Jude 1-2

Amplified Bible

The Warnings of History to the Ungodly

¹ Jude, a bond-servant of Jesus Christ, and ^[a]brother of ^[b]James, [writes this letter],

To those who are the called (God’s chosen ones, the elect), dearly loved by God the Father, and kept [secure and set apart] for Jesus Christ: ² May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you [filling your heart with the spiritual well-being and serenity experienced by those who walk closely with God].
