1 Man Simoŋ Pieer, jaamu Yeesu Krist ak ndawam, maa leen di bind, yeen ñi Yàlla jagleel ngëm gu rafet ni nun, aju ci njubu sunu Yàlla ak Musalkat, Yeesu Krist.
1Simon 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 Na leen Yàlla dollil yiw ak jàmm, jaar ci xam ko ak Yeesu sunu Boroom.
2Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,
3 Dooley Yàlla moo nu may lépp lu aju ci dund gu sax ak ragal Yàlla, jaarale ko ci xam gi nu ko xam, moom mi nu woo ci kaw ndamam ak dooleem.
3seeing 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 Noonu la nu dige ay dig yu rafet, te réy ba ëpp xel, ngir nu gëm leen, te Yàlla sol nu jikoom, nu mucc ci yàqute, gi bànneexu bakkan samp ci àddina si.
4by 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 Na loolu tax ngeen góor-góorlu, ba yokk ci seen ngëm njàmbaar, ci njàmbaar googu ngeen yokk ci xam-xam, yokk ci noot sa bopp.
5Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge;
6 Noot sa bopp googu, ngeen yokk ci muñ, yokk ci ragal Yàlla,
6and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control patience; and in patience godliness;
7 yokk ci sopp mbokk, yokk ci bëgg ñépp.
7and in godliness brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
8 Ndaxte bu leen jiko yooyu soloo, ba sax ci yeen, dina tax seen xam Yeesu Krist Boroom bi am njeriñ te jur mbaax.
8For 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 Waaye ku ñàkk jiko yooyu, ay bëtam dañoo lëndëm ba gumba, te fàtte na, ni ko Yàlla fóotale bàkkaari démb.
9For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins.
10 Kon nag samay mbokk, gannaaw Yàlla da leena tànn te woo leen, góor-góorluleen ci feddali ko ak seen kem-kàttan. Ndaxte su ngeen ko defee, dungeen jeng mukk.
10Therefore, brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.
11 Te noonu dingeen tàbbi ak ndam ci nguur gu sax gu sunu Boroom, di sunu Musalkat Yeesu Krist.
11For thus you will be richly supplied with the entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
12 Wóor na ma ne xam ngeen loolu, ba sampu ci dëgg gi leen Yàlla jagleel, waaye fas naa yéene, may sax ci di leen ko fàttali.
12Therefore I will not be negligent to remind you of these things, though you know them, and are established in the present truth.
13 Te jàpp naa ko, muy sama warugar, feek maa ngi noyyi, ma di leen fàttali loolu, ba yee leen.
13I think it right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you;
14 Ndaxte xam naa ne, léegi ma jóge fi, ni ma ko Yeesu Krist Boroom bi leerale woon.
14knowing that the putting off of my tent comes swiftly, even as our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.
15 Te dinaa góor-góorlu, ngir sama gannaaw ngeen di fàttaliku li ma leen doon wax.
15Yes, I will make every effort that you may always be able to remember these things even after my departure.
16 Bi nu leen yégalee dooley Yeesu Krist sunu Boroom ak ñëwam ci biir ndam, sukkandikuwunu woon ciy léeb yu sësul fenn, waaye danoo teewe ag màggam.
16For we did not 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.
17 Ndaxte Yàlla Baay bi sol na ko teraanga ak ndam, te baatub Aji Màgg ju tedd ji jib na ne: Sama Doom a ngii, di sama Soppe; ci moom laa ame bànneex.
17For 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.” Matthew 17:5; Mark 9:7; Luke 9:35
18 Te nun dégg nanu baat boobu jóge asamaan, bi nu nekkee ak moom ca tund wu tedd wa.
18We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.
19 Noonu bir na ne, waxu yonent yi wér na, te war ngeen koo fonk; mi ngi mel ni làmp, buy leer ci bérab bu lëndëm, ba kera fajar di xar, te biddiiwub njël bi feq, leeral seeni xol.
19We 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 Waaye jëkkleena xam ne, amul jenn waxu yonent ci Mbind mi, ju balle ci xelu boppam.
20knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of private interpretation.
21 Ndaxte kenn ci yonent yi musula wax ci coobareg boppam, waaye, Xel mu Sell mi daa na xiir nit ñi, ñu yégle kàddug Yàlla.
21For no prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.
