³Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

³Maiteác, artha handi dudalaric çuey scribatzera saluamendu communaz, necessario içan çait çuey scribatzera, exhorta çaitzatedançát bihotz hartzera behin sainduey eman içan çayen fedeagatic.

⁴For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁵I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

⁵Bada gauça hauc aippatu nahi drauzquiçuet, ikussiric ecen haur behin badaquiçuela, ecen Iaunac populua Egyptetic deliuratu çuenean, sinhetsi vkan etzutenac guero deseguin vkan cituela.

⁷Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

⁷Sodoma eta Gomorrha, eta hayén aldirietaco hiri hayén moldera paillardatu çutenac, eta berce haraguiaren ondoan ioan ciradenac, exemplutan proposatu içan diraden beçala, su eternaleco pená suffritzen dutela.

⁸Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

⁸Halaber ordea hauc-ere lokarturic bere haraguia satsutzen duté eta seignoriá menospreciatzen eta dignitatéz gaizqui erraiten duté.

⁹Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

⁹Guciagatic-ere Michel Archangelua, deabruaren contra ciharducanean disputatzen cela Moysesen gorputzaz, etzedin ventura maledictionezco sententiaren emaitera, baina erran ceçan, Iaunac mehatchaçala.

¹⁰But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

¹¹Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

¹²These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

¹⁴Eta prophetizatu vkan du hauçaz-ere Adamen ondoco çazpigarren guiçonac, Enoch-ec, cioela,

¹⁵To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

¹⁶These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

¹⁶Hauc dirade murmuraçale, reuoltari, bere guthicietan dabiltzanac, eta hayén ahoa propos gucizco hantuz minço da, personac admirationetan dituztela bere probetchuagatic.

¹⁷But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

¹⁷Baina çuec, maiteác, çareten orhoit Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren Apostoluéz aitzinetic erran içan diraden hitzéz:

¹⁸How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

¹⁸Ecen erran vkan drauçuela, nola azquen demboretan içanen diraden abusariac, bere gaichtaquerietaco guthicién araura ebiliren diradenac.

¹⁹These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

²⁰But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

²⁰Baina çuec, maiteác çuen fede gucizco sainduaren gainera çuen buruäc edificatzen dituçuela, eta Spiritu sainduaz othoitz eguiten duçuela,

²¹Elkar Iaincoaren charitatean conserua eçaçue, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren misericordiaren beguira çaudetela vicitze eternalecotzat.

²²And of some have compassion, making a difference:

²²Eta auçue batzuéz pietate, discretionez vsatzen duçuela.

²³And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

²³Eta berceac iciduraz saluaitzaçue, sutic arrapatzen dituçuela, haraguiaz maculatu arropari-ere gaitz daritzoçuela.

²⁴Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

²⁴Gaineracoaz, trebucatu gabe beguira, eta bozcariorequin irreprehensible bere gloria aitzinera eraman ahal çaitzaizqueten Iainco çuhur bakoitzari, eta gure Saluadoreari, dela gloria eta magnificentia eta indar eta puissança, eta orain eta secula gucietacotz. Amen.

²⁵To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
