< 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].
Dalahulun, hambu atahori Israꞌel ruma rae, sira dadꞌi Lamatualain mana ola-olan. Tao-tao te ara peko-lelekoꞌ. Dei fo hei o mindaa mo atahori onaꞌ naa ra sia taladꞌa mara boe. Huu hambu atahori ruma rae, sira ranori soꞌal Lamatuaꞌ, te ara peko-lelekoꞌ. Ara ranori raꞌafuniꞌ dudꞌuꞌa deꞌulaka nara. Naa de ara bisa ranori rala sira nenorin mana sora-senggoꞌ ra. Mete ma hei tao rerenaꞌ neu nanori nara, na, dei fo hei mimbilutu. Ara rafanii rae, Lamatuaꞌ Yesus naa, nda sira lamatuan sa. Tao-tao te, Ana tefa-soi nala se no felin seli. Huu tatao nara taꞌo naa, de nda dooꞌ sa te rambalutu.
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).
Mae taꞌo naa o, dei fo atahori hetar tungga se, ma sudꞌiꞌ a tao leli nda rahine mamaet sa. Dei fo atahori olaꞌ nda maloleꞌ sa soꞌal nenori matetuꞌ a, huu sira tatao-nonoꞌi nara naa ra.
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]!
Meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra, mana bare-naꞌo ra. Ara eꞌedik mataꞌ-mataꞌ fo tipu-laka rala doi mara. Te afiꞌ liliiꞌ, huu Lamatualain dadꞌi Mana Maꞌetuꞌ Dedꞌeat nda parna sungguꞌ sa. Mia dalahulun, Ana sadꞌia fo huku-doki se. Dei fo ara rambalulutu.
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 )
Conto onaꞌ, dalahulun, Lamatuaꞌ ate nara ruma sia sorga tao salaꞌ. Te Lamatuaꞌ dadꞌi Mana Maꞌetuꞌ Dedꞌeat nda mboꞌi se sa. Ana nggari se naraka rala reu, ma ena nala se sia ndola maꞌahatuꞌ a rala. Ara rahani sia mamanaꞌ naa losa fain fo reu rataa mbali E. (Tartaroō )
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].
Onaꞌ naa boe no atahori lele uluꞌ ra. Leleꞌ naa, ara rasodꞌa taoꞌ a deꞌulakaꞌ, ma nda tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa. Te Lamatuaꞌ nauli de atahori rala ndoos na esa, naran Noh, natudꞌu dalaꞌ fo atahori bisa rasodꞌa matetuꞌ. Te ara nda nau rena e sa boe. Naeni de Lamatuaꞌ naꞌondaꞌ oe mandali monaeꞌ a tao nalutu atahori nda mana tao-afiꞌ neu E sa. Te Ana tao nasodꞌa Noh no sao ana nara. Basa se atahori falu.
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).
Leleꞌ esa fai, maꞌahulun atahori mia kota Sodꞌom no kota Gomora ra rasodꞌa tao deꞌulaka manaseliꞌ. De Lamatualain hukun se. Ana hotu hendi basa sudꞌiꞌ a saa mana sia naa ra losa dadꞌi reu afu. Ma, basa atahori mana sia naa ra mate. Naa dadꞌi conto fee neu atahori laen mana nauꞌ a tao deꞌulakaꞌ ma nda tao afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa. Ara rahine memaꞌ sira uanale nara, mete ma ara nda nau doaꞌ sa.
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.
Te leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori esa, naran Lot, nasodꞌa tunggaꞌ a ndoon. Ana bengge noꞌ a atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra tatao mana maꞌalelena nara, mana nda nau rena neu Lamatuaꞌ sa. Basa de, Lamatua tao nasodꞌa Lot mia naa.
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.
Lot mesaꞌ ne hiiꞌ a tao matetuꞌ ra, te ana leo sia atahori Sodꞌom ra taladꞌa nara. Boe ma, tungga-tungga fai na ana nita no rena ara ralena-langga neu Lamatuaꞌ Hohoro-lalane nara. Naa tao fee ralan susa.
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.
Basa conto naa ra ratudꞌu oi, Lamatualain nahine fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori mana hiiꞌ a rena Eni, mia sosobꞌaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Ana o nahine naꞌetuꞌ huku-doki mamaberaꞌ neu atahori mana nasodꞌa noꞌ a sora-senggoꞌ ra. Boe ma Ana tao taꞌo naa nakandooꞌ a losa fain dei fo Ana naꞌetuꞌ basa atahori ra dedꞌean.
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]).
Huku-dokiꞌ mamaberaꞌ naa, tudꞌa lelenan neu atahori mana hiiꞌ a rasodꞌa no manggenggeoꞌ tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau nara. Ara nda nau rena atahori esa sa boe, ma ara raneneut basa mana toꞌu koasa ra. Dei fo Lamatuaꞌ hukun se. Boe ma, meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra, rambarani seli, ma koao. Ara nda nau ratudꞌu hadꞌa-hormat, ma nda ramatau olaꞌ raꞌamuti Lamatualain no ate nara mana sia sorga.
