Titus 3
1 Remind the believers to submit to rulers and authorities, to be obedient and ready for every good work,
Ka tuna wa mutane su zama masu biyayya ga masu mulki da kuma hukumomi, su zama masu biyayya suna kuma a shirye su yi kowane abin da yake mai kyau,
2 to malign no one, and to be peaceable and gentle, showing full consideration to everyone.
kada su zama masu ɓata sunan kowa, su zama masu salama da kulawa, su kuma zama masu matuƙar tawali’u ga dukan mutane.
3 For at one time we too were foolish, disobedient, misled, and enslaved to all sorts of desires and pleasures—living in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another.
A wani lokaci can baya mu ma wawaye ne, marasa biyayya, aka ruɗe mu, sha’awace-sha’awace da kwaɗayi iri-iri suka daure mu, muka yi zaman ƙiyayya da kishi, aka ƙi mu, mu kuma muka ƙi juna.
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared,
Amma da alheri da kuma ƙaunar Allah Mai Cetonmu suka bayyana,
5 He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of new birth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
sai ya cece mu, ba saboda abubuwan adalcin da muka aikata ba, sai dai saboda jinƙansa. Ya cece mu ta wurin wankan nan na sāke haihuwa da kuma sabuntawan nan ta Ruhu Mai Tsarki,
6 This is the Spirit He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
wanda ya zubo mana a yalwace ta wurin Yesu Kiristi Mai Cetonmu,
7 so that, having been justified by His grace, we would become heirs with the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
wannan fa domin an kuɓutar da mu ne ta wurin alherinsa, don mu zama magāda masu begen ga rai madawwami. (aiōnios g166)
8 This saying is trustworthy. And I want you to emphasize these things, so that those who have believed God will take care to devote themselves to good deeds. These things are excellent and profitable for the people.
Wannan magana tabbatacciya ce, ina kuma so ka nanata waɗannan abubuwa ƙwarai, domin waɗanda suka dogara ga Allah su himmantu ga aiki mai kyau. Waɗannan abubuwa suna da kyau sosai suna kuma da amfani ga kowane mutum.
9 But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, arguments, and quarrels about the law, because these things are pointless and worthless.
Amma ka guji jayayyar banza da ƙididdigar asali da gardandami da faɗace-faɗace game da Doka, gama ba su da riba kuma aikin banza ne.
10 Reject a divisive man after a first and second admonition,
Ka gargaɗe mutumin da yake kawo tsattsaguwa sau ɗaya, ka kuma gargaɗe shi sau na biyu. Bayan haka, kada wani abu yă haɗa ka da shi.
11 knowing that such a man is corrupt and sinful; he is self-condemned.
Ka dai san cewa irin mutumin nan ya taurare kuma mai zunubi ne; ya yanke wa kansa hukunci.
12 As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis, because I have decided to winter there.
Da zarar na aika Artemas ko Tikikus zuwa wurinka, sai ka yi iyakacin ƙoƙarinka ka zo wurina a Nikofolis, domin na yanke shawara in ci damina a can.
13 Do your best to equip Zenas the lawyer and Apollos, so that they will have everything they need.
Ka yi iyakacin ƙoƙarinka ka taimaki Zenas lauyan nan da Afollos a hanyarsu ka kuma tabbata ba su rasa kome ba.
14 And our people must also learn to devote themselves to good works in order to meet the pressing needs of others, so that they will not be unfruitful.
Dole mutanenmu su koyi ba da kansu ga aikata abin da yake nagari, domin su iya biyan bukatunsu na yau da kullum kada kuma su yi rayuwar marar amfani.
15 All who are with me send you greetings. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with all of you.
Dukan waɗanda suke tare da ni suna gaishe ka. Ka gaggai mini da masoyanmu, masu bangaskiya. Alheri yă kasance tare da ku duka.
