Jude 1
1 Juda, ìránṣẹ́ Jesu Kristi àti arákùnrin Jakọbu, Sí àwọn tí a pè, olùfẹ́ nínú Ọlọ́run Baba, tí a pamọ́ fún Jesu Kristi:
Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, To those who are called, loved by God the Father, and kept in Jesus Christ:
2 Kí àánú, àlàáfíà àti ìfẹ́ kí ó máa jẹ́ tiyín ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀.
Mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
3 Ẹ̀yin ọ̀rẹ́ mi tòótọ́, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé èmí ní ìtara láti kọ̀wé sí i yín nípa ìgbàlà tí í ṣe ti gbogbo ènìyàn, n kò gbọdọ̀ má kọ̀wé sí yín, kí ń sì gbà yín ní ìyànjú láti máa jà fitafita fún ìgbàgbọ́, tí a ti fi lé àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ lọ́wọ́ ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan ṣoṣo.
Beloved, although I made every effort to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt it necessary to write and urge you to contend earnestly for the faith entrusted once for all to the saints.
4 Nítorí àwọn ènìyàn kan ń bẹ tí wọ́n ń yọ́ wọlé, àwọn ẹni tí a ti yàn láti ìgbà àtijọ́ sí ẹ̀bi yìí, àwọn aláìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run, tí ń yí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run wa padà sí wọ̀bìà, tí wọn sì ń sẹ́ Olúwa wa kan ṣoṣo náà, àní, Jesu Kristi Olúwa.
For certain men have crept in among you unnoticed—ungodly ones who were designated long ago for condemnation. They turn the grace of our God into a license for immorality, and they deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 Nítòótọ́, ẹ ti mọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí ní ẹ̀ẹ̀kan rí, mo fẹ́ rán an yín létí pé, lẹ́yìn tí Olúwa ti gba àwọn kan là láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, lẹ́yìn náà ni ó run àwọn tí kò gbàgbọ́.
Although you are fully aware of this, I want to remind you that after Jesus had delivered His people out of the land of Egypt, He destroyed those who did not believe.
6 Àti àwọn angẹli tí kò tọ́jú ipò ọlá wọn, ṣùgbọ́n tí wọn fi ipò wọn sílẹ̀, àwọn tí ó pamọ́ sínú ẹ̀wọ̀n àìnípẹ̀kun ní ìsàlẹ̀ òkùnkùn de ìdájọ́ ọjọ́ ńlá nì. (aïdios g126)
And the angels who did not stay within their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling—these He has kept in eternal chains under darkness, bound for judgment on that great day. (aïdios g126)
7 Àní bí Sodomu àti Gomorra, àti àwọn ìlú agbègbè wọn, ti fi ara wọn fún àgbèrè ṣíṣe, tí wọ́n sì ń tẹ̀lé ará àjèjì lẹ́yìn, àwọn ni ó fi lélẹ̀ bí àpẹẹrẹ, àwọn tí ó ń jìyà iná àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
In like manner, Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, who indulged in sexual immorality and pursued strange flesh, are on display as an example of those who sustain the punishment of eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 Bákan náà ni àwọn wọ̀nyí ń sọ ara wọn di èérí nínú àlá wọn, wọ́n ń gan ìjòyè, wọn sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ búburú sí àwọn ọlọ́lá.
Yet in the same way these dreamers defile their bodies, reject authority, and slander glorious beings.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n Mikaeli, olórí àwọn angẹli, nígbà tí ó ń bá Èṣù jiyàn nítorí òkú Mose, kò sọ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí i; ṣùgbọ́n ó wí pé, “Olúwa bá ọ wí.”
But even the archangel Michael, when he disputed with the devil over the body of Moses, did not presume to bring a slanderous charge against him, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”
10 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn wọ̀nyí n sọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí ohun gbogbo ti kò yé wọn: ṣùgbọ́n ohun gbogbo tí wọn mọ̀ nípa èrò ara ni, bí ẹranko tí kò ní ìyè, nípasẹ̀ nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni wọ́n di ẹni ìparun.
These men, however, slander what they do not understand, and like irrational animals, they will be destroyed by the things they do instinctively.
11 Ègbé ni fún wọn! Nítorí tí wọ́n ti rìn ní ọ̀nà Kaini, wọ́n sì fi ìwọra súré sínú ìṣìnà Balaamu nítorí ère, wọn ṣègbé nínú ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ Kora.
Woe to them! They have traveled the path of Cain; they have rushed headlong into the error of Balaam; they have perished in Korah’s rebellion.
