< 2 Peter 2 >

1 Just like there were false prophets among the [Israeli] people [long ago], so there will also be teachers who teach false [things] among you. They will enter [your congregations] without you realizing [what/who they are], and they will [spiritually] injure some people by what they teach. Specifically, these teachers will even deny [that] the Lord [Jesus died to] pay [for the guilt of our sins]. As a result, they will soon destroy themselves [spiritually, and God will also punish them].
Anu kurzuzo utize timacico wa suro anyimo anu, kasi sa adi kem anu udungura amacico anyimo ashime, wadi e anyimo anihunzi barki wa cari abanga, wadi gaa we desa maa e inwe.
2 And many [people] will behave in an extremely immoral manner, imitating the extremely immoral way [these teachers who teach false things] behave. As a result, [unbelievers] will (discredit the true message/say the true message is false).
Anu gbardang wadi tarsi uzatu urusa uwe me, usuro uwe me wadi gaa me unna ukadure barki we.
3 Because [the teachers of false teaching] want a lot of things that other people have, [they think that] by telling you stories that they themselves have (made up/invented), they will get money from you. [God decided] long ago [that he would] punish them, and he has not fallen asleep [LIT]! [He will certainly destroy them]!
Ana amu mum muriba anu dungura umacico wadi ri aje inshi in tize timacico ma weme. Amu weki tize ace awe me datti, desa madi hu we mamu tonno riri.
4 God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō g5020)
Asere daki ma kaska ibe ikadura kame ni ba sa wa wuzi imum imadini. Maa vingi we akura ura, ma tuburko we anyimo ati wa ti concon, tima re mabibit, akurzo we uhana uwui uweki utize. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 He also got rid of [LIT] [the people who lived in] [MTY] the world long ago. He saved [only] eight of them, including Noah, who was a righteous preacher. God saved them when he destroyed in a flood [all] (the ungodly people/the people whose lives were not pleasing to him) [who were living then].
Ya ira daki ma kaska anu nin datti unutuba ba, ma tarsi in Nuhu una utize tihuma, nan aye anu sunare, uganiya sa maa tumi mei ma utufana uhana anyimo unee uge me wa anu zatu tarsa Asere.
6 He also condemned Sodom and Gomorrah [cities]; that is, he destroyed them by burning them completely to ashes. [By doing that] he gave a warning to those who afterwards would live in (an ungodly way/a way that is displeasing to him).
Me sa maa kurzo nipin nu Usaduma nan Ugomorata mutto, maa weki we tize ti iwono, ma kurzo we imumum ahira adesa wada tarsa Asere ba.
7 But he rescued [Abraham’s nephew], Lot, who was a righteous [man. Lot] was (greatly distressed/very sad) because the people [in Sodom] were doing very immoral things.
Me mani maa buri Lutu una kadure, desa imum igebe sa ana gbas waa wuzi ya cari me iriba ni kan.
8 That righteous [man’s] soul (was tormented/suffered great agony) day after day because he saw and heard those wicked people behave in a very lawless/wicked [manner when he was] living among them.
Barki imum igino me sa unu kadure kagino me maa wuzi, maa iri uganiya ma raa anyimo awe, kondi uya uwui make ma kunna ukuni ukatuma ku gbas uwe me iriba ime me una kadure.
9 And since the Lord God [rescued Lot, you can be sure that] he knows how to rescue (other godly people/people whose lives please him) from their sufferings, and [he is able] to preserve (ungodly [people/people whose lives do not please him]), [whom he has started to] punish even now, until the time when he will [finish judging them and punish] them.
Asere arusa una sa madi buri anu biyau bime abi basa-basa, ma kuri ma karti anu akadure uhana uweki utize tini kubu.
10 [He will punish especially severely] those [ungodly teachers who teach false things] who do the things that their self-directed nature desires, things that (defile them/cause them to be completely impure). Those [teachers of false teachings] despise [all beings who] rule [over them]. 2 Peter 2:10d-16 Because [those teachers of false doctrines are] extremely arrogant/proud [DOU], they (are not afraid to insult/boldly speak evil about) glorious beings [in heaven] (OR, glorious/wonderful beings [who rule over people]).
Andesa wamu reki ace awe anyimo amei maje mazenzeng sa ma carsa anu nin, wa iziza tigomo. Anu debe-debe aje wani, unu ugbas wani, wada kunna biyau buzogo ana tigomo ba.
11 In contrast, angels do not insult [those teachers] when those teachers accuse the angels [of blasphemy] while the Lord God is watching, even though the angels are much more powerful [DOU] [than the teachers of false doctrines].
Ibe iriri sa wazi datti, wa teki we in nikara, vat anime daki nya aburi aje Asere ba.
12 Because those [teachers of false doctrines are] like animals that cannot think [as humans do] [DOU], they say evil things about [spiritual] things which they know nothing about. [As a result], God will destroy them like [people] destroy [animals], [animals] that are born only in order to be hunted and killed {in order that [people] should hunt and kill them}.
