1 Ri Judas patanil re ri Jesucristo, xuqujeꞌ rachalal ri Jacobo, chike ri e sikꞌital apanoq xuqujeꞌ e loqꞌ pa Dios Tataxel e yaktal pa Jesucristo:
JUDE a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are sanctified in God the Father, and preserved by Jesus Christ, the called:
2 Toqꞌobꞌsabꞌal wach, jaꞌmaril xuqujeꞌ loqꞌanik chuya ri Dios chiꞌwe.
mercy unto you, and peace and love be multiplied.
3 Loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, sibꞌalaj urayim na kꞌuꞌx kintzꞌibꞌaj chiꞌwe chirij ri koltajem ri xyaꞌtaj chaqe. Kawaj kꞌut chi kikoj ichuqꞌabꞌ chujeqebꞌaxik ri ikojobꞌal ri xya chike konojel ri e Tyoxalaj taq winaq.
Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you concerning the common salvation, I held it necessary to write unto you, exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered unto the saints.
4 Jeriꞌ rumal cher e kꞌi winaq xoꞌk chiꞌxoꞌl, we winaq riꞌ ojer qꞌattal chi loq tzij pa kiwiꞌ rumal cher e rech chi wi ri kꞌax. Itzel taq winaq kakibꞌij chi utz kemakun pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ ri Dios xuqujeꞌ kakawoj ri xa jun kwinel laj Ajawxel Jesucristo.
For certain men have craftily introduced themselves, who were from of old proscribed for this condemnation, ungodly men, changing the grace of God into impurity, and denying our only sovereign God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 Pune iwetaꞌm chik ronojel waꞌ we jastaq riꞌ, kawaj kinnaꞌtaj chiꞌwe chi ri Ajawxel are xeꞌresaj loq ri utinimit pa Egipto, xukꞌis kan pa kiwiꞌ ri man xekojon ta che.
But I would remind you, though ye once knew this, that the Lord, though he delivered the people out of the land of Egypt, afterwards destroyed those who believed not.
6 Xuqujeꞌ ri angelibꞌ ri man xkibꞌan ta ri xbꞌix chike xane xkitzaq kanoq ri kachoch ri yaꞌtal rumal ri Dios, e tzꞌapital pa ri qꞌequꞌmal kamik xaq kayeꞌm ri nimalaj qꞌij are kaqꞌat tzij pa kiwiꞌ. (aïdios )
And the angels who preserved not their own primitive state, but deserted their proper abode, hath he reserved in everlasting chains under darkness, unto the judgment of the great day. (aïdios )
7 Jewaꞌ xuqujeꞌ xkꞌulmataj kukꞌ ri tinimit Sodoma xuqujeꞌ ri tinimit Gomorra xuqujeꞌ ri tinimit ri e kꞌo chikinaqaj jeriꞌ rumal cher xemakunik xkibꞌan mak kukꞌ taq achyabꞌ xuqujeꞌ kukꞌ ixoqibꞌ, xuqujeꞌ xkibꞌan ri man taqal ta ubꞌanik rumal riꞌ ri Dios xutaq loq qꞌaqꞌ pa kiwiꞌ ri man kꞌo ta ukꞌisik. (aiōnios )
As Sodom and Gomorrha and the surrounding cities, in like manner with them abandoned to whoredom, and going after other flesh, are set forth an example, suffering the judicial punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios )
8 Pune jeriꞌ we achyabꞌ riꞌ e bꞌanal taq achikꞌ, kakibꞌan mak rukꞌ ri kityoꞌjal, keꞌketzelaj ri qꞌatal taq tzij xuqujeꞌ kakibꞌij ri awas ubꞌixik chike ri kwinem rech chikajil.
In like manner also do these men, even when they dream, defile indeed the flesh, despise sovereignty, and revile dignities.
9 Ri kinimal ri angelibꞌ Miguel man ne xubꞌij ta jun itzel tzij che ri itzel are xechꞌoꞌjin puꞌwiꞌ ri utyoꞌjal ri Moisés, man xuqꞌat ta tzij puꞌwiꞌ rukꞌ kꞌaxal xane xwi xubꞌij che: “¡Are ri Ajawxel Dios chatyajowoq!”
Though Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil, he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not to produce a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 Are kꞌu we winaq riꞌ, kakibꞌij ri awas ubꞌixik che ronojel ri man kakichꞌobꞌ taj. Jer e kꞌo ri awajibꞌ kakibꞌan ri kubꞌij ri kichomabꞌal chike, rumal waꞌ kakꞌis na tzij pa kiwiꞌ.
But these men speak evil even of the things of which they have no knowledge: but such things as they know naturally, as the brute beasts, in these they corrupt themselves.
11 ¡Kꞌax kech rumal cher xkitereneꞌj ri ubꞌe ri Caín! Xkibꞌan kech jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Balaam xkikꞌam pwaq tojbꞌal rech ubꞌanik ri etzelal, man xeniman taj jetaq ri xubꞌan ri Coré.
Wo unto them! for they have walked in the way of Cain, and have eagerly run in Balaam’s erroneous path of hire, and have perished in opposition, like Corah.
