2 Bitrus 2
1 Amma a dā akwai annabawan ƙarya a cikin mutane, kamar yadda za a sami malaman ƙarya a cikinku. A ɓoye za su shigar da karkataccen koyarwa mai hallaka, har ma su yi mūsun Ubangiji mai iko duka wanda ya saye su suna kawo wa kansu hallaka farat ɗaya.
Now there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2 Da yawa za su bi hanyoyinsu na rashin kunya su kuma sa a rena hanyar gaskiya.
Many will follow in their depravity, and because of them the way of truth will be defamed.
3 Cikin kwaɗayinsu waɗannan malaman ƙarya za su cuce ku da tatsuniyoyin da suka ƙaga. Hukuncinsu yana a rataye a kansu tun da daɗewa, hallakarsu kuma ba ta barci.
In their greed, these false teachers will exploit you with deceptive words. The longstanding verdict against them remains in force, and their destruction does not sleep.
4 Gama in har Allah bai ƙyale mala’iku sa’ad da suka yi zunubi ba, amma ya tura su cikin lahira, domin a tsare su don hukunci; (Tartaroō g5020)
For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them deep into hell, placing them in chains of darkness to be held for judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 in har bai ƙyale duniya ta dā ba sa’ad da ya kawo ambaliya a kan mutanenta marasa tsoron Allah, amma ya kiyaye Nuhu, mai wa’azin adalci, da kuma waɗansu bakwai;
if He did not spare the ancient world when He brought the flood on its ungodly people, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, among the eight;
6 in har ya hukunta biranen Sodom da Gomorra ta wurin ƙone su suka zama toka, ya kuma maishe su misali na abin da zai faru da marasa tsoron Allah;
if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction, reducing them to ashes as an example of what is coming on the ungodly;
7 in kuwa har ya ceci Lot, mai adalci, wanda ya damu ainun da ƙazamar rayuwar mutane marasa bin doka;
and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless
8 (adon kuwa abin da adalin nan ya yi, ya kuma gani, sa’ad da yake a cikinsu, sai kowace rana yakan ji ciwon aikinsu na kangara a zuciyarsa mai adalci)
(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)—
9 in haka ne, to, Ubangiji ya san yadda zai ceci mutane masu tsoron Allah daga gwaje-gwaje, yă kuma tsare marasa adalci don ranar hukunci, har yă zuwa ranar shari’a.
if all this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.
10 Wannan gaskiya ce musamman ga waɗanda suke bin sha’awace-sha’awacen lalaci na mutuntaka, suna kuma rena masu mulki. Da ƙarfin hali da kuma girman kai, waɗannan mutane ba sa tsoro kawo zargin ɓata sunan talikan sama;
Such punishment is specially reserved for those who indulge the corrupt desires of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and self-willed, they are unafraid to slander glorious beings.
11 duk da haka ko mala’iku ma da suka fi su ƙarfi suka kuma fi su iko, ba sa kawo irin wannan zargi na ɓata suna game da waɗannan talikai a gaban Ubangiji.
Yet not even angels, though greater in strength and power, dare to bring such slanderous charges against them before the Lord.
12 Amma waɗannan mutane suna yin saɓo a kan abubuwan da ba su fahimta ba. Suna kama da dabbobi marasa hankali, halittun da suke bin abin da jikinsu ya faɗa musu kawai, waɗanda aka haifa don a kama a hallaka, kuma kamar dabbobi su ma za su hallaka.
These men are like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be captured and destroyed. They blaspheme in matters they do not understand, and like such creatures, they too will be destroyed.
13 Za a yi musu sakamako da muguntar da suka yi. A ra’ayinsu jin daɗi shi ne a yi annashuwa da rana tsaka. Su ƙazamai ne marasa kunya, suna cike da jin daɗin sha’awace-sha’awacensu yayinda suke cin biki tare da ku.
The harm they will suffer is the wages of their wickedness. They consider it a pleasure to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deception as they feast with you.
14 Idanunsu sun cike da zina, ba sa ƙoshi da yin zunubi; suna jarrabtar waɗanda ba tsayayyu ba; gwanaye ne a kan kwaɗayi, la’anannun iri!
Their eyes are full of adultery; their desire for sin is never satisfied; they seduce the unstable. They are accursed children with hearts trained in greed.
15 Sun bar miƙaƙƙiyar hanya suka bauɗe suna bin hanyar Bala’am ɗan Beyor, wanda ya yi ƙaunar hakkin mugunta.
They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved the wages of wickedness.
16 Amma an tsawata masa saboda laifinsa ta wurin jaki, dabbar da ba ta magana, wadda ta yi magana da muryar mutum ta kuma kwaɓi haukan annabin.
But he was rebuked for his transgression by a donkey, otherwise without speech, that spoke with a man’s voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
17 Waɗannan mutane maɓulɓulai ne babu ruwa da kuma hazon da guguwar iska take kora. An shirya matsanancin duhu dominsu.
These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.
18 Gama suna surutai banza na girman kai, ta wurin son bin fasikanci na mutuntaka, sukan jan hankulan mutanen da suke kuɓucewa daga waɗancan masu zama cikin kuskure.
With lofty but empty words, they appeal to the sensual passions of the flesh and entice those who are just escaping from others who live in error.
19 Suna yin musu alkawarin’yanci, yayinda su kansu bayi ne ga aikin lalata gama mutum bawa ne ga duk abin da ya mallake shi.
They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves to depravity. For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.
20 In har sun kuɓuta daga lalacin duniya ta wurin sanin Ubangijinmu da kuma Mai Cetonmu Yesu Kiristi sai suka sāke koma a cikin lalacin, har ya rinjaye su, za su fi muni a ƙarshe fiye da farko.
If indeed they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, only to be entangled and overcome by it again, their final condition is worse than it was at first.
21 Zai fi musu kyau da ba su taɓa sanin hanyar adalci ba, fiye da a ce sun sani sa’an nan su juya bayansu ga umarni mai tsarkin nan da aka ba su.
It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than to have known it and then to turn away from the holy commandment passed on to them.
22 A kansu karin maganan nan gaskiya ce, “Kare ya koma kan amansa,” da kuma, “Alade da aka yi wa wanka, ya koma birgimarsa cikin laka.”
Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud.”
