¹Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:

¹Sura toi ngkai aku', Simon Petrus, batua pai' suro-na Yesus Kristus, kupakatu tilou hi ompi' -ompi' to bela-koi to Yahudi to mepangala' -mi hi Yesus Kristus hibalia hante kai'. Yesus Kristus toei, Hi'a-mi Alata'ala pai' Magau' Tompohore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta. Napajadi' -koi mepangala' hibalia hante kai' apa' pobabehi-na monoa'.

²Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

²Wori' tabe: mekakae-a hi Alata'ala bona nawai' -koi kawoo-woria' gane' -na pai' kalompea' tuwu', apa' ni'inca-imi Alata'ala pai' Yesus Pue' -ta.

³According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:

³Bohe mpu'u katuwu' -na Alata'ala, pai' lompe' lia nono-na. Ngkai kabohe tuwu' -na pai' kalompe' nono-na toe, nakio' -tamo jadi' ana' -na, duu' -na ta'inca mpu'u-imi. Pai' napake' baraka' -na to bohe lia, nawai' -ta butu nyala to taparaluu hi rala katuwu' -ta pai' petuku' -ta hi Hi'a.

⁴Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

⁴Ngkai kabohe tuwu' -na pai' kalompe' nono-na toe, nawai' -tamo rasi' -rasi' to uma mowo kalompe' -na pai' to bohe lia to najanci-mitaka. Patuju-na mpowai' -koi rasi' toe, bona ma'ala-koi mpo'uhi kehi Alata'ala, pai' neo' -pi mpotuku' kahinaa to dada'a. Kahinaa to dada'a toe mpokero katuwu' -ra tauna to uma mpo'incai Alata'ala.

⁵And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

⁵Jadi', apa' lawi' wae-mi petulungi-na hi koi' -e ompi', huduwukui mpu'u-koi mpodonihii pepangala' -ni hante kehi to lompe'. Pai' kehi-ni to lompe' toe nidonihii wo'o hante kanotoa nono.

⁶And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

⁶Oti toe, donihii ncuu petuku' -ni hi Alata'ala duu' -na nipakule' mpokuasai konoa woto-ni, ntaha hi rala kasusaa', mengkoru hi Alata'ala,

⁷And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

⁷pai' mpoka'ahi' ompi' hampepangalaa' -ni. Pai' ahi' hi ompi' hampepangalaa' -ni toe nidonihii tena mpoka'ahi' hawe'ea tauna.

⁸For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁸Ane hewa toe-damo kehi-ni pai' ane nidonihii ncuu, mokalaua mpu'u-koi mpo'inca Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus, pai' moroho petuku' -ni hi Hi'a.

⁹But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.

⁹Aga tauna to uma hewa toe kehi-ra, hewa to wero-ra. Apa' ane tauna to wero uma monoto pehilo-na, wae wo'o tauna to hewa toe rede' pekiri-ra, apa' uma rakiwoi karabohoi' -rami ngkai jeko' -ra to timpaliu-mi.

¹⁰Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

¹⁰Toe-mi ompi', apa' lawi' napelihi-mokoi Alata'ala pai' nakio' -koi jadi' topetuku' -nae, nihuduwukui mpu'u-e' mpotuku' Alata'ala, bona monoa' ni'inca kanapelihi-ni pai' kanakio' -ni. Apa' ane nidonihii pepangala' -ni hante kehi hewa to ku'uli' -e we'i, bate uma-wakoi mpai' monawu',

¹¹For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

¹¹pai' hi eo mpeno-na Alata'ala mpobea-kokoi wobo' suruga, nadoa-koi mesua' hi rala Kamagaua' -na Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus, Magau' Tompohore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta. Kamagaua' -na toe uma ria kahudua-na.

¹²Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.

¹²Toe-mi ompi', nau' ni'inca moto-mi hawe'ea toe lau, pai' nau' moroho-mi petuku' -ni hi tudui' to makono, aga uma palaia-na kupopokiwoii oa' -koi.

¹³Yea, I think it meet, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;

¹⁴Apa' ku'inca neo' rata-mi ioa' -ku, hewa to na'uli' -ka Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus. Jadi', ane da tuwu' -tuwu' -a-pidi, masipato' ku'uli' oa' lolita-ku mpo'apui nono-ni pai' mpopokiwoii-koi hawe'ea toe lau.

¹⁴Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me.

¹⁵Toe pai' kuhuduwukui wo'o bona ane mate-apa mpai', ma'ala oa' -koi mpokiwoi hawe'ea toe lau.

¹⁵Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.

¹⁶Kitudui' -kokoi kabohe baraka' -na Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus pai' karata-na nculii' mpai' hi dunia'. To kitudui' -kokoi toe, bela jarita to ratamangko-wadi. Ki'inca toe, apa' mata-kai moto-mi mposabii' kabohe tuwu' -na.

¹⁶For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

¹⁷Apa' hangkani, ria-kai doo-na Yesus hi lolo bulu', pai' kihilo-i mehini ngkai kabohe tuwu' -na pai' pebila' to narata ngkai Alata'ala Tuama-na. Ki'epe libu' ngkai Alata'ala to mobaraka' to mpo'uli': "Hi'a toi-mi Ana' -ku to kupe'ahi', Hi'a to mpakagoe' nono-ku."

¹⁷For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

¹⁸Kai' moto-mi to mpo'epe lolita to ngkai suruga tohe'e, bula-kai ria dohe-na hi lolo bulu' to moroli'.

¹⁸And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

¹⁹Jadi', ngkai to kihilo toe, kamoroo-rohoa lau-mi pepangala' -kai hi lolita nabi-nabi to owi. Uma mowo kalompe' -na ane nipoinono lolita nabi toe, ompi', apa' lolita-ra toe hewa lampu to mehini hi rala kabengia-na. Penonoi lolita nabi toe, duu' -na Pue' Yesus rata nculii' hi rala dunia' toi, pai' ni'inca-i hante kanoto-noto-na. Karata-na nculii' Yesus toe hewa pengiri' -na eo ba hewa pehupa' -na betue' pompoka-eo.

¹⁹We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

²⁰Aga to meliu lia ngkai hawe'ea, kana nikiwoi tohe'i: napa to ra'uki' nabi toe, uma ma'ala tabatuai ntuku' konoa-ta moto.

²⁰Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

²¹Apa' nabi-nabi to owi mpoparata lolita toe uma ntuku' konoa manusia'. Hante pepakeni Inoha' Tomoroli' -hana nabi toera mpohowa' lolita to ngkai Alata'ala.

²¹For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
