2 Peter 1
1 Jesuh Khrih kah sal neh caeltueih Simon Peter loh, tangnah dongah mamih kah Pathen neh khangkung Jesuh Khrih kah duengnah, mamih neh vantlip la aka yo rhoek taengah kan yaak sak.
Simeon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who obtained an equally precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
2 Nangmih Lungvatnah neh ngaimongnah tah Pathen neh mamih boeipa Jesuh mingnah lamloh nangmih taengah ping saeh.
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the acknowledgment of God and of Jesus our Lord!
3 Amah thaomnah Pathen kah a tarhing ah hingnah neh hingcimnah ham, a thangpomnah neh boethen dongah mamih aka khue te mingnah lamloh, mamih taengah a cungkuem m'paek coeng.
As His divine power has given to us all things pertaining to life and piety, through the acknowledgment of Him who called us through glory and virtue,
4 Te lamlong ni a phu aka tlo tih aka lenkoek olkhueh te mamih m'paek. Te daengah ni he rhoek lamloh Pathen kah a coengnah kah a pueipo, Diklai hoehhamnah dongkah hmawnnah neh na loeih la na om eh.
through which the most great and precious promises have been given to us, that through these you may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption [and] lust in the world.
5 He dongah thahluenah te boeih rhoih uh. Khoboethen te na tangnah neh, mingnah te khoboethen neh,
And [for] this same [reason] also, having brought in all diligence, supplement your faith with virtue, and with virtue—knowledge,
6 mingnah te kuemsuemnah neh, kuemsuemnah te uehnah neh, uehnah te hingcimnah neh,
and with knowledge—self-control, and with self-control—endurance, and with endurance—piety,
7 hingcimnah te khaw manuca lungnah neh, manuca lungnah te khaw lungnah neh thap uh.
and with piety—brotherly kindness, and with brotherly kindness—love;
8 He rhoek tah nangmih ah om tih a pungtai dongah mamih boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah mingnah dongah palyal pawt tih a tlongtlai n'khueh moenih.
for these things being in you and abounding, make [you] neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ,
9 He rhoek neh aka om pawt te tah mikdael la om tih a hmuh toi. A tholh dingrhae vaengkah cimcaihnah te hnilhnah a khueh.
for he with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins;
10 Te dongah, manuca rhoek, nangmih kah khuenah neh tueknah te saii hamla khangmai la haam uh lah. Te te aka saii tah vaikhat khaw na paloe loengloeng mahpawh.
therefore, rather, brothers, be diligent to make steadfast your calling and [divine] selection, for doing these things you may never stumble;
11 Te daengah ni mamih Boeipa neh Khangkung Jesuh Khrih kah dungyan ram la kunnah te nangmih ham kodam la han thap eh. (aiōnios g166)
in this way the entrance into the continuous kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly supplemented to you. (aiōnios g166)
12 Te dongah hekah a kawng he na ming uh tih, oltak dongah na om uh te cawt duel cakhaw nangmih te a thoelh ham ka cai taitu.
Therefore, I will always be ready to remind you about these things, although you have known [them] and have been established in the present truth,
13 Tahae kah rhaehim ah ka om khuiah thoelhnah neh nangmih haeng ham te khaw dueng tila ka poek.
and I think right, so long as I am in this tent, to stir you up in reminding [you],
14 Mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih long pataeng kai taengah a thuicaih vanbangla kai kah rhaehim a capitnah tah om pawn ni tila ka ming.
having known that the laying aside of my tent is soon, even as our Lord Jesus Christ also showed to me.
15 Tedae kai te ka sunglatnah hnukah he he nangmih taengah poekkoepnah khueh sak taitu ham khaw ka haam.
And I will also be diligent [to ensure] that you always have a remembrance to make of these things after my departure.
16 Mamih Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah thaomnah neh a lonah te cil la ka phueng uh tih ka vai dongah nangmih taengah kam phoe uh moenih. Tedae a lennah te aka hmukung rhoek la ka om uh ta.
For having not followed out skillfully devised fables, we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but having become eyewitnesses of His majesty—
17 Pa Pathen taeng lamkah hinyahnah neh thangpomnah a doe vaengah tebang aka khuet thangpomnah lamloh, “Kamah capa tah kamah thintlo pai ni he, a soah kai ka lungtlun,” tila anih taengah ol hang khuen.
for having received honor and glory from God the Father, such a voice being borne to Him by the Excellent Glory: “This is My Son, the Beloved, in whom I delighted”;
18 Tlang cim ah amah neh ka om uh vaengah vaan lamkah hekah ol he hang khuen tih, kaimih long khaw ka yaak uh.
and we heard this voice borne out of Heaven, being with Him at the holy mountain.
19 Te phoeiah tonghma ol te khaw khangmai la ka khueh uh. Tekah te nangmih thinko ah khothai tih thuipa a thoeng duela tikhut hmuen ah aka vang hmaiim bangla ngaithuen uh lamtah balh saii uh.
And we have a more firm prophetic word, to which we do well giving heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until day may dawn, and [the] morning star may arise in your hearts;
20 He he lamhma la ming uh. Cacim kah tonghma ol boeih tah amah la thuicaihnah a om moenih.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Writing comes of private exposition,
21 Tonghma ol tah hlang kongaih lamloh hang khuen noek moenih. Tedae Mueihla Cim kah a mawt rhangneh Pathen taengkah ni hlang loh a phong.
for prophecy never came by [the] will of man, but men spoke from God, being brought by the Holy Spirit.
