< 2 Petero 2 >

1 No rĩrĩ, nĩ kwarĩ anabii a maheeni thĩinĩ wa andũ, o ta ũrĩa gũgaakorwo na arutani a maheeni thĩinĩ wanyu. Nao nĩmagatoonyia ũrutani wa maheeni wa gũthũkia andũ na waara, o na makaane Mwathani ũrĩa wamagũrire, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio, merehere kwanangwo kwa narua.
BUT there were false prophets in the world, as also among you there will be false teachers, they who introduce heresies of destruction, and, the Lord who bought them denying, bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 Andũ aingĩ nĩmakarũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre yao ya ũũra-thoni na matũme njĩra ĩrĩa ya ma ĩcambio.
And many will go after their wickedness; they, on account of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed.
3 Ningĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ũkoroku wao, arutani acio nĩmagetongagia na inyuĩ na kũmwĩraga ngʼano cia maheeni. Ituĩro rĩao rĩa ciira rĩtũire rĩmetereire, o na kwanangwo kwao gũtiikaraga ta gũkomete.
And with fraudulency of deceptive words will they make merchandise of you; they, whose judgment (denounced) before tarrieth not, and whose destruction doth not sleep.
4 Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, kuona atĩ Ngai ndaigana kũiguĩra araika arĩa mehirie tha, no nĩkũmaikia aamaikirie Jehanamu, akĩmohithia marima-inĩ ma nduma maikarage kuo metereire ituĩro-rĩ, (Tartaroō g5020)
For if Aloha upon the angels who sinned was not lenient, but in chains of darkness shut them in the deeps, and delivered them to be kept to the judgment of pain; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 ningĩ kuona atĩ ndaiguĩrĩire thĩ ya tene tha hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aarehire kĩguũ kĩa maaĩ kũrĩ andũ arĩa maatũũraga kuo matetĩkĩtie Ngai, no akĩgitĩra Nuhu, ũrĩa warĩ mũhunjia wa ũthingu na andũ angĩ mũgwanja;
and on the former world was not lenient, but Nuch, who was the eighth preacher of righteousness, he preserved, when the deluge came upon the world of the wicked;
6 na angĩkorwo nĩatuĩrĩire matũũra ma Sodomu na Gomora ciira na ũndũ wa kũmacina magĩtuĩka mũhu, na akĩmatua kĩonereria kĩa ũrĩa gũgaatuĩka kũrĩ andũ arĩa matetĩkĩtie Ngai;
the cities of Sadum and of Omuro he burned, and with overthrow condemned them, while an example to the wicked who should be he set them;
7 na angĩkorwo nĩahonokirie Loti, mũndũ warĩ mũthingu, na waiguithagio kĩeha nĩ mĩtũũrĩre ya ũũra-thoni ya andũ acio aaganu,
also Lut the righteous, who was bruised with the impure conversation of the lawless, he delivered;
8 (nĩgũkorwo mũndũ ũcio mũthingu, ũrĩa waikaranagia nao o mũthenya, nĩaiguithagio ruo ngoro-inĩ yake thingu nĩ ciĩko cia waganu iria oonaga na akaigua);
-for in sight and in hearing, while (that) just (man) dwelt among them, from day to day, his righteous soul by their lawless works was tortured; -
9 angĩkorwo ũguo nĩguo kũrĩ-rĩ, Mwathani nĩoĩ kũhonokia andũ arĩa meamũrĩire Ngai kuuma magerio-inĩ, na kũiga andũ arĩa matarĩ athingu nginya mũthenya wa ciira ũkinye, o akĩmaherithagia.
the Lord knoweth how to deliver from affliction them who fear him, but the evil unto the day of judgment to be tormented will he reserve.
10 Na makĩria harĩ andũ arĩa marũmagĩrĩra merirĩria mooru ma mwĩrĩ marĩa marĩ magigi na makanyarara wathani o wothe. Andũ acio nĩ ndũrĩka na nĩ etĩĩi na matiĩtigagĩra kũruma ciũmbe cia igũrũ iria irĩ riiri;
But most those who after the flesh follow the concupiscence of impurity, and of authority are contemptuous; daring and arrogant, (and) who by greatness are not moved while they blaspheme:
11 no rĩrĩ, o na gũtuĩka araika nĩ marĩ hinya na ũhoti makĩria, matirumaga ciũmbe icio magĩcithitangaga kũrĩ Mwathani.
whereas angels, who in power and strength are (so much) greater than they, bring not against them a judgment of blasphemy.
