< 2 Peter 3 >

1 Dear ones, this is now a second letter I am writing to you (in both of which I stir up your sincere mind by way of reminder),
Toronoo susue nggara e! Ia, au susura karua ngga fee neu nggi. Sia susura karuaꞌ ia ra, au fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu nggi, fo hei bisa dudꞌuꞌa soꞌal dala ndoo-tetuꞌ.
2 so that you remember the words that were spoken before by the holy prophets and the command of the Lord and Savior, through your apostles.
Misinedꞌa Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-ola meumare dalahulu nara dedꞌea oꞌola nara. Misinedꞌa Yesus dedꞌenu nara boe. Misinedꞌa malolole soꞌal saa fo hita Lamatuan parenda se fo rafadꞌe nggi. Te Eni mana fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu nggi mia sala-kiluꞌ ra!
3 Knowing this first: in the last days mockers will come, living according to their own lusts
Misinedꞌa taꞌo ia: mae raefafoꞌ nda feꞌe nateteꞌe sa, te hambu mana maꞌaeꞌeiꞌ mana tao leli tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau nara. Ara olaꞌ raꞌamuti basa dala ndoo-tetuꞌ ra.
4 and saying: “Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”
Ara olaꞌ rae, “Cii! Yesus helu-fuli nae, Eni nae baliꞌ nema, do? Mete ma taꞌo naa, na, Ana sia bee? Huu eniꞌ a mia hita bei-baꞌi nara mate, losa ia nema, basaꞌ e feꞌe naa ena. Basaꞌ e laoꞌ nekendoo, eniꞌ a Lamatuaꞌ naꞌadadꞌiꞌ lalai no raefafoꞌ.”
5 This because they deliberately ignore that heavens and land (out of water and through water) had been existing from of old by the word of God,
Te hambu dalaꞌ esa fo atahori mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra nda nau rasanedꞌa sa. Naeni, mia fefeun Lamatuaꞌ olaꞌ a, ma lalai dadꞌi neuꞌ ena. Ma Lamatuaꞌ tao oe boe. Basa ma Ana tadꞌa-banggi oe mia rae madꞌaꞌ, ma tao rae madꞌaꞌ sou mia oeꞌ a. Lamatuaꞌ olaꞌ taꞌo bee, na, naa o dadꞌi boe. Dodꞌoo ma, Lamatuaꞌ tao nalutu basa atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia fo mana rasodꞌa mia baꞌi Noh lelen, nendiꞌ oe mandali monaeꞌ. Te leleꞌ ia, Lamatuaꞌ nafadꞌe memaꞌ saa fo Eni nau tao soaꞌ neu lalai no raefafoꞌ. Leleꞌ ia Ana feꞌe naꞌatataaꞌ, te dei fo losa fain, Ana nae hotu hendi se. Te dei fo Lamatuaꞌ natudꞌa huku-dꞌokiꞌ fo nalutu atahori nda mana nau tao afiꞌ neu Eni sa. Mae taꞌo naa o, atahori mana peko-lelekoꞌ ra nda nau rasanedꞌa sa rae, Dei fo Lamatualain tao tungga saa fo Eni olaꞌ ena.
6 by which word the world that then was perished, being flooded by water.
7 But the current heavens, and the earth, are being reserved by His word for fire, being preserved until the day of judgment and perdition of godless men.
8 But dear ones, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Toronoo susue ngga re! Afi liliiꞌ dalaꞌ ia, naeni, hita Lamatuan nda ito-reken fai ra onaꞌ hita sa. Te tungga Eni, fai esa bisa dadꞌi too rifon sa. Ma too rifon sa bisa dadꞌi fai esa.
9 The Lord is not delaying the promise, as some consider delay, but rather is patient toward us, not wishing anyone to perish but all to come into repentance.
Mete ma hita Lamatuan helu-fuli nae tao dalaꞌ esa, na, Ana tao nandaa no fain, nda nahani sa. Hambu atahori ruma duꞌa rae Ana ue-tao babꞌanggo. Tao-tao te hokoꞌ! Te Ana naꞌatataaꞌ, fo nahani fain dei. Hita Lamatuan nau fo basa atahori doaꞌ dei, fo lao hela sala-kilu nara, ma heoꞌ baliꞌ tungga Eni. Huu Ana nda nau atahori nenesaranggaaꞌ mia Eni sa.
