2 Pjetrit 2
1 Por ka pasur edhe profetë të rremë midis popullit, ashtu si do të ketë midis jush mësues të rremë, të cilët do të fusin fshehurazi herezi shkatërruese dhe, duke mohuar Zotërinë që i bleu ata, do të tërheqin mbi vete një shkatërrim të shpejtë.
Just like there were false prophets among the [Israeli] people [long ago], so there will also be teachers who teach false [things] among you. They will enter [your congregations] without you realizing [what/who they are], and they will [spiritually] injure some people by what they teach. Specifically, these teachers will even deny [that] the Lord [Jesus died to] pay [for the guilt of our sins]. As a result, they will soon destroy themselves [spiritually, and God will also punish them].
2 Dhe shumë vetë do të ndjekin doktrina shkatërruese të tyre dhe për shkak të tyre udha e së vërtetës do të shahet.
And many [people] will behave in an extremely immoral manner, imitating the extremely immoral way [these teachers who teach false things] behave. As a result, [unbelievers] will (discredit the true message/say the true message is false).
3 Dhe në lakminë e tyre do t’ju shfrytëzojnë me fjalë të shpifura, por ndëshkimi i tyre që moti nuk vonon dhe shkatërrimi i tyre nuk po dremit.
Because [the teachers of false teaching] want a lot of things that other people have, [they think that] by telling you stories that they themselves have (made up/invented), they will get money from you. [God decided] long ago [that he would] punish them, and he has not fallen asleep [LIT]! [He will certainly destroy them]!
4 Sepse, në qoftë se Perëndia nuk i kurseu ëngjëjt që mëkatuan, por i hodhi në tartar të lidhur me pranga terri që të ruhen për gjyq; (Tartaroō g5020)
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 dhe nuk kurseu botën e lashtë, por shpëtoi bashkë me shtatë të tjerë Noeun, predikues të drejtësisë, kur solli përmbytjen mbi botën e të pabesëve,
He also got rid of [LIT] [the people who lived in] [MTY] the world long ago. He saved [only] eight of them, including Noah, who was a righteous preacher. God saved them when he destroyed in a flood [all] (the ungodly people/the people whose lives were not pleasing to him) [who were living then].
6 edhe dënoi me shkatërrim qytetet e Sodomës dhe të Gomorës, duke i bërë hi, dhe i bëri shëmbull për ata që në të ardhmen do të jetonin pabesisht,
He also condemned Sodom and Gomorrah [cities]; that is, he destroyed them by burning them completely to ashes. [By doing that] he gave a warning to those who afterwards would live in (an ungodly way/a way that is displeasing to him).
7 dhe e liroi të drejtin Lot, që helmohej nga sjellja imorale e këtyre të çoroditurve
But he rescued [Abraham’s nephew], Lot, who was a righteous [man. Lot] was (greatly distressed/very sad) because the people [in Sodom] were doing very immoral things.
8 (sepse ky i drejtë banonte në mes tyre e mundonte për ditë shpirtin e tij të drejtë duke shikuar dhe duke dëgjuar veprat e tyre të poshtra),
That righteous [man’s] soul (was tormented/suffered great agony) day after day because he saw and heard those wicked people behave in a very lawless/wicked [manner when he was] living among them.
9 Zoti di t’i shpëtojë nga tundimi të perëndishmit dhe t’i ruajë të padrejtët që të ndëshkohen ditën e gjyqit,
And since the Lord God [rescued Lot, you can be sure that] he knows how to rescue (other godly people/people whose lives please him) from their sufferings, and [he is able] to preserve (ungodly [people/people whose lives do not please him]), [whom he has started to] punish even now, until the time when he will [finish judging them and punish] them.
10 sidomos ata që shkojnë pas mishit në lakminë e fëlliqësisë dhe e përbuzin pushtetin. Ata janë të paturpshëm, arrogant dhe nuk druajnë të blasfemojnë dinjitetet;
[He will punish especially severely] those [ungodly teachers who teach false things] who do the things that their self-directed nature desires, things that (defile them/cause them to be completely impure). Those [teachers of false teachings] despise [all beings who] rule [over them]. 2 Peter 2:10d-16 Because [those teachers of false doctrines are] extremely arrogant/proud [DOU], they (are not afraid to insult/boldly speak evil about) glorious beings [in heaven] (OR, glorious/wonderful beings [who rule over people]).
11 ndërsa engjëjt, që janë më të lartë për nga forca e nga fuqia, nuk sjellin kundër atyre gjykime fyese përpara Zotit.
In contrast, angels do not insult [those teachers] when those teachers accuse the angels [of blasphemy] while the Lord God is watching, even though the angels are much more powerful [DOU] [than the teachers of false doctrines].
12 Por këta, si shtazë pa mend, të lindura nga natyra që të kapen dhe të shkatërrohen, flasin keq për gjërat që nuk i dinë dhe do të asgjësohen në prishjen e tyre, duke marrë kështu shpërblimin e paudhësisë së tyre.
