Yihuudaa 1
1 Yihuudaa obboleessa Yaaqoob garbicha Yesuus Kiristoos irraa, Gara warra waamamanii Waaqa Abbaadhaan jaallataman kanneen Yesuus Kiristoosiin eegamaniitti:
Jude, a slave of Jesus Christ, and a brother of James. To those who are in God, the Father beloved, kept for Jesus Christ, and called.
2 Araarri, nagaanii fi jaalalli isiniif haa baayʼatu.
May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.
3 Yaa michoota, ani waaʼee fayyina nu walii wajjin qooddannu kanaa isiniif barreessuuf guddisee nan hawwan ture; garuu akka isin amantii yeroo tokko bara baraan qulqulloota Waaqaatti imaanaa kenname sanaaf jabaattanii loltaniif isiniif barreessee isin gorsuun barbaachisaa natti fakkaate.
Beloved, although I was making all haste to write to you in regard to our common salvation, I am compelled to write you an appeal to defend the faith once for all committed to the saints.
4 Namoonni bara dheeraan dura murtii kanaaf murteeffaman tokko tokko looʼanii gidduu keessan seenaniiruutii. Isaanis namoota Waaqaaf hin bulle, warra ayyaana Waaqa keenyaa gara halalummaatti geeddaran kanneen Gooftaa Ol aanaa tokkicha jechuunis Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoosin gananii dha.
For certain men have crept in stealthily - men predestined in ancient prophecies for this condemnation - impious ones! They pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness, and deny Jesus Christ, our sole Master and Lord.
5 Yoo isin duraanuu waan kana hunda beektan illee, ani akka Gooftaan yeroo tokko saba isaa Gibxii baasee ergasii immoo warra hin amanin balleesse isin yaadachiisuu nan barbaada.
I wish to remind you of what you already know right well, that although the Lord once saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he afterward destroyed those who did not believe;
6 Innis ergamoota sadarkaa taayitaa isaanii irra hin turin, kanneen lafa jireenya isaanii dhiisan sana foncaa bara baraatiin hidhee hamma murtii Guyyaa guddaa sanaatti dukkana keessa turseera. (aïdios g126)
while the angels who did not keep their first domain but left their proper abode, are held by him in blank darkness, in everlasting chains, in preparation for the judgment of the Great Day. (aïdios g126)
7 Sodoomii fi Gomoraan, magaalaawwan naannoo isaanii jiranis akkasuma halalummaa fi hawwii foonii kan haala uumamaatiin ala taʼetti dabarsanii of kennaniiru. Isaanis warra adaba ibidda bara baraatiin adabamaniif fakkeenya taʼaniiru. (aiōnios g166)
So also Sodom and Gomorrah and the near-by cities which in like manner glutted themselves in sensuality and unnatural vice, are exhibited as a warning of the eternal fire, in the punishment they undergo. (aiōnios g166)
8 Haaluma wal fakkaatuunis namoonni abjootan kunneen foon ofii isaanii xureessu; gooftummaa ni tuffatu; ulfina qabeeyyii illee ni arrabsu.
Yet in just the same way these dreamers also defile the flesh, while they set at naught dominion and scoff at dignities.
9 Garuu Miikaaʼel hangafni ergamoota Waaqaa iyyuu yeroo waaʼee reeffa Musee irratti diiyaabiloosiin walitti falmanitti, “Gooftaan si haa ifatu!” jedhe malee isa arrabsuudhaan itti muruuf ija hin jabaanne.
But Michael, the Archangel, when in contending with the devil, he was disputing about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce sentence for blasphemy, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."
10 Namoonni kunneen garuu waanuma hin hubanne arrabsu; waan isaan akkuma bineensota waa yaaduu hin dandeenyeetti miiraan hubatantu isaan balleessa.
Yet these men blaspheme about matters of which they know nothing, while they use such things as they do understand by instinct (like the animals who have no reason) for their own destruction.
11 Isaaniif wayyoo! Isaan karaa Qaayin irra deeman; faayidaa argachuuf jedhanii dogoggora Balaʼaam keessa of buusan; fincila Qooraahiitiinis ni barbadaaʼan.
Alas for them! They have walked in the path of Cain; for the sake of gain they have rushed headlong into Balaam’s error, and have perished in Korah’s rebellion.
