< Jude 1 >

1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and the brother of James, to those of God's selection who have been made holy by God the Father and are kept safe for Jesus Christ:
Jesu Khrih a tyihzawih pynoet na ak awm Jakob a naa, Juda ing, Khy na awm nawh, Pa Khawsa ing a lungnaak Jesu Khrih ak caming khoem na ak awmkhqi venawh:
2 May mercy and peace and love be increased in you.
Am qeennaak, ngaihding naak ingkaw lungnaak ce nangmih aham khawzah awm seh.
3 My loved ones, while my thoughts were full of a letter which I was going to send you about our common salvation, it was necessary for me to send you one requesting you with all my heart to go on fighting strongly for the faith which has been given to the saints once and for ever.
Ka lungnaak ka pyikhqi, kaimih ing ka mik kqawn thaawngnaak akawng ce qee aham ngaih soeih hlai nyng, thlakciimkhqi boeih a venawh hypboet peek na ak awm cangnaak awh ngaih tlypnaak nami taak aham ca qee aham poek nyng.
4 For certain men have come among you secretly, marked out before in the holy Writings for this evil fate, men without the fear of God, turning his grace into an unclean thing, and false to our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
Ikawtih maa na nangmih ak khuiawh ang hyp na ak kun thlakche na ak awm thlang pynoet akawng ce qee na awm hawh hy. Cemyih ak thlangkhqi cetaw Khawsa amak sim, Khawsa qeennaak nu ingkaw pa thawlhnaak benna ak hawi lat ingkaw ningnih a sawsang soeih ingkaw Bawipa Jesu Khrih ak oelhkhqi na awm uhy.
5 Now it is my purpose to put you in mind, though you once had knowledge of all these things, of how the Lord, having taken a people safely out of Egypt, later sent destruction on those who had no faith;
Vemyihkhqi ve sim boeih hawh hlai uhyk ti, Bawipaing ak thlangkhqi ce Izip qam awhkawng sawi hy, cehlai a hu nataw amak cangnaak thlangkhqi ce him hy.
6 And the angels who did not keep to their kingdom but went out from the place which was theirs, he has put in eternal chains and in dark night till the great day of the judging. (aïdios g126)
A mimah a saithainaak dyih hun awh a awm poe kaana a mimah a im a mik cehtaak khan ceityihkhqi – ce thannaak ak khuiawh tahy, awidengnaak khawnyn bau awh awi deng aham kumqui thiqui ing khit hy. (aïdios g126)
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the towns near them, having like these, given themselves up to unclean desires and gone after strange flesh, have been made an example, undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
Cemyih lawtna, Sodom ingkaw Gomorrah ingkaw a kengsam awhkaw khawkhqi ing nu ingkaw pa thawlh sainaak awh a mimah ingkaw a mimah ce pe qu uhy. Kumqui mai awh ak khuikha thlangkhqi aham dan kawina a mingmih ce awm uhy. (aiōnios g166)
8 In the same way these dreamers make the flesh unclean, having no respect for authorities, and say evil of rulers.
Cemyih bai lawtna, vemyihna mang ak hankhqi ing a mimah a pum ce tyih ak cu na sai uhy, saithainaak ak takhqi ce qoeng unawh, khawnghi na ak awmkhqi ce ak che na kqawn uhy.
9 Now when Michael, one of the chief angels, was fighting against the Evil One for the body of Moses, fearing to make use of violent words against him, he only said, May the Lord be your judge.
Cehlai khan ceityih hqam Mikal ing zani Mosi a pum ce setan ing a ning qawt qu awh, ak che na anih ak khanawh thawlh puk aham kqih nawh, “Bawipa ing ni zyi seh!” tina hy.
10 But these men say evil about such things as they have no knowledge of; and the things of which they have natural knowledge, like beasts without reason, are the cause of their destruction.
Cehlai ve ak thlangkhqi ingtaw ama ming zaksim ik-oeih ingkaw cyihnaak ing a sim ik-oeih ak khanawh awm qamsa amyihna poeknaak a taak kaana amak thym na ak che na kqawn uhy – vemyihkhqi ing a mingmih ce plawci sak khqi hy.
11 A curse on them! They have gone in the way of Cain, running uncontrolled into the error of Balaam for reward, and have come to destruction by saying evil against the Lord, like Korah.
Khaw na map uhy! Kain a lam ce hquut uhy; hawihkhangnaak ami ngaih aih awh Balam a sai thawlhnaak khuiawh cawn uhy; Korah a qaal thawhnaak awh plawci kang hawh uhy.
