Jude 1
1 yabuza vrenko yesu Kristi vayi Yakubu: hi ni wa ba yoba bi son u irji iti nibu wa ba baunzi ni kristi.
Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called beloved in God the Father, and kept in Jesus Christ.
2 du losron mba sisron ni son ndi he niyii.
Mercy to you, and peace, and divine love be multiplied.
3 bi son mi si hainiyu ndi ha mi wu ni tu kpa wawu bin, abi ndi mi ngron yi nitre kpa yesu wa mba nu yii bi wu rji.
Beloved, making all haste to write to you concerning our common salvation, I had need to write to you, exhorting you to agonize for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
4 indji mbd ri mba rin ni riyabi wa mba ra nitu bla mba tun tse mu indji wa mbo to te ndidina, mba bri ziziwu rji rida kgba hi ni meme. mba ma kpa myerne mi kon rji mbu yesu Almasihu.
For certain men have crept in, who long ago were written down to this judgment, ungodly, transforming the grace of God into impurity, even denying Jesus Christ, our only Sovereign and Lord.
5 mi si son la ni wu, bi to igzi wami sison la niwu ye; lrji kpa indji mba ri chuwo ni meme masar; ni kwugon a wu mba bi, bi wa mba kpan myemen niwu ria.
But I wish you to remember, once having known all these things, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, destroyed them that believed riot, the second time:
6 malaiku wa mba na gji mbu mbu ndima wu mba na, mba bri mbu mbu son ndima. irji lumba ni saraka hra ise ni se, ni mi shigji biu be nifi wu mbla. (aïdios g126)
and the angels who kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, has he kept in eternal chains unto darkness unto the judgment of the great day: (aïdios g126)
7 mba he na sadurna ni gwarnrata ni gbugbulu wa mba whir whire ni mba, bewa mba turma iyo ni te meme rida wu iypi wa kpan ni wan. mba hena na bi wa mba shaya ne mi lu wama nwena. (aiōnios g166)
as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, in a manner like unto them committing fornication, and going after other flesh, present an example receiving the vengeance of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 anakyii bi hira ramba mba kpan mba te meme mba kpa be chu ni tdri nda ni la meme tre nitu bi te ndidi.
Likewise indeed these dreamers also pollute the flesh, and reject lordship, and blaspheme glories.
9 makailu kyke malaika nitu a si gbi sroun ni iblis nitu kgbu misa ana nyamba shistri rida zre meme tre ritu blama na. nitu wayii, rji nitu ma ndi jatun ine.
But Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed over the body of Moses, did not dare to bring against him a judgment of blasphemy, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 indji bi liyi si mbata niwu nitu iypi mbanato na. indji bi yii inba he ni limre ngnama rju mba gji ukwu si yae ni gba mba.
But these blaspheme so many things as they know not: and so many things as they understand naturally, like irrational animals, in these they are corrupted.
11 iyaki biwu mba wukon kayinu mba yotun mba ni te meme batamu ndu wa gbu gpiri. mba wutuma ni ufu iri mba kora.
Woe unto them! because they have gone off in the way of Cain, and in the delusion of Balaam they have been seduced by reward, and they perished in the gainsaying of Korah.
12 indi bi iyii mba meme indji nimiri biri isonbi wanmbari ni yi mbak wussa, bi gru wa ri nitu mba, mba npan wa agji uumba ngugun ye na. mba kwugron wa mba gji nkolo ma yena.
These are rocks in your love-feasts, feasting along with you without fear shepherdizing themselves, clouds without water, driven away by the winds; withered trees, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 mba bi kwu, ribibuju mba tu mba rji ni jan ma. mba nei bi tsra mba vfu vo nifu ni shan mba. mba he na tstsi wa mba tsre brakaueme ni mi shigji bwu hi ni se gbuwu. (aiōn g165)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own disgraces; wandering stars, for which the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 ahnuhu idiji wu tagban rji Adamu, atre ru tu mba, nda la ya irji ni ye meme bi zizinma dubu dubbai.
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied against these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with his myriads of saints,
15 asiye wa ari blaatre konni indji asiye wa ni bla yre indji bi te meme, indun mba wa atre ni tu kon na. wa mba te ni kon meme ma; ni la bi meme ni bi latre wa mba tre ni tuma.
to execute judgment against all, and to convict all the ungodly of them for all the works of their ungodliness which they have impiously done, and for all their hard speeches which they have spoken against him, being ungodly sinners.
16 biyii bi tre che, bi tre gbrugbo wamba wu meme te mba mba ni bru ni ni sandon tu mba mba trece nitie.
These are querulous grumblers, going forth according to their own lusts; and their mouth speaking swelling words, admiring persons for the sake of gain.
17 amawu kauritau tauna tre wa me tsi tre niwu kwugon ni marizanni yesu Almasihunmu wa mba laniwu tu ru tse.
But you, beloved, remember the words which have hitherto been spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 mba laruwu ni tun kykle indji bi che mba he mba wu kon mba wu meme.
that they said to you, At the last time there will be mockers, walking according to their own lusts after ungodly things.
19 abi wa mba hantu indji mba bi wu gbugbulu mba na he ni ruhuna.
These are they who are sidetracking [the people], intellectual, not having the Spirit.
20 Bi Ijii Kaunatu, men tu bi ni keh tsatsare ma, ndi bra ni mi ruhu wu tsatsare.
But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Gji kpan bi ni son Rji, ndi nta gpi losron inji mbu Yesu Almasihu wa ni nuta re wu ise ni se. (aiōnios g166)
keep yourselves in the divine love of God, receiving the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Tsro son ni biwa na kpanyemena.
And some of whom indeed convict, being judged:
23 Mba ri chuwo ni nyu lu. Tsron indji mbari ni tsitsir, kamen ni nglo wa yin kpa mba teimeme.
and some save, seizing them out of the fire; and some pity in their fear, you indeed hating the garment having been spotted by carnality.
24 Wa ahe ni gpengble wa asi ndi na kgbu zam na, wa ni zo wa kri ni shishi ni kpa'n ndidi'ma ni sroun ndindi'ma.
But to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to establish you blameless in the presence of his glory with rejoicing.
25 Irji mbu ni wa kpata juwo ni wo Yesu Kristi Irji mbu, ndindima, ngpengblema, ni he ma, ikon ma, ni fin wawu, zizan ni se ni se ahema. (Amen). (aiōn g165)
to God our only Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and power, before every age, both now, and unto all the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
