< 2 Petro 1 >

1 Simon petro, N'tumwa na Mtume ghwa Yesu Kristu, Kwa bhala bhabhajijhambelili imani j'helaj'hela j'ha thamani kama kyatuj'hi j'hambelili tete, imani j'haijhele j'ha ij'hele mugati mu haki j'ha k'yara ni mwokozi ghwitu Yesu Kristu.
Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained faith, equally as precious as our own, in the plan of justification revealed by our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
2 Neema ijhiaghe kwa jhomu; amani j'hij'hongesikabaghe kup'hetela maarifa gha k'yara ni Bwana bhitu Yesu
grace be to you, and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgment of God, and Jesus our Lord.
3 Kup'hetela maarifa gha k'yara tukabhili mambo ghake ghoha kwandabha j'ha uchaji bhwa maisha, kuh'omela kwa k'yara j'heatukutilisha, kwandabha j'ha bhunofu bhwa bhutukufu bhwake.
As his divine power has given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the acknowledgment of him who has called us by his glorious power,
4 Kwa nj'hela ej'he atutumainisili ahadi kuu sya thamani. Abhombi naha ili kutubhomba bharithi bha asili j'ha k'yara, kwa kadri kyatwi j'hendilela kubhuleka bhuovu bhwa dunia ej'he.
through which things very great and precious favors that were promised have been given us, that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through desire:
5 Kwa ndabha ej'he mubhombaghe bidii kujhongesya bhunofu kwa nj'ela j'ha imani j'hinu, kwandabha j'ha bhunofu, maarifa.
so, even for this very purpose, uniting to these things all diligence, add to your faith, virtue; and to virtue, knowledge;
6 Kup'hetela maarifa, kiasi, ni kup'hetela kiasi saburi, bhwibeta kukhoma.
and to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godliness;
7 Kup'hetela bhutaua luganu lwa ndongobhu ni kup'hetela lugano lwa ndongobhu, luganu.
and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.
8 Kama mambo agha ghaj'hele mugati mwinu, kyaghij'hendelela kukhola mugati mwinu, basi muenga mwibeta lepi kuj'ha tasa au bhanu mwa mwihogola lepi matunda mu maarifa gha Bwana Yesu Kristu.
For if these things be in you, and abound, they cause you to be neither idle, nor unfruitful as it respects the acknowledgment of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Lakini j'hej'hoha j'haabeli kuj'ha ni mambo agha akaghabhona mambo gha karibu tu; muene kipofu. ajhebhelili bhutakaso bhwa dhambi sya muandi
But he who is wanting in these things is blind, and closes his eyes, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.
10 bhalongo bhangu, m'mbombaghe juhudi ili kwihakikishia bhuteule ni bhwito kwandabha j'hinu. Kama m'mbeta kubhomba agha m'betalei kwikungufula.
Wherefore, brethren, give the greater diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, you will never fall.
11 m'beta kwikabhila bhwingi bhwa lango lya kuj'hingilila mu mufalme bhwa milele bhwa Bwana ghwitu ni mwokozi Yesu Kristu (aiōnios g166)
For thus will an entrance be given you abundantly into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 nene nibetakuj'ha tayari kubhakhombosya mambo agha kila mara, hata kama mughamanyili ni henu muj'hele imara mu bhukweli.
Wherefore, I will not neglect to remind you always of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 kuj'ha njele kinofu kubhasisimula ni kubhakhombosya juu j'ha mambo agha, ningali j'hele mu lihema e'le.
Indeed, I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to arouse you by putting you in remembrance.
14 maana nimanyili kuj'ha si mda mrefu nibhoke nikajhibhosya hema j'hangu, kama Bwana Yesu Kristu kyaandasisye.
For I know that the putting off of this my tabernacle is near at hand, even as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.
15 kwitanga kwa bidii kwa ndabha j'hinu ili mkhombokaj'hi mambo agha baada j'ha nene kubhoka.
But I will earnestly endeavor that you may be able, even after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.
16 tete twafwatiti lepi hadithi syasij'hingisibhu kwa ustadi pala patwabhabholili juu j'ha ngofu ni kukidhihirisha kwa Bwana bhwitu Yesu Kristu, bali tete twaj'hele mashahidi bha bhutukufu bhwake.
For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eye-witnesses of his majesty.
17 aj'hamb'elili bhutukufu ni litengo kuhoma kwa k'yara tata pale sauti bhoj'hip'helekiki kuhoma mu bhutukufu mbaha kyaj'hijobha, “Ojho ndo mwanabhangu, n'ganwa ghwangu ambaj'he nikyelili naku.
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came to him from the magnificent glory a voice, such as this: This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight.
18 sauti ej'he kuhomela kumbinguni pala bhotujhenakupa kid'onda kitakatifu.
And this voice, which came from heaven, we heard when we were with him in the holy mount;
19 e'le lilobhi lya bhunabii lyalithibitiki, ambalyo mwibhomba kinofu kulitekelesya. Ni kama taa kyaj'hing'ara mu ngisi mpaka kwibhalala ni matondo gha mawio kyasibhonekana mu mi'teema ghinu.
and we have the prophetic word better established. You do well to attend to this, as to a lamp that shines in a dark place, till the day dawn, and the morning star arise in your hearts;
20 Mumanyaghe agha j'he kuj'ha j'hij'helepi bhunabii bhwabhwij'handikibhwa kwa ndabha j'ha kujifikirisya kwa nabii muene.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture came from private interpretation:
21 kuj'ha bhuj'helepi bhunabii bhwabhuhidili kwa mapenzi gha mwanadamu, isipokuj'ha bhanadamu bhabhwezeshibhu ni Roho Mtakatifu j'haalongili kuh'omela kwa K'yara.
for the prophecy came not at any time by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
