Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
PAULUJ ladun Kot o wanporon en Iejuj Krijtuj amen, duen pojon en me pilipildar en Kot akan o duen erpit en melel on pai ren Kot;
2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; (aiōnios g166)
O kaporoporeki maur joutuk, me Kot jo likam inaukidar mon tapin kaua. (aiōnios g166)
3 But has in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior;
A ni a anjau a kotin kajanjaledar a majan ki padak, me ko on ia, duen kujoned en Kot atail Jaunkamaur.
4 To Titus, my own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
On Tituj nai jeri melel ni ata pojon ta ieu: Mak o popol jan ren Kot Jam o Krijtuj Iejuj atail Jaunkamaur en mi re om!
5 For this cause left I you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed you:
let karepen ai kamodan uk edi Kreta, pwe koe en kapwaiada, me kaikenta wiauier o kajapwilada jaunkoa kan ni kanim karoj, due i kakaliki on uk.
6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
Jaunkoa amen en indand mau, o warok en li ta men, o me na jeri kan pojonla, o jo kaindandeki, me re kamom de jopeik.
7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;
Pwe pijop en punla, duen jaunkoa en Kot amen, der katiwo, der purianikom, der kamom wain, der pamara, der norok moni.
8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
A ren apwali men kairu o pok on me mau, o kanonama, o pun, o jaraui, o makelekel.
9 Holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the disputers.
Kolekoleta majan, me udan pun o koiok on padak, pwen kak on panauiki padak en kamaur o kapun on me katiwo kan.
10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
Pwe ir me toto me malaun o kapei lokaia o me kaweid japun, iet eten, kijan men jirkomjaij.
11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they should not, for filthy lucre’s sake.
Me mau on au ar en pinapinla, pwe re kin kawukila toun im toto, o me kin padapadaki, me jota mau, pweki moni.
12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
Amen irail, pein arail jaukop amen inda: Men Kreta me kalap likam, man jued o laualo, nain mana.
13 This witness is true. Why rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
Kadede pot et me melel. Ari, i me koe en kapun kelail on irail, pwe ren kelailada ni pojon.
14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
O ren der injenoki en Juj oko ar kajoi mal akan o kujoned en aramaj akan, me muei jan melel.
15 To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.
Karoj me kon on makelekel akan, a jota me kon on me jamin o jo pojon akan, pwe arail lamelame o pil injen arail me jamin.
16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.
Re kin inda, me re aja Kot, a ni ar wiawia kan re kin ponjaja i. Irail meid jued, o jopeik, o jo koiok on jon en wiawia mau karoj.
