< Titus 3 >

1 Make clear to them that they are to put themselves under rulers and authorities, to do what they are ordered, to be ready for every good work,
ܘܗܘܝܬ ܡܥܗܕ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܠܪܫܐ ܘܠܫܠܝܛܢܐ ܢܫܬܡܥܘܢ ܘܢܫܬܥܒܕܘܢ ܘܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܥܬܝܕܝܢ ܠܟܠ ܥܒܕ ܛܒ
2 To say no evil of any man, not to be fighters, to give way to others, to be gentle in behaviour to all men.
ܘܥܠ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܢܓܕܦܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܬܟܬܫܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܟܝܟܝܢ ܘܒܟܠܡܕܡ ܢܚܘܘܢ ܒܤܝܡܘܬܗܘܢ ܠܘܬ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ
3 For in the past we were foolish, hard in heart, turned from the true way, servants of evil desires and pleasures, living in bad feeling and envy, hated and hating one another.
ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܩܕܝܡ ܕܠܐ ܪܥܝܢܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܕܠܐ ܦܝܤܐ ܘܛܥܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܡܫܥܒܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܠܐܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܡܫܚܠܦܬܐ ܘܒܒܝܫܘܬܐ ܘܒܚܤܡܐ ܡܬܗܦܟܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܤܢܝܐܝܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܐܦ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܤܢܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ
4 But when the mercy of God our Saviour, and his love to man was seen,
ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܓܠܝܬ ܒܤܝܡܘܬܗ ܘܡܪܚܡܢܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܚܝܢܢ
5 Not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but in the measure of his mercy, he gave us salvation, through the washing of the new birth and the giving of new life in the Holy Spirit,
ܠܐ ܒܥܒܕܐ ܕܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܥܒܕܢ ܐܠܐ ܒܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܕܝܠܗ ܐܚܝܢ ܒܤܚܬܐ ܕܡܘܠܕܐ ܕܡܢ ܕܪܝܫ ܘܒܚܘܕܬܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ
6 Which he gave us freely through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
ܗܝ ܕܐܫܕ ܥܠܝܢ ܥܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܒܝܕ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܚܝܢܢ
7 So that, having been given righteousness through grace, we might have a part in the heritage, the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
ܕܒܛܝܒܘܬܗ ܢܙܕܕܩ ܘܢܗܘܐ ܝܪܬܐ ܒܤܒܪܐ ܒܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōnios g166)
8 This is a true saying; and it is my desire that you may give certain witness about these things, so that those who have had faith in God may give attention to good works. These things are good and of profit to men;
ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܘܒܗܠܝܢ ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܐܢܬ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܫܪܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܬܒܛܠ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܦܠܚ ܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܝܡܢܘ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܛܒܢ ܘܡܘܬܪܢ ܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ
9 But have nothing to do with foolish questionings, and lists of generations, and fights and arguments about the law; for they are of no profit and foolish.
ܡܢ ܒܥܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܤܟܠܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܬܫܥܝܬܐ ܕܫܪܒܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܚܪܝܢܐ ܘܡܢ ܬܟܬܘܫܐ ܕܤܦܪܐ ܐܫܬܐܠ ܝܘܬܪܢ ܓܝܪ ܠܝܬ ܒܗܝܢ ܘܤܪܝܩܢ ܐܢܝܢ
10 A man whose opinions are not those of the church, after a first and second protest, is to be kept out of your society;
ܡܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܗܪܤܝܘܛܐ ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܚܕܐ ܙܒܢ ܘܬܪܬܝܢ ܕܡܪܬܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܗ ܐܫܬܐܠ
11 Clearly he is in error and a sinner, being self-judged.
ܘܗܘܝܬ ܝܕܥ ܕܡܢ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܗܘ ܡܥܩܡ ܗܘ ܘܚܛܐ ܘܗܘ ܚܝܒ ܢܦܫܗ
12 When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis: for it is my purpose to be there for the winter.
ܡܐ ܕܫܕܪܬ ܠܘܬܟ ܠܐܪܛܡܐ ܐܘ ܠܛܘܟܝܩܘܤ ܢܬܒܛܠ ܠܟ ܕܬܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܠܢܝܩܦܘܠܝܤ ܬܡܢ ܓܝܪ ܤܡܬ ܒܪܥܝܢܝ ܕܐܤܬܐ
13 Send Zenas, the man of law, and Apollos on their journey with all care, so that they may be in need of nothing.
ܥܠ ܙܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܤܦܪܐ ܘܥܠ ܐܦܠܘ ܢܬܒܛܠ ܠܟ ܕܬܠܘܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܫܦܝܪ ܕܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܢܚܤܪ ܠܗܘܢ
14 And let our people go on with good works for necessary purposes, so that they may not be without fruit.
ܘܢܐܠܦܘܢ ܐܦ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܝܠܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܦܠܚܝܢ ܥܒܕܐ ܛܒܐ ܒܨܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܨܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܦܐܪܐ
15 All who are with me send you their love. Give our love to our friends in the faith. Grace be with you all.
ܫܐܠܝܢ ܒܫܠܡܟ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܥܡܝ ܐܢܘܢ ܫܐܠ ܒܫܠܡܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܪܚܡܝܢ ܠܢ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܥܡ ܟܠܟܘܢ ܐܡܝܢ
