2 Peter 3
1 I write to you now this second letter, beloved, in which I arouse your sincere mind by a reminder,
nikulembela bhebhe, n'ganwa ej'he barua j'ha bhubhele ili kukujhumusya mu luhala,
2 to remember the sayings that were earlier spoken by the holy prophets, and of the command of your apostles of the Lord and Savior.
ubhusiaghe kukhomboka malobhi agha ghaghajobhiki kabla ni manabii bhatakatifu ni kuhusu amri j'ha Bwana gwitu na mwokozi kwa kutumila mitume.
3 Knowing this first, that there will come at the end of the days, scoffers, proceeding according to their own desires,
ili kubhwandelu mana bhasaliti bhibhetakuhida mu ligono lya mwishu kubhasaliti muenga kyabhilota sawasawa ni matakwa ghabhu.
4 and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? For, from since the fathers became asleep, all things continue this way from the beginning of creation.
bhakajobhai “J'hij'henda ku ahadi j'ha kukherebhuka? Bha tata bhitu bhafwili, Lakini fenu fyoha fyaj'hele efu kuhomela kubhwandelu mwa bhuumbaji.
5 For this is willfully ignored by them, that long ago there were heavens, and an earth that came together out of water and by water by the word of God,
kuj'ha nchi ni mbingu fya j'handili naha kuhoma ni masi ni kup'hetela masi muandi muni, kwa litobhi lya litobhi lya k'yara,
6 by which the world then perished, having been overflowed with water.
kwamba kup'hetela litobhi lyake na masi ghakawa bhulimwengu kaw kipindi e'khu, ikibhwa j'himemili masi, j'haharibibhu.
7 But now the heavens and the earth, which have been stored up by the same word, are being preserved for fire in a day of judgment and destruction of irreverent men.
henu mbingu ni dunia situnzibhu kwa litobhi leluelu kwa ndabha j'ha muoto. Fihifadhibhu kwa ndabha j'ha ligono lya hukumu ni maj'hangamisi gha bhanu bhabhabeli kuj'ha bha k'yara.
8 But beloved, let not this one thing be ignored by you, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
j'hibhuesya lepi kuchenga bhujumbe bhwaku, bhaganwa, ligono limonga kwa bwana ni kama miaka elfu moja. Ni miaka elfu moja ni kama ligono limonga.
9 The Lord is not slack about his promise, as some regard slackness, but is patient toward us, not wanting any to perish, but all to go forward to repentance.
Sio kuj'ha Bwana iphomba molimoli kutimisya ahadi syake, kama kyaj'hifikiribhwa kuj'ha, Lakini muene mvumilivu kwandabha j'hinu, muene ilonda lepi hata mmonga ajhabgamilai, Lakini itamani kuhomesya muda ili bhoha bhakabhaghe kutubu.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, during which the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the elements, being intensely hot, will be disintegrated, and the earth and the works in it will be destroyed by fire.
ligono lya Bwana libetakuhida kama mmeji, mbingu j'hibeta kup'heta kwa kukuesya njuegho. Fenu fibeta kuteketesibhwa kwa muoto. Nchi ni fenu fioha fibetakufunulibhwa bhwasi.
11 Therefore, all these things being disintegrated, what kind ought ye to be in holy actions and pieties,
kuj'ha fenu fiyoha fibetakutekesibhwa kwa nj'hela ej'he, Je, ghwibeta kuj'ha munu ghwa aina gani? Utamaj'hi kitakatifu ni maisha gha kimungu.
12 anticipating and hastening the coming of the day of God, by which the heavens, being made fiery hot, will be disintegrated, and the elements dissolve, being intensely hot?
kumanya ni kutambula haraka ujio bha ligono lya k'yara. Ligono e'lu mbingu j'hibetakuteketesibhwa ni muoto. Ni fenu fibetakuyeyuka ni joto likali.
13 But we anticipate a new heavens and a new earth according to his promise, in which righteousness dwells.
kutokana ni ahadi syake, twilendela mbingu nyipya ni nchi nyipya, ambapo bhenye haki bhib'heta kutama.
14 Therefore, beloved, anticipating these things, be diligent to be found by him in peace, without spot and blameless.
kwa kuj'ha twitarajila fenu efe, mwikwitangaghe kuj'ha makini ni kutokulaumika ni kuj'ha ni amani pamonga nu muene.
15 And consider the longsuffering of our Lord, salvation, just as also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given to him,
zingatilai bhuvumilivu bhwa Bwana ghwitu mu bhwokovu, kama n'ganwa ndombo bhitu Paulo, kyaabhalembili muenga, kutokana ni luhala lwa apelibhu.
16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them about these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.
ilongelela agha ghoha mu barua syake, kuna fenu ambafyo ni figumu kufij'helebhwa. Bhanu bhabhaduli adabu ni bhuimara bhafyonangili fenu efu, Na kama kya bhibhomba ku maandiko. kulot'ela maangamizi ghabhu.
17 Ye therefore, beloved, knowing in advance, keep watch, lest, having accommodated to the error of the lawless, ye fall from your own steadfastness.
bhaganwa kwa kuj'ha mughamanyili aghu. Mwikilenda mwibhene ili kuj'ha mkatakupotosibhwa ni bhudesi bhwa bhalaghai ni kubhajhasya bhuaminifu.
The World is Destroyed by Water
