Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the chosen ones of God, and an acknowledging of truth that [is] according to piety,
NA Paulo ke kauwa a ke Akua, he lunaolelo hoi na Iesu Kristo ma ka manaoio o ka poe i waeia mai e ke Akua, a ma ka hooiaio ana'ku i ka olelo oiaio mamuli o ka malama i ke Akua;
2 on hope of continuous life, which God, who does not lie, promised before times of ages (aiōnios g166)
Me ka manaolana i ke ola mau loa a ke Akua hoopunipuni ole i olelo mua mai ai mamua loa aku o keia ao; (aiōnios g166)
3 (and He revealed His word in [His] own times), in preaching, which I was entrusted with, according to a charge of God our Savior,
A i kona manawa pono hoi, ua hoike i kana olelo, ma ka haiolelo ana, i kauohaia mai ia'u ma ke kauoha a ko kakou Ola a ke Akua:
4 to Titus—true child according to a common faith: Grace, [[kindness, ]] peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior!
Ia Tito i ke keiki ponoi ma ka manaoio kuikahi; o ke aloha, o ke ahonui a me ka maluhia mai ke Akua ka Makua mai, a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo o ko kakou Ola.
5 For this cause I left you in Crete, that you may arrange the things lacking, and may set elders down in every city, as I appointed to you,
Eia ka'u mea i waiho aku ai ia oe ma Kerete, i hooponopono oe i na mea hemahema, a e kukulu hoi i na lunakahiko iloko o na kulanakauhale a pau e like me ka'u i kanoha ai ia oe;
6 if anyone is blameless, a husband of one wife, having believing children, not under accusation of riotous living or insubordinate—
Ina i hala ole kekahi, he kane hoi na ka wahine hookahi, he mau keiki manaoio kana, aole i oleloia no ka uhauha, aole hoi he kolohe.
7 for it is required of the overseer to be blameless, as God’s steward, not self-pleased, nor prone to anger, not given to wine, not an abuser, not given to shameful gain,
No ka mea, e pono e hala ole ka luna kiai, he puuku la hoi ia no ko Akua; aole hookuli, aole huhu, aole lilo i ka waina, aole mokomoko, aole puui i ka waiwai ino:
8 but a lover of strangers, a lover of [the] good, sober-minded, righteous, holy, self-controlled,
Aka, he hookipa, he makemake i ka pono, he kuoo, he hoopono, he hemolele, me ka hoomanawanui;
9 holding—according to the teaching—to the steadfast word, that he may also be able to exhort in the sound teaching, and to convict the deniers;
E hoopaa ana i ka olelo oiaio, me ia i aoia'i, i hiki ia ia ma ke ao pono ana'ku ke paipai aku a me ka hoopaa aku i ka poe e hoole mai ana.
10 for there are many both insubordinate, vain-talkers, and mind-deceivers—especially those of the circumcision—
No ka mea, he nui no ka poe hookuli, e olelo lapuwale ana, me ka hoopunipuni, no ke okipoepoe ka nui.
11 whose mouths must be covered, who overturn whole households, teaching what things it should not, for [the] sake of shameful gain.
E pono ke hoopaaia ko lakou mau waha, ko ka poe i hookahuli i ko na hale okoa, me ke ao ana'ku i na mea e pono ole ai ia lakou ke ao, no ka waiwai ino.
12 A certain one of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans! Always liars, evil beasts, lazy bellies!”
O kekahi o lakou, he kaula no lakou iho no, ka i olelo iho, He hoopunipuni mau ko Kerete, he poe holoholona hihiu hewa opu heha.
13 This testimony is true; for which cause convict them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
He oiaio keia hoike ana la; nolaila e papa ikaika aku oe ia lakou, i ku pono lakou ma ka manaoio;
14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and commands of men, turning themselves away from the truth.
Aole e malama ana i ko ka Iudaio manao lapuwale, aole hoi i na kauoha a kanaka a ka poe i hookabuli i ka olelo oiaio.
15 All things, indeed, [are] pure to the pure, and nothing [is] pure to the defiled and unsteadfast, but even the mind and the conscience of them [is] defiled.
I ka poe maemae, ua maemae na mea a pau; aka, i ka poe haumia a me ka hoomaloka, aohe i mea maemae ia lakou; ua haumia nae ko lakou naau a me ko lakou lunamanao.
16 They profess to know God, but they deny [Him] by their works, being abominable, and disobedient, and disapproved to every good work.
Ua hooiaio ko lakou waha i ko lakou ike ana i ke Akua; aka, ma ka hana ana ua hoole lakou, he poe e hoowahawahaia, he hoolohe ole, he ku ole i na hana maikai a pau.
