Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, (according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledgment of the truth, which is according to godliness;

to Titus, my genuine son, according to the common faith: Favor, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour.
5 Ta nena qarxxesen agiday burope giigana bessiza daro mishi diza gish ne gigsanamalane ta nena azazidamala katamay dizason wossa keeththa ciimata ne doranasa.
For this purpose, I left you in Crete, that you might set in order the things left unfinished, and to ordain seniors in every city, as I commanded you.
6 Cmatethan doristanayti ista bolla boroy bayndayta, isi machi azinata, nayti amanizaytane waysontayta woykko azazetiza nayta awata gideto.
If any one be without blame, the husband of one wife, having believing children, not accused of riotous living, nor unruly.
7 Wossa keeththa ciimay Xoossas oothana hadara ekidade gididamala iza bolla wothay bayndade gidanas beses. Hesiikka ceqetizade, gutha miishan ylotizadene mathotizade, ushanchanne izas besonta ogera go7a gididaz godi eki bizade gidanas besena.
For a bishop should be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not prone to anger, not given to wine, not a striker, not one who makes gain by base methods;
8 Hesafe bollara izi imath makiizade loo7o ootho dosizade berka bena hariizade sure as xiilone bes nagetizade gidanas beses.
but hospitable; a lover of good men, prudent, just, holy, temperate;
9 Hara asata loo7o timrten miithethzadenne he loo7o timirteza ixizayta hanqanas ba tamaridamala qalan minizade gidanas beses.
holding fast the true doctrine, as he has been taught; that he may be able, by wholesome teaching, both to exhort and to confute the gain-sayers.
10 Waysizaytine dunan xalala balethzayti daroti detes; harapekka heyti qaxaretida Ayhuda asatape ammanida asata bagatakko.
For there are many unruly and foolish talked and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
11 Heytanta co77u histethi beses. Gaasoyka isti besonta oogera bes go7a demanas besonta timrte tamarson keeththa asa wursi moron detes.
whose mouths must be stopped; who subvert whole families, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of sordid gain.
12 Ista Nabistappe isadey ista gish hasa7ishe “Qarxesa asay wuriso wode wordanchatane ita do7ota ganjjemane azalata” giides. f/ nabeza sunthi Epimenidese.
One of themselves, a prophet of their own, has said, "The Cretans are always liars, evil wild beasts, lazy bodies."
13 He markatethay tumu hessa gish ne ista loo7etha hanqista. Hesikka ista tumma amanoy danamalasa.
This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them sharply, that they may be healthy in the faith--
14 Ayhuddata haysu7e woykko tumu yooppe hakida asata azazo isti siyopetto.
not giving heed to Jewish fables, and precepts of men who pervert the truth.
15 Geshatas mishi wurikka geshsha shin tuatasinne amnontaytas gidikko wurikka tunakko. Harapekka ista qohaaththaaykka wurikka tunides.
To the pure, all meats are pure; but to the polluted and unbelieving, nothing is pure; for both their understanding and conscience are polluted.
16 Isti bena nu Xoosu eros getes shin ba hanotethan dikokka gidiko kadetes. Isti shunizayta, azazetontaytanne loo7o oothos besontaytakko.
They profess to know God; but by works they deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.
