Taịtọs 2
1 Nʼakụkụ nke gị, na-akụzi ihe kwesiri eziokwu nke okwukwe.
Now you, speak the things that suit sound doctrine:
2 Gwa ndị okenye nwoke ka ha nwee anya udo, ka ha nwee akọnuche zuruoke, ka ha bụrụ ndị kwesiri nsọpụrụ, ndị okwukwe ha siri ike, ndị na-ahụ ibe ha nʼanya, na ndị nwekwara ntachiobi.
older men are to be sober, dignified, prudent, sound in the faith, in love and in endurance;
3 Nʼotu aka ahụ, gwa ndị okenye nwanyị ka ha na-eme omume dị ka ụmụ nwanyị dị nsọ. Ka ha ghara ịbụ ndị na-agba asịrị maọbụ ohu nke ịṅụbiga mmanya oke. Kama ha na-akụzi ihe dị mma.
similarly older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is good
4 Ha ga-esi otu a kuziere ụmụ agbọghọ ka ha ga-esi hụ di ha na ụmụ ha nʼanya.
—so that they may instruct the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 Ka ha bụrụkwa ndị akọnuche ha zuruoke, ndị dị ọcha nʼobi, ndị na-edozi ezinaụlọ di ha, ndị na-eme ebere, ndị na-edo onwe ha nʼokpuru di ha, ka onye ọbụla ghara ikwulu okwu Chineke.
to be prudent, pure, good homemakers, subordinating themselves to their own husbands, so that the Word of God not be maligned.
6 Nʼotu ụzọ ahụ kwa, gbaakwa ụmụ okorobịa ume ka ha jide onwe ha.
Similarly, exhort the young men to be self-controlled,
7 Nʼihe niile ị na-eme, mee onwe gị ihe ịma atụ ndị ọzọ ga na-eṅomi nʼime ezi omume. Na nkuzi gị niile, gosikwa izuoke na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi.
in all things presenting yourself as an example of good works: showing integrity, dignity and incorruptibility in your teaching
8 Ka ozi gị bụrụ nke kwụ ọtọ mmadụ apụghị ịma ikpe, ka ihere mee onye na-agbagha gị okwu, ebe ọ bụ na onweghi ihe ọjọọ ọ ga-ekwu gbasara anyị.
—healthy speech, beyond reproach—so that the opponent may be put to shame, having nothing slighting to say about us.
9 Gwa ndị ohu ka ha na-erubere ndị nwe ha isi, ka ha na-eme ihe ga-atọ onyenwe ha ụtọ mgbe niile. Ka ha hapụ ịsa ndị nwe ha okwu,
Exhort slaves to subordinate themselves to their own owners, to be well pleasing in all things, not talking back,
10 ka ha ghara izu ohi, kama ka ha gosi na ha bụ ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi. Nʼụzọ dị otu a, ha ga-ewetara ihe anyị na-akụzi maka Chineke Onye nzọpụta anyị otuto nʼihe niile ha na-eme.
not pilfering but showing total trustworthiness, so as to adorn the doctrine of our Savior God in everything.
11 Nʼihi na Chineke emela ka amara ya nke wetaara mmadụ niile nzọpụta pụta ìhè.
For the saving grace of God has appeared for all men,
12 Ọ bụkwa amara a na-akụziri anyị ka anyị jụ ndụ asọpụrụghị Chineke na nke ịgbaso ọchịchọ ọjọọ dị nʼụwa, kama ka anyị bie ndụ dị ka ndịisi zuruoke na ndụ ezi omume, nakwa ịtụ egwu Chineke nʼọgbọ nke oge a. (aiōn g165)
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live prudently, righteously and godly in this present age, (aiōn g165)
13 Otu a ka anyị ga-esi na-eche olileanya anyị dị ngọzị bụ ọbịbịa nke otuto nke Chineke anyị dị ukwuu, na Onye nzọpụta anyị bụ Jisọs Kraịst.
looking for the blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
14 Ọ bụ ya jiri onwe ya chụọ aja nʼihi anyị, ka ọ gbapụta anyị site nʼajọ omume anyị niile, na ido ndị ga-abụ ndị nke ya ọcha nye onwe ya, ndị ọ na-agụ agụụ ime ihe dị mma mgbe niile.
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 Na-akụzi ihe ndị a, werekwa ha na-adụ ndị gị ọdụ site nʼikike niile i nwere. Werekwa ha na-atụ ha mmehie ha nʼihu. Ka mmadụ ọbụla ghara ilelị gị anya.
Speak these things, whether you exhort or reprove, with all authority. Let no one disdain you.