12 Àwọn wọ̀nyí ní ó jẹ́ àbàwọ́n nínú àsè ìfẹ́ yín, nígbà tí wọ́n ń bá yín jẹ àsè, àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn ti ń bọ́ ara wọn láìbẹ̀rù. Wọ́n jẹ́ ìkùùkuu láìrọ òjò, tí a ń ti ọwọ́ afẹ́fẹ́ gbá kiri; àwọn igi aláìléso ní àkókò èso, wọ́n kú lẹ́ẹ̀méjì, a sì fà wọ́n tú tigbòǹgbò tigbòǹgbò.
These men are hidden reefs in your love feasts, shamelessly feasting with you but shepherding only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried along by the wind; fruitless trees in autumn, twice dead after being uprooted.
13 Wọ́n jẹ́ ìjì líle ti ń ru ní ojú omi Òkun, ti ń hó ìfófó ìtìjú wọn jáde; alárìnkiri ìràwọ̀, àwọn tí a pa òkùnkùn biribiri mọ́ dè láéláé. (aiōn g165)
They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 Àwọn wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú ni Enoku, ẹni keje láti ọ̀dọ̀ Adamu, sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa wọn pé, “Kíyèsi i, Olúwa ń bọ̀ pẹ̀lú ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún ní ọ̀nà ẹgbẹ̀rún àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ mímọ́,
Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied about them: “Behold, the Lord is coming with myriads of His holy ones
15 láti ṣe ìdájọ́ gbogbo ènìyàn, láti dá gbogbo àwọn aláìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run lẹ́bi ní ti gbogbo iṣẹ́ àìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run wọn, ti wọ́n ti fi àìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run ṣe, àti ní ti gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ líle tí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ aláìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run ti sọ sí i.”
to execute judgment on everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of every ungodly act of wickedness and every harsh word spoken against Him by ungodly sinners.”
16 Àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ní àwọn ti ń kùn, àwọn aláròyé, ti ń rìn nípa ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ ara wọn; wọn ń gbéraga nípa ara wọn, wọ́n sì ń ṣátá àwọn ènìyàn mìíràn fún èrè ara wọn.
These men are discontented grumblers, following after their own lusts; their mouths spew arrogance; they flatter others for their own advantage.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin olùfẹ́, ẹ rántí àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ tí a ti sọ ṣáájú láti ọwọ́ àwọn aposteli Olúwa wa Jesu Kristi.
But you, beloved, remember what was foretold by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ
18 Bí wọn ti wí fún yín pé, “Nígbà ìkẹyìn àwọn ẹlẹ́gàn yóò wà, tí wọn yóò máa rìn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ àìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run ti ara wọn.”
when they said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow after their own ungodly desires.”
19 Àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ni àwọn ẹni tí ń ya ara wọn sí ọ̀tọ̀, àwọn ẹni ti ara, tí wọn kò ni Ẹ̀mí.
These are the ones who cause divisions, who are worldly and devoid of the Spirit.
20 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin, olùfẹ́, ti ẹ ń gbé ara yín ró lórí ìgbàgbọ́ yín tí ó mọ́ jùlọ, ti ẹ ń gbàdúrà nínú Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́.
But you, beloved, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 Ẹ máa pa ara yín mọ́ nínú ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run, bí ẹ̀yin ti ń retí àánú Olúwa wa Jesu Kristi tí yóò mú yín dé ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
keep yourselves in the love of God as you await the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
22 Ẹ máa ṣàánú fún àwọn tí ń ṣe iyèméjì.
And indeed, have mercy on those who doubt;
23 Ẹ máa gba àwọn ẹlòmíràn là, nípa fífà wọ́n yọ kúrò nínú iná; kí ẹ sì máa ṣàánú pẹ̀lú ìbẹ̀rù kí ẹ sì kórìíra ẹ̀wù tí ara ti sọ di èérí.
save others by snatching them from the fire; and to still others show mercy tempered with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
24 Ǹjẹ́ mo fi yín lé ẹni tí o lè pa yín mọ́ kúrò nínú ìkọ̀sẹ̀, tí o sì lè mú yín wá síwájú ògo rẹ̀ láìlábùkù pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ ńlá lọ́wọ́—
Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you unblemished in His glorious presence, with great joy—
25 tí Ọlọ́run ọlọ́gbọ́n nìkan ṣoṣo, Olùgbàlà wa, ní ògo àti ọláńlá, ìjọba àti agbára, nípasẹ̀ Jesu Kristi Olúwa wa, kí gbogbo ayé tó wà, nísinsin yìí àti títí láéláé! Àmín. (aiōn g165)
to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority through Jesus Christ our Lord before all time, and now, and for all eternity. Amen. (aiōn g165)
