< Tito 3 >
1 Mwakumbusye ŵandu kulitulusya paujo pa ilongola ni ŵakutawala ni ulamusi, ŵapilikanichisye ni kuŵa chile kupanganya ipanganyo yambone.
Remind them to be subject to principalities and authorities, to obey rule, unto every good work to be ready,
2 Mwasalile akasantukana mundu jwalijose, anaŵe ŵaumani, aŵeje ŵambone achilosyaga kulitulusya katema kose kwa ŵandu wose.
of no one to speak evil, not to be quarrelsome — gentle, showing all meekness to 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 were once — also we — thoughtless, disobedient, led astray, serving desires and pleasures manifold, in malice and envy living, odious — hating one another;
4 Nambo pawawoneche umbone ni unonyelo wa Akunnungu Nkulupusyo jwetu,
and when the kindness and the love to men of God our Saviour did appear
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 that [are] in righteousness that we did but according to His kindness, ) He did save us, through a bathing of regeneration, and a renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 Pakuŵa Akunnungu ŵatujitilile kwa winji Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kwa litala li Che Yesu Kilisito Nkulupusyo jwetu,
which He poured upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour,
7 kuti kwa umbone wao tukombole kuŵalanjikwa ŵambone ni kuukola umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi utukuulolela. (aiōnios )
that having been declared righteous by His grace, heirs we may become according to the hope of life age-during. (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.
Stedfast [is] the word; and concerning these things I counsel thee to affirm fully, that they may be thoughtful, to be leading in good works — who have believed God; these are the good and profitable things 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.
and foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about law, stand away from — for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 Mundu jwakwikanawo kulekangana, pakumala kunjamuka kaandanda ni kaaŵili, munnecheje.
A sectarian man, after a first and second admonition be rejecting,
11 Nipele nkumanyilila kuti mundu jwati iyoyo alyungasiche, ni kukola sambi, ni sambi syakwe sikunlamula nsyene.
having known that he hath been subverted who [is] such, and doth sin, being 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 unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis, for there to winter I have determined.
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.
Zenas the lawyer and Apollos bring diligently on their way, that nothing to them may be lacking,
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 them learn — ours also — to be leading in good works to the necessary uses, 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.
Salute thee do all those with me; salute those loving us in faith; the grace [is] with you all!