10 However, the day of the Lord will come like a thief at night, in which heavens will pass away with a whoosh, while the elements will be dissolved by burning—both the earth and the works in it will be completely consumed.
Te mete ma hita Lamatuan baliꞌ nema na, nda hambu atahori rahine memaꞌ sa. Te neneman naa, aibꞌoiꞌ ona naꞌo esa masoꞌ ume rala neu. Leleꞌ naa, basa saa mana sia lalai a kadꞌe hendi se, onaꞌ relo, fulan, ma nduuꞌ ra. Basaꞌ e basa! Onaꞌ naa boe, raefafoꞌ no basa isi oen. Kadꞌe hendi se!
11 Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness,
Dadꞌi mete ma basa e kadꞌe hendi se onaꞌ naa, na, hei musi dadꞌi atahori onaꞌ bee fai? Hei musi mimbiriiꞌ mihereꞌ fo misodꞌa tungga Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun. Hei musi misodꞌa meumareꞌ.
12 expecting and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?
Hei musi mihani mikindoo Lamatuaꞌ neneman. Dadꞌi hei musi mimihereꞌ fo tao fain nema lalai leo. Leleꞌ naa, kadꞌe hendi lalai boe. Ma basa saa-saa sia lalai ra o nene lalangge hendiꞌ de noe hendi se.
13 Nevertheless, we look for new heavens and a new earth in which dwells righteousness, according to His promise.
Te dei fo hambu lalai mata feuꞌ no raefafo mata feuꞌ boe. Lamatualain helu-fuli taꞌo naa ena, ma naa saa fo hita tahaniꞌ a. Sia naa hambuꞌ a atahori mana rasodꞌa ndoos ra.
14 Therefore, dear ones, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, faultless and blameless;
De toronoo susue nggare! Leleꞌ hei mihani dalaꞌ ia ra, hei musi mihehere fo dadꞌi atahori maloleꞌ, tungga Lamatuaꞌ nilen. No taꞌo naa, nda hambu atahori bisa fua salaꞌ neu nggi sa. Mimihere fo misodꞌa badꞌame boe.
15 and consider the longsuffering of our Lord to be salvation—just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him,
Te hita Lamatuan naa naꞌatataaꞌ, naa fo Ana bisa fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu nggi mia sala-kilu mara. Naa, hita toronoon Paulus sura fee nggi soꞌal dalaꞌ hetar mana ona esaꞌ, to? Lamatuaꞌ mana fee ne nahine taꞌo naa, naa de ana sura taꞌo naa boe.
16 as also in all his epistles (speaking in them of these things, about which there are some things hard to understand), which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.
Leleꞌ Paulus suraꞌ susura esa, ana o olaꞌ dalaꞌ ia ra boe. Mia susura nara, memaꞌ hambu dala ruma fo hita susa tahine masud na. Ma hambu atahori tao oꞌoheheoꞌ Paulus masud na boe. Ara o tao oꞌoheheoꞌ dalaꞌ laen sia Lamatuaꞌ Susura Meumaren boe. Sira, naeni atahori manamberaꞌ ra, ma atahori fo nemeheren nda manggateeꞌ sa. Atahori mataꞌ naa ra, dei fo lutuꞌ-etoꞌ nala se.
17 You therefore, dear ones, being forewarned, be on guard lest, being carried away by the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.
Toronoo susue nggare! Hei mihine meser mana peko-lelekoꞌ naa ra dala masodꞌa nara ena. De besa-bꞌesa, o! Te ara nda nau rena hohoro-lalaneꞌ saa sa boe. Ara sobꞌa peko-lelekoꞌ nggi, naa fo ama dinggo lao hela dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a. Te afi hela se rasenggiꞌ nggi taꞌo naa. Huu naa de ama musi miꞌitataaꞌ mihereꞌ.
18 Rather, may you grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and into the eternal day. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Malole lena, hei nemehere mara mori nekendoo. Huu hei mihine hita Lamatuan Yesus Kristus ena, mana fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu nggita mia sala-kilu tara. Ana nau natudꞌu rala malolen neu nggi. Ma Ana o nau fo mihine E no maloleꞌ lenaꞌ fai. Au nau fo basa atahori soꞌu rananaru E, mia leleꞌ ia losa doo nduꞌu-doon neu. Sodꞌa-moleꞌ Petrus (aiōn g165)
