Siute 1
1 Ko au Siute, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, mo e tokoua ʻo Semisi, kiate kinautolu kuo fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ko e Tamai, pea kuo fakamoʻui ʻe Sisu Kalaisi, ko e uiuiʻi:
Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, to those who are called and sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
2 Ke tupulekina pe kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pe, mo e melino, mo e ʻofa.
Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
3 ʻE kāinga ʻofeina, ʻi heʻeku fai fakatoʻotoʻo ʻaupito ke tohi atu kiate kimoutolu ki he fakamoʻui lahi, naʻe totonu ke u tohi kiate kimoutolu, mo enginaki ke mou fekuki fakamātoato koeʻuhi ko e tui naʻe ʻatu ʻi muʻa ki he kāinga māʻoniʻoni.
Beloved, although I was quite eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.
4 He ʻoku ai ʻae kau tangata kuo nau fetolofi fakapōloto, ʻakinautolu naʻe tohi ʻi muʻa ki he malaʻia ni, ko e kau tangata taʻelotu, ʻonau liliu ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻOtua ko e faianga angahala, ʻo fakafisinga ʻi he ʻEiki pe taha ko e ʻOtua ko hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have crept in unnoticed. They are ungodly men who pervert the grace of our God, turning it into a license for sensuality. By doing so, they deny God, who is our only Master, and also the Lord Jesus Christ.
5 Ko ia ʻoku ou loto ke fakamanatuʻi ʻakimoutolu, ka naʻa mou ʻilo muʻa ʻae meʻa ni, koeʻuhi ʻi he hili hono fakamoʻui ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae kakai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea ne toki fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu naʻe ʻikai ke tui.
Now I want to remind you, although you already know this, that after the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, he subsequently destroyed those who did not believe.
6 Pea ko e kau ʻāngelo naʻe ʻikai ke tuʻumaʻu ʻi honau muʻaki ʻalunga, ka naʻa nau tukuange honau nofoʻanga, kuo ne tuku ke moʻua ʻakinautolu ki he ngaahi haʻi taʻengata ʻoe fakapoʻuli ʻo aʻu ki he fakamaau ʻoe ʻaho lahi. (aïdios g126)
And the angels who did not keep within their proper domain, but left their own dwelling, he has kept under darkness in everlasting chains for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 ʻO hangē foki ko Sotoma mo Komola, mo e ngaahi kolo naʻa nau vāofi mo fai tatau, ʻonau tuku ʻakinautolu ki he feʻauaki, mo e muimui ki he feholikoviʻaki, kuo fokotuʻu ko e fakaʻilonga, ʻonau moʻua ʻi he totongi ʻoe afi taʻengata. (aiōnios g166)
Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in fornication and went after strange flesh in a manner similar to those angels, serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 ʻOku pehē foki ʻakinautolu ni, ʻae kau misi [kovi], ʻoku nau ʻuliʻi ʻae sino, ʻo manukiʻi ʻae pule, mo lauʻikovi ʻae kau pule.
In the same way these ungodly men, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and revile glorious beings.
9 Ka ʻi he alea ʻa Maikeli ko e ʻāngelo lahi mo e tēvolo, naʻe fakakikihi ia ki he sino ʻo Mōsese, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne tali ʻaki ia ha lea manuki, ka naʻa ne pehē, “Ke lōmia koe ʻe he ʻEiki.”
But when Michael the archangel was contending with the devil and disputing about the body of Moses, he did not dare to bring a reviling judgment against him, but said, “May the Lord rebuke yoʋ!”
10 Ka ʻoku lea kovi ʻakinautolu ni ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻiloʻi: ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ʻoku nau ʻilo fakakakano pe fakataha mo e fanga manu taʻeloto, ko e ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku nau ʻuliʻi ai ʻakinautolu.
Yet these men slander whatever they do not understand, and they are corrupted by what they, like irrational beasts, instinctively comprehend.
11 ʻE malaʻia ʻakinautolu! He kuo nau ʻalu ʻi he hala ʻo Keini, ʻo tāfea atu ki he hē ʻa Pelami koeʻuhi ko e totongi, pea nau ʻauha ʻi he angatuʻu ʻa Kola.
Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, they rushed for reward to the error of Balaam, and they perished in the rebellion of Korah.
12 Ko e ngaahi ʻila ʻakinautolu ni ʻi hoʻomou ngaahi kātoanga ʻofa, ʻi heʻenau keinangaʻanga mo kimoutolu, ʻonau kai fekinaki mo taʻemanavahē: ko e ngaahi ʻao taʻeaihavai, ʻoku vilingia fano ʻe he ngaahi matangi; ko e ngaahi ʻakau fua mate, taʻefua, ʻo mate ʻangaua, kuo taʻaki fuʻu hake;
These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, feeding themselves as they feast among you without fear. They are clouds without water, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, pulled up by the roots.
13 Ko e ngaahi peau lili ʻoe tahi, ʻoku nau koā atu ʻenau fakamā; ko e ngaahi fetuʻu he fano pe, pea kuo tuku moʻonautolu ʻae ʻuliʻuli ʻoe fakapoʻuli taʻengata. (aiōn g165)
They are wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shameful deeds; wayward stars, for whom the thick gloom of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Pea naʻe kikite kiate kinautolu ni foki ʻe ʻInoke, ko hono toko fitu meia ʻAtaina, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku hāʻele mai ʻae ʻEiki mo e ngaahi toko mano ʻo ʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni.
Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied about these men, saying, “Behold, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones
15 Ke fai ʻae fakamaau ki he kakai kotoa pē, mo fakamoʻoni ki he kakai taʻelotu kotoa pē ʻa ʻenau ngaahi ngāue fakataʻelotu kotoa pē ʻaia kuo nau fai ʻi he anga fakataʻelotu, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa fakamamahi kotoa pē ʻaia kuo lea ʻaki ʻe he kau angahala taʻelotu kiate ia.”
to execute judgment against all and to convict all the ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds that they have done in an ungodly way, and to convict ungodly sinners of all the harsh words they have spoken against him.”
16 Ko e kau lāunga mo hanu ʻakinautolu ni, ʻoku nau angimui ki he ngaahi holi kovi ʻanautolu; pea ʻoku lea fakapuhopuha ʻa honau ngutu, ʻonau filifilimānako ki he kakai koeʻuhi ko e koloa.
These men are grumblers and complainers, walking according to their own lusts. They speak bombastic words with their mouths, admiring people for their own advantage.
17 Kae manatuʻi ʻekimoutolu, ko e ʻofeina, ki he ngaahi lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻi muʻa ʻe he kau ʻaposetolo ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi;
But you, beloved, must remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold,
18 He naʻa nau fakahā kiate kimoutolu, “ʻE ai ʻae kau manuki ʻi he kuonga ki mui, pea te nau angimui ki he ngaahi holi fakataʻelotu ʻanautolu.”
how they said to you, “In the end times there will be scoffers who walk according to their own ungodly lusts.”
19 Ko kinautolu ni ʻoku nau mavaheʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻoku fakakakano, ʻo taʻemaʻu ʻae Laumālie
These people cause divisions; they are worldly and do not have the Spirit.
20 Ka ko kimoutolu, ko e ʻofeina, ke langa ʻaki hake ʻakimoutolu ki hoʻomou tui fungani māʻoniʻoni, pea lotu ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni,
But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 ʻO tauhiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, mo ʻamanaki ki he ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pē ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ki he moʻui taʻengata. (aiōnios g166)
must keep yourselves in the love of God as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Pea ke manavaʻofa ki he niʻihi, ʻo fai kehekehe.
Have mercy on some, using discernment;
23 Pea ko e niʻihi, ke fakamoʻui ʻaki ʻae fakamanavahē, ʻo hamusi mei he afi; ka mou fehiʻa pe ki he kofu kuo ʻuliʻi ʻe he kakano.
and others save with fear by snatching them out of the fire, hating even the garment that is stained by the flesh.
24 Pea ko eni, ke ʻiate ia ʻoku faʻa fai ke taʻofi ʻakimoutolu ke ʻoua naʻa mou hinga, pea ke ʻatu ʻakimoutolu taʻehalaia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono nāunau mo e fiefia lahi ʻaupito,
Now to him who is able to keep them from falling and to make them stand unblemished in the presence of his glory with great joy,
