2 Bitrus 2
1 Anan liru nin Kutelle an kinuu wa dak Israila a anan dursuzu kiti kinu ma dak kiti mine. Ima dak nin dursuzu un wultunu kiti likire, iming ma nari cikilare na ana seru nani. Inung dsin liru nnin kimolo nati mine dedei.
But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly put forward wrong teachings for your destruction, even turning away from the Lord who gave himself for them; whose destruction will come quickly, and they themselves will be the cause of it.
2 Grandang ma dofunu usu nibinai mine, barainughe ima zoguzu libo kidegene.
And a great number will go with them in their evil ways, through whom the true way will have a bad name.
3 Bara usu nati mine ima ti nkoli nin ghinu ndas uzuzun nliru kinu mine. Na ushara mine ma yiru kubi pit ba; na uwutunu mine ma yitu hem ba.
And in their desire for profit they will come to you with words of deceit, like traders doing business in souls: whose punishment has been ready for a long time and their destruction is watching for them.
4 Ndafo na kutalk wa ceo litai unono kadura mae alenge na iwa ti kulapi ba, ndafo awa na tunari nan nya kukunsa ligang, i ceo nanii ku nin ninyaag nan nya sirti isu uca nshara. (Tartaroō g5020)
For if God did not have pity for the angels who did evil, but sent them down into hell, to be kept in chains of eternal night till they were judged; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 ndafo na awa ceo uyi uyi unbburne ba, ama awa tucu Nuhu ku unan belun nbeleng katwa kacine ligowe nin na nit kuzor amini wa dak nin fibark nmyen in yii kulapi.
And did not have mercy on the world which then was, but only kept safe Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he let loose the waters over the world of the evil-doers;
6 A mini wa juju nipinpin Sodom nin Gomora ni lwa utong, a mini wa ceo nani nca nkul ios imon yenju na udin cinu dak kiti na nan sali fiu Kutelle.
And sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, burning them up with fire as an example to those whose way of life might in the future be unpleasing to him;
7 Amini wa tucu unan katwa kacine, ulenge na awa sessu ufizu nayi ko kome kubi bara adadu ananzang na nan sli fiu Kutelle nin kuna niyizi.
And kept safe Lot, the upright man, who was deeply troubled by the unclean life of the evil-doers
8 Bara katwa nsalu fiu Kutelle mine na unan katwa ka cine na yenje alanza ko lome liyiri a sossino nan nya mine w a lanza fisudu katwa kacine me ukul.
(Because the soul of that upright man living among them was pained from day to day by seeing and hearing their crimes):
9 Cikilare yiru ulenge na ama tucu anan fiu me nan nya ndumunuzu mine, a yiro kitin ciu nanit alenge na idi nin katwa kacine ba bar44a uniu lirin nshara.
The Lord is able to keep the upright safe in the time of testing, and to keep evil-doers under punishment till the day of judging;
10 Ulengene ma sossin kidegene kiti na lenge na idin lin hun nin likara li nanzang nin tik nidowo ina ni nari tigo. Idi nin nayi akone nin nilaza nati mine. Na idin lanzaq fiu izogo sa ima su untigo uliuru ba.
But specially those who go after the unclean desires of the flesh, and make sport of authority. Ready to take chances, uncontrolled, they have no fear of saying evil of those in high places:
11 Nono kadura Kutelle di nin nakara adya nin yiru ikafin anit vat, ama na idin dassu nin shara tizogo kitene mine kitin cikilare ba.
Though the angels, who are greater in strength and power, do not make use of violent language against them before the Lord.
12 Ama anit nan kpiizu nafo inawan tene ima na kye nani bara ikifizo i nanzari. Na i yiru imong ile na ijogo ba. Ima nanzu nani.
But these men, like beasts without reason, whose natural use is to be taken and put to death, crying out against things of which they have no knowledge, will undergo that same destruction which they are designing for others;
13 ima lanzu ukul bara uduk likara linanzang mine. Idin su lissosin nlanzu mmang nin liring. Idi nin na lap a akura amanzang. Idin lanzu mmang nadu kinnu mine i wa din sonu nfunu ninfi.
For the evil which overtakes them is the reward of their evil-doing: such men take their pleasure in the delights of the flesh even in the daytime; they are like the marks of a disease, like poisoned wounds among you, feasting together with you in joy;
14 Iyizi mine kulun nin su na wani nfunu; na kulapi din batizunu nani ba. Idi wunu anan sali nakara nibinai udu su katwa kananjang, nibinai mine nmali se udursuzu bara kuna niyizi, nono nti nnuu.
Having eyes full of evil desire, never having enough of sin; turning feeble souls out of the true way; they are children of cursing, whose hearts are well used to bitter envy;
15 ina filing libo licine. Ina wulu inani na dofin libo in Balamu, usaun Basura, ulenge na awa di nin su a seru uduk kitene nfanu me.
Turning out of the true way, they have gone wandering in error, after the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who was pleased to take payment for wrongdoing;
16 Amini wa se uboriu niyizi kitene nfanu me. kajaki nsalin liru kani wa su uliru nin liwui nnit uni wa Yissa unan liru nin nuu Kutelle tik.
But his wrongdoing was pointed out to him: an ass, talking with a man's voice, put a stop to the error of the prophet.
17 Anit alele masin igunanghari sa nmyen. Imasin awutari na ufunu nwesse. Nsirti mi bibitari ina ceo bara inunghe. (questioned)
These are fountains without water, and mists before a driving storm; for whom the eternal night is kept in store. (questioned)
18 Idi su uliru nin tikunan nati tiham. Idin wunu anit nin tok nidowo. Idin anit ale na ipizira isurto nacara na lenge na issosin nan nya ntanu.
For with high-sounding false words, making use of the attraction of unclean desires of the flesh, they get into their power those newly made free from those who are living in error;
19 Idin su nani uliru nworu ima lissosin li taop, ama inung ati mine acin nitwa ni nanzanghari. Bara unit kucin nimon ilenge na ileo likara nere.
Saying that they will be free, while they themselves are the servants of destruction; because whatever gets the better of a man makes a servant of him.
20 Ulenge na a surto nacara nnanu in yii nnuzun in yiru nakilari nin nan tucu Yisa Kristi, amini kuri a kpilla nan nya nnanu une tutung, uso nani unanu unanzang ule na nkatin un burne.
For if, after they have got free from the unclean things of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again taken in the net and overcome, their last condition is worse than their first.
21 Uwa kutunu nani nworu na iwa ma na yinin libo katwa kacine nworu na iwa ma na yinin libo katwa kacine nworu iyinin i kura i kpilya timuro mine kiti nduka ulau ule na iwa nani.
For it would have been better for them to have had no knowledge of the way of righteousness, than to go back again from the holy law which was given to them, after having knowledge of it.
22 Ule uliru tigoldoe kidegenere kiti mine: “Ka kau nkpilla kiti tilozo me. kuladu ko na isalsuna kunin nkpillla nan nya mboro.”
They are an example of that true saying, The dog has gone back to the food it had put out, and the pig which had been washed to its rolling in the dirty earth.
