< 2 Pedro 2 >

1 Baina propheta falsuac-ere içan dirade populuaren artean, çuen artean-ere doctor falsuac içanen diraden beçala, ceinéc secretuqui sar eraciren baitituzte perditionetaco sectác: eta hec redemitu dituen Iauna vkaturen baituté, bere buruén gainera perditione lasterra erekarten duqueitelaric.
But there were false prophets also in the nation, just as there will be false teachers among you, people who will secretly introduce ruinous divisions, disowning even the Lord who bought them, and bringing speedy ruin on themselves.
2 Eta anhitz iarreiquiren çaye hayén insolentiey: ceineçaz eguiazco bidea blasphematurén baita.
There will be many, too, who will follow their licentious courses, and cause the way of the truth to be maligned.
3 Halaco maneraz non auaritiaz enganiotaco hitzez merkatalgoa çueçaz eguinen baituqueite: ceinén gainera condemnationeac ia aspaldidanic ezpaitu berancen, eta ceinén perditionea ezpaitatza lo.
In their covetousness they will try to make you a source of profit by their fabrications; but for a long time past their sentence has not been standing idle, nor their ruin slumbering.
4 Ecen baldin Iaincoac Aingueru bekatu eguin vkan dutenac guppida vkan ezpaditu: baina ilhundurataco cadenéz abysmaturic liuratu vkan ditu, iudicioco reseruaturic. (Tartaroō g5020)
Remember, God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them down to Tartarus, and consigned them to caverns of darkness, to be kept under guard for judgment. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 Eta lehenagoco mundua eztu guppida vkan, baina Noe, iustitia trompettaria bera çortzigarren beguiratu vkan du, dilubioa gaichtoen mundura erekarriric.
Nor did he spare the world of old; though he preserved Noah, the preacher of righteousness, and seven others, when he brought a flood on the godless world.
6 Eta Sodomaco eta Gomorrhaco ciuitateac ilhaunduric subuersionetara condemnatu vkan ditu, eta eguin vkan du exemplu liraden gaichtoqui vici liradenén.
He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and reduced them to ashes, holding them up as a warning to the godless of what was in store for them;
7 Eta Lot iustoa abominablén conuersatione dissolutionezcoaz fatigatua deliuratu vkan du.
but he rescued righteous Lot, whose heart was vexed by the wanton licentiousness of his neighbors;
8 (Ecen iusto hunec hayén artean habitatzen celaric ikustez eta ençutez egunetic egunera tormentatzen çuen bere bihotz iustoa, hayen obra gaichtoén causaz)
for, seeing and hearing what he did, as he lived his righteous life among them, day after day, Lot’s righteous soul was tortured by their wicked doings.
9 Badaqui Iaunac fidelén tentationetaric deliuratzen: eta iniustoén iudicioco eguneco tormentatu diradençát reseruatzen:
The Lord, therefore, knows how to deliver the pious from temptation, and to keep the wicked, who are even now suffering punishment, in readiness for ‘the day of judgment’ –
10 Eta principalqui haraguiari darreitzala, guthicia satsutara erorten diradenén eta guehientassuna menospreciatzen dutenén: hec audacioso eta bere buruéz pagu içanez, eztirade beldur dignitatéz gaizqui minçatzera.
especially those who, following the promptings of their lower nature, indulge their polluting passions and despise all control. Audacious and self-willed, they feel no awe of the celestial beings, maligning them,
11 Aingueruéc, indarrez eta puissançaz handiago badirade-ere, eztute hayén contra Iaunaren aitzinean gaitzerraitezco sententiaric emaiten.
even where angels, though excelling them in strength and power, do not bring against them a malignant charge before the Lord.
12 Baina hauc, animal brutal bere sensualitateari darreitzanac beçala, hatzamaiteco eta deseguiteco eguinac dirade, aditzen eztituzten gauçác vituperatzen dituztela, bere corruptione beraz deseguinen dirade:
These people, however, like animals without reason, intended by nature to be caught and killed – these people, I say, malign those of whom they know nothing, and will assuredly perish through their own corruption,
13 Recebitzen dutela iniustitiazco saria, voluptatetan estimatzen dituztela egun orozco delicioac, thatchác eta maculác, dostatzen diradela bere enganioetan çuequin banquetatuz.
suffering themselves, as the penalty for the suffering that they have inflicted. They think that pleasure consists in the self-indulgence of the moment. They are a stain and a disgrace, indulging, as they do, in their wanton revelry, even while joining you at your feasts.
14 Beguiac adulterioz betheac dituztela, eta bekatu eguitetic guelditzen eztaquitela, arima inconstantac bazcatzen dituztela, bihotza auaritiatara exercitatua dutela, maledictionezco haour diradela:
They have eyes only for adulteresses, eyes never tired of sin; they entice weak souls; their minds are trained to covet; they live under a curse.
15 Bide çucena vtziric errebelatu içan dirade, Balaam Bosoren semearen bideari iarreiqui içanic, ceinec iniquitatezco sariari on eritzi baitzaraucan: eta bere iniquitateaz vençutu içan cen:
Leaving the straight road, they have gone astray and followed in the steps of Balaam, the son of Beor, who set his heart on the reward for wrongdoing,
16 Ecen asto eme vztarrico batec voz humanoz minçaturic reprimi ceçan Prophetaren frenesiá.
but was rebuked for his offense. A dumb animal spoke with a human voice, and checked the prophet’s madness.
17 Hauc dirade ithurri vr gabeac, hodey haice buhumbaz erabiliac, eta ilhumbezco lanhoa seculacotz beguiratzen çaye. (questioned)
These people are like springs without water, or mists driven before a gale; and for them the blackest darkness has been reserved.
18 Ecen vanitatezco propos guciz arrogantac pronuntiatzen dituztela bazcatzen dituzté haraguiaren guthiciéz eta insolentiéz, erroretan conuersatzen dutenetaric eguiazqui ihes eguin çutenac:
With boastful and foolish talk, they appeal to the passions of people’s lower nature, and, by their profligacy, entice those who are just escaping from the people who live such misguided lives.
19 Libertate hæy promettatuz berac corruptionearen sclabo diradelaric, ecen norçaz nehor vençutu içan baita, hura haren sclabo eguin içan da.
They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves to corrupt habits; for a person is the slave of anything to which they give way.
20 Ecen baldin munduco satsutassunetaric retiratu diraden ondoan Iesus Christ Iaunaren eta Saluadorearen eçagutzeaz, guciagatic-ere berriz hetan nahassiric vençut baditéz, hayén azquen conditionea lehena baino gaichtoago eguin içan da.
If, after having escaped the polluting influences of the world, through knowing our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, people are again entangled in them, and give way to them, their last state has become worse than their first.
21 Ecen hobe vkan çuqueiten iustitiazco bidea ez lutén eçagutu, ecen ez eçaguturic hura, eman içan çayen manamendu saindutic guibeleratzea:
It would, indeed, have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn away from the holy command delivered to them.
22 Baina hæy heldu içan çaye prouerbio eguiazcoz erraiten ohi dena, Ora itzuli içan da bere issurtze proprira: eta, Ahardi ikucia itzuli içan da istilera iraulzcatzera.
In their case is seen the truth of the proverb – ‘A dog returns to what it has vomited’ and ‘A sow after washing to her wallowing-place in the mud.’
