OET (OET-RV) These are the people who ruin your love feasts when they eat without shame and only look after themselves. They’re like clouds that are blown away by the wind without bringing the needed rain or trees that don’t produce any fruit then are doubly useless by falling over;

ULT These ones are the ones in your love feasts—hidden reefs—fearlessly feasting with you, shepherding themselves; waterless clouds, carried along by winds; fruitless autumn trees—having died twice, having been uprooted,
UST These people are shamelessly eating with you. At your fellowship meals they are like rocks hidden under the water that ships crash against. They only take care of themselves. They are useless, like clouds that the wind carries away before they can give rain. They are useless, like trees that don’t bear fruit at harvest time. They are like trees that will die twice because God will uproot them.
BSB § These men are hidden reefs [fn] in your love feasts, shamelessly feasting with you but shepherding only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried along by the wind; fruitless trees in autumn, twice dead after being uprooted.
1:12 Or are blemishes
BLB These are the hidden reefs, feasting together with you fearlessly in your love feasts; shepherding themselves; clouds without water, being carried about by winds; autumnal trees without fruit, twice having died, having been uprooted;
AICNT These are [the ones who are][fn] blemishes[fn] in your love feasts, feasting with you without fear, tending to themselves, waterless clouds carried {along}[fn] by winds, autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, uprooted,
1:12, the ones who are: Absent from some manuscripts. ℵ(01) BYZ TR
1:12, blemishes: The Greek word has two meanings: (1) a rocky hazard hidden by waves, a rock washed by the sea, a (hidden) reef or (2) that which soil or discolors, spit, stain (BDAG, σπιλάς)
1:12, along: Some manuscripts read “about.” TR
OEB These are the people who are blots on your “love-feasts,” when they feast together and provide without scruple for themselves alone. They are clouds without rain, driven before the winds; they are leafless trees without a vestige of fruit, dead through and through, torn up by the roots;
WEBBE 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;
WMBB (Same as above)
NET These men are dangerous reefs at your love feasts, feasting without reverence, feeding only themselves. They are waterless clouds, carried along by the winds; autumn trees without fruit – twice dead, uprooted;
LSV These are stains at your love-feasts, feasting together with you without fear, shepherding themselves; waterless clouds, being carried away by winds; autumnal trees without fruit, having died twice, having been uprooted;
FBV These people spoil your fellowship meals, for they are selfish shepherds that don't have the slightest sense of shame—they only take care of themselves. They're clouds blown along by the wind that bring no rain. They're bare trees without fruit—twice dead, pulled out by the roots.
TCNT These men are hidden reefs at your love feasts, feeding themselves as they feast among you without fear. They are clouds without water, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, pulled up by the roots.
T4T Those teachers of false doctrine are as dangerous to you as [MET] ◄hidden rocks on a reef/rocks underneath the surface of the ocean► are to a boat. When you gather together to eat the meals that help you believers to love each other more and have a closer relationship with each other, they join you and carouse shamelessly, caring only for themselves and not for others. Because they do not do anything to help others [MET], they are as useless as clouds that are blown along by the wind {that the wind blows along} but that do not produce/give any rain. They are as disappointing as [MET] trees that do not produce fruit in the autumn as we expect them to. They are not only spiritually [MET] dead themselves, but they are not able to cause others to be alive spiritually, just like [MET] trees that have been {that someone has} uprooted and as a result are unable to produce any fruit.

1:12 The early Christians celebrated the Lord’s Supper as part of shared fellowship meals with one another.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
οὗτοί
these
Here, These ones refers to the false teachers introduced in verse 4. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this phrase explicitly. Alternate translation: “These false teachers”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
σπιλάδες
stains
Here, reefs are large rocks that are very close to the surface of water in the sea. Because sailors cannot see them, they are very dangerous. Ships can easily be destroyed if they hit these rocks. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this metaphor with a simile or plainly. Alternate translation: “they are like hidden reefs” or “although they are inconspicuous, these people are extremely dangerous”
Note 3 topic: translate-unknown
ταῖς ἀγάπαις
the love_feasts
Here, love feasts refers to gatherings of Christians where they ate a meal together. These feasts took place in the early church and most likely included sharing the bread and wine to remember the death of Jesus, which Paul calls “the Lord’s Supper” in 1 Corinthians 11:20. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express some of this information explicitly. Alternate translation: “communal meals with fellow believers”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἑαυτοὺς ποιμαίνοντες
themselves shepherding
Here Jude speaks of the false teachers selfishly taking care of their own needs as if they are shepherds who feed and care for themselves instead of their flocks. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this metaphor with a simile or plainly. Alternate translation: “like shepherds that feed themselves instead of their flocks” or “only caring for themselves”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
νεφέλαι ἄνυδροι ὑπὸ ἀνέμων παραφερόμεναι
clouds waterless by ˱of˲_winds /being/_carried_away
Jude speaks of the false teachers to describe their uselessness. People expect clouds to provide water to grow crops, but waterless clouds disappoint farmers by being blown away by the wind without giving rain. In the same way, false teachers, although they promise many things, are unable to do what they promise. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this metaphor by translating this plainly or turn the metaphor into a simile. Alternate translation: “These false teachers never give what they promise” or “These false teachers disappoint like clouds without water”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ὑπὸ ἀνέμων παραφερόμεναι
by ˱of˲_winds /being/_carried_away
If your language does not use the passive form carried along, you could express this with an active form. Alternate translation: “which the wind carries along”
Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
δένδρα φθινοπωρινὰ ἄκαρπα
trees late_autumn unfruitful
Here Jude again speaks of the false teachers to describe their uselessness. People expect trees in the autumn to provide fruit, but fruitless autumn trees disappoint them. In the same way, false teachers, although they promise many things, are unable to do what they promise. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this metaphor by translating this plainly or turn the metaphor into a simile. Alternate translation: “never giving what they promise” or “like barren fruit trees”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
δὶς ἀποθανόντα ἐκριζωθέντα
twice /having/_died_off /having_been/_uprooted
Here Jude is using the past tense in order to refer to something that will happen in the future. He is doing this to show that the event will certainly happen. If this is not clear in your language, you could use the future tense. Alternate translation: “they will certainly die twice, they will certainly be uprooted”
δὶς ἀποθανόντα ἐκριζωθέντα
twice /having/_died_off /having_been/_uprooted
Here, having died twice could mean: (1) the trees are considered to be dead firstly because they do not produce fruit, but doubly dead because they are uprooted in response to their lack of fruit. Alternate translation: “having died twice by being fruitless and uprooted” (2) the trees, which represent the false teachers, are spiritually dead but will also be physically dead when God kills them. “being spiritually dead and then physically dead when they were uprooted”
Note 9 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐκριζωθέντα
/having_been/_uprooted
Jude describes God’s judgment of these false teachers like trees that have been completely pulled out of the ground by their roots. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state this metaphor plainly. Alternate translation: “having been destroyed”
Note 10 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐκριζωθέντα
/having_been/_uprooted
If your language does not use this passive form, you could this with an active form and say who did the action. Alternate translation: “God uprooted them”
