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, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are called, loved by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
2 Nkumbo ne lumuno kayi ne lusuno lwesula bibe nenjamwe.
Mercy to you and peace and love be multiplied.
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.
Beloved, while I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all 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 there are certain people who crept in secretly, even those who were long ago written about for this condemnation: ungodly people, turning the grace of our God into sensuality, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 Lino ndayandanga kumwanushako nabimbi nambi mubishi kendi, kwambeti Lesa walapulusha mushobo wa Islayeli kufuma ku Injipito, mpwalashina bonse babula kumushoma.
Now I want to remind you, though you already know all these things, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.
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)
Angels who did not keep their first domain, but deserted their own dwelling place, he has kept in everlasting bonds under darkness for 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)
Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, having, in the same way as these, given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Nabo bantu aba balenshinga cimocimo, balakonkelenga maloto alepishinga mibili yabo, balakananga bwendeleshi bwa Lesa, balatukananga bilengwa byakwilu byalemekwa.
Yet in like manner these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and blaspheme the glories.
9 Nomba Mikayeli mukulene wa bangelo mpobalikulondola ne Satana pakulwanina mubili wa Mose, uliya kumunyanshapo, walamboweti, “Lesa akukanse!”
But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, "May the Lord rebuke you."
10 Nomba bantu aba bakute lisongwe ne pabintu mbyebateshi, balo ncobeshi ni mano acisemwa mbuli abanyama, ebintu bilabashininga.
But these speak evil of whatever things they do not know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they are destroyed in these things.
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 to them. For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in Korah's rebellion.
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 hidden rocky reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you, shepherds who without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, 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)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Enoki wamusemano wacisanu ne cibili kufumina kuli Adamu walalalukapo sha bantu aba mpwalambeti, “Bonani Lesa pamo ne bangelo batabelengeke lesanga
About these also Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, "Look, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,
15 kombolosha bantu bonse. Kubapa cisubulo pancito shabo shaipa nshebalensa, kayi ne maswi abo aipa ngobalikumwamba.”
to execute judgment on all, and to convict every person of all their works of ungodliness which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
16 Aba endibo beshikutungula, batalumbu bilenshinga banabo, beshikukonkelowa lunkumbwa lwaipa, beshikulitunta, beshikuyandowa kulyela masuku pamitwi ya banabo.
These are murmurers and complainers, walking after their lusts (and their mouth speaks proud things), showing respect of persons to gain advantage.
17 Nomba amwe anukani ncemwalambilwa nebatumwa ba Mwami wetu Yesu Klistu.
But you, beloved, remember 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.”
They said to you that "In the end time there will be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts."
19 Aba bantu ebakute kuleta kupansana, bakutekuyandowa byamucishi, mu myoyo yabo muliya Mushimu Uswepa sobwe.
These are they who cause divisions, and are sensual, not having the Spirit.
20 Nomba amwe nyumfwanani kwambeti buyumi bwenga pantangu kabuli bwashimpa pa lushomo lwaswepa. Kamupailanga mungofu ya Mushimu Uswepa.
But you, beloved, keep building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.
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, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Balesheni nkumbo abo bacitonshanya.
And be merciful on those who doubt,
23 Nomba nabambi mubapulushe pakubasompola mumulilo. Nabambi mubaleshe nkumbo mwabuyowa, nsombi mupelane ne byakufwala byabo byatundubila ne lunkumbwa lwa bwipishi.
and some save, snatching them out of the fire, and on some have mercy with fear; hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
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 keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,
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 Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
