Judasi 1
1 Nĩ niĩ Judasi, ndungata ya Jesũ Kristũ, na mũrũ wa nyina na Jakubu, Ndĩraandĩkĩra arĩa metĩtwo, o arĩa mendetwo nĩ Ngai Ithe, na makamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Jesũ Kristũ:
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:
2 Mũroingĩhĩrwo nĩ tha, na thayũ, o na wendani.
Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
3 Arata akwa endwa, o na gũtuĩka nĩndĩrendete mũno kũmwandĩkĩra ũhoro wa ũhonokio ũrĩa tũgwatanĩire na inyuĩ-rĩ, nĩndĩronire kwagĩrĩire ndĩmwandĩkĩre nĩguo ndĩmũringĩrĩrie mũrũagĩrĩre wĩtĩkio ũrĩa wehokeirwo andũ arĩa aamũre ihinda rĩmwe rĩa kũigana.
Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort [you] that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
4 Nĩgũkorwo andũ amwe arĩa ũhoro wao wagũtuĩrwo ciira waandĩkĩtwo o tene nĩmetoonyereirie na hitho thĩinĩ wanyu. Acio nĩ andũ matetigagĩra Ngai, na nĩmagarũraga Wega wa Ngai witũ ũtuĩke wa kũmetĩkĩria kũhũũra ũmaraya, na magakaanaga Jesũ Kristũ, o we wiki Mũnene na Mwathani witũ.
For there are certain men 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.
5 O na mwakorwo nĩmũmenyete ũhoro ũyũ wothe-rĩ, nĩngwenda kũmũririkania atĩ Mwathani nĩakũũrire andũ ake akĩmaruta bũrũri wa Misiri, no thuutha-inĩ akĩniina arĩa matetĩkĩtie.
I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
6 Nao araika arĩa maaregire gũkindĩria wathani-inĩ wao na magĩtiganĩria kũndũ kwao gwa gũtũũra-rĩ, acio nĩamahingĩire nduma-inĩ, nao moheetwo na mĩnyororo ya tene na tene metereirio ituĩro rĩa ciira wa Mũthenya ũrĩa mũnene. (aïdios g126)
And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 Ningĩ o ũndũ ũmwe nao, Sodomu, na Gomora, na matũũra marĩa maariganĩtie nĩmeneanire harĩ ũmaraya na waganu wa mwĩrĩ ũtarĩ wa ndũire. Acio nĩo maatuĩkire kĩonereria kĩa arĩa maherithagio na mwaki wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 O na ningĩ noguo, arooti acio mathũkagia mĩĩrĩ yao ene, na makaregana na wathani, na magacambagia ciũmbe cia kũu igũrũ.
Likewise also these [filthy] dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
9 No rĩrĩ, o na Mikaeli, mũraika ũrĩa mũnene, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maakararanagĩria mwĩrĩ wa Musa na ngoma-rĩ, ndaigana kũgeria kũmũcambia, no oigire atĩrĩ, “Mwathani arogũkaania!”
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.
10 No andũ acio-rĩ, marumaga maũndũ mothe marĩa matahotaga kũmenya; namo maũndũ marĩa mamenyete na ũndũ wa mũciarĩre, ta nyamũ iria iteciiragia-rĩ, maũndũ macio nĩmo meniinaga namo.
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.
11 Kaĩ makĩrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Marũmĩrĩire njĩra ya Kaini; ningĩ magetoonyia na ihenya ihĩtia-inĩ rĩa Balamu nĩguo mone uumithio; o na makĩniinwo ũremi-inĩ wa gũũkĩrĩra wathani ta Kora.
Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
12 Andũ acio nĩ imeni rĩrĩa megũũka maruga-inĩ manyu ma wendani, makarĩanĩra na inyuĩ mategwĩtigĩra o na atĩa. Nĩ arĩithi arĩa merĩithagia o ene. Mahaana ta matu matarĩ na mbura, makĩhurutwo nĩ rũhuho; o na ningĩ mahaana ta mĩtĩ ĩtarĩ na matunda hĩndĩ ya kĩmera, ĩmunyĩĩtwo na mĩri ĩkooma biũ.
These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds [they are] without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 Mahaana ta makũmbĩ ma iria marĩa matangĩgirĩrĩka, makĩhũyũkaga ciĩko ciao cia thoni ta mũhũũyũ; ningĩ matariĩ ta njata ciũrũũraga, iria ciigĩirwo nduma ĩrĩa ndumanu mũno nginya tene. (aiōn g165)
Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever. (aiōn g165)
14 Enoku, ũrĩa wa rũciaro rwa mũgwanja kuuma harĩ Adamu, nĩarathire ũhoro ũkoniĩ andũ acio akiuga ũũ: “Atĩrĩrĩ, Mwathani nĩarooka arĩ na andũ ake arĩa atheru ngiri na ngiri
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15 nĩguo atuĩre o mũndũ ciira, na aiguithie kĩhooto andũ othe arĩa matetigĩrĩĩte Ngai, nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciothe cia kũremera Ngai, iria maaneka mategwĩtigĩra Ngai, o na nĩ ũndũ wa ciugo ciothe njũru iria ehia arĩa matamwĩtigĩrĩte manaaria cia gũũkĩrĩra Ngai.”
To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
16 Andũ aya nĩangʼongʼori, na a gũcarĩria andũ arĩa angĩ mahĩtia; marũmagĩrĩra merirĩria mao mooru; nĩmegaathaga o ene, na makaheenagĩrĩria andũ arĩa angĩ, nĩguo megune o ene.
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.
17 No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ arata akwa endwa, ririkanai ũrĩa atũmwo a Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ maamwĩrire o mbere.
But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 Maamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Mahinda ma kũrigĩrĩria-rĩ, nĩgũkagĩa na anyũrũrania arĩa makarũmagĩrĩra merirĩria mao ene matarĩ ma gwĩtigĩra Ngai.”
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 Acio nĩo andũ arĩa mamwamũranagia, arĩa marũmagĩrĩra merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, no matirĩ na Roho.
These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
20 No inyuĩ arata akwa endwa, ikaragai mũkĩongererekaga hinya thĩinĩ wa wĩtĩkio wanyu ũrĩa mũtheru mũno na mũhooyage mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Roho Mũtheru.
But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Ikaragai thĩinĩ wa wendo wa Ngai mũgĩetagĩrĩra tha cia Mwathani witũ Jesũ Kristũ nĩguo ikaamũkinyia muoyo-inĩ wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Iguagĩrai tha andũ arĩa marĩ na mathangania,
And of some have compassion, making a difference:
23 tharai arĩa angĩ kuuma mwaki-inĩ mũmahonokie; arĩa angĩ-rĩ, maiguĩrei tha, mũrĩ na guoya, na mũgĩthũũraga o na nguo ciao iria ciĩkĩrĩtwo maroro nĩ mwĩrĩ mũthaahie.
And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Na rĩu, kũrĩ ũrĩa ũngĩhota kũmũgitĩra mũtikagwe, na kũmũrũgamia mbere ya ũthiũ wake ũrĩa wĩ riiri mũtarĩ na ũũgũ, na mũrĩ na gĩkeno kĩnene:
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
25 Ngai we wiki Mũhonokia witũ arogĩa na riiri, na ũkaru, na hinya, o na wathani, thĩinĩ wa Jesũ Kristũ Mwathani witũ, o kuuma kĩambĩrĩria, o na rĩu, na nginya tene na tene! Ameni. (aiōn g165)
To the only wise God our Saviour, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
