Jude 1
1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are called and sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
Lokwalo lo lo tswang kwa go: Juda motlhanka wa ga Jesu Keresete mogoloa Jakobe. Go: Bakeresete gongwe le gongwe, barategi ba ba tlhophilweng ke One.
2 Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
A kutlwelo botlhoko ya Modimo, lorato le kagiso di lo oketsegele.
3 Beloved, although I was quite eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.
Ditsala tse di rategang, ke ne ke ikaeletse go lo kwalela ka megopolo mengwe mabapi le poloko e Modimo o e re neileng, mme jaanong ke bona gore mo boemong jwa moo ke tshwanetse go lo kwalela ka sengwe se sele, ke lopa gore lo femele ka tlhoafalo boammaaruri jo Modimo o bo neileng batho ba One gangwe fela mo dingwageng tsotlhe ba sa fetoge.
4 For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have crept in unnoticed. They are ungodly men who pervert the grace of our God, turning it into a license for sensuality. By doing so, they deny God, who is our only Master, and also the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mme ke bua ka ntlha ya gore Baruti bangwe ba ba senang bo-Modimo ba setse ba itshukunyeditse mo gare ga lona, ba re, fa re sena go nna Bakeresete re ka itirela go rata re sa boife kwatlhao ya Modimo. Tshenyego ya batho ba ba ntseng jalo e kwadilwe bogologolo gonne ba furaletse Mmusi yo e leng ene fela ka nosi Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete.
5 Now I want to remind you, although you already know this, that after the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he subsequently destroyed those who did not believe.
Mme karabo ya me mo go bone ke e: gakologelwang boammaaruri jo, jo lo setseng lo bo itse, gore Jehofa o bolokile chaba yotlhe go tswa mo lefatsheng la Egepeto, mme a nyeletsa botlhe ba ba neng ba sa mo ikanye le go mo reetsa.
6 And the angels who did not keep within their proper domain, but left their own dwelling, he has kept under darkness in everlasting chains for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
Mme ke lo gakolola ka Baengele ba ba kileng ba bo ba le boitshepo, mme ba boela mo sebeng. Jaanong Modimo o ba golegetse mo kgolegelong ya lefifi ba letetse letsatsi la katlholo. (aïdios g126)
7 Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in fornication and went after strange flesh in a manner similar to those angels, serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
Gakologelwang ka metse ya Sodoma le Gomora le metse e e neng e bapile nayo, yotlhe e ne e tletse mefutafuta ya dibe, le banna ba ba leswe ba ba eletsang banna ba bangwe. Metse eo e ne ya nyelediwa ka molelo go nna tlhagiso mo go rona gore re itse gore go na le dihele kwa baleofi ba yang go otlhaiwang teng. (aiōnios g166)
8 In the same way these ungodly men, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and revile glorious beings.
Mme le fa go ntse jalo, baruti ba, ba tsietso, ba ntse ba tsweletse go tshela botshelo jwa bone jo bo leswe jwa boleo, ba tlontlolola mebele ya bone ebile ba nyatsa le e leng bone babusi ba bone, gape ba kgala le bagalaledi.
9 But when Michael the archangel was contending with the devil and disputing about the body of Moses, he did not dare to bring a reviling judgment against him, but said, “May the Lord rebuke yoʋ!”
Le ene Mikaele, mongwe wa Baengele ba bagolo thata ka nako ya fa ba tatalalana le Satane ka setopo sa ga Moshe, gaa a ka a leka go pega Satane molato; le fa e le go mo gobolola, fela a mo raya a re, “A Morena a go kgalemele.”
10 Yet these men slander whatever they do not understand, and they are corrupted by what they, like irrational beasts, instinctively comprehend.
Mme batho ba, ba kgala ba bile ba sotla sengwe le sengwe se ba sa se tlhaloganyeng, ba tshwana le diphologolo, ba dira sengwe le sengwe se ba se ratang, jalo he, ba senye mewa ya bone.
11 Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, they rushed for reward to the error of Balaam, and they perished in the rebellion of Korah.
A bo go latlhega bone, gonne ba latela sekao sa ga Kaene yo o neng a bolaya monnawe, fela jaaka Balaame, ba tlaa dira le fa e le eng ka ntlha ya go rata madi, le jaaka Kora, ga ba a ka ba reetsa Modimo, mme ba tlaa swela mo phutsong ya One.
12 These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, feeding themselves as they feast among you without fear. They are clouds without water, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, pulled up by the roots.
Mme fa banna ba ba ikopanya le lona mo meketeng ya lorato ya phuthego ke dilabe tse di maswe mo gare ga lona, ba a tshega ba tsweletse pele, ba bohula ba ikatela dijo ba sa akanyetse ba bangwe ba tshwana le maru a a kgokgoediwang ke phefo mo lefatsheng je le omeletseng a sena pula, ba solofetsa go le gontsi mme go se na sepe. Ba tshwana le ditlhare tsa maungo tse di senang sepe ka nako ya thobo, ga ba a swa fela, ba sule mo go menaganyeng, gonne ba epolotswe gotlhe ka medi go fisiwa.
