< 2 Peter 3 >

1 This is now, beloved, the second letter that I have written to you; and in both of them I stir up your sincere mind by reminding you
Eshi ehusimbila awe, lugano elikalata elya bhele eliebhoshe katika enjele,
2 that you should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets and the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior,
ili uweze akomboshe amazu gagayagwilwe sasele naakowa ahwinza nashi endamilo ezya Gosi wetu nufyozi ashilile atwumwa.
3 knowing this first, that in the last days mockers will come, walking after their own lusts
Omanye eli elyahwandile, huje ananzi bhahwiza esiku ezya mwisho bhahwibagaye namwe, bhabhalaga sabhahwaza amadala gabho bhibho.
4 and saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”
Na whaigauli alulagano lwa wele? Aise bhetu bhafwiye ila evintu vyonti vyali esho afume huimwanzo na bhombaga.
5 For they willfully forget that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water by the word of God,
Bhahwilola ahwene aje ensi ne mwanya vya handile afumilane na menze ashilile amenze ge mwaha nyene, hwi izu lya Ngolobhe,
6 by which means the world that existed then, being overflowed with water, perished.
na aje ashilile izu lyakwe na menze gaibho nsii eshipindi eshu, yaibha ememile amenze, yananchishe.
7 But the heavens that exist now and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
Ila esalezi emwanya nensi zitunzilwe hwizu lyelyo lyelyo kwa ajili isiku elyalongwe ne nfwa ya wantu bhasebhali no Ngolobhe.
8 But don’t forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Ene sewezizye aziongozyewe enongwa yaho, wantu mwemwe isiku limohwa Ngolobhe sawa namaha elfu moja na maha elfu sawa ni siku limo.
9 The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that anyone should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Sio aje Ongolobhe abhomba wolowolo atimizye olulagano, nanshi shabhasebhelela aje omwene vumilivu hulimwe omwene sagaziliha aje omomo ateje lakini aziliha aje kila muntu apate atubu.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat; and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
Japokuwa isiku lya Ngolobhe lihwenza na omwibha, emwanya yaishila lela hu mwoto. Eshi ne vintu vyonti vyavihweli vyaibhehwa wazi.
11 Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed like this, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Afuatanaje evintu vyonti vyailongolela hwi idala eli, aje waibha muntu we namna wele okhale shizelu na maisha geshi Ngolobhe.
12 looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, which will cause the burning heavens to be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
Ehwanziwa amanye haraka olwenzelo lwi siku lya Ngolobhe Isiku elyo emwanya yailongolela hu mwoto nentu vyailongolela hu mwoto. Nentu vyai longolela ni lyoto ikhali.
13 But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
Ila alengane no lulagano lwakwe tigolela emwanya empya nensi empya, ambabho whe lyoli bhaikhala.
14 Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for these things, be diligent to be found in peace, without defect and blameless in his sight.
Esho bhamwetu afwatane naje tisobheye evintu evi, hwitahidi abhene sinte na lalamishe abhe ne amani pamo no mwene.
15 Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,
Oyenyaje ou vumilivu wa Ngolobhe wetu ashilile owokovu, nashi owamwetu okolo wetu o Paulo, shabhandishie amwe, ashilile ne nshibhi yatapewilwe.
16 as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
O Paulo ayanga ego gonti mubarua yakwe, huli evintu evikhome avyelewe awantu wasebhali nenshinshi no uimara wavinankenye evintu evyo, nanshi shabhabhomba hwizu. Abhalile enfwa yabho.
17 You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware, lest being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
Esho, wamwetu afutanaje mgamenye ego hwilondaji mwemwe waganje watezye ni lenika lya khopezi natezye ougolosu wenyu.
18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Ila mkule hu neema nenjo ya Ngolobhe omwokozi oYesu kristi. Eshi oumwamu uli nomwene hata salezi na wila wila. Amina. (aiōn g165)
