1 Jude,[a] a servant of Jesus Christ,[b] and brother of James, to those who are called, sanctified by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ: 2 May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.
3 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 For there are certain men who crept in secretly, even those who were long ago written about for this condemnation: ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into indecency, and denying our only Master, God, and Lord, Jesus Christ.
5 Now I desire to remind you, though you already know this, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who didn’t believe. 6 Angels who didn’t 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. 7 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 shown as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire. 8 Yet in the same way, these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and slander celestial beings. 9 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 But these speak evil of whatever things they don’t know. They are destroyed in these things that they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason. 11 Woe to them! For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in Korah’s rebellion. 12 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 trees without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. 14 About these also Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold,[c] the Lord came with ten thousands of his holy ones, 15 to execute judgment on all, and to convict all the ungodly 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 These are murmurers and complainers, walking after their lusts—and their mouth speaks proud things—showing respect of persons to gain advantage.
17 But you, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18 They said to you, “In the last time there will be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts.” 19 These are those who cause divisions and are sensual, not having the Spirit.
20 But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit. 21 Keep yourselves in God’s love, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 22 On some have compassion, making a distinction, 23 and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
24 Now to him who is able to keep them[d] from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy, 25 to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.

1 Judas, Jesu Kristi tjänare och Jakobs broder, hälsar de kallade, dem som äro upptagna i Guds, Faderns, kärlek och bevarade åt Jesus Kristus.
2 Barmhärtighet och frid och kärlek föröke sig hos eder.
3 Mina älskade, då jag nu med all iver har tagit mig för att skriva till eder om vår gemensamma frälsning, finner jag det nödigt att i min skrivelse förmana eder att kämpa för den tro som en gång för alla har blivit meddelad åt de heliga.
4 Några människor hava nämligen innästlat sig hos eder -- några om vilka det för länge sedan blev skrivet att de skulle hemfalla under den domen -- ogudaktiga människor, som missbruka vår Guds nåd till lösaktighet och förneka vår ende härskare och herre, Jesus Kristus.
5 Men fastän I redan en gång haven fått kunskap om alltsammans, vill jag påminna eder därom, att Herren, sedan han hade frälst sitt folk ur Egyptens land, efteråt förgjorde dem som icke trodde,
6 så ock därom, att de änglar som icke behöllo sin furstehöghet, utan övergåvo sin boning, hava av honom med eviga bojor blivit förvarade i mörker till den stora dagens dom.
7 Likaså hava ock Sodom och Gomorra med kringliggande städer, vilka på samma sätt som de förra bedrevo otukt och stodo efter annat umgänge än det naturliga, blivit satta till ett varnande exempel, i det att de få lida straff i evig eld.
8 Dock göra nu också dessa människor på samma sätt, förblindade av sina drömmar: köttet besmitta de, men andevärldens herrar förakta de, och dess härlige smäda de.
9 Icke så Mikael, överängeln; när denne tvistade med djävulen angående Moses' kropp, dristade han sig icke att över honom uttala någon smädande dom, utan sade allenast: »Herren näpse dig.»
10 Dessa åter smäda vad de icke känna till; och vad de, likasom de oskäliga djuren, med sina naturliga sinnen kunna fatta, det bruka de till sitt fördärv.
11 Ve dem! De hava trätt in på Kains väg, de hava för löns skull störtat sig i Balaams villfarelse och hava gått förlorade till följd av en gensträvighet lik Koras.
12 Det är dessa som få hålla gästabud med eder, där de sitta såsom skamfläckar vid edra kärleksmåltider och oförsynt se sig själva till godo. De äro skyar utan vatten, skyar som drivas bort av vindarna. De äro träd som stå nakna på senhösten, ofruktbara, i dubbel måtto döda, uppryckta med rötterna.
13 De äro vilda havsvågor som uppkasta sina egna skändligheters skum. De äro irrande stjärnor, åt vilka det svarta mörkret är förvarat till evig tid.
14 Om dessa var det ock som Enok, den sjunde från Adam, profeterade och sade: »Se, Herren kommer med sina mångtusen heliga,
15 för att hålla dom över alla och bestraffa alla de ogudaktiga för alla de ogudaktiga gärningar som de hava övat, och för alla de förmätna ord som de i sin syndiga ogudaktighet hava talat mot honom.»
16 De äro människor som alltid knorra och knota över sin lott, medan de likväl vandra efter sina egna begärelser. Och deras mun talar stora ord, under det att de dock av egennytta söka vara människor till behag.
