Yuda 1
1 Njame Yuda musebenshi wa Yesu Klistu, ndemukwabo Jemusi. Ndalembelenga njamwe omwalakwiwa ne Lesa omwekala mu lusuno lwa Lesa Bata omwashinkililwa ne Yesu Klistu.
Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James: to them that are beloved in God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called.
2 Nkumbo ne lumuno kayi ne lusuno lwesula bibe nenjamwe.
Mercy unto you, and peace, and charity be fulfilled.
3 Mobanse bame, ndayandishishanga kumulembela kalata kwambeti ndimwambile shalupulusho lwetu twense. Nomba lino ndabono kwambeti caina kumulembela nekumusenga mwangofu kwambeti mulwane nkondo yakucingilisha lushomo Lesa ndwalapa bantu kankanda kamowa.
Dearly beloved, taking all care to write unto you concerning your common salvation, I was under a necessity to write unto you: to beseech you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.
4 Ndamulembelenga pakwinga bantu nabambi batanyumfwili Lesa bakute kwiyisha biyisho byabwepeshi balengili pakati penu mwakutabenshiba. Aba ebantu mbwalamba Lesa mu Mabala Aswepa mumisemano yakunyuma kwambeti nakabape cisubulo. Pakwinga bakute kupindamuna makani alambanga lusuno lwa Lesa kwambeti, babepeshelemo bensanga bufule. Ebakute kukana Yesu Klistu Mwami wetu.
For certain men are secretly entered in, (who were written of long ago unto this judgment, ) ungodly men, turning the grace of our Lord God into riotousness, and denying the only sovereign Ruler, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
5 Lino ndayandanga kumwanushako nabimbi nambi mubishi kendi, kwambeti Lesa walapulusha mushobo wa Islayeli kufuma ku Injipito, mpwalashina bonse babula kumushoma.
I will therefore admonish you, though ye once knew all things, that Jesus, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, did afterwards destroy them that believed not:
6 Kayi kamwanukani bangelo balabula kwikuta ne bwendeleshi bwabo bwelela, balashiya musena Lesa ngwalabapa. Neco Lesa wabasunga ncetani shitapu mu mushinshe mpaka busuba bwalombolosho. (aïdios g126)
And the angels who kept not their principality, but forsook their own habitation, he hath reserved under darkness in everlasting chains, unto the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 Kayi kamwanukani minshi ibili ya Sodomu ne Gomola yalikuba yabambana. Umo bantu mobali kwinsa bufule ne bintu nabimbi byasafwana bitayandiki ku muntu. Lesa walabapa cisubulo kwambeti cibe cilesho kuli bonse. (aiōnios g166)
As Sodom and Gomorrha, and the neighbouring cities, in like manner, having given themselves to fornication, and going after other flesh, were made an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Nabo bantu aba balenshinga cimocimo, balakonkelenga maloto alepishinga mibili yabo, balakananga bwendeleshi bwa Lesa, balatukananga bilengwa byakwilu byalemekwa.
In like manner these men also defile the flesh, and despise dominion, and blaspheme majesty.
9 Nomba Mikayeli mukulene wa bangelo mpobalikulondola ne Satana pakulwanina mubili wa Mose, uliya kumunyanshapo, walamboweti, “Lesa akukanse!”
When Michael the archangel, disputing with the devil, contended about the body of Moses, he durst not bring against him the judgment of railing speech, but said: The Lord command thee.
10 Nomba bantu aba bakute lisongwe ne pabintu mbyebateshi, balo ncobeshi ni mano acisemwa mbuli abanyama, ebintu bilabashininga.
But these men blaspheme whatever things they know not: and what things soever they naturally know, like dumb beasts, in these they are corrupted.
11 Bakute malele pakwinga balakonkelenga nshila njalamanta Kaini. Kayi mbuli ncalensa Balamu, balawili mubwipishi cebo cakuyandishisha mali. Balamupandukili Lesa mbuli calensa Kola, neco naboyo balonongeke
Woe unto them, for they have gone in the way of Cain: and after the error of Balaam they have for reward poured out themselves, and have perished in the contradiction of Core.
