1 Kuwa abhilenga bhafumie hwa Izilaeli, na bhalima abhilenga bhaihweza hulimwe husili bhaileta emanyizyo ezilenga nantele bhaikhana Ogosi yabahkale bha hwiletela idaelwomwa bho bhalinanali hwa bhanesho.
But false prophets also arose amongst the people, as false teachers will also be amongst you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.
Many will follow their immoral ways, and as a result, the way of the truth will be maligned.
3 Bhinyi bhabhainyililila idala eeyo elyesoni ashilile abhene bhandali khane idala elyelyoli. Huwimi bhaibhakhopelela abhatu ashilile engwa ezilenga lonje oyosaga hubhakhabhe anajishe hwaibhalondolela.
In covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn’t linger, and their destruction will not slumber.
4 Nantele Ongolobhe sagabhaleshile atumi bhabhatejila nate abhatajile hwilongo napinye amanyolo paka olozipawaibhezela. (Tartaroō )
For if God didn’t spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved for judgement; (Tartaroō )
5 Nantele Ongolobhe sagaijimbile esi yemade nantele abhashele o Nuhu, yakwiziwe lyoli pamonamwa saba, esiku zyazye bhalile alesheye avulungwemsi yenjishe.
and didn’t spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly,
6 Ungolobhe ilojile esi eya Sodoma nahu Gomola nabhe lilota nanajishe elyoliwe fano hwabhibhi hwisiku lyalihwenza.
and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live in an ungodly way,
7 Nantele pahabhambile elyo ofwolele olutumtu owelyoli yali azugumiye nenjendo echatu bhasebhajenda mwidale elya Ngolobhe.
and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked
8 Nantele oyo omtu owe lyoli adelele anabho isiku hwi siku ayembaga omoyo gwakwe hwa gala gagonvwezye naga lole.
(for that righteous man dwelling amongst them was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds),
9 Hwega Ogosi amenye sadabhafwole abhatubhakwa husiku enzyema yemba aajimbilile humbibhi husiku zyamwisho.
then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgement,
10 Hwa huje lyoli hwa bahala bhabah hwendelera akhale mu nyonyo zye bele ogu nashentde olukajizyo. Abhandu bhabhali eshibhali nojimvi hu nsebho zyabho, saga bhahogopa abhalije atundumu.
but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,
11 Ngashele antumi bhaline hani nikhone ashile abhantu, nantele saga bhanda wezye aleteolonzi ngwabho hwagosi.
whereas angels, though greater in might and power, don’t bring a slanderous judgement against them before the Lord.
12 Nantele ezi ehanu zyasaga zili ne njere bhalengenywe hulwinzo lwa khatwe nagogwe. Bhavwa lala humposhezi zyembibhi zyabho.
But these, as unreasoning creatures, born natural animals to be taken and destroyed, speaking evil in matters about which they are ignorant, will in their destroying surely be destroyed,
13 Osanya wonti olenda humbimbi. Bhamemire obhibhi nembibhi. Osongwa embibhi ezilenga pabha shimili nawe.
receiving the wages of unrighteousness; people who count it pleasure to revel in the daytime, spots and defects, revelling in their deceit while they feast with you;
14 Amaso gabho gakwinshilwe no umalaya; sebhaya abhombe embibhi. Bhabhakhopela nabha gwisye abhoziwa bhasaga bhakhomile humbimbi. Bhali namoyo gaga memile enyonyo bhana bhabha yejerwe.
having eyes full of adultery, and who can’t cease from sin, enticing unsettled souls, having a heart trained in greed, accursed children!
15 Bhalileshile idala lyelyoli. Bhatejire nafwate idala lya Balaam omwana wa Beori, wasongwelwe apate emposhezi zye mbibhi.
Forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing;
16 Antele alajilwe hwidala lye mbimbi zyakwe edogobhi yasaga eyanga ayanjile hwizu lya bhantu azijile akubha...
but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A speechless donkey spoke with a man’s voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.
17 Abhantu ebha sawa ne ndobhe zyasaga zilinamenzo. Nashi amabhengo gaga sogora nehara, ibhengo igosi libhe shelwe hwa bhene. ()
These are wells without water, clouds driven by a storm, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. ()
18 Ayanga nahwi vune bhabha gwisya abhantu hunyonyo zye bele, bhabha khopela abhantu bhabhalenga ashembele bhala bhabhadela mumbibhi.
For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;
19 Bhabha lajizya abhantu owene nantele abhenele bhatu bhatumwe bhe embibhi zyembibhi. Nantele amuntu abhombwe hwa hwa haha hutabhala.
promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.
20 Umwene wajefwa nobhibhi wensi otumileenjere zyagosi wetu OYesu Kilisti, nantele aweyera obhibhi owe nantele, ehali yakwe abhe mbibhi ashe ye hale.
For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
21 Ehwanzi wa aje abhantu ebho enga saga bhamnye idala lye lyoli nantele nazileshe ensomboenyinza zyabhapewilwe.
For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22 Enjere ezi nelyoli hwabhene. “embwa ewe yela amatapisi gakwe. Engolobhe yeyozirwe ewiyanantere mmatoto.”
But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, “The dog turns to his own vomit again,” and “the sow that has washed to wallowing in the mire.”
