< Jude 1 >

1 [I am] Jude. I [serve] Jesus Christ [like] a voluntary slave [MET]. I am a [younger] brother of James, [the leader of all the congregations. I am writing] to you whom [God] has chosen [to belong to him. You are] loved by God [our] Father and protected by Jesus Christ (OR, whom [God] has protected [to present] to Jesus Christ).
Yahuza canga Yeesu Alamasiya, take yi Yakubu, fiye nubo co cowe wiye, Nubo ma cwiye mor kwama Tee cokumcoke na Yeesu Kristi ce.
2 [I pray that] you will continue to [experience] very much [God acting] mercifully toward you, [causing you to have inner] peace, and loving [you].
Cireduwe, kange daka neret kange cwika a bwii fiye kumenen.
3 You whom I love, I (was very eager/very much wanted) to write to you about that which we all (share/have in common), which is how ([God/Jesus Christ]) [has] saved [us]. But now I realize that it is necessary [for me] to write to you in order to exhort you to defend the [truth about Christ] that we believe. [Jesus and his apostles] gave that truth once and for all to us who belong to God, [and we must not let it be changed] {[anyone revise/change it]}.
Nubo ma cwiye mi ma nyi bi kwane na mulang kumen ki ker fuloka beko gwam, tam makumen biweret kambo dor bilenker wo ci ne nubo bwantenco tiye Krisiti win cwar yokka man.
4 Some people falsely [teach that because] God kindly does for us what we do not deserve, it (does not matter/is all right) if we continue to sin. [Those people show by the way that they conduct their lives] that they do not want to admit/accept that Jesus Christ [is] our only Master and Lord. [It was written] long ago {[Someone] long ago wrote} that [God] would condemn (such ungodly people/people like that whose lives are displeasing to him). But some [of those] people have entered [MET] [like crawling snakes] into your congregations [and oppose the truth about Christ, so you must resist/oppose them].
Di kange nubo curab dou ki dang yurangum yurange, wuro ci mulangi dor warke ciye fiya ki kutanka con man ki bilenker, wuro folongum luma kwama kange kayaka, take cin kanangum nii wine, dur kange Teluwebe, Yeesu Almasiya.
5 Although you previously knew all these things, [there are certain things about] which I desire to remind you. [Do not forget that although] the Lord rescued [his people] from Egypt, he later destroyed most of those same people, ones who did not believe [in him].
Mi cwiti nan bulang kumen bwen duwale kweri kom nyomom dikeco, ki yika kwama fulo nubokangem beten masare, di ki bwi con twallangum nubo nebo bilenke.
6 And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
nob. tomange ce wucakke wuro tabo dur bikwan ciyere di cin dubom fiye ciye kwattiye, kwama bwelmaro diri mor kumtacile fir nimde kakuko durko, wo bolange ce. (aïdios g126)
7 Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
Ci nyo na saduma kange Gomarata, kange bertinimbo kentangum kange ciyeu wuro neken dor ciyero kayaka, ci bwangten dilankakoti wo kebo wo daten. di cin yilam diker danke wuro ci nuwa kira manki dika. (aiōnios g166)
8 Similarly, these [ungodly people in your midst] also defile their own bodies [by living immorally], because [they claim/say that God revealed] in visions [that they should act that way]. They refuse to [allow] anyone to have authority over them, and they (revile/speak evil about) [God’s] glorious/wonderful [angels].
Nyo nob dukumenbo wuro ci kan bwiciye ti, ci cwekan liyab boti take ci tok dikeroti dor wo na duktangkakoce.
9 When (the devil/Satan) argued with the chief angel, Michael, about [who would take away] the body of [the prophet] Moses [to bury it], Michael did not [do as these teachers of false doctrine do. Even though Michael has much more authority than they do], he did not disrespectfully (revile/say evil things to) Satan and accuse/condemn him. Instead, he [only] said, “[I desire that] the Lord [God] will rebuke you!”
Di bwen nob tomangebo wucake, dur nob tomangebbo wucake fiya co kwobkanti kange kwalkanka kange bwekelkele dor bilen Musa, letankbo tokka kero kange na warka ko ce dor cer. Nyo co yi ki Di Teluwe a kwenang mwenteng.
10 But the [ones in your midst] who teach false doctrine (revile/speak evil against) the [spiritual] beings that they do not understand. They also [do the evil things that they desire], things that they know about (naturally/without needing to think), things that they just do without considering [the consequences/results], like animals. So they destroy themselves. [But they will also be punished by God] {[God will also] punish them}.
Di nubo wuro boti ki kunka dor ci nyombe gwam. nubo wuro wiki mulen biyuwaret, ci kwob dorcero nen buwar.
11 [God will do] terrible things to those who teach false doctrine! They conduct their lives [wickedly] like Cain, [who murdered his brother because he was] ([jealous/angry because God accepted his brother’s sacrifice and did not accept his]). These false teachers (devote themselves to [MET] [doing] wrong things [like] Balaam, who [tried to induce God’s people to sin in order to get the money that was offered to him]. They will perish like Korah, who rebelled [against the authority that God gave to Moses].
Kwanci wari cin bwangten nure kayinu, take cin yarken mor letanka bal'amu ki na ci fiya mwem cin bwiyam mor funere nawo kora ceu.
