< Jude 1 >
1 To those who, having received the call, have been loved by God the Father and protected by Jesus Christ, From Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and the brother of James.
Ri Judas patanil re ri Jesucristo, xuqujeꞌ rachalal ri Jacobo, chike ri e sikꞌital apanoq xuqujeꞌ e loqꞌ pa Dios Tataxel e yaktal pa Jesucristo:
2 May mercy, peace, and love be yours in ever increasing measure.
Toqꞌobꞌsabꞌal wach, jaꞌmaril xuqujeꞌ loqꞌanik chuya ri Dios chiꞌwe.
3 Dear friends, while I was making every effort to write to you about our common salvation, I felt that I must write to you at once to encourage you to fight in defense of the faith that has once for all been entrusted to the keeping of Christ’s people.
Loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, sibꞌalaj urayim na kꞌuꞌx kintzꞌibꞌaj chiꞌwe chirij ri koltajem ri xyaꞌtaj chaqe. Kawaj kꞌut chi kikoj ichuqꞌabꞌ chujeqebꞌaxik ri ikojobꞌal ri xya chike konojel ri e Tyoxalaj taq winaq.
4 For there have crept in among you certain godless people, whose sentence has long since been pronounced, and who make the mercy of God an excuse for profligacy, and disown our only lord and master, Jesus Christ.
Jeriꞌ rumal cher e kꞌi winaq xoꞌk chiꞌxoꞌl, we winaq riꞌ ojer qꞌattal chi loq tzij pa kiwiꞌ rumal cher e rech chi wi ri kꞌax. Itzel taq winaq kakibꞌij chi utz kemakun pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios xuqujeꞌ kakawoj ri xa jun kwinel laj Ajawxel Jesucristo.
5 Now I want to remind you – but you already know it all – that, though the Lord delivered the people from Egypt, yet he afterward destroyed those who refused to believe in him;
Pune iwetaꞌm chik ronojel waꞌ we jastaq riꞌ, kawaj kinnaꞌtaj chiꞌwe chi ri Ajawxel are xeꞌresaj loq ri utinimit pa Egipto, xukꞌis kan pa kiwiꞌ ri man xekojon ta che.
6 and that even those angels, who did not keep to their appointed spheres, but left their proper homes, have been kept by him for the judgment of the great day in everlasting chains and black darkness. (aïdios )
Xuqujeꞌ ri angelibꞌ ri man xkibꞌan ta ri xbꞌix chike xane xkitzaq kanoq ri kachoch ri yaꞌtal rumal ri Dios, e tzꞌapital pa ri qꞌequꞌmal kamik xaq kayeꞌm ri nimalaj qꞌij are kaqꞌat tzij pa kiwiꞌ. (aïdios )
7 Like Sodom and Gomorrah and the towns near them, which gave themselves up to fornication, and fell into unnatural vice, these angels now stand out as a warning, undergoing, as they are, punishment in eternal fire. (aiōnios )
Jewaꞌ xuqujeꞌ xkꞌulmataj kukꞌ ri tinimit Sodoma xuqujeꞌ ri tinimit Gomorra xuqujeꞌ ri tinimit ri e kꞌo chikinaqaj jeriꞌ rumal cher xemakunik xkibꞌan mak kukꞌ taq achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ kukꞌ ixoqibꞌ, xuqujeꞌ xkibꞌan ri man taqal ta ubꞌanik rumal riꞌ ri Dios xutaq loq qꞌaqꞌ pa kiwiꞌ ri man kꞌo ta ukꞌisik. (aiōnios )
8 Yet in the same way these people, too, cherishing vain dreams, pollute our human nature, reject control, and malign the celestial beings.
Pune jeriꞌ we achyabꞌ riꞌ e bꞌanal taq achikꞌ, kakibꞌan mak rukꞌ ri kityoꞌjal, keꞌketzelaj ri qꞌatal taq tzij xuqujeꞌ kakibꞌij ri awas ubꞌixik chike ri kwinem rech chikajil.
9 Yet even Michael, the archangel, when, in his dispute with the devil, he was arguing about the body of Moses, did not venture to charge him with maligning, but said merely ‘The Lord rebuke you!’
Ri kinimal ri angelibꞌ Miguel man ne xubꞌij ta jun itzel tzij che ri itzel are xechꞌoꞌjin puꞌwiꞌ ri utyoꞌjal ri Moisés, man xuqꞌat ta tzij puꞌwiꞌ rukꞌ kꞌaxal xane xwi xubꞌij che: “¡Are ri Ajawxel Dios chatyajowoq!”
10 But these people malign whatever they do not understand; while they use such things as they know by instinct (like the animals that have no reason) for their own corruption.
Are kꞌu we winaq riꞌ, kakibꞌij ri awas ubꞌixik che ronojel ri man kakichꞌobꞌ taj. Jer e kꞌo ri awajibꞌ kakibꞌan ri kubꞌij ri kichomabꞌal chike, rumal waꞌ kakꞌis na tzij pa kiwiꞌ.
11 Alas for them! They walk in the steps of Cain; led astray by Balaam’s love of gain, they plunge into sin, and meet their ruin through rebellion like Korah.
¡Kꞌax kech rumal cher xkitereneꞌj ri ubꞌe ri Caín! Xkibꞌan kech jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Balaam xkikꞌam pwaq tojbꞌal rech ubꞌanik ri etzelal, man xeniman taj jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Coré.
