava-poana ireo, ka ny filan’ ny nofo, dia ny fijejojejoana, no entiny mamitaka ny olona izay saiky afaka tsy ho naman’ ny velona eo amin’ ny fahadisoana intsony;
19 Promising, freedom to them, they themselves, being all the while, slaves of corruption, —for, by whom one hath been defeated, by the same, hath he become enslaved, —
fahafahana no ampanantenainy ireny, kanjo ny tenany aza dia andevon’ ny fahalotoana; efa izay maharesy ny olona dia mahandevo avy.
20 For, if, having escaped from the defilements of the world by a personal knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, but, by the same having again become entangled, they are defeated, the, last, state hath become, for them, worse than, the first;
Fa raha misy efa afaka amin’ ny fahalotoan’ izao tontolo izao noho ny fahalalana tsara an’ i Jesosy Kristy, Tompo sy Mpamonjy, nefa voasingotr’ izany indray ka resy, ny farany dia ratsy noho ny voalohany.
21 For, better, had it been for them—not to have obtained a personal knowledge of the way of righteousness, than, having obtained such knowledge, to turn back out of the holy commandment delivered unto them.
Fa tsara aminy raha tsy nahalala ny lalan’ ny fahamarinana toy izay hiala amin’ ny didy masìna natolotra azy, rehefa nahalala izany izy.
22 There hath befallen them the thing [spoken of] in the true proverb—A dog, turning back unto his own vomit, and—A sow, as soon as washed, unto wallowing in mire.
Efa mihatra aminy ny ohabolana marina hoe: “Ny amboa miverina indray amin’ ny loany”, ary: “Ny kisoavavy efa nisasa dia mihosim-potaka indray.”
