问安

耶稣基督的仆人,雅各的兄弟犹大,写信给那些被召的人,就是在父 神里蒙爱,并且为了耶稣基督而蒙保守的人。 愿怜悯、平安、慈爱多多加给你们。

要竭力维护信仰

亲爱的,尽管我曾经迫切地想写信给你们,论到我们共享的救恩;现在我更觉得必须写信劝勉你们,要竭力维护从前一次就全交给了圣徒的信仰, 因为有人已经混进你们中间,他们就是早被判定受刑的不敬虔的人。这些人把我们 神的恩典当作放纵情欲的借口,并且否认独一的主宰我们的主耶稣基督。

列举史实作鉴戒

虽然这一切事情你们都早已知道,我仍然要提醒你们:从前主从埃及地把人民救出来,跟着就把那些不信的人除灭了。 还有,那不守本位擅离自己居所的天使,主就用永远的锁炼把他们拘留在黑暗里,直到那大日子的审判。 又像所多玛、蛾摩拉和周围城市的人,与他们一样的淫乱,随从逆性的情欲,以致遭受永火的刑罚,成了后世的鉴戒。

虽然是这样,这些醉生梦死的人还是照样玷污身体,藐视主权,毁谤尊荣。 就是天使长米迦勒为了摩西的尸体与魔鬼争论的时候,尚且不敢用毁谤的话定他的罪,只说:“主责备你!” 10 但这些人毁谤他们所不知道的,他们只知道按本性所能领悟的事,好象没有理性的禽兽,就在这些事上败坏了自己。 11 他们有祸了,因为他们走上了该隐的道路,又为了财利闯进巴兰的歧途,并且在可拉的背叛中灭亡了。 12 这些人胆敢与你们同席,他们只顾喂饱(“喂饱”或译:“牧养”)自己,是你们爱筵中的暗礁;是无雨的浮云,随风飘荡;是秋天不结果子的树,连根拔起,死而又死; 13 是海中的狂浪,溅起了自己可耻的泡沫;是流荡的星,有漆黑的幽暗永远为他们存留。

14 亚当的第七世孙以诺,也曾经预言这些人说:“看,主必同他的千万圣者降临, 15 要审判众人,又要定所有不敬虔的人的罪,因为他们妄行各样不敬虔的事,并且说了种种刚愎的话顶撞 神。” 16 这些人常发牢骚,怨天尤人,顺着自己的私欲行事,口说夸张的话,为了利益就不惜阿谀奉承。

要在至圣的信仰上建立自己

17 但你们呢,亲爱的,你们要记住我们主耶稣基督的使徒从前所说的话。 18 他们曾经对你们说:“末世必有好讥笑人的人,随着自己不敬虔的私欲行事。” 19 这些人分党结派,是属血气的,没有圣灵。 20 但你们呢,亲爱的,你们要在至圣的信仰上建立自己,在圣灵里祷告, 21 要保守自己在 神的爱中,仰望我们主耶稣基督的怜悯,直到永生。 22 有些人心里疑惑,你们要怜悯他们; 23 有些人你们要拯救,把他们从火中抢救出来;又有些人你们要战战兢兢地怜悯他们,连染上情欲污渍的衣服也应当憎恶。

颂赞的祷告

24-25 愿荣耀、威严、能力、权柄,借着我们的主耶稣基督,从万世以前,及现在,直到永永远远,归给独一的 神我们的救主。他能保守你们不至跌倒,使你们毫无瑕疵、欢然站在他荣光之前。阿们。

The Warnings of History to the Ungodly

[a](A)Jude, a (B)bond-servant of Jesus Christ and brother of [b]James,

To (C)those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and (D)kept for Jesus Christ: (E)May mercy, peace, and love (F)be multiplied to you.

(G)Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our (H)common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you (I)contend earnestly for (J)the faith that was once for all time (K)handed down to (L)the [c]saints. For certain people have (M)crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand [d](N)marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn (O)the grace of our God into (P)indecent behavior and (Q)deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

Now I want to (R)remind you, though (S)you know everything once and for all, that [e]the Lord, (T)after saving a people out of the land of Egypt, [f]subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. And (U)angels who did not keep their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling place, these He has (V)kept in eternal restraints under darkness for the judgment of the great day, just as (W)Sodom and Gomorrah and the (X)cities around them, since they in the same way as these angels indulged in sexual perversion and (Y)went after [g]strange flesh, are exhibited as an [h](Z)example in undergoing the (AA)punishment of eternal fire.

