2 Peter 1
1 Simoni Peteru, ìránṣẹ́ àti aposteli Jesu Kristi, Sí àwọn tí ó gba irú iyebíye ìgbàgbọ́ kan náà pẹ̀lú wá nínú òdodo Ọlọ́run wa àti ti Jesu Kristi Olùgbàlà:
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 Kí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ àti àlàáfíà máa bí sí i fún yín nínú ìmọ̀ Ọlọ́run àti ti Jesu Olúwa wa.
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Bí agbára rẹ̀ bí Ọlọ́run ti fún wa ní ohun gbogbo tí a nílò fún ṣe ti ìyè àti ti ìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run, nípa ìmọ̀ ẹni tí ó pè wá nípa Ògo àti ìṣeun rẹ̀.
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 Nípa èyí tí ó fi àwọn ìlérí rẹ̀ tí ó tóbi púpọ̀ tí ó ṣe iyebíye fún wa: pé nípa ìwọ̀nyí ni kí ẹ̀yin lè di alábápín nínú àbùdá ti Ọlọ́run, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá ti yọ kúrò nínú ìbàjẹ́ tí ó ń bẹ nínú ayé nípa ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́.
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 Àti nítorí ìdí èyí, ẹ máa ṣe àìsimi gbogbo, ẹ fi ìwà rere kún ìgbàgbọ́, àti ìmọ̀ kún ìwà rere;
Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 àti àìrékọjá kún ìmọ̀; àti sùúrù kún àìrékọjá; àti ìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run kún sùúrù.
and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
7 Àti ìfẹ́ ọmọnìkejì kún ìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run; àti ìfẹ́ni kún ìfẹ́ ọmọnìkejì.
and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Nítorí bí ẹ̀yin bá ní nǹkan wọ̀nyí tí wọ́n bá sì pọ̀, wọn kì yóò jẹ́ kí ẹ ṣe ọ̀lẹ tàbí aláìléso nínú ìmọ̀ Olúwa wa Jesu Kristi.
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 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá ṣe aláìní nǹkan wọ̀nyí, kò lè ríran ní òkèèrè, ó fọjú, ó sì ti gbàgbé pé a ti wẹ òun nù kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ àtijọ́.
For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Nítorí náà, ará ẹ túbọ̀ máa ṣe àìsimi láti sọ ìpè àti yíyàn yín di dájúdájú, nítorí bí ẹ̀yin bá ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ẹ̀yin kì yóò ṣubú.
Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 Nítorí báyìí ni a ó pèsè fún yín lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ láti wọ ìjọba àìnípẹ̀kun ti Olúwa àti Olùgbàlà wa Jesu Kristi. (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 Nítorí náà, èmi ó máa rán yin létí àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí nígbà gbogbo, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ẹ̀yin ti mọ̀ wọ́n, tí ẹsẹ̀ yín sì múlẹ̀ nínú òtítọ́ tí ẹ ní báyìí.
Therefore I will be ready always to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Èmi sì rò pé ó tọ́ láti máa mú wọn wá sí ìrántí yín, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí èmí ba ń bẹ nínú àgọ́ ara yìí.
I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 Bí èmi ti mọ̀ pé, bíbọ́ àgọ́ ara mi yìí sílẹ̀ kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀, àní, bí Olúwa wa Jesu Kristi ti fihàn mí.
knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Èmi ó sì máa ṣaápọn pẹ̀lú, kí ẹ̀yin lè máa rántí nǹkan wọ̀nyí nígbà gbogbo lẹ́yìn ikú mi.
Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Nítorí kì í ṣe bí ẹni tí ó ń tọ ìtàn asán lẹ́yìn tí a fi ọgbọ́nkọ́gbọ́n là sílẹ̀, nígbà tí àwa sọ fún yín ní ti agbára àti wíwá Jesu Kristi Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n ẹlẹ́rìí ọláńlá rẹ̀ ni àwa jẹ́.
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 Nítorí tí Ó gba ọlá àti ògo láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run Baba, nígbà tí irú ohùn yìí fọ̀ sí i láti inú ògo ńlá náà wá pé, “Èyí ni àyànfẹ́ ọmọ mi, ẹni tí inú mi dùn sí gidigidi.”
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 Àwa pẹ̀lú sì gbọ́ ohun yìí tí ó ti ọ̀run wá nígbà tí àwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ní orí òkè mímọ́ náà.
We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Àwa sì ní ìfẹsẹ̀múlẹ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn wòlíì dunjúdunjú sí i, èyí tí ó yẹ kí ẹ kíyèsi gẹ́gẹ́ bí fìtílà tó ń mọ́lẹ̀ níbi tí òkùnkùn gbé wà, títí ilẹ̀ yóò fi mọ́, tí ìràwọ̀ òwúrọ̀ yóò sì yọ lọ́kàn yín.
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 Ju gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ, kí ẹ ní òye yìí pé kò sí àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ìwé mímọ́ kankan tí ó wáyé nípa ìtumọ̀ wòlíì fún rara rẹ̀.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Nítorí àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ kan kò ti ipá ìfẹ́ ènìyàn wá rí; ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn ń sọ̀rọ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run bí a ti ń darí wọn láti ọwọ́ Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ wá.
For no prophecy ever came by human will, but people spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
