2 Petro 2
1 Avanyamalago avavwudesi avaehominche khu vanya Israeli, na avamanyisi ava vwudesi yavikhwinche khulyomwe. Khuvwutitu yavigega uvwumasiyisyo lwa vwudesi pwu vikhombelaga umpoki yuywa avagolile. Vihegegelaga uvwuvivi vwa mbeve khuvene.
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 Vingi yavikongaga injela inche vene inchinya soni, pwu uhugendela avene vihoyebedago enjela ya lweli.
Many will follow in their depravity, and because of them the way of truth will be defamed.
3 Khu wimi vihovohaga avanu khu mamenyu aga vwudesi, uvwuhegi wa vene savuhalendele, uvuvuvivi yavuhovakonga.
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 Ulwa khuva uNguluve saavalekhe avasuhwa avapalahani, avataginie pasi pa kelonga pwu wakongiwe emilegehe gya kyoma vwuvigulila uvwohigi vwuvijele. (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 U Nguluve saa eyomelenchene khelunga kya hatale. UNguluve amfihile u Nuhu unyalwedemo lwa yelweli, paninie na avange saba, unsekhe upualekhelile ulwongomencho pa khilunga avagalwikhe.
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 UNguluve agehegile Sodoma ne Gomora gekhafikhela ukhuva lyela nu hunangekha pwu geve khwani khu voni avanyanogwa khumajuva aga khovolongolo.
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 Vwu avombile elyo ampokhile u Lutu umunu va yelweli, ale nu lususuvalo na vavo savikonga indagelo incha Nguluve.
and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless
8 Ulwa khuva uywa umunu va yelweli uveatamaga navo amajuva goni nu khuyegatancha enumbula ya mwene hu gago agapulikhe nu khugalola.
(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 Ulwa khuva untwa alomanyile umwakhovapokha avanu va mwene imisekhe gya ukhugatanchiwa nu khuvalolela avatula nogwa nu ukhugulila uvwuhegi uvwa sikhu njoni.
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 Uvwu vuvu wa yelweli khu vavo vipitama mu vuwnogwe wa mbili ugu nu mhuvwubeda uvwutwa. Avanu ndava valenuvwukifu mu numbula inchavene, savidwada ukhuvabeda avavalanche.
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 Ulwa khuva avasung'wa vale na uludeva ne amakha ukhulutelela khu vanu, saviwesya hugega uvuhegi wa nogwa pa ntwa.
Yet not even angels, though greater in strength and power, dare to bring such slanderous charges against them before the Lord.
12 Ulwa khuva ifikhenu iyi filivovole ulahala fipeliwe fibatiwagwe nu ukhuyajwa. Vilemanchiwa khu mahombo agavene.
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 Emusi yoni vitama mu mbivi, wadegile uvulaminu uvutula nongwa, vihovokhela imbivi incha vwudesi vovihovokha nuve.
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 Amikho ga vene gagubekhiwe nu uvwuligu, savikwela ukhuvomba imbivi, vikhovasyova nu khuvagwisya avampelela avadebe mu mbivi. Vwale ni numbula inchidegile uvanogwe, avana avakotoliwe.
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 Vayelekhile enjela ya lweli vayagilwe vayekongile enjeli iya Balaam umwana va Beori, uve angilwe ukhukava amahombo ga volyasi.
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 Ulwa khuva abenchiwe khu uvwuvivi wa mwene. Eligodowe ilisalinchova lya nchovile ndi menyu lwa munu, asigile ulukwale lwa nyamalago.
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 Avanu ava vale nduhedwidui inchilivovole amagaasi. Nda mafunde agiyanchanwa ne mepo. Elifunde elinchitu levehiwe kwa ajili ya vene. (questioned)
These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.
18 Inchova khulwiginio lwene ikhovaguesya avanu hu vonogwe wa mbele.
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 Huvasyova avanu avinogwa ukhuvanyila vwala avitama nu uvwutula nogwa. Ikhovavola avanu uvudehe khunu avene vatula nogwa nu uvwulyasi. Ulwa khuva umunu ivehiwa ukhuva insuhiwa nola uviihondongoncha.
They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves to depravity. For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.
20 Umwe uveipaga uvwvivi wa kilunga khuvombela uluhala lwa nkulndeva vetu Yesu Klisite, ivuya ikirivokila uvolami, uvwu lami mwene uviva vuvivi ukhulutela uvutachi.
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 Yehanogiwagwa avanu avo wasite ukhuyemanya enjela iya wayelweli, huba wale kalekhe uhulumanya ululagilo uluvalanche uluvapevilwe.
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 Ihechago che hiva nelweli hu vene. “Embwa yihilivo khela amadesi gha yene, nengube eyeonchiwe yikiliwohela amadope.”
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.”
