Tito 1
1 Une che Paolo, jundi jwakutumichila jwa Akunnungu ni nduna jwa Che Yesu Kilisito, ngunnembela chikalata chi mwe che Tito. Uneji najichikwe kwalongosya ŵandu ŵasagulikwe ni Akunnungu kuti ŵakulupilile ni kuumanyilila usyenesyene ni kutama yaikuti pakwanonyelesya Akunnungu.
PAULOS, a servant of Aloha, and apostle of Jeshu Meshiha, for the faith of the chosen ones of Aloha, and the knowledge of the truth which is in the fear of Aloha;
2 Chikulupi ni umanyilisi wa usyene wu ikutupa chilolelo cha umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Akunnungu ŵangakombola kusala ya unami, ŵatupele chilanga cho chikanaŵe kugumbikwa chilambo. (aiōnios g166)
unto the hope of eternal life, which Aloha the true counselled before the times of the ages, (aiōnios g166)
3 Ŵaliunukwile liloŵe lyakwe pa katema kakwe. Une napegwilwe utenga wo kwa lilajisyo lya Akunnungu Nkulupusyo jwetu juŵangulupilile kuti naulalichile kwa ŵandu.
and his word hath revealed in his time by our preaching, which was confided to me by the command of Aloha our Saviour:
4 Chikalata chi ngunnembela mmwe che Tito, mwanangu jwa usyenesyene jutukukamulangana mu chikulupi chimo. Ngunsachila umbone ni chitendewele kutyochela kwa Akunnungu Atati ni Che Yesu Kilisito nkulupusyo jwetu.
To Titos, my true son in the common faith. Grace and peace from Aloha the Father and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha our Saviour.
5 Nanlesile ku Kilete kuti nkombole kuikolosya yanayose yaisigalile ni kwaŵika achakulu ŵa mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito mu musi wauli wose mpela indite kunnajisya,
For this I left thee in Kreta, that those things which were wanting thou mayest rectify, and constitute presbyters in every city as I commanded thee.
6 chilongola jwa mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito akusachilwa kuŵa mundu jwangali magambo gagali gose, ni jwali ni jwankongwe jumo, ni ŵanache ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni ŵangaŵechetelwa nkati wende wangalumbana atamuno ungapilikanichisya.
Him who is without blame, and is the husband of one wife, and who hath believing children, who are not vicious nor addicted to intemperance.
7 Pakuŵa jwakuujimilila mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito akusachilwa kuŵa mundu jwangali magambo gagali gose, ligongo jwelejo ali jwakwimilila masengo ga Akunnungu. Ngakusachilwa kuŵa mundu jwa chibuli atamuno jwakalipa atamuno jwakolelwa atamuno jwakuputa atamuno kuŵa mundu jwakunonyelwa nnope mbiya.
For a presbyter is bound to be without blame, as the steward of Aloha; he shall not be led by the will of self, nor be irascible, nor a transgressor over wine, neither shall his hand be hasty to strike, nor shall he be a lover of sordid gains.
8 Nambo ikuŵajilwa aŵe jwakunonyelwa kwapochela achalendo ni jwakunonyelwa ni indu yambone ni jwakulitulusya ni jwakupanganya yaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu ni jwanswela ni jwakukombola kulilongosya nsyene.
But he shall be a lover of guests, and a lover of the good, and be chaste, and equitable, and holy, and withholding himself from lusts;
9 Akusachilwa kulikamulisya liloŵe lyakukulupilichika mpela yaitite kujiganyikwa, kuti akombole kwalimbisya mitima ŵandu ŵane kwa majiganyo ga usyene ni kwalosya ileŵo yao ŵandu ŵakugakana majiganyo go.
and careful over the doctrine of the word of faith, that he may be able also to comfort by his teaching the healthy, and to reprove those who are contentious.
10 Pakuŵa kwana ŵandu ŵajinji nnopennope ŵaali mu mpingo wa Ŵayahudi ŵaŵagalawiche ni kunkulupilila Kilisito, ŵele ŵakukanila kupilikana, akuŵecheta wamba ni akwalyungasya ŵandu ŵane.
For there are many who are not in subjection, and whose words are vain, and make the minds of men to err, especially those of the circumcision,
11 Ŵele ŵandu akanyichikwe kuŵecheta, pakuŵa akwatindiganya ŵandu ŵa majumba gamajinji kwa kwiganya indu yangaŵajilwa kwiganya, akutenda yele kwa nningwa wangalumbana wa kupatila mbiya.
those, whose mouths it behoves to stop. Many houses they destroy, and teach what they ought not, for the sake of filthy gain.
12 Namose jumo jwa ŵakulondola ŵao achinsyene jwali Mkilete ŵatite, “Ŵakilete ali ŵa unami moŵa gose, ali mpela ijama yakusakala, ŵaulesi ni ŵakunyela.”
One of them, a prophet of their own, hath said, The sons of Kreta are always liars, evil beasts, and lazy bellies.
13 Umboni wu uli wausyenesyene. Kwa ligongo lyo, mwajamuche kwa kalipa kuti akole chikulupi chisyene.
And true is this testimony. Wherefore reprove them severely, that they may be sound in the faith,
14 Mwajiganye aleche kupilikanila ngano sya unami sya Ŵayahudi namose malajisyo ga ŵandu ŵakuukanila usyene.
nor cast themselves to the fables of the Jihudoyee, and to the mandates of men who hate the truth.
15 Kila chindu chili cheswejele kwa ŵandu ŵaswejele paujo pa Akunnungu, nambo ngapagwa chindu chachili cheswela kwa ŵandu ŵangalumbana ni ŵangakwakulupilila Akunnungu, pakuwa nganisyo syao ni ntima wa kukumbuchila kuitenda indu yambone ijonasiche.
For every thing is pure to the pure; but to those who are polluted and unfaithful nothing is pure; but their understanding and their conscience are polluted.
16 Ŵandu ŵa akwitichisya kuti akwamanyilila Akunnungu, nambo mu ipanganyo yao akwakana. Ŵandu wo ali ŵakuchima ni ŵakutindiganya tindiganya, namose ngakukombola kupanganya masengo gagali gose gambone.
And they profess to know Aloha, but in their works they deny him, and are abominable and disobedient, and reprobate to every good work.