12 These men are unseen rocks at your love-feasts, when they take part in them with you, keepers of sheep who without fear take the food of the sheep; clouds without water rushing before the wind, wasted trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots,
Vemih ak thlangkhqi ve nangmih lungnaak buhveel kung awh coet ak kap na awm uhy, ngaihseetnaak tehca awm a taak kaana nangmih anglakawh buh ai uhy – amah ingkaw amah doeng ak cah qu tuukhaikhqi na awm uhy. Zilh ing a zawn mailai khawtlan tui amak awm cingmaikhqi ni; ak kqa nakawng phu qu nawh ak thaih amak awm, lo mai awhkaw thing – hih voei na ak thikhqi ni.
13 Violent waves of the sea, streaming with their shame, wandering stars for whom the darkest night is kept in store for ever. (aiōn g165)
Tuicunli awhkaw tuibak ak tho, chahnaak ak awm ik-oeih ak cunkhqi ingkaw ak cet hyhy aihchikhqi ni, a mingmih aham kumqui na ak hyp thannaak ce taak peek ce na awm hawh hy. (aiōn g165)
14 The prophet Enoch, who was the seventh after Adam, said of these men, The Lord came with tens of thousands of his saints,
Adam awhkawng ak khqih naak Enok ing ve ak thlangkhqi akawng ve anak kqawn oepchoeh hy: “Toek lah, Bawipa taw amah ak thlangciim thong sang ingkaw
15 To be the judge of all, and to give a decision against all those whose lives are unpleasing to him, because of the evil acts which they have done, and because of all the hard things which sinners without fear of God have said against him.
Khawsa amak sim thlangkhqi boeih ing Khawsa ak kawngaih am na Khawsa ak kawngaih am lam awh amah ak kawngaih doeng ak hquut, thlang ak theetkhqi ce law kaw,” tinawh kqawn law uhy.
16 These are the men who make trouble, ever desiring change, going after evil pleasures, using high-sounding words, respecting men's position in the hope of reward.
Vemih ak thlangkhqi ve nangmih anik pek thlangkhqi ni, khawmdek simnaak mai mai ak hquut thlangkhqi na awm unawh myihla am ta uhy.
17 But you, my loved ones, keep in memory the words which were said before by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Cehlai ka pyikhqi, ningnih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih a ceityihkhqi ing ami nak kqawn ce ce poek lah uh.
18 How they said to you, In the last days there will be men who, guided by their evil desires, will make sport of holy things.
Cekkhqi ing nangmih a venawh, “A tym a hukhit na taw Khawsa ak kawngaih am a mimah a hy ngaihnaak a hu awh amik cet thlang ak kqawn chekhqi awm law kaw,” tinawh a mik kqawn law ce.
19 These are the men who make divisions, natural men, not having the Spirit.
Cekkhqi ing nangmih ce ni pek khqi kaw, cekkhqi taw khawmdek simnaak ak hquut zapkhqi ingkaw Myihla amak ta ak thlangkhqi ni.
20 But you, my loved ones, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, and making prayers in the Holy Spirit,
Cehlai ka lungnaak ka pyikhqi, nangmih taw cangnaak ak ciim ing dyi unawh taw Ciim Myihla awh cykcah lah uh.
21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for life eternal through the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Nangmih a venawh kumqui hqingnaak ak haw law hly kawi ningnih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih ce nami qeh amyihna Khawsa a lungnaak ing awm lah uh. (aiōnios g166)
22 And have pity on those who are in doubt;
Upvoetnaak kawlung ak ta thlangkhqi venawh qeennaak ta law uh;
23 And to some give salvation, pulling them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the clothing which is made unclean by the flesh.
mai ak khuiawh kawng thlang ce qawt law unawh taw hul law lah uh; thlang a venawh qeennaak dang law sak uh, kqihnaak ing pumsa thawlhnaak ing ak sui a bai ce sawh law na uh.
24 Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to give you a place in his glory, free from all evil, with great joy,
Nangmih anik thawh khqi thaikung ingkaw amah a boeimangnaak a haiawh thawlhnaak a awm kaana zeelnaak ak bau soeih nangmih anik pekung –
25 To the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, let us give glory and honour and authority and power, before all time and now and for ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
Khawsa ningnih a Hulkung doeng a venawh thangleeknaak, boeimang naak, thaawm naak ingkaw saithainaak, Jesu Khrih ningnih a Bawipa ak caming ak cykca ingkaw tuh awhkawng kumqui dyna awm seh! Amen. (aiōn g165)
