Ayhude 1
1 Yesus kiristoosas othiza Yaqobe isha Yudape, Intes xeyigetidaytas Xoossi Aaway siiqizaytas Yesus kiristoosay naagidaytas wurisotas;
[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).
2 Maarotethi sarotethine siiqoy intes daro.
[I pray that] you will continue to [experience] very much [God acting] mercifully toward you, [causing you to have inner] peace, and loving [you].
3 Ta siiqoto nu issife attida atotetha gishshi ta intes xaafanas daro koyadisishin ha7i qasse nam77anthontta issito Xoossi asas immida ammano gishshi inte daro baaxxistana mala ta intena zorays. Ta intes xaafanas taas tooho gidides.
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]}.
4 Istta bolla piridistanayssi daro wodepe kase istta gish xafetida asati inteko kolixxi gelida. Heytantti xoossu eronttayta, nu Goda kiyatetha coo mela laammizaytane Xoossa goynotaytako. Izi berika nuna haarizayssane nuusi Goda gidida Yesus kiristoosaka kadettes.
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].
5 Inte hessa wurisoka kaseti erikoka Goday ba dereza Gibixefe kessidi ashidayssane hankko ammanonttayta guyepe dhayssidayssa ta intena akekissana koyayss.
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].
6 Hessaththoka ba boncho naagonta ixxidi ba dizaso yeddida kiitanchata inte yuushi qopana mala Xoossi istta gita pirida gallas gakanas medhina qashos giridi gida dhuman naagi wothides. (aïdios g126)
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)
7 Hessaththoka Sodomene Gamooray qasseka istta heeran diza katamatika laymatidanne salo medhetethatara laymatanas amottida. Hesa gishshi istti medhina taman xuugistanaytas lemiso gidida. f/ Haysi qofazi eketiday Medhetistaha maxafa 19.5-11 gidishin Sodeme asay Loxxekko, yida immathatara laymatana koydayssa beses. (aiōnios g166)
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)
8 Hessaththoka heyti he asati berika ba agumo kaallidi berika ba asho tunathetes. Beepe bollara dizaytas azazetetena. Istti salon bonchora dizaytaka cayettes.
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].
9 Haray attoshin salo kiitanchata halaqay Mikka7eley Muse asho gishshi izara palamettishe “Nena Goday hanqeto!” gides attin izas casha qaala zaaribeyna.
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!”
10 Hayti asati qasse isttas eretontta ixxida mishsha wursi cashe cayetes. Aykoka erontta mehista mala coo ba qopi ekkida miishi isttas diiko istti hessan dhayana.
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}.
11 Istti Qayele ogen bida gishshi miishas giidi Bala7ame mala balan kunidida. Qasse Qoorey eqettida mala isttika eqettidi dhayida gish istas aye.
[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].
12 Hayti ha asati yeellay bayinda laymma hanora issi bolla inte digiseson bettiza wode intes dhuphe gidetes. Istti bessi xalala qopeetes. Istti carikon biza iray baynda shaara malako. Ayfey ayifiza woden ayfey baynda xaphope dhoqalletidi nam77uto melida miththa malako.
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.
13 Istti yeelachiza ba oothoza wolqama abba dambala gopontto mala copu hisitizaytako. Gird gida dhumay istta merinas naagizayssane coo mela waayetiza xoolinteta malako. (aiōn g165)
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)
14 Adamepe ha simmin lapuntho yeletethi gidida Henokey hizgides “Heko Xoossi qooday baynda geesha kiitanchatara asa wuriso bolla piridanas yaana.
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
15 Heyta Xoossas goynontta asati oothida iitti ootho geedon istta izi qaxxayana. Addafeka Xooss heyta bees goynontta nagaranchata bolla istti hasa7ida iitta miishata gishshi izi istta bolla piridana.”
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.”
16 Heyti he asati wuriso wode zuzumettizaytane ay miishanka ufa7etti eronttaytako. Istti ba iitta amo kaallizaytako. Istta duunan otoretetha qaalay kumides. Bessi ba go7a koyishe ase aadasheetes.
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.
17 Inte ta siiqoto nu Goda Yesus kiristoosay kiitti yeddidayti hayssafe kase yootida qaala akekite.
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}.
18 Istti “Wode wurisethan Xoossa shenepe haakidayti berika ba iitta amo kaallishe ase qidhizayti yaana” giidi intes kase yooti wothida.
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.”
19 Heyti asa issa issafe shaakizayta; asho amotethi kaalizaytane isttan xiillo ayanay bayindaytakko.
[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.
20 Ta ishato, inte qasse wurisofe bollara inte geesha ammanon minni eqqite. Xiillo ayananka minni woossite.
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.
21 Nu Goda Yesus kiristoosay ba maarotethan intena medhina deyon gathanayssa naagetishe intenateha Xoossa siiqon naagite. (aiōnios g166)
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)
22 Sidhishe diza asatas mishetite;
Mercifully [help] those who are not certain [what teaching they should believe].
23 Issi issi asata tamape kesi ashite haratas yashatethan michettite shin nagaran tunida istta asatetha bochchida mayoka wuris ixxite.
[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}.
24 Intena kundethafe ashanasine intena wothoy bayindayta hisitidi ufayssan ba boncho sinththi shiishanas danda7izayssas;
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.
25 Izi xalala Xoossu gididanne nuusi dhale gidida Goda Yesus kiristoosa baggara benipe doomidi ha7i gakanasine medhinasika bonchoyne gitateth, wolqayne Godateth izas gido. Amin7i. (aiōn g165)
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)
