Jude, a servant of Jesus (the) Messiah, and brother of James, to those who are called, loved by God the Father, and kept for Jesus (the) Messiah:
2 kṛpā śāntiḥ prema ca bāhulyarūpeṇa yuṣmāsvadhitiṣṭhatu|
Mercy to you and peace and love be multiplied.
3 he priyāḥ, sādhāraṇaparitrāṇamadhi yuṣmān prati lekhituṁ mama bahuyatne jāte pūrvvakāle pavitralokeṣu samarpito yo dharmmastadarthaṁ yūyaṁ prāṇavyayenāpi saceṣṭā bhavateti vinayārthaṁ yuṣmān prati patralekhanamāvaśyakam amanye|
Beloved, while I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.
4 yasmād etadrūpadaṇḍaprāptaye pūrvvaṁ likhitāḥ kecijjanā asmān upasṛptavantaḥ, te 'dhārmmikalokā asmākam īśvarasyānugrahaṁ dhvajīkṛtya lampaṭatām ācaranti, advitīyo 'dhipati ryo 'smākaṁ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭastaṁ nāṅgīkurvvanti|
For there are certain people who crept in secretly, even those who were long ago written about for this condemnation: ungodly people, turning the grace of our God into sensuality, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus (the) Messiah.
5 tasmād yūyaṁ purā yad avagatāstat puna ryuṣmān smārayitum icchāmi, phalataḥ prabhurekakṛtvaḥ svaprajā misaradeśād udadhāra yat tataḥ param aviśvāsino vyanāśayat|
Now I want to remind you, though you already know all these things, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.
6 ye ca svargadūtāḥ svīyakartṛtvapade na sthitvā svavāsasthānaṁ parityaktavantastān sa mahādinasya vicārārtham andhakāramaye 'dhaḥsthāne sadāsthāyibhi rbandhanairabadhnāt| (aïdios g126)
Angels who did not keep their first domain, but deserted their own dwelling place, he has kept in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios g126)
7 aparaṁ sidomam amorā tannikaṭasthanagarāṇi caiteṣāṁ nivāsinastatsamarūpaṁ vyabhicāraṁ kṛtavanto viṣamamaithunasya ceṣṭayā vipathaṁ gatavantaśca tasmāt tānyapi dṛṣṭāntasvarūpāṇi bhūtvā sadātanavahninā daṇḍaṁ bhuñjate| (aiōnios g166)
Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, having, in the same way as these, given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of everlasting fire. (aiōnios g166)
8 tathaiveme svapnācāriṇo'pi svaśarīrāṇi kalaṅkayanti rājādhīnatāṁ na svīkurvvantyuccapadasthān nindanti ca|
Yet in like manner these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and blaspheme the glories.
9 kintu pradhānadivyadūto mīkhāyelo yadā mūsaso dehe śayatānena vivadamānaḥ samabhāṣata tadā tisman nindārūpaṁ daṇḍaṁ samarpayituṁ sāhasaṁ na kṛtvākathayat prabhustvāṁ bhartsayatāṁ|
But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, "May the Lord rebuke you."
10 kintvime yanna budhyante tannindanti yacca nirbbodhapaśava ivendriyairavagacchanti tena naśyanti|
But these speak evil of whatever things they do not know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they are destroyed in these things.
11 tān dhik, te kābilo mārge caranti pāritoṣikasyāśāto biliyamo bhrāntimanudhāvanti korahasya durmmukhatvena vinaśyanti ca|
Woe to them. For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in Korah's rebellion.
12 yuṣmākaṁ premabhojyeṣu te vighnajanakā bhavanti, ātmambharayaśca bhūtvā nirlajjayā yuṣmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ bhuñjate| te vāyubhiścālitā nistoyameghā hemantakālikā niṣphalā dvi rmṛtā unmūlitā vṛkṣāḥ,
These are hidden rocky reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you, shepherds who without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 svakīyalajjāpheṇodvamakāḥ pracaṇḍāḥ sāmudrataraṅgāḥ sadākālaṁ yāvat ghoratimirabhāgīni bhramaṇakārīṇi nakṣatrāṇi ca bhavanti| (aiōn g165)
wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn g165)
14 ādamataḥ saptamaḥ puruṣo yo hanokaḥ sa tānuddiśya bhaviṣyadvākyamidaṁ kathitavān, yathā, paśya svakīyapuṇyānām ayutai rveṣṭitaḥ prabhuḥ|
About these also Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, "Look, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,
15 sarvvān prati vicārājñāsādhanāyāgamiṣyati| tadā cādhārmmikāḥ sarvve jātā yairaparādhinaḥ| vidharmmakarmmaṇāṁ teṣāṁ sarvveṣāmeva kāraṇāt| tathā tadvaiparītyenāpyadharmmācāripāpināṁ| uktakaṭhoravākyānāṁ sarvveṣāmapi kāraṇāt| parameśena doṣitvaṁ teṣāṁ prakāśayiṣyate||
to execute judgment on all, and to convict every person of all their works of ungodliness which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
16 te vākkalahakāriṇaḥ svabhāgyanindakāḥ svecchācāriṇo darpavādimukhaviśiṣṭā lābhārthaṁ manuṣyastāvakāśca santi|
These are murmurers and complainers, walking after their lusts (and their mouth speaks proud things), showing respect of persons to gain advantage.
17 kintu he priyatamāḥ, asmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya preritai ryad vākyaṁ pūrvvaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ kathitaṁ tat smarata,
But you, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah.
18 phalataḥ śeṣasamaye svecchāto 'dharmmācāriṇo nindakā upasthāsyantīti|
They said to you that "In the end time there will be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts."
19 ete lokāḥ svān pṛthak kurvvantaḥ sāṁsārikā ātmahīnāśca santi|
These are they who cause divisions, and are sensual, not having the Spirit.
20 kintu he priyatamāḥ, yūyaṁ sveṣām atipavitraviśvāse nicīyamānāḥ pavitreṇātmanā prārthanāṁ kurvvanta
But you, beloved, keep building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.
21 īśvarasya premnā svān rakṣata, anantajīvanāya cāsmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya kṛpāṁ pratīkṣadhvaṁ| (aiōnios g166)
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah to everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
22 aparaṁ yūyaṁ vivicya kāṁścid anukampadhvaṁ
And be merciful on those who doubt,
23 kāṁścid agnita uddhṛtya bhayaṁ pradarśya rakṣata, śārīrikabhāvena kalaṅkitaṁ vastramapi ṛtīyadhvaṁ|
and some save, snatching them out of the fire, and on some have mercy with fear; hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
24 aparañca yuṣmān skhalanād rakṣitum ullāsena svīyatejasaḥ sākṣāt nirddoṣān sthāpayituñca samartho
Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,
