2 Petro 1
1 Simoni Petro, unsungwa va vasikhewa va Yesu Klisite, khuvala avavalwedikhe olwedekho ulwa lutalama lulwa twapokhile ofwe, ulwedekho ululagati mu ilweli inchaa Nguluve nu mpokhi vetu uYesu Klisite.
Simon Peter, a bondservant and Apostle of Jesus Christ: To those to whom there has been allotted the same precious faith as that which is ours through the righteousness of our God and of our Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Uluhungu luve khulwumwe; ulwedekho ludenchiwage ukhugendela muruhara ulwa Nguluve numbaha veto uYesu.
May more and more grace and peace be granted to you in a full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Ukhugendela nduhara ulwa Nguluve tunchiwene embombo icnha mwene nchooni hutamaa, ukhukhuma khwa Nguluve unya vunonu nuvuvalanchee wa mwene.
seeing that His divine power has given us all things that are needful for life and godliness, through our knowledge of Him who has appealed to us by His own glorious perfections.
4 Khu njila iye aletuvehile indagelo ambaha inchalutalama. Atuvekhile ukhuvomba nukhukhara walevo uNguluve, inave vutwi khwendelela ukhu nchiilekha imbivi inchaa kherunga che.
It is by means of these that He has granted us His precious and wondrous promises, in order that through them you may, one and all, become sharers in the very nature of God, having completely escaped the corruption which exists in the world through earthly cravings.
5 Inave tweta, vombaga imbeve ukhwongelencha uruhara khu njila eyalwedekho lwenyo, inave uvunonu, nuruhara.
But for this very reason--adding, on your part, all earnestness-- along with your faith, manifest also a noble character: along with a noble character, knowledge;
6 Ukhugendela muruhara, padebe, nukhugendela pavudebe wa saburi, nuvudebe wa saburi, vuvalanche.
along with knowledge, self-control; along with self-control, power of endurance;
7 Ukhugendela mbuvalanche ulugano kwanyalokoro nukhu gendela ncugana lwa lukolo, lugano.
along with power of endurance, godliness; along with godliness, brotherly affection; and along with brotherly affection, love.
8 Inave embombo enchi nchiva munchiile igati indyumwe, gange ndelele ukhukula igati ndyumwe, tena omwe samuhave mwihola ama vanu avasavihola isekhe incha luhara incha umbaha vetu uYesu Klisite.
If these things exist in you, and continually increase, they prevent your being either idle or unfruitful in advancing towards a full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Ila vevoni uvale vuvule imbombo inchii, ikhunchivona imbombo incha bahapa; umwene sirola. Asamwile uvuvalanche wa mbivi incha mwene inchakhatale.
For the man in whom they are lacking is blind and cannot see distant objects, in that he has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his old sins.
10 Inave evo, valokolo lwango, vombaga ejuhudi ukwe vikhela ukhuchaguliwa nu khwekhumya khwa ajili yenyo. Enave muvomba aga, samukhagwe.
For this reason, brethren, be all the more in earnest to make sure that God has called you and chosen you; for it is certain that so long as you practise these things, you will never stumble.
11 Evo mukhepatela enjila eyakhwingelele khu ludeve ulwa sikhu nchooni ombaha veto nu mpokhi uYesu Klisiti. (aiōnios g166)
And so a triumphant admission into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will be freely granted to you. (aiōnios g166)
12 Une nele tayari uvakumbusya imbombo inchi khila sekhe, nda muve mulomanyile, leno muvile vononu isikhu nchooni.
For this reason I shall always persist in reminding you of these things, although you know them and are stedfast believers in truth which you already possess.
13 Visagela ukhuta nelevononu ukhuva sisimusya nukhuva kumbusya imbombo inchii, nengave munele igati umo.
But I think it right, so long as I remain in the body, my present dwelling-place, to arouse you by such reminders.
14 Ulwa khuva nelumanyile ukhuta usekhe intali nikhega igati indyumwe, inave umbaha uYesu Klisiti uwambonisye.
For I know that the time for me to lay aside my body is now rapidly drawing near, even as our Lord Jesus Christ has revealed to me.
15 Yunikhetanga fincho khwa ajili yenyo ili mukumbukhe embombo inchii inave une nikhega.
So on every possible occasion I will also do my best to enable you to recall these things after my departure.
16 Ulwa khuva ufwe satukhakonge ivichago ififingejiwe kho vunonu pultuhavavulile pakhwanya pa maha nukhwewonesya khwa mbaha uYesu Klisiti, ila ofwe twale vemelenchii uvuvalanche uwa mwene.
For when we made known to you the power and Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, we were not eagerly following cleverly devised legends, but we had been eye-witnesses of His majesty.
17 Umwene apokhile uvuvalanche nukhweshisya ukhuma khwa Nguluve daada uvuyikhapulekhikhe esavuti ukhukhuma khuvu valanche uvuvakha vuvuenchoova, “Uyo ve demi vango, ugane vango uvenenogela mwe inave.”
He received honour and glory from God the Father, and out of the wondrous glory words such as these were spoken to Him, "This is My dearly-loved Son, in whom I take delight."
18 Tukhapulikhe esavuti vuyiikhumile khukwanya lula vutule nave pa khewamba ikhevalanche.
And we ourselves heard these words come from Heaven, when we were with Him on the holy mountain.
19 Tulinago amamenyu aganya malango agagakhavonikhe, agamuvomba vononu ukhugavekhera. Inave koroboi eyeying'ara mu khisi impakha khwikwa ni nondwe incha khu vukwelo inchinchivonekha khunumbula ncheenyo.
And in the written word of prophecy we have something more permanent; to which you do well to pay attention--as to a lamp shining in a dimly-lighted place--until day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
20 Mulumanye aga uhuta, asikhuli unyamalago uyisimba ulwa khuva ikhesagila khumalago aga mwene.
But, above all, remember that no prophecy in Scripture will be found to have come from the prophet's own prompting;
21 Ulwa khuva asikhuri unyamalago uyiinchile khulugano ulwa munu, ulwakhuva avanu vagendile mwa mepo ombalanche uyukhanchoovile ukhukhuma khwa Nguluve.
for never did any prophecy come by human will, but men sent by God spoke as they were impelled by the Holy Spirit.
