Jude
New International Version
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)

Jude
New King James Version
Greeting to the Called
1 Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and (A)brother of James,
To those who are (B)called, [a]sanctified by God the Father, and (C)preserved in Jesus Christ:
2 Mercy, (D)peace, and love be multiplied to you.
Contend for the Faith
3 Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you (E)concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting (F)you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord [b]God and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Old and New Apostates
5 But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, that (G)the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe. 6 And the angels who did not keep their [c]proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day; 7 as (H)Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the [d]vengeance of eternal fire.
8 (I)Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and (J)speak evil of [e]dignitaries. 9 Yet Michael the archangel, in [f]contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, (K)“The Lord rebuke you!” 10 (L)But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone in the way (M)of Cain, (N)have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished (O)in the rebellion of Korah.
Apostates Depraved and Doomed
12 These are [g]spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried [h]about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots; 13 (P)raging waves of the sea, (Q)foaming up their own shame; wandering stars (R)for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, 15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the (S)harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”
Apostates Predicted
16 These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they (T)mouth great swelling words, (U)flattering people to gain advantage. 17 (V)But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: 18 how they told you that (W)there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. 19 These are [i]sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.
Maintain Your Life with God
20 But you, beloved, (X)building yourselves up on your most holy faith, (Y)praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, (Z)looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
22 And on some have compassion, [j]making a distinction; 23 but (AA)others save [k]with fear, (AB)pulling them out of the [l]fire, hating even (AC)the garment defiled by the flesh.
Glory to God
24 (AD)Now to Him who is able to keep [m]you from stumbling,
And (AE)to present you faultless
Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,
25 To [n]God our Savior,
[o]Who alone is wise,
Be glory and majesty,
Dominion and [p]power,
Both now and forever.
Amen.

Giuda
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
Indirizzo e occasione
1 Giuda, servo di Gesù Cristo, fratello di Giacomo, agli eletti che vivono nell'amore di Dio Padre e sono stati preservati per Gesù Cristo: 2 misericordia a voi e pace e carità in abbondanza.
3 Carissimi, avevo un gran desiderio di scrivervi riguardo alla nostra salvezza, ma sono stato costretto a farlo per esortarvi a combattere per la fede, che fu trasmessa ai credenti una volta per tutte. 4 Si sono infiltrati infatti tra voi alcuni individui - i quali sono gia stati segnati da tempo per questa condanna - empi che trovano pretesto alla loro dissolutezza nella grazia del nostro Dio, rinnegando il nostro unico padrone e signore Gesù Cristo.
I falsi dottori. Il castigo che li minaccia
5 Ora io voglio ricordare a voi, che gia conoscete tutte queste cose, che il Signore dopo aver salvato il popolo dalla terra d'Egitto, fece perire in seguito quelli che non vollero credere, 6 e che gli angeli che non conservarono la loro dignità ma lasciarono la propria dimora, egli li tiene in catene eterne, nelle tenebre, per il giudizio del gran giorno. 7 Così Sòdoma e Gomorra e le città vicine, che si sono abbandonate all'impudicizia allo stesso modo e sono andate dietro a vizi contro natura, stanno come esempio subendo le pene di un fuoco eterno.
Le loro bestemmie. La loro perversità
8 Ugualmente, anche costoro, come sotto la spinta dei loro sogni, contaminano il proprio corpo, disprezzano il Signore e insultano gli esseri gloriosi. 9 L'arcangelo Michele quando, in contesa con il diavolo, disputava per il corpo di Mosè, non osò accusarlo con parole offensive, ma disse: Ti condanni il Signore! 10 Costoro invece bestemmiano tutto ciò che ignorano; tutto ciò che essi conoscono per mezzo dei sensi, come animali senza ragione, questo serve a loro rovina. 11 Guai a loro! Perché si sono incamminati per la strada di Caino e, per sete di lucro, si sono impegolati nei traviamenti di Balaàm e sono periti nella ribellione di Kore. 12 Sono la sozzura dei vostri banchetti sedendo insieme a mensa senza ritegno, pascendo se stessi; come nuvole senza pioggia portate via dai venti, o alberi di fine stagione senza frutto, due volte morti, sradicati; 13 come onde selvagge del mare, che schiumano le loro brutture; come astri erranti, ai quali è riservata la caligine della tenebra in eterno.