12 We winaq riꞌ e chꞌuluj ri kekꞌojiꞌ pa ri iriqoj ibꞌ, man kakimochꞌ ta kibꞌ xaq aꞌreꞌ kakiyuqꞌuj kibꞌ, jer e kꞌo ri sutzꞌ ri man kꞌo ta jabꞌ chupam e kꞌamtal bꞌik rumal ri kyaqiqꞌ kepaqiꞌk kexuliꞌk. Jer e kꞌo ri cheꞌ ri man kawachin taj, kebꞌ mul e kaminaq, kejunumataj rukꞌ ri cheꞌ ri man tikil ta chi ri ukꞌaꞌmal pa ri ulew.
These are in your feasts of love, as sunken rocks; though joining in your banquet, they feed themselves fearlessly; clouds without water carried about by the winds; trees untimely withering, fruitless, twice dead, rooted up;
13 Kejunumataj rukꞌ ri jaꞌ re ri plo man kakꞌix taj karesaj loq ri uwusuw ri ukꞌixibꞌal. Jer e kꞌo ri chꞌumil ri man ketaꞌm taj jaw kebꞌe wi, we winaq riꞌ e yaktalik rech kekꞌyaq bꞌik pa ri nimalaj qꞌequꞌmal. (aiōn )
raging billows of the sea foaming out their own infamies; stars wandering from their courses, for whom the blackness of darkness for ever is reserved. (aiōn )
14 Are waꞌ ri xutzijoj loq ri Enoc, wuqubꞌ qꞌalajisal tzij xchapleꞌtaj loq rajilaxik rukꞌ ri Adán, xubꞌij: “Chiwilampeꞌ, ri Ajawxel kape na e rachiꞌl sibꞌalaj e kꞌi u angelibꞌ.
Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied also of these men, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with myriads of his saints,
15 Rech kuluqꞌata tzij pa kiwiꞌ konojel ri winaq ri itzel taq winaq, xuqujeꞌ che ronojel ri itzel taq chak ri kibꞌanom xuqujeꞌ ri kibꞌim kꞌaxa taq tzij che.”
to execute judgment against all men, and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness which they have impiously committed, and of all the bitter words which impious offenders have spoken against him.
16 We winaq riꞌ kakibꞌij itzel taq tzij pa kanimaꞌ, are kakitereneꞌj ri itzel taq kirayinik, nimal chike, keꞌkitaqchiꞌj nikꞌaj chik chubꞌanik mak rech kakikꞌamawaꞌj ri kakaj.
These men are murmurers, complainers at their lot in life, walking after their own corrupt passions; and their mouth utters hyperbolically pompous expressions, pretending high personal admiration, in order to make their advantage.
17 Ri ix kꞌut loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, naꞌtaj chiꞌwe ri tzij ri xkitzijoj loq ri e taqoꞌn rech ri Ajawxel Jesucristo,
But ye, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
18 xkibꞌij: “Pa taq ri kꞌisbꞌal taq qꞌij kepe na winaq ri xaq aꞌj yoqꞌolobꞌ, ri are kakitereneꞌj na ri itzel taq kirayinik.”
how they told you that in the last time there will be scoffers, walking after their own ungodly passions.
19 Are waꞌ ri kekojow chꞌoꞌj chikixoꞌl ri alaxik rech keꞌkiqꞌat bꞌik, xuqujeꞌ are kakibꞌan ri urayibꞌal kikꞌuꞌx, rumal cher man kꞌo ta ri Uxlabꞌixel pa kanimaꞌ.
These are the men who separate themselves, sensual, destitute of the Spirit.
20 Are kꞌu ri ix loqꞌalaj taq wachalal, chixjeqeloq pa ri uloqꞌanik ri Dios, chixkꞌiyoq pa ri Tyoxalaj kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ chibꞌana chꞌawem pa ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, rech jeriꞌ kiwayeꞌj chi ri Ajawxel Jesucristo pa ri utoqꞌobꞌ kuya na chiꞌwe kꞌaslemal ri maj ukꞌisik. (aiōnios )
But ye, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying by the Holy Ghost,
preserve yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios )
22 Chitoqꞌobꞌisaj kiwach ri winaq ri kubꞌan kebꞌ kikꞌuꞌx.
And of some have compassion, distinguishing their case;
23 Chiꞌtoꞌ nikꞌaj chik rech man kebꞌe ta pa ri qꞌaqꞌ. Chel ikꞌuꞌx chike nikꞌaj chik, xuqujeꞌ chiwetzelaj ri atzꞌyaq ri uchꞌulujim ri winaq rukꞌ ri utyoꞌjal.
and others save with trembling, snatching them out of the fire; though hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Che ri xa jun sibꞌalaj kwinel ri kixchajinik rech man kixqaj taj pa mak xuqujeꞌ rech kixujacho man rukꞌ ta chꞌulujil cho ri ujuluwem, rukꞌ nimalaj kiꞌkotemal.
Now to him who is able to guard you from stumbling, and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with exultation,
25 Che ri xa jun Dios ri kꞌo retaꞌmabꞌal, ri qakolonel yaꞌtal wiꞌ juluwem, qꞌijilaꞌnem, kwinem, pa Jesucristo, ri Ajawxel rech nabꞌe kanoq, rech kamik xuqujeꞌ rech chibꞌe qꞌij saq. Jeriꞌ. (aiōn )
to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, might and dominion, both now and unto all eternity. Amen. (aiōn )
