Yahuda 1
1 Yahuda kucin Yesu Kristi nin gwana Yakubu udu ale na iyicila linwana nanya Kutelle ucif nin ciyu Yesu Kreisti.
[I am] Jude. I [serve] Jesus Christ [like] a voluntary slave [MET]. I am a [younger] brother of James, [the leader of all the congregations. I am writing] to you whom [God] has chosen [to belong to him. You are] loved by God [our] Father and protected by Jesus Christ (OR, whom [God] has protected [to present] to Jesus Christ).
2 Na ayi akunekune udu kitimine nin sheu nibinai nin suu tigbardan
[I pray that] you will continue to [experience] very much [God acting] mercifully toward you, [causing you to have inner] peace, and loving [you].
3 Linwana in wadin shuu liti kang inyerti minu mbelen nlirunse nla, imile na nyertin minu in zazin minu ikpiyin ushu natin nyinu sa uyenu ule na iwa nakpa anit alau.
You whom I love, I (was very eager/very much wanted) to write to you about that which we all (share/have in common), which is how ([God/Jesus Christ]) [has] saved [us]. But now I realize that it is necessary [for me] to write to you in order to exhort you to defend the [truth about Christ] that we believe. [Jesus and his apostles] gave that truth once and for all to us who belong to God, [and we must not let it be changed] {[anyone revise/change it]}.
4 Bara naamong anit wadak likire ale na uchankuulobmine iyertine uwoeru anan sali fiu Kutelle ale na ina saka alheri Kutelle bit udu nuzu nanm nawani ahhe, nin nale na ita amusu nchikilari nin nan bunbite Yesu Kristi.
Some people falsely [teach that because] God kindly does for us what we do not deserve, it (does not matter/is all right) if we continue to sin. [Those people show by the way that they conduct their lives] that they do not want to admit/accept that Jesus Christ [is] our only Master and Lord. [It was written] long ago {[Someone] long ago wrote} that [God] would condemn (such ungodly people/people like that whose lives are displeasing to him). But some [of those] people have entered [MET] [like crawling snakes] into your congregations [and oppose the truth about Christ, so you must resist/oppose them].
5 Nene ndin wuru inlizin minu kodashike iyiru vat niming au cikilari wa nutun anit nanya unuzu myin Mmasar bara nani amolu ale na iyina ba.
Although you previously knew all these things, [there are certain things about] which I desire to remind you. [Do not forget that although] the Lord rescued [his people] from Egypt, he later destroyed most of those same people, ones who did not believe [in him].
6 Nin nnono kadura Kutelle ale na iwa cin katwa mine, i suna kiti lisosin mine kicine Kutelle na ce nani nanya nisarka nsirtin sa ligan udu udiya lirulole. (aïdios g126)
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
7 I masin nafo Usodom nin Gomora nin nigbiri naa na niea di nkiline, ale na iwa libaw lirume na awa ni atimine ni mon inanzang ndurtu kuna nizi kuhem. I wa suu anan gbaduzu na iwa neu un nnla unsa ligang. (aiōnios g166)
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
8 Nin nani libau lirume alele nanza nidowo mine nanya namoro, inarsi anan natet tigo, nani ibele inun inanzan kusari nanan natt udia.
Similarly, these [ungodly people in your midst] also defile their own bodies [by living immorally], because [they claim/say that God revealed] in visions [that they should act that way]. They refuse to [allow] anyone to have authority over them, and they (revile/speak evil about) [God’s] glorious/wonderful [angels].
9 Bara ame Makailu unan kadura Kutelle udiya na awadi ugon nsirti mayardan kitene liben Musa, na awa yinin ada ni mabucubucu sa ti gbulan tizogo ba inworonani aworo, ''Na ucife kpada fi.''
When (the devil/Satan) argued with the chief angel, Michael, about [who would take away] the body of [the prophet] Moses [to bury it], Michael did not [do as these teachers of false doctrine do. Even though Michael has much more authority than they do], he did not disrespectfully (revile/say evil things to) Satan and accuse/condemn him. Instead, he [only] said, “[I desire that] the Lord [God] will rebuke you!”
10 Bara nani anit alena vat zoguzo imonle na iyino ba vat ni lemong na iyino makeke Kutelle nafo makeke insali nibinai nile imuwne inanza mminu.
But the [ones in your midst] who teach false doctrine (revile/speak evil against) the [spiritual] beings that they do not understand. They also [do the evil things that they desire], things that they know about (naturally/without needing to think), things that they just do without considering [the consequences/results], like animals. So they destroy themselves. [But they will also be punished by God] {[God will also] punish them}.
11 Kash mine! bara na ina cina nanya libau kainu, inanin pira ndina ntanu Balam nsu nikurfun, inani diku zemzamlibau Kora unan mayardan.
[God will do] terrible things to those who teach false doctrine! They conduct their lives [wickedly] like Cain, [who murdered his brother because he was] ([jealous/angry because God accepted his brother’s sacrifice and did not accept his]). These false teachers (devote themselves to [MET] [doing] wrong things [like] Balaam, who [tried to induce God’s people to sin in order to get the money that was offered to him]. They will perish like Korah, who rebelled [against the authority that God gave to Moses].
