Ιουδα 1
1 ιουδας ιησου χριστου δουλος αδελφος δε ιακωβου τοις εν θεω πατρι ηγιασμενοις και ιησου χριστω τετηρημενοις κλητοις
Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them who are sanctified by God the Father, and to the preserved by Jesus Christ, to the called:
2 ελεος υμιν και ειρηνη και αγαπη πληθυνθειη
May mercy, and peace, and love, be multiplied to you.
3 αγαπητοι πασαν σπουδην ποιουμενος γραφειν υμιν περι της κοινης σωτηριας αναγκην εσχον γραψαι υμιν παρακαλων επαγωνιζεσθαι τη απαξ παραδοθειση τοις αγιοις πιστει
Beloved, making all haste to write to you, concerning the common salvation, I thought it necessary to write to you, exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith formerly delivered to the saints.
4 παρεισεδυσαν γαρ τινες ανθρωποι οι παλαι προγεγραμμενοι εις τουτο το κριμα ασεβεις την του θεου ημων χαριν μετατιθεντες εις ασελγειαν και τον μονον δεσποτην θεον και κυριον ημων ιησουν χριστον αρνουμενοι
For certain men have come in privily, who long ago were before written to this very condemnation; ungodly men, perverting the favor of our God to lasciviousness, and denying the only sovereign Lord, even our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 υπομνησαι δε υμας βουλομαι ειδοτας υμας απαξ τουτο οτι ο κυριος λαον εκ γης αιγυπτου σωσας το δευτερον τους μη πιστευσαντας απωλεσεν
I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you formerly knew this, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them who did not believe.
6 αγγελους τε τους μη τηρησαντας την εαυτων αρχην αλλα απολιποντας το ιδιον οικητηριον εις κρισιν μεγαλης ημερας δεσμοις αιδιοις υπο ζοφον τετηρηκεν (aïdios g126)
Also, the angels who kept not their first estate, but left their proper habitation, he has reserved in everlasting chains, under darkness, to the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 ως σοδομα και γομορρα και αι περι αυτας πολεις τον ομοιον τουτοις τροπον εκπορνευσασαι και απελθουσαι οπισω σαρκος ετερας προκεινται δειγμα πυρος αιωνιου δικην υπεχουσαι (aiōnios g166)
Likewise Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, which, after their example, had habitually committed uncleanness, and gone after other flesh, are set forth an example, suffering the punishment of an eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 ομοιως μεντοι και ουτοι ενυπνιαζομενοι σαρκα μεν μιαινουσιν κυριοτητα δε αθετουσιν δοξας δε βλασφημουσιν
Truly, in like manner, also, shall these dreamers be punished--who, indeed, defile the flesh, despise authority, and blaspheme dignities.
9 ο δε μιχαηλ ο αρχαγγελος οτε τω διαβολω διακρινομενος διελεγετο περι του μωσεως σωματος ουκ ετολμησεν κρισιν επενεγκειν βλασφημιας αλλ ειπεν επιτιμησαι σοι κυριος
Whereas, Michael, the Arch Angel, when contending with the devil, (he disputed about the body of Moses, ) did not attempt to bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, "The Lord rebuke":
10 ουτοι δε οσα μεν ουκ οιδασιν βλασφημουσιν οσα δε φυσικως ως τα αλογα ζωα επιστανται εν τουτοις φθειρονται
but these, indeed, revile those things which they do not know; but what things they do know, naturally, as animals void of reason, by these things they destroy themselves.
11 ουαι αυτοις οτι τη οδω του καιν επορευθησαν και τη πλανη του βαλααμ μισθου εξεχυθησαν και τη αντιλογια του κορε απωλοντο
Alas for them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and have run evidently in the error of Balaam's hire, and have perished in the rebellion of Korah.
12 ουτοι εισιν εν ταις αγαπαις υμων σπιλαδες συνευωχουμενοι υμιν αφοβως εαυτους ποιμαινοντες νεφελαι ανυδροι υπο ανεμων περιφερομεναι δενδρα φθινοπωρινα ακαρπα δις αποθανοντα εκριζωθεντα
These men are spots in love feasts, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear. They are clouds without water, carried about of winds: withered autumnal trees without fruit; twice dead; rooted out;
13 κυματα αγρια θαλασσης επαφριζοντα τας εαυτων αισχυνας αστερες πλανηται οις ο ζοφος του σκοτους εις τον αιωνα τετηρηται (aiōn g165)
raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness for ever is reserved. (aiōn g165)
14 προεφητευσεν δε και τουτοις εβδομος απο αδαμ ενωχ λεγων ιδου ηλθεν κυριος εν μυριασιν αγιαις αυτου
Now, Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, indeed, concerning these men; saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with his myriads of holy angels,
15 ποιησαι κρισιν κατα παντων και εξελεγξαι παντας τους ασεβεις αυτων περι παντων των εργων ασεβειας αυτων ων ησεβησαν και περι παντων των σκληρων ων ελαλησαν κατ αυτου αμαρτωλοι ασεβεις
to pass sentence on all, and to convict all the ungodly among them, of all their deeds of ungodliness; which they have impiously committed; and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
16 ουτοι εισιν γογγυσται μεμψιμοιροι κατα τας επιθυμιας αυτων πορευομενοι και το στομα αυτων λαλει υπερογκα θαυμαζοντες προσωπα ωφελειας χαριν
These are murmurers, and complainers, who walk according to their own lusts; and their mouths speak great swelling words. They admire persons for the sake of gain.
17 υμεις δε αγαπητοι μνησθητε των ρηματων των προειρημενων υπο των αποστολων του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
But, beloved, remember the words which were spoken by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 οτι ελεγον υμιν οτι εν εσχατω χρονω εσονται εμπαικται κατα τας εαυτων επιθυμιας πορευομενοι των ασεβειων
that they said to you, that in the last time there would be scoffers walking according to their own ungodly lusts.
19 ουτοι εισιν οι αποδιοριζοντες εαυτους ψυχικοι πνευμα μη εχοντες
These be they who separate themselves, sensual, not having the Spirit.
20 υμεις δε αγαπητοι τη αγιωτατη υμων πιστει εποικοδομουντες εαυτους εν πνευματι αγιω προσευχομενοι
But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying with a holy spirit;
21 εαυτους εν αγαπη θεου τηρησατε προσδεχομενοι το ελεος του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου εις ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios g166)
keep yourselves in the love of God, expecting the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 και ους μεν ελεειτε διακρινομενοι
And making a difference, have compassion, indeed, on some:
23 ους δε εν φοβω σωζετε εκ του πυρος αρπαζοντες μισουντες και τον απο της σαρκος εσπιλωμενον χιτωνα
but others, save by fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 τω δε δυναμενω φυλαξαι υμας απταιστους και στησαι κατενωπιον της δοξης αυτου αμωμους εν αγαλλιασει
Now to him who is able to guard you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory, with exceeding joy;
