[I am] Jude. I [serve] Jesus Christ [like] a voluntary slave [MET]. I am a [younger] brother of James, [the leader of all the congregations. I am writing] to you whom [God] has chosen [to belong to him. You are] loved by God [our] Father and protected by Jesus Christ (OR, whom [God] has protected [to present] to Jesus Christ).
2 Anumzamofo asunkuzanki, arimpa fru'zanki, avesi'zanena mago'ane erisageno, aviteno tamagripina mesie.
[I pray that] you will continue to [experience] very much [God acting] mercifully toward you, [causing you to have inner] peace, and loving [you].

You whom I love, I (was very eager/very much wanted) to write to you about that which we all (share/have in common), which is how ([God/Jesus Christ]) [has] saved [us]. But now I realize that it is necessary [for me] to write to you in order to exhort you to defend the [truth about Christ] that we believe. [Jesus and his apostles] gave that truth once and for all to us who belong to God, [and we must not let it be changed] {[anyone revise/change it]}.
4 Na'ankure mago'a mono ontahi vahe'mo'za onkazageno, ko rerakaure'za amuno tamifi efre'naze. Ana vahe'mo'za amanage hugahaze, Anumzamo'a kumira atre'nezamantea zanku amane havi avu'avara hugahune hu'za nehaze. E'inahukna vahe'mo'za inankna henka hugahaze, korapa refako huzamantene. Na'ankure Kva netimofo Ranti Jisas Kraisina ha'rentegahaze.
Some people falsely [teach that because] God kindly does for us what we do not deserve, it (does not matter/is all right) if we continue to sin. [Those people show by the way that they conduct their lives] that they do not want to admit/accept that Jesus Christ [is] our only Master and Lord. [It was written] long ago {[Someone] long ago wrote} that [God] would condemn (such ungodly people/people like that whose lives are displeasing to him). But some [of those] people have entered [MET] [like crawling snakes] into your congregations [and oppose the truth about Christ, so you must resist/oppose them].
5 Ko amana zana maka antahinazanki, huramagesahu kema tamasamisuana, Ramo'a Israeli vahera miko Isipitira zamagu'vazino zamavareno atirami'neanagi, henka ana Israeli vahe'mo'za, Agrite'ma zamentintima osazageno'a zamahe fanane hu'ne.
Although you previously knew all these things, [there are certain things about] which I desire to remind you. [Do not forget that although] the Lord rescued [his people] from Egypt, he later destroyed most of those same people, ones who did not believe [in him].
6 Hagi Anumzamoma ankero vaheku'ma huno, e'i avamente maniho huzmantege'za ana kemofo agorga'a omanizageno, katuofe kina rezamanteno hanizampi kina huzamantege'za mani'neza, henkama ranknarema refakoma hania knama esigu avega ante'za mani'naze. (aïdios g126)
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
7 Hagi tamagera okaniho, Sodomu rankumate'ma, Gomora rankumate'ma, ana tava'onte'ma me'nea kumatamimpima monko avu'avazama hu antahintahimo avitege'za, omane'neankna monko'za hu'naze. E'i ana kumatamina tevereti zamahe fanane hu'neankino, e'i ana hukna hu'za kefo'zama nehaza vahera, henka'a tevava tevefi mani'ne'za zamata erigahaze. (Jen-Agf 19.) (aiōnios g166)
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
8 E'i anhukna kante, ana vahe'mo'za zamagra avanama kazazamo zamavufaga zamazeri pehenage nehige'za, kavama krizmante'nemofo agorga'a nomaniza, masazama'ane nemaniza ankero vahetamina huhaviza hunezmantaze.
Similarly, these [ungodly people in your midst] also defile their own bodies [by living immorally], because [they claim/say that God revealed] in visions [that they should act that way]. They refuse to [allow] anyone to have authority over them, and they (revile/speak evil about) [God’s] glorious/wonderful [angels].
