犹大书 1
1 这封信函来自耶稣基督的仆人、雅各的兄弟犹大，写给那些被蒙招之人，那些被父上帝所爱、由受耶稣基督保护之人。
Jude, slave of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called, those who have been sanctified by God the Father and preserved through Jesus Christ:
2 愿你们感受到上帝更多的怜悯、平安和慈爱。
May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.
3 我的朋友们，我非常期待在信中讲述我们所分享的救赎。但现在我需要通过信函紧急告诉你们，鼓励你们大力捍卫关于上帝的真理，这些真理已经一次性且永远地全部赐给上帝的圣徒。
Dear ones, while I was really intent on writing to you about the salvation we share, I had a compulsion to write exhorting you to contend earnestly for the Faith once for all committed to the saints.
4 因为有些人悄悄混入你们中间。很久以前就有人写到他们，对他们进行谴责，因为他们是邪恶之人，歪曲上帝的恩典，将其变成不道德的放纵行为，同时否认我们的主和主耶稣基督。
Because certain men, who were marked out for this condemnation long ago, have sneaked in; they are godless, perverting the grace of our God into licentiousness and denying the only Sovereign God, even our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 尽管你们已经知道了，但我还是要提醒你们，主虽然把他的百姓从埃及的土地上救了出来，但后来他还是毁灭了那些不信之人。
So I want to remind you, though you already know this, that the Lord delivered a people out of the land of Egypt yet later destroyed those who did not believe.
And the angels who did not keep their proper domain but deserted their own dwelling He has kept bound in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns—who gave themselves up to fornication and went after a different kind of flesh in a manner similar to those angels—stand as an example, undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 同样，这些梦想家污染了自己的身体藐视权威，毁谤神圣之人。
Likewise these dreamers in their turn both defile flesh and reject authority and slander celestial beings.
9 即使是天使长米迦勒，当他为了摩西的尸体与魔鬼争论时，也不敢用毁谤的语言定他的罪，只说：“愿主责备你！”
Yet even Michael the archangel, when taking issue with the devil—he was arguing about Moses' corpse—did not dare to pronounce a reviling judgment, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you!”
10 但这些人嘲笑他们不理解的东西；而他们理解的东西却像不思考的动物一样本能地追随--这就是摧毁他们的原因。。
But these speak abusively against whatever they do not understand, while whatever they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals—by these things they are ruined.
11 他们现在面对可怕的灾祸，因为他们走上了该隐的道路，就像巴兰和他的妄想，他们出于利益的动机而放弃了自己。就像可拉和他的叛乱，他们毁灭了自己。
Woe to them, because they have taken the way of Cain, have rushed into Balaam's error for profit, and have destroyed themselves in Korah's rebellion!
12 这些人破坏其他人的饭菜，因为他们是自私的牧羊人，没有丝毫羞耻心，只顾自己。它们是被风吹走的云，不会带来雨水。它们是光秃秃的树，不会结果——两次死亡，连根拔起。
These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, joining the feast without fear, caring only for themselves; they are clouds without rain, carried along by winds; they are late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead (having been uprooted);
they are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their own shameful acts; they are wandering stars, for whom the black of the darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 亚当第七世孙以诺也曾对这些人做出预言：“看！主正在与他千万圣者降临，
Now even Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men saying: “Look, the Lord is coming with ten thousands of His holy ones
15 审判众人，揭露世人所做的一切恶事，以及敌对的罪人对其说的所有可怕之语。”
to execute judgment on everyone and to convict all the godless among them of all their godless deeds that they have godlessly perpetrated, also of all the harsh things they have spoken against Him—the godless sinners!”
16 这样的人总是在发牢骚，总是在抱怨。他们追随自己的邪恶欲望，自吹自擂，通过奉承他人获得他们想要的东西。
These men are grumblers and complainers, living according to their own evil desires; they talk big, flattering people to gain advantage.
17 但你们呢，亲爱朋友们，请记住我们主耶稣基督的使徒从前所说的话。
But you, dear ones, remember the words that were spoken before by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:
18 他们曾向你们解释：在末世，必有喜欢嘲弄之人，追随自己的邪恶欲望。
how they told you that in the last time there will be scoffers who live according to their own godless desires.
19 这些人会分裂，他们是没有灵的世俗之人。
These are the ones who cause division; they are ‘soulish’, not having a spirit.
20 但我的朋友们，你们要通过对上帝的信任来成就自己。以圣灵的名义进行祈祷，
But you, dear ones, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,
keep yourselves in God's love, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ into eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 向心里疑惑之人予以怜悯；
Now be merciful to some, making a distinction;
23 在你力所能及的情况下，把他们从火中抢救出来。显示你的怜悯，但要非常小心，甚至要憎恨那些被罪恶人性污染的“衣服。”
but others save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
24 现在，通过我们的主耶稣基督，愿那可以保护你们不会坠落的主，那能以无可挑剔的方式带来极大喜乐、将你们带到其荣耀之地的主，
Now to Him who is able to keep them from stumbling and to present them before His glorious presence without fault and with exultation—
