2 Peter 3
1 Consider, most beloved, this second epistle which I am writing to you, in which I stir up, by admonition, your sincere mind,
Ulu ni huhosimbila uve vigane ekalata yavile ili uhu kamelesia katiha uluhala,
2 so that you may be mindful of those words that I preached to you from the holy prophets, and of the precepts of the Apostles of your Lord and Savior.
ili uweswe uhukomboha amamenyu agajoviwe kabula unya malago uKlisite nuhuhusu indagelo cha upohi vito uvihu tupoha uvitumela avakongi.
3 Know this first: that in the last days there will arrive deceitful mockers, walking according to their own desires,
Uwelewe huwanjo uhuta avitulanongwa kihwicha hu sihu icha humwisio uhuva changanya yumwe vu viluta ni amli cha vene.
4 saying: “Where is his promise or his advent? For from the time that the fathers have slept, all things have continued just as they were from the beginning of creation.”
Nichova uhuta yele ndahu uludehano ulwa huki livuha dada veto vafuile lakini ifinu ivi vyahumile huwanja uhwavumbile.
5 But they willfully ignore this: that the heavens existed first, and that the earth, from water and through water, was established by the Word of God.
Vahefanya uhusamwe ihelunga vihumine na magasi nuhugendela amagasiga hatale hulimenyu ilwa Nguluve,
6 By water, the former world then, having been inundated with water, perished.
uhusendela mlimenyu ilia mwene nama gasi gavaha kilonga huhepindi ihwo hagaviwe amagasi heha nangeha.
7 But the heavens and the earth that exist now were restored by the same Word, being reserved unto fire on the day of judgment, and unto the perdition of impious men.
Ululeno hukianya napasi kutonjiwe hulimenye lelelwo ilwa moto levehiwe hwa ajili ya yahuhegiwe uhwongomela awanu avalevuvule uNguluve.
8 Yet truly, let this one thing not escape notice, most beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like one day.
Sayiweswa uhunanga elimenyu iliaho husihu yemo hwanguluke ni kama miaha mia moja elfu moja ni kama sihu yemo.
9 The Lord is not delaying his promise, as some imagine, but he does act patiently for your sake, not wanting anyone to perish, but wanting all to be turned back to penance.
Sio khuva uNguluve ivomba mlamola uhutimeswa ulu dehano kama umyihweleveha umwene mwaminifu hwa ajili yenyo umwene sinogwa ihungomela lakini ihumia usehe ili uhwe pala imbivi.
10 Then the day of the Lord shall arrive like a thief. On that day, the heavens shall pass away with great violence, and truly the elements shall be dissolved with heat; then the earth, and the works that are within it, shall be completely burned up.
Inave, isihu ya Nguluve yifiha yiva kama undiasi ehelunga hela genda hwa huchova ekelele ifinu vilanangeha no mwoto. Ihelonga hwini helava mbuvalafu.
11 Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what kind of people ought you to be? In behavior and in piety, be holy,
Uhuva ifinu vyoni nangeha hunjela eye. Je ulava mnu vani utame he Klisite na emitamelo gwa he Nguluve.
12 waiting for, and hurrying toward, the advent of the day of the Lord, by which the burning heavens shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt from the heat of the fire.
Yinogwa uhelewa halaga uhwicha hwa Nguluve isihu eyo ehelunga helanangeha nu moto nifinu vilayeyoha no moto.
13 Yet truly, in accord with his promises, we are looking forward to the new heavens and the new earth, in which justice lives.
Uhuhumana ne ahadi ya mwene tugojela ehelunga ehepya ambamo avenya lweli vitama.
14 Therefore, most beloved, while awaiting these things, be diligent, so that you may be found to be immaculate and unassailable before him, in peace.
Leno vagane tutegemela ifinu ifi etange sana uhusita uhulalameha nuhuva ne amani nave.
15 And let the longsuffering of our Lord be considered salvation, as also our most beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,
Ni fata ukwe yomelecha hwa Nguluve katika uhwohwolewa kama vagane va Paulo, avasimbile umwe uhuhumana nuhwedeha ambayo ahapohilwe.
16 just as he also spoke in all of his epistles about these things. In these, there are certain things which are difficult to understand, which the unlearned and the unsteady distort, as they also do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
UPaulo alihujovela ago goni mkalata iya mwene hule finu ifi gumu uhuvyelewa avanu vava vakosiche eadabu na uvuimala vafinangile ifinu ivyo numvivombela uhusimba huhwa huhwelekea uhwongomela hwavene.
17 But since you, brothers, know these things beforehand, be cautious, lest by being drawn into the error of the foolish, you may fall away from your own steadfastness.
Hivyo vagane uhuva mlumanyile ago lolelanaga ili msite uhuyagwa edeme mwevena ili msite uhuyagwa nuvudesi uwavapohaji nu huvayacha uwe lweli.
The Great Flood