12 Those teachers of false doctrine are [as dangerous to you as] [MET] (hidden rocks on a reef/rocks underneath the surface of the ocean) [are to a boat]. When you gather together [to eat the meals that] help you believers to love each other more and have a closer relationship with each other, they [join you and] carouse shamelessly, caring [only] for themselves [and not for others. Because they do not do anything to help others] [MET], they are [as useless as] clouds that are blown along by the wind {that the wind blows along} but that do not [produce/give] any rain. [They are as disappointing as] [MET] trees that do not produce fruit in the autumn [as we expect them to]. They are not only [spiritually] [MET] dead themselves, [but they are] not [able to cause others to be] alive [spiritually, just like] [MET] trees that have been {that [someone] has} uprooted and [as a result] are unable to produce any fruit.
Wuro naba yurangum yurange mor cika kume na cwikace cin nuwa ti ka luma kwenduwe man, tai man. Ka dor cir ci catiye ki kwaci, Ci biloro wo mani bo ki mweme wo yuwako ywa cotiye. cin tini tirangum bitutti man, bilentini kiriti yob, kwomkwobe fiya nintini nin.
13 They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
cin mwelangka mwemek wima wo ki ki bibutetwele, ci kwilangti mor funi kwenduwe ciye. Ciki no nabitirendo certiye wuro ci tank kumtacili fi kiriti kiriti diri diri. (aiōn g165)
14 Enoch, the sixth [person in the line of people who descended] from Adam, prophesied this about those [teachers of false doctrine]: “Listen carefully to this: The Lord will certainly come with a countless number of his holy [angels] in order
Ahnuhu nii na nibere ce teu Adamu nin ma dukume ddor ciyer ki, To Teluwe an boki nob cebo wucakke bikatentini.
15 to judge everyone, and to punish all wicked and (ungodly people/people whose lives are displeasing to God) for all the (ungodly things/things that displease God) that they did in (an ungodly way/a way that displeases God), and for all the harsh things that ungodly sinful people have spoken against him.”
Co warum ki warka dor nubo gwam, ya mwa nubo mani nuware mor nangen ciyer na bongtu wo ci mani nure wo datenbe kange keti wo cilongi wo nob bwirangke tokangi dor cere.
16 Those [teachers] of [false doctrine] grumble [about] the [things that God does]. They complain [about what happens to them]. They do the sinful things that their [bodies] desire. They talk boastfully. They (flatter/say nice things to) people, only in order to get [those people to give them the] things that they want.
Burombo ci yiti toki kom toke, nob fwennab, wuro bwangten dilanka ciyekoti na cile ce, burombo ma nyalti ki kwilanka, nob wambirub na fiya ka ciyeko.
17 But you people whom I love need to remember the things that were predicted by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ {that the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said would happen}.
Di la kom nubo ma cwiye kom bulangi, kange ketito wo nob tomange Yeesu Almasiya be ci yi kom nanduwo.
18 They told you, “In the final period of time [in which we are now living] there will be people who will laugh at [the truths that God has revealed]. They will do the (ungodly things/things that are displeasing to God) that their [bodies] desire.”
Cin yi kom ki, “Mor kume ni cwile, an fiya nob mwankerebo wuro bwanten dilangka ciyekoti na bwini wabe.
19 [That describes] the teachers of false doctrine [well, because] they are the ones who cause divisions among believers. They do what their own minds tell them to do. The Spirit [of God] does not live within them.
Nubo wuro nob boti ki yalkangka, takeu, ci bibei dorbitiner, ci man ki yuwa tangbeko wucakke.
20 But you people whom I love, (hold/continue to trust) firmly to the very sacred truths that you believe. Pray by [letting] the Holy Spirit enable/empower you.
Di la kom nubo ma cwiye, kom mu dor kumero nen bilenker la gwamme kom na bwayilence, take kom kwob diloti mor yuwa tangbeko wucakke.
21 Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
Kom tam dor kumero mor cwika kwama, tak kom nintang cireduwe teluwe yeesu Almasiya wo boti ki dume diriye. (aiōnios g166)
22 Mercifully [help] those who are not certain [what teaching they should believe].
Kom nung cireduwe fiye nubo wo nyomantiye nin. Kom fulo kangembo kira ki cwabrika.
23 [Rescue] others from [the influence of those who teach what is false] [MET], [as you would rescue things by] snatching [them from] a fire. Pity those [whom the teachers of false doctrine have completely convinced], but beware that [you yourselves are not influenced by them] {that they do not influence you}. Detest [doing or even thinking about the sins that those people commit, just like you would detest] [MET] touching not only filthy things but the clothes that were stained by those things {that those things stained}.
Nubo kange kom nung cinen cireduwe ki yila bwik, kom nung yai ka bwen kulendo bwiciyeri.
24 God is able to keep you from ceasing to trust in him (OR, from sinning), and he is able to bring you into his glorious presence. [As you stand before him], there will be nothing [for which] you [will] be condemned {[he can] condemn you}, and you will be rejoicing greatly.
Nawo fiye woki bikwan na ywamkom kottangka, co dok kom ti kom ti kambu duktanka bokaceko man ki duti kange bilanktumbo tenan tenange.
25 He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Fiye kwama wine nii fulokabe fiye Yeesu Almasiya Teluwe, duktangka, dur kange liyar kange bikwan a no nimde fiyang gwam, nawo kange diri, A ti nyo. (aiōn g165)
