< 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 them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:
2 Ka ebere na udo na ịhụnanya bara unu ụba.
Mercy unto you, and peace, and 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, 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 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 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 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.
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 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 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 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)
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 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 also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
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.”
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 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 speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
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! 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 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 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 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)
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 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 of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his 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 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 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 murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.
17 Ma unu, ndị m hụrụ nʼanya, chetanụ ihe ndị ozi Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst kwuru na ha ga-emezu.
But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of 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.
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 Ọ bụ ndị anụ ahụ ha na-achị, ndị na-enweghị Mmụọ Nsọ nʼime ha, bụ ndị na-eweta nkewa nʼetiti unu.”
These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not 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 ye, 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 love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Gosinụ ụfọdụ ndị na-enwe obi abụọ ebere.
And of some have compassion, making a difference:
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 others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
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
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 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 the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and authority, both now and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
