2 Petera 1
1 Simona Petera, mpanompo sy Apostolin’ i Jesosy Kristy, mamangy izay efa nahazo finoana soa tahaka ny anay amin’ ny fahamarinan’ i Jesosy Kristy, Andriamanitsika sy Mpamonjy:
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 hampitomboina ho anareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana amin’ ny fahalalana tsara an’ Andriamanitra sy Jesosy Tompontsika.
grace be to you, and peace be multiplied in the acknowledgment of God, and Jesus our Lord.
3 Efa nomen’ ny herin’ Andriamanitra ho antsika ny zavatra rehetra momba ny fiainana sy ny toe-panahy araka an’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny fahalalana Ilay niantso antsika tamin’ ny voninahiny sy ny fahatsarany;
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 ary izany no nahatanterahany amintsika ireo teny fikasana sady soa no lehibe indrindra, mba ho tonga mpiray amin’ ny fomban’ Andriamanitra amin’ izany ianareo, rehefa afa-nandositra ny fahalotoana izay eo amin’ izao tontolo izao noho ny filàna;
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 koa noho izany dia manaova izay zotom-po rehetra kosa ianareo, ka amin’ ny finoanareo dia manehoa fahatanjahan-tsaina, ary amin’ ny fahatanjahan-tsainareo dia fahalalana,
so, even for this very purpose, uniting to these things all diligence, add to your faith, virtue; and to virtue, knowledge;
6 ary amin’ ny fahalalanareo dia fahononam-po, ary amin’ ny fahononam-ponareo dia faharetana, ary amin’ ny faharetanareo dia toe-panahy araka an’ Andriamanitra,
and to knowledge, temperance; and to temperance, patience; and to patience, godliness;
7 ary amin’ ny toe-panahinareo araka an’ Andriamanitra dia fitiavana ny rahalahy, ary amin’ ny fitiavanareo ny rahalahy dia fitiavana ny olona rehetra.
and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.
8 Fa raha anananareo izany zavatra izany, sady anananareo betsaka, dia tsy avelan’ izany ho malaina na tsy hahavokatra ianareo amin’ ny fahalalana tsara an’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika.
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 Fa izay tsy manana izany zavatra izany kosa dia toa jamba ka tsy mahajery lavitra, sady nanadino ny nanadiovana azy tamin’ ny fahotany voalohany izy.
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 Ary amin’ izany dia mazotoa kokoa, ry rahalahy, hampitoetra ny fiantsoana sy ny fifidianana anareo; fa raha manao izany zavatra izany ianareo, dia tsy ho tafintohina akory mandrakizay;
Wherefore, brethren, give the greater diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, you will never fall.
11 fa toy izany no hanomezana malalaka ho anareo ny fidirana ho any amin’ ny fanjakana mandrakizay, izay an’ i Jesosy Kristy, Tompontsika sy Mpamonjy antsika. (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 Koa hazoto mandrakariva hampahatsiaro anareo ny amin’ izany zavatra izany aho, na dia efa fantatrareo aza, ka efa naorina tsara amin’ ny fahamarinana izay efa eo aminareo.
Wherefore, I will not neglect to remind you always of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Fa raha mbola eto amin’ ity trano-lay ity aho, dia ataoko fa mety ny hampifoha anareo amin’ ny fampahatsiarovana anareo,
Indeed, I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to arouse you by putting you in remembrance.
14 satria fantatro fa ho avy tampoka ny hanesorana ny trano-laiko, dia toy ny nasehon’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika tamiko koa.
For I know that the putting off of this my tabernacle is near at hand, even as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.
15 Ary dia hataoko izay zakako mba hisy hahatsiarovanareo izany zavatra izany mandrakariva, rehefa maty aho.
But I will earnestly endeavor that you may be able, even after my decease, to have these things always in remembrance.
16 Fa tsy nanaraka izay anganongano noforonin’ ny fahafetsen’ ny saina izahay, raha nampahafantatra anareo ny hery sy ny fihavian’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika; fa efa hitan’ ny masonay ny fiandrianany.
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 Fa nahazo laza amam-boninahitra tamin’ Andriamanitra Ray Izy, raha tonga teo aminy avy tamin’ ny voninahitra lehibe indrindra ilay feo nanao hoe: “Ity no Zanako malalako izay sitrako”.
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 Ary renay io feo avy tany an-danitra io, raha niara-nipetraka taminy tany an-tendrombohitra masìna izahay.
And this voice, which came from heaven, we heard when we were with him in the holy mount;
19 Ary manana ny teny faminaniana atao mafy orina kokoa isika; koa raha mandinika izany ianareo, dia manao tsara, fa toy ny jiro mahazava ao amin’ ny fitoerana maizimaizina izany, mandra-pahazavan’ ny andro, ka miposaka ao am-ponareo ny fitarik’ andro;
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 fa fantatrareo voalohany indrindra fa ny famoahan-kevitry ny faminaniana ao amin’ ny Soratra Masìna dia tsy efan’ ny fisainan’ ny olona fotsiny ihany;
knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture came from private interpretation:
21 fa tsy nisy faminaniana avy tamin’ ny sitrapon’ ny olona tany aloha rehetra; fa avy tamin’ Andriamanitra no nitenenan’ ny olona araka izay nitondran’ ny Fanahy Masìna azy.
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.
