Yuda 1
1 Neni Yuda, ntumintumi gwa Yesu Kristu na mlongu gwa Yakobu. Nankuwalembera mwenga yamushemitwi na Mlungu Tati, na yamfiruwa na Mlungu Tati na yamulikala mumafiliru gakuwi na kulolerwa weri kwajili ya Yesu Kristu.
This letter comes from Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and James' brother. I am writing to those who are called and loved by God the Father, and who are kept safe by Jesus Christ:
2 Lusungu na ponga na ufiru viweri vivuwa kwa mwenga.
May God's mercy, peace, and love increase in your experience!
3 Waganja wangu, neni nweriti na matamata ga kuwalembera kuusu ulopoziya ulii yatuwutenda pamuhera, kumbiti mona iherepa kuwalembera na kuwaluwa muyiteteyi kwa gangamala njimiru Mlungu yakawapananiti wantu wakuwi mala yimu hera kwa shipindi shoseri.
My friends, I was already looking forward to writing to you about the salvation that we share. But now I need to write urgently to you and encourage you to vigorously defend the truth about God, given once and for all time to God's holy people.
4 Toziya kwana wantu wamu yawaliyingiziyiti kwa bada pakati penu, wantu weni utoza wawu ulembitwi Mumalembu Mananagala kwanjira makashu, womberi wamjimiriti ndiri Mlungu na kumupanana ligoya, wantu yawagalambula ujumbi wa manemu ga Mlungu gwetu, su wapati kutenda undiyandiya na kumlema Yesu Kristu, yakawera Mkolamlima na Mtuwa gwetu gweka yakuwi.
For some people have quietly crept in among you. They were written about and condemned a long time ago, for they are wicked people who pervert God's grace, turning it into a license to immorality, while also denying our Lord and master Jesus Christ.
5 Tembera muvimaniti kala nakamu vitwatira vyoseri avi, vinu nfira kuwaholuziya kuwera Mtuwa pakawalopoziyiti wantu wakuwi kulawa Misri, shakapanu kawagamiziyiti walii yawalemiti kujimira.
Even though you already know this, I want to remind you that though the Lord saved his people out of the land of Egypt, later he still destroyed those who disbelieved.
6 Na wantumintumi wa kumpindi wasinditi kugoloka weri mumpenu zyawu zyawapananitwi, kumbiti wagalekiti makawu gawu weni, Mlungu kawatatiriti muluwindu dunu kwa minyololu ya mashaka goseri su watozwi mulishaka lilii likulu. (aïdios g126)
Even those angels that were not content with their God-given positions but abandoned their rightful places—he has placed them in eternal chains of darkness until the great Day of Judgment. (aïdios g126)
7 Muliholi viraa Sodoma na Gomora na lushi zya mumbwega mwakuwi, wenikaya wakuwi watenditi uhumba gambira wantumintumi wa kumpindi ntambu yawatenditi uhumba na vitwatira vya kugalambula nshimba ntambu yakanyawiti Mlungu, wapananitwi azabu mumotu gwa mashaka goseri, su liweri Libeliziwu kwa wantu woseri. (aiōnios g166)
In just the same way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the towns nearby that pursued immorality and perverted sex are provided as an example of those that experience the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Ayi ndo ntambu yawawera wantu awa. Kulota kwawu kuwalonguziya kuzidodisiya nshimba zyawu weni, walema uwezu wa Mlungu na kuvihigilanga viwumbi vya kumpindi kwa Mlungu.
Likewise these dreamers pollute their bodies, disregard authority, and insult heavenly beings.
9 Kumbiti ata Mikaeli ntumintumi mkulu gwa kumpindi, katenditi ndiri hangu, pakasinganiti na Mkondola kuusu nshimba ya Musa, Mikaeli kajeriti ndiri kumtoza Mkondola kwa mayigilangu, kumbiti kalongiti, “Mtuwa kakukalipiri.”
Even the archangel Michael, when he was arguing with the devil over Moses' body, didn't dare to condemn him with a slanderous insult, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you.”
10 Kumbiti wantu awa wavigilanga vintu vyawavimana ndiri. Kwana vitwatira vyawavimana na wavitenda pota kuvihola, gambira wankanyama ntambu yawatenda, toziya wankanyama wahera mahala, na vitwatira avi vyankuwahalabisiya wantu weni.
But these people ridicule whatever they don't understand; and what they do understand they instinctively follow like unthinking animals—this is what destroys them.
11 Shondi kwawu! Womberi yawagufata mgenderanu gulaa gulii gwa Kaini. Toziya ya mpiya, womberi watugiriti mota mulikosa lya Balamu na watenditi msindu gambira Kola na hawagamili gambira yomberi ntambu yakagamiriti.
They're in terrible trouble! For they have followed Cain's way. Like Balaam and his delusion, they have abandoned themselves to the profit motive. Like Korah and his rebellion, they have destroyed themselves.
