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 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 hampitomboina ho anareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana amin’ ny fahalalana tsara an’ Andriamanitra sy Jesosy Tompontsika.
grace and peace be multiplied unto you, in the acknowledgement of God, and of 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 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 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;
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 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,
And to this giving all diligence, add to your faith fortitude;
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 fortitude knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience piety;
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 piety brotherly affection; and to brotherly affection charity.
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 be in you and abound, they will not suffer you to be idle, nor unfruitful in the knowledge 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, that hath not these, is blind, or short-sighted, having forgot his baptismal purification from his former 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, 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 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 so an entrance shall be administered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour 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 put you always in mind of these things, though ye 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,
And I think it my duty, while I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by way of remembrance:
14 satria fantatro fa ho avy tampoka ny hanesorana ny trano-laiko, dia toy ny nasehon’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika tamiko koa.
knowing that I must soon lay down this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.
15 Ary dia hataoko izay zakako mba hisy hahatsiarovanareo izany zavatra izany mandrakariva, rehefa maty aho.
And I will endeavour that after my departure also ye may always be able to call these things to 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 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 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 a voice came to Him from the magnificent glory, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
18 Ary renay io feo avy tany an-danitra io, raha niara-nipetraka taminy tany an-tendrombohitra masìna izahay.
And this voice, 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;
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 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 scripture is of 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 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.
