Jude 1
1 Jude, bondman of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called ones beloved in God [the] Father and preserved in Jesus Christ:
Yesu Kristo ɔsomfoɔ Yuda a meyɛ Yakobo nua na metwerɛɛ krataa yi, Mede kɔma wɔn a Onyankopɔn afrɛ wɔn na wɔte Agya Onyankopɔn dɔ ne Yesu Kristo banbɔ mu:
2 Mercy to you, and peace, and love be multiplied.
Mmɔborɔhunu ne ɔdɔ a ɛdɔɔso nka mo.
3 Beloved, using all diligence to write to you of our common salvation, I have been obliged to write to you exhorting [you] to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.
Me nnamfonom, anka merebɔ mmɔden atwerɛ mo afa nkwagyeɛ a yɛn nyinaa te mu no ho. Nanso, ɛsɛ sɛ metwerɛ mo wɔ asɛm foforɔ ho na moyere mo ho gyina nokorɛ a Onyankopɔn de ama ne nkurɔfoɔ afebɔɔ, a ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔsesa mu da biara da.
4 For certain men have got in unnoticed, they who of old were marked out beforehand to this sentence, ungodly [persons], turning the grace of our God into dissoluteness, and denying our only Master and Lord Jesus Christ.
Nnipa bi awiawia wɔn ho abɛfra yɛn mu a wɔkyea asɛm a ɛfa yɛn Onyankopɔn adom no ka sɛ adom no enti abrabɔ bɔne nsɛe hwee. Wɔnnye Yesu Kristo a ɔno nko ara ne yɛn Wura ne yɛn Awurade no nto mu. Atwerɛsɛm no aka wɔn afɔbuo a aba wɔn so no ho asɛm dada.
5 But I would put you in remembrance, you who once knew all things, that the Lord, having saved a people out of [the] land of Egypt, in the second place destroyed those who had not believed.
Ɛwom sɛ monim yeinom dada, nanso mepɛ sɛ mekae mo adwene wɔ ɔgye a Awurade gyee Israelfoɔ firii Misraim asase so na akyire yi, ɔsɛee wɔn a na wɔnnye asɛm no nni no ho.
6 And angels who had not kept their own original state, but had abandoned their own dwelling, he keeps in eternal chains under gloomy darkness, to [the] judgment of [the] great day; (aïdios g126)
Monkae abɔfoɔ a wɔdii tumi trasoɔ ma wɔgyaa wɔn atenaeɛ no. Wɔagu wɔn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn wɔ sum kabii mu, na Onyankopɔn de wɔn asie retwɛn ɛda kɛseɛ no, na wabu wɔn atɛn. (aïdios g126)
7 as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities around them, committing greedily fornication, in like manner with them, and going after other flesh, lie there as an example, undergoing the judgment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
Monkae Sodom ne Gomora ne nkuro a na atwa wɔn ho ahyia no sɛ, na emu nnipa no yɛ adwamanfoɔ. Onyankopɔn twee wɔn aso de yɛɛ nhwɛsoɔ maa wɔn a wɔbɛnya asotwe a ɛde wɔn kɔ ogya a ɛnnum da no mu. (aiōnios g166)
8 Yet in like manner these dreamers also defile [the] flesh, and despise lordship, and speak railingly against dignities.
Saa ɛkwan korɔ no ara so na adaeɛsofoɔ yi nam. Wogu wɔn ankasa onipadua ho fi. Wɔpo tumidie, na wɔka nsɛmmɔne fa animuonyamfoɔ a wɔwɔ ɔsoro ho.
9 But Michael the archangel, when disputing with the devil he reasoned about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a railing judgment against [him], but said, [The] Lord rebuke thee.
Ɔbɔfopanin Mikael mpo nyɛɛ saa da. Ɛberɛ a Mikael ne ɔbonsam repere Mose amu so a akasakasa sii wɔn ntam no mpo, wante ɔbonsam atua, na mmom, asɛm a ɔkaeɛ ara ne sɛ, “Awurade nka wʼanim.”
10 But these, whatever things they know not, they speak railingly against; but what even, as the irrational animals, they understand by mere nature, in these things they corrupt themselves.
Nanso, saa nnipa yi te nneɛma a wɔnte aseɛ ho atua. Sɛdeɛ mmoa a wɔnni nyansa di wɔn atenka akyi no, saa ara na wɔn nso wɔdi wɔn atenka akyi wɔ nneɛma a wɔnte aseɛ ho, na yei de ɔsɛeɛ bɛba wɔn so.
