2 Bitrus 1
1 Siman Bitrus, bawa da manzon Almasihu Yesu, zuwa ga wadanda suka karbi bangaskiya mai daraja kamar yadda muka karba, bangaskiya cikin adalcin Allahnmu da Yesu Almasihu.
Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained equal faith with us in the justice of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Bari alheri ya kasance tare da ku; bari salama ta karu ta wurin sanin Allah da na Yesu Ubangijinmu.
Grace to you and peace be accomplished in the knowledge of God and of Christ Jesus our Lord:
3 Dukkan abubuwan ikon Allah na rayuwa da Allahntaka an bamu su ta wurin sanin Allah, wanda ya kira mu ta wurin daukakarsa da nagarta.
As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue.
4 Ta wurin wanan, ya bamu babban alkawari mai daraja. Yayi wanan ne saboda ku zama masu rabo cikin Allahntaka, yayin da ku ka kubuta daga lalacewa da ke cikin duniya saboda mugayen sha'awace sha, awace.
By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world.
5 Saboda wanan dalilin kuyi iyakacin kokarinku ku kara nagarta ta wurin bangaskiyarku, kuma ta wurin adalci, sani.
And you, employing all care, minister in your faith, virtue; and in virtue, knowledge;
6 Ta wurin sani ku kara da kamun kai, kuma ta wurin kamun kanku, ku kara da jimrewa, ta wurin jimrewarku, ku kara da bin Allah.
And in knowledge, abstinence; and in abstinence, patience; and in patience, godliness;
7 Ta wurin bin Allah, ku kara da kauna irin ta 'yan'uwa, ta wurin kauna irin ta 'yan'uwa, ku kara kauna.
And in godliness, love of brotherhood; and in love of brotherhood, charity.
8 Idan wadannan abubuwan suna cikinku, kuma suka yi girma a cikinku, baza a sami bakarare ko rashin 'ya'ya cikin sanin Ubangijinmu Yesu Almasihu ba.
For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Amma duk wanda ya rasa wadannan abubuwan yana kallon abin da ke kusa ne kawai; ya makance. Ya manta da cewa an wake shi daga tsofaffin zunubansa.
For he that hath not these things with him, is blind, and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Saboda haka, 'yan'uwa, kuyi iyakacin kokari ku tabbatar da kiranku da zabenku. Idan kun yi wadannan abubuwan, baza ku yi tuntube ba.
Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.
11 Ta haka zaku sami shiga cikin mulki na har'abada na Ubangijinmu da Maicetonmu Yesu Almasihu. (aiōnios g166)
For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Saboda haka a shirye nake kulayomi in tunashe ku game da wadannan abubuwan, ko da yake kun san su, kuma kun yi karfi cikin gaskiya yanzu.
For which cause I will begin to put you always in remembrance of these things: though indeed you know them, and are confirmed in the present truth.
13 Ina tunani daidai ne in zuga ku da tuni game da wadannan abubuwan, tun ina cikin wannan jiki.
But I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
14 Domin na sani jim kadan zan bar wannan jiki, kamar yadda Yesu Almasihu ya nuna mani.
Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me.
15 Zan yi iyakancin kokarina kulayomi domin ku rika tunawa da abubuwan, bayan kaurata.
And I will endeavour, that you frequently have after my decease, whereby you may keep a memory of these things.
16 Domin bamu bi labaru da aka kago na nuna wayo cikinsu ba, da muka fada maku game da iko da bayyanuwar Ubangijinmu Yesu Almasihu, amma mu shaidu ne na ikonsa.
For we have not by following artificial fables, made known to you the power, and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eyewitnesses of his greatness.
17 Gama ya karbi daukaka da daraja daga wurin Allah Uba lokacin da murya ta zo daga ikon mai daukaka cewa, “Wannan shine dana, kaunataccena, wanda nake jin dadinsa kwarai.”
For he received from God the Father, honour and glory: this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
18 Mun ji muryar nan da ta zo daga sama, lokacin da mu ke tare da shi a dutse mai tsarki.
And this voice we heard brought from heaven, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19 Muna da wannan kalmar annabci wanda akwai tabbaci sosai, kun yi daidai idan kun mayar da hankali a kansu. Yana nan kamar fitillar da take walkiya a wuri mai duhu kafin asubahi ya zo, kuma tauraron asubahi ya tashi cikin zukatanku.
And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
20 Ku san da wannan tun da farko, cewa babu annabci da ke bisa ga fasarar mutum.
Understanding this first, that no prophecy of scripture is made by private interpretation.
21 Domin babu annabcin da ya taba zuwa ta wurin nufin mutum. Maimakon haka, Ruhu Mai Tsarki ne ke iza su, su fadi maganar Allah.
For prophecy came not by the will of man at any time: but the holy men of God spoke, inspired by the Holy Ghost.