Anu aginome, wazi gusi inama a'iro anu uzatu unuce, anu tarsa imum igebesa apum awe anya we cas, adesa anyo, barki ameki ahu, wa cari imum igebe sa da wa tinka ba, wadi wi barki ucorno ugino uwe me.
13 God will punish [those teachers] in return for the unrighteous actions/things that they have done. They even like (to carouse/to drink and revel noisily) in the daytime [as well as at night]. And as they indulge/enjoy themselves just like they want to while they are feasting with you, they cause you to become impure, [as] [MET] stains and blotches [DOU] [ruin a clean garment].
Wa zinu usa ukem ukatuma kaburi kaweme wa zika agi ukunna urunta uni unu wui ace wa cukuno abit, imum imu'i, waa nya ace abi riza-riza nan bisiza-siza wa zinu kunna urunta anyimo ashi.
14 They [want to commit] [MTY] adultery [with every woman] whom they look at. They never stop seeking opportunities to sin. They entice/persuade those who are [spiritually] unstable [to join them in doing the sinful things that they do]. [Because of] their ever-increasing (greed/desire to have more and more things), they are doomed [to eternal punishment].
Madini mutarsa ane ahira awe me, wada tiso me inkatuma kamadini, wa ranga andesa da wa barka ace awe ba. Wa rusa ulindaru. Andesa a wuna we ayu.
15 They have (rejected good moral standards/quit doing what everyone knows is right). They have imitated [what the prophet] Balaam, the son of Bosor, [did long ago]. He, [acting very] unrighteously, wanted [the enemies of the Jews] to pay him if he [asked God] ([to curse/to do bad thing to]) [the Jews].
Waa vete una udert, wa hunne we wa tarsa una ubal, amu vana Ubeyor, desa ma nyara ukenzi una imumu iriba.
16 But God rebuked him for having done that which was wrong [and for] behaving very foolishly. And even though donkeys do not speak, [God used] a donkey to hinder Balaam [by enabling it to] speak to him with a human voice.
Agbarika me ahira uszikime ume, binama ba'iro bizatu iyau ba buki tize kasi unu bi gbarika iranza unu ukurzuzo utize ugino me.
17 These [teachers who each false things mislead/deceive people by promising what they cannot do], as [MET] dried-up springs [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect to get water from them]. They [mislead/deceive people] [MET] just like clouds that are blown along by strong winds [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect rain, but no rain falls. Therefore], God has reserved the darkness of hell [for those teachers of false doctrines]. (questioned)
Anu aginome wazi kasi ti hira ti ususo umei tigebe sa ta imbizino, uni siziki me mani sa upebu uzuro. We wani a'inko barki mare mabibit magino me. (questioned)
18 By boasting proudly as they make speeches that are worthless, they entice people who have recently [become believers and] have stopped doing the things that wicked people do. Urged on by their self-directed nature, they entice them [into sin] by encouraging them to [do] evil things.
Wa boo sarki nice anu zatu ace nan uhurse inyimo me.
19 [The false teachers] tell people that they are free [to do whatever they want to do, even though] they themselves are [like] slaves [MET] [because their own self-directed nature forces them to do] sinful things. [Think about these well-known words: “Whenever a person is controlled by something] {[something controls a person]}, [it is as though] that person has become a slave of what controls him.”
Wa bezizi we gusi anu kadure anu aticukum tirunta da waku zi anime ba, barki weana re inama ya anu wani, barki unu urere mani ahira desa ma ranga me.
20 Those [who teach false truths] learned about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As a result, they stopped doing those things that (defile [people/cause people to become impure]) [spiritually]. Since they have begun to do [those evil things again], with the result that they are unable to stop doing them, they are in a worse condition than [they were in before they knew Jesus Christ].
Ingi aguna wa wa suburka madini m, u unee barki usuro urusa uyeso uru, yeso unubura uru, ingi wa kuri wa kuro anyimo amdini magino me, ticukum ti ana me ti teki ta aje me unu zenzeng.
21 [Because God will severely punish them], it would have been better for them if they had never known what it means to live in a righteous way. It is too bad that although they knew [how to live in a righteous way], they stopped doing the things that God commanded people to do, the things that [were] taught to them ([by us apostles/by Christ]) {that ([we apostles/Christ]) taught to them}.
Sarki daki wamu donkino ticukum ti runta datti ba, ida teki we sa wa rusan in tini wadi ku gamirka wa ceki utarsa utize tiginome tilau.
22 [The way they are behaving again] is just like (the proverbs/what people often say): [They are like] dogs that return to [eat] their vomit, and [they are like] pigs that have been washed and then roll [again] in the mud.
Kadure kani ugamirka utize wa gunna agi”boci ba ree tiwija ti meme, biladu sa azoro bini ba kuro bi zinu uhingirzino abijamirka”.
