Titus 2

1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,

Ka ke leaʻaki pe ʻe koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku taau mo e akonaki haohaoa:

2 that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in perseverance,

Ke faʻa tokanga ʻe he mātuʻa tangata, pea nau anga fakamotuʻa, ʻo fakapotopoto, mo haohaoa ʻi he tui, mo e ʻofa, mo e faʻa kātaki.

3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good,

Mo e kau finemātuʻa foki, ke nau ʻulungāanga fakamāʻoniʻoni, ke ʻoua naʻa ko e kau fakakovi, pe tokanga lahi ki he uaine, ka ko e kau akonaki ʻoe meʻa lelei;

4 that they may train the young wives to love their husbands, to love their children,

Koeʻuhi ke nau ako ki he kau finemui ke anga fakapotopoto, ke ʻofa ki honau husepāniti, ke ʻofa ki heʻenau fānau,

5 to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God’s word may not be blasphemed.

Ke nau fai poto, mo angatonu, ʻo faʻa nofo ʻi ʻapi, ʻo angalelei, pea talangofua ki honau husepāniti, ke ʻoua naʻa lauʻikovi ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua.

6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be sober minded.

Ke ke enginaki ki he kau talavou foki ke loto fakapotopoto.

7 In all things show yourself an example of good works. In your teaching, show integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,

Ke ke fakahā koe ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē ko e fakaʻilonga ʻoe ngaue lelei: ʻi he akonaki ke hā ʻae taʻehala, mo e anga fakamotuʻa, mo e moʻoni,

8 and soundness of speech that can’t be condemned, that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.

Mo e lea haohaoa, ʻaia ʻe ʻikai faʻa talia, koeʻuhi ke mā ai ia ʻaia ʻoku kau kehe, pea ne taʻemaʻu ha meʻa ke ne lauʻikovi ai ʻakitautolu.

9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters and to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting,

Ke talangofua ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ki honau ngaahi ʻeiki, pea ke fai kotoa pē ko [honau ]fakafiemālie lelei; kaeʻoua naʻa fakatoutala;

10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.

‌ʻOua naʻa kaihaʻa, kae fakahā atu ʻae angatotonu lelei kotoa pē; koeʻuhi ke nau fakaongolelei ʻae akonaki ʻoe ʻOtua, ko hotau Fakamoʻui, ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.

11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

He ko e ʻaloʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ne ʻomi ʻae fakamoʻui ki he kakai kotoa pē, kuo hā mai ia,

12 instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; (aiōn g165)

‌ʻO ne akonekina ʻakitautolu, ke siʻaki ʻae anga taʻefakaʻotua mo e ngaahi holi fakamaama, ka tau moʻui anga fakapotopoto, mo māʻoniʻoni, mo angafakaʻotua, ʻi he māmani; (aiōn g165)

13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,

‌ʻO tatali ki he ʻamanaki fakamonūʻia ko ia, mo e fakahā ʻi he nāunau ʻoe ʻOtua lahi, ko hotau Fakamoʻui ko Sisu Kalaisi;

14 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

‌ʻAia naʻa ne foaki ʻe ia ia koeʻuhi ko kitautolu, koeʻuhi ke ne huhuʻi ʻakitautolu mei he hia kotoa pē, pea fakamāʻoniʻoni ha kakai lelei lahi maʻana, ʻoku fai velenga ʻae ngaahi ngaue lelei.

15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

Ako ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, mo enginaki, mo valoki ʻi he mālohi kotoa pē. ʻOua naʻa manukiʻi koe ʻe ha taha.