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].
Tao-tao te, ate mana sia sorga ra maꞌadereꞌ lena meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra. Mae taꞌo naa o, ate naa ra nda ola raꞌamuti meser naa ra sia sira Lamatuan matan sa. Ma ara o nda fua salaꞌ leli neu meser naa ra sa.
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}.
Te meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra hiiꞌ a olaꞌ raꞌamuti soꞌal dala-dalaꞌ fo sira o nda rahine sa boe. Huu ara onaꞌ a banda nda mana dudꞌuꞌa nahine sa! Malole lenaꞌ, toꞌu mala se fo tao milulutu se! Te uanale nara taꞌo naa. Tantu rambalutu, huu tatao-nonoꞌi nara.
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].
Ara tao sususaꞌ naeꞌ neu atahori ra. Dei fo Lamatuaꞌ o tao sususaꞌ naeꞌ neu se boe, huu tatao-nonoꞌi nda matetu nara sa. Ara hiiꞌ a feta-dote no koaꞌ-kee. Ara o hiiꞌ a tao sora-senggoꞌ sia fai rereloꞌ, naa fo basa atahori bisa rita deꞌulaka nara. Ara nda rahine mamaet sa, ma tao ralutu hei nara malole mara. Mete ma ara raa fefetas raꞌabꞌue ro nggi, ara hii tao tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau deꞌulaka nara.
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].
Mata nara lendo neu inaꞌ mana nau tao salaꞌ ro se. Ara rasodꞌa tao deꞌulakaꞌ rakandooꞌ a. Ara hiiꞌ a sangga atahori fo nemeheren neu Lamatuaꞌ nda manggateeꞌ sa, ma fufudꞌi se fo tao tungga deꞌulakaꞌ. Ara akaꞌ sangga dalaꞌ fo bare-naꞌo rakandooꞌ a. Tantu Lamatuaꞌ huku-doki se!
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].
Dalahulun, meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra, atahori mana tungga dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a, te doodꞌoo ma ara laoꞌ sora-senggo. No taꞌo naa, ara onaꞌ Balaam dalahulun, naeni Bosor anan. Eni naa, Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-olan esa. Te ana hiiꞌ a sangga doiꞌ, naa de ana tao dala nda matetuꞌ ra sa. Lao esa, Balaam sae banda keledei. Keledei ra nda bisa ola-olaꞌ sa. Te leleꞌ naa Lamatuaꞌ tao banda keledei a olaꞌ onaꞌ atahori e! De banda keledei naa, ena-ai Balaam, huu tatao-nonoꞌi deꞌulakan. Banda keledei naa, nau fo ana naloeꞌ, naa fo ana sudꞌi boe tao sora-senggoꞌ ra fai, onaꞌ atahori muluꞌ e.
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.
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]. ()
Meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra onaꞌ oe mataꞌ esa nda ma ngguna saa sa boe, huu meti hendi ena. Ara o onaꞌ lume-masuꞌ nda ma ngguna saa sa boe, huu anin fuu hendi e. Lamatuaꞌ sadia hela mamana maꞌahatuꞌ esa fo ena se reu rala. ()
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.
Huu, ara olaꞌ naeꞌ, te nda maisiꞌ sa. Ara rae fufudꞌi atahori, fo tao tungga sira hohongge-bubꞌuni nara. Ara hiiꞌ a kokoe-nanasi atahori mana feꞌe lao baliꞌ risiꞌ dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a, fo tao seluꞌ salaꞌ fai.
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.”
Atahori mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra helu rae, “Mete ma hei rena neu hai, na, hei bisa tao tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau mara!” Te atahori mana olaꞌ taꞌo naa ra, onaꞌ ate mana nda bisa mboꞌi ao nara mia deꞌulakaꞌ ra sa. Huu atahori mana hela fee dalaꞌ sa nauli nala e, na, naa onaꞌ ana dadꞌi neu dalaꞌ naa aten ena.
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].
Mete ma nau nenemboꞌit mia deꞌulakaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ mana tao nanggenggeo nggita, na, musi tahine hita Lamatuan Yesus Kristus. Te mete ma hambu atahori dinggoꞌ hela E, fo reu raꞌabꞌue seluꞌ ro deꞌulaka onaꞌ dalahulun, na, naa onaꞌ dala deꞌulaka nauli se. Aleꞌ ia, ara boe hambu sosoeꞌ ena!
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}.
Mete ma ara rahine dala masodꞌaꞌ matetuꞌ a ena, te ara dinggo, ma nda tao tungga dala maloleꞌ ma meumareꞌ a sa ena, fo Lamatuaꞌ parenda neu nggita, na, naa nda maloleꞌ sa. Malole lenaꞌ ara nda parna rahine dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a sa.
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.
Hambu dedꞌea lasiꞌ dai meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra oi, “Mete ma busa muta, na ana neu dalo baliꞌ mutas na.” Hambu laen fai, mana oi, “Mae fafi sa neneneriuꞌ ena o, ana baliꞌ neu loli tane a fai.
