< Yuda 1 >
1 Yuda, n'tumwa ghwa Yesu Kristu, ni ndongomunu Yakobo, kwa bha, a bhabhamali kukutibhwa bhaganikibhwa mu K'yara Dadi, ni bhabhatunzibhu kwandbha j'ha Yesu Kiristu:
Jude, slave of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called, those who have been sanctified by God the Father and preserved through Jesus Christ:
2 rehema ni amani ni upendo fyongesekayi kwa muenga.
May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.
3 Bhalongo bhangu wakati niyele nifwanyeghe kila k'henu kubhayandikila muenga kuhusu bhwokovu bhwa y'hoto twebhoha ikanilondeka kubhayandikila kwa ndabha j'ha kubhashauri ili mushindanilayi kwa bhuaminifu imani ambayo jha yele yimali kukabidhibhwa mara yimonga tu kwa bhaamini.
Dear ones, while I was really intent on writing to you about the salvation we share, I had a compulsion to write exhorting you to contend earnestly for the Faith once for all committed to the saints.
4 Kwa ndabha bhanu fulani bhak'hij'hingisi mu siri kati j'ha muenga - bhanu ambabho bhasopibhu alama kwa ndabha j'ha kuhukumulibhwa - bhanu bhabhabeli kuj'ha bhataua ambabho bhibadili neema j'ha K'yara bhitu kwa ndabha j'ha uheji, ni kum'bela Bwana bhitu muene ni Bwana Yesu Kiristu.
Because certain men, who were marked out for this condemnation long ago, have sneaked in; they are godless, perverting the grace of our God into licentiousness and denying the only Sovereign God, even our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 Henu nilonda kubhakhombosya muenga ingawa kuyele wakati mwamanyili kinofu kuj'ha Bwana abhaokuwili bhanu kuh'oma nchi j'ha Misri, lakini baadaye kubhayangamisya bhala bhoha bhabhabeli kumwamini.
So I want to remind you, though you already know this, that the Lord delivered a people out of the land of Egypt yet later destroyed those who did not believe.
6 Ni malaika ambabho bhakailendi lepi enzi j'ha bhene lakini bhalekili makao gha bhene maalumu K'yara abhabhek'hili mu minyororo ghya milele mugati mu ngisi ndabha j'ha hukumu j'ha ligono lela libhaha. (aïdios )
And the angels who did not keep their proper domain but deserted their own dwelling He has kept bound in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios )
7 Kama yikayele ku Sodoma ni ku Gomora ni miji yayizungukibhu ambabho pia ikayiyikiyingisi yiene mu uasherati tamaa yayibeli kuj'ha ya muandi. Bhabhalasibhu kama mifuano ghya bhala ambabho bhiteseka mu hukumu j'ha muoto bhwa milele. (aiōnios )
So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns—who gave themselves up to fornication and went after a different kind of flesh in a manner similar to those angels—stand as an example, undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios )
8 Hata mebhwa kwa nj'hela y'helay'hela bhalota ndoto abha pia bhichafula mibhele ghya bhene, na bhibteela mamlaka na bhijobha udesi dhidi j'ha bhatukufu.
Likewise these dreamers in their turn both defile flesh and reject authority and slander celestial beings.
9 Lakini hata Mikaeli malaika mmbaha, wakati isindana ni ibilisi ni kulongela ni muene kwa ndabha j'ha m'mbele ghwa Musa, akajaribi lepi kuleta hukumu j'ha udesi dhidi j'ha muene, lakini badala j'ha muene khujobha, “Bwana akubesiayi!”
Yet even Michael the archangel, when taking issue with the devil—he was arguing about Moses' corpse—did not dare to pronounce a reviling judgment, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you!”
10 Lakini bhanu bha bhileta udesi j'ha kyokyokela kyabhabelili kukimanya. Na kyabhabelili kukik'heta- k'jela ambakyo bhanyama bhabhabeli kuya ni luhala yimanyikana kwa silika- agha ndigho ghaghaharibu.
But these speak abusively against whatever they do not understand, while whatever they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals—by these things they are ruined.
11 N'ndesi bhene! Kwa kuya bhagendili mu nj'hela j'ha Kaini ni kulikesya la Baalamu. Bhayangamuli mu uasi ghwa Kora.
Woe to them, because they have taken the way of Cain, have rushed into Balaam's error for profit, and have destroyed themselves in Korah's rebellion!
