2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour, Jesus Christ:
Simoni Petro, Mmanda na mtume wa Yesu Kristo, kwa balo baipokile imani yeyelo ya thamani kati twaipokile twenga, imani yaibile nkati ya haki ya Nnongo na mwokozi witu Yesu Kristo.
2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
Neema ibe kwinu, amani iyongeyekeye pitya maarifa ga Nnongo na Ngwana witu Yesu.
3 seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,
Pitya maarifa ga Nnongo tupatike makowe gake yote kwa ajili ya uchaji wa maisha. Boka kwa Nnongo ywatukemile kwa ajili ya uzuru wa utukufu wake.
4 by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
Kwa ndela yee atitutumanisha ahadi ngolo ya thamani. Apangite nyoo ili kutupanga barithi ba asili ya Nnongo, kwa kadiri tuyendelya kuuleka ubou wa dunia yee.
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
Kwa sababu yee, mupange bidii kuongeza uzuri kwa ndela ya imani yinu, kwa sababu ya uzuri, maarifa.
6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
Pitya maarifa, kiasi, pitya kiasi saburi, na pitya saburi utauwa.
7 and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
Pitya utuwa upendo wa alongo na pitya upendo wa alongo, upendo.
8 For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Mana makowe aga gabile nkati yinu, yayendelya kukua nkati yinu, bai mwenga mwapangika kwaa tasa au bandu babeleka kwaa matunda katika maarifa ga Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo.
9 For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
Lakini yeyote ywabile kwaa na makowe aga, ugabona makowe ga papipi kae; ywembe nga ipofu, atisahau utakaso ba sambi yake ya kale.
10 Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
Kwa eyo, alongo bango, mupange juhudi ili kujihakikishia uteule na wito kwa ajili yinu. Kati mugapanga aga, mwalowa kuikwaa.
11 For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Nga nyoo mwaipatia bingi ba nnango wa jingya katika upwalume wangayomoka wa Ngwana witu na nkochopoli Yesu Kristo. (aiōnios g166)
12 Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.
Kwa eyo nenga nalowa pangika tayari kuwakombokya makowe aga kila mara, hata kama mwayatanga, nambeambe mubile imara katika kweli.
13 I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,
Nawaza kuwa nibile sahihi kubaamsha na kuwakombokya nnani ya makowe aga, ningali nibile nkati ya hema lee.
14 knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
Kwa mana nitangite kuwa muda kwaa mrefu nalowa liondoa lihema lyango, kati Ngwana Yesu Kristo atubonekeya.
15 Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
Nalowa jitahidi kwa bidii kwa ajili yinu ili mkombokeye makowe aga baada ya nenga kuboka.
16 For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Kwa mana twenga twafata kwaa hadithi zatijingya kwa ustadi palo patulongela nnani ya ngupu na kujidhihirisha kwa Ngwana witu Yesu Kristo, ila twenga tubile mashahidi ba utukufu wake.
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Ywembe ywapokile utukufu na heshima boka kwa Nnongo tate palo lilobe liyowanike boka katika utukufu nkolo yatibaya.”Ayoo nga mwana wango, mpendwa wango ambaye ywatipendezwa niywembe.”
18 We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
Tuyowine lilobe lee iboka kumaunde palo tubile niywembe katika chelo kitombe kitakatifu.
19 We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts,
Tubile ni lee neno lya unabii lyalithibitike, ambalo kwa lee mwapanga vyema kuliteketeza. Kati taa ya'ing'ara mulibendo mpaka bwamba na ndondwa ga mawio zatibonekana katika mioyo yinu.
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
Mutangite aga panga, ntopo unabii wauandikilwe kwa sababu ya kuwaza mwabene kwa nabii mwene.
21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
Kwa mana ntopo unabii wabile kwa mapenzi ga bandu, ila bandu bapangilwe na Roho mtakatifu ywalongela boka kwa Nnongo.
