JUDE a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are sanctified in God the Father, and preserved by Jesus Christ, the called:
2 kr̥pā śāntiḥ prēma ca bāhulyarūpēṇa yuṣmāsvadhitiṣṭhatu|
mercy unto you, and peace and love be multiplied.
3 hē priyāḥ, sādhāraṇaparitrāṇamadhi yuṣmān prati lēkhituṁ mama bahuyatnē jātē pūrvvakālē pavitralōkēṣu samarpitō yō dharmmastadarthaṁ yūyaṁ prāṇavyayēnāpi sacēṣṭā bhavatēti vinayārthaṁ yuṣmān prati patralēkhanamāvaśyakam amanyē|
Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you concerning the common salvation, I held it necessary to write unto you, exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered unto the saints.
4 yasmād ētadrūpadaṇḍaprāptayē pūrvvaṁ likhitāḥ kēcijjanā asmān upasr̥ptavantaḥ, tē 'dhārmmikalōkā asmākam īśvarasyānugrahaṁ dhvajīkr̥tya lampaṭatām ācaranti, advitīyō 'dhipati ryō 'smākaṁ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭastaṁ nāṅgīkurvvanti|
For certain men have craftily introduced themselves, who were from of old proscribed for this condemnation, ungodly men, changing the grace of God into impurity, and denying our only sovereign God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 tasmād yūyaṁ purā yad avagatāstat puna ryuṣmān smārayitum icchāmi, phalataḥ prabhurēkakr̥tvaḥ svaprajā misaradēśād udadhāra yat tataḥ param aviśvāsinō vyanāśayat|
But I would remind you, though ye once knew this, that the Lord, though he delivered the people out of the land of Egypt, afterwards destroyed those who believed not.
6 yē ca svargadūtāḥ svīyakartr̥tvapadē na sthitvā svavāsasthānaṁ parityaktavantastān sa mahādinasya vicārārtham andhakāramayē 'dhaḥsthānē sadāsthāyibhi rbandhanairabadhnāt| (aïdios g126)
And the angels who preserved not their own primitive state, but deserted their proper abode, hath he reserved in everlasting chains under darkness, unto the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 aparaṁ sidōmam amōrā tannikaṭasthanagarāṇi caitēṣāṁ nivāsinastatsamarūpaṁ vyabhicāraṁ kr̥tavantō viṣamamaithunasya cēṣṭayā vipathaṁ gatavantaśca tasmāt tānyapi dr̥ṣṭāntasvarūpāṇi bhūtvā sadātanavahninā daṇḍaṁ bhuñjatē| (aiōnios g166)
As Sodom and Gomorrha and the surrounding cities, in like manner with them abandoned to whoredom, and going after other flesh, are set forth an example, suffering the judicial punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 tathaivēmē svapnācāriṇō'pi svaśarīrāṇi kalaṅkayanti rājādhīnatāṁ na svīkurvvantyuccapadasthān nindanti ca|
In like manner also do these men, even when they dream, defile indeed the flesh, despise sovereignty, and revile dignities.
9 kintu pradhānadivyadūtō mīkhāyēlō yadā mūsasō dēhē śayatānēna vivadamānaḥ samabhāṣata tadā tisman nindārūpaṁ daṇḍaṁ samarpayituṁ sāhasaṁ na kr̥tvākathayat prabhustvāṁ bhartsayatāṁ|
Though Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil, he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not to produce a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
10 kintvimē yanna budhyantē tannindanti yacca nirbbōdhapaśava ivēndriyairavagacchanti tēna naśyanti|
But these men speak evil even of the things of which they have no knowledge: but such things as they know naturally, as the brute beasts, in these they corrupt themselves.
11 tān dhik, tē kābilō mārgē caranti pāritōṣikasyāśātō biliyamō bhrāntimanudhāvanti kōrahasya durmmukhatvēna vinaśyanti ca|
Wo unto them! for they have walked in the way of Cain, and have eagerly run in Balaam’s erroneous path of hire, and have perished in opposition, like Corah.