14 Profetò anche per loro Enoch, settimo dopo Adamo, dicendo: «Ecco, il Signore è venuto con le sue miriadi di angeli per far il giudizio contro tutti, 15 e per convincere tutti gli empi di tutte le opere di empietà che hanno commesso e di tutti gli insulti che peccatori empi hanno pronunziato contro di lui». 16 Sono sobillatori pieni di acredine, che agiscono secondo le loro passioni; la loro bocca proferisce parole orgogliose e adùlano le persone per motivi interessati.
Esortazioni ai fedeli. L'insegnamento degli apostoli
17 Ma voi, o carissimi, ricordatevi delle cose che furono predette dagli apostoli del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo. 18 Essi vi dicevano: «Alla fine dei tempi vi saranno impostori, che si comporteranno secondo le loro empie passioni». 19 Tali sono quelli che provocano divisioni, gente materiale, privi dello Spirito.
I doveri della carità
20 Ma voi, carissimi, costruite il vostro edificio spirituale sopra la vostra santissima fede, pregate mediante lo Spirito Santo, 21 conservatevi nell'amore di Dio, attendendo la misericordia del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo per la vita eterna. 22 Convincete quelli che sono vacillanti, 23 altri salvateli strappandoli dal fuoco, di altri infine abbiate compassione con timore, guardandovi perfino dalla veste contaminata dalla loro carne.
Dossologia
24 A colui che può preservarvi da ogni caduta e farvi comparire davanti alla sua gloria senza difetti e nella letizia, 25 all'unico Dio, nostro salvatore, per mezzo di Gesù Cristo nostro Signore, gloria, maestà, forza e potenza prima di ogni tempo, ora e sempre. Amen!
Jude
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.
Judas
Ang Biblia (1978)
1 Si Judas, na (A)alipin ni Jesucristo, at kapatid ni (B)Santiago, sa mga (C)tinawag, na minamahal sa Dios Ama, at (D)iniingatang para kay Jesucristo:
2 Kaawaan at (E)kapayapaan at pagibig ang sa inyo nawa'y paramihin.
3 Mga minamahal, samantalang ako'y totoong nagsisikap ng pagsulat sa inyo (F)tungkol sa kaligtasan nating lahat, ay napilitan akong sumulat sa inyo na inaaralan kayong (G)makipaglabang masikap dahil (H)sa pananampalataya na ibinigay na minsan at magpakailan man sa mga banal.
4 Sapagka't may ilang taong (I)nagsipasok ng lihim, yaong mga itinalaga nang una pa sa kahatulang ito, mga di banal, (J)na pinalitan ng kalibugan ang biyaya ng ating Dios, na itinatatuwa ang ating iisang (K)Guro at Panginoong si Jesucristo.
5 Ninanasa ko ngang ipaalaala sa inyo, bagama't nalalaman ninyong maigi ang lahat ng mga bagay, na nang mailigtas (L)ng Panginoon ang isang bayan, sa lupain ng Egipto, ay (M)nilipol niya pagkatapos yaong mga hindi nagsisipanampalataya.
6 At (N)ang mga anghel na hindi nangagingat ng kanilang sariling (O)pamunuan, kundi iniwan ang kanilang sariling tahanan, ay iniingatan niya sa mga tanikalang walang hanggan sa paghuhukom sa dakilang araw.
7 Gayon din ang (P)Sodoma at Gomorra, at ang mga bayang nasa palibot ng mga ito, na dahil sa pagpapakabuyo sa pakikiapid at sa pagsunod sa ibang (Q)laman, ay inilagay na pinakahalimbawa, na sila'y nagbabata (R)ng parusang apoy na walang hanggan.
8 Gayon ma'y ang mga ito rin naman sa kanilang pagkagupiling ay inihahawa ang laman, at hinahamak ang mga paghahari, at nilalait ang mga puno.
