2 Peter 1
1 Simeon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who did obtain 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 acknowledgement of God and of Jesus our Lord!
Neema ibe kwinu, amani iyongeyekeye pitya maarifa ga Nnongo na Ngwana witu Yesu.
3 As all things to us His divine power (the things pertaining unto life and piety) hath given, through the acknowledgement of him who did call us through glory and worthiness,
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 through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these ye may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires.
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 And this same also — all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith the worthiness, and in the worthiness the knowledge,
Kwa sababu yee, mupange bidii kuongeza uzuri kwa ndela ya imani yinu, kwa sababu ya uzuri, maarifa.
6 and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety,
Pitya maarifa, kiasi, pitya kiasi saburi, na pitya saburi utauwa.
7 and in the piety the brotherly kindness, and in the brotherly kindness the love;
Pitya utuwa upendo wa alongo na pitya upendo wa alongo, upendo.
8 for these things being to you and abounding, do make [you] neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging 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 with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of 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 wherefore, the rather, brethren, be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice, for these things doing, ye may never stumble,
Kwa eyo, alongo bango, mupange juhudi ili kujihakikishia uteule na wito kwa ajili yinu. Kati mugapanga aga, mwalowa kuikwaa.
11 for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign 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 Wherefore, I will not be careless always to remind you concerning these things, though, having known them, and having been 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 and I think right, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up in reminding [you],
Nawaza kuwa nibile sahihi kubaamsha na kuwakombokya nnani ya makowe aga, ningali nibile nkati ya hema lee.
14 having known that soon is the laying aside of my tabernacle, even as also our Lord Jesus Christ did shew to me,
Kwa mana nitangite kuwa muda kwaa mrefu nalowa liondoa lihema lyango, kati Ngwana Yesu Kristo atubonekeya.
15 and I will be diligent that also at every time ye have, after my outgoing, power to make to yourselves the remembrance of these things.
Nalowa jitahidi kwa bidii kwa ajili yinu ili mkombokeye makowe aga baada ya nenga kuboka.
16 For, skilfully devised fables not having followed out, we did make known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, but eye-witnesses having become 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 having received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being borne to him by the excellent glory: 'This is My Son — the beloved, in whom I was 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 and this voice we — we did hear, out of heaven borne, being with him in the holy mount.
Tuyowine lilobe lee iboka kumaunde palo tubile niywembe katika chelo kitombe kitakatifu.
19 And we have more firm the prophetic word, to which we do well giving heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till day may dawn, and a morning star may arise — 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 this first knowing, that no prophecy of the Writing doth come of private exposition,
Mutangite aga panga, ntopo unabii wauandikilwe kwa sababu ya kuwaza mwabene kwa nabii mwene.
21 for not by will of man did ever prophecy come, but by the Holy Spirit borne on holy men of God spake.
Kwa mana ntopo unabii wabile kwa mapenzi ga bandu, ila bandu bapangilwe na Roho mtakatifu ywalongela boka kwa Nnongo.
