Yahuda 1
1 Yahuda kucin Yesu Kristi nin gwana Yakubu udu ale na iyicila linwana nanya Kutelle ucif nin ciyu Yesu Kreisti.
Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James: To those who are in God the Father, enfolded in His love, and kept for Jesus Christ, and called.
2 Na ayi akunekune udu kitimine nin sheu nibinai nin suu tigbardan
May mercy, peace and love be abundantly granted to 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.
Dear friends, since I am eager to begin a letter to you on the subject of our common salvation, I find myself constrained to write and cheer you on to the vigorous defense of the faith delivered once for all to God's people.
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.
For certain persons have crept in unnoticed--men spoken of in ancient writings as pre-destined to this condemnation--ungodly men, who pervert the grace of our God into an excuse for immorality, and disown Jesus Christ, our only Sovereign and Lord.
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.
I desire to remind you--although the whole matter is already familiar to you--that the Lord saved a people out of the land of Egypt, but afterwards destroyed those who had no faith.
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 angels--those who did not keep the position originally assigned to them, but deserted their own proper abode--He reserves in everlasting bonds, in darkness, in preparation for the judgement of the great day. (aïdios g126)
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)
So also Sodom and Gomorrah--and the neighboring towns in the same manner--having been guilty of gross fornication and having gone astray in pursuit of unnatural vice, are now before us as a specimen of the fire of the Ages in the punishment which they are undergoing. (aiōnios g166)
8 Nin nani libau lirume alele nanza nidowo mine nanya namoro, inarsi anan natet tigo, nani ibele inun inanzan kusari nanan natt udia.
Yet in just the same way these dreamers also pollute the body, while they set authority at naught and speak evil of dignities.
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.''
But Michael the Archangel, when contending with the Devil and arguing with him about the body of Moses, did not dare to pronounce judgement on him in abusive terms, but simply said, "The Lord 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.
Yet these men are abusive in matters of which they know nothing, and in things which, like the brutes, they understand instinctively--in all these they corrupt themselves.
11 Kash mine! bara na ina cina nanya libau kainu, inanin pira ndina ntanu Balam nsu nikurfun, inani diku zemzamlibau Kora unan mayardan.
Alas for them; for they have followed in the steps of Cain; for the sake of gain they have rushed on headlong in the evil ways of Balaam; and have perished in rebellion like that of Korah!
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.
These men--sunken rocks! --are those who share the pleasure of your love-feasts, unrestrained by fear while caring only for themselves; clouds without water, driven away by the winds; trees that cast their fruit, barren, doubly dead, uprooted;
13 Ufunu nanya kurawa, anutuzuno kupunjetnceen mine, iyinin galu bara inunye usiriu nanya insirti na na yashe nani se saligan. (aiōn g165)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom is reserved dense darkness of age-long duration. (aiōn g165)
14 Nin bara anit alele nan Enok unan zur unuzu Adamu iwa beling aworo, ' Yene! Ucif bit nda nin namiu m likure nanit alau,
It was also about these that Enoch, who belonged to the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, saying, "The Lord has come, attended by myriads of His people, to execute judgement upon all,
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.
and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly deeds which in their ungodliness they have committed, and of all the hard words which they, ungodly sinners as they are, 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.
These men are murmurers, ever bemoaning their lot. Their lives are guided by their evil passions, and their mouths are full of big, boastful words, while they treat individual men with admiring reverence for the sake of the advantage they can gain.
17 Bara nani anum linwa na lizinong tigbulan too na iwa belu nin burne na nann lirinu ncif bite Yesu Kristi.
But as for you, my dearly-loved friends, remember the words that before now were spoken by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ--
18 Iwa woro minu nayiri nimalinghe anan sissuu ma dak, ima dofunu kata kanazan ka nibinai mine.
how they declared to you, "In the last times there shall be scoffers, obeying only their own ungodly passions."
19 Ale anite di nin suu nanti, na idinin nfip milauwa ba.
These are those who cause divisions. They are men of the world, wholly unspiritual.
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, my dearly-loved friends, building yourselves up on the basis of your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 Ceu atimine nanya nsu Kutelle, Iyerje ikunekunwe ncef bite Yesu Kristi unan lai sa ligang. (aiōnios g166)
must keep yourselves safe in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ which will result in the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
22 Nin yerju nkunekune nati na mong anit ale na idi nin nibinai nibaba
Some, when they argue with you, you must endeavor to convince;
23 Nin tucu na mo, ikpalizin nani nanya nla nin namong lanzan nkunekune nin fiu nafo na inari kultuk koo na indinong kidowo nnanza.
others you must try to save, as brands plucked from the flames; and on others look with pity mingled with fear, while you hate every trace of their sin.
24 Nene udu ule na ama kesu fi utirzu a ceu fi nbun nle na ama yantifi sa kulapi nanya mmang sa ligan,
But to Him who is able to keep you safe from stumbling, and cause you to stand in the presence of His glory free from blemish and full of exultant joy--
25 udu iti Kutelle cas unan tucubite nanya Yesu Kristi Ucif bite, liru, tigo nin likara uburnu nin nene, nin salingang. Usonani. (aiōn g165)
to the only God our Saviour--through Jesus Christ our Lord, be ascribed glory, majesty, might, and authority, as it was before all time, is now, and shall be to all the Ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