12 Namoonni kunneen utuma xuraaʼoo taʼanii jiranuu qaanii tokko malee cidha jaalalaa isin wajjin nyaatu; isaan tiksoota ofuma isaanii qofa sooranii dha. Isaan akkuma duumessa bokkaa hin qabne kan bubbeen asii fi achi oofuu ti; akkuma muka yeroo itti ija naqachuu qabutti ija dhabee buqqifamee dachaa lama duʼee ti.
These are they who are stains upon your love-feasts; when they feast sumptuously without scruple, looking after none but themselves. They are clouds without water, driven along by the winds; trees of autumn, fruitless, doubly dead, torn up by the roots,
13 Isaan warra akka dambalii galaanaa hoomacha qaanii isaanii baasanii dha; akkuma urjiiwwan asii fi achi jooran kanneen dukkanni limixiin hamma bara baraatti isaanii kaaʼamee ti. (aiōn g165)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Henook inni Addaam irraa jalqabee torbaffaa ture sun akkana jedhee waaʼee namoota kanaa raajii dubbateera: “Kunoo, Gooftaan qulqulloota isaa kumaatama wajjin ni dhufa;
It was to these, too, that Enoch, the "seventh in descent from Adam," prophesied, saying, "Lo! the Lord is come with myriads of his saints,
15 innis nama hundatti muruuf, warra Waaqaaf hin bulle kanneen karaa Waaqni hin jaallanneen waan Waaqni hin jaallanne hojjetan hundaa fi dubbii hamaa cubbamoonni Waaqaaf hin bulle hundinuu isa irratti dubbatan hundatti isaan gaafachuuf ni dhufa.”
to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly deeds which in their ungodliness they have committed; and of all the hard things which they have spoken against Him, ungodly sinners that they are!"
16 Namoonni kunneen yeroo hunda ni guungumu; komiis ni qabaatu; hawwii isaanii isa hamaa duukaa buʼu; of jaju; faayidaa argachuuf jedhaniis nama saadu.
For these are murmurers, always complaining. They always go where their passions lead, and their mouth speaks great swelling words, while they pay court to men for the sake of the advantage they can get.
17 Yaa michoota, isin garuu waan ergamoonni Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos duraan dursanii himan sana yaadadhaa.
But as for you, dearly beloved, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
18 Isaanis, “Qoostonni hawwii fedhii Waaqaatiin ala taʼe duukaa buʼan bara dhumaa keessa ni dhufu” isiniin jedhan.
how they used to say to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will be led only by their godless passions."
19 Namoonni kunneen warra gargar baʼuu uuman, warra hawwii foonii duukaa buʼanii fi warra Hafuura Qulqulluu hin qabnee dha.
These are the men, sensual and unspiritual, who cause divisions.
20 Isin garuu yaa michoota, amantii keessan kan waan hunda irra qulqulluu taʼe sana irratti of ijaaraa; Hafuura Qulqulluudhaanis kadhadhaa.
But you, beloved, continually building yourselves up on your most holy faith, and ever praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 Araarri Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoos jireenya bara baraatti akka isin geessu eeggachaa jaalala Waaqaatiin of eegaa. (aiōnios g166)
must keep yourselves in the love of God, while waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, which ends in life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
22 Warra shakkii qabaniif garaa laafaa;
Pity some who are wavering, and save by dragging them out of the fire;
23 Warra kaan ibidda keessaa butaatii oolchaa; kaan immoo uffata hawwii fooniitiin xureeffame iyyuu balfaatii sodaadhaan isaan maaraa.
others pity, but with caution, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Isa gufachuu isin oolchuu dandaʼuu fi isa fuula ulfina isaa duratti hirʼina malee, gammachuu guddaadhaan isin dhiʼeessuu dandaʼu sanaaf,
Now unto Him who has power to guard you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of his glory, faultless and exultant,
25 Fayyisaa keenya Waaqa tokkichaaf ulfinni, surraan, humnii fi taayitaan karaa Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoosiin bara hundumaan dura, amma, bara baraanis haa taʼu! Ameen. (aiōn g165)
to the only God, our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be ascribed glory, majesty, might, and authority, as it was before time began, is now, and ever shall be to all the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
