< Jude 1 >
1 Jesuh Khrih kah sal, James kah a mana Judah loh Pa Pathen lamloh a lungnah tih Jesuh Khrih ah khoem tangtae la a khue rhoek taengah kan yaak sak.
Jude a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified in God the Father, and who are preserved and called in Jesus Christ;
2 Rhennah, ngaimongnah neh lungnah tah nangmih taegah ping saeh.
mercy, and peace, and love be multiplied unto you.
3 Thintlo rhoek, mamih kah khangnah pakhat te nangmih taengah daek ham thahluenah muep om. Hlangcim rhoek taengah a paek tangnah te rhenten tungaep ham neh hloep ham te nangmih taengah kan daek he a kueknah la ka hmuh.
Beloved, having an earnest desire to write to you concerning the common salvation, I was under a necessity of writing to exhort you that ye would strive earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.
4 Hlang a ngen tah hawn uh coeng. Te rhoek tah laitloeknah ham ana daek dingrhae coeng he. Baltalh rhoek loh mamih Pathen kah lungvatnah te omthenbawnnah la a thovael uh tih mamih kah a boeikung neh boeipa Jesuh Khrih paengrhaeng te a hnawt uh.
For there have crept in some men, who have been of old described as under this condemnation, impious people, that turn the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and deny God the only Lord, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 Nangmih thoelh sak ka cai te boeih na ming uh coeng. Boeipa loh a pilnam te Egypt kho lamkah rhenten a hlawt tih aka tangnah pawt rhoek te a pabae ah a phae te ta.
But I would remind you of this, which ye know already, that though the Lord saved the people out of the land of Egypt, yet He afterwards destroyed those that believed not:
6 Te phoeiah a hmakhuen te a ngaithuen uh pawt tih a imlo aka toeng puencawn rhoek te laitloeknah khohnin puei ham a hmuepnah khuiah hloong neh dungyan a khoh coeng. (aïdios )
and the angels that kept not their primitive state, but left their proper abode, hath He reserved in everlasting chains, under darkness, to the judgement of the great day: (aïdios )
7 Sodom neh Gomorrah neh a taengvai khopuei rhoek bangla te rhoek kah omih te phek om. Cukhalh uh tih pumsa hnukah a hloeh la aka cet tah dungyan dantatnah hmai a yook te cueihlohnah lo a tawn coeng. (aiōnios )
as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them, in like manner with them committing lewdness, and going after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of perpetual fire. (aiōnios )
8 Amih vanbangla aka man long khaw pumsa la boi uh. Te dongah taemrhainah te a hnawt uh tih thangpomnah te a soehsal uh.
So these vile dreamers also defile the flesh, despise authority, and speak evil of dignities.
9 Tedae puencawn boei Maikhael loh Moses kah rhok kawng ah rhaithae te a boelhkhoeh tih a oelh. Te vaengah soehsalnah a hong tih laitloeknah te a ngaingaih pawt dongah, “Boeipa loh nang n'toel saeh,” a ti nah.
Whereas Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, did not presume to bring against him a railing accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke thee."
10 Tedae amih loh a soehsal uh te rhep a ming uh moenih. A omnoek nen te suva bangla khohmang rhaita la a hmat uh tih te nen te poeih uh.
But these men speak evil of what they know not: and what they know naturally, as brute animals, in these things they are corrupt.
11 Anunae amih aih, Kain kah longpuei ah pongpa uh. Balaam kah tholhhiknah thapang te a suntlak thil uh tih Korah kah pakainah dongah poci uh.
Wo unto them; for they have gone in the way of Cain, and been carried away by Balaam's error, the love of lucre, and perished as in the contradiction of Korah.
12 Na lungnah rhoek te tah thaelngong ah om tih loloh cahnoo uh. Amamih dawndah uh thae dae khohli loh khomai tuihang bangla a khuen. Cangpa thingkung aka hul tah a phuk tih hnavoei la duek.
These are spots in your love-feasts, feeding themselves without fear, when they are feasting with you: clouds without water, carried about by the winds; trees withered and without fruit, twice dead and rooted up; raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame;
13 Tuitunli kah tuiphu aka lueng loh amih kah yahkoi te a hom sak. Aisi hlangpoeng rhoek loh amih te yinnah khuikah a hmuepnah ah kumhal duela a khoem. (aiōn )
wandering stars, for whom blackness of darkness is reserved for ever. (aiōn )
14 Te dongah Adam lamloh a parhih kah Enok long khaw amih taengah a phong tih, “Boeipa tah amah kah hlangcim rhoek a thawngsang neh ha pawk coeng ke.
And Enoch the seventh from Adam prophesied against these, saying, Behold the Lord cometh with his holy myriads,
15 A cungkuem te laitloeknah saii ham neh amih kah hlangrhong khoboe boeih kongah hinglu boeih te toeltham ham om. Te nen te halang uh tih a cungkuem dongah mangkhak uh. Amah khaw te nen te hlangtholh neh baltalh la a cal thil uh.
to pass judgement upon all, and to convict all the ungodly among them of all their wicked works, which they have impiously committed, and of all the hard things which impious sinners have spoken against Him.
16 Amih tah kohuetkung neh muenyang la om uh. Amamih kah hoehhamnah bangla cet uh. Amih kah ka te khaw a puehkan la cal. Amah kah hoeikhangnah ham maelhmai a koeh uh.
These are murmurers, complainers, who walk according to their own irregular desires; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, with admiration of certain persons for some advantage of their own.
17 Tedae thintlo nangmih tah, mamih Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah caeltueih rhoek lamloh a thui ollung te poek uh.
But, beloved, remember the words which were formerly spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; for they told you,
18 Nangmih taengah, “Khohnin hnukkhueng ah tamdaengkung rhoek om ni, amih te hoehhamnah ah hlangrhong la pongpa uh,” a ti uh.
that in the latter days there will be scoffers, walking according to their own impious lusts.
19 Amih tah aka paekboe sak rhoek ni. A coengnah loh mueihla a khueh uh moenih.
These are they who separate themselves, sensualists, not having the Spirit.
20 Tedae thintlo rhoek, nangmih loh namamih kah tangnah cim dongah namamih te tlingtlawn uh lamtah Mueihla Cim ah thangthui uh.
But ye, beloved, edifying yourselves in your most holy faith, and praying in the holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God,
21 Pathen kah lungnah dongah namamih te tuem uh. Dungyan hingnah ham mamih Boeipa Jesuh Khrih kah rhennah te lamtawn uh. (aiōnios )
looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios )
22 Aka boelhkhoeh te khaw rhen uh mai.
And on some have compassion, making a difference; others save with fear,
23 Te dongah amih a poelyoe rhoek te hmai khui lamloh khang uh. A tloe rhoek te rhihnah nen khaw rhen uh. Pumsa kah a nook angki te khaw tuei uh.
as snatching them out of the fire: hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Te long te na paicak ham n'tuem tih a thangpomnah hmaiah kohoenah neh a cuemthuek la m'pai sak thai coeng.
Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy:
25 Mamih khangkung Pathen bueng te mamih kah Boeipa Jesuh Khrih rhangneh thangpomnah, Boeilennah, thaomnah neh saithainah loh khosuen daengrhae hlan neh tahae lamkah kumhal boeih ah om saeh. Amen. (aiōn )
to the only wise God our Saviour be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and for ever. Amen. (aiōn )
