2 Petelo 3
1 Itungili, kuukilisilya uwe, mulowa ili ibada nila kabiili iti ku ukimbukiilya mu mahala,
This is now, beloved, the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them I stir up your sincere mind by reminding you
2 iti kina uhume kukimbukiilya makani nai aligitigwe ze ikili ni anya kidagu ni kutula ilagiilyo nila Mukulu witu hangi muguni ku kutumila i itumi.
that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets and the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior,
3 Ulinge iti ng'wandyo, kina ia hugi aziiza mu mahiku a mpelo; kumuhuga unyenye, aze alongolekile iniganiie nu ulowa nu ao.
knowing this first, that in the last days mockers will come, walking after their own lusts
4 Hangi azeligitya, “Likoli pii ilago ni la kusuka? aTata itu ai akule, kuiti intu yihi ai ituile uu puma ng'wandyo nua u umbwaa.
and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
5 Akitendisa kiwa kina ihi ni ilunde aiyandilye kupumiila ni mazi ikali nia kali, ku ikani ni lang'wa Itunda,
For they willfully forget that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water by the word of God,
6 ni kina kukiila lukani ni mazi akatula unkumbigulu ku mahiku nanso, Ize ituile izue mazi ai ibepigwe.
by which means the world that existed then, being overflowed with water, perished.
7 Kuiti itungili ilunde ni ihi i ekilwe ku lukani lulo luulo kunsoko a moto. IIekilwe kunsoko a luhiku nula ulamulwa nu ulimiligwa nua antu ni shanga ang'wa Itunda.
But the heavens that exist now and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
8 Iki shanga kihumile kuhuga utung'waa nuako, alowa, kina luhuku lung'wi ku mukulu ingi anga i miaka magana anzogu ling'wi, Ni miaka magana a nzogu ling'wi ingi anga luhiku lung'wi.
But don’t forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 Shanga kina Mukulu witumaa ku uembeelu kupikiilya ilagiilyo, anga ni isigiiwe kutula. Kuiti nuanso ingi mugimya kunsoko anyu, nuanso u, mugila nsula ga nung'wi walimile, Kuiti ukete nsula kupumya itungo iti ihi alije kila itunu.
The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that anyone should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 Anga itule, luhiku nula Mukulu lukupembya anga umii, ilunde likakila ku kukuta ung'wano. Iintu yukulimiligwa ku moto. Ihi ni intu ni imoli ikukunukulwa ng'walyi.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat; and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
11 Kunsoko i intuihi yukulimiligwa ku nzila yiyi. Itii ukutula muntu nua mpyani kii? Wikie ki elu nu likalo nu ki itunda.
Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
12 Ikuloeigwe kulinga nu kumanya upepeele u upembyi nua luhiku nualang'wa Itunda. Luhiku nulanso ilunde likalimiligwa ku moto, Ni intu yuku huluganigwa mu upyu utaki.
looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
13 Kuiti kupembelya ni ilago ni lakwe, kulindiie ilunde igeni ni ihi ngeni naiza anya tai ane akikie.
But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
14 Uugwa alowa kunsoko kusumbiiye intu izi, kagupa kutula wimukendegeeli nu kuhita kusokigwa nu kutula nu ulyuuku palung'wi nu ng'wenso.
Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.
15 Hangi komaniiilya u ugimya nua Mukulu witu mu ugunwa, anga mulowa heu itu uPaulo, nai umukilisiiye unyenye, kupembelya nu ukulu niiza ai winkeeigwe.
Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,
16 uPauo ukuganula aya ihi mu ma bada akwe, akoli maintu nize makaku kumalinga, Antu niagila nu upolo nu ukomu aibipilye i intu nianso Ni anga niakituma ku ukilisigwa, kutunga ulimiligwa nuao.
as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
17 Iti gwa, alowa kunsoko mulingile nanso. Isunji akola iti kina muleke kulimiligwa nu ukongelwa nua uteele nu kulimilya u uhuiili.
You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
The World is Destroyed by Water
