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,
Bulus urere wa Asere, uura u Yeso, barki uzauka anu inko iriba sa Asere azauka we nan urusa ukadundere sa wa hem ti cukum ta Asere.
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised from the most ancient times, (aiōnios g166)
Nan iruba ihuu u ivai uzatu ubinani sa Asere mada boo moco ba, ma inki tize unnu tuba uganiya. (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:
Anyimo uganiya rep ma paki tize timeme anyimo tize sa ma nyam in nyasi mazi indi wuzi uni kara nan Asere unu ubura uru.
4 to Titus, true child after the common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Uhana ahira a titos, vana ukandure anyimo una wa Asere na yeso unu bura uru.
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;
Barki anime ma ceki we u karita barki udi bee atira ta naa sa ti daza sarki uma sirka uuri u nya ana aje anyimo ko niya ni pin guu ubarka umme.
6 if any one is without reproach, the husband of one wife, having believing children, that are not accused of dissoluteness, or unruly.
Unanu ma ciki lau uruma uney u indei, inna hana a lau sa wa zo me aburu ba nan nu zatu uwuza imum iriri.
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,
Ya cukono barki Asere mazi lau. Kati ma ciki yeze u nigwirang u zatu nata unice ba. Kati mateki iriba i aki ni kara nimeme ba; Kati ma sizi ubere ba, unu ukara, nani unu biorso orso.
8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, discreet, just, holy, temperate,
Innu guna nime, macukuno unu kabsa anabu, uroni imum iriri. Unnu hira ko nyani, lau gu Asere, unnu canti unipum.
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.
Ma canti ni kara tize ti iriri sa ma kabi, barki ma bezi aye in tize ti iriri ma barka anu sa wa zi tikara nan me.
10 For there are many unruly vain talkers and deceivers, especially they of the circumcision;
Anu wa rani gbardang sa wa nyara abanga, anyimo anu ani gbara me. Tize tiwe me tizo me inice ba. Wa ranga anabu wa kuri wa wu we wa hurno.
11 whose mouths must be stopped, since they overturn whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of base gain.
Yā cukuno zam a turur ywe wa bezi imum sa idāa rizi ba in mu ih unnu cara ticukum ti tikura.
12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said: “The Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, slothful gluttons.”
Ure unu sa mazin jinjin uweme, magu, ''nu karita anu boo moco ko una uganya, zenzen nan i ama ya iro izenzen; In ti ipuru ti zenzen.''
13 This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
Tize tigeme ti kadundure tini barki anime barkan we inni kara barki wa tonno in ni kara anyimo una u Yeso me.
14 not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
Kati i kunna tize ta yahudawa nan itenten iweme, nan udungurka wa nabu sa wa gamirka kadundure amaru aweme.
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.
anu age sa wa zi lau, vat timumu tize lau, senki anu sa wa zi in madini nan nu zatu u kaba Asere ire imum ira ni sa izo we merum ba. barki muriba mu we nan nu gamara utize me ta zin madini.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and for every good work reprobate.
Andesa wa boo agi wa rusa Asere senki wa gaa we Asere nyarizi ko nyani. A nyari we tanu tiriri me.
