< Titus 3 >

1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
te yathA dezAdhipAnAM zAsakAnAJca nighnA AjJAgrAhiNzca sarvvasmai satkarmmaNe susajjAzca bhaveyuH
2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing courtesy to all people.
kamapi na nindeyu rnivvirodhinaH kSAntAzca bhaveyuH sarvvAn prati ca pUrNaM mRdutvaM prakAzayeyuzceti tAn Adiza|
3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
yataH pUrvvaM vayamapi nirbbodhA anAjJAgrAhiNo bhrAntA nAnAbhilASANAM sukhAnAJca dAseyA duSTatverSyAcAriNo ghRNitAH parasparaM dveSiNazcAbhavAmaH|
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward humankind appeared,
kintvasmAkaM trAturIzvarasya yA dayA marttyAnAM prati ca yA prItistasyAH prAdurbhAve jAte
5 not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of rebirth and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
vayam AtmakRtebhyo dharmmakarmmabhyastannahi kintu tasya kRpAtaH punarjanmarUpeNa prakSAlanena pravitrasyAtmano nUtanIkaraNena ca tasmAt paritrANAM prAptAH
6 whom he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;
sa cAsmAkaM trAtrA yIzukhrISTenAsmadupari tam AtmAnaM pracuratvena vRSTavAn|
7 that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
itthaM vayaM tasyAnugraheNa sapuNyIbhUya pratyAzayAnantajIvanasyAdhikAriNo jAtAH| (aiōnios g166)
8 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable for people;
vAkyametad vizvasanIyam ato hetorIzvare ye vizvasitavantaste yathA satkarmmANyanutiSTheyustathA tAn dRDham AjJApayeti mamAbhimataM|tAnyevottamAni mAnavebhyaH phaladAni ca bhavanti|
9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
mUDhebhyaH praznavaMzAvalivivAdebhyo vyavasthAyA vitaNDAbhyazca nivarttasva yatastA niSphalA anarthakAzca bhavanti|
10 Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning;
yo jano bibhitsustam ekavAraM dvirvvA prabodhya dUrIkuru,
11 knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.
yatastAdRzo jano vipathagAmI pApiSTha AtmadoSakazca bhavatIti tvayA jJAyatAM|
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
yadAham ArttimAM tukhikaM vA tava samIpaM preSayiSyAmi tadA tvaM nIkapalau mama samIpam AgantuM yatasva yatastatraivAhaM zItakAlaM yApayituM matim akArSaM|
13 Send Zenas, the Law scholar, and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
vyavasthApakaH sInA ApalluzcaitayoH kasyApyabhAvo yanna bhavet tadarthaM tau yatnena tvayA visRjyetAM|
14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
aparam asmadIyalokA yanniSphalA na bhaveyustadarthaM prayojanIyopakArAyA satkarmmANyanuSThAtuM zikSantAM|
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
