Titus 1
1 Paul, a bondservant of God and an Apostle of Jesus Christ for building up the faith of God's own people and spreading a full knowledge of the truths of religion,
Bulus, kucin Kutelle nin nanan kadura Yesu Kristi, udu utune ana yinu sa uyenu nale na ina fere naini nnuzu Kutelle nin tunu kidegene nin yinu udine nale na yina nin katwa kachine Kutelle
2 in hope of the Life of the Ages which God, who is never false to His word, promised before the commencement of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
Nin likara kibinai au lai sa liga, un Kutelle ulena adini kinu b, nin likawali vat kafin uur kubi. (aiōnios g166)
3 And at the appointed time He clearly made known His Message in the preaching with which I was entrusted by the command of God our Saviour:
Kubi kucine awati uliru kadura me kitini ayina nin me in suu. Inwadin woru in suu nani bara ubelu Kutelle una tuchu bite.
4 To Titus my own true child in our common faith. May grace and peace be granted to you from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Udu kiti Titus, gono kidegen nanya yinu sa uyen. Ubolu Kutelle nkuneme nin shau kibinai nnuzu Kutelle nin Kristi Yesu. unan tucu bite.
5 I have left you behind in Crete in order that you may set right the things which still require attention, and appoint Elders in every town, as I directed you to do;
Bara nani iwa cinfi nanya Krete, uma suu imene na ti sa suu ba unin tarda akune ucharananya ni gbir nafo na ina belin fi.
6 wherever there is a man of blameless life, true to his one wife, having children who are themselves believers and are free from every reproach of profligacy or of stubborn self-will.
Akune na iwa yita nin dinon b, ules uwani urum nin nono nayi achine na nin dinonkibinai ba nin salin lazu nliru.
7 For, as God's steward, a minister must be of blameless life, not over-fond of having his own way, not a man of a passionate temper nor a hard drinker, not given to blows nor greedy of gain,
Uhoon igime ame unan yenjue, kilari Kutelle yita lau sa kulapi. na awa yita
8 but hospitable to strangers, a lover of goodness, sober-minded, upright, saintly, self-controlled;
Nin nani na ayita una sesu namara, una suu nilemong na chou. Ayita unan kpilzu uchine ayita lau, una feu Kuteele nin minu litime.
9 holding fast to the faithful Message which he has received, so that he may be well qualified both to encourage others with sound teaching and to reply successfully to opponents.
Ulena ama minu gagan ligulan kidegen, bara anan taa among likara nanya liru uchine nin dursuzu uchine nin kelu na le na inari ghe.
10 For there are many that spurn authority--idle, talkative and deceitful persons, who, for the most part, are adherents of the Circumcision.
Bara among duku gbardan anannazu kiti masaman ale na ina suu nani ukachiya ti gbulan mine cauzin ba. Idin rusuzu anit udu lidina linanzan.
11 You must stop the mouths of such men, for they overthrow the faith of whole families, teaching what they ought not, just for the sake of making money.
Ucaun ikpadani. Idin dursuzu ilemon na icau idusuza ba, bara imong chiin insali riba nin musuzu kilari.
12 One of their own number--a Prophet who is a countryman of theirs--has said, "Cretans are always liars, dangerous animals, idle gluttons."
Umong mine, adi jinjin ka aworoAnan fulzu kinu nsali ligan inani iyita imun fiu nafo inawan ten, nin kugbala nidowo.''
13 This testimony is true. Therefore sternly denounce them, that they may be robust in their faith,
Ule ulire kidegegher, tamas ukele nani ina su dert nanya yinnu sauyenu.
14 and not give attention to Jewish legends and the maxims of men who turn their backs on the truth.
Nauwa nii kibinai fe na Yahudawa nin na biin mine ba, ko udu tidokoki nanit na kpila nin kibinai kit kidegene.
15 To the pure everything is pure; but to the polluted and unbelieving nothing is pure, but on the contrary their very minds and consciences are polluted.
Udu kiti na le na idi lau, vat umong di lau. Bara udu kiti na lena idi zemzem nin diru yinu nimong ilau. Bara nibinai mine nin kpilizu mine di nanzanghari.
16 They profess to know God; but in their actions they disown Him, and are detestable and disobedient men, and for any good work are utterly useless.
Imasi fo iyiru Kutelle, bara nani inani narighe nin matiza mine. Na icau ba inin di gbas. Na katwa kacine di kiti mine ba.
