Titus 3
1 Put them in mind to be in subjection to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready unto every good work,
Chetara ndị nke gị ka ha doo onwe ha nʼokpuru ndịisi na ndị ọchịchị, ka ha rubere ha isi, dịkwa njikere ịrụ ọrụ ọma ọbụla.
2 to speak evil of no man, not to be contentious, to be gentle, shewing all meekness toward all men.
Gwa ha ka ha ghara ikwulu onye ọbụla, ka ha gharakwa ịlụ ọgụ, kama, ka ha bụrụ enyi mmadụ niile, na-egosikwa ịdị nwayọọ ha nʼebe mmadụ niile nọ.
3 For we also were aforetime foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.
Nʼihi na mbụ, anyị onwe anyị bụ ndị nzuzu, ndị na-enupu isi, na ndị na-enweghị uche. Anyị bụ ohu agụụ ihe ọjọọ, na ihe ụtọ dị iche iche. Anyị biri ndụ obi ọjọọ na ekworo, na ịkpọrịta onwe anyị asị.
4 But when the kindness of God our Saviour, and his love toward man, appeared,
Ma mgbe obiọma na ịhụnanya Chineke Onye nzọpụta anyị pụtara ihe,
5 not by works [done] in righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost,
ọ zọpụtara anyị, ma ọ bụghị nʼihi ezi ihe ndị anyị mere, kama ọ bụ site nʼebere ya. Ọ zọpụtara anyị site na nsacha nke ịmụ ọzọ na nnwogharị nke Mmụọ Nsọ,
6 which he poured out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
onye ọ wụsara anyị nʼuju site nʼOnye nzọpụta anyị bụ Jisọs Kraịst,
7 that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
ka ọ bụrụ na ebe e sitere nʼamara gụọ anyị dịka ndị ezi omume, anyị ga-abụ ndị nketa, ndị nwere olileanya ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
8 Faithful is the saying, and concerning these things I will that thou affirm confidently, to the end that they which have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men:
Okwu a kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, ọ ga-amasị m ma i kwusie ihe ndị a ike, ka ndị kweere na Chineke, lezie anya nʼịrụ ezi ọrụ. Ihe ndị a dị mma na-abakwara mmadụ uru.
9 but shun foolish questionings, and genealogies, and strifes, and fightings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Ma zere ịrụ ụka nzuzu na ịgụ agbụrụ ọmụmụ, esemokwu niile, na ọgụ niile ndị mmadụ na-alụ banyere iwu. Ihe ndị a niile abaghị uru ọbụla, ha bụ ihe efu.
10 A man that is heretical after a first and second admonition refuse;
Gbasara onye na-akpa oke, ị dụchaa ya ọdụ ihe dịka otu ugboro maọbụ abụọ, leghara ya anya.
11 knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned.
Ebe ị ma na onye dị otu a bụ onye ndahie na onye ajọọ omume, o jirila aka ya maa onwe ya ikpe.
12 When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, give diligence to come unto me to Nicopolis: for there I have determined to winter.
Ana m akwado izitere gị Atemas maọbụ Taịkikọs. Gbalịa bịakwute m na Nikopolis, maka nʼebe ahụ ka m kpebiri ịnọ nʼoge oyi.
13 Set forward Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.
Gbaa mbọ zipụ Zenas bụ onye ọkaikpe, na Apọlọs, ngwangwa nʼije ha. Hụkwa na ha ji ihe niile dị ha mkpa.
14 And let our [people] also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
Nʼihi na ọ dị mkpa ka ndị anyị mụta inyere ndị niile chọrọ enyemaka ha aka. Ọ bụ nke a ga-eme ka ha bụrụ ndị na-amị mkpụrụ.
15 All that are with me salute thee. Salute them that love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
Ndị niile mụ na ha nọ nʼebe a na-ekele gị. Kelekwara anyị ndị niile hụrụ anyị nʼanya nʼime okwukwe. Ka amara dịnyere unu niile.
