Jud 1
1 Jud, odibo Jisọs Kraịst, na nwanne Jemis, Na-edegara ndị niile a kpọrọ, ndị ahụrụ nʼanya nʼime Chineke, bụ Nna, na ndị nọkwa nʼokpuru nchebe Jisọs Kraịst akwụkwọ ozi a:
Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called beloved in God the Father, and kept in Jesus Christ.
2 Ka ebere na udo na ịhụnanya bara unu ụba.
Mercy to you, and peace, and divine love be multiplied.
3 Ndị m hụrụ nʼanya, ebe ọ na-anụ m ọkụ nʼobi idere unu akwụkwọ banyere nzọpụta ahụ anyị nwekọrọ nʼotu, ma ahụrụ m mkpa ọ dị idere unu akwụkwọ a, ịrịọ unu ka unu guzosie ike buo agha ichebe okwukwe ahụ, nke e nyefere ndị nsọ nʼaka idebe.
Beloved, making all haste to write to you concerning our common salvation, I had need to write to you, exhorting you to agonize for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
4 Nʼihi na ụfọdụ mmadụ, bụ ndị e dere ihe banyere ọmụma ikpe dịrị ha, siterị nʼoge gara aga, ezobatala nʼetiti unu. Ha bụ ndị na-adịghị asọpụrụ Chineke, ndị na-agbanwe amara Chineke anyị, mee ya ka ọ bụrụ ohere ha nwere ibi ndụ ịkwa iko, na nke ịgọnarị Jisọs Kraịst, onye naanị ya bụ Onye kachasị ihe niile elu na Onyenwe.
For certain men have crept in, who long ago were written down to this judgment, ungodly, transforming the grace of God into impurity, even denying Jesus Christ, our only Sovereign and Lord.
5 Ọ bụ ezie na unu maa ihe ndị a niile, ma achọrọ m ichetara unu otu Onyenwe anyị si zọpụta ndị ya site nʼala Ijipt, ma mesịa laa ndị niile na-ekweghị ekwe nʼiyi.
But I wish you to remember, once having known all these things, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, destroyed them that believed riot, the second time:
6 Ndị mmụọ ozi nupuru isi, ndị na-anọgideghị nʼọnọdụ e nyere ha, kama ha si nʼebe obibi ha gbapụ. O jirila igwe kee ha agbụ ebighị ebi, debe ha nʼọchịchịrị nʼime ala, ebe ha ga-anọ ruo ụbọchị ikpe ahụ dị egwu. (aïdios g126)
and the angels who kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, has he kept in eternal chains unto darkness unto the judgment of the great day: (aïdios g126)
7 Otu a kwa, Sọdọm na Gọmọra na obodo niile gbara ha gburugburu, bụ ndị nyefere onwe ha na ndụ ịkwa iko nakwa omume ibi ndụ ọjọọ dị iche iche nke anụ ahụ, bụ ihe ịdọ aka na ntị nye ndị mmadụ site nʼahụhụ ha tara nʼihi mmehie nʼime ọkụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, in a manner like unto them committing fornication, and going after other flesh, present an example receiving the vengeance of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Nʼụzọ dị otu a kwa, ndị a na-emerụ anụ ahụ ha nʼirọ nrọ ha, na-ajụkwa ike ọchịchị niile, ma na-ekwulukwa ndị ahụ jupụtara nʼebube nke anya na-adịghị ahụ.
Likewise indeed these dreamers also pollute the flesh, and reject lordship, and blaspheme glories.
9 Ma Maikel onyeisi ndị mmụọ ozi, mgbe o guzogidere ekwensu na-arụrịtakwa ụka banyere ozu Mosis, ya onwe ya enweghị anya ike ịma ya ikpe nʼihi okwu nkwulu, kama ọ sịrị, “Ka Onyenwe anyị baara gị mba.”
But Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed over the body of Moses, did not dare to bring against him a judgment of blasphemy, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 Ma ndị a na-ekwulu ihe niile ọbụla ha na-aghọtaghị. Dịka ụmụ anụmanụ a na-azụghị azụ, ha na-eme ihe ọbụla dị ha mma nʼanya si otu a na-ala onwe ha nʼiyi.
But these blaspheme so many things as they know not: and so many things as they understand naturally, like irrational animals, in these they are corrupted.
11 Ahụhụ ga-adịrị ha, nʼihi na ha soro nzọ ụkwụ Ken, nyefee onwe ha na ndahie Belam nʼihi ihe nrite nʼuru, ma laa nʼiyi na nnupu isi Kora.
Woe unto them! because they have gone off in the way of Cain, and in the delusion of Balaam they have been seduced by reward, and they perished in the gainsaying of Korah.
