< Jid 1 >
1 Jude, yon sèvitè-atache nèt a Jésus Kri, epi frè la a Jacques, ekri a sa yo ki rele sen nan Bondye, Papa a, epi ki konsève pou Jésus Kri.
JIHUDA, servant of Jeshu Meshiha, but brother of Jakub, to the called people, who are beloved of Aloha the Father, (and) in Jeshu Meshiha preserved:
2 Ke mizerikòd la, lapè, ak lamou kapab ogmante anvè nou.
Mercy and peace in love be multiplied unto you.
3 Byeneme yo, pandan mwen t ap fè tout efò pou ekri nou selon delivrans ke nou pataje ansanm, mwen te sanse ke m te bezwen ekri nou epi plede avèk nou ke nou lite fò pou lafwa ki te delivre yon fwa pou tout a sen yo.
My beloved, while giving all diligence to write to you concerning our common salvation, it is needful for me to write to you, exhorting you (in particular) to do battle for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.
4 Paske gen sèten moun yo ki te glise antre nan mitan nou san ke nou pa wè, sa yo ki te fin make pou kondanasyon sila depi avan lè; moun san Bondye ki ta vire lagras Bondye nou pou vini yon lisans pou fè sa ki mal, epi rejete sèl Mèt ak Senyè nou, Jésus Kri.
For certain men have obtained entrance, who from the beginning were proscribed in this condemnation; depraved men, who the grace of Aloha turn unto lasciviousness, and him who is the only Lord GOD, our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, deny.
5 Koulye a, mwen vle fè nou sonje, malgre ke nou deja konnen tout bagay yo nèt, ke Senyè a apre Li te delivre yon pèp sòti nan Égypte, apre te detwi tout sa yo ki pa t kwè.
But I will to remind you, though all of you know, that Aloha, when once the people from Metsreen he had redeemed, yet afterward destroyed them who believed not.
6 Epi zanj yo ki pa t kenbe pwòp wòl yo, men te abandonnen pwòp plas yo, Li te kenbe byen anchennen anba tenèb la, pou jijman a nan gran jou a. (aïdios )
And the angels who kept not their primacy, but left their habitation, unto the judgment of the great day in chains unknown, under darkness, he hath kept. (aïdios )
7 Menm jan ke Sodome ak Gomorrhe ansanm ak vil yo ki te antoure yo, akoz ke yo fè menm bagay, epi te antre nan imoralite a byen lèd, epi t ap chache vis lachè yo ki pa t menm twouve nan nati, se prezante kon yon egzanp, e te pase nan pinisyon dife etènèl a. (aiōnios )
As Sadum and Omuro, and the cities which were around them, which in manner of them committed fornication, and went after other flesh, are lying under everlasting fire, condemned unto judgment. (aiōnios )
8 Malgre sa, moun sa yo fè menm bagay la. Ak rèv ke yo fè, yo defile lachè a, rejete otorite a, epi meprize zanj majestik yo.
In this manner also (will perish) those who, in sleep imagining, defile the flesh, but contemn government, and blaspheme majesty.
9 Men lakanj Michel, lè li te dispite avèk dyab la, epi te despite sou kò Moise la, pa t menm tante pwononse yon jijman cho, men te di “Ke Bondye bay ou repwòch.”
Yet Mikael, chief of angels, when, with the accuser speaking, he contended on account of the body of Musha, dared not bring against him a reviling judgment, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 Men moun sa yo meprize sa ke yo pa menm konprann. Konsa, se pa bagay yo ke yo konnen pa lensten, kon bèt ki pa ka menm rezonen, ke yo vin detwi.
But these the things which they know not revile; but through those by which naturally as the beasts they are swayed, they are corrupted.
11 Malè a yo! Paske yo ale menm jan avèk Caïn. Pou yon salè yo te kouri tèt an avan nan erè Balaam nan, epi te peri nan rebelyon Koré a.
Woe to them; for in the way of Koen they have gone, and after the error of Belam for gain they have burned, and in the rebellion of Kurach they have perished.
