2 Petro 1
1 Krataa yi firi Simon Petro a meyɛ Yesu Kristo ɔsomfoɔ ne ne ɔsomafoɔ nkyɛn, Mede kɔma wɔn a ɛsiane yɛn Onyankopɔn ne yɛn Agyenkwa Yesu Kristo tenenee enti, wɔama wɔn gyidie a ɛsom bo te sɛ yɛn deɛ no ara pɛ no:
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 Adom ne asomdwoeɛ a ɛdɔɔso a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn ne Yesu a ɔyɛ yɛn Awurade no mmra mo so.
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Onyankopɔn nam ne tumi so ama mo biribiara a ɛho hia ma asetena pa ne nyamesu. Nimdeɛ a yɛwɔ wɔ deɛ ɔfiri nʼanimuonyam ne nnepa mu frɛɛ yɛn no na ama yɛn saa tumi yi.
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 Ɔnam nʼanimuonyam ne ne nnepa so ahyɛ yɛn bɔ a ɛsom bo yie. Ɛno enti, wama yɛn ne su kronkron no bi, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a yɛbɛfiri ewiase yi porɔeɛ a akɔnnɔ bɔne de ba no mu.
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 Esiane saa enti, mommɔ mmɔden mfa nneyɛeɛ a ɛho teɛ nka mo gyidie ho; na momfa nimdeɛ nka nneyɛeɛ a ɛho teɛ ho;
Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 na momfa ahohyɛsoɔ nka mo nimdeɛ ho; na momfa boasetɔ nka mo ahohyɛsoɔ ho; na momfa nyamesom pa nka mo boasetɔ ho;
and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
7 na momfa onuadɔ nka nyamesom pa ho, na momfa ɔdɔ amapa nka onuadɔ ho.
and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Yeinom ne su pa a ɛho hia mo. Na sɛ monya ma ɛdɔɔso a, ɛbɛma mo ayɛ nnam wɔ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo ho nimdeɛ mu.
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 Na obiara a ɔnni bi no yɛ onifirani a ɔntumi nhunu adeɛ. Ne werɛ afiri sɛ wɔahohoro ne bɔne dada.
For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Enti, me nuanom adɔfoɔ, monyere mo ho wɔ dwuma no die mu, na ɛnni mo ho adanseɛ ampa ara sɛ Onyankopɔn afrɛ mo, ayi mo atena hɔ afebɔɔ. Sɛ moyɛ saa a, morensunti na morempa aba nso.
Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 Sɛ mofa saa ɛkwan yi so a, wɔbɛma mo akɔ yɛn Awurade ne yɛn Agyenkwa Yesu Kristo Ahennie a ɛtoɔ ntwa da no mu. (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 Ne saa enti, daa mekaakae mo saa asɛm yi a monim na atim nokorɛ a moagye adi no mu no.
Therefore I will be ready always to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Mesusu sɛ, ɛyɛ sɛ mmerɛ dodoɔ a mete ase yi, mɛbɔ mo nkaeɛ wɔ saa asɛm yi ho.
I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 Menim sɛ ɛrenkyɛre biara mɛgya saa ɔhonam yi hɔ sɛdeɛ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo daa no adi kyerɛɛ me no.
knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Mɛbɔ mmɔden sɛ mɛfa ɛkwan biara so ama mo akae saa nsɛm yi ɛberɛ biara wɔ me wuo akyi.
Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Ɛnyɛ anansesɛm na yɛte bɛka kyerɛɛ mo wɔ yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo tumi ne ba a ɔrebɛba no ho, na mmom, yɛahunu na yɛdi ne kɛseyɛ no ho adanseɛ.
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 Yɛwɔ hɔ bi na Agya Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ no animuonyam ɛberɛ a nne bi firi Animuonyam kɛseɛ mu kaa sɛ, “Yei ne me Dɔba a ɔsɔ mʼani!” no.
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 Yɛn ankasa tee nne no sɛ ɛfiri ɔsoro reba ɛberɛ a na yɛne no wɔ Bepɔ Kronkron no so no.
We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Ɛno enti, ɛma yɛnya nkɔm a odiyifoɔ no hyɛeɛ no mu gyidie yie. Ɛsɛ sɛ motie no yie ɛfiri sɛ, ɛte sɛ kanea a ɛhyerɛn wɔ sum mu kɔsi da a adeɛ bɛkye ama anɔpa nsoromma ahyerɛn wɔ mo akoma mu no.
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 Yeinom nyinaa akyi no, monkae saa asɛm yi: Obiara nni hɔ a ɔnam nʼankasa so bɛtumi akyerɛ Atwerɛsɛm mu nkɔmhyɛ ase.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Na nkɔmhyɛ biara mfiri onipa pɛ mu, na mmom, Honhom Kronkron tumi mu na nnipa ka asɛm a ɛfiri Onyankopɔn.
For no prophecy ever came by human will, but people spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
