Titus 3
1 Remind them to submit to rulers and authorities, to obey them, to be ready for every good work,
Ukkungnawk, sakthaihaih tawn kaminawk, lokcaekkungnawk ih lok to tahngaih moe, kahoih hmuennawk boih sak hanah amsakcoek kami ah oh han oh,
2 to revile no one, to not be eager to fight, and to be gentle, showing all humility toward everyone.
minawk kasae thui ai kami, monghaih koeh kami, tuinom tawn kami hoi kaminawk boih khaeah poeknaemhaih amtuengsak kami ah oh o hanah patuk ah.
3 For once we ourselves were thoughtless and disobedient. We were led astray and enslaved by various passions and pleasures. We lived in evil and envy. We were detestable and hated one another.
Aicae doeh canghniah loe amthu kami, lok tahngai ai kami, aling thaih kami, long nawmhaih hoi taksa koehhaih congca sah kami, minawk raihaih paek kami, uthaih tawn kami, hnukma koiah khosah kami, maeto hoi maeto hnuma kami ah ni a oh o.
4 But when the kindness of God our savior and his love for mankind appeared,
Toe aicae pahlongkung Angraeng Sithaw tahmenhaih hoi amlunghaih kami khaeah amtueng pacoengah loe,
5 it was not by works of righteousness that we did, but by his mercy that he saved us. He saved us through the washing of new birth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.
a sak o ih tok hoiah kaom toenghaih pongah na ai, angtha let thai hanah ang pasaehhaih, Muithla angthasak lethaih hoi palungnathaih a tawnh pongah ni aicae to ang pahlong.
6 God richly poured the Holy Spirit on us through our Savior Jesus Christ,
Aicae pahlongkung Jesu Kri rang hoiah aicae nuiah to Muithla to kapop ah ang kraih pae.
7 so that having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs with the certain hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Aicae loe a tahmenhaih rang hoiah ni toenghaih a hnuk o, dungzan hinghaih oep kami ah a oh o baktih toengah, qawktoep kami ah a om o tih. (aiōnios g166)
8 This message is trustworthy. I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to engage themselves in good works. These things are good and useful for everyone.
Hae loe oep kathok lok ah oh. Sithaw tang kaminawk loe kahoih hmuen sak o poe thai hanah acoe han oh; hae baktih toknawk na sak thai poe hanah kang koehhaih. Hae hmuennawk loe sak han kahoih hmuen khue na ai ah, kaminawk han doeh atho oh.
9 But avoid foolish debates and genealogies and strife and conflict about the law. Those things are unprofitable and worthless.
Toe ahlong kaom ai lokduenghaih, acaeng paruihaih, angaekhaih, kaalok pongah angzoehhaihnawk to ayae ah; to baktih hmuennawk loe atho om ai, avanghaih doeh om ai.
10 Reject anyone who is causing divisions among you, after one or two warnings,
Poekhaih amkhraengsak kami to vaito maw, vai hnetto maw na thuitaek pacoengah pathok ah.
11 knowing that such a person has turned from the right way and is sinning and condemns himself.
To baktih kami loe toenghaih loklam hoi amkhraeng kami, zaehaih sak koeh kami, angmah hoi angmah lok angcaek kami ah ni oh.
12 When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, hurry and come to me at Nicopolis, where I have decided to spend the winter.
Artema, to tih ai boeh loe Taikika to nang khaeah kang patoeh naah, Nikopoli vangpui ah kai khae angzoh thai han azom ah: siktue thung to vangpui ah oh han kam sak.
13 Do everything you can to send on their way Zenas the lawyer and Apollos, so that they lack nothing.
Kaalok kakop Zena hoi Appolo kholong caeh han amsak hoi naah, nihnik angaihaih tidoeh oh han ai ah tha pathok ah loe a bomh ah.
14 Our people must learn to engage themselves in good works that provide for urgent needs, and so not be unfruitful.
Aicae ih kaminawk doeh thingthai athai ai ah oh o han ai, kangtoeng kaminawk abomh thai hanah, hmuen kahoih sakhaih to amtuk o nasoe.
15 All those who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with all of you.
Kai khaeah kaom kaminawk boih mah ban ang sin o. Tanghaih hoiah aicae palung kaminawk to bansin ah. Nangcae boih nuiah tahmenhaih om nasoe. Amen.
