Titus 3
1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
Chetara ndị nke gị ka ha doo onwe ha nʼokpuru ndịisi na ndị ọchịchị, ka ha rubere ha isi, dịkwa njikere ịrụ ọrụ ọma ọbụla.
2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.
Gwa ha ka ha ghara ikwulu onye ọbụla, ka ha gharakwa ịlụ ọgụ, kama, ka ha bụrụ enyi mmadụ niile, na-egosikwa ịdị nwayọọ ha nʼebe mmadụ niile nọ.
3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
Nʼihi na mbụ, anyị onwe anyị bụ ndị nzuzu, ndị na-enupu isi, na ndị na-enweghị uche. Anyị bụ ohu agụụ ihe ọjọọ, na ihe ụtọ dị iche iche. Anyị biri ndụ obi ọjọọ na ekworo, na ịkpọrịta onwe anyị asị.
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,
Ma mgbe obiọma na ịhụnanya Chineke Onye nzọpụta anyị pụtara ihe,
5 not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
ọ zọpụtara anyị, ma ọ bụghị nʼihi ezi ihe ndị anyị mere, kama ọ bụ site nʼebere ya. Ọ zọpụtara anyị site na nsacha nke ịmụ ọzọ na nnwogharị nke Mmụọ Nsọ,
6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
onye ọ wụsara anyị nʼuju site nʼOnye nzọpụta anyị bụ Jisọs Kraịst,
7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of the consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
ka ọ bụrụ na ebe e sitere nʼamara gụọ anyị dịka ndị ezi omume, anyị ga-abụ ndị nketa, ndị nwere olileanya ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
8 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;
Okwu a kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, ọ ga-amasị m ma i kwusie ihe ndị a ike, ka ndị kweere na Chineke, lezie anya nʼịrụ ezi ọrụ. Ihe ndị a dị mma na-abakwara mmadụ uru.
9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Ma zere ịrụ ụka nzuzu na ịgụ agbụrụ ọmụmụ, esemokwu niile, na ọgụ niile ndị mmadụ na-alụ banyere iwu. Ihe ndị a niile abaghị uru ọbụla, ha bụ ihe efu.
10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,
Gbasara onye na-akpa oke, ị dụchaa ya ọdụ ihe dịka otu ugboro maọbụ abụọ, leghara ya anya.
11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
Ebe ị ma na onye dị otu a bụ onye ndahie na onye ajọọ omume, o jirila aka ya maa onwe ya ikpe.
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
Ana m akwado izitere gị Atemas maọbụ Taịkikọs. Gbalịa bịakwute m na Nikopolis, maka nʼebe ahụ ka m kpebiri ịnọ nʼoge oyi.
13 Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
Gbaa mbọ zipụ Zenas bụ onye ọkaikpe, na Apọlọs, ngwangwa nʼije ha. Hụkwa na ha ji ihe niile dị ha mkpa.
14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
Nʼihi na ọ dị mkpa ka ndị anyị mụta inyere ndị niile chọrọ enyemaka ha aka. Ọ bụ nke a ga-eme ka ha bụrụ ndị na-amị mkpụrụ.
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
Ndị niile mụ na ha nọ nʼebe a na-ekele gị. Kelekwara anyị ndị niile hụrụ anyị nʼanya nʼime okwukwe. Ka amara dịnyere unu niile.