12 These are the people who are blots on your ‘love-feasts,’ when they feast together and provide without scruple for themselves alone. They are clouds without rain, driven before the winds; they are leafless trees without a vestige of fruit, dead through and through, torn up by the roots;
We winaq riꞌ e chꞌuluj ri kekꞌojiꞌ pa ri iriqoj ibꞌ, man kakimochꞌ ta kibꞌ xaq aꞌreꞌ kakiyuqꞌuj kibꞌ, jer e kꞌo ri sutzꞌ ri man kꞌo ta jabꞌ chupam e kꞌamtal bꞌik rumal ri kyaqiqꞌ kepaqiꞌk kexuliꞌk. Jer e kꞌo ri cheꞌ ri man kawachin taj, kebꞌ mul e kaminaq, kejunumataj rukꞌ ri cheꞌ ri man tikil ta chi ri ukꞌaꞌmal pa ri ulew.
13 they are wild sea waves, foaming with their own shame; they are ‘wandering stars,’ for which the blackest darkness has been reserved for ever. (aiōn )
Kejunumataj rukꞌ ri jaꞌ re ri plo man kakꞌix taj karesaj loq ri uwusuw ri ukꞌixibꞌal. Jer e kꞌo ri chꞌumil ri man ketaꞌm taj jaw kebꞌe wi, we winaq riꞌ e yaktalik rech kekꞌyaq bꞌik pa ri nimalaj qꞌequꞌmal. (aiōn )
14 To these people, as to others, Enoch, the seventh in descent from Adam, declared – ‘See! The Lord has come with his hosts of holy ones around him,
Are waꞌ ri xutzijoj loq ri Enoc, wuqubꞌ qꞌalajisal tzij xchapleꞌtaj loq rajilaxik rukꞌ ri Adán, xubꞌij: “Chiwilampeꞌ, ri Ajawxel kape na e rachiꞌl sibꞌalaj e kꞌi u angelibꞌ.
15 to execute judgment on all people, and to convict all godless people of all their godless acts, which in their ungodliness they have committed, and of all the harsh words which they have spoken against him, godless sinners that they are!’
Rech kuluqꞌata tzij pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq ri itzel taq winaq, xuqujeꞌ che ronojel ri itzel taq chak ri kibꞌanom xuqujeꞌ ri kibꞌim kꞌaxa taq tzij che.”
16 These people are always murmuring, and complaining of their lot; they follow where their passions lead them; they have arrogant words on their lips; and they flatter others for the sake of what they can get from them.
We winaq riꞌ kakibꞌij itzel taq tzij pa kanimaꞌ, are kakitereneꞌj ri itzel taq kirayinik, nimal chike, keꞌkitaqchiꞌj nikꞌaj chik chubꞌanik mak rech kakikꞌamawaꞌj ri kakaj.
17 But you should, dear friends, recall what was foretold by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Ri ix kꞌut loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, naꞌtaj chiꞌwe ri tzij ri xkitzijoj loq ri e taqoꞌn rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo,
18 how they used to say to you – ‘As time draws to an end, there will be scoffers, who will be led by their godless passions.’
xkibꞌij: “Pa taq ri kꞌisbꞌal taq qꞌij kepe na winaq ri xaq aꞌj yoqꞌolobꞌ, ri are kakitereneꞌj na ri itzel taq kirayinik.”
19 These are the people – animal and unspiritual – who cause divisions.
Are waꞌ ri kekojow chꞌoꞌj chikixoꞌl ri alaxik rech keꞌkiqꞌat bꞌik, xuqujeꞌ are kakibꞌan ri urayibꞌal kikꞌuꞌx, rumal cher man kꞌo ta ri Uxlabꞌixel pa kanimaꞌ.
20 But you must, dear friends, build up your characters on the foundation of your most holy faith, pray under the guidance of the Holy Spirit,
Are kꞌu ri ix loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, chixjeqeloq pa ri uloqꞌanik ri Dios, chixkꞌiyoq pa ri Tyoxalaj kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ chibꞌana chꞌawem pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, rech jeriꞌ kiwayeꞌj chi ri Ajawxel Jesucristo pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ kuya na chiꞌwe kꞌaslemal ri maj ukꞌisik. (aiōnios )
21 and keep within the love of God, while waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, to bring you to eternal life. (aiōnios )
22 To some show pity, because they are in doubt. ‘Drag them out of the fire,’ and save them.
Chitoqꞌobꞌisaj kiwach ri winaq ri kubꞌan kebꞌ kikꞌuꞌx.
23 To others show pity, but with caution, hating the clothing polluted by their touch.
Chiꞌtoꞌ nikꞌaj chik rech man kebꞌe ta pa ri qꞌaqꞌ. Chel ikꞌuꞌx chike nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ chiwetzelaj ri atzꞌyaq ri uchꞌulujim ri winaq rukꞌ ri utyoꞌjal.
24 To him who is able to guard you from falling, and to bring you into his glorious presence, blameless and rejoicing –
Che ri xa jun sibꞌalaj kwinel ri kixchajinik rech man kixqaj taj pa mak xuqujeꞌ rech kixujacho man rukꞌ ta chꞌulujil cho ri ujuluwem, rukꞌ nimalaj kiꞌkotemal.
25 to the one God, our Savior, be ascribed, through Jesus Christ, our Lord, glory, majesty, power, and dominion, as it was before time began, is now, and will be for all time to come. Amen. (aiōn )
Che ri xa jun Dios ri kꞌo retaꞌmabꞌal, ri qakolonel yaꞌtal wiꞌ juluwem, qꞌijilaꞌnem, kwinem, pa Jesucristo, ri Ajawxel rech nabꞌe kanoq, rech kamik xuqujeꞌ rech chibꞌe qꞌij saq. Jeriꞌ. (aiōn )
