Taituha 1

1 Na Paora, he pononga na te Atua, he apotoro na Ihu Karaiti, i runga i te whakapono o te hunga whiriwhiri a te Atua, i te matauranga hoki ki ta te pono e rite ai te karakia;

Παῦλος δοῦλος θεοῦ, ἀπόστολος δὲ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ κατὰ πίστιν ἐκλεκτῶν θεοῦ καὶ ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας τῆς κατ’ εὐσέβειαν

2 I runga ano i te tumanako atu ki te ora tonu, i whakaaria mai nei i mua atu o te ao e te Atua e kore nei e teka; (aiōnios g166)

ἐπ’ ἐλπίδι ζωῆς αἰωνίου, ἣν ἐπηγγείλατο ὁ ἀψευδὴς θεὸς πρὸ χρόνων αἰωνίων, (aiōnios g166)

3 Nana nei i whakakite mai tana kupu i ona wa, ra te kupu i tukua mai ki ahau, he mea whakarite mai na te Atua, na to tatou Kaiwhakaora;

ἐφανέρωσεν δὲ καιροῖς ἰδίοις τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ ἐν κηρύγματι ὃ ἐπιστεύθην ἐγὼ κατ’ ἐπιταγὴν τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν θεοῦ,

4 Ki a Taituha, ki taku tamaiti pono i runga i to tatou whakapono tahi: Kia tau te aroha noa me te rangimarie, he mea na te Atua Matua, na Karaiti Ihu, na to tatou kaiwhakaora.

Τίτῳ γνησίῳ τέκνῳ κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν· χάρις καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν.

5 Ko te mea tenei i waiho atu ai koe e ahau ki Kariti, kia whakatikaia ai e koe nga mea i mahue, kia whakaritea ai ano hoki he kaumatua ki ia pa, ki ia pa, kia pera ai me taku i whakatakoto atu ai ki a koe:

Τούτου χάριν ἀπέλιπόν σε ἐν Κρήτῃ, ἵνα τὰ λείποντα ἐπιδιορθώσῃ καὶ καταστήσῃς κατὰ πόλιν πρεσβυτέρους, ὡς ἐγώ σοι διεταξάμην,

6 Ki te mea he tangata kahore e ekengia e te kupu, he tahu no te wahine kotahi, he tamariki whakapono ana, kahore e korerotia to ratou toreretanga ki te kino, kahore e tutu.

εἴ τίς ἐστιν ἀνέγκλητος, μιᾶς γυναικὸς ἀνήρ, τέκνα ἔχων πιστά, μὴ ἐν κατηγορίᾳ ἀσωτίας ἢ ἀνυπότακτα.

7 Ko te tikanga hoki mo te pihopa, kia kaua e ekengia e te kupu, kia rite ki ta te Atua tuari: ehara i te mea tohe ki tana ake, kahore ona aritarita, kahore ana kakai waina, kahore ana papatu, kahore e whai i te taonga he;

δεῖ γὰρ τὸν ἐπίσκοπον ἀνέγκλητον εἶναι ὡς θεοῦ οἰκονόμον, μὴ αὐθάδη, μὴ ὀργίλον, μὴ πάροινον, μὴ πλήκτην, μὴ αἰσχροκερδῆ,

8 Engari e atawhai ana i te manuhiri, e aroha ana ki te pai, e whai whakaaro ana, e tika ana, e tapu ana, e pehi ana i ona hiahia;

ἀλλὰ φιλόξενον, φιλάγαθον, σώφρονα, δίκαιον, ὅσιον, ἐγκρατῆ,

9 E u ana te pupuri i te kupu pono i whakaakona atu na, kia taea ai e ia, i te mea ka tika nei tana whakaako, te whakahauhau, te turaki ano i ta te hunga e totohe mai ana.

ἀντεχόμενον τοῦ κατὰ τὴν διδαχὴν πιστοῦ λόγου, ἵνα δυνατὸς ᾖ καὶ παρακαλεῖν ἐν τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ καὶ τοὺς ἀντιλέγοντας ἐλέγχειν.

10 He tokomaha hoki te hunga tutu, korero teka noa, tinihanga; nui atu ia o te hunga o te kotinga,

Εἰσὶν γὰρ πολλοὶ ἀνυπότακτοι, ματαιολόγοι καὶ φρεναπάται, μάλιστα οἱ ἐκ τῆς περιτομῆς,

11 Me kuku o ratou waha; riro pu hoki etahi whare te whakaputa ke e ratou, e whakaako ana i nga mea e kore e tika, he whakaaro hoki ki te taonga he.

οὓς δεῖ ἐπιστομίζειν, οἵτινες ὅλους οἴκους ἀνατρέπουσιν διδάσκοντες ἃ μὴ δεῖ αἰσχροῦ κέρδους χάριν.

12 I mea tetahi o ratou, he poropiti no ratou ake, He teka tonu ta nga Kariti, he kararehe kino, he pukukai, he mangere.

εἶπέν τις ἐξ αὐτῶν, ἴδιος αὐτῶν προφήτης, Κρῆτες ἀεὶ ψεῦσται, κακὰ θηρία, γαστέρες ἀργαί.

13 Ka pono tenei korero. Na reira kia koi tau kupu riri ki a ratou; kia ora ai to ratou whakapono;

ἡ μαρτυρία αὕτη ἐστὶν ἀληθής. δι’ ἣν αἰτίαν ἔλεγχε αὐτοὺς ἀποτόμως, ἵνα ὑγιαίνωσιν ἐν τῇ πίστει,

14 Kei tahuri hoki ratou ki nga kupu tito a nga Hurai, ki nga ture a nga tangata e whakaputa ke ana i te pono.

μὴ προσέχοντες Ἰουδαϊκοῖς μύθοις καὶ ἐντολαῖς ἀνθρώπων ἀποστρεφομένων τὴν ἀλήθειαν.

15 He ma nga mea katoa ki te hunga ma: tena ki te hunga poke, kahore nei o ratou whakapono, kahore he mea ma: heoi he mea poke o ratou whakaaro, o ratou hinengaro.

πάντα καθαρὰ τοῖς καθαροῖς· τοῖς δὲ μεμιαμμένοις καὶ ἀπίστοις οὐδὲν καθαρόν, ἀλλὰ μεμίανται αὐτῶν καὶ ὁ νοῦς καὶ ἡ συνείδησις.

16 Ki ta ratou ki kua matau ratou ki te Atua; heoi ko a ratou mahi hei whakakahore ki a ia, he hunga whakarihariha ratou, he hunga tutu, e kore ano e tikangatia mo tetahi mahi pai.

θεὸν ὁμολογοῦσιν εἰδέναι, τοῖς δὲ ἔργοις ἀρνοῦνται, βδελυκτοὶ ὄντες καὶ ἀπειθεῖς καὶ πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἀδόκιμοι.