11 Woe to them! because they have gone in the way of Cain, and given themselves up to the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Wɔnnue! Ɛkwan a Kain faa so no ara so na wɔnam. Sikanibereɛ enti, wɔde wɔn ho akɔhyɛ Bileam nnaadaasɛm ase. Wɔate atua atia Onyankopɔn sɛdeɛ Kora yɛeɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ. Yei enti wɔbɛsɛe wɔn.
12 These are spots in your love-feasts, feasting together [with you] without fear, pasturing themselves; clouds without water, carried along by [the] winds; autumnal trees, without fruit, twice dead, rooted up;
Wɔte sɛ nkekaeɛ fi a ɛwɔ wo nua aduane a ɔne wo di mu a wɔmfɛre ho. Wɔn ani ku wɔn ara wɔn ho. Na wɔte sɛ omununkum a ɛsi na mframa bɔ no, nanso osuo ntɔ. Wɔte sɛ nnua a ɛnso aba asusɔberɛ mu. Wɔte sɛ nnua a wɔatutu ne nhini ama awu koraa.
13 raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shames; wandering stars, to whom has been reserved the gloom of darkness for eternity. (aiōn g165)
Wɔte sɛ ɛpo asorɔkye a ano yɛ den a ɛhuru sɛ ahuro da wɔn aniwudeɛ adi. Wɔte sɛ nsoromma a ɛkyinkyini a Onyankopɔn de wɔn asie ɔsɛeɛ esum kabii mu afebɔɔ. (aiōn g165)
14 And Enoch, [the] seventh from Adam, prophesied also as to these, saying, Behold, [the] Lord has come amidst his holy myriads,
Henok, Adam aseni a ɔtɔ no so nsia na ɔhyɛɛ saa nnipa yi ho nkɔm teteete sɛ, “Hwɛ, Awurade ne nʼabɔfoɔ Kronkron mpempem reba,
15 to execute judgment against all; and to convict all the ungodly of them of all their works of ungodliness, which they have wrought ungodlily, and of all the hard [things] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
na wɔabɛbu mo nyinaa atɛn na wɔabu nnebɔneyɛfoɔ nyinaa atɛn wɔ wɔn bɔne a wɔayɛ ne nsɛm a wɔaka atia Onyankopɔn no ho.”
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their lusts; and their mouth speaks swelling words, admiring persons for the sake of profit.
Ɛberɛ biara, saa nnipa yi nwiinwii na wɔde mfomsoɔ to afoforɔ so. Wɔdi wɔn akɔnnɔ akyi. Wɔhoahoa wɔn ho na wɔdaadaa afoforɔ sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔbɛba abɛdi wɔn akyi.
17 But ye, beloved, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Me nnamfonom, monkae nsɛm a yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo asomafoɔ no kaeɛ.
18 that they said to you, that at [the] end of the time there should be mockers, walking after their own lusts of ungodlinesses.
Wɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛ awieeɛ no duru a, nnipa a wɔdi mo ho fɛ bɛba, wɔn a wɔdi wɔn akɔnnɔ akyi.”
19 These are they who set [themselves] apart, natural [men], not having [the] Spirit.
Yeinom ne nnipa a wɔnam wɔn akɔnnɔ so de mpaapaemu ba no. Na wɔnni Honhom no wɔ wɔn mu.
20 But ye, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,
Enti, mo a moyɛ me nnamfonom, metu mo fo sɛ, monkɔ so mmia mo gyidie mu. Mommɔ mpaeɛ wɔ Honhom Kronkron no tumi mu,
21 keep yourselves in the love of God, awaiting the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
na montena Onyankopɔn dɔ mu ɛberɛ a moretwɛn yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo wɔ nʼahummɔborɔ mu ama wama mo nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ no. (aiōnios g166)
22 And of some have compassion, making a difference,
Monhunu wɔn a wɔn gyidie sua mmɔbɔ.
23 but others save with fear, snatching [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Montwe wɔn mfiri ogya mu nnye wɔn nkwa. Momfa suro nhunu wɔn mmɔbɔ, na monkyiri ntadeɛ a wɔn bɔne nkekaeɛ akeka mu.
24 But to him that is able to keep you without stumbling, and to set [you] with exultation blameless before his glory,
Na deɛ ɔbɛtumi asɔ mo mu na moanhwinti, na ɔde mo asi nʼanimuonyam anim sɛ nnipa a wɔnni dɛm wɔ ahosane mu no,
25 to the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, [be] glory, majesty, might, and authority, from before the whole age, and now, and to all the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Onyankopɔn korɔ a ɔnam yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo so yɛ yɛn Agyenkwa no, ɔno na animuonyam ne kɛseyɛ ne ahoɔden ne tumi nka no mmerɛ a atwam, ne ɛnnɛ ne daa nyinaa. Amen. (aiōn g165)