17 Men kommen ihåg, I mina älskade, vad som har blivit förutsagt av vår Herres, Jesu Kristi, apostlar,
18 huru de sade till eder: »I den yttersta tiden skola bespottare uppstå, som vandra efter sina egna ogudaktiga begärelser.»
19 Det är dessa människor som vålla söndringar, dessa som äro »själiska» och icke hava ande.
20 Men I, mina älskade, uppbyggen eder på eder allraheligaste tro, bedjen i den helige Ande,
21 och bevaren eder så i Guds kärlek, under det att I vänten på vår Herres, Jesu Kristi, barmhärtighet, till evigt liv.
22 Mot somliga av dem, sådana som äro tvivlande, mån I vara barmhärtiga
23 och frälsa dem genom att rycka dem ur elden; mot de andra mån I också vara barmhärtiga, dock med fruktan, så att I avskyn till och med deras livklädnad, den av köttet befläckade.
24 Men honom som förmår bevara eder ifrån fall och ställa eder inför sin härlighet ostraffliga, i fröjd,
25 honom som allena är Gud, och som är vår Frälsare genom Jesus Kristus, vår Herre, honom tillhör ära, majestät, välde och makt, såsom före all tid, så ock nu och i alla evigheter. Amen.

1 Jude,(A) a servant of Jesus Christ(B) and a brother of James,
To those who have been called,(C) who are loved in God the Father and kept for[a] Jesus Christ:(D)
2 Mercy, peace(E) and love be yours in abundance.(F)
The Sin and Doom of Ungodly People
3 Dear friends,(G) although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share,(H) I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend(I) for the faith(J) that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people.(K) 4 For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about[b] long ago have secretly slipped in among you.(L) They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.(M)
5 Though you already know all this,(N) I want to remind you(O) that the Lord[c] at one time delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.(P) 6 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling—these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.(Q) 7 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah(R) and the surrounding towns(S) gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.(T)
8 In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings.(U) 9 But even the archangel(V) Michael,(W) when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses,(X) did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”[d](Y) 10 Yet these people slander whatever they do not understand, and the very things they do understand by instinct—as irrational animals do—will destroy them.(Z)
11 Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain;(AA) they have rushed for profit into Balaam’s error;(AB) they have been destroyed in Korah’s rebellion.(AC)
12 These people are blemishes at your love feasts,(AD) eating with you without the slightest qualm—shepherds who feed only themselves.(AE) They are clouds without rain,(AF) blown along by the wind;(AG) autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted(AH)—twice dead. 13 They are wild waves of the sea,(AI) foaming up their shame;(AJ) wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.(AK)
14 Enoch,(AL) the seventh from Adam, prophesied about them: “See, the Lord is coming(AM) with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones(AN) 15 to judge(AO) everyone, and to convict all of them of all the ungodly acts they have committed in their ungodliness, and of all the defiant words ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”[e](AP) 16 These people are grumblers(AQ) and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires;(AR) they boast(AS) about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.
A Call to Persevere
17 But, dear friends, remember what the apostles(AT) of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.(AU) 18 They said to you, “In the last times(AV) there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.”(AW) 19 These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.(AX)
20 But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up(AY) in your most holy faith(AZ) and praying in the Holy Spirit,(BA) 21 keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait(BB) for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.(BC)
22 Be merciful to those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them from the fire;(BD) to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.[f](BE)
Doxology
24 To him who is able(BF) to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence(BG) without fault(BH) and with great joy— 25 to the only God(BI) our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore!(BJ) Amen.(BK)

King James Version
1 Jude, 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:
2 Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
3 Beloved, 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.
4 For 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.
5 I 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.
6 And 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.
7 Even 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.
8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
9 Yet 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.
10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
11 Woe 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.
12 These 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;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15 To 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.
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

Zuschrift und Gruß
1 Judas, Knecht Jesu Christi und Bruder des Jakobus, an die Berufenen, die durch Gott, den Vater, geheiligt und in Jesus Christus bewahrt sind:
2 Barmherzigkeit, Friede und Liebe widerfahre euch mehr und mehr!
Ermahnung, für den überlieferten Glauben zu kämpfen
3 Geliebte, da es mir ein großes Anliegen ist, euch von dem gemeinsamen Heil zu schreiben, hielt ich es für notwendig, euch mit der Ermahnung zu schreiben, dass ihr für den Glauben kämpft,[a] der den Heiligen ein für alle Mal überliefert worden ist.
