2 Peter 3
1 Beloved, this is now the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them they are reminders to stir up your sincere mind,
Ulu ni huhosimbila uve vigane ekalata yavile ili uhu kamelesia katiha uluhala,
2 so that you will recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command of our Lord and Savior given through your apostles.
ili uweswe uhukomboha amamenyu agajoviwe kabula unya malago uKlisite nuhuhusu indagelo cha upohi vito uvihu tupoha uvitumela avakongi.
3 Know this first, that mockers will come in the last days. They will mock and proceed according to their own desires.
Uwelewe huwanjo uhuta avitulanongwa kihwicha hu sihu icha humwisio uhuva changanya yumwe vu viluta ni amli cha vene.
4 They will say, “Where is the promise of his return? From when our fathers fell asleep, all things have stayed the same, since the beginning of creation.”
Nichova uhuta yele ndahu uludehano ulwa huki livuha dada veto vafuile lakini ifinu ivi vyahumile huwanja uhwavumbile.
5 They willfully forget that the heavens and the earth came to exist out of water and through water, long ago, by God's command,
Vahefanya uhusamwe ihelunga vihumine na magasi nuhugendela amagasiga hatale hulimenyu ilwa Nguluve,
6 and that through these things, the world of that time was destroyed, being flooded with water.
uhusendela mlimenyu ilia mwene nama gasi gavaha kilonga huhepindi ihwo hagaviwe amagasi heha nangeha.
7 But now the heavens and the earth are reserved for fire by that same command. They are reserved for the day of judgment and the destruction of the ungodly people.
Ululeno hukianya napasi kutonjiwe hulimenye lelelwo ilwa moto levehiwe hwa ajili ya yahuhegiwe uhwongomela awanu avalevuvule uNguluve.
8 It should not escape your notice, beloved, that one day with the Lord is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day.
Sayiweswa uhunanga elimenyu iliaho husihu yemo hwanguluke ni kama miaha mia moja elfu moja ni kama sihu yemo.
9 The Lord does not move slowly concerning his promises, as some consider slowness to be. Instead, he is patient toward you. He does not desire for any of you to perish, but for everyone to make room for repentance.
Sio khuva uNguluve ivomba mlamola uhutimeswa ulu dehano kama umyihweleveha umwene mwaminifu hwa ajili yenyo umwene sinogwa ihungomela lakini ihumia usehe ili uhwe pala imbivi.
10 However, the day of the Lord will come as a thief: The heavens will pass away with a loud noise. The elements will be burned with fire, and the earth and the deeds in it will be revealed.
Inave, isihu ya Nguluve yifiha yiva kama undiasi ehelunga hela genda hwa huchova ekelele ifinu vilanangeha no mwoto. Ihelonga hwini helava mbuvalafu.
11 Since all these things will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people should you be? You should live holy and godly lives.
Uhuva ifinu vyoni nangeha hunjela eye. Je ulava mnu vani utame he Klisite na emitamelo gwa he Nguluve.
12 You should expect and hasten the coming of the day of God. On that day, the heavens will be destroyed by fire, and the elements will be melted in great heat.
Yinogwa uhelewa halaga uhwicha hwa Nguluve isihu eyo ehelunga helanangeha nu moto nifinu vilayeyoha no moto.
13 But according to his promise, we are waiting for the new heavens and the new earth, where righteousness will dwell.
Uhuhumana ne ahadi ya mwene tugojela ehelunga ehepya ambamo avenya lweli vitama.
14 Therefore, beloved, since you expect these things, do your best to be found spotless and blameless before him, in peace.
Leno vagane tutegemela ifinu ifi etange sana uhusita uhulalameha nuhuva ne amani nave.
15 Also, consider the patience of our Lord to be salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom that was given to him.
Ni fata ukwe yomelecha hwa Nguluve katika uhwohwolewa kama vagane va Paulo, avasimbile umwe uhuhumana nuhwedeha ambayo ahapohilwe.
16 Paul speaks of these things in all his letters, in which there are things that are difficult to understand. Ignorant and unstable men distort these things, as they also do the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
UPaulo alihujovela ago goni mkalata iya mwene hule finu ifi gumu uhuvyelewa avanu vava vakosiche eadabu na uvuimala vafinangile ifinu ivyo numvivombela uhusimba huhwa huhwelekea uhwongomela hwavene.
17 Therefore, beloved, since you know about these things beforehand, guard yourselves so that you are not led astray by the deceit of lawless people and you lose your own faithfulness.
Hivyo vagane uhuva mlumanyile ago lolelanaga ili msite uhuyagwa edeme mwevena ili msite uhuyagwa nuvudesi uwavapohaji nu huvayacha uwe lweli.
The World is Destroyed by Water
