Titus 3

1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

Mubayeezye kuti balibombye kubendelezi akulibasimulawu, kamubaswlizya, akulibambila kuli yonse milimu mibotu

2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.

Mubayezye kutawambula bubi awumwi, kutaba achiyandisyo chakulwana, alimwi abusichamba, akutondezya kuliwinsya kubantu bonse.

3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

Nkambo limwi lyamazuba iswe lwesu twakali abaya batayeeyi akutaswilizya. Twakazulwidwa mukusweka alimwi akuba mubuzike kwinda aziyandisyo zisiyene siyene alimwi azibotezya. Twakali kupona mububi amumabbivwe. Twakali chisesemyo alimwi katutayandani abamwi.

4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

Pesi eelyo buuya bwa Leza Mufutuli wesu antomwe aluyando lwakwe lwakumisyobo yoonse yakayubunuka,

5 not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the mikveh of rebirth and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

Tensi kwakali kwamilimo yabusalali obo mbutwakachita swebo, pesi mukwinda muluse lwakwe elyo wakatufutula, kwindila mukusanzigwa a Muuya Uusalala.

6 whom he poured out on us richly through Yeshua the Messiah our Savior;

Leza wakafonkola watila Muuya Uusalala alindiswe mukwinda mumufutuli wesu Jesu Kkilisito.

7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

Ezi wakazichita kuti tululamikwe kuluzyalo, tuzobe basikukona katulabulangizi bwabuumi ibutamani. (aiōnios g166)

8 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;

Oyu mulumbe ulasyomeka. Ndiyanda kuti mwambule chabusichaamba atala azintu ezi, kuchitila kuti abo bakasyoma muli Leza bajatisye mumilimo mibotu. Makani mabotu, alalugwasyo kubantu boonse.

9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

Pesi amuleke kukazyania kwabufubafuba alimwi amazyalani amikowa amapenzi akutamvwanana atala amulawo. Ezyo zintu tazikwe mpindu alimwi tazigwasyi.

10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,

Mumukake nabaani uyetelezya kwanzaana akati kanu, nimwamana kumuchenjezya lumwi na tubili,

11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.

mbuli mbomuzi kuti muntu uliboobo wakasanduka kuzwa munzila iluleme alimwi ulokubisya ulikulipa mulandu lwakwe.

12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.

Elwo nindatuma Atemasi naba Tuchikkasi kulindinywe, ufwambane alimwi usike kulindime ku Nikkopolisi, oko nkundakayeeya kulomaninsya chindi champeeyo nkendinkuko.

13 Send Zenas the Torah scholar and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.

Ufwambane utume Zenasi, unikide kumilawu, antomwe a Apolosi, enzila yakuti batakabuli chintu.

14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.

Bantu besungabayiiye kulinjizya lwabo beni kumilimu mibotu eyo ipa ziyandisi akufwambana alimwi kuti batabi bantu batazyali michelo.

15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.

Boonse abo balandime balikumujuzya. Mubajuzye bonse abo batuyanda mulusyomo. Luzyalo alube anywebo moonse.
