65_JDE_01_01 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:
65_JDE_01_02 Mercy unto you, and peace and love, be multiplied.
65_JDE_01_03 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.
65_JDE_01_04 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.
65_JDE_01_05 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.
65_JDE_01_06 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.
65_JDE_01_07 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.
65_JDE_01_08 Likewise also these [filthy] dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
65_JDE_01_09 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.
65_JDE_01_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.
65_JDE_01_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.
65_JDE_01_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;
65_JDE_01_13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
65_JDE_01_14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
65_JDE_01_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.
65_JDE_01_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.
65_JDE_01_17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
65_JDE_01_18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
65_JDE_01_19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
65_JDE_01_20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
65_JDE_01_21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
65_JDE_01_22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
65_JDE_01_23 And others save with fear, pulling [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
65_JDE_01_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,
65_JDE_01_25 To the only wise God our Saviour, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and for ever. Amen.