9 Hu'neanagi Maikoli ugota ankero ne'mo, Mosese avufama erinaku keha'ma Sata'enema nereno'a, huhavizana huonte'ne. Hianagi Ramo'a kagrira kea kasuno kea hugantesie huno Satana asami'ne.
When (the devil/Satan) argued with the chief angel, Michael, about [who would take away] the body of [the prophet] Moses [to bury it], Michael did not [do as these teachers of false doctrine do. Even though Michael has much more authority than they do], he did not disrespectfully (revile/say evil things to) Satan and accuse/condemn him. Instead, he [only] said, “[I desire that] the Lord [God] will rebuke you!”
10 Hianagi zamagra antahi'za ke'zama osu'naza zankura huhaviza hunente'za, afu kra antahintahine mani'ne'za, e'inama hazazamo zamagra'a zamazeri haviza nehaze.
But the [ones in your midst] who teach false doctrine (revile/speak evil against) the [spiritual] beings that they do not understand. They also [do the evil things that they desire], things that they know about (naturally/without needing to think), things that they just do without considering [the consequences/results], like animals. So they destroy themselves. [But they will also be punished by God] {[God will also] punish them}.
11 Zamagra'a kva hiho! Zamagritera havizantfa fore hugahianki, na'ankure Keni'ma kefo avu'ava'ma huno nagna'amofoma ahe fri'neanka nehaze.

[God will do] terrible things to those who teach false doctrine! They conduct their lives [wickedly] like Cain, [who murdered his brother because he was] ([jealous/angry because God accepted his brother’s sacrifice and did not accept his]). These false teachers (devote themselves to [MET] [doing] wrong things [like] Balaam, who [tried to induce God’s people to sin in order to get the money that was offered to him]. They will perish like Korah, who rebelled [against the authority that God gave to Moses].
12 Hagi ana vahe'mo'za Ramofo avesizanku'ma muse huta ne'zama retro'ma hanafina zamagraguke nentahi'za zamagazegura nosu'za tamagripima efresu'za, hagerimpi havemo me'neno ventema ahe haviza hiankna nehu'za, hampomo eri atru huteno ko'ma orienkna hu'za rama'a huvempa hugahazanagi, anama huvempa hu'nesazazana osugahaze.

Those teachers of false doctrine are [as dangerous to you as] [MET] (hidden rocks on a reef/rocks underneath the surface of the ocean) [are to a boat]. When you gather together [to eat the meals that] help you believers to love each other more and have a closer relationship with each other, they [join you and] carouse shamelessly, caring [only] for themselves [and not for others. Because they do not do anything to help others] [MET], they are [as useless as] clouds that are blown along by the wind {that the wind blows along} but that do not [produce/give] any rain. [They are as disappointing as] [MET] trees that do not produce fruit in the autumn [as we expect them to]. They are not only [spiritually] [MET] dead themselves, [but they are] not [able to cause others to be] alive [spiritually, just like] [MET] trees that have been {that [someone] has} uprooted and [as a result] are unable to produce any fruit.

They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
14 Hagi Inoku'a, Adamunteti maniza e'naza vahepintira 7nire ehanati'nea naga nofipinti ne'mo ama ana vahekura kasanampa kea hunteno anage hu'ne, Ramo'a hampriga osu'nea ruotge hu'namo'zane ne-eanki keho.
Enoch, the sixth [person in the line of people who descended] from Adam, prophesied this about those [teachers of false doctrine]: “Listen carefully to this: The Lord will certainly come with a countless number of his holy [angels] in order
15 Agra ama mopafi vahera refkoma hunezmanteno, Anumzamofo avu'ava'ma nosu'za havi zamavu'zmava nehu'za, Anumzamofo eri'zama e'noriza, Agri'ma huhavizama huntesaza vahera, hanavetino kea huzmantegahie.
to judge everyone, and to punish all wicked and (ungodly people/people whose lives are displeasing to God) for all the (ungodly things/things that displease God) that they did in (an ungodly way/a way that displeases God), and for all the harsh things that ungodly sinful people have spoken against him.”
