< Tito 3 >
1 Mwakumbusye ŵandu kulitulusya paujo pa ilongola ni ŵakutawala ni ulamusi, ŵapilikanichisye ni kuŵa chile kupanganya ipanganyo yambone.
And admonish them to be submissive and obedient to princes and potentates; and that they be ready for every good work;
2 Mwasalile akasantukana mundu jwalijose, anaŵe ŵaumani, aŵeje ŵambone achilosyaga kulitulusya katema kose kwa ŵandu wose.
and that they speak ill of no man; that they be not contentious, but mild; and that in every thing they manifest benignity towards all men.
3 Pakuŵa nowe ŵakwe kalakala ko twaliji ŵakuloŵela, ŵakukanila ni ŵakulyungasika. Twaliji achikapolo ŵa tama syangalumbana ni kulinonyelesya kwa pachilambo. Twatemi mu chigongomalo ni kukolelana wiu, ŵandu ŵatuchimile ni uweji twachimile ŵanyawo.
For we also were formerly reckless, and disobedient, and erring, and serving divers lusts, and living in malice and envy, and were hateful and also hating one another.
4 Nambo pawawoneche umbone ni unonyelo wa Akunnungu Nkulupusyo jwetu,
But when the kindness and compassion of God our Life-giver was revealed,
5 ŵatukulupwisye uweji, ngaŵa kwa ligongo lya chindu chachilichose chambone chitutesile uwe, nambo kwa ligongo lya chanasa chao. ŵatujosisye sambi syetu ni kwa litala lya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jwatutesile tupagwe kaaŵili ni kuŵa ni utame wa sambano.
not by works of righteousness which we had done, but according to his mercy, he vivified us, by the washing of the new birth, and by the renovation of the Holy Spirit,
6 Pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵatujitilile kwa winji Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito Nkulupusyo jwetu,
which he shed on us abundantly, by Jesus the Messiah our Life-giver:
7 kuti kwa umbone wao tukombole kuŵalanjikwa ŵambone ni kuukola umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi utukuulolela. (aiōnios )
that we might be justified by his grace, and become heirs in the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios )
8 Liloŵe li lili lya usyene. Ngusaka nsale chindu chi kwakulimbila, kuti ŵandu ŵaŵakulupilile Akunnungu, akumbuchile kulimbila mu ipanganyo yambone. Chelecho chili chambone ni chakwakamuchisya ŵandu.
Faithful is the word: and in these things, I would have thee also establish them; so that they, who have believed in God, may be careful to cultivate good works: these are the things, which are good, and profitable to men.
9 Nambo nlisepusye ni mausyano ga kuloŵela, ni kugamanya meena ga ngosyo ngano ni kulipulana pamo ni makani gankati Malajisyo, pakuŵa indu yo ngaŵa chindu kwa Akunnungu ni yangalimate.
But foolish questions, and stories of genealogies, and the disputes and contests of the scribes, avoid: for there is no profit in them, and they are vain.
10 Mundu jwakwikanawo kulekangana, pakumala kunjamuka kaandanda ni kaaŵili, munnecheje.
An heretical man, after thou hast instructed him once and again, avoid:
11 Nipele nkumanyilila kuti mundu jwati iyoyo alyungasiche, ni kukola sambi, ni sambi syakwe sikunlamula nsyene.
and know thou, that such a man is perverse, and sinful, and self-condemned.
12 Pachinannajisye che Atema pane che Tukiko kukwenu njanguye kwika ku Nikapoli kukuunola une pakuŵa ngusaka ndame kweleko katema kambepo.
When I shall send Artemas to thee, or Tychicus, strive thou to come to me at Nicopolis; for I have purposed to winter there.
13 Ntende inkuti pakukombola munkamuchisye che Sena, mundu jwakugamanyilila malajisyo pamo ni che Apolo kuti akombole kuutanda ulendo wao, nipele nnole kuti anasoŵekwe ni chindu chachilichose chakusaka mu ulendo wao.
As for Zenas the scribe, and Apollos, endeavor to help them well on their way, that they may want nothing.
14 Ikusachilwa ŵandu ŵetu alijiganye kulimbichila kupanganya masengo gambone, kuti akombole kwakamuchisya ŵandu ŵakusoŵekwa ni indu ya kila lyuŵa ni anatame utame wangaukwapokasya.
And let our people learn also to perform good works, on occasions of emergency, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 Ŵandu wose ŵaali pamo ni une akunkomasya. Mungomachisye mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakutunonyela, ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito. Umbone wa Akunnungu utame ni ŵanyamwe wose.
All they that are with me salute thee. Salute all them who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
