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, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the called beloved in God the Father, and kept in Jesus Christ.
2 Ke tupulekina pe kiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pe, mo e melino, mo e ʻofa.
Mercy to you, and peace, and divine love be multiplied.
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, making all haste to write to you concerning our common salvation, I had need to write to you, exhorting you to agonize for the faith which was once delivered unto 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 have crept in, who long ago were written down to this judgment, ungodly, transforming the grace of God into impurity, even denying Jesus Christ, our only Sovereign and Lord.
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.
But I wish you to remember, once having known all these things, that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, destroyed them that believed riot, the second time:
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 kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, has he kept in eternal chains unto darkness unto 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)
as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, in a manner like unto them committing fornication, and going after other flesh, present an example receiving the vengeance 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.
Likewise indeed these dreamers also pollute the flesh, and reject lordship, and blaspheme glories.
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 Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed over the body of Moses, did not dare to bring against him a judgment of blasphemy, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
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.
But these blaspheme so many things as they know not: and so many things as they understand naturally, like irrational animals, in these they are corrupted.
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 unto them! because they have gone off in the way of Cain, and in the delusion of Balaam they have been seduced by reward, and they perished in the gainsaying 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 are rocks in your love-feasts, feasting along with you without fear shepherdizing themselves, clouds without water, driven away by the winds; withered trees, without fruit, twice dead, plucked 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)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own disgraces; wandering stars, for which the blackness 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.
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied against these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with his myriads of saints,
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 of them for all the works of their ungodliness which they have impiously done, and for all their hard speeches which they have spoken against him, being ungodly sinners.
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 are querulous grumblers, going forth according to their own lusts; and their mouth speaking swelling words, admiring persons for the sake of gain.
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, remember the words which have hitherto been spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
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.”
that they said to you, At the last time there will be mockers, walking according to their own lusts after ungodly things.
19 Ko kinautolu ni ʻoku nau mavaheʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻoku fakakakano, ʻo taʻemaʻu ʻae Laumālie
These are they who are sidetracking [the people], intellectual, not having 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, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
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)
keep yourselves in the divine love of God, receiving the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Pea ke manavaʻofa ki he niʻihi, ʻo fai kehekehe.
And some of whom indeed convict, being judged:
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 some save, seizing them out of the fire; and some pity in their fear, you indeed hating the garment having been spotted by carnality.
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,
But to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to establish you blameless in the presence of his glory with rejoicing.
25 Ke ʻi he ʻOtua poto taha pe ko hotau Fakamoʻui, ʻae nāunau, mo e ongoongolelei mo e pule, mo e mālohi, ʻi heni mo taʻengata. ʻEmeni. (aiōn g165)
to God our only Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and power, before every age, both now, and unto all the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