16 Zamagra zamarimpa knage nehu'za, nazinke nehantage'za, kefozama hunaku'ma hanazaza hugahaze. Zamagra rankege nehu'za ru'mozama zamigima zamizankuke hu vahe manigahaze.
Those [teachers] of [false doctrine] grumble [about] the [things that God does]. They complain [about what happens to them]. They do the sinful things that their [bodies] desire. They talk boastfully. They (flatter/say nice things to) people, only in order to get [those people to give them the] things that they want.
17 Hu'neanagi navesima neramantoa nenafugata tamagera okaniho, Rantimofo Jisasi Kraisi aposol naga'mo'za tamasimiza,
But you people whom I love need to remember the things that were predicted by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ {that the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said would happen}.
18 henka vagare knafina hunte'za kiza zokago ke hunte vahe fore nehu'za Anumzamofoma zamage'na hunemi'za, kefo zamavuzamava hanaza vahe manigahaze.
They told you, “In the final period of time [in which we are now living] there will be people who will laugh at [the truths that God has revealed]. They will do the (ungodly things/things that are displeasing to God) that their [bodies] desire.”
19 E'ina vahe'mo'za amu'no tamifina atane'zana avare'neramize. Zamagra ama mopafi vahe'mofo antahintahi nevaririze. Na'ankure Anumzamofo Avamumo'a' zamagripina omanine.
[That describes] the teachers of false doctrine [well, because] they are the ones who cause divisions among believers. They do what their own minds tell them to do. The Spirit [of God] does not live within them.
20 Hianagi navesima neramantomota tamagra ruotge hu'nea tamentintifina hagetma mrenerita, Ruotge Avamumo'a tamaza nehina nunamuna hiho.
But you people whom I love, (hold/continue to trust) firmly to the very sacred truths that you believe. Pray by [letting] the Holy Spirit enable/empower you.
21 Hagi Anumzamofo avesizampi nemanita, Rantimo Jisas Kraisi asunku zampima manivava manizama tamikema hu'nea zankura tamavresra osu avega anteho. (aiōnios g166)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
22 Zamentintimo hanavema otinesia vahera, zmasunku huzmanteta zamaza hiho.
Mercifully [help] those who are not certain [what teaching they should believe].
23 Hagi mago'amo'za tevefi ko mani'nazanki, ame huta tevefintira zamaza huta hanageho. Mago'amokizmia tamasunku huzmanteta zamaza hugahazanagi, zamagri kefo'zamoma tamazeri havizama huzankura, tamagra kva hiho.
[Rescue] others from [the influence of those who teach what is false] [MET], [as you would rescue things by] snatching [them from] a fire. Pity those [whom the teachers of false doctrine have completely convinced], but beware that [you yourselves are not influenced by them] {that they do not influence you}. Detest [doing or even thinking about the sins that those people commit, just like you would detest] [MET] touching not only filthy things but the clothes that were stained by those things {that those things stained}.
24 Hagi menina Anumzamo'a tanafama hu'zankura kegava huneramanteno, Agra tavaresigeta Agri'a masafi kumitami omanena, tusi'a musezampi manigahaze.
God is able to keep you from ceasing to trust in him (OR, from sinning), and he is able to bring you into his glorious presence. [As you stand before him], there will be nothing [for which] you [will] be condemned {[he can] condemn you}, and you will be rejoicing greatly.
25 Ramo, Jisas Kraisimpi tagu'vazino taza hu'nea Nera, Agrake Anumzamo mani'ne, Tamage. Masazanki, ra agigi, hanavegi, kavatia Agrake korapara mani'neankino menina mani'neno, henka manivava huno vugahie. Tamage. (aiōn g165)
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