Yet in the same way these people also, dreaming, (AB)defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak abusively of angelic [i]majesties. But (AC)Michael (AD)the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about (AE)the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him an abusive judgment, but said, “(AF)The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But (AG)these people disparage all the things that they do not understand; and (AH)all the things that they know by instinct, (AI)like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone (AJ)the way of Cain, and for pay [j]they have given themselves up to (AK)the error of Balaam, and (AL)perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are the ones who are [k]hidden reefs (AM)in your love feasts when they feast with you (AN)without fear, like shepherds caring only for themselves; (AO)clouds without water, (AP)carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, [l]doubly dead, (AQ)uprooted; 13 (AR)wild waves of the sea, churning up (AS)their own shameful deeds like dirty foam; wandering stars, (AT)for whom the [m]gloom of darkness has been reserved forever.

14 It was also about these people that (AU)Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, saying, “(AV)Behold, the Lord has come with [n]many thousands of His holy ones, 15 (AW)to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their ungodly deeds which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which (AX)ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” 16 These are (AY)grumblers, finding fault, (AZ)following after their own lusts; [o]they speak (BA)arrogantly, flattering people (BB)for the sake of gaining an advantage.

Keep Yourselves in the Love of God

17 But you, (BC)beloved, (BD)ought to remember the words that were spoken beforehand by (BE)the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, 18 that they were saying to you, “(BF)In the last time there will be mockers, (BG)following after their own ungodly lusts.” 19 These are the ones who cause divisions, [p](BH)worldly-minded, [q]devoid of the Spirit. 20 But you, (BI)beloved, (BJ)building yourselves up on your most holy (BK)faith, (BL)praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, (BM)looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on some, who are doubting; 23 save others, (BN)snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, (BO)hating even the garment polluted by the flesh.

24 (BP)Now to Him who is able to protect you from stumbling, and to (BQ)make you stand in the presence of His glory, blameless with (BR)great joy, 25 to the (BS)only (BT)God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, (BU)be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority (BV)before all time and now and [r]forever. Amen.

Greeting

Jude,(A) a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James:

To those who are the called,(B) loved[a](C) by God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ.(D)

May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.(E)

Jude’s Purpose in Writing

Dear friends, although I was eager to write you about the salvation we share,(F) I found it necessary to write, appealing to you to contend for the faith(G) that was delivered(H) to the saints once for all. For some people, who were designated for this judgment long ago,[b](I) have come in by stealth;(J) they are ungodly,(K) turning the grace of our God into sensuality and denying(L) Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord.

Apostates: Past and Present

Now I want to remind you, although you came to know all these things once and for all, that Jesus[c] saved a people out of Egypt and later destroyed those who did not believe;(M) and the angels(N) who did not keep their own position but abandoned their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains in deep darkness for the judgment on the great day. Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah(O) and the surrounding towns committed sexual immorality and perversions,[d] and serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.(P)

In the same way these people—relying on their dreams—defile their flesh, reject authority, and slander glorious ones.(Q) Yet when Michael(R) the archangel(S) was disputing with the devil(T) in an argument about Moses’s(U) body, he did not dare utter a slanderous condemnation against him but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But these people blaspheme anything they do not understand. And what they do understand by instinct—like irrational animals—by these things they are destroyed. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone the way of Cain,(V) have plunged into Balaam’s error(W) for profit, and have perished in Korah’s rebellion.(X)

The Apostates’ Doom

12 These people are dangerous reefs[e] at your love feasts(Y) as they eat with you without reverence. They are shepherds who only look after themselves. They are waterless clouds carried along by winds;(Z) trees in late autumn—fruitless, twice dead and uprooted. 13 They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shameful deeds; wandering stars(AA) for whom the blackness of darkness(AB) is reserved forever.(AC)

14 It was about these that Enoch,(AD) in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied: “Look! The Lord comes with tens of thousands of his holy ones(AE) 15 to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly(AF) concerning all the ungodly acts that they have done in an ungodly way, and concerning all the harsh things ungodly sinners have said against him.” 16 These people are discontented grumblers, living according to their desires;(AG) their mouths utter arrogant words, flattering(AH) people for their own advantage.

17 But you, dear friends, remember what was predicted by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18 They told you, “In the end time(AI) there will be scoffers(AJ) living according to their own ungodly desires.” 19 These people create divisions and are worldly,(AK) not having the Spirit.

Exhortation and Benediction

20 But you, dear friends, as you build yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,(AL) 21 keep yourselves in the love of God,(AM) waiting expectantly for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life. 22 Have mercy on those who waver; 23 save others by snatching them from the fire;(AN) have mercy on others but with fear,(AO) hating(AP) even the garment(AQ) defiled by the flesh.

24 Now to him(AR) who is able to protect you from stumbling(AS) and to make you stand in the presence of his glory, without blemish(AT) and with great joy, 25 to the only(AU) God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord,[f] be glory, majesty, power, and authority before all time,[g] now and forever. Amen.