13 They are wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shameful deeds; wayward stars, for whom the thick gloom of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
Mo go salang sefularong sa bone ke matlhabisa ditlhong le maswabi jaaka mahulo a a leswe a a tlogetsweng ke diphefo tsa makhubu a metsi a molapo mo lotshitshing, ba kaila gongwe le gongwe ba lebega ba phatsima jaaka dinaledi. Mme kwa pele ga bonwa go na le lefifi le le ntsho la bosakhutleng le ba le baakanyeditsweng ke Modimo. (aiōn g165)
14 Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied about these men, saying, “Behold, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones
Enoke wa bogologolo yo o neng a tshela morago ga ga Adamo, o ne a itse kaga batho ba, a bo a bua ka bone a re: “Bonang, Morena o e tla le didikadike tsa baitshepi ba gagwe.
15 to execute judgment against all and to convict all the ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds that they have done in an ungodly way, and to convict ungodly sinners of all the harsh words they have spoken against him.”
O tlaa lere batho botlhe ba lefatshe fa pele ga gagwe mo katlholong, go amogela kwatlhao e e ba tshwanetseng, gore e nne bosupi jwa ditiro tse di boitshegang tse ba di dirileng ka go tsuolola Modimo, o tlaa senola gotlhe mo ba go buileng kaga gagwe.”
16 These men are grumblers and complainers, walking according to their own lusts. They speak bombastic words with their mouths, admiring people for their own advantage.
Batho ba ke bangongoregi ba metlha yotlhe, ga ba ke ba thethebala dipelo, ba dira bosula bongwe le bongwe jo ba bo eletsang, ba boikgantsho ba goletse ganong ke “baipegi” ba rata go itshupa. Mme fa ba tlotla ba bangwe, ba direla fela gore le bone ba tle ba ba thuse.
17 But you, beloved, must remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold,
Ditsala tse di rategang, gakologelwang se baaposetoloi ba Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete ba se lo boleletseng,
18 how they said to you, “In the end times there will be scoffers who walk according to their own ungodly lusts.”
gore mo metlheng ya bofelo go tlaa tla basotli ba, ba maikaelelo a bone a botshelo e leng go itumela ka bosula bongwe le bongwe jo ba bo akanyang.
19 These people cause divisions; they are worldly and do not have the Spirit.
Mme ba tsosa dikganetsanyo; ba rata dilo tse di bosula tsa lefatshe, ga ba na Mowa O O Boitshepo mo go bone.
20 But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
Mme lona, ditsala tse di rategang, lo tshwanetse go aga matshelo a lona ka tlhomamo gape a nitame mo mothaong wa tumelo ya rona e e boitshepo, lo ithuta go rapela ka nonofo le ka tlhotlheletso ya Mowa O O Boitshepo.
21 must keep yourselves in the love of God as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Lo nne mo kagelelong ya lorato lwa Modimo gore o kgone go lo segofatsa. Lo letele ka pelotelele botshelo jo bosakhutleng jo Morena wa rona Jesu Keresete o tlaa lo bo nayang ka kutlwelo botlhoko ya gagwe. (aiōnios g166)
22 Have mercy on some, using discernment;
Mme lekang go thusa ba ba ganetsanyang le lona. Lo nne kutlwelo botlhoko mo go ba ba belaelang.
23 and others save with fear by snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment that is stained by the flesh.
Bolokang bangwe jaaka ekete lo ba swatola mo molelong wa dihele. Mme ba bangwe bone, ba thuseng gore ba itse Morena mme lo ntse lo itlhokometse e se re kgotsa ba lo gogela mo dibeng tsa bone. Lo ile makgapha otlhe a maikepo a bone lo ntse lo le kutlwelo botlhoko nabo jaaka baleofi.
24 Now to him who is able to keep them from falling and to make them stand unblemished in the presence of his glory with great joy,
Mme jaanong, a kgalalelo yotlhe e nne go One Modimo o o nosi, o o re bolokang ka Jesu Keresete Morena wa rona; Ee, borena le puso, le thata yotlhe le taolo ke tsa gagwe go tswa tshimologong: Gotlhe ke ga gagwe, gape e tlaa nna ga gagwe ka metlha le ka metlha. Mme gape o nonofile go lo tshegetsa gore lo se ka lwa relela lwa wa, le go lo tlisa lo sena selabe sa boleo, lo itekanetse mo kgalalelong ya gagwe, ka meduduetso e megolo ya boitumelo jo bo sa feleng. Ke nna, Juda. (aiōn g165)
