2 Bitrus 1
1 Simon Bitrus kucin nin gono kadura in Yesus Kristi, uncindu kita na lenge na ina seru uyinnu sa uyenu ucine urume nan ghiruk, uyinnu sa uyenu nan nya katwa kacine Kutelle in Yesus Kristi.
Simon Peter, a bondservant and Apostle of Jesus Christ: To those to whom there has been allotted the same precious faith as that which is ours through the righteousness of our God and of our Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Na ubunu Kutelle so nan ghinu, na lissosin limang in yiru Kutelle kpin nan nya mine nnuzu in Yesu cikilari bit.
May more and more grace and peace be granted to you in a full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Nafo imon likara Kutelle vat in lai nin fiu Kutelle in niari unuzu in yiru Kutelle, ulenge na ana yicila nari nan nya ngigibg nin lidu licine.
seeing that His divine power has given us all things that are needful for life and godliness, through our knowledge of Him who has appealed to us by His own glorious perfections.
4 Nan nyan ni lele, ana niari ucinu nnuu un likara ucine. ana su nani ti nan so anan se nikop nan nya nidowo kitene, kimal na ina se usurtu nnuzu likara linanzang nin su nimon yii.
It is by means of these that He has granted us His precious and wondrous promises, in order that through them you may, one and all, become sharers in the very nature of God, having completely escaped the corruption which exists in the world through earthly cravings.
5 Bara imon irum ilele, shonon ati nsu nimon icine nan nyan in yinnu sa uyenu nin su katwa kacine nin yinu.
But for this very reason--adding, on your part, all earnestness-- along with your faith, manifest also a noble character: along with a noble character, knowledge;
6 Nan nya in yru seu uminu nati, nan nya nminu nati sen uteru nayi nan nyan teru nayi, yitan nin fiu Kutelle,
along with knowledge, self-control; along with self-control, power of endurance;
7 nan nya fiu Kutelle yitan nin su linuana, nan nya nsu linuana yitan nin su nati.
along with power of endurance, godliness; along with godliness, brotherly affection; and along with brotherly affection, love.
8 Asa ile imone di nan nya mine, idin kunju nan nya mine, na ima yitu are ba sa anan sali mumat nan nyan in yirun in cikilari Yesu Kristi.
If these things exist in you, and continually increase, they prevent your being either idle or unfruitful in advancing towards a full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Ama ulenge na a dira ilenge imone, adin yenju imon ile na idi susutari cas; adi udu. Ame nshawa ukusu nalapia kuse me.
For the man in whom they are lacking is blind and cannot see distant objects, in that he has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his old sins.
10 Bara nani, linuana, shonon ati it uyiculu mine nin feru mine durso nati mine. Asa idn ile imone, na ima tirzu ba.
For this reason, brethren, be all the more in earnest to make sure that God has called you and chosen you; for it is certain that so long as you practise these things, you will never stumble.
11 Bara nani mmari midya wari mma niminu nan nya kilari tigo. Ncikalari bite nin nan tucu Yesu Kristi. (aiōnios g166)
And so a triumphant admission into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will be freely granted to you. (aiōnios g166)
12 Bara nani, ko nin shi mma lizizin muni ile imone, in yiru iyiru inin, idi nin nakara nan nya kidegene nene.
For this reason I shall always persist in reminding you of these things, although you know them and are stedfast believers in truth which you already possess.
13 Ndin yenju kubi nda dert nzunzun minue nlizun minu nbelen nile imone, ligang lissosin ning nan nya kudanga kone.
But I think it right, so long as I remain in the body, my present dwelling-place, to arouse you by such reminders.
14 Bara meng yiru nine men ma kalu kadanga nghe, nafo na cikilari bite Yesus Kristi na dursoi.
For I know that the time for me to lay aside my body is now rapidly drawing near, even as our Lord Jesus Christ has revealed to me.
15 Meng ba su ligan. ....? nighe, bara anughe inan lizizino ilenge imone kimal nnyiu nighe.
So on every possible occasion I will also do my best to enable you to recall these things after my departure.
16 Bara na arik wa dortu ti beliu minu gegeme ba ubeleng likara nin dak ncikilari bite Yesu Kristi, ama ti wa ti iyizi nba in yenun gongong me.
For when we made known to you the power and Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, we were not eagerly following cleverly devised legends, but we had been eye-witnesses of His majesty.
17 Bara awa seru kiti Kutelle ucife uzazunu nin gongong na liwui wa nuzu kitene kani nin likara nin gongong li woro, “Ulengene usaun nighari, unan su nayi ning, ulenge na ayi ning di nin su me kang.”
He received honour and glory from God the Father, and out of the wondrous glory words such as these were spoken to Him, "This is My dearly-loved Son, in whom I take delight."
18 Ti wa lanza liwui tone na liwa nuzu kitene Kutelle: na tiwa di ligowe nan ghe kitene kikup liau.
And we ourselves heard these words come from Heaven, when we were with Him on the holy mountain.
19 Ti di nin lirun anabci ulenge na uso kidegen, ulenge na ucara i ceo unin umasin nafo ula na uta kanan nan nyan kitin sirti na kwuidinding nda fiini nkwuidinding nta nkanang nibinai mine.
And in the written word of prophecy we have something more permanent; to which you do well to pay attention--as to a lamp shining in a dimly-lighted place--until day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
20 Tun cizinan i yining ulele, nworu anabci ale nainyertine na udin nuzu nkpilizu nnan liru nin nin Kutellere litime ba.
But, above all, remember that no prophecy in Scripture will be found to have come from the prophet's own prompting;
21 Bara na amon anabci na dak unuzu nkpilizu unit ba, ama anitari Uruhu din dortu nin ghinu i pila ulirue i bele uning.
for never did any prophecy come by human will, but men sent by God spoke as they were impelled by the Holy Spirit.
