2 Peter 1
1 Simon Peter, a servant and emissary of Yeshua the Messiah, to those who have obtained a like precious faith with us in the righteousness of our God and Saviour, Yeshua the Messiah:
yE janA asmAbhiH sArddham astadIzvarE trAtari yIzukhrISTE ca puNyasambalitavizvAsadhanasya samAnAMzitvaM prAptAstAn prati yIzukhrISTasya dAsaH prEritazca zimOn pitaraH patraM likhati|
2 Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Yeshua our Lord,
IzvarasyAsmAkaM prabhO ryIzOzca tatvajnjAnEna yuSmAsvanugrahazAntyO rbAhulyaM varttatAM|
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,
jIvanArtham Izvarabhaktyarthanjca yadyad AvazyakaM tat sarvvaM gauravasadguNAbhyAm asmadAhvAnakAriNastattvajnjAnadvArA tasyEzvarIyazaktirasmabhyaM dattavatI|
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.
tatsarvvENa cAsmabhyaM tAdRzA bahumUlyA mahApratijnjA dattA yAbhi ryUyaM saMsAravyAptAt kutsitAbhilASamUlAt sarvvanAzAd rakSAM prApyEzvarIyasvabhAvasyAMzinO bhavituM zaknutha|
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
tatO hEtO ryUyaM sampUrNaM yatnaM vidhAya vizvAsE saujanyaM saujanyE jnjAnaM
6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
jnjAna AyatEndriyatAm AyatEndriyatAyAM dhairyyaM dhairyya Izvarabhaktim
7 and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
Izvarabhaktau bhrAtRsnEhE ca prEma yugkta|
8 For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to not be idle or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah.
EtAni yadi yuSmAsu vidyantE varddhantE ca tarhyasmatprabhO ryIzukhrISTasya tattvajnjAnE yuSmAn alasAn niSphalAMzca na sthApayiSyanti|
9 For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
kintvEtAni yasya na vidyantE sO 'ndhO mudritalOcanaH svakIyapUrvvapApAnAM mArjjanasya vismRtiM gatazca|
10 Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
tasmAd hE bhrAtaraH, yUyaM svakIyAhvAnavaraNayO rdRPhakaraNE bahu yatadhvaM, tat kRtvA kadAca na skhaliSyatha|
11 For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour, Yeshua the Messiah. (aiōnios g166)
yatO 'nEna prakArENAsmAkaM prabhOstrAtR ryIzukhrISTasyAnantarAjyasya pravEzEna yUyaM sukalEna yOjayiSyadhvE| (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.
yadyapi yUyam Etat sarvvaM jAnItha varttamAnE satyamatE susthirA bhavatha ca tathApi yuSmAn sarvvadA tat smArayitum aham ayatnavAn na bhaviSyAmi|
13 I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,
yAvad Etasmin dUSyE tiSThAmi tAvad yuSmAn smArayan prabOdhayituM vihitaM manyE|
14 knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Yeshua the Messiah made clear to me.
yatO 'smAkaM prabhu ryIzukhrISTO mAM yat jnjApitavAn tadanusArAd dUSyamEtat mayA zIghraM tyaktavyam iti jAnAmi|
15 Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
mama paralOkagamanAt paramapi yUyaM yadEtAni smarttuM zakSyatha tasmin sarvvathA yatiSyE|
16 For we didn’t follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
yatO 'smAkaM prabhO ryIzukhrISTasya parAkramaM punarAgamananjca yuSmAn jnjApayantO vayaM kalpitAnyupAkhyAnAnyanvagacchAmEti nahi kintu tasya mahimnaH pratyakSasAkSiNO bhUtvA bhASitavantaH|
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
yataH sa piturIzvarAd gauravaM prazaMsAnjca prAptavAn vizESatO mahimayuktatEjOmadhyAd EtAdRzI vANI taM prati nirgatavatI, yathA, ESa mama priyaputra Etasmin mama paramasantOSaH|
18 We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
svargAt nirgatEyaM vANI pavitraparvvatE tEna sArddhaM vidyamAnairasmAbhirazrAvi|
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,
aparam asmatsamIpE dRPhataraM bhaviSyadvAkyaM vidyatE yUyanjca yadi dinArambhaM yuSmanmanaHsu prabhAtIyanakSatrasyOdayanjca yAvat timiramayE sthAnE jvalantaM pradIpamiva tad vAkyaM sammanyadhvE tarhi bhadraM kariSyatha|
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
zAstrIyaM kimapi bhaviSyadvAkyaM manuSyasya svakIyabhAvabOdhakaM nahi, Etad yuSmAbhiH samyak jnjAyatAM|
21 For no prophecy ever came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
yatO bhaviSyadvAkyaM purA mAnuSANAm icchAtO nOtpannaM kintvIzvarasya pavitralOkAH pavitrENAtmanA pravarttitAH santO vAkyam abhASanta|