12 Awa ndo wantu yawatenda pamuhera na mwenga mushiboga shenu sha ufiru pota kuwona soni. Womberi wawera gambira matalawu ga hatali gagaweza kugwamiziya mtumbwi na waweriti gambira walolera yawaliliziya weni hera na waweriti gambira mawundu yagahera mashi yagalonguziwa kwa liyega na waweriti gambira mitera yahera mabwajubwaju mushipindi sha kubena, yayitupulitwi na kufuwa nakamu,
These people spoil your fellowship meals, for they are selfish shepherds that don't have the slightest sense of shame—they only take care of themselves. They're clouds blown along by the wind that bring no rain. They're bare trees without fruit—twice dead, pulled out by the roots.
13 wantu awa wawera gambira makupala makulu ga bahali, na matendu gawu ga soni galawa gambira ufulufulu. Womberi wawera gambira ntondu zyazyagamila, zyeni zitulwa mashaka goseri muluwindu dunu. (aiōn g165)
They're violent ocean waves, foaming in their own disgrace. They're false stars, doomed forever to utter darkness. (aiōn g165)
14 Na Henoki, muntu gwa shiyiwuku sha saba kwanjira Adamu, katungiti kala kuusu wantu awa pakalonga, “Guloli, Mtuwa kankwiza pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi wananagala wa kumpindi yaguweza ndiri kuwawalanga
Enoch, seven generations on from Adam, spoke prophetically about these people: “Look! The Lord is coming, together with thousands and thousands of his holy ones
15 su kumtoza kila muntu yakamjimiriti ndiri Mlungu na kumupanana ligoya na kuwazibu wantu woseri yawalemiti kumjimira Mlungu na kumupanana ligoya toziya ya matendu gawu goseri madoda gawatenditi pota na kumshera Mlungu, na toziya ya visoweru vyoseri vyavikalaziya vyeni wantu yawatenda vidoda vyawamtakuliriti.”
to judge everyone, to reveal all the wicked things people have done, and all the terrible things hostile sinners have said against him.”
16 Wantu awa ndo yawakukulika na yawalalamika na wafata matamata zyawu zidoda, walikoma shifuwa na kuwazyuma wantu wamonga toziya ya mota zyawu weni.
Such people are grumblers, always complaining. They follow their own evil desires, speaking boastfully about themselves, and flattering others to get what they want.
17 Kumbiti mwenga waganja wangu, muliholi galii gamgambiritwi pamberi na wantumintumi wa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu.
But you, my dear friends, please remember what you were told by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.
18 Wawagambiriti, “Mashaka ga upeleru hawalawili wantu yawamjimira ndiri Mlungu, wantu yawafata matamata zyawu zidoda, womberi hawawatenderi lidufiya.”
They explained to you that in the last times mockers would come, following their own wicked desires.
19 Wantu awa ndo yawajega mabagulanu pakati penu, wantu wa maholu ga shipasipanu, wantu yawahera Rohu gwa Mlungu.
They cause divisions; they are worldly people who don't have the Spirit.
20 Kumbiti mwenga, waganja wangu, mulinyawi maweni gweka munjimiru yenu yayiwera nanagala nentu na muluwi Mlungu kwa makakala ga Rohu Mnanagala.
But you, my friends, are to build yourselves up through your trust in God. Pray in the Holy Spirit,
21 Muliloleri weri muufiru wa Mlungu, pamuluhepa lusungu lwa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu, su kawajegi muwukomu wa mashaka goseri. (aiōnios g166)
keep yourselves safe in God's love, and wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ who brings eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Muweri na lusungu kwa wantu woseri yawawera na lyoga,
Show kindness to those who doubt.
23 muwalopoziyi wamonga kwa kuwanyasula kulawa mumotu gwa utoza, kumbiti kwa wamonga muwawoneri lusungu pamuwera na lyoga, pamuzikalalira ata nguwu zawu zyazidodisiwitwi na madowa ga matamata zawu zidoda.
Save those you can by snatching them out of the fire. Show mercy—but with great care, hating even the “clothing” that is contaminated by sinful human nature.
24 Su yomberi kaweza kuwalolera weri su namguwa na kuwajega mwenga pota likosa mpaka kulongolu kwa ukwisa wakuwi na kwa nemeleru,
Now to him who can keep you from falling, and who can bring you into his glorious presence without fault, and with great joy,
25 kwa Mlungu gweka yakuwi na Mlopoziya gwetu, uweri ukwisa na ukulu na makakala na uwezu na ukolamlima kwa njira ya Kristu Yesu Mtuwa gwetu, kwanjira makashu pamberi pa kuwumbwa kwa pasipanu na vinu na ata mashaka goseri. Yina haa. (aiōn g165)
to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority, before all time, now, and forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
