2 Peter 1
1 Simoni Piela, kisadi ayi mvuala wu Yesu Klisto mfidisidi nkanda kuidi bobo batambula minu ki thalu yimosi banga beto mu nzila yi busonga bu Nzambi eto ayi Mvulusi eto Yesu Klisto.
Simeon 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:
2 Bika baluwokisila nlemvo ayi ndembama mu nzila yi nzayilu yi Nzambi ayi Yesu, Pfumu eto.
Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Lulendo luandi, lutuvana bima bioso biobi tuvua mfunu mu luzingu ayi mu kukiyekula mu nzila yi zaba mutu wowo wututela mu nkembo andi ayi muvanganga mambote.
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;
4 Mu nzila yoyi katuvanina zitsila zinneni ayi zilutidi thalu muingi mu ziawu beno mamveno lufubakana mu kithuadi mu lunitu lu kinzambi beno bu lutina mbivusu yi nzinunu yidi va ntoto.
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.
5 Mu diambu diodi bika lutula zingolo zieno mu buela vanganga mambote va mbata minu kieno; nzayilu va mbata vanganga mambote;
Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 kukiyala va mbata nzayilu; thatumunu va mbata kukiyala; kukiyekula kuidi Nzambi va mbata thatumunu;
and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness;
7 luzolo lu kikhomba va mbata kukiyekula kudi Nzambi; bosi luzolo va mbata luzolo lu kikhomba.
and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Bila enati mambu mama madi yeno ayi enati mawu malembo yilama mu beno buna malendi kulukitula miolo ko ayi bisita ko mu nzayilu eno yi Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto.
For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Bila mutu kambulu mambu mama widi banga phofo ayi kamonanga mbote ko. Wuzimbakana ti wuvedoso mu masumu mandi ma thama.
For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Diawu, bakhomba ziama, bika lumonisa bufula mu kindisa lutelo lueno ayi tsobobolo eno. Bila enati lumvanga mambu mama buna lulendi bua ko,
Therefore, brothers, be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 ayi buna bela kuluyakula bumbote mu kipfumu ki mvu ka mvu ki Pfumu eto ayi Mvulusi eto Yesu Klisto. (aiōnios g166)
For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the everlasting Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
12 Diawu ndiela kulutebulanga mu zithangu zioso moyo mu mambu mama; ka diambu ko luzebi mawu ayi luidi bakinda mu kiedika ki thangu yayi.
Therefore I will be ready always to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Vayi minu mbueni ti didi diambu disonga mu kulutebula moyo bu ndikidi zingi mu nitu yayi
I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 bila nzebi ti fioti kuandi fisiedi buna ndieka bika nitu beni banga bumbonisina Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto.
knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Vayi ndiela tula zingolo mu diambu lutebukilanga mambu mama moyo ka diambu ko minu ndiedi.
Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Bila tusia landakana zinongo zituama yindulu bumbote ko mu thangu tuluzabikisa lulendo ayi ndizulu yi Pfumu eto Yesu Klisto vayi beto tuba bambangi bamona nzitusu andi.
For we did not follow cunningly devised tales, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 Bila wutambula nzitusu ayi nkembo kuidi Nzambi Tata mu thangu mbembo yitotukila mu nkembo wunneni wu Nzambi yituba ti: “Niani niandi muanꞌama wu luzolo; khini yiwombo kakumbonisanga.”
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."
18 Ayi beto mamveto tuwa mbembo beni yitotukila ku diyilu mu thangu tuba yandi va kimosi va mbata mongo wunlongo.
We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Ayi tubeki mambu ma mimbikudi makitulu makinda; mu mawu lufueti lubukila bila madi banga muinda wunlema mu tombi nate buisi butona kienzuka ayi mbuetete yi nsuka yintotuka mu mintima mieno.
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:
20 Mu mamo momo bika lutuama zaba ti kadi mutu wumosi kalendi sudikisa ko kadi mbikudulu yimosi yi masonoko mu diela diandi veka.
knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Bila mbikudulu yiyizilanga mu luzolo lu mutu ko vayi batu banlongo ba Nzambi bayoluka bu badiatusu kuidi pheve Yinlongo.
For no prophecy ever came by human will, but people spoke from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
