< 2 Butros 3 >

1 Gacaliyayaalow, tanu waa warqaddii labaad oo aan idiin soo qoray, oo labadoodaba waxaan maankiinna daacadda ah ku guubaabinayaa xusuusin,
Beloved, this second epistle I now write to you, in which epistles I stir up your sincere mind to remembrance:
2 inaad xusuusataan erayadii ay nebiyadii quduuska ahaa hore ugu hadleen, iyo amarkii Rabbiga Badbaadiyaha ah oo ay rasuulladiinnu ku hadleen.
to be mindful of the words before spoken by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the Apostles of the Lord and Saviour.
3 Marka hore waxaad og tihiin in maalmaha ugu dambeeya kuwa majaajiloodaa ay la iman doonaan majaajilo iyagoo damacyadooda daba socda,
Knowing this first, that scoffers will come in the last days, walking after their own lusts,
4 oo waxay odhan doonaan, Ballankii imaatinkiisii meeh? Waayo, haatan iyo maalintii awowayaashii ay dhinteen wax waluba waxay u socdaan sidii ay ahaayeen tan iyo bilowgii abuurniinta.
and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for from the time the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as at the beginning of the creation.
5 Waayo, iyagu kaas bay u illoobaan in waagii hore samooyin jireen iyo dhul erayga Ilaah biyo lagaga dhex abuuray,
But this willfully escapes them, that, by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth subsisting from the water, and by water:
6 kuwaas oo dunidii waagaas jirtay ay ku baabba'day iyadoo daad qaaday.
by which the world that then was, being deluged with water, perished.
7 Laakiinse samooyinka haatan jira iyo dhulkaba isku eray baa dab loogu kaydiyey, oo waxaa loo hayaa maalinta xisaabta iyo halligaadda dadka cibaadalaawayaasha ah.
But the present heavens and the earth, by the same word are treasured up, being kept for fire to a day of judgment, and destruction of ungodly men.
8 Laakiinse, gacaliyayaalow, waxan keliya ha illoobina in maalin keliyahu Rabbiga la tahay sida kun sannadood, kun sannadoodna la yihiin sida maalin keliya.
But this one thing, let it not escape you, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
9 Rabbigu kama raago inuu ballankiisa oofiyo sida dadka qaarkiis ku tiriyo inay tahay raagid, laakiinse idinkuu idiin dulqaadanayaa, oo dooni maayo in qofnaba halligmo, laakiinse wuxuu doonayaa in kulli la wada toobadkeeno.
The Lord does not delay his promise in the manner some account delaying; but he exercises long-suffering toward us, not desiring that any should perish, but that all should come to reformation.
10 Laakiinse maalinta Rabbigu waxay u iman doontaa sida tuug oo kale; maalintaas oo ay samooyinku baabbi'i doonaan iyagoo sanqadh weynu ka yeedhayso, oo waxyaalaha abuuranna iyagoo gubanaya ayay baabbi'i doonaan. Dhulka iyo shuqullada ku jirana waa la gubi doonaa.
However, as thief, the day of the Lord will come; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements burning shall be dissolved; and the earth, and the works that are upon it, shall be utterly burned.
11 Haddii waxyaalahan oo dhammu ay sidaas u baabbi'i doonaan, haddaba dad caynkee ah baa idinku waajib ah inaad noqotaan si aad ugu dhaqantaan dabiicad quduus ah iyo cibaado,
Seeing, then, all these things shall be dissolved; --what sort of persons ought you to be, in holy behavior and godliness,
12 idinkoo sugaya oo aad ugu dadaalaya imaatinka maalinta Ilaah, taasoo samooyinku iyagoo ololaya ay baabbi'i doonaan, waxyaalaha abuuranna iyagoo gubanaya ayay dhalaali doonaan.
expecting and earnestly desiring, the coming of the day of God; in which the heavens being set on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements burning, shall be melted?
13 Laakiinse sidii uu inoo ballanqaaday, waxaynu sugaynaa samooyin cusub iyo dhul cusub oo xaqnimo dhex deggan tahay.
But we, according to his promise, expect new heavens, and a new earth, in which dwells righteousness.
14 Sidaas daraaddeed, gacaliyayaalow, idinkoo waxyaalahaas sugaya, ku dadaala in laydin helo idinkoo nabdoon oo aan wasakh iyo eed lahayn Ilaah hortiisa.
Wherefore, beloved, expecting these things, diligently endeavor to be found of him spotless, and irreproachable, in peace.
15 Sidii walaalkeen gacaliye Bawlos idiinku soo qoray xigmaddii la siiyey, ku tiriya in dulqaadashada Rabbigeennu tahay badbaado;
And reckon the long-suffering of our Lord, to be for salvation; as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you.
16 siduu warqadihiisii oo dhan waxyaalahan ugaga hadlay. Kuwaas waxaa ku jira wax in la gartaa ay dhib tahay, oo jaahiliinta iyo kuwaan adkayn ayaa qalloociya, siday Qorniinka kaleba u qalloociyaan oo ay u halligmaan.
As, indeed, in all his epistles, speaking in them concerning these things: in which there are some things hard to be understood, which the untaught and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
17 Sidaas daraaddeed, gacaliyayaalow, idinkoo waxyaalahan hore u garanayay, isjira, yaan laydinku kaxaysan qaladka kuwa sharka ah oo aydnaan ka dhicin adkaantiinna.
Therefore, beloved, foreknowing these things, be on your guard; lest being also carried away by the deceit of the lawless, you fall from your own steadfastness.
18 Laakiinse ku kora nimcada iyo aqoonta Rabbigeenna ah Badbaadiyeheenna Ciise Masiix. Isaga ammaanu ha u ahaato haatan iyo weligeedba. Aamiin. (aiōn g165)
But grow in favor, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen. (aiōn g165)