9 Datapuwa't (S)ang arkanghel (T)Miguel, nang makipaglaban sa diablo, na nakikipagtalo (U)tungkol sa katawan ni Moises, ay (V)hindi nangahas gumamit laban sa kaniya ng isang hatol na may pagalipusta, kundi sinabi, (W)Sawayin ka nawa ng Panginoon.
10 Datapuwa't (X)ang mga ito'y nangalipusta sa anomang bagay na hindi nila nalalaman: at sa mga bagay na talagang kanilang nauunawa, ay nangagpapakasira na gaya ng mga kinapal na walang bait.
11 Sa aba nila! sapagka't sila'y nagsilakad sa daan ni (Y)Cain, at nagsidaluhong na walang pagpipigil sa kamalian (Z)ni Balaam dahil sa upa, at nangapahamak sa pagsalangsang (AA)ni Core.
12 Ang mga ito'y pawang mga batong natatago (AB)sa inyong piging ng pagiibigan, kung sila'y nakikipagpiging sa inyo, mga pastor na walang takot na nangagpapasabsab sa kanilang sarili; (AC)mga alapaap na walang tubig, na (AD)tinatangay ng mga hangin; mga punong kahoy sa taginaw na walang bunga, na makalawang namatay, na binunot pati ugat;
13 Mga mabangis na alon sa dagat, na pinagbubula ang kanilang sariling kahihiyan; mga bituing gala na siyang pinaglaanan ng pusikit ng kadiliman magpakailan man.
14 At ang mga ito naman ang hinulaan ni Enoc, na (AE)ikapito sa bilang mula kay Adam, na nagsabi, Narito, dumating ang Panginoon, na kasama ang kaniyang mga (AF)laksalaksang banal,
15 Upang isagawa ang paghuhukom sa lahat, at upang sumbatan ang lahat ng masasama sa lahat ng kanilang mga gawang masasama na kanilang ginawang may kasamaan, at sa lahat ng mga bagay na mabibigat (AG)na sinalita laban sa kaniya ng mga makasalanang masasama.
16 Ang mga ito'y mga mapagbulong, mga madaingin, na nangagsisilakad ayon sa kanilang masasamang pita (at ang (AH)kanilang bibig ay nangagsasalita ng mga kapalaluan), (AI)nangagpapakita ng galang sa mga tao dahil sa pakikinabangin.
17 Nguni't kayo, mga minamahal, (AJ)ay alalahanin ninyo ang mga salitang nang una'y sinabi ng mga apostol ng ating Panginoong Jesucristo;
18 Kung paanong sinabi sa inyo, (AK)Magkakaroon ng mga manunuya sa huling panahon, na magsisilakad ayon sa kanikanilang masasamang pita.
19 Ang mga ito (AL)ang nagsisigawa ng paghihiwalay, (AM)malalayaw, na (AN)walang taglay na Espiritu.
20 Nguni't kayo, mga minamahal, (AO)papagtibayin ninyo ang inyong sarili sa inyong lubhang banal na pananampalataya, (AP)na manalangin sa Espiritu Santo,
21 Na magsipanatili kayo sa pagibig sa Dios, (AQ)na inyong asahan ang awa ng ating Panginoong Jesucristo sa ikabubuhay na walang hanggan.
22 At (AR)ang ibang nagaalinlangan ay inyong kahabagan;
23 At ang (AS)iba'y inyong iligtas, (AT)na agawin ninyo sa apoy; at ang iba'y inyong kahabagan na may takot; na inyong kapootan pati (AU)ng damit na nadungisan ng laman.
24 Ngayon doon sa makapagiingat sa inyo mula sa pagkatisod, at sa inyo'y (AV)makapaghaharap na walang kapintasan na may malaking galak, sa harapan ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian.
25 Sa (AW)iisang Dios na (AX)ating Tagapagligtas, sa pamamagitan ni Jesucristo na ating Panginoon, ay sumakaniya nawa ang kaluwalhatian, ang karangalan, ang paghahari, at ang kapangyarihan, sa kaunaunahang panahon, at ngayon at magpakailan man. Siya nawa.
