Titus 2

1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,

Kumele ufundise okuvumelana lemfundiso eqotho.

2 that older men should be sober-minded, worthy of respect, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:

Fundisa amadoda amadala ukuzithiba, afanele ukuhlonitshwa, azikhuze, njalo aqine ekukholweni, ethandweni kanye lasekubekezeleni.

3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;

Ngokunjalo, fundisa abesifazane abadala ukuba babe ngabahloniphayo ekuphileni kwabo, bangabi ngabahlebayo kumbe ababuswa liwayini kodwa ukuba bafundise okulungileyo.

4 that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

Ngakho-ke, bangafundisa abesifazane abatsha ukuba bathande omkabo labantwana babo

5 to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and being subject to their own husbands, so that God's word may not be discredited.

ukuba bazikhuze njalo bahlambuluke, lokuba bakhuthale emakhaya, lokuba lomusa, lokuba bazehlise ngaphansi kwabomkabo ukuze kungabikhona ogcona ilizwi likaNkulunkulu.

6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be self-controlled;

Ngokunjalo, khuthaza abesilisa abatsha ukuba bazikhuze.

7 in all things showing yourself an example of good works. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness,

Kukho konke babekele isibonelo ngokwenza okuhle. Ekufundiseni kwakho tshengisa ubuqotho lokuzimisela

8 and a sound message that cannot be condemned; that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.

kanye lokukhuluma okulengqondo okungeke kusolwe ukuze kuthi labo abakuphikisayo bayangeke ngoba bengelalutho olubi abangalutsho ngathi.

9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing in all things; not contradicting;

Fundisa izisebenzi ukuba zizehlisele ngaphansi kwamakhosi azo ezintweni zonke, zizame ukuwathokozisa, zingawaphenduli,

10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.

zingawantshontsheli, kodwa zibonakalise ukuthi zingathembeka okupheleleyo ukuze kuthi ngakho konke zenze imfundiso ngoNkulunkulu uMsindisi wethu ibe ngebukekayo.

11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people,

Ngoba umusa kaNkulunkulu oletha insindiso usubonakele ebantwini bonke.

12 instructing us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; (aiōn g165)

Uyasifundisa ukuthi “Hayi” ekweyiseni uNkulunkulu lasezinkanukweni zasemhlabeni njalo siphile ngokuzikhuza, ngokuqonda empilweni yokulalela uNkulunkulu ngesikhathi samanje, (aiōn g165)

13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ;

lapho sisalindele ithemba elibusisiweyo lokubonakala ngenkazimulo kaNkulunkulu wethu omkhulu longuMsindisi uJesu Khristu

14 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

owazinikela ngenxa yethu ukuba asihlenge ebubini bonke kanye lokuthi azihlambululele abantu abangabakhe, abatshisekela ukwenza okuhle.

15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

Ngakho lezi yizinto okumele uzifundise. Khuthaza njalo ukhuze ngamandla wonke. Ungavumeli muntu ukuthi akweyise.
