1Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:
1[Fananarana ny amin'ny mpampianatra sandoka] Joda, mpanompon'i Jesosy Kristy sady rahalahin'i Jakoba, mamangy izay olona voantso, malala ao amin'Andriamanitra Ray sy voatahiry ho an'i Jesosy Kristy;
2Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
2hampitomboina ho anareo anie ny famindram-po sy ny fiadanana ary ny fitiavana.
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.
3Ry malala, raha manao izay zotom-po rehetra hanoratra aminareo aho hilaza ny amin'ny famonjena iombonantsika, dia nisy nahatery ahy hanoratra aminareo, hananatra mba hiezahanareo mafy hiaro ny finoana izay efa voatolotra indray mandeha monja ho an'ny olona masina.
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.
4Fa misy olona sasany efa niditra misokosoko, izay voasoratra fahiny ho amin'izany fahamelohana izany, dia olona ratsy fanahy izay mamadika ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitsika ho fijejojejoana sady nandà ny Andrian-tokana, dia Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika. [ Na: mandà ny Andrian-tokana sy Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika]
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.
5Ary ta-hampahatsiaro anareo aho, na dia efa fantatrareo rahateo aza ny zavatra rehetra, fa rehefa novonjen'ny Tompo ho afaka tany Egypta ny olona, dia naringany ihany tao aorian'izany izay tsy nino.
6And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
6Ary ny anjely izay tsy nitana ny anjara-fanapahany, fa nandao ny fonenany, dia voahazony amin'ny fatorana mandrakizay ao amin'ny maizina ho amin'ny andro fitsarana lehibe.
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.
7Ary toy izany koa, Sodoma sy Gomora mbamin'ny tanàna nanodidina azy, izay nijangajanga tahaka azy koa ka lasa nanaraka nofo hafa, dia aseho ho fananarana amin'ny iaretany fijaliana amin'ny afo maharitra mandrakizay.
8Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
8Kanefa toy izany koa, ireo dia manonofy ka mandoto ny nofo sady mandà ny manana fahalehibiazana ary miteny ratsy ny manana voninahitra. [ Gr. manao blasfemia; izahao Mat. IX 3]
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.
9Fa Mikaela arikanjely aza, raha niady tamin'ny devoly ka nifanditra ny amin'ny fatin'i Mosesy, dia tsy sahy niteny ratsy hahameloka azy, fa hoy izy: "Hananatra anao anie Jehovah".
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.
10Fa ireo kosa dia miteny ratsy izay zavatra rehetra tsy fantany akory; ary izay zavatra fantany fotsiny, tahaka ny fahalalan'ny biby tsy manan-tsaina kosa, no animbany ny tenany. [ Na: andotoany]
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.
11Hahita loza izy! fa efa nandeha tamin'ny lalan'i Kama, sady efa nimaona fatratra hanaraka ny fahadisoan'i Balama hahazoany tamby, ary efa ringana tamin'ny fiodinan'i Kora izy.
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;
12Ireo no harambato voasaron-drano eo amin'ny fanasam-pifankatiavanareo, raha miara-mihinana aminareo izy, dia mpiandry mamahan-tena, nefa tsy matahotra; rahona tsy misy rano, entin'ny rivotra, ireo; hazo fararano, nefa tsy misy voany, indroa maty, voafongotra; [ Na: Ireo no pentimpentina]
13Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
13onjan-dranomasina mitopatopa mamorivory ny fahamenarany; kintana mifindrafindra, ka voatahiry ho azy mandrakizay ny fahamaintisan'ny maizina.
14And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
14Ary Enoka koa, ilay fahafito nandimby an'i Adama, dia efa naminany ny amin'ireny olona ireny ka nanao hoe: "Indro, tonga Jehovah mbamin'ny masiny tsy omby alinalina
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.
15hitsara ny olona rehetra sy hampiaiky ny olona ratsy fanahy rehetra ny asan'ny haratsiam-panahy rehetra, izay nataony tamin'ny haratsiam-panahiny sy ny teny sarotra rehetra izay nitenenan'ny mpanota ratsy fanahy hanohitra Azy."
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.
16Ireo dia mpimonomonona sy mpimoimoy, mandeha araka ny filany (ary ny vavany manao teny miavonavona loatra) ka mandoka olona mba hahazoany zavatra.
17But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
17Fa tsarovinareo, ry malala, ny teny voalazan'ny Apostolin'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika fahiny;
18How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
18fa efa nilaza taminareo hoe izy: Amin'ny andro farany dia hisy mpaniratsira, mandeha araka ny filan'ny haratsiam-panahiny.
19These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
19Ireo no mahatonga fisarahana, dia olona araka ny nofo ihany, fa tsy mba manana ny Fanahy. [ Na: tsy mba manana fanahy]
20But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
20Fa ianareo kosa, ry malala, dia ataovy izay handrosoanareo amin'ny finoanareo masina indrindra, ka mivavaha ao amin'ny Fanahy Masina;
21Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
21ary tehirizo ny tenanareo ao amin'ny fitiavan'Andriamanitra, miandry ny famindram-pon'i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika ho fiainana mandrakizay.
22And of some have compassion, making a difference:
22Ary amindrao fo ny sasany izay miahanahana; [ Na: raha miady aminareo izy]
23And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
23ary ny sasany kosa sariho avy amin'ny afo no famonjy azy; ary ny sasany indray amindrao fo amin-tahotra, ka mankahalà na dia ny akanjo voapentimpentin'ny nofo aza.
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,
24Ary ho an'izay maharo anareo mba tsy ho tafintohina, ary hametraka anareo tsy hanan-tsiny eo anoloan'ny voninahiny amin'ny firavoravoana,ho an'Andriamanitra tokana, Mpamonjy antsika, amin'ny alalan i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika anie, ny voninahitra sy ny fahalehibiazana, ny fanjakana sy ny fahefana hatramin'ny taloha indrindra sy ankehitriny ary mandrakizay. Amena.
25To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
25ho an'Andriamanitra tokana, Mpamonjy antsika, amin'ny alalan i Jesosy Kristy Tompontsika anie, ny voninahitra sy ny fahalehibiazana, ny fanjakana sy ny fahefana hatramin'ny taloha indrindra sy ankehitriny ary mandrakizay. Amena.
