< 2 Petro 2 >

1 Manabii ba ubocho walowa bokanga kwa Baisraeli, na balimu wa uongo walowa isa kae kwinu. Kwa siri balowa kuapeya mapundisho ga ubocho nabo walowa kunkengama Ngwana ywaabapemeya. Wajiletya uharibifu ba haraka nnani yabe bene.
But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will privately bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 Bingi wapala ndela yabe ya oni na pitya bembe waikufuru ndela ya ukweli.
And many will follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth will be evil spoken of.
3 Kwa uchoyo walowa kubanyonya bandu pitya maneno ga ubocho. Hukumu yabe ichelewa kwaa, uharibifu walowa kubakengama.
And through covetousness they will with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
4 Maana Nnongo abaleka kwaa malaika balo batikengeuka. Ila abatombwile kuzimu ili batabilwe ni minyororo mpaka hukumu paiisile nnani yabe. (Tartaroō g5020)
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment; (Tartaroō g5020)
5 Wala Nnongo ativumiliya kwaa ulimwengu wa kunchogo. Ila, atimuhifadhi Nuhu, ywabile ni wito wa haki, pamope ni benge saba, muda wailekite garika nnani ya ulimwengu wabaasi.
And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth [person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
6 Nnongo atiihukumu miji ya Sodoma na Gomora kiasi cha kupangika majivu na uharibifu ili ibe mpwano kwa ajili ya baovu katika masoba gaisa.
And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned [them] with an overthrow, making [them] an example to those that afterwards should live ungodly lives.
7 Lakini paapangite lee, atinlopwa Lutu mundu ywa haki ywabile atihuzinishwa na tabia chafu za bakengamite kwaa sheria ya Nnongo.
And delivered just Lot, grieved with the habitual lewdness of the wicked:
8 Kwa mana yolo mundu wa haki, ywatama nabo masoba gatiitesa nafsi yake kwa ajili ya yalo yaagayowine na kugabona.
(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, grieved [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] unlawful deeds; )
9 Kwa eyo Ngwana atangite jinsi ya kubalopwa bandu bake wakati wa mateso na namna ya kubavumilia baovu kwa ajili ya hukumu katika lisoba lya mwisho.
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished:
10 Hakika woo nga ukweli kwa balo bayendelya tama katika tamaa ya yega yee na kugadharau mamlaka. Bandu ba jinsi yee babile ni ujasiri katika dhamiri yabe. Batiyogopa kwaa kubakufuru atukufu.
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they], self-willed; they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
11 Ingawa malaika babile ni uwezo na ngupu kuliko bandu, lakini baweza kwaa letya hukumu dhidi yabe kwa Ngwana.
Whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
12 Lakini aba banyama babile kwaa na akili batichengwa kwa asili ya kukamwa na kuangamizwa.
But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption:
13 Baumizwa kwa ujira ba mabou gabe. Mutwekati wote utama kwa anasa. Batijaa ubou na maovu. Upuraikia anasa za ubocho batisherehekea ni wenga.
And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as] they that count it pleasure to riot in the day-time. Spots [they are] and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
14 Minyo gabe yatipunikwa na umalaya; batosheka kwaa panga sambi. Ubalaghai na kubatombwa baumini achunu katika sambi. Babile na mioyo yatijaa tamaa, ni bana balaanilwe.
Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: they have a heart exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
15 Bailekite ndela ya ukweli. Batitomboka na kuikengama ndela ya Balaam mwana wa Beori, ywapenda kupata malipo ga udhalimu.
Who have forsaken the right way, and gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
16 Lakini ywakanikiwa kwa ajili ya ukosaji wake. Mbonda ywabile bubu alongela kwa lilobe lya bandu, atiukenga uchizi ba nabii.
But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice, forbad the madness of the prophet.
17 Bandu aba ni kati chemichemi ibile kwaa na mase. Ni kati maunde galowa tolwa ni mbepo. Liunde zito lyatihifadhiwa kwa ajili yabe. (questioned)
These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. (questioned)
18 Ulongela kwa majipuno matupu. Ubatombwa bandu kwa tamaa ya yega. Ubalaghai bandu bajaribia kutila babo batama katika ukosaji.
For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness, those that had quite escaped from them who live in error.
19 Ubaahidi bandu uhuru muda wabe bene ni amanda ba sambi ya ufisadi. Mana mundu upangwa kuba mmanda wa chelo chamtawala.
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whom a man is overcome, by the same is he brought into bondage.
20 Ywembe ywajiepushae ni uchafu ba ulimwengu kwa kutumia maarifa ga Ngwana na mkochopoli Yesu Kristo, na boka po atikerebukia uchapu woo kae, hali yake upangika inoite kwaa kuliko yelo ya mwanzo.
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
21 Inoite bandu kati abo baitangite kwaa ndela ya haki kuliko kuitanga na boka po kuzileka kae amri takatifu zabapeilwe.
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22 Mithali yee huwa na ukweli kwabe.”mapwa ukulebukiya matapishi gabe. Ngobe ywatioshwa ukerebuka kae mu'matope.
But it hath happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and, The sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.
