2 Athesalonike 2

1 Atĩrĩrĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ha ũhoro wa gũcooka kwa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ na gũcookanĩrĩrio gwitũ harĩ we, nĩtũkũmũthaitha,

Talking about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and how we're brought together to him, brother and sisters—

2 atĩ mũtikahiũhe kwenyenyio kana mũhahũrwo nĩ ũrathi mũna, kana ndũmĩrĩri, o na kana marũa merĩtwo atĩ moimĩte kũrĩ ithuĩ, makoiga atĩ mũthenya wa Mwathani nĩũrĩkĩtie gũkinya.

please don't become upset or concerned by any spiritual revelation, or message, or letter supposedly from us that makes you think that the day of the Lord has already come.

3 Mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ amũheenie o na atĩa, nĩgũkorwo mũthenya ũcio ndũgaakinya, ũhoro wa kũregana na watho ũtakinyĩte, o nake mũndũ ũrĩa mũregi watho ataguũranĩirio, o ũcio ũtuĩrĩirwo ciira wa kwanangwo.

Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, because the Rebellion must come first, and the lawless man be revealed, the one whose end is destruction.

4 Nĩagokĩrĩra na etũũgĩrie igũrũ rĩa kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩĩtanĩtio na Ngai na kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩhooyagwo, nĩgeetha aikare thĩ kũu thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Ngai, agĩĩtuuaga atĩ we mwene nĩ Ngai.

He is the enemy of God, and proudly sets himself up over everything that is called God and is worshiped. He even installs himself in God's Temple, claiming to be God.

5 Kaĩ mũtararirikana atĩ rĩrĩa ndarĩ hamwe na inyuĩ nĩndamwĩraga maũndũ macio?

Don't you remember that I told you all this while I was still with you?

6 Na rĩu nĩmũũĩ kĩrĩa kĩgirĩtie mũndũ ũcio ooke na nĩgeetha akaaguũranĩrio ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire.

Now you know what's keeping him in check, because he will be revealed for what he is at the appropriate time.

7 Nĩgũkorwo ũhoro wa hitho wa kũregana na watho nĩũraruta wĩra; no nĩ kũrĩ ũrĩa ũgirĩrĩirie ũhoro ũcio woneke rĩu, na egũthiĩ na mbere gwĩka ũguo nginya rĩrĩa akeeherio.

For the secret ways of lawlessness are already at work; however he who now restrains it will continue to do so until he is out of the way.

8 Na hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo mũndũ ũcio mũregi watho akaaguũranĩrio. Mũndũ ũcio nĩwe Mwathani Jesũ akooraga na mĩhũmũ ya kanua gake, na amwanange na riiri wake ũrĩa ũkoonanio nĩ gũcooka gwake.

Then the lawless one will be revealed, the one whom the Lord Jesus will wipe out, blowing him away, destroying him by the brilliance of his coming.

9 Mũndũ ũcio mũregi watho nĩagooka kũringana na wĩra wa Shaitani ũrĩa wonekaga thĩinĩ wa mĩthemba yothe ya ciama cia maheeni, na marũũri, na morirũ,

He (the lawless one) comes to do Satan's work, having all kinds of powers, using miracles, and performing amazing but deceptive displays.

10 o na ooke na mĩthemba yothe ya ũmaramari nĩguo aheenie andũ arĩa marĩ njĩra ya kũũra. Moraga tondũ nĩmaregire kwenda ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma nĩguo mahonokio.

Using every type of evil trick he deludes those who are on their way to destruction, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

11 Na tondũ ũcio Ngai nĩamarehagĩra ũndũ wa hinya wa kũmahĩtithia, nĩgeetha metĩkie maheeni macio,

Because of this God sends them a convincing delusion so that they put their trust in the lie.

12 na nĩgeetha andũ othe matuĩrwo ciira arĩa matetĩkĩtie ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma na makenagĩra maũndũ ma waganu.

As a result everyone who did not trust in the truth will be condemned, for they preferred what is evil.

13 No rĩrĩ, twagĩrĩirwo nĩgũcookagĩria Ngai ngaatho hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ ũndũ wanyu, inyuĩ ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ mwendetwo nĩ Mwathani, tondũ kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria Ngai nĩamũthuurire mũhonokio nĩ ũndũ wa gũtherio nĩ Roho o na gwĩtĩkia ũhoro-ũrĩa-wa-ma.

But we just have to keep on thanking God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you to be saved through the Spirit who makes you right as you trust in the truth.

14 Aamwĩtĩire ũhoro ũyũ nĩ ũndũ wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega ũrĩa twamũhunjĩirie nĩguo mũgĩe na riiri wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ.

This is what he called you to through the good news we shared with you, so that you could participate in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, mwĩhaandei wega na mũrũmie ũrutani ũrĩa twamũrutire, o na akorwo twaririe na kanua kana tũkĩmwandĩkĩra marũa.

So, brothers and sisters, stand firm, and hold on to what you've been taught, whether by what you were told, or through a letter from us.

16 Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ we mwene, o na Ngai Ithe witũ ũrĩa watwendire na agĩtũhe ũũmĩrĩru wa nginya tene na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩega na ũndũ wa Wega wake-rĩ, (aiōnios g166)

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God the Father (who through his grace gave us eternal confidence and a trustworthy hope), (aiōnios g166)

17 maroomĩrĩria ngoro cianyu, na mamwĩkĩre hinya thĩinĩ wa ciĩko o na ciugo ciothe njega.

encourage you and strengthen you so you can say and do everything that is good.
