Petruj II 3
1 IET kijin likau kariau, me i intin won komail, kompok kan, pwen kataman kin komail O kapirada nen omail makelekel.
This second letter, beloved, I now write to you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2 Pwe komail en tamanda majan en jaukop jaraui kan, kujoned en Kaun o Jaunkamaur, me wanporon oko, me pakadar won komail, wa don komail.
That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Savior:
3 O iet eta komail en aja, ni imwin ran akan aramaj lalaue pan pwarado, me pan weweid ni pein ar inon jued.
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4 Indada: la kilel en a pan kotido? Pwe jan ni ran o, jam akan melar kokodo lel met, meakaroj kin dueta nin tapi o.
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5 Pwe irail kin men ponjaja, me majia lan akan o jappa eu mia nan pil o, ap pwarada jan nan pil ki majan en Kot.
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6 I me jappa en maj o okilar nolik lapalap.
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7 Pil dueta lan akan o jappa en met nekinek kita majan ota on kijiniai ni ran en kadeik o kampan aramaj me jan Kot akan.
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved to fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8 Kompok kan, iet eta komail ni aja, me ran ta ieu o par kid raj pena ta ren Kaun o, o par kid o ran eu dupeneta.
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 Kaun o j ota kotin kapwandela inau o, duen akai kin kiki on, pwe a kotin kanonama on komail, pwe a jota kotin mauki, akai en lokidokila, pwe karoj en wilikapala.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 A ran en Kaun o pan pwarado dueta lipirap amen. I dokan lan akan pan mor pajan ni moron lapalap o tapipa kan pan pei pajan ki kijiniai kel, o jappa o a dipijou kan pan ronala.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Ari, ma mepukat karoj pan ola, iaduen a pan re omail ni omail wiawia mau o lelapok,
Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12 Pwe komail kin auiaui o inon ion ran en Kot, me lan akan pan ron kila kijiniai, o tapipa kan pei pajan, pwe karakar muletok.
Looking for and hastening to the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 A kitail kin auiaui lan kap akan o jappa kap, waja me lamalam pun pan wiaui, duen a kotin inaukidar.
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness.
14 Kompok kan, pweki omail auiaui mepukat, komail en nantion, pwe komail en diarokada re a jo jamin, o jo japun ni popol.
Why, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15 Pwe komail aja duen kanonama en atail Kaun, pwe i kamaur pa’mail, duen ri atail Pauluj kompok intin won komail er ni lolekon, me ko on i.
And account that the long-suffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given to him has written to you;
16 Duen a kajokajoi nan a kijin likau karoj, a akai waja me apwal en dedeki, me jololekon o jo lolin akan kin kawukila, dueta ar pil kawukila majan tei kan, me pan kare on irail pein ar lokidokila.
As also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
17 Kompok kan, pweki omail aja mepukat, komail kalaka, pwe komail der japun kila padak en me jued akan, ap pupedi jan kateneten komail.
You therefore, beloved, seeing you know these things before, beware lest you also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.
The World is Destroyed by Water
