                              The Epistle of Jude

       Ch. 1                                                          Jude

      1:1 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: 

      1:2 Mercy unto you, and peace,

            and love be multiplied. 

      1:3 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. 

      1:4 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. 

      1:5 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. 

      1:6 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. 

      1:7  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. 

      1:8   Likewise, also, these filthy

              dreamers defile the flesh, despise 

              dominion, and speak evil of dignities. 

      1:9   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. 

      1:10 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. 

      1:11 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. 

      1:12 These are spots in your feasts

               of love,  (*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; 

      1:13  raging waves of the sea, 

               foaming out their own shame; 

               wandering stars, to whom is 

               reserved the blackness of

               darkness for ever. 

      1:14   And Enoch also, 

                the seventh from Adam,

                prophesied of these, saying, 

                Behold, the Lord cometh,

                with ten thousands of his saints, 

1:15  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. 

      1:16  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. 

      1:17 But, beloved, 

              remember  ye  the words which were

              spoken before, of the 

              apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; 

      1:18 How that they told you,

              there should be

              mockers in the last time, 

              who should  walk after their 

              own ungodly lusts. 

      1:19 These be they who

              separate themselves. 

              Sensual, having  not  the  Spirit. 

      1:20 But ye, beloved,

              building up yourselves on your most 

              holy faith, 

              praying in the Holy Ghost, 

      1:21 keep yourselves in the love of God,

              looking for the mercy of our 

              Lord Jesus Christ, unto eternal life. 

      1:22 And of some, have compassion, 

              making a difference: 

      1:23 And others, save with fear,

              pulling them out of the fire; 

              hating even the garment spotted by

              the flesh. 

      1:24 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, 

      1:25 to the only wise God, our Savior, 

              be glory and majesty,

              dominion  and power, 

              both now, and  ever.  Amen.
