< 2 Peter 1 >

1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ:
Simon Petro, omukosi na intumwa ya Yesu Kristo, ku bhaliya bhalamiye elikilisha liliya liliya lya kisi kutyo chalamiye eswe, elikilisha linu lili mu bhulengelesi bhwa Nyamuanga no mwilusi weswe Yesu Kristo.
2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
Echigongo chibhe kwemwe; omulembe gwiyongeshe okutula mu bhwengeso bhwa Nyamuanga no Mukama weswe Yesu.
3 seeing that his divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and virtue,
Okutula mu bhwengeso bhwa Nyamuanga chamabhona amagambo gaye gona kulwo bhwiyami bhwo bhulame, okusoka ku Nyamuanga unu achibhilikiye kwo bhujima bhwa likusho lyaye.
4 by which he has granted to us his precious and exceedingly great promises; that through these you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.
Kwa injila inu achiyanile obhwisige bhwo bhulago bhukulu bhwe kisi. Akolele linu kwo kuchikola chibhe abhali bhwo mwandu bhwo bhusimuka bhwa Nyamuanga, kutyo echigendelela okusiga amabhibhi ge chalo chinu.
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
Kwa injuno inu, mukole amanaga okwongesha obhujima kwa injila yo kwikilisha kwemwe, kwo bhujima, obhwengeso.
6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
Okutula ku bhwengeso, echitilu, no kutula ku chitilu, okwigumulisha, no kutula okwigumilisha, obhulengelesi.
7 and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
Okutula ku bhulengelesi elyenda lya bhaili no kutula ku lyenda lya bhaili, obhenji.
8 For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Labha emisango jinu jili mwimwe, jikagendelela okukula mwimwe, mbe emwe mutakubha bhagumba amwi abhanu abho bhatakwibhula amatwasho ku bhwengesho bhwo Mukama weswe Yesu Kristo.
9 For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
Mbe nawe wona wona oyo atali ne misango jinu, kalola emisango ja yei la; omwene ni muofu, alabhiwe kutyo osibhwe ebhiyeno bhyaye bhya kala.
10 Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
Ku lwejo, bhaili, mwikomeshe koleleki mumenye obhusolwa no kubhilikilwa kwemwe. Labha mukakola ganu, mutakwikujula.
11 For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Kutyo omwibhonela obhwanfu bhwo mulyango gwo kwingilila mu bhukama bhwa kajanende bhwo Mukama weswe no mukisha Yesu Kristo. (aiōnios g166)
12 Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the present truth.
Mbe kutyo anye enibha mwangu okubhejukisha emisango jinu bhuli mwanya, nolwo kutyo mujimenyele, woli mwabheye bhakomeye mu chimali.
13 I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,
Eniganilisha ati nikolele ja bhwana okubhemusha no kubhejukisha ingulu ye misango jinu, nichalimo mwihema linu.
14 knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
Kwo kubha enimenya ati omwanya nti mulela enisoshao lihema lyani, lya kutyo Omukama Yesu Kristo anyelesishe.
15 Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
Enikomesha kwa managa gona ingulu yemwe koleleki mwijuke emisango jinu nolwo nikabha nagendele.
16 For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
Kwo kubha eswe chitalubhile jingani ejo jiigisibhwe ku bhwekisi ao chabhabhwiliye ingulu ya managa no kwitula abhwelu Omukama weswe Yesu Kristo, tali eswe chabheye bhabhambasi bha likusho lyaye.
17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Omwene alamiye likusho na lisima okusoka ku Nyamuanga Lata ao obhulaka bhunguwe okusoka mwikusho likulu nibhwaika ati, “Unu niwe Omwana wani, omwendwa wani oyo nikondelesibhwe nage.”
18 We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
Chonguwe obhulaka bhunu mbusokelela mwigulu ao chaliga chili nage ku chima chiliya echelu.
19 We have the more sure word of prophecy; and you do well that you heed it as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts,
Chilinagwo omusango gunu gwo bhulagi ogwo gumaliliye, ogwo omukola je kisi okugungwa. Ni kuti itala eyo eyaka muchisute okingila okusuluka na jinyota ja machelelesha ejo ejibhonekana mu myoyo jemwe.
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
Mumenye ganu ati, bhutalio bhulagi obhwo obhwandikwa kwo kwiganilisha kwo mulagi omwene.
21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
Kwo kubha bhutalio bhulagi obhwo bhwejile kwe lyenda lyo munu, tali abhanu bhasakiwe no Mwoyo Omwelu oyo alomele okusoka ku Nyamuanga.