12 Ndị a bụ ihe ntụpọ nʼetiti unu nʼoge mmemme oriri ịhụnanya unu, ha na-eso unu na-erikọ nri na-atụghị egwu ọbụla. Ha bụ ndị na-elekọta naanị onwe ha. Ha dị ka igwe ojii nke na-adịghị ezo mmiri, nke ifufe na-ebugharị. Ha bụ osisi a na-ahụ nʼoge ọkọchị nke na-adịghị amị mkpụrụ, nke e si na mgbọrọgwụ ya hoputa, nke nwụrụ anwụ ugboro abụọ.
These are rocks in your love-feasts, feasting along with you without fear shepherdizing themselves, clouds without water, driven away by the winds; withered trees, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 Ha bụ ebili mmiri na-amagharị nʼosimiri, nke na-asọpụta ihere ha dịka ụfụfụ, kpakpando na-awagharị awagharị, bụ ndị nke a kwadooro ebe kachasị ịgba ọchịchịrị ruo ebighị ebi. (aiōn g165)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own disgraces; wandering stars, for which the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Ọ bụ nʼihi ihe ndị a ka Enọk, onye bụ agbụrụ nke asaa site nʼAdam buru nʼamụma banyere ha sị, “Lee! Onyenwe anyị na-abịa, ya na puku kwụrụ puku ndị nsọ ya.
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied against these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with his myriads of saints,
15 Ọ na-abịa ikpe mmadụ niile ikpe, na ịtụ ha niile mmehie ajọ omume niile ha nʼanya, bụ nke ha mere nʼụzọ na-ezighị ezi. Tinyere okwu ọjọọ niile nke ndị mmehie ndị na-adịghị asọpụrụ Chineke kwuru megide ya.”
to execute judgment against all, and to convict all the ungodly of them for all the works of their ungodliness which they have impiously done, and for all their hard speeches which they have spoken against him, being ungodly sinners.
16 Ndị a bụ ndị na-atamu ntamu oge niile, ndị o nweghị ihe ọbụla na-adị ha mma. Ndị na-agbaso agụ ihe ọjọọ niile nke anụ ahụ ha chọrọ. Ha na-anya isi banyere onwe ha, na-aja ndị ọzọ mma; ka ha nwee ike nweta ihe ha na-achọ nʼaka ha.
These are querulous grumblers, going forth according to their own lusts; and their mouth speaking swelling words, admiring persons for the sake of gain.
17 Ma unu, ndị m hụrụ nʼanya, chetanụ ihe ndị ozi Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst kwuru na ha ga-emezu.
But you, beloved, remember the words which have hitherto been spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 Nʼihi na ha sịrị unu, “Nʼọgwụgwụ oge ahụ, ndị na-eji ihe niile na-emere ihe ọchị ga-adị. Ndị na-agbaso agụ ihe ọjọọ niile nke anụ ahụ ha chọrọ.
that they said to you, At the last time there will be mockers, walking according to their own lusts after ungodly things.
19 Ọ bụ ndị anụ ahụ ha na-achị, ndị na-enweghị Mmụọ Nsọ nʼime ha, bụ ndị na-eweta nkewa nʼetiti unu.”
These are they who are sidetracking [the people], intellectual, not having the Spirit.
20 Ma unu, ndị m hụrụ nʼanya, nọgidenụ na-ewuli onwe unu elu na ntọala okwukwe unu dịkarịsịrị nsọ. Na-ekpekwanụ ekpere nʼime Mmụọ Nsọ.
But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Doonụ onwe unu nʼokpuru ịhụnanya Chineke, dịka unu na-echere ebere Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst nke na-eduba na ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
keep yourselves in the divine love of God, receiving the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Gosinụ ụfọdụ ndị na-enwe obi abụọ ebere.
And some of whom indeed convict, being judged:
23 Zọpụtanụ ndị ọzọ site nʼịgụpụta ha nʼọkụ. Nʼebe ndị ọzọ nọ gosinụ ha obi ebere, kama jirinụ ịtụ egwu mee nke a, kpọọnụ ọ bụladị uwe nke anụ ahụ mmehie merụrụ asị.
and some save, seizing them out of the fire; and some pity in their fear, you indeed hating the garment having been spotted by carnality.
24 Ugbu a, nye onye ahụ pụrụ ichebe unu, ka unu ghara ịda, onye pụrụ ịkpọbata unu nʼihu ya dị ebube nʼọnọdụ enweghị ntụpọ ọbụla nʼoke ọṅụ
But to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to establish you blameless in the presence of his glory with rejoicing.
25 ka otuto, na ịdị ukwuu, na ike, na ikike ọchịchị; dịrị Onye naanị ya bụ Chineke, Onye nzọpụta anyị, site na Jisọs Kraịst Onyenwe anyị, tupu nʼọgbọ niile ebido, ka ọ dịrị ya ugbu a, na mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Amen. (aiōn g165)
to God our only Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and power, before every age, both now, and unto all the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
