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
| ܗܕܐ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܚܒܝܒܝ ܐܓܪܬܐ ܕܬܪܬܝܢ ܟܬܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܗܝܢ ܡܥܝܪ ܐܢܐ ܒܥܘܗܕܢܐ ܠܪܥܝܢܟܘܢ ܫܦܝܐ |
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 Savior,
| ܕܬܬܥܗܕܘܢ ܠܡܠܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܐܬܐܡܪ ܡܢ ܢܒܝܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܠܦܘܩܕܢܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܘܦܪܘܩܢ ܕܒܝܕ ܫܠܝܚܐ |
3 knowing this first, that in the last days mockers will come, walking after their own lusts
| ܟܕ ܗܕܐ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܢܐܬܘܢ ܒܚܪܬܐ ܕܝܘܡܬܐ ܡܒܙܚܢܐ ܕܡܒܙܚܝܢ ܟܕ ܐܝܟ ܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ |
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.”
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܐܝܟܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܕܡܐܬܝܬܗ ܡܢ ܟܕ ܓܝܪ ܐܒܗܬܢ ܫܟܒܘ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܗܟܢܐ ܡܟܬܪ ܡܢ ܫܘܪܝܗ ܕܒܪܝܬܐ |
5 For they willfully forget that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water by the word of God,
| ܛܥܝܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܗܕܐ ܟܕ ܨܒܝܢ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܡܢ ܡܝܐ ܘܒܝܕ ܡܝܐ ܩܡܬ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ |
6 by which means the world that existed then, being overflowed with water, perished.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܕܗܝܕܝܢ ܛܦ ܒܡܝܐ ܘܐܒܕ |
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 judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
| ܫܡܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܗܫܐ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܐܤܝܢܝܢ ܟܕ ܠܢܘܪܐ ܡܬܢܛܪܝܢ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܕܝܢܐ ܘܕܐܒܕܢܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܪܫܝܥܐ |
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.
| ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܚܕܐ ܠܐ ܬܛܥܝܟܘܢ ܚܒܝܒܝ ܕܚܕ ܝܘܡܐ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܝܟ ܐܠܦ ܫܢܝܢ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܘܐܠܦ ܫܢܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܝܘܡܐ ܚܕ |
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.
| ܠܐ ܡܫܬܘܚܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܒܡܘܠܟܢܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܢܫܝܢ ܫܘܘܚܪܐ ܡܤܒܪܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܡܓܪ ܪܘܚܗ ܡܛܠܬܟܘܢ ܒܕܠܐ ܨܒܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܢܐܒܕ ܐܠܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܠܬܝܒܘܬܐ ܢܐܬܐ |
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 burned up.
| ܐܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܘܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܐܝܟ ܓܢܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܫܡܝܐ ܡܢ ܫܠܝ ܥܒܪܝܢ ܐܤܛܘܟܤܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܝܩܕܝܢ ܢܫܬܪܘܢ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܘܥܒܕܐ ܕܒܗ ܬܫܬܟܚ |
11 Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
| ܟܕ ܗܟܝܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܡܫܬܪܝܢ ܕܐܝܟ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܙܕܩ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܒܗܘܦܟܝܟܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܒܕܚܠܬ ܐܠܗܐ |
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?
| ܟܕ ܡܤܟܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܤܘܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܐܬܝܬܐ ܕܝܘܡܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܫܡܝܐ ܟܕ ܡܬܒܚܪܝܢ ܒܢܘܪܐ ܢܫܬܪܘܢ ܘܐܤܛܘܟܤܐ ܟܕ ܝܩܕܝܢ ܢܫܘܚܘܢ |
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
| ܠܫܡܝܐ ܕܝܢ ܚܕܬܐ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܘܠܟܢܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܡܤܟܝܢܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܗܘܢ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܥܡܪܐ |
14 Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܚܒܝܒܝ ܟܕ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܡܤܟܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܝܨܦܘ ܕܕܠܐ ܟܘܬܡܐ ܘܕܠܐ ܡܘܡܐ ܠܗ ܬܫܬܟܚܘܢ ܒܫܠܡܐ |
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,
| ܘܠܡܓܪܬ ܪܘܚܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܦܘܪܩܢܐ ܬܚܫܒܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܐܚܘܢ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܝܟ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܠܗ ܟܬܒ ܠܟܘܢ |
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.
| ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܒܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܓܪܬܗ ܡܠܠ ܒܗܝܢ ܥܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗܝܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܥܤܝܩ ܠܤܘܟܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܠܐ ܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܡܥܩܡܝܢ ܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܦ ܠܗܠܝܢ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܫܪܟܐ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܕܢܐ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ |
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.
| ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܚܒܝܒܝ ܟܕ ܩܕܡܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܛܪܘ ܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܕܕܠܡܐ ܟܕ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܬܪ ܛܥܝܘܬܐ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܠܐ ܢܡܘܤ ܐܢܘܢ ܬܦܠܘܢ ܡܢ ܤܡܟܐ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ |
The Great Flood
