2 Peetero 1
1 Nze Simooni Peetero omuddu era omutume wa Yesu Kristo mpandiikira abo abaafuna okukkiriza okw’omuwendo nga ffe, mu butuukirivu bwa Katonda waffe era Omulokozi waffe Yesu Kristo,
Simon Peter, the servant of God and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those receiving like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 ekisa n’emirembe byeyongerenga mu mmwe nga mutegeera Katonda ne Yesu Mukama waffe.
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the perfect knowledge of Jesus Christ, our Lord.
3 Kubanga mu maanyi g’obwakatonda bwe, mwe twaweerwa ebintu byonna olw’obulamu buno n’okutya Katonda mu kumanya oyo eyatuyita olw’ekitiibwa kye n’obulungi bwe ye.
As His divine power having given unto us all things which appertain to life and godliness, through the perfect knowledge of the one having called us to his own glory and virtue:
4 Ebyo bye byatuweesa ebisuubizo eby’omuwendo ebikulu, mu byo mulyoke mugabanire awamu obuzaaliranwa bw’obwakatonda, muwone okuzikirira okuva mu kwegomba okubi okw’omu nsi.
through which precious and greatest promises have been given unto us; that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 Noolwekyo mufubenga nnyo, okukkiriza kwammwe mukwongereko obulungi, ne ku bulungi mwongereko okutegeera,
And in harmony with this same thing also, add to your faith heroism; and to heroism, knowledge;
6 ne ku kutegeera mwongereko okwefuganga, ne ku kwefuganga mwongereko obugumiikiriza, ne ku bugumiikiriza mwongereko okutya Katonda,
and to knowledge holiness; and to holiness patience; and patience, godliness;
7 ne ku kutya Katonda mwongereko okufaayo ku booluganda abalala bonna ne ku kufaayo ku booluganda bonna abalala mwongereko okwagalananga.
and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness divine love.
8 Kubanga bwe muba n’ebyo ne byeyongera obungi, bibafuula ba mugaso era ababala ebibala olw’okutegeera Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo.
For these things, being in you and overflowing, render you neither barren nor unfruitful in the perfect knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ;
9 Oyo atalina ebyo muzibe wa maaso era awunaawuna, era yeerabidde bwe yanaazibwako ebibi bye eby’edda.
for he unto whom these things are not present is blind, not seeing afar off, having received the forgetfulness of his purgation from his old sins.
10 Kale, abooluganda mweyongerenga okunywerera mu kulondebwa kwammwe ne mu kuyitibwa kwammwe. Kubanga bwe munaakolanga bwe mutyo temulyesittala n’omulundi n’ogumu.
Therefore, brethren, be the more diligent to make your calling and election sure: for doing these things you can never fall.
11 Era mulyanirizibwa n’essanyu lingi nnyo mu bwakabaka bwa Mukama waffe era Omulokozi waffe Yesu Kristo. (aiōnios g166)
For in this way an entrance will be administered unto you abundantly into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Noolwekyo, ebyo nzija kubibajjukizanga buli kiseera, newaakubadde nga mubimanyi, era nga ddala munyweredde mu mazima ge mwategeera.
Therefore I will be about to always remind you concerning these things, even though knowing them, and being established in the present truth.
13 Era ndowooza nti kiŋŋwanira nga nkyali mu mubiri guno, okubakubirizanga nga nneeyongera okubibajjukiza.
But I consider it righteous, so long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by remembrance;
14 Kubanga mmanyi nga nnaatera okuva mu mubiri guno, nga Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo bwe yantegeeza.
knowing that the laying aside of my tabernacle is swift, as our Lord Jesus Christ also showed to me.
15 Kyenva nfuba ennyo okukola kyonna kye nsobola, ne bwe ndivaawo mube ng’ebyo byonna mubijjukira.
And I will endeavor to have each one of you after my departure make mention of these things.
16 Kubanga tetwagoberera ngero bugero ezaagunjibwa wabula twabategeeza ebyo bye twalabirako ddala, eby’amaanyi n’okukomawo kwa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, era n’obukulu bwe.
For not having followed cunningly devised fables, have we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but having been eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 Kubanga Katonda Kitaffe yamuwa ekitiibwa n’ettendo, eddoboozi bwe lyawulikika okuva mu ggulu mu kitiibwa ekingi ekimasamasa nti, “Ono ye Mwana wange omwagalwa gwe nsanyukira ennyo.”
For having received from God the Father the honor and glory of such a voice having been borne to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 Ffe bwe twali awamu naye ku lusozi olutukuvu, twawulirira ddala eddoboozi eryo eryava mu ggulu.
We, being with him in the holy mount, heard this voice borne from heaven.
19 Kyetuvudde tweyongera okukakasa ebyo bannabbi bye baategeeza, era bwe munaabigonderanga munaabanga mukoze bulungi. Kubanga biri ng’ettaala eyaka mu kizikiza okutuusa obudde lwe bukya, emunyeenye ey’enkya n’eryoka eyaka mu mitima gyammwe.
And we have the more certain word of prophecy; to which you do well giving heed, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day may dawn, and the morning-star may rise in your hearts:
20 Okusooka mukimanye nga buli bunnabbi obuli mu byawandiikibwa, tewali ayinza kubunnyonnyola ku bubwe yekka.
know this in the first place, that no prophecy of scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Kubanga bannabbi tebaayogeranga byabwe ku bwabwe, wabula baategeezanga ebyo Katonda bye yabalagiranga nga Mwoyo Mutukuvu bwe yabibawanga.
For in the olden time prophecy did not come by the will of man: but men moved by the Holy Ghost spoke from God.
