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 an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us, in the righteousness of our God, and of our saviour Jesus Christ:
2 Neema ijhiaghe kwa jhomu; amani j'hij'hongesikabaghe kup'hetela maarifa gha k'yara ni Bwana bhitu Yesu
grace and peace be multiplied unto you, in the acknowledgement of God, and of 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 hath given us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who hath called us by that glory and virtue,
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.
by which are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises; that by these ye may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 Kwa ndabha ej'he mubhombaghe bidii kujhongesya bhunofu kwa nj'ela j'ha imani j'hinu, kwandabha j'ha bhunofu, maarifa.
And to this giving all diligence, add to your faith fortitude;
6 Kup'hetela maarifa, kiasi, ni kup'hetela kiasi saburi, bhwibeta kukhoma.
and to fortitude knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience piety;
7 Kup'hetela bhutaua luganu lwa ndongobhu ni kup'hetela lugano lwa ndongobhu, luganu.
and to piety brotherly affection; and to brotherly affection charity.
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 be in you and abound, they will not suffer you to be idle, nor unfruitful in the knowledge 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, that hath not these, is blind, or short-sighted, having forgot his baptismal purification from his former sins.
10 bhalongo bhangu, m'mbombaghe juhudi ili kwihakikishia bhuteule ni bhwito kwandabha j'hinu. Kama m'mbeta kubhomba agha m'betalei kwikungufula.
Wherefore, my brethren, be the more diligent thus to make your calling and election sure; for if ye do these things ye shall 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 so an entrance shall be administered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour 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 put you always in mind of these things, though ye 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.
And I think it my duty, while I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by way of remembrance:
14 maana nimanyili kuj'ha si mda mrefu nibhoke nikajhibhosya hema j'hangu, kama Bwana Yesu Kristu kyaandasisye.
knowing that I must soon lay down this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
15 kwitanga kwa bidii kwa ndabha j'hinu ili mkhombokaj'hi mambo agha baada j'ha nene kubhoka.
And I will endeavour that after my departure also ye may always be able to call these things to 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 artfully devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; but 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 a voice came to Him from the magnificent glory, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
18 sauti ej'he kuhomela kumbinguni pala bhotujhenakupa kid'onda kitakatifu.
And this voice, 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.
We have also the more sure word of the prophets, to which ye do well to attend, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, till the day dawn, and the morning-star rise 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 scripture is of 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 prophecy was not delivered of old at the will of man, but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the holy Spirit.
