Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God and an emissary of Yeshua the Messiah, according to the faith of God’s chosen ones and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
U Paulo utumwa nu Ngulubhi nutumwa nu Yesu UKristi hulwitio lwateuliwa wa Ngulubhi mahala ga lwoli galeta mahala gisangahusu.
Wawile musubhiluo lyiumi wawila wula Ngulubhi siga awajilea wandeilenga watusubhivhizye awa nde wila na wila. (aiōnios g166)

Igamasala gakwe akwinkula izyoo lwakwe munongwa uwapvile anee aulumbelele. Ihaziwa abhombe ismihulazimisye yaguvu ya Ngulubhi ufhulo wetu.
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah our Saviour.
Wa Tito, umwana uwanalwoli aligane nishawamini wakwe ulusulo lwituu, huyi ugwiphana nu waushea fume wa Ngulubhi uDada nu Yesu Ukristi ufhulu wetu.
5 I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you—
Hunongwa ene ihale ha Krete, huje ugali nganye imongwa zyutii izya zyasagalile hagamalishe na vhavhishe Azehee wishiwaza kila khaya nishipalaji zyaga.
6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behaviour.
Azehe wishivhaza wasahalalamishe, ulume abhanje nushi omwo walina wana awaminiwa wasayangwa ama wasani ishisvii.
7 For the overseer must be blameless, as God’s steward, not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
Ni muhimu wavhenyii, yawimila uwi nyumba iya Ngulubvi aga ndavhe uli silaumu, amganda lalamishe angamutu wibwango uwasawikhana. Alazimiha angahve mwalahombwa ga ndafumilane numwene agandevhe wivho asaheze avhe wanyonyoywe amanyonye.
8 but given to hospitality, a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled,
Usimamizi awanje wakalibisye, yawaza uwiza awanje mudhu wijele. Zyunhi awe wana lyoli, uyahuputa Ungulubhi uwakha nayuya.
9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
Unu awezya asimamile inyipoto izyana lwolisha manyizye. Ili awezyaaje awa pinye moyo gibhawamazye apele gamanyizye amiza lyawezya awapendulanya awandulanye awahukhana, afanaje winji wazileshe indajizyo hasa wala tohala inongwa yao yamapuli yapuluzya bhakhopela.
10 For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
Pipo awawitejele wiji hasa watohala utunongwa twao twapuruzye. Wakhopela nawalongozye awadhu araposhe.
11 whose mouths must be stopped: men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain’s sake.
Iwaziwa abhazije abhadhuniivho bhawamanyizya gala gasatafundizye agasagawazi wa kwa fainda idhi dhinho ni wananganye nganya uwizyo wudhi.
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons.”
Mutiyao, mutu upole ayanga, “Wakrete wali ni lenga lwasalimaliha bhavhivhi makhanu hatali bholo natena bhapafuu.”
13 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
Enya gawelezewa gana lwoli ishiubhakhane wikhone liwazye ayanje ilwoli mulwizyo.
14 not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
Awe ungandawisanganye nivilalo au ndalozya sazi papa izya Kiyahudi ama hamutii zwabhabhu abha bhawuzya khosi wanalwoli.
15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Wabhobhi walishiza ivhibhu na shimo shalishiza afatane inzi ozyao dhilika zyaozi chafuliwe.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
Wahwitiha humanye Ungulubhi, lelo imbombo zyao zikhana abhene wani nthavu habhawiyisyeswa sabhahakisiwe humbombe inyiza.