12 Abha ndo fidonda mu sherehe sya muenga sa lugano, bhisherekela bila soni, bhikilesya tu bhene. Ni mafundii ghaghaduli masi ghaghip'hendibhwa ni mp'hongo, ni mab'hehe ghaghapoluwilii ghabeli kuya ni matunda imalikuy'homa kabhele, yayimali kudupulibhwa mizizi
These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, joining the feast without fear, caring only for themselves; they are clouds without rain, carried along by winds; they are late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead (having been uprooted);
13 Ni manyengha gha munyanja ghaghayele ni njuweghu yilela soni kwa y'homu mwibhene, ndo matondo ghigendegenda ambagho utitubhwa ngisi utunzibhu kwandabha j'ha bhene milele. (aiōn )
they are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their own shameful acts; they are wandering stars, for whom the black of the darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn )
14 Enoko gha saba mu orodha j'ha Adamu atabiriri kulondekana ni bhene, “Langai! Bwana ahidili ni maelfu gha maelfu gha bhatakatifu bha muene,
Now even Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men saying: “Look, the Lord is coming with ten thousands of His holy ones
15 ili akhetyi lihengu panani pa kila munu, ni kubheka hatia bhoha bhabhabelili kun'kesya K'yara panani pa matendo gha bhene ghoha ghabhamalili kubhomba mu njela syasibelili kujha sya kitauwa, ni kwa malobhi ghoha gha ukali ambagho bhabhabelikujha bhatauwa bhaghajobhili dhidi jha muene.”
to execute judgment on everyone and to convict all the godless among them of all their godless deeds that they have godlessly perpetrated, also of all the harsh things they have spoken against Him—the godless sinners!”
16 Abha ndo bhala bhabhidada, bhabhikilombosya ambabho bhikhesya tama sya bhene sya bhuovu, bhikifuna muni, ambabho kwa faida jha bhene bhikofya bhamana.
These men are grumblers and complainers, living according to their own evil desires; they talk big, flattering people to gain advantage.
17 Lakini muenga, bhapenzi, mukhombokayi malobhi ambagho ghajobhibhu muandi ni mitume bha Bwana Yesu Kristu.
But you, dear ones, remember the words that were spoken before by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:
18 bhajobhili kwa muenga,” Mu wakati bhwa mwishu kubetakujha ni bhanu bhabhidhihaki ambabho bhikesya tamaa sya bhene ambabho syasibelili kujha sya kitauwa.”
how they told you that in the last time there will be scoffers who live according to their own godless desires.
19 Bhanu abha ndo bhatenganisi, bhitabhwalibhwa ni tamaa sya asili, na bhajhelepi ni Roho.
These are the ones who cause division; they are ‘soulish’, not having a spirit.
20 Lakini muenga, bhapenzi, kama kyamukijenga mu amani jha muenga takatifu nesu, ni kama kya mwisoka mu Roho Mtakatifu,
But you, dear ones, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 mukitunzayi mu bhupendo bhwa K'yara, na mulend'el'elayi rehema jha Bwana bhitu Yesu Kristu ambajho jhikabhapela uzima bhwa milele. (aiōnios )
keep yourselves in God's love, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ into eternal life. (aiōnios )
22 Mulasiajhi rehema kwa bhala bhabhajhele ni shaka.
Now be merciful to some, making a distinction;
23 Mubhaokolayi bhamana kwa kubhanyakula kuh'oma mu muoto kwa bhamana mulasiajhi huruma kwa kuhofela, mwidada hata liguanda lyalisopibhu lidoa ni mb'ele.
but others save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
24 Henu kwa muene jhaibhwesya kubhalenda musikikungufuli ni kubhasababisya mujhemayi palongolo pa utukufu bhwa muene, bila mawaa ni kujha ni furaha mbaha,
Now to Him who is able to keep them from stumbling and to present them before His glorious presence without fault and with exultation—
25 kwa muene K'yara pasima mwokozi kup'etela Yesu Kristu Bwana bhitu, bhutukufu bhujhelayi kwa muene, bhubhaha, bhuwesu ni ngofu kabla jha nyakati syoha, ni henu ni hata milele. Amina. (aiōn )
to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, power and authority, both now and throughout all the ages! Amen. (aiōn )
