2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, služabnik in apostol Jezusa Kristusa tem, ki so z nami po Božji pravičnosti in našem Odrešeniku Jezusu Kristusu dosegli podobno dragoceno vero:
Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
2 ›Milost in mir naj se vam pomnožita prek spoznanja Boga in Jezusa, našega Gospoda,
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 glede na to, kot nam je njegova božanska moč dala vse stvari, ki se nanašajo na življenje in bogaboječnost, prek spoznanja tistega, ki nas je poklical v slavo in moč;
seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue;
4 po katerih so nam dane silno velike in dragocene obljube, da bi bili po teh lahko soudeleženci božanske narave, ko smo pobegnili propadljivosti, ki je na svetu prek poželenja.‹
by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
5 In poleg tega darujte vso marljivost, dodajte svoji veri krepost, in kreposti spoznanje,
Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 in spoznanju zmernost, in zmernosti potrpežljivost, in potrpežljivosti bogaboječnost,
and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
7 in bogaboječnosti bratsko prijaznost, in bratski prijaznosti ljubezen.
and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Kajti če so te stvari v vas in [so] obilne, vas naredijo, da ne boste niti jalovi niti brez sadu v spoznanju našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.
For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Toda komur te stvari primanjkujejo, je slep in kratkoviden in je pozabil, da je bil očiščen od svojih starih grehov.
For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Bratje, zatorej si raje prizadevajte, da storite svojo poklicanost in izvoljenost zanesljivo; kajti če te stvari počnete, nikoli ne boste padli,
Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 kajti tako vam bo razkošno odprt vstop v večno kraljestvo našega Gospoda in Odrešenika Jezusa Kristusa. (aiōnios g166)
For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the everlasting Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Zato ne bom nemaren, da vas ne bi vedno opominjal o teh stvareh, čeprav jih veste in ste utrjeni v pričujoči resnici.
Therefore I will be ready always to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Da, mislim, da je primerno, dokler sem v tem šotoru, da vas razvnamem s tem, da vas spomnim,
I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 vedoč, da bom moral v kratkem odložiti ta svoj šotor, kakor mi je pokazal naš Gospod Jezus Kristus.
knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Poleg tega si bom prizadeval, da boste po mojem odhodu [s sveta] lahko imeli te stvari vedno v spominu.
Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Kajti ko smo vam dali spoznati moč in prihod našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, nismo sledili pretkano izmišljenim bajkam, ampak smo bili očividci njegovega veličanstva.
For we did not follow cunningly devised tales, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 Kajti od Boga Očeta je prejel čast in slavo, ko je iz odlične slave k njemu prišel takšen glas: »Ta je moj ljubljeni Sin, v katerem sem zelo zadovoljen.«
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
18 In ta glas, ki je prišel z neba, smo slišali, ko smo bili z njim na sveti gori.
We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Imamo tudi zanesljivejšo preroško besedo; zato pravilno delate, da pazite nanjo kakor na svetilko, ki sije na temnem kraju, dokler ne zasveti zora in v vaših srcih ne vzide zvezda danica;
We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the morning star arises in your hearts:
20 vedoč najprej to, da nobena prerokba iz pisem ni iz kakršnekoli osebne razlage.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Kajti prerokba v starih časih ni prišla s človeško voljo, temveč so sveti Božji možje govorili, kakor bi bili spodbujeni s Svetim Duhom.
For no prophecy ever came by human will, but people spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
