< २ पत्रुस 1 >
1 येशू ख्रीष्टका दास र प्रेरित सिमोन पत्रुसबाट, हाम्रा परमेश्वरको धार्मिकता र मुक्तिदाता येशू ख्रीष्टमा हाम्रो जस्तै मूल्यवान् विश्वास प्राप्त गरेकाहरूलाई ।
SIMON Peter, the servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained with us the same precious faith by the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:
2 तिमीहरूलाई अनुग्रह होस्; हाम्रा परमेश्वर र येशू ख्रीष्टको ज्ञानद्वारा तिमीहरूमा शान्ति प्रशस्त हुँदै जाओस् ।
grace unto you and peace be multiplied through the knowledge of God, even Jesus our Lord,
3 आफ्नै महिमा र सद्गुणद्वारा हामीलाई बोलाउनुहुने परमेश्वरको ज्ञानद्वारा हामीलाई ईश्वरीय शक्तिको जीवन र धार्मिकताको निम्ति आवश्यक पर्ने सबै कुरा दिइएको छ ।
as his divine power hath freely given us all things tending to life and godliness, through the acknowledgment of him who hath called us to glory and fortitude:
4 यी कुराहरूद्वारा उहाँले हामीलाई बहुमूल्य र महान् प्रतिज्ञाहरू दिनुभएको छ । तिमीहरू संसारका कुइच्छाबाट आउने भ्रष्टताबाट उम्केर ईश्वरीय स्वभावमा सहभागी हुन सक भनेर उहाँले यस्तो गर्नुभयो ।
whereby superlatively great and precious promises are freely given to us: that by these ye might become partakers of a divine nature, having fled far away from the corruption that is in the world through inordinate concupiscence.―
5 यसैकारण, तिमीहरूको विश्वासद्वारा सद्गुण, सद्गुणद्वारा ज्ञान थप्न सक्दो प्रयत्न गर ।
And for this very purpose employing the greatest diligence, lead up in the train of your faith courage; and with courage intelligence;
6 तिमीहरूको ज्ञानद्वारा आत्मसंयम र आत्मसंयमद्वारा सहनशीलता अनि सहनशीलताद्वारा ईश्वरभक्ति ।
and with intelligence moderation; and with moderation patience; and with patience piety;
7 तिमीहरूको ईश्वरभक्तिद्वारा भातृ-स्नेह, र भातृ-स्नेहद्वारा प्रेम ।
and with piety fraternal affection; and with fraternal affection love.
8 यदि यी कुरा तिमीहरूमा छन्, र तिमीहरूमा प्रशस्त हुँदै जान्छन् भने प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टको ज्ञानमा तिमीहरू बाँझो वा निष्फल हुनेछैनौ ।
For if these things are in your possession, and abounding, they will render you neither inactive nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 तर जोसँग यी कुराको घटी छ र नजिकको वस्तु मात्र देख्छ भने, ऊ अन्धो हो । उसले पुरानो पापबाट धोइएको कुरालाई बिर्सेको हुन्छ ।
But he that hath no possession of these things, is blind, dim-sighted, sinking into oblivion of his purification from the sins of his former days.
10 त्यसकारण भाइ हो, आफ्नो बोलावट र चुनाउ निश्चित गर्नको लागि सक्दो प्रयास गर । तिमीहरूले त्यो गर्यौ भने, तिमीहरू लोट्नेछैनौ ।
Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make sure your calling and election: for by doing these things, ye shall never at any time stumble:
11 त्यसकारण, हाम्रा प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टको अनन्त राज्यमा प्रवेशको निम्ति तिमीहरूले प्रशस्त अनुमति पाउनेछौ । (aiōnios )
but an entrance will thus be richly afforded you into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios )
12 यसैले, तिमीहरूलाई यी कुराहरू थाहा भएर अहिले तिमीहरू यो सत्यतामा बलियो भए तापनि म तिमीहरूलाई यी कुराहरू सम्झाउन सधैँ तयार छु ।
Wherefore I will not be negligent continually to remind you of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 जबसम्म म यो शरीररूपी पालमा छु तिमीहरूलाई जागा राख्नु र यी कुराहरूको बारेमा तिमीहरूलाई सम्झाउनु मेरो निम्ति असल हुन्छ भन्ने मलाई लाग्छ ।
Indeed, I think it right, as long as I am in this frail tabernacle, to rouse up your attention by reminding you:
14 किनकि मैले यो पाललाई चाँडै त्याग्दै छु भन्ने मलाई थाहा छ जुन कुरा हाम्रा प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्टले यो मलाई देखाउनुभएको छ ।
knowing that the deposition of this frail tabernacle of mine is hastily approaching, as our Lord Jesus Christ hath made evident to me.
15 मेरो प्रस्थानपछि पनि तिमीहरूले यी कुराहरू सधैँ सम्झन सक भनेर म सक्दो प्रयास गर्नेछु ।
I will endeavour then that even after my decease, ye may always have wherewith to preserve the remembrance of these things.
16 किनकि हामीले येशू ख्रीष्टको शक्ति र आगमनको बारेमा तिमीहरूलाई बताउँदा धूर्ततासँग रचिएका दन्त्यकथाहरूलाई पछ्याएनौँ, तर हामी उहाँको वैभवको प्रत्यक्ष साक्षी थियौँ ।
For we have not followed artfully devised fables, when we made known to you the power and advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his majesty.
17 उहाँले परमेश्वर पिताबाट आदर र महिमा प्राप्त गर्नुभयो, जब वैभवपूर्ण महिमाबाट यो स्वर आएको थियोः “यिनी मेरा प्रिय पुत्र हुन्, जोसित म धेरै खुसी छु ।”
For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when such a voice was sent forth to him from the transcendently magnificent glory, This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 हामी उहाँसित पवित्र डाँडामा हुँदा हामीले स्वर्गबाट आएको त्यो आवाज सुन्यौँ ।
And this voice we heard coming out of heaven, when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 हामीसँग भएको अगमवाणीको वचन अझ निश्चित भएको छ, जसलाई तिमीहरू पालना गर्न उत्तम प्रयास गर्छौ । यो उज्यालो नहुञ्जेल र तिमीहरूका हृदयमा बिहानको तारा नआउञ्जेल अन्धकारमा चम्कने बत्तीजस्तै छ ।
And we hold the prophetic word more confirmed, to which ye do well to attend, as to a lamp shining in a dark passage, until the day dawn, and the morning-star arise upon your hearts.
20 तिमीहरूले पहिले यो जान कि लेखिएको भविष्यवाणी अगमवक्ताको आफ्नै तर्कबाट आउँदैन ।
Knowing this in the first place, that all scriptural prophecy is not from any man’s own suggestions.
21 किनकि कुनै पनि अगमवाणी मानिसहरूको इच्छाबाट आएन, तर परमेश्वरको तर्फबाट बोल्ने पवित्र आत्माद्वारा डोर्याइएका मानिसहरूबाट आयो ।
For prophecy in old time came not by the will of man: but the holy men of God spake under the impulse of the Holy Ghost.