12 Aba ebalepishinga mibungano yenu yalusuno. Baliya nsoni balalinga pamo ne njamwe, balayandangowa byabo. Balyeti makumbi ilanyakangwa ne mpepo, makumbi abula mfula. Balyeti bitondo bitaseme bisepo pacindi cakendi, bitondo ibyo bantu mbyebalashukulu miyanda bilafwililili.
These are spots in their banquets, feasting together without fear, feeding themselves, clouds without water, which are carried about by winds, trees of the autumn, unfruitful, twice dead, plucked up by the roots,
13 Balyeti mankape apa lwenje, bakute kupulisha mapofu abintu byabo byasafwana. Balyeti nyenyenshi shilataiki nshila. Neco Lesa wabasungila mu mushinshe wanjobe bani utapu. (aiōn g165)
Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own confusion; wandering stars, to whom the storm of darkness is reserved for ever. (aiōn g165)
14 Enoki wamusemano wacisanu ne cibili kufumina kuli Adamu walalalukapo sha bantu aba mpwalambeti, “Bonani Lesa pamo ne bangelo batabelengeke lesanga
Now of these Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying: Behold, the Lord cometh with thousands of his saints,
15 kombolosha bantu bonse. Kubapa cisubulo pancito shabo shaipa nshebalensa, kayi ne maswi abo aipa ngobalikumwamba.”
To execute judgment upon all, and to reprove all the ungodly for all the works of their ungodliness, whereby they have done ungodly, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against God.
16 Aba endibo beshikutungula, batalumbu bilenshinga banabo, beshikukonkelowa lunkumbwa lwaipa, beshikulitunta, beshikuyandowa kulyela masuku pamitwi ya banabo.
These are murmurers, full of complaints, walking according to their own desires, and their mouth speaketh proud things, admiring persons for gain’s sake.
17 Nomba amwe anukani ncemwalambilwa nebatumwa ba Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu.
But you, my dearly beloved, be mindful of the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
18 Balamwambileti, “Mumasuba akumapwililisho, nikukabe bantu baminyansho, bantu beshikukonkela lunkumbwa lwabo.”
Who told you, that in the last time there should come mockers, walking according to their own desires in ungodlinesses.
19 Aba bantu ebakute kuleta kupansana, bakutekuyandowa byamucishi, mu myoyo yabo muliya Mushimu Uswepa sobwe.
These are they, who separate themselves, sensual men, having not the Spirit.
20 Nomba amwe nyumfwanani kwambeti buyumi bwenga pantangu kabuli bwashimpa pa lushomo lwaswepa. Kamupailanga mungofu ya Mushimu Uswepa.
But you, my beloved, building yourselves upon your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Ikalani mu lusuno lwa Lesa mpomulapembelelenga Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu uyo eshakamupe buyumi butapu munkumbo shakendi. (aiōnios g166)
Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, unto life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
22 Balesheni nkumbo abo bacitonshanya.
And some indeed reprove, being judged:
23 Nomba nabambi mubapulushe pakubasompola mumulilo. Nabambi mubaleshe nkumbo mwabuyowa, nsombi mupelane ne byakufwala byabo byatundubila ne lunkumbwa lwa bwipishi.
But others save, pulling them out of the fire. And on others have mercy, in fear, hating also the spotted garment which is carnal.
24 Bulemu bube kuli uyo wela kubula kumuleketi muwile mu bwipishi, uyo wela kumushikisha pamenso abulemu bwakendi kamuli mwabula kampenda kalikonse.
Now to him who is able to preserve you without sin, and to present you spotless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, in the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
25 Kuli Lesa mupulushi wetu kupitila muli Yesu Klistu Mwami wetu kube bulemu ne bukulene ne ngofu kayi ne bwendeleshi, kufumina cindi cakunyuma, pacino cindi kayi ne kucindi citapu! Ameni. (aiōn g165)
To the only God our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory and magnificence, empire and power, before all ages, and now, and for all ages of ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
