< Jude 1 >
1 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, [and] called:
Ko au Siute, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, mo e tokoua ʻo Semisi, kiate kinautolu kuo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ko e Tamai, pea kuo fakamoʻui ʻe Sisu Kalaisi, ko e uiuiʻi:
2 Mercy to you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
Ke tupulekina pe kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pe, mo e melino, mo e ʻofa.
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write to you concerning the common salvation, it was needful for me to write to you, and exhort [you] that ye should earnestly contend for the faith, which was once delivered to the saints.
ʻE kāinga ʻofeina, ʻi heʻeku fai fakatoʻotoʻo ʻaupito ke tohi atu kiate kimoutolu ki he fakamoʻui lahi, naʻe totonu ke u tohi kiate kimoutolu, mo enginaki ke mou fekuki fakamātoato koeʻuhi ko e tui naʻe ʻatu ʻi muʻa ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni.
4 For certain men have crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
He ʻoku ai ʻae kau tangata kuo nau fetolofi fakapōloto, ʻakinautolu naʻe tohi ʻi muʻa ki he malaʻia ni, ko e kau tangata taʻelotu, ʻonau liliu ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻOtua ko e faianga angahala, ʻo fakafisinga ʻi he ʻEiki pe taha ko e ʻOtua ko hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
Ko ia ʻoku ou loto ke fakamanatuʻi ʻakimoutolu, ka naʻa mou ʻilo muʻa ʻae meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ʻi he hili hono fakamoʻui ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae kakai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea ne toki fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai ke tui.
6 And the angels who kept not their first state, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness to the judgment of the great day. (aïdios )
Pea ko e kau ʻāngelo naʻe ʻikai ke tuʻumaʻu ʻi honau muʻaki ʻalunga, ka naʻa nau tukuange honau nofoʻanga, kuo ne tuku ke moʻua ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi haʻi taʻengata ʻoe fakapoʻuli ʻo aʻu ki he fakamaau ʻoe ʻaho lahi. (aïdios )
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to impurity, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. (aiōnios )
ʻO hangē foki ko Sotoma mo Komola, mo e ngaahi kolo naʻa nau vāofi mo fai tatau, ʻonau tuku ʻakinautolu ki he feʻauaki, mo e muimui ki he feholikoviʻaki, kuo fokotuʻu ko e fakaʻilonga, ʻonau moʻua ʻi he totongi ʻoe afi taʻengata. (aiōnios )
8 Likewise also these [filthy] dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
ʻOku pehē foki ʻakinautolu ni, ʻae kau misi [kovi], ʻoku nau ʻuliʻi ʻae sino, ʻo manukiʻi ʻae pule, mo lauʻikovi ʻae kau pule.
9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
Ka ʻi he alea ʻa Maikeli ko e ʻāngelo lahi mo e tēvolo, naʻe fakakikihi ia ki he sino ʻo Mōsese, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne tali ʻaki ia ha lea manuki, ka naʻa ne pehē, “Ke lōmia koe ʻe he ʻEiki.”
10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
Ka ʻoku lea kovi ʻakinautolu ni ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻiloʻi: ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku nau ʻilo fakakakano pe fakataha mo e fanga manu taʻeloto, ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku nau ʻuliʻi ai ʻakinautolu.
11 Woe to them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and run greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
ʻE malaʻia ʻakinautolu! He kuo nau ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Keini, ʻo tāfea atu ki he hē ʻa Pelami koeʻuhi ko e totongi, pea nau ʻauha ʻi he angatuʻu ʻa Kola.
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds [they are] without water, carried about by winds; withered autumnal trees, without fruit, twice dead, plucked out by the roots;
Ko e ngaahi ʻila ʻakinautolu ni ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi kātoanga ʻofa, ʻi heʻenau keinangaʻanga mo kimoutolu, ʻonau kai fekinaki mo taʻemanavahē: ko e ngaahi ʻao taʻeaihavai, ʻoku vilingia fano ʻe he ngaahi matangi; ko e ngaahi ʻakau fua mate, taʻefua, ʻo mate ʻangaua, kuo taʻaki fuʻu hake;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. (aiōn )
Ko e ngaahi peau lili ʻoe tahi, ʻoku nau koā atu ʻenau fakamā; ko e ngaahi fetuʻu he fano pe, pea kuo tuku moʻonautolu ʻae ʻuliʻuli ʻoe fakapoʻuli taʻengata. (aiōn )
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
Pea naʻe kikite kiate kinautolu ni foki ʻe ʻInoke, ko hono toko fitu meia ʻAtaina, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku hāʻele mai ʻae ʻEiki mo e ngaahi toko mano ʻo ʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni.
15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convict all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have impiously committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Ke fai ʻae fakamaau ki he kakai kotoa pē, mo fakamoʻoni ki he kakai taʻelotu kotoa pē ʻa ʻenau ngaahi ngāue fakataʻelotu kotoa pē ʻaia kuo nau fai ʻi he anga fakataʻelotu, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa fakamamahi kotoa pē ʻaia kuo lea ʻaki ʻe he kau angahala taʻelotu kiate ia.”
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling [words], having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
Ko e kau lāunga mo hanu ʻakinautolu ni, ʻoku nau angimui ki he ngaahi holi kovi ʻanautolu; pea ʻoku lea fakapuhopuha ʻa honau ngutu, ʻonau filifilimānako ki he kakai koeʻuhi ko e koloa.
17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Kae manatuʻi ʻekimoutolu, ko e ʻofeina, ki he ngaahi lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻi muʻa ʻe he kau ʻaposetolo ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi;
18 That they told you there would be mockers in the last time, who would walk after their own ungodly lusts.
He naʻa nau fakahā kiate kimoutolu, “ʻE ai ʻae kau manuki ʻi he kuonga ki mui, pea te nau angimui ki he ngaahi holi fakataʻelotu ʻanautolu.”
19 These are they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
Ko kinautolu ni ʻoku nau mavaheʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻoku fakakakano, ʻo taʻemaʻu ʻae Laumālie
20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying by the Holy Spirit,
Ka ko kimoutolu, ko e ʻofeina, ke langa ʻaki hake ʻakimoutolu ki hoʻomou tui fungani māʻoniʻoni, pea lotu ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni,
21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. (aiōnios )
ʻO tauhiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, mo ʻamanaki ki he ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pē ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ki he moʻui taʻengata. (aiōnios )
22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
Pea ke manavaʻofa ki he niʻihi, ʻo fai kehekehe.
23 And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Pea ko e niʻihi, ke fakamoʻui ʻaki ʻae fakamanavahē, ʻo hamusi mei he afi; ka mou fehiʻa pe ki he kofu kuo ʻuliʻi ʻe he kakano.
24 Now to him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
Pea ko eni, ke ʻiate ia ʻoku faʻa fai ke taʻofi ʻakimoutolu ke ʻoua naʻa mou hinga, pea ke ʻatu ʻakimoutolu taʻehalaia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono nāunau mo e fiefia lahi ʻaupito,
25 To God the only wise, our Savior, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
Ke ʻi he ʻOtua poto taha pe ko hotau Fakamoʻui, ʻae nāunau, mo e ongoongolelei mo e pule, mo e mālohi, ʻi heni mo taʻengata. ʻEmeni. (aiōn )
