< 1 Timothy 3 >
1 This is a true saying, If any man desire the office of a Bishop, he desireth a worthie worke.
Na da dafawane sia: dilima sia: sa. Dunu da Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ouligisu hawa: hamomusa: dawa: sea, defea, amo hawa: hamosu da ida: iwane hawa: hamosu.
2 A Bishop therefore must be vnreproueable, the husband of one wife, watching, temperate, modest, harberous, apt to teache,
Be Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ouligisu dunu da ledo hamedei dunu ba: ma: mu. Ea hou da agoane ba: mu. E da uda afadafa lai dunu. E da gebewane, olofosu hamosu dunu. E da ea hou amoma hinawane esala. E da sia: ga gegesu hame dawa: dunu. E da ea diasuga ga misi dunuma aowasu dawa: E da sia: olelesu dawa: dunu.
3 Not giuen to wine, no striker, not giuen to filthy lucre, but gentle, no fighter, not couetous,
E da adini hame ba: su dunu. E da ougi hou hame dawa: be, olofosu amola gebewane hou, dawa: E da muni hame hanai dunu.
4 One that can rule his owne house honestly, hauing children vnder obedience with all honestie.
E da ea uda amola ea mano, ilima ouligisuwane esala.
5 For if any cannot rule his owne house, how shall he care for the Church of God?
Be dunu da ea uda amola mano, ilima ouligisuwane hame esalea, e da habodane Gode Ea fi dunu noga: le ouligima: bela: ?
6 He may not be a yong scholer, lest he being puffed vp fall into the condemnation of the deuill.
Gaheabolo lalegagui dunu hame, be dunu amo ea dafawaneyale dawa: su hou da asigilai dagoi, agoaiwane dunu fawane lama: ne sia: ma. E da gasa fi heda: le, Sa: ida: ne ea hou defele e da se dabe iasu lama: ne fofada: mu, amasa: besa: le, ea dafawaneyale dawa: su hou da asigilai ba: mu da defea.
7 He must also be well reported of, euen of them which are without, lest he fall into rebuke, and the snare of the deuill.
E da dafane Sa: ida: ne amo ea sani amo ganodini dafasa: besa: le, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ouligisu dunu da hou ida: iwane hamonanebeba: le, hame lalegagui dunu ilia da ea hou hahawane ba: mu da defea.
8 Likewise must Deacons be graue, not double tongued, not giuen vnto much wine, neither to filthy lucre,
Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi fidisu dunu (digone) amola, ilia hou da moloidafa amola hadigi ba: mu da defea. Ilia amola adini bagade manu da hamedei. Ilia amola muni hanamu da hamedei.
9 Hauing the mysterie of the faith in pure conscience.
Ilia asigi dawa: su da dodofei dagoiba: le, ilia moloidafa dafawaneyale dawa: su hou lalegagui dagoi ba: mu da defea.
10 And let them first be proued: then let them minister, if they be found blameles.
Dilia amo dunu Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi hawa: hamoma: ne ilegemusa: dawa: sea, hidadea ili hou abodema. Dilia adoba: lalu, noga: i ba: sea, hawa: hamoma: ne ilegema.
11 Likewise their wiues must be honest, not euill speakers, but sober, and faithfull in all things.
Ilia uda amola da uda ida: iwane ba: mu da defea. Ilia udigili amola baligidu sia: mae sia: ne, ilia moloidafa amola gebewane olofosu hou fawane hamoma: mu.
12 Let the Deacons be the husbands of one wife, and such as can rule their children well, and their owne housholdes.
Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi fidisu dunu da uda afadafa fawane lai dunu. E da ea uda amola mano ilima noga: le ouligisu dunu fawane.
13 For they that haue ministred well, get them selues a good degree, and great libertie in the faith, which is in Christ Iesus.
Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi fidisu dunu da ilia hawa: hamosu noga: le hamosea, ilia da Yesu Gelesu Ea hou lalegagui amo eno dunuma mae beda: iwane olelemu dawa: mu. Amasea, dunu eno da ilima nodomu.
14 These things write I vnto thee, trusting to come very shortly vnto thee.
Na da wali dima meloa dedesa. Be na da hedolo dima ba: la masunu hanai gala.
15 But if I tary long, that thou maist yet know, how thou oughtest to behaue thy self in ye house of God, which is the Church of the liuing God, the pillar and ground of trueth.
Be na da hedolo hame doaga: sea, amo meloa dedei da ninia Gode Ea fi dunu ninia hou Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi amo ganodini hamonana olelesa. Amo Gode Ea fi da ninia Gode Esala Ea Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi. Gode Ea Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi da moloidafa hou amo ea bai diala.
16 And without controuersie, great is the mysterie of godlinesse, which is, God is manifested in the flesh, iustified in the Spirit, seene of Angels, preached vnto the Gentiles, beleeued on in the world, and receiued vp in glorie.
Dunu eno da ninia dafawaneyale dawa: su hou da ogogosu, amo sia: mu da hamedei. Ninia Godema dawa: su hou da wamolegei liligi agoane. “E da osobo bagade dunu ilia da: i lale, osobo bagadega misi. Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da Ea hou da dafawane olelei. A: igele dunu amola da amo Dunu ba: i. Eno dunu ilia da Ea hou amo dunu fifi asi gala ilima olelei. Osobo bagade ganodini, dunu bagohame Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: i. Amola Gode da amo Dunu Hebene sogega oule gadoi.”
