Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
Bulus, bawan Allah da kuma manzon Yesu Kiristi saboda bangaskiyar zaɓaɓɓu na Allah da kuma sanin gaskiya wadda take kaiwa ga rayuwa ta tsoron Allah
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began; (aiōnios g166)
duk wannan kuwa saboda begen nan ne ga rai madawwami da Allah ya yi alkawari tun fil azal, shi wanda ƙarya ba ta a gare shi, (aiōnios g166)
3 but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;
da lokacin da Allah ya zaɓa ya cika sai ya bayyana maganarsa a sarari ta wurin wa’azin da aka danƙa mini amana ta wurin umarnin Allah Mai Cetonmu,
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.
Zuwa ga Titus, ɗana na gaske a tarayyarmu cikin bangaskiya. Alheri da salama daga Allah Uba da kuma Kiristi Yesu Mai Cetonmu, su kasance tare da kai.
5 I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you;
Dalilin da ya sa na bar ka a Kirit shi ne don ka daidaita abubuwan da suka rage da ba a kammala ba, ka kuma naɗa dattawa a kowane gari, yadda na umarce ka.
6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
Dole dattijo yă kasance marar aibi, mijin mace guda, mutumin da’ya’yansa masu bi ne, waɗanda kuma ba a san su da lalata ko rashin biyayya ba.
7 For the overseer must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
Da yake an danƙa wa mai kula da ikkilisiya riƙon amana saboda Allah, dole yă zama marar aibi ba mai girman kai ba, ba mai saurin fushi ba, ba mai buguwa ba, ba mai rikici ba, ba kuma mai son ƙazamar riba ba.
8 but given to hospitality, as a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined;
A maimakon haka dole yă zama mai karɓan baƙi, mai son abu nagari, mai kamunkai, mai adalci, mai tsarki da kuma natsattse.
9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
Dole yă riƙe tabbataccen saƙon nan kam-kam yadda aka koyar, don yă iya ƙarfafa waɗansu da sahihiyar koyarwa yă kuma ƙaryata waɗanda suke gāba da shi.
10 For there are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
Gama akwai’yan tawaye da yawa, masu surutun banza da masu ruɗi, musamman ƙungiyar masu kaciya.
11 whose mouths must be silenced; who are upsetting whole families, teaching things which they should not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
Dole a hana su yin magana, domin suna kawo rushewar iyalai ta wurin koyar da abubuwan da bai kamata su koyar ba don neman ƙazamar riba.
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons."
Wani daga cikin annabawansu ma ya ce, “Kiretawa a kullum maƙaryata ne, mugayen dabbobi, ragwaye haɗamammu.”
13 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
Wannan shaida gaskiya ce. Saboda haka, sai ka tsawata musu sosai, don su zama sahihai a wajen bangaskiya,
14 not paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of people who reject the truth.
ba za su kuma mai da hankalinsu ga tatsuniyoyin Yahudawa ko ga umarnan waɗanda suke ƙin gaskiya ba.
15 To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Ga tsarkaka kuwa, kome mai tsarki ne, amma ga waɗanda suke marasa tsarki da kuma marasa ba da gaskiya, ba abin da yake da tsarki. Gaskiya dai, hankulansu da lamirinsu duk marasa tsarki ne.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
Sun ɗauka cewa sun san Allah, amma ta wurin ayyukansu suna mūsunsa. Sun zama abin ƙyama, marasa biyayya, ba su ma isa su yi aiki nagari ba.
