< Tito 2 >
1 Nambo mmwejo njiganye majiganyo ga usyene.
But speak thou the things that belong to wholesome doctrine.
2 Mwasalile achalume ŵachekulwipe aŵe ŵakukombola kulilongosya achinsyene ni ŵakuchimbichikwa, ni ŵakulitulusya, ni ŵautindimisyo mu chikulupi ni mu unonyelo ni mu upililiu.
And teach the older men to be watchful in their minds, and to be sober, and to be pure, and to be sound in the faith, and in love and in patience.
3 Ni achakongwe ŵachekulwipe iyoyo peyo mwasalile atameje mu utame wa kwajogopa Akunnungu. Analambusye atamuno akaŵa achikapolo ŵakukolelwa divai, nambo ŵakwiganya yaili yambone pe,
And so also the elder women, that they be in behavior as becometh the fear of God; and not to be slanderers; and not to be addicted to much wine; and to be inculcators of good things,
4 kuti ŵajiganye achiŵali kwanonyela achiŵankwawo ni kwanonyela ŵanache ŵao,
making the younger women to be modest, to love their husbands and their children,
5 ni ŵakukombola kulilongosya achinsyene ni ŵaswejele, ŵakugagosa yambone majumba gao ni ŵa ntima wambone ni ŵakwapilikanichisya achiŵankwawo kuti Liloŵe lya Akunnungu likasatukanwa ni ŵandu.
to be chaste and holy, and to take good care of their households, and to be obedient to their husbands; so that no one may reproach the word of God.
6 Ni iyoyo achachanda mwalimbisye kuti akombole kulilongosya achinsyene.
And likewise exhort young men to be sober.
7 Mu indu yose mwasyene mme chisyasyo cha kupanganya yambone nchilosyaga usyene ni mmajiganyo genu nlosye kuti mmwe mwasyene nkugakulupilila ni kugakuya.
And in every thing show thyself a pattern, as to all good works: and in thy teaching, let thy discourse be healthful,
8 Maloŵe gankuŵecheta ganaŵe ni chileŵo chachilichose kuti ŵammagongo ŵenu jatende soni, pakuŵa nganakola chachilichose changalumbana chakusala nkati ngani syetu.
such as is sober and uncorrupt; and let no one despise it: so that he who riseth up against us, may be ashamed, seeing he can say nothing odious against us.
9 Achikapolo ŵapilikanichisye achakulu ŵao ŵa pachilambo ni kwanonyelesya mu yanayose. Alisepusye kwangangana nawo,
Let servants obey their masters in every thing, and strive to please them, and not contradict, nor pilfer;
10 pane kwajiŵa indu yao. Nambo alosye katema kose kuti ali ŵa ntima wambone ni ŵakukulupichika, kuti majiganyo ga Akunnungu Nkulupusyo jwetu galoleche yambone mu yose.
but let them manifest that their fidelity, in all respects, is good: so that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Life-giver, in all things.
11 Pakuŵa umbone wa Akunnungu waukwikanawo ukulupusyo kwa ŵandu wose uwunukulikwe.
For the all-vivifying grace of God, is revealed to all men;
12 Nombewo ukutujiganya kuti tuleche chigongomalo ni tama syangalumbana sya pachilambo pano, tutameje kwa kulilongosya achinsyene ni kuŵa ŵambone paujo pa Akunnungu ni kutama kwa kwanonyelesya Akunnungu mu chilambo chino, (aiōn )
and it teacheth us, to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and to live in this world in sobriety, and in uprightness, and in the fear of God, (aiōn )
13 tuchilindililaga lyuŵa lya upile lyatukulilolela, pelepo chiutyochele ukulu wa Akunnungu Ŵakulu ni Nkulupusyo jwetu Che Yesu Kilisito.
looking for the blessed hope, and the manifestation of the glory of the great God, and our Life-giver, Jesus the Messiah;
14 Jwelejo ŵalityosisye nsyene kwa liwamba lyetu uwe kuti atuwombole mu ileŵo yose ni kutuswejesya kuti tuŵe ŵakwe asyene, ŵandu ŵaali ni lung'wanu lwakupanganya ipanganyo yambone.
who gave himself for us, that he might recover us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a new people, who are zealous in good works.
15 Sambano mwajiganye indu yi kwa ulamusi wose, mwalimbisye mitima ni kwajamuka. Mundu jwalijose anannyosye.
These things speak thou, and exhort, and inculcate, with all authority; and let no one despise thee.
