< Tito 2 >

1 No wee-rĩ, no nginya ũrutanage maũndũ marĩa maringaine na ũrutani ũrĩa mwagĩrĩru.
Now you, speak the things that suit sound doctrine:
2 Rutaga athuuri arĩa akũrũ maikarage matarĩ arĩĩu, na marĩ a gũtĩĩka, na a kwĩgirĩrĩria merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, na marĩ arũmu ũhoro-inĩ wa gwĩtĩkia, na makoragwo marĩ na wendani o na ũkirĩrĩria.
older men are to be sober, dignified, prudent, sound in the faith, in love and in endurance;
3 O nao atumia arĩa akũrũ marutage gũikaraga na mĩikarĩre ya ũtheru, na matigatuĩke a gũcambania o na kana mamenyere kũnyuuaga ndibei nyingĩ matuĩke ta ngombo ciayo, no nĩ matuĩke a kũrutanaga maũndũ marĩa mega,
similarly older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is good
4 nĩgeetha mahote kũruta atumia arĩa ethĩ kwenda athuuri ao na ciana ciao,
—so that they may instruct the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 na matuĩke a kwĩgirĩrĩria merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, na atheru, na mehangʼagie na wĩra o wa kwao mũciĩ, na matuĩke atugi, na maathĩkagĩre athuuri ao, nĩgeetha gũtikanagĩe mũndũ ũngĩcambia kiugo kĩa Ngai.
to be prudent, pure, good homemakers, subordinating themselves to their own husbands, so that the Word of God not be maligned.
6 O ta ũguo-rĩ, ũmagĩrĩria aanake, na ũmataarage matuĩke a kwĩgirĩrĩria merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ.
Similarly, exhort the young men to be self-controlled,
7 Maũndũ-inĩ mothe, tuĩka kĩonereria gĩa gwĩkaga wega maũndũ-inĩ mothe. Rĩrĩa ũkũrutana onanagia ũrũngĩrĩru, na ũtarĩ na itherũ,
in all things presenting yourself as an example of good works: showing integrity, dignity and incorruptibility in your teaching
8 o na waragie ciugo iria ciagĩrĩire, itangĩrutĩka mahĩtia, nĩgeetha arĩa matũkararagia maconorithio tondũ wa kwaga ũndũ mũũru mangĩaria igũrũ riitũ.
—healthy speech, beyond reproach—so that the opponent may be put to shame, having nothing slighting to say about us.
9 Taaraga ngombo atĩ ciathĩkagĩre aathani a cio maũndũ-inĩ mothe, na igeragie kũmakenia, no itigacookanagĩrie nao,
Exhort slaves to subordinate themselves to their own owners, to be well pleasing in all things, not talking back,
10 na itikamaiyage indo ciao, no cionanagie atĩ no ciĩhokwo kũna, nĩguo itũmage ũrutani wa ũhoro wa Ngai Mũhonokia witũ wendekage maũndũ-inĩ mothe.
not pilfering but showing total trustworthiness, so as to adorn the doctrine of our Savior God in everything.
11 Nĩ ũndũ wega wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrehaga ũhonokio nĩũguũranĩirio kũrĩ andũ othe.
For the saving grace of God has appeared for all men,
12 Wega ũcio wa Ngai nĩguo ũtũrutaga kũregana na maũndũ marĩa matarĩ ma kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai, na merirĩria mooru ma gũkũ thĩ, na gũtũũra twĩgirĩrĩirie merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, na gũtũũra na mĩtũũrĩre ya ũngai na mĩrũngĩrĩru na ya kwĩyamũrĩra Ngai mahinda-inĩ maya tũrĩ, (aiōn g165)
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live prudently, righteously and godly in this present age, (aiōn g165)
13 o tũgĩetagĩrĩra kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa kĩrĩ na kĩrathimo, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa gũkaaguũranĩrio riiri wa Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa arĩ Ngai witũ mũnene na Mũhonokia.
looking for the blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
14 Nake nĩwe werutire nĩ ũndũ witũ, nĩguo atũkũũre waganu-inĩ wothe, na atherie andũ matuĩke ake kĩũmbe, arĩa marĩ na kĩyo gĩa gwĩkaga maũndũ mega.
who gave Himself for us, so that He might redeem us from all lawlessness and purify for Himself a special people, zealous for good works.
15 Rĩu-rĩ, maũndũ macio nĩmo wagĩrĩirwo nĩkũrutanaga. Ũmanagĩrĩria na ũkaananagie wĩ na wathani wothe. Ndũkanareke mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ akũire.
Speak these things, whether you exhort or reprove, with all authority. Let no one disdain you.