12 No andũ acio nĩmarumanaga maũndũ-inĩ marĩa matooĩ. Mahaana ta nyamũ itarĩ na meciiria, iria ciũmbĩtwo itarĩ na ũmenyo, na iciarĩtwo irĩ cia kũgwatio na kũniinwo, na o ta nyamũ-rĩ, o nao nĩ kũniinwo makaaniinwo.
But these, as the dumb animals, by nature (ordained) to the knife and to destruction, blaspheming what they know not, in their own destruction will be destroyed;
13 Nao nĩmakarĩhwo ũũru na ũũru kũringana na ũrĩa matũire mekaga. O monaga atĩ kũrĩĩo mũthenya barigici nĩkuo gwĩkenia. Andũ acio nĩ imeni na ũũgũ, rĩrĩa megwĩkenia maruga-inĩ mao ma ikeno hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mekũrĩanĩra na inyuĩ.
while they in whom is iniquity the wages of iniquity shall receive. They repute as pleasure the luxury which is in the day. Blemishes (are they), full of spots, who delighting in their refreshments are luxurious:
14 Marĩ na maitho maiyũrĩte ũtharia, na matitigaga kwĩhia; o maguucagĩrĩria andũ arĩa marĩ ngoro hũthũ; o nĩ njorua cia ũkoroku, na nĩ rũciaro rũrume!
having eyes full of adultery, and sins which cease not, alluring souls that are not established. An heart have they which is disciplined in covetousness; sons of malediction,
15 Nĩmatigĩte njĩra ĩrĩa nũngarũ makoora makarũmĩrĩra njĩra ya Balamu wa Beori, ũrĩa wendaga mũno mũcaara wa gwĩka ũũru.
who, forsaking the straight way, have erred, and gone in the way of Belam bar Beur, who the wages of iniquity loved. But he had reproof of his transgression;
16 No nĩakũũmirwo nĩ ndigiri, nyamũ ĩtaaragia, nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩka ũũru, ĩkĩaria na mũgambo wa mũndũ, na ĩkĩriĩra ũgũrũki wa mũnabii ũcio.
(for) the dumb ass which spake with the voice of man rebuked the madness of the prophet.
17 Andũ acio nĩ ithima itarĩ maaĩ, na nĩ ibii iria itwaragwo nĩ kĩhuhũkanio. Nao no nduma nene makĩria metereirio. (questioned)
These are wells without water, clouds driven from above, unto whom the blackness of darkness is reserved.
18 Nĩgũkorwo maaragia ndeto cia tũhũ na cia mwĩtĩĩo, makaguucagĩrĩria na merirĩria mao mooru ma mwĩrĩ o na ũũra-thoni andũ arĩa marethara moime thĩinĩ wa arĩa matũũraga mahĩtagia.
For while they speak scoffing words of vanity, they allure with impure desires of the flesh those who almost escaped from them who have their conversation in error.
19 Mameeragĩra gũkũũrwo ũkombo-inĩ, o rĩrĩa o ene marĩ ngombo cia ũhoro wa kũbutha, nĩgũkorwo mũndũ nĩ ngombo ya ũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũmwathaga.
And liberty to them they promise, while they (themselves) are the servants of corruption; for the thing by which a man is overcome, to that he is subject.
20 Mangĩkorwo nĩmetharĩte kuuma thĩinĩ wa maũndũ marĩa marĩ magigi ma gũkũ thĩ nĩ ũndũ wa kũmenyana na Mwathani na Mũhonokia witũ, Jesũ Kristũ na ningĩ macooke kuohanio na maũndũ na magatoorio nĩmo-rĩ, mũtũũrĩre wao wa marigĩrĩrio-inĩ ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mũũru gũkĩra wa kĩambĩrĩria.
For if they have escaped from the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, with those very things entangled they are again over-come, their end becomes worse than the beginning.
21 Nĩ kaba matangĩamenyete njĩra ya ũthingu, gũkĩra kũmĩmenya na magacooka kũhutatĩra watho ũrĩa mũtheru maatigĩirwo.
For it had been more tolerable for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, when they knew, to turn backward from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22 Ũhoro ũcio wao, nĩwonanĩtio nĩ wa ma nĩ thimo iria ciugaga atĩrĩ: “Ngui ĩcookagĩrĩra matahĩko mayo,” na, “Ngũrwe ya mũgoma yathambio ĩcookaga ĩgathiĩ kwĩgaragaria mũtondo-inĩ.”
But it hath happened to them according to the true proverb, that The dog hath turned unto his vomit; the sow which had washed into the wallow of the mire.
