Tito 3
1 E PAIPAI aku ia lakou e hoolohe i na moi a me na'lii, a e malama hoi i na luna, a e noho makaukau i na hana maikai a pau;
Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
2 Aole e olelo ino hoi ia hai, e hakaka ole, e akakuu, e hoike ana i ke akahai i na kanaka a pau.
to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing courtesy to all people.
3 No ka mea, o kakou kekahi i naaupo i kekahi manawa, i hookuli hoi, i auwana hoi, e hookauwa ana mamuli o kela kuko a o keia kuko, o kela lealea a o keia lealea, e noho ana me ka huhu, a me ka huwa, i hoowahawahaia, a e hoowahawaha ana kekahi i kekahi.
For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 Aka, i ka ikea ana mai o ka lokomaikai a me ke aloha mai o ko kakou Ola, o ke Akua, i kanaka,
But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward humankind appeared,
5 Aole no na hana pono a kakou i hana'i, aka, ma kona aloha wale, ua hoola oia ia kakou, ma ka holoi hoohanau hou ana, a ma ka hana hou ia e ka Uhane Hemolele,
not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of rebirth and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
6 Ana i ninini nui mai ai maluna iho o kakou, ma o Iesu Kristo la o ko kakou Ola;
whom he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;
7 I lilo kakou, i ko kakou hoaponoia ana ma kona aloha wale mai, i mau hooilina ma ka manaolana o ke ola mau loa. (aiōnios g166)
that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
8 He olelo oiaio ia, a o keia mau mea ka'u e makemake nei ia oe e hooiaio mau aku i malama ka poe i manaoio i ke Akua e hoomau lakou ma na hana maikai He maikai, he pono hoi keia mau mea no na kanaka.
This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable for people;
9 E ku mamao aku oe i na ninau lapuwale, a mo na kuauhau, a me na hoopaapaa, a me ka hakaka ana no ke kanawai; no ka mea, he mau mea lapuwale ia e pono ole ai.
but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 O ke kanaka e ao kuee ana, o kau ia e hoonoho aku iwaho, mahope iho o ka mua a me ka lua o ke ao pono ana aku ia ia:
Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning;
11 Me ka ike hoi, ua hookahuliia oia, a ua hana hewa hoi, a ua hoa hewa hoi ia ia iho.
knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.
12 Aia hoouna aku au ia Aretema paha, ia Tukiko paha ion la, e hoo ikaika oe e hele mai io'u nei i Ni kopoli; no ka mea, o ko'u manao e noho malaila i ka hooilo.
When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
13 E kokua maikai oe ia Zena i ke kakaolelo, a me Apolo, i ko laua holo ana mai, i hemahema ole laua.
Send Zenas, the Law scholar, and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
14 E aho hoi e ao ko kakou poe e hana mau i na hana maikai, i na mea e pono ai, i lilo ole lakou i mea hua ole.
Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 Ke aloha aku nei ka poe a pau me au nei ia oe. E aloha oe i ka poe i aloha mai ia kakou ma ka manaoio. E alohaia mai oukou a pau loa. Amene.
All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
