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.
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 Lusungu na ponga na ufiru viweri vivuwa kwa mwenga.
May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.
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.
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 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.
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 Tembera muvimaniti kala nakamu vitwatira vyoseri avi, vinu nfira kuwaholuziya kuwera Mtuwa pakawalopoziyiti wantu wakuwi kulawa Misri, shakapanu kawagamiziyiti walii yawalemiti kujimira.
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 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)
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 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)
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 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 in their turn both defile flesh and reject authority and slander celestial 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.”
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 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 speak abusively against whatever they do not understand, while whatever they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals—by these things they are ruined.
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.
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 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 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 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 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 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
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 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 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 Wantu awa ndo yawakukulika na yawalalamika na wafata matamata zyawu zidoda, walikoma shifuwa na kuwazyuma wantu wamonga toziya ya mota zyawu weni.
These men are grumblers and complainers, living according to their own evil desires; they talk big, flattering people to gain advantage.
17 Kumbiti mwenga waganja wangu, muliholi galii gamgambiritwi pamberi na wantumintumi wa Mtuwa gwetu Yesu Kristu.
But you, dear ones, remember the words that were spoken before 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.”
how they told you that in the last time there will be scoffers who live according to their own godless desires.
19 Wantu awa ndo yawajega mabagulanu pakati penu, wantu wa maholu ga shipasipanu, wantu yawahera Rohu gwa Mlungu.
These are the ones who cause division; they are ‘soulish’, not having a spirit.
20 Kumbiti mwenga, waganja wangu, mulinyawi maweni gweka munjimiru yenu yayiwera nanagala nentu na muluwi Mlungu kwa makakala ga Rohu Mnanagala.
But you, dear ones, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying 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 in God's love, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ into eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Muweri na lusungu kwa wantu woseri yawawera na lyoga,
Now be merciful to some, making a distinction;
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.
but others save with fear, snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
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 is able to keep them from stumbling and to present them before His glorious presence without fault and with exultation—
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 God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, power and authority, both now and throughout all the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
