< Titus 3 >
1 Pvt them in remembrance that they bee subiect to the Principalities and powers, and that they bee obedient, and ready to euery good woorke,
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 That they speake euill of no man, that they be no fighters, but soft, shewing all meekenesse vnto 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 wee our selues also were in times past vnwise, disobedient, deceiued, seruing the lustes and diuers pleasures, liuing in maliciousnes and enuie, hatefull, 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 that bountifulnesse and that loue of God our Sauiour toward man appeared,
Ma mgbe obiọma na ịhụnanya Chineke Onye nzọpụta anyị pụtara ihe,
5 Not by the woorkes of righteousnesse, which we had done, but according to his mercie he saued vs, by the washing of the newe birth, and the renewing of the holy Ghost,
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 Which he shed on vs aboundantly, through Iesus Christ our Sauiour,
onye ọ wụsara anyị nʼuju site nʼOnye nzọpụta anyị bụ Jisọs Kraịst,
7 That we, being iustified by his grace, should be made heires according to the hope of eternall life. (aiōnios )
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 )
8 This is a true saying, and these thinges I will thou shouldest affirme, that they which haue beleeued God, might be carefull to shewe foorth good woorkes. These things are good and profitable vnto 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 stay foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and brawlings about the Lawe: for they are vnprofitable and vaine.
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 Reiect him that is an heretike, after once or twise admonition,
Gbasara onye na-akpa oke, ị dụchaa ya ọdụ ihe dịka otu ugboro maọbụ abụọ, leghara ya anya.
11 Knowing that hee that is such, is peruerted, and sinneth, being damned of his owne selfe.
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 shall send Artemas vnto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to mee vnto Nicopolis: for I haue determined there to winter.
Ana m akwado izitere gị Atemas maọbụ Taịkikọs. Gbalịa bịakwute m na Nikopolis, maka nʼebe ahụ ka m kpebiri ịnọ nʼoge oyi.
13 Bring Zenas the expounder of the Lawe, and Apollos on their iourney diligently, that they lacke nothing.
Gbaa mbọ zipụ Zenas bụ onye ọkaikpe, na Apọlọs, ngwangwa nʼije ha. Hụkwa na ha ji ihe niile dị ha mkpa.
14 And let ours also learne to shewe foorth good woorkes for necessary vses, that they be not vnfruitfull.
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 that are with mee, salute thee. Greete them that loue vs in the faith. Grace bee with you all, Amen. ‘To Titus, elect the first bishoppe of the Church of the Cretians, written from Nicopolis in Macedonia.’
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.
