Titus 3
1 Admonish them to be subject to princes and powers, to obey at a word, to be ready to every good work.
Vahupilise kuli nera kuva yendisi ni mivuso, kuva zuwa, kuli tukiseza kupanga mitendo milotu.
2 To speak evil of no man, not to be litigious, but gentle: shewing all mildness towards all men.
Uva hupilise kusa nyefula zumwi, vasiye i nkani, kuzuminina vamwi kuva ni zira zavo, ni kuvonisa chishemo ku vonse vantu.
3 For we ourselves also were some time unwise, incredulous, erring, slaves to divers desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
Kakuti hamwi naswe kena tuvali ku nahana zilotu ni kusechilira. Tuvali kuchengetwe ni kuva muzitamo ze minyaka isiyana ni ntakazo. Tuvali kuhala muvuvi ni muna. Tuvali ve zitoyo ni kuli toya zumwi ku zumwi.
4 But when the goodness and kindness of God our Saviour appeared:
Kono cwale kushiyama kwe Ireza muhazi wetu ni lato lyakwe kuvantu livavoneki,
5 Not by the works of justice, which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us, by the laver of regeneration, and renovation of the Holy Ghost;
kena ivali che mitendo ya kushiyama itu va pangi, kono kechishemo chakwe kuti ava tu hazi. A vatuhazi che kushajiwa ko kuzalwa chincha ni kusandulwa vuhya cho Luhuho lu Jolola.
6 Whom he hath poured forth upon us abundantly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour:
Ireza cho vufumu ava chunki Luhuho lu Jolola hentu cha Muhazi Jesu Keresite.
7 That, being justified by his grace, we may be heirs, according to hope of life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
Ava pangi inchi ili kuti, kuwana kunyemunwa ke chishemo, katu wole kuva vayoli ve sepo yo vuhalo vusa mani. (aiōnios g166)
8 It is a faithful saying: and these things I will have thee affirm constantly: that they, who believe in God, may be careful to excel in good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
Iri ñusa lisepahala luli. Nisaka kuti u wambe cha vundume kuamana nezi zintu, iri kuti avo va sepete Ireza vave ne sepo hami tendo mirotu yava viki havusu bwavo. Inzi zintu zi lotu ni kuvozekeza ku vonse vantu.
9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law. For they are unprofitable and vain.
Kono usiye inkani zo vuholo ni masika ni kukanana ni kuzeka kuamana ni mulao. Izo zintu kazina intuso mi kakwina chizi vozekeza.
10 A man that is a heretic, after the first and second admonition, avoid:
Ukanine yense yo leta i kauhano mukati kenu, kuzwa ha yonke kamba zo vere inkalimero,
11 Knowing that he, that is such an one, is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned by his own judgment.
mi wizive kuti uzo yenke chava sanduki kwi nzira i shiyeme mi u panga chivi ni kuli atula iye mwine.
12 When I shall send to thee Artemas or Tychicus, make haste to come unto me to Nicopolis. For there I have determined to winter.
Hani tuma Atemasi kamba Tayichisi kwenu, uhwere ni kwiza kwangu kwa Nikopolisi, uko kuni vali keteri kuke kala hamaliha.
13 Send forward Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollo, with care, that nothing be wanting to them.
U hwere ni ku tuma Zenasi, i chaziva mu mulao, ni Apolosi, cho mukwa ukuta kuti kanji vavuli chimwi.
14 And let our men also learn to excel in good works for necessary uses: that they be not unfruitful.
Vantu ventu vaswanera kulituta kuva muzintu ze mitendo milotu isaka zintu haho iri kuti kanji ve kali nivasena misero.
15 All that are with me salute thee: salute them that love us in the faith. The grace of God be with you all. Amen.
Vonse avo vena name vaku lumerisa. Ulumerise avo va tusaka mwi tumero. Chishemo chive nanwe mwenze.
