< 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).
Mi Yahuza urere Uyesu, uhenu Uyakubu uhana an desa a titti we anu insa tize ta Asere amu riba, an desa Yesu ma zauka we.
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].
Ugoggoni, unata iriba, nan uhem vat ti cukuno anyimo ashi.
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]}.
Shi nihenu, mazi gusi inda nyertike shi ni ba, a banga ubura uru ugino me, haru vat nan shi, ine ini ma ira ya wuna uri in nyertike shi in nya shi tize, nyani ace ahira u inso iriba igono me sa anya ana lau ka'inde cas sarki ukinki.
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].
Aye anyimo ashi me wa ribe nihunzi andesa datti unu tubanaceki we anu zatu utarsa Asere, anu kurzuzo utize ta Asere imumu ini basa, wa gasiwe vana u'inde wa Asere.
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].
Ana me in nyara ni ringi shi, isa rusa vat mum, Asere a burin duru anyimo Umasar, vat in ani me ma huu an desa wa game uhem in me.
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 , questioned)
Ibe ikadura daa wa benki ace awe ba, wa ceki ahira aticukum tu we me, ma ceki we anyimo inyang nan mare ma bibit uhan a uwui sa madi kode avi imum me sa ma bira. (aïdios )
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 , questioned)
Ane ani usaduma nan Ugwamrata, nan ti pin sa ti raa mamu nan we, an desa wareki acen aweme utarsa ahana e nan katuma kani pum, a bezi we barki ukasu wa anu wa iri nirere sa wa zinu sa me anyimo ura. (aiōnios )
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].
Ane ani ana tiroo, wa mu cara apumnawe me nin, wa gaa we utarsa uti gomo wazini boo tize ti buri a hira ana je.
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!”
Uganiya sa bibe bikadura Mika'ilu ma zin unu zito in bibe bi buri, wazin matara ahira ikizi i Musa, me Muka, ilu daki ma wu debe u nya na ma buki tize ti bit ba, me dai ma gu Asere aceki we ani me.
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}.
Anu agino me daki wa hem vat ini mum be sa da wa tinka ba, barki imum be sa wa rusa anyimo ani pum wazi gusi izenki unu dira uni ce, una iwono iwe ya zigino me.
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].
Wadi ziti wa tarsa iriba i Kayinu, wa tarsa una u hunne me barki imumu iriba iwe wa kuri wa ribe iwono barki wazi gbas kasi kora.
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.
Ana gino me wazi gusi tinaa ti rizizo tini anyimo ani ori nishi me nan nu uhem wazi gusi matiti mu zatu uyozo in ma'ino, wa wijo vat gusi ti kbeki sa aruba.
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 , questioned)
Wazi gusi maronkomi mamu 'i. Wazi gusi iwiran ya sesere wa haba wa haba ane ani a inki we har iwono. (aiōn )
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
Anu cangi desa mamani unu Usunare adumo Adamu me ma ma reki tizze ahira anu agi Asere a'aye ina nu utarsa umeme gbardang.
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.”
Barki ma bezi iriba imeme ahira kode vi ma kuri bezi anu zatu utarsa Asere sa wa wuzi imum be sa iriba iwe ya hem nan tizze ti buri sa buu ti zatu tame Asere.
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.
Anaa gino me we wani ana tize ti muriba, anu hunzizebace, anu tarsa ma ree wa nonzo ana je barki wa kem ire imum ahira aweme.
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}.
Shi, nihenu ringi ni tizze sa anu Yesu Asere aru wa busi shi.
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.”
Wa gun shi, umara une adi kem aye anyimo ashi me sa wadi, zunzi shi anu tarsa une da Asere ba.
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.
Aye wadi cukuno anu harsa anu henu, anu tarsa muriba muwe, wa zo me in bibe biriri ba.
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.
Shi nihenu, inta nin u'inko iriba ishi me gangan imumu ihuma, i wuzi birigira anyimo bibe biriri.
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 )
onno unu hem me sa Asere ahem in haru i insi aje in ni mum be sa ogomo Asere madi wuzin duru uhana uwui uge be sa madi e. (aiōnios )
22 Mercifully [help] those who are not certain [what teaching they should believe].
Kunna ni ugogoni wan desa da wa nya iriba ba.
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}.
Izinu bursa aye, usuzo aye anyimo ura, aye i kunna ugogoni uwe, in biyaubi hira uzenzen utirunga tiwe me nan iribaniwe me ya nyimo nipum.
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.
Ana me an desa ma bari ma buri we, kati wa piliko, ma kuri ma witi shi anu zatu umadini ini riba irum.
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 )
Ahira Asere cas unu bura uru, usuro uvana umeme Yesu, ninonzo, ubari, tigomo ti cukuno ahira me datti utuba nan ana me nan uhana aje, ca i cukuno anime. (aiōn )
