2 Petro 1
1 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.
Symeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of our God, and the Saviour Jesus Christ:
2 Echigongo chibhe kwemwe; omulembe gwiyongeshe okutula mu bhwengeso bhwa Nyamuanga no Mukama weswe Yesu.
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.
3 Okutula mu bhwengeso bhwa Nyamuanga chamabhona amagambo gaye gona kulwo bhwiyami bhwo bhulame, okusoka ku Nyamuanga unu achibhilikiye kwo bhujima bhwa likusho lyaye.
Seeing that his Divine power hath given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness;
4 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.
through which he hath given us exceedingly great and precious promises, that by these ye may become partakers of the Divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world through lust;
5 Kwa injuno inu, mukole amanaga okwongesha obhujima kwa injila yo kwikilisha kwemwe, kwo bhujima, obhwengeso.
even for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge,
6 Okutula ku bhwengeso, echitilu, no kutula ku chitilu, okwigumulisha, no kutula okwigumilisha, obhulengelesi.
and to knowledge self-control, and to self-control endurance, and to endurance godliness,
7 Okutula ku bhulengelesi elyenda lya bhaili no kutula ku lyenda lya bhaili, obhenji.
and to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love.
8 Labha emisango jinu jili mwimwe, jikagendelela okukula mwimwe, mbe emwe mutakubha bhagumba amwi abhanu abho bhatakwibhula amatwasho ku bhwengesho bhwo Mukama weswe Yesu Kristo.
For if these things are in you and abound, they make you neither inactive nor unfruitful in gaining the full knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Mbe nawe wona wona oyo atali ne misango jinu, kalola emisango ja yei la; omwene ni muofu, alabhiwe kutyo osibhwe ebhiyeno bhyaye bhya kala.
But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.
10 Ku lwejo, bhaili, mwikomeshe koleleki mumenye obhusolwa no kubhilikilwa kwemwe. Labha mukakola ganu, mutakwikujula.
Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure; for if ye do these things, ye will never fall.
11 Kutyo omwibhonela obhwanfu bhwo mulyango gwo kwingilila mu bhukama bhwa kajanende bhwo Mukama weswe no mukisha Yesu Kristo. (aiōnios g166)
For in this way the entrance will be richly furnished you into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Mbe kutyo anye enibha mwangu okubhejukisha emisango jinu bhuli mwanya, nolwo kutyo mujimenyele, woli mwabheye bhakomeye mu chimali.
Wherefore I shall be careful always to remind you of these things, though ye know them, and are established in the truth that is with you.
13 Eniganilisha ati nikolele ja bhwana okubhemusha no kubhejukisha ingulu ye misango jinu, nichalimo mwihema linu.
Yea, I think it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 Kwo kubha enimenya ati omwanya nti mulela enisoshao lihema lyani, lya kutyo Omukama Yesu Kristo anyelesishe.
knowing that I must soon put off my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ declared to me.
15 Enikomesha kwa managa gona ingulu yemwe koleleki mwijuke emisango jinu nolwo nikabha nagendele.
Moreover I shall endeavor that at all times ye may be able, after my departure, to call these things to mind.
16 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.
For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but had been made eye-witnesses of his majesty.
17 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.”
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when such a voice as this was borne to him from the excellent glory: “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”
18 Chonguwe obhulaka bhunu mbusokelela mwigulu ao chaliga chili nage ku chima chiliya echelu.
And this voice we heard borne from heaven when we were with him in the holy mount.
19 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.
And we have more sure the prophetic word, to which ye do well in taking heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts;
20 Mumenye ganu ati, bhutalio bhulagi obhwo obhwandikwa kwo kwiganilisha kwo mulagi omwene.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture cometh from private interpretation.
21 Kwo kubha bhutalio bhulagi obhwo bhwejile kwe lyenda lyo munu, tali abhanu bhasakiwe no Mwoyo Omwelu oyo alomele okusoka ku Nyamuanga.
For prophecy never came by the will of man; but moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke from God.