12 Moun sa yo se resif yo k ap kashe nan fèt lamou sen nou yo, lè yo vin fète avèk nou san fè lakrent, men konsène sèlman ak pwòp tèt pa yo. Yo se nwaj yo ki san dlo, pote pa van a, bwa sezon fwèt la san fwi, de fwa mò, dechouke menm;
These are they who, in their recreations contaminating, behave wantonly, feeding themselves without reverence; clouds without rain, roaming with the winds; trees whose fruit withereth, and which are unfruitful, twice dead, and uplifted from their root;
13 volas lanmè sovaj yo, k ap kimen nan pwòp wont yo tout kalite lenpirite yo; zetwal erann pou kilès tenèb nwa a te rezève jis pou janmen. (aiōn )
turbulent waves of the sea, which, by their foaming, manifest their shame; erring stars, unto whom the blackness of darkness that is eternal is reserved. (aiōn )
14 Epi selon sa yo tou Énoch nan setyèm jenerasyon Adam, te fè pwofesi e te di “Byen gade, Senyè a te vini avèk anpil milye yo a moun sen pa Li yo,
But Hanuk also, who was the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh, with myriads of his saints,
15 pou egzekite jijman sou tout, epi pou fè rann kont a tout enkwayan yo avèk zak enpi pa yo, ke yo t ap fè nan yon jan ki san respè Bondye, epi tout move bagay ke pechè yo san fwa te pale kont Li.”
To execute judgment upon all; And to convict all the wicked for all their deeds Which they have wickedly done; And for all those obdurate words Which ungodly sinners have spoken.
16 Sa yo se moun k ap plenyen fò nan gòj, k ap toujou twouve fòt, epi k ap swiv pwòp lanvi lachè pa yo. Yo pale avèk awogans, flatè moun, pou yo kapab gen yon avantaj.
These are they who murmur and complain of every thing, while walking according to their own desires; their mouth speaking portentous things, and extolling persons for the sake of gain.
17 Men nou, byeneme yo dwe sonje pawòl yo ki te pale oparavan pa apot a Senyè nou yo, Jésus Kri
But you, my beloved, remember those words which before were spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha,
18 ke yo t ap di a nou ke “Nan dènye tan, ap gen mokè yo, k ap swiv pwòp lanvi pa yo san fwa nan Bondye.”
who told you that in the last times there would be those who scoff, who according to their own desires go after wickedness.
19 Se sa yo ki lakòz a divizyon yo, moun k ap reflechi kon lemonn lan, ki san Lespri a.
These are they who separate; -animals, in whom the Spirit is not.
20 Men nou, byeneme yo an nou bati sou lafwa ki sen pase tout; epi priye nan Lespri Sen an.
But you, my beloved, in your holy faith be edified anew, praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 Kenbe nou menm nan lamou Bondye, epi toujou tan swayezman pou mizerikòd a Senyè nou an, Jésus Kri anvè lavi etènèl. (aiōnios )
ourselves in the love of Aloha to keep, while looking for the mercy of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha unto our eternal salvation. (aiōnios )
22 Fè mizerikòd sou kèk k ap doute,
And some of them snatch from the fire.
23 sove lòt. Rachte yo menm nan dife a ak laperèz, epi sou kèk fè mizerikòd avèk rayisman menm pou rad ki te salè pa lachè.
But when they repent, have compassion on them, with fear, hating even the tunic which by the flesh is contaminated.
24 Koulye a, a Li menm ki kapab kenbe nou pou nou pa tonbe, epi fè nou kanpe nan prezans laglwa Li san fòt avèk gran jwa,
But to him who is able to keep you without falling and without spot, and to establish you without blemish, Aloha our only Saviour by Jeshu Meshiha our Lord, before his majesty with joy,
25 a sèl Bondye Sovè nou an, atravè Jésus Kri Senyè nou, se laglwa, majeste, pwisans, ak otorite, menm avan tout tan, rive Koulye a, epi jis pou janmen. Amen. (aiōn )
Be glory, and dominion, and honour, and grandeur, both now and in all ages. Amen. (aiōn )