Because those [teachers of false doctrines are] like animals that cannot think [as humans do] [DOU], they say evil things about [spiritual] things which they know nothing about. [As a result], God will destroy them like [people] destroy [animals], [animals] that are born only in order to be hunted and killed {in order that [people] should hunt and kill them}.
13 Ata e konsiderojnë kënaqësi ta çojnë ditën ndër qejfe; janë njolla dhe fëlliqësi, dhe lëshohen pas mashtrimeve të tyre, kur marrin pjesë në gostitë tuaja.
God will punish [those teachers] in return for the unrighteous actions/things that they have done. They even like (to carouse/to drink and revel noisily) in the daytime [as well as at night]. And as they indulge/enjoy themselves just like they want to while they are feasting with you, they cause you to become impure, [as] [MET] stains and blotches [DOU] [ruin a clean garment].
14 Sytë i kanë plot me kurorëshkelje dhe nuk pushojnë së mëkatuari; mashtrojnë shpirtrat e paqëndrueshëm, kanë zemër të stërvitur në lakmime, dhe janë bij mallkimi.
They [want to commit] [MTY] adultery [with every woman] whom they look at. They never stop seeking opportunities to sin. They entice/persuade those who are [spiritually] unstable [to join them in doing the sinful things that they do]. [Because of] their ever-increasing (greed/desire to have more and more things), they are doomed [to eternal punishment].
15 Ata, pasi e lanë udhën e drejtë, devijuan duke ndjekur udhën e Balaamit, birit të Beorit, i cili e deshi pagën e paudhësisë,
They have (rejected good moral standards/quit doing what everyone knows is right). They have imitated [what the prophet] Balaam, the son of Bosor, [did long ago]. He, [acting very] unrighteously, wanted [the enemies of the Jews] to pay him if he [asked God] ([to curse/to do bad thing to]) [the Jews].
16 por u qortua për shkeljen e tij: një kafshë barre pa gojë, duke folur me zë njeriu, e ndaloi marrëzinë e profetit.
But God rebuked him for having done that which was wrong [and for] behaving very foolishly. And even though donkeys do not speak, [God used] a donkey to hinder Balaam [by enabling it to] speak to him with a human voice.
17 Këta janë burime pa ujë, re që shtyhen nga furtuna, të cilëve u rezervohet errësira e territ përjetë. (questioned)
These [teachers who each false things mislead/deceive people by promising what they cannot do], as [MET] dried-up springs [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect to get water from them]. They [mislead/deceive people] [MET] just like clouds that are blown along by strong winds [mislead/deceive people by causing them to expect rain, but no rain falls. Therefore], God has reserved the darkness of hell [for those teachers of false doctrines]. (questioned)
18 Sepse duke mbajtur ligjërata jashtë mase të fryra dhe të kota bëjnë për vete, me anë të pasioneve të mishit dhe të paturpësisë, ata që me të vërtetë kishin shpëtuar nga ata që jetojnë në gabim;
By boasting proudly as they make speeches that are worthless, they entice people who have recently [become believers and] have stopped doing the things that wicked people do. Urged on by their self-directed nature, they entice them [into sin] by encouraging them to [do] evil things.
19 ndërsa u premtojnë atyre liri, ata vetë janë skllevër të prishjes, sepse një bëhet skllav i atij që e mundi.
[The false teachers] tell people that they are free [to do whatever they want to do, even though] they themselves are [like] slaves [MET] [because their own self-directed nature forces them to do] sinful things. [Think about these well-known words: “Whenever a person is controlled by something] {[something controls a person]}, [it is as though] that person has become a slave of what controls him.”
20 Sepse ata që shpëtuan nga ndyrësitë e botës me anë të njohjes së Zotit dhe Shpëtimtarit Jezu Krisht, nëse përsëri ngatërrohen nga këto dhe munden, gjendja e tyre e fundit është më e keqe se e para.
Those [who teach false truths] learned about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As a result, they stopped doing those things that (defile [people/cause people to become impure]) [spiritually]. Since they have begun to do [those evil things again], with the result that they are unable to stop doing them, they are in a worse condition than [they were in before they knew Jesus Christ].
21 Sepse do të qe më mirë për ta të mos e kishin njohur udhën e drejtësisë, se sa, pasi e njohën, t’ia kthejnë shpinën urdhërimit të shenjtë që u qe dhënë.
[Because God will severely punish them], it would have been better for them if they had never known what it means to live in a righteous way. It is too bad that although they knew [how to live in a righteous way], they stopped doing the things that God commanded people to do, the things that [were] taught to them ([by us apostles/by Christ]) {that ([we apostles/Christ]) taught to them}.
22 Por atyre u ndodhi ç’ka thotë një fjalë e urtë e vërtetë: “Qeni u kthye në të vjellat e veta”, dhe “dosa e larë u kthye të zhgërryhet në llucë”.
[The way they are behaving again] is just like (the proverbs/what people often say): [They are like] dogs that return to [eat] their vomit, and [they are like] pigs that have been washed and then roll [again] in the mud.
