< Jude 1 >
1 Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James: To those who are in God the Father, enfolded in His love, and kept for Jesus Christ, and called.
Yahuda, bawan Yesu Kiristi, ɗan’uwan Yaƙub, Zuwa ga waɗanda aka kira, waɗanda Allah Uba yake ƙauna, waɗanda kuma Yesu Kiristi ya kiyaye.
2 May mercy, peace and love be abundantly granted to you.
Jinƙai, salama da kuma ƙauna, su kasance tare da ku a yalwace.
3 Dear friends, since I am eager to begin a letter to you on the subject of our common salvation, I find myself constrained to write and cheer you on to the vigorous defense of the faith delivered once for all to God's people.
Abokaina ƙaunatattu, ko da yake na yi marmari ƙwarai in rubuta muku game da ceton nan namu, sai na ga ya dace in rubuta, in gargaɗe ku ku tsaya da ƙarfi cikin bangaskiya wadda aka danƙa wa mutane masu tsarki na Allah sau ɗaya tak.
4 For certain persons have crept in unnoticed--men spoken of in ancient writings as pre-destined to this condemnation--ungodly men, who pervert the grace of our God into an excuse for immorality, and disown Jesus Christ, our only Sovereign and Lord.
Na faɗa haka ne domin waɗansu mutanen da aka rubuta hukuncinsu tun dā sun shiga cikinku a ɓoye. Su fa marasa tsoron Allah ne. Su ne waɗanda suka mai da alherin Allahnmu ya zama dalilin yin fasikanci, suna kuma mūsun Yesu Kiristi wanda shi ne Makaɗaici Mai Iko Duka da kuma Ubangijinmu.
5 I desire to remind you--although the whole matter is already familiar to you--that the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, but afterwards destroyed those who had no faith.
Ko da yake kun riga kun san duk wannan, ina so in tuna muku cewa Ubangiji ya ceci mutanensa daga Masar, duk da haka daga baya ya hallaka waɗanda ba su ba da gaskiya ba.
6 And angels--those who did not keep the position originally assigned to them, but deserted their own proper abode--He reserves in everlasting bonds, in darkness, in preparation for the judgement of the great day. (aïdios )
Haka ma mala’ikun da ba su riƙe matsayinsu na iko ba, waɗanda suka bar ainihin mazauninsu, su ne ya tsare a duhu daure da dawwammamun sarƙoƙi don hukunci ta babbar Ranan nan. (aïdios )
7 So also Sodom and Gomorrah--and the neighboring towns in the same manner--having been guilty of gross fornication and having gone astray in pursuit of unnatural vice, are now before us as a specimen of the fire of the Ages in the punishment which they are undergoing. (aiōnios )
Haka ma Sodom da Gomorra da garuruwan da suke kewaye da su, waɗanda su ma suka ba da kansu ga fasikanci da muguwar sha’awar jiki, sun zama misalin waɗanda suke shan hukuncin madawwamiyar wuta. (aiōnios )
8 Yet in just the same way these dreamers also pollute the body, while they set authority at naught and speak evil of dignities.
Haka yake da masu mafarke-mafarken nan, gama sun ƙazantar da jikunansu, suka ƙi bin masu mulki, suna ɓata sunan talikan sararin sama.
9 But Michael the Archangel, when contending with the Devil and arguing with him about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce judgement on him in abusive terms, but simply said, "The Lord rebuke you."
Kai, ko Mika’ilu babban shugaban mala’iku ma, sa’ad da yake mūsu da Iblis game da gawar Musa, bai yi garajen ɗora masa laifi da baƙar magana ba, sai dai ya ce, “Ubangiji yă tsawata maka!”
10 Yet these men are abusive in matters of which they know nothing, and in things which, like the brutes, they understand instinctively--in all these they corrupt themselves.
Duk da haka mutanen nan suna maganar banza a kan kome da ba su gane ba; kuma abubuwan da suka fahimta bisa ga jiki, kamar dabbobi marasa hankali, waɗannan abubuwa ne suke hallaka su.
11 Alas for them; for they have followed in the steps of Cain; for the sake of gain they have rushed on headlong in the evil ways of Balaam; and have perished in rebellion like that of Korah!
Kaitonsu! Gama sun kama hanyar Kayinu; sun ruga a guje garin neman riba cikin kuskure kamar Bala’am; aka kuma hallaka su cikin tawayen Kora.
