Joda 1
1 Joda, mpanompon’ i Jesosy Kristy sady rahalahin’ i Jakoba, mamangy izay olona voantso, malala ao amin’ Andriamanitra Ray sy voatahiry ho an’ i Jesosy Kristy;
Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are called and sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
2 hampitomboina ho anareo anie ny famindram-po sy ny fiadanana ary ny fitiavana.
Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
3 Ry malala, raha manao izay zotom-po rehetra hanoratra aminareo aho hilaza ny amin’ ny famonjena iombonantsika, dia nisy nahatery ahy hanoratra aminareo, hananatra mba hiezahanareo mafy hiaro ny finoana izay efa voatolotra indray mandeha monja ho an’ ny olona masìna.
Beloved, although I was quite eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.
4 Fa misy olona sasany efa niditra misokosoko, izay voasoratra fahiny ho amin’ izany fahamelohana izany, dia olona ratsy fanahy izay mamadika ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitsika ho fijejojejoana sady nandà ny Andrian-tokana, dia Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika.
For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have crept in unnoticed. They are ungodly men who pervert the grace of our God, turning it into a license for sensuality. By doing so, they deny God, who is our only Master, and also the Lord Jesus Christ.
5 Ary ta-hampahatsiaro anareo aho, na dia efa fantatrareo rahateo aza ny zavatra rehetra, fa rehefa novonjen’ ny Tompo ho afaka tany Egypta ny olona, dia naringany ihany tao aorian’ izany izay tsy nino.
Now I want to remind you, although you already know this, that after the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he subsequently destroyed those who did not believe.
6 Ary ny anjely izay tsy nitana ny anjara-fanapahany, fa nandao ny fonenany, dia voahazony amin’ ny fatorana mandrakizay ao amin’ ny maizina ho amin’ ny andro fitsarana lehibe. (aïdios g126)
And the angels who did not keep within their proper domain, but left their own dwelling, he has kept under darkness in everlasting chains for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 Ary toy izany koa, Sodoma sy Gomora mbamin’ ny tanàna nanodidina azy, izay nijangajanga tahaka azy koa ka lasa nanaraka nofo hafa, dia aseho ho fananarana amin’ ny iaretany fijaliana amin’ ny afo maharitra mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in fornication and went after strange flesh in a manner similar to those angels, serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Kanefa toy izany koa, ireo dia manonofy ka mandoto ny nofo sady mandà ny manana fahalehibiazana ary miteny ratsy ny manana voninahitra.
In the same way these ungodly men, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and revile glorious beings.
9 Fa Mikaela arikanjely aza, raha niady tamin’ ny devoly ka nifanditra ny amin’ ny fatin’ i Mosesy, dia tsy sahy niteny ratsy hahameloka azy, fa hoy izy: “Hananatra anao anie Jehovah”.
But when Michael the archangel was contending with the devil and disputing about the body of Moses, he did not dare to bring a reviling judgment against him, but said, “May the Lord rebuke yoʋ!”
10 Fa ireo kosa dia miteny ratsy izay zavatra rehetra tsy fantany akory; ary izay zavatra fantany fotsiny, tahaka ny fahalalan’ ny biby tsy manan-tsaina kosa, no animbany ny tenany.
Yet these men slander whatever they do not understand, and they are corrupted by what they, like irrational beasts, instinctively comprehend.
11 Hahita loza izy! fa efa nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ i Kama, sady efa nimaona fatratra hanaraka ny fahadisoan’ i Balama hahazoany tamby, ary efa ringana tamin’ ny fiodinan’ i Kora izy.
Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, they rushed for reward to the error of Balaam, and they perished in the rebellion of Korah.
12 Ireo no harambato voasaron-drano eo amin’ ny fanasam-pifankatiavanareo, raha miara-mihinana aminareo izy, dia mpiandry mamahan-tena, nefa tsy matahotra; rahona tsy misy rano, entin’ ny rivotra, ireo; hazo fararano, nefa tsy misy voany, indroa maty, voafongotra;
These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, feeding themselves as they feast among you without fear. They are clouds without water, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, pulled up by the roots.
13 onjan-dranomasina mitopatopa mamorivory ny fahamenarany; kintana mifindrafindra, ka voatahiry ho azy mandrakizay ny fahamaintisan’ ny maizina. (aiōn g165)
They are wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shameful deeds; wayward stars, for whom the thick gloom of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Ary Enoka koa, ilay fahafito nandimby an’ i Adama, dia efa naminany ny amin’ ireny olona ireny ka nanao hoe: “Indro, tonga Jehovah mbamin’ ny masiny tsy omby alinalina
Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied about these men, saying, “Behold, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones
15 hitsara ny olona rehetra sy hampiaiky ny olona ratsy fanahy rehetra ny asan’ ny haratsiam-panahy rehetra, izay nataony tamin’ ny haratsiam-panahiny sy ny teny sarotra rehetra izay nitenenan’ ny mpanota ratsy fanahy hanohitra Azy.”
to execute judgment against all and to convict all the ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds that they have done in an ungodly way, and to convict ungodly sinners of all the harsh words they have spoken against him.”
16 Ireo dia mpimonomonona sy mpimoimoy, mandeha araka ny filany (ary ny vavany manao teny miavonavona loatra) ka mandoka olona mba hahazoany zavatra.
These men are grumblers and complainers, walking according to their own lusts. They speak bombastic words with their mouths, admiring people for their own advantage.
17 Fa tsarovinareo, ry malala, ny teny voalazan’ ny Apostolin’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika fahiny;
But you, beloved, must remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold,
18 fa efa nilaza taminareo hoe izy: Amin’ ny andro farany dia hisy mpaniratsira, mandeha araka ny filan’ ny haratsiam-panahiny.
how they said to you, “In the end times there will be scoffers who walk according to their own ungodly lusts.”
19 Ireo no mahatonga fisarahana, dia olona araka ny nofo ihany, fa tsy mba manana ny Fanahy.
These people cause divisions; they are worldly and do not have the Spirit.
20 Fa ianareo kosa, ry malala, dia ataovy izay handrosoanareo amin’ ny finoanareo masìna indrindra, ka mivavaha ao amin’ ny Fanahy Masìna;
But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 ary tehirizo ny tenanareo ao amin’ ny fitiavan’ Andriamanitra, miandry ny famindram-pon’ i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika ho fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
must keep yourselves in the love of God as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Ary amindrao fo ny sasany izay miahanahana;
Have mercy on some, using discernment;
23 ary ny sasany kosa sariho avy amin’ ny afo no famonjy azy; ary ny sasany indray amindrao fo amin-tahotra, ka mankahalà na dia ny akanjo voapentimpentin’ ny nofo aza.
and others save with fear by snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment that is stained by the flesh.
24 Ary ho an’ izay maharo anareo mba tsy ho tafintohina, ary hametraka anareo tsy hanan-tsiny eo anoloan’ ny voninahiny amin’ ny firavoravoana,
Now to him who is able to keep them from falling and to make them stand unblemished in the presence of his glory with great joy,
25 ho an’ Andriamanitra tokana, Mpamonjy antsika, amin’ ny alalan i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika anie, ny voninahitra sy ny fahalehibiazana, ny fanjakana sy ny fahefana hatramin’ ny taloha indrindra sy ankehitriny ary mandrakizay. Amena. (aiōn g165)
to the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, power and authority, both now and forevermore. Amen. (aiōn g165)
