Titus 3
1 Remind them to be submissive to their rulers and authorities; let them be obedient, ready for every good work;
Ririkanagia andũ acio atĩ maathĩkagĩre anene na arĩa maathanaga, na matuĩke aathĩki, na makoragwo mehaarĩirie kũruta wĩra wothe mwega,
2 they must speak evil of none, they must not be quarrelsome, but gentle, showing perfect meekness toward all.
ningĩ matikae gũcambia mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ, no makorwo marĩ a thayũ na acaayanĩri, na monanagie mĩtugo ya ũhooreri harĩ andũ othe.
3 For we were ourselves once foolish, disobedient, deceived, slaving for various lusts and pleasures, passing our lives in malice and envy. We were hateful, and we hated one another.
Nĩ ũndũ hĩndĩ ĩmwe-rĩ, o na ithuĩ twarĩ akĩĩgu, na tũtiathĩkaga, na tũkaheenekaga; twarĩ ngombo cia merirĩria ma mĩthemba yothe o na ikeno ciothe. Twatũũraga tũrĩ na rũmena na ũiru, tũgathũũragwo o na tũgathũũranaga mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.
4 But when the kindness of God our Saviour, And his love toward men shined forth,
No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ũtugi wa Ngai Mũhonokia witũ na wendo ũrĩa atwendete naguo ciaguũranĩirio-rĩ,
5 He saved us, not because of any deeds that we had done in righteousness, But because of his own pity for us. He saved us by that washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit
nĩatũhonokirie, na ti ũndũ wa maũndũ ma ũthingu marĩa twekĩte, no nĩ ũndũ wa tha ciake. Agĩtũhonokia na ũndũ wa gũtũtheria, agĩtũciara rĩngĩ na agĩtwerũhia na ũndũ wa Roho Mũtheru,
6 which he poured out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
ũrĩa aatũitĩrĩirie na ũtaana nĩ ũndũ wa Jesũ Kristũ Mũhonokia witũ,
7 In order that being justified by his grace, We might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
nĩgeetha twatuuo athingu nĩ ũndũ wa wega wake, tũtuĩke agai a muoyo wa tene na tene kũringana na ũrĩa tũtũire twĩrĩgĩrĩire. (aiōnios g166)
8 This saying is trustworthy. On this I want you to firmly insist; that those who have faith in God must be careful to maintain honest occupations. Such counsels are good and profitable for men.
Ũhoro ũcio nĩ wa kwĩhokeka. Na ngũkĩenda waragie maũndũ maya ũgwatĩirie, nĩgeetha andũ arĩa mehokete Ngai memenyerie kwĩrutĩra na kĩyo gwĩkaga maũndũ mega. Maũndũ maya nĩ magĩrĩru kũna, na nĩ marĩ uumithio harĩ mũndũ o wothe.
9 But avoid foolish questionings and genealogies and dissensions and wranglings about the law; for these are unprofitable and empty.
No rĩrĩ, eheragĩra ngarari cia ũrimũ, na ũhoro wa gũkinyĩra njiarwa, na gũkararania, na mbaara cia ũhoro wa watho, tondũ maũndũ macio matirĩ uumithio, na nĩ ma tũhũ.
10 After a first and second admonition, refuse a man who is causing divisions;
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũtũmaga kũgĩe na nyamũkano-rĩ, mũkaanagie riita rĩa mbere, na rĩa keerĩ. Thuutha wa ũguo, regana nake.
11 you may be sure that such a man is perverted and sinning, and is self-condemned.
Wagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmenya atĩ mũndũ ta ũcio nĩ mwaganu na nĩ mwĩhia; nake we mwene nĩetuĩrĩire ciira.
12 As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, join me in Nicopolis as quickly as you can, for I have arranged to winter there.
Ndaarĩkia gũtũma Aritema kana Tukiko kũrĩwe, geria ũrĩa ũngĩhota ũũke kũrĩ niĩ gũkũ Nikopoli, tondũ nĩkuo nduĩte gũikara ihinda rĩa heho.
13 Speed Zenas the lawyer, and Apollos, on their journey diligently.
Ĩka ũrĩa wothe ũngĩhota ũteithie Zena ũrĩa wakiri, na Apolo rĩrĩa marĩkorwo marĩ rũgendo-inĩ, na wone atĩ marĩ na indo ciothe iria mabatarĩtio nĩcio.
14 Let them want nothing, and "let our people learn to devote themselves to honest work to supply the necessities of their teachers," so that they be not unfruitful.
Nao andũ aitũ nĩmemenyerie kũrutaga mawĩra marĩa mega, nĩguo mateithagĩrĩrie mabataro-inĩ ma o mũthenya nĩguo matigatũũre mũtũũrĩre ũtarĩ na uumithio.
15 All who are with us salute you. Salute those who love me in faith. Grace be with you all.
Andũ arĩa othe tũrĩ nao nĩmamũgeithia. Geithia andũ arĩa othe matwendete thĩinĩ wa wĩtĩkio. Wega wa Ngai ũrogĩa na inyuĩ inyuothe.