12 These men--sunken rocks! --are those who share the pleasure of your love-feasts, unrestrained by fear while caring only for themselves; clouds without water, driven away by the winds; trees that cast their fruit, barren, doubly dead, uprooted;
Waɗannan mutane sun zama kamar ƙazanta a taronku na soyayya, suna ta ciye-ciye a cikinku, ba kunya ba tsoro. Su masu kiwo ne da suke ciyar da kansu kawai. Su kamar hadari ne da babu ruwa da iska take kori. Su kamar itatuwa ne, marasa’ya’ya da rani, waɗanda aka tumɓuke, ko kamar itatuwan da aka tumɓuke suka kuma mutu ƙurmus.
13 wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom is reserved dense darkness of age-long duration. (aiōn )
Su kamar raƙuman ruwan teku ne masu hauka, suna taƙama da tumbatsan kumfar kunyarsu. Su kamar taurari ne masu yawo barkatai, waɗanda aka ajiye mugun duhu saboda su har abada. (aiōn )
14 It was also about these that Enoch, who belonged to the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, saying, "The Lord has come, attended by myriads of His people, to execute judgement upon all,
Enok ma, wanda yake na bakwai daga Adamu, ya yi annabci game da waɗannan mutane cewa, “Duba, Ubangiji yana zuwa da dubu dubban tsarkakansa
15 and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly deeds which in their ungodliness they have committed, and of all the hard words which they, ungodly sinners as they are, have spoken against Him."
don yă yi wa kowa shari’a, yă kuma hukunta duk marasa tsoron Allah game da dukan ayyukansu na rashin tsoron Allah da suka aikata ta hanyar rashin tsoron Allah, da kuma dukan baƙaƙen kalmomin da masu zunubi marasa tsoron Allah suka faɗa game da shi.”
16 These men are murmurers, ever bemoaning their lot. Their lives are guided by their evil passions, and their mouths are full of big, boastful words, while they treat individual men with admiring reverence for the sake of the advantage they can gain.
Waɗannan mutane dai, gunaguni gare su, kullum ganin laifin waɗansu suke yi. Muguwar sha’awa ce kaɗai tunaninsu. Sun cika da banzar magana ta yabon kansu. Suna ruɗin mutane da zaƙin baki don samun ribar kansu.
17 But as for you, my dearly-loved friends, remember the words that before now were spoken by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ--
Amma ku abokaina ƙaunatattu, ku tuna da abin da manzannin Ubangijinmu Yesu Kiristi suka faɗa a dā.
18 how they declared to you, "In the last times there shall be scoffers, obeying only their own ungodly passions."
Sun ce muku, “A kwanakin ƙarshe za a kasance da masu ba’a waɗanda za su bi sha’awace-sha’awacensu na rashin tsoron Allah.”
19 These are those who cause divisions. They are men of the world, wholly unspiritual.
Waɗannan mutanen ne, suke kawo rabe-rabe, masu bin abin da jiki yake so, marasa Ruhu.
20 But you, my dearly-loved friends, building yourselves up on the basis of your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
Amma ku, abokaina ƙaunatattu, ku gina kanku cikin bangaskiyarku mafi tsarki, ku kuma yi addu’a cikin Ruhu Mai Tsarki.
21 must keep yourselves safe in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ which will result in the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios )
Ku zauna cikin ƙaunar Allah yayinda kuke jira jinƙan Ubangijinmu Yesu Kiristi don yă kawo ku ga rai madawwami. (aiōnios )
22 Some, when they argue with you, you must endeavor to convince;
Ku ji tausayin waɗanda suke shakka;
23 others you must try to save, as brands plucked from the flames; and on others look with pity mingled with fear, while you hate every trace of their sin.
ku cece waɗansu ta wurin fizge su daga wuta. Ga waɗansu kuma ku ji tausayinsu, amma tare da tsoro, har ma ku yi ƙyamar tufafin da suka ɓata da ayyukansu na jiki.
24 But to Him who is able to keep you safe from stumbling, and cause you to stand in the presence of His glory free from blemish and full of exultant joy--
To, yabo yă tabbata a gare shi, shi wanda yake da iko yă tsare ku daga fāɗuwa, yă kuma miƙa ku marasa laifi a gaban ɗaukakarsa da matuƙar farin ciki.
25 to the only God our Saviour--through Jesus Christ our Lord, be ascribed glory, majesty, might, and authority, as it was before all time, is now, and shall be to all the Ages! Amen. (aiōn )
Gare shi kuma, shi da yake kaɗai Allah Mai Cetonmu, ta wurin Yesu Kiristi Ubangijinmu, bari ɗaukaka, daraja, iko da mulki, su tabbata a gare shi, tun farkon zamanai, yanzu, da har abada abadin! Amin. (aiōn )
