2 Peter 3
1 This is now, beloved, the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them I stir up your sincere mind by reminding you
Osiepena mageno, maa koro en barupa mar ariyo ma andikonu. Asendikonugi giduto kargi ariyo mondo aparnu kendo achiew pachu obed moyawore.
2 that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets and the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Saviour,
Adwaro ni mondo upar weche mane jonabi maler okoro chon kod chik mane omiu koa kuom Ruodhwa kendo Jawarwa kokadho kuom joote magu.
3 knowing this first, that in the last days mockers will come, walking after their own lusts
Mokwongo nyaka ungʼe ni e ndalo mogik jomoko machayo ji nobi ka gichayou kendo ka giluwo gombogi maricho.
4 and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
Ka gipenjou niya “Ruodhu mane osingore ni onego bed ni duogono to ere? Donge nyaka ne kwerewa tho gik moko osebedo mana machalre nyaka aa chakruok chwech piny!”
5 For they wilfully forget that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water by the word of God,
To jogi wigi wil mar oyiem ni chon gi lala wach Nyasaye nomiyo polo obedo kendo piny ne ochwe koa kuom pi kendo pi ema nochweyego.
6 by which means the world that existed then, being overflowed with water, perished.
Kendo pigno nolokore ataro ma Nyasaye nokethego piny machon.
7 But the heavens that exist now and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgement and destruction of ungodly men.
Kuom wach nogo ema omiyo polo gi piny masani okan ni mach. Okan-gi nyaka chop odiechiengʼno ma joma ochayo Nyasaye nongʼadnigi bura mi notiekgi chuth.
8 But don’t forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
To wiu kik wil gi gimoro achielni osiepena mageno: Ni kuom Ruoth odiechiengʼ achiel chalre gi higni alufu achiel, kendo higni alufu achiel chalre gi odiechiengʼ achiel.
9 The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that anyone should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Ruoth ok odeko kuom chopo singruokne, kaka jomoko paro. Un ema oweyonu thuolo mondo ulokru, nikech ohore mos ka odwaro ni kik ngʼato lal kata achiel, to odwaro mondo ji duto olokre owe richogi.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat; and the earth and the works that are in it will be burnt up.
To odiechieng Ruoth nobi apoya mana kaka jakuo. Polo noleny nono ka mor matek kendo gik mochwe manie kor polo nowangʼ mi keth chuth, to piny gi gik moko duto manie iye nolal nono.
11 Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Ka gigi duto ibiro kethi kamano, koro to onego ubed jomachal nadi? Onego udag e ngima maler kendo moluoro Nyasaye,
12 looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
ka urito odiechiengʼ mar Nyasaye, kendo ka utemo beru mondo ochop piyo. Odiechiengʼno polo nowangʼ mi nokethe, kendo chwech mag polo noleny kawangʼ.
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
Wan to warito gik ma Nyasaye osesingonwa, ma en polo manyien gi piny manyien, kama timbe makare ema noyudre.
14 Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.
Emomiyo, osiepena mageno, ka pod urito odiechiengʼno to temuru matek kaka unyalo mondo ubed jomaler maonge ketho e nyim Nyasaye, kendo beduru gi kwe kode.
15 Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,
Beduru kungʼeyo ni deko mar Ruodhwa oweyo mana thuolo mar yudo warruok, mana kaka Paulo owadwa mwageno bende osendikonu gi rieko mane Nyasaye omiye.
16 as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
Barupenego duto ondiko machalre, kowuoyo kuom wechegi. Barupene otingʼo weche moko ma tiendgi tek ma joma kia kaachiel gi jo-hubagabaga gwenyo, mana kaka gigwenyo Ndiko mamoko bende, to timgino biro kelonegi chandruok.
17 You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
Emomiyo, osiepena mageno, kaka koro usengʼeyo wachni, ritreuru mondo kik ywau gi kethruok mag jomaricho mi ulwar ua kama ber muchungʼie.
The World is Destroyed by Water