12 Alelere ale na i yeshin nagilitin nsufe na ina lii ninfi, sancin idin pillu ma atiminere mung iso a wut sa wuru ale na ufunu asu uyira aca akune sa kumat, ukul tiba, tijiye martiza.
Those teachers of false doctrine are [as dangerous to you as] [MET] (hidden rocks on a reef/rocks underneath the surface of the ocean) [are to a boat]. When you gather together [to eat the meals that] help you believers to love each other more and have a closer relationship with each other, they [join you and] carouse shamelessly, caring [only] for themselves [and not for others. Because they do not do anything to help others] [MET], they are [as useless as] clouds that are blown along by the wind {that the wind blows along} but that do not [produce/give] any rain. [They are as disappointing as] [MET] trees that do not produce fruit in the autumn [as we expect them to]. They are not only [spiritually] [MET] dead themselves, [but they are] not [able to cause others to be] alive [spiritually, just like] [MET] trees that have been {that [someone] has} uprooted and [as a result] are unable to produce any fruit.
13 Ufunu nanya kurawa, anutuzuno kupunjetnceen mine, iyinin galu bara inunye usiriu nanya insirti na na yashe nani se saligan. (aiōn g165)
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
14 Nin bara anit alele nan Enok unan zur unuzu Adamu iwa beling aworo, ' Yene! Ucif bit nda nin namiu m likure nanit alau,
Enoch, the sixth [person in the line of people who descended] from Adam, prophesied this about those [teachers of false doctrine]: “Listen carefully to this: The Lord will certainly come with a countless number of his holy [angels] in order
15 inin suu ma wucuwucu udu kin kogha, anin tecu anan sali ncin dert nin nitwa ninanzan mine nanya na isu nanya nibinai ni nanzan nin nimun ididya ile na ann kulapi na malu belinghe.
to judge everyone, and to punish all wicked and (ungodly people/people whose lives are displeasing to God) for all the (ungodly things/things that displease God) that they did in (an ungodly way/a way that displeases God), and for all the harsh things that ungodly sinful people have spoken against him.”
16 Alelere anan tibula na idin su mun ile na nibinai mere taa usuwe, anan foo figiri ruu namong inan se ulin bun.
Those [teachers] of [false doctrine] grumble [about] the [things that God does]. They complain [about what happens to them]. They do the sinful things that their [bodies] desire. They talk boastfully. They (flatter/say nice things to) people, only in order to get [those people to give them the] things that they want.
17 Bara nani anum linwa na lizinong tigbulan too na iwa belu nin burne na nann lirinu ncif bite Yesu Kristi.
But you people whom I love need to remember the things that were predicted by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ {that the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ said would happen}.
18 Iwa woro minu nayiri nimalinghe anan sissuu ma dak, ima dofunu kata kanazan ka nibinai mine.
They told you, “In the final period of time [in which we are now living] there will be people who will laugh at [the truths that God has revealed]. They will do the (ungodly things/things that are displeasing to God) that their [bodies] desire.”
19 Ale anite di nin suu nanti, na idinin nfip milauwa ba.
[That describes] the teachers of false doctrine [well, because] they are the ones who cause divisions among believers. They do what their own minds tell them to do. The Spirit [of God] does not live within them.
20 Bara nani anu n linwana, bara na ina kee atimine ketene u yinu sa u yenu udya nin nlira muu na idin tizu nanya infep milau.
But you people whom I love, (hold/continue to trust) firmly to the very sacred truths that you believe. Pray by [letting] the Holy Spirit enable/empower you.
21 Ceu atimine nanya nsu Kutelle, Iyerje ikunekunwe ncef bite Yesu Kristi unan lai sa ligang. (aiōnios g166)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
22 Nin yerju nkunekune nati na mong anit ale na idi nin nibinai nibaba
Mercifully [help] those who are not certain [what teaching they should believe].
23 Nin tucu na mo, ikpalizin nani nanya nla nin namong lanzan nkunekune nin fiu nafo na inari kultuk koo na indinong kidowo nnanza.
[Rescue] others from [the influence of those who teach what is false] [MET], [as you would rescue things by] snatching [them from] a fire. Pity those [whom the teachers of false doctrine have completely convinced], but beware that [you yourselves are not influenced by them] {that they do not influence you}. Detest [doing or even thinking about the sins that those people commit, just like you would detest] [MET] touching not only filthy things but the clothes that were stained by those things {that those things stained}.
24 Nene udu ule na ama kesu fi utirzu a ceu fi nbun nle na ama yantifi sa kulapi nanya mmang sa ligan,
God is able to keep you from ceasing to trust in him (OR, from sinning), and he is able to bring you into his glorious presence. [As you stand before him], there will be nothing [for which] you [will] be condemned {[he can] condemn you}, and you will be rejoicing greatly.
25 udu iti Kutelle cas unan tucubite nanya Yesu Kristi Ucif bite, liru, tigo nin likara uburnu nin nene, nin salingang. Usonani. (aiōn g165)
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
