Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God—an apostle moreover of Jesus Christ, —according to the faith of the chosen ones of God, and the personal knowledge of the truth that is according to godliness, —
Mini polo, Utienu naaceeno, leni Jesu Kilisti, n suani yua bi dandantieba po. ke ban bandi imoamoani leni mi tegima.
2 In hope of life age-abiding; which God, who cannot lie, promised before age-during times, (aiōnios g166)
lankuli tie ya miali kan gbeni yaa sugima tanpuuli. Utienu yua kan pua faama n den bili ya ŋoanianu hali mi ciilima. (aiōnios g166)
3 but hath manifested in its fitting seasons, even his word, in the proclamation with which entrusted am I—by injunction of our Saviour God:
O den poogini ke min doagidi O maama u yogunu n den pundi.
4 Unto Titus, my true child according to a common faith, —favour and peace, from God [our] Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
fini tita, n biboadiga, ti kuli dandanlini, Utienu ti Ba, leni Jesu Kilisti ti Candaano ŋanbili leni o yanduama n ya ye leni ŋa.
5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that, the things remaining undone, thou mightest completely set in order, and mightest establish, in every city, elders, as, I, with thee arranged: —
n den ŋaaŋa kileta ki boa ŋan ŋanbi yaali n den sieni. nani min den bili ya ŋoabona.
6 If anyone is unaccusable, a husband of, one wife, having children that believe, who are not charged with riotous excess, nor insubordinate;
dogu n kuli ŋan kaani bi gobidikaaba, li kani ya pia yaaba ke bi tendi bi po o siedi ŋamo, ki tie puo yendo Calo, ke bi bila tie yaaba n tiega, yaaba n kaa pia cangidi, kaa tie biyenyieeda.
7 For it is needful that the overseer be—unaccusable, as God’s steward, not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not ready to wound, not seeking gain by base means,
Li tie tiladi, ke li djandieli gobidikoa n ya pia ya siedo n ŋani, nani Utienu naacemo yeni. wan da ya tie tupaalu, leni mi pafiima daano. yua n ki puuni o yuli li daŋuoli ni. ka tie nibiado, ki da yaa bua ya baali n ki tieegi.
8 But hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, kind, possessing self-control,
Ama ki gaandi bi niba cangu, ki go tie bi niŋanba danli, yumiinli dano, ki tiega, ki gagidi ki ŋana, ki pia mi dingima,
9 Holding fast, in the matter of his teaching, the faithful word, that he may be able both to encourage with his healthful instruction, and, the gainsayers, to refute.
yua n teni o yuli imoamoani maama, yaama ke o den bangima. yeni ke wan fidi ki teni mi bangimoama, ya min nia leni mi bangifaama.
10 For there are many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially they of the circumcision, —
Li tie yene, ke baa bi dandantieba siiga ni, bi nieyieekaaba leni bi maciandanba, leni i boandi danba ŋuana n mubini.
11 Whose mouths must needs be stopped, men who are upsetting whole houses, teaching the things which ought not [to be taught] —for the sake of base gain.
bi yadi ti diedi, ki tendi ya bangima n ki ŋani, lan ki bi naani n ni ban bangi yaama, ki bua i fee panpaani.
12 Said one from among them, a prophet, of their own!—Cretans! always false, mischievous wild-beasts, idle gluttons:
Bi yaa sawalipuaba n ni yendo den yedi, kileta yaaba tie tuofadanba, muayanbiaditi, tugupialu danba.
13 This witness, is true, —for which cause, be reproving them sharply, that they may be healthy in their faith,
li siedo tie moamoani. fu leni ba, ke ban ba li dandan moanli.
14 Not giving heed to Judaical stories and commandments of men who are turning away from the truth:
ke ban da teni bi yula ku maasuagu togida leni binisaaliba balimaama, yama n ki ŋua imoamoani.
15 All things, are pure, unto the pure, but, unto the polluted and faithless, nothing, is pure, but polluted are both their mind and conscience;
Li bonla kuli ŋani yaaba n gagidi ki ŋani po, ama li baa kuli ki ŋani yaaba n juagini leni a pajuaga danba po, bi yanfuoma leni yantiana juagini.
16 God, they confess that they know, but, by their works, they deny him, being, abominable, and obdurate, and, as to any good work, found, worthless.
Bi tua ke bi bani Utienu, ama ki nan nia leni O bi tuona n ni, bi tie cangididanba, ni yiekaaba, ki kan fidi ki tieni mo tuonŋanli ba.