Das Eindringen von Verführern und das Gericht über sie
4 Es haben sich nämlich etliche Menschen unbemerkt eingeschlichen, die schon längst zu diesem Gericht aufgeschrieben worden sind, Gottlose, welche die Gnade unseres Gottes in Zügellosigkeit verkehren und Gott, den einzigen Herrscher, und unseren Herrn Jesus Christus verleugnen.
5 Ich will euch aber daran erinnern, obgleich ihr dies ja schon wisst, dass der Herr, nachdem er das Volk aus dem Land Ägypten errettet hatte, das zweite Mal diejenigen vertilgte, die nicht glaubten,
6 und dass er die Engel, die ihren Herrschaftsbereich nicht bewahrten, sondern ihre eigene Behausung verließen, für das Gericht des großen Tages mit ewigen Fesseln unter der Finsternis verwahrt hat;
7 wie Sodom und Gomorra und die umliegenden Städte, die in gleicher Weise wie diese die Unzucht bis zum Äußersten trieben und anderem Fleisch nachgingen, nun als warnendes Beispiel dastehen, indem sie die Strafe eines ewigen Feuers zu erleiden haben.
Das frevlerische Verhalten der Verführer
8 Trotzdem beflecken auch diese in gleicher Weise mit ihren Träumereien das Fleisch, verachten die Herrschaft und lästern Mächte[b].
9 Der Erzengel[c] Michael dagegen, als er mit dem Teufel Streit hatte und über den Leib Moses verhandelte, wagte kein lästerndes Urteil zu fällen, sondern sprach: Der Herr strafe dich![d]
10 Diese aber lästern alles, was sie nicht verstehen; was sie aber von Natur wie die unvernünftigen Tiere wissen, darin verderben sie sich.
11 Wehe ihnen! Denn sie sind den Weg Kains gegangen und haben sich um Gewinnes willen völlig dem Betrug Bileams hingegeben und sind durch die Widersetzlichkeit Korahs ins Verderben geraten!
12 Diese sind Schandflecken bei euren Liebesmahlen und schmausen mit [euch], indem sie ohne Scheu sich selbst weiden; Wolken ohne Wasser, von Winden umhergetrieben, unfruchtbare Bäume im Spätherbst, zweimal erstorben und entwurzelt,
13 wilde Wellen des Meeres, die ihre eigene Schande ausschäumen, Irrsterne[e], denen das Dunkel der Finsternis in Ewigkeit aufbewahrt ist.
14 Von diesen hat aber auch Henoch, der Siebte nach Adam, geweissagt, indem er sprach: »Siehe, der Herr ist gekommen mit seinen heiligen Zehntausenden,
15 um Gericht zu halten über alle und alle Gottlosen unter ihnen zu strafen wegen all ihrer gottlosen Taten, womit sie sich vergangen haben, und wegen all der harten [Worte], die gottlose Sünder gegen ihn geredet haben.«
16 Das sind Unzufriedene, die mit ihrem Geschick hadern und dabei nach ihren Lüsten[f] wandeln; und ihr Mund redet übertriebene Worte, wenn sie aus Eigennutz ins Angesicht schmeicheln.
17 Ihr aber, Geliebte, erinnert euch an die Worte, die im Voraus von den Aposteln unseres Herrn Jesus Christus gesprochen worden sind,
18 als sie euch sagten: In der letzten Zeit werden Spötter auftreten, die nach ihren eigenen gottlosen Lüsten wandeln.
19 Das sind die, welche Trennungen verursachen[g], natürliche[h] [Menschen], die den Geist nicht haben.
Ermunterung der treuen Gläubigen und Lobpreis Gottes
20 Ihr aber, Geliebte, erbaut euch auf euren allerheiligsten Glauben[i] und betet im Heiligen Geist;
21 bewahrt euch selbst in der Liebe Gottes und hofft auf die Barmherzigkeit unseres Herrn Jesus Christus zum ewigen Leben.
22 Und erbarmt euch über die einen, wobei ihr unterscheiden sollt[j];
23 andere aber rettet mit Furcht, indem ihr sie aus dem Feuer reißt, wobei ihr auch das vom Fleisch befleckte Gewand hassen sollt.
24 Dem aber, der mächtig genug ist, euch ohne Straucheln zu bewahren und euch unsträflich, mit Freuden vor das Angesicht seiner Herrlichkeit zu stellen,
25 dem allein weisen Gott, unserem Retter, gebührt Herrlichkeit und Majestät, Macht und Herrschaft jetzt und in alle Ewigkeit! Amen.
