< Tito 2 >

1 No wee-rĩ, no nginya ũrutanage maũndũ marĩa maringaine na ũrutani ũrĩa mwagĩrĩru.
But do you inculcate the things which become wholesome 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.
that aged men be vigilant, grave, prudent, healthy by faith, love, patience.
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,
That aged women, in like manner, be in deportment as becomes sacred persons--not slanderers, not enslaved to much wine, good teachers;
4 nĩgeetha mahote kũruta atumia arĩa ethĩ kwenda athuuri ao na ciana ciao,
that they may persuade the young women to be lovers of their husbands, lovers of 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 calm, chaste, careful of their families, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be defamed.
6 O ta ũguo-rĩ, ũmagĩrĩria aanake, na ũmataarage matuĩke a kwĩgirĩrĩria merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ.
The young men, in like manner, exhort to govern their passions.
7 Maũndũ-inĩ mothe, tuĩka kĩonereria gĩa gwĩkaga wega maũndũ-inĩ mothe. Rĩrĩa ũkũrutana onanagia ũrũngĩrĩru, na ũtarĩ na itherũ,
In all things make yourself a pattern of good works: in teaching, show incorruptness, gravity,
8 o na waragie ciugo iria ciagĩrĩire, itangĩrutĩka mahĩtia, nĩgeetha arĩa matũkararagia maconorithio tondũ wa kwaga ũndũ mũũru mangĩaria igũrũ riitũ.
wholesome speech which can not be condemned; that he who is on the opposite side may be ashamed, having nothing bad to say concerning you.
9 Taaraga ngombo atĩ ciathĩkagĩre aathani a cio maũndũ-inĩ mothe, na igeragie kũmakenia, no itigacookanagĩrie nao,
Exhort servants to be subject to their own masters, and in all things be careful to please, not answering again,
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 secretly stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.
11 Nĩ ũndũ wega wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrehaga ũhonokio nĩũguũranĩirio kũrĩ andũ othe.
For the favor of God, which brings salvation, has appeared to 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 soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world-- (aiōn g165)
13 o tũgĩetagĩrĩra kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kĩrĩa kĩrĩ na kĩrathimo, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa gũkaaguũranĩrio riiri wa Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa arĩ Ngai witũ mũnene na Mũhonokia.
expecting the blessed hope; namely, the appearing of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour 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, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
15 Rĩu-rĩ, maũndũ macio nĩmo wagĩrĩirwo nĩkũrutanaga. Ũmanagĩrĩria na ũkaananagie wĩ na wathani wothe. Ndũkanareke mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ akũire.
These things inculcate, and exhort, and reprove with all authority; let no one despise you.
