Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Christ Jesus, for the faith of God's elect, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
Ni Pablo, maysa nga adipen ti Dios ken apostol ni Jesu-Cristo, para iti pammati dagiti napili a tattao ti Dios ken ti pannakaammo iti kinapudno nga umanamong iti kinanasantoan.
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised from the most ancient times, (aiōnios g166)
Adda dagitoy iti talged iti biag nga agnanayon nga inkari ti Dios, nga awanan ti panagul-ulbod, sakbay kadagiti amin a panawen ti tiempo. (aiōnios g166)
3 but in his own seasons manifested his word through the preaching with which I was intrusted by the commandment of God our Saviour:
Iti umno a tiempo, inwaragawagna ti saona babaen iti mensahe nga intalekna kaniak nga idanonko. Masapul nga aramidek daytoy babaen iti bilin ti Dios a manangisalakantayo.
4 to Titus, true child after the common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Kenka Tito, maysa a pudno nga anak a lalaki iti kadawyan a pammatitayo. Parabur, asi, ken kapia manipud iti Dios Ama, kenni Cristo Jesus a manangisalakantayo.
5 For this cause I left thee behind in Crete, that thou shouldst set in order the things that are wanting, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed thee;
Gapu iti daytoy a panggep nga imbatika idiay Creta, tapno maiyurnosmo dagiti banbanag a saan pay a nalpas, ken mangdutok kadagiti panglakayen iti tunggal siudad kas imbilinko kenka.
6 if any one is without reproach, the husband of one wife, having believing children, that are not accused of dissoluteness, or unruly.
Ti maysa a panglakayen ket masapul nga awan pakababalawanna, asawa a lalaki iti maysa a babai, addaan iti napudno nga annak a saan a maibilang a kas nadangkes wenno saan a disiplinado.
7 For a bishop must be without reproach, as God's steward; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not a striker, not greedy of base gain,
Kasapulan para iti agay-aywan, kas mangimatmaton iti bumalay ti Dios, nga awan pakababalawanna. Masapul a saan isuna a naariwawa wenno saan a maanawa. Masapul a saan isuna a nalaka nga agpungtot, saan a naigamer iti arak, saan a mannakiriri, ken saan a naagum a tao.
8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, discreet, just, holy, temperate,
Ngem ketdi, masapul a managsangaili isuna, maysa a gayyem ti naimbag. Masapul a nanakem isuna, nalinteg, nadiosan, ken managteppel.
9 holding fast the sure word according to what he was taught, that he may be able by sound teaching both to exhort, and to refute the gainsayers.
Masapul a salimetmetanna a nalaing ti mensahe a mapagtalkan a naisuro, tapno mabalinna a pakireden dagiti dadduma babaen iti naimbag a sursuro ken aturenna dagiti mangsuppiat kenkuana.
10 For there are many unruly vain talkers and deceivers, especially they of the circumcision;
Ta adu dagiti nasukir a tattao, nangnangruna dagidiay adda iti pannakakugit. Awan serserbina dagiti sasaoda. Allilawen ken idalanda dagiti tattao iti dakes a pagturungan.
11 whose mouths must be stopped, since they overturn whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of base gain.
Kasapulan a mapasardeng isuda. Isursuroda dagiti saanda koma nga isuro para iti nakababain a gunguna ken pagsisinninaenda dagiti sibubukel a pamilia.
12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said: “The Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, slothful gluttons.”
Kinuna ti maysa kadakuada, maysa a nasirib a tao kadakuada, “Dagiti taga -Creta ket saan nga agsarday a managulbod, dakes ken napeggad nga ay-ayup, dagiti sadut a nararawet.”
13 This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
Pudno daytoy a salaysay, isu a babalawem ida a siiinget tapno nasembengda koma iti pammati.
14 not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
Saanda nga ipangag dagiti parparbo nga istoria dagiti Judio wenno dagiti bilbilin dagiti lallaki a timmallikod iti kinapudno.
15 To the pure all things are pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure, but both their mind and conscience are defiled.
Kadagiti nasin-aw, amin a banbanag ket nasin-aw. Ngem kadagiti narugitan ken saan a mamatpati, awan iti nasin-aw. Ta narugitanen dagiti panunot ken konsensiada.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and for every good work reprobate.
Ibagbagada nga ammoda ti Dios, ngem ilibakda isuna babaen kadagiti aramidda. Makarurod ken nasukirda. Saanda a maanamongan iti aniaman a nasayaat nga aramid.