12 yuṣmākaṁ prēmabhōjyēṣu tē vighnajanakā bhavanti, ātmambharayaśca bhūtvā nirlajjayā yuṣmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ bhuñjatē| tē vāyubhiścālitā nistōyamēghā hēmantakālikā niṣphalā dvi rmr̥tā unmūlitā vr̥kṣāḥ,
These are in your feasts of love, as sunken rocks; though joining in your banquet, they feed themselves fearlessly; clouds without water carried about by the winds; trees untimely withering, fruitless, twice dead, rooted up;
13 svakīyalajjāphēṇōdvamakāḥ pracaṇḍāḥ sāmudrataraṅgāḥ sadākālaṁ yāvat ghōratimirabhāgīni bhramaṇakārīṇi nakṣatrāṇi ca bhavanti| (aiōn g165)
raging billows of the sea foaming out their own infamies; stars wandering from their courses, for whom the blackness of darkness for ever is reserved. (aiōn g165)
14 ādamataḥ saptamaḥ puruṣō yō hanōkaḥ sa tānuddiśya bhaviṣyadvākyamidaṁ kathitavān, yathā, paśya svakīyapuṇyānām ayutai rvēṣṭitaḥ prabhuḥ|
Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied also of these men, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with myriads of his saints,
15 sarvvān prati vicārājñāsādhanāyāgamiṣyati| tadā cādhārmmikāḥ sarvvē jātā yairaparādhinaḥ| vidharmmakarmmaṇāṁ tēṣāṁ sarvvēṣāmēva kāraṇāt| tathā tadvaiparītyēnāpyadharmmācāripāpināṁ| uktakaṭhōravākyānāṁ sarvvēṣāmapi kāraṇāt| paramēśēna dōṣitvaṁ tēṣāṁ prakāśayiṣyatē||
to execute judgment against all men, and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness which they have impiously committed, and of all the bitter words which impious offenders have spoken against him.
16 tē vākkalahakāriṇaḥ svabhāgyanindakāḥ svēcchācāriṇō darpavādimukhaviśiṣṭā lābhārthaṁ manuṣyastāvakāśca santi|
These men are murmurers, complainers at their lot in life, walking after their own corrupt passions; and their mouth utters hyperbolically pompous expressions, pretending high personal admiration, in order to make their advantage.
17 kintu hē priyatamāḥ, asmākaṁ prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya prēritai ryad vākyaṁ pūrvvaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kathitaṁ tat smarata,
But ye, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
18 phalataḥ śēṣasamayē svēcchātō 'dharmmācāriṇō nindakā upasthāsyantīti|
how they told you that in the last time there will be scoffers, walking after their own ungodly passions.
19 ētē lōkāḥ svān pr̥thak kurvvantaḥ sāṁsārikā ātmahīnāśca santi|
These are the men who separate themselves, sensual, destitute of the Spirit.
20 kintu hē priyatamāḥ, yūyaṁ svēṣām atipavitraviśvāsē nicīyamānāḥ pavitrēṇātmanā prārthanāṁ kurvvanta
But ye, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying by the Holy Ghost,
21 īśvarasya prēmnā svān rakṣata, anantajīvanāya cāsmākaṁ prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭasya kr̥pāṁ pratīkṣadhvaṁ| (aiōnios g166)
preserve yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 aparaṁ yūyaṁ vivicya kāṁścid anukampadhvaṁ
And of some have compassion, distinguishing their case;
23 kāṁścid agnita uddhr̥tya bhayaṁ pradarśya rakṣata, śārīrikabhāvēna kalaṅkitaṁ vastramapi r̥tīyadhvaṁ|
and others save with trembling, snatching them out of the fire; though hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 aparañca yuṣmān skhalanād rakṣitum ullāsēna svīyatējasaḥ sākṣāt nirddōṣān sthāpayituñca samarthō
Now to him who is able to guard you from stumbling, and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with exultation,
