Taitas 3
1 An mina loong asuh samthun thuk rum uh, ngoong awang nyia deek akaan phansiitte loong, jeng ah naktoom daan rum ah, nyia jaatrep lam nah ese mootkaat ah reesuh banban toom ih tong rum ah.
Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
2 Neng suh baat rum uh mihoh tiit naktoom thetbaat rum ah, erah nang ih bah jiiwah joonwah totoh et thiin rum ano semroongroong lam ih toomtong rum ah, eno warep damdoh neng toongtang ah toom noisok rum ah.
to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing courtesy to all people.
3 Tumeah seng loong uh jaasiit ba thungko angti, mih jeng laboichaatte, nyia lapun lajun mina angti. Seng loong ah jaatrep ethih ekhah suh lungwaang nyia mongmah ih no songtongti. Seng roidong ah ethih, mih siikhaam tenthun, nyia miksuk mui lam ih tongsong ra tahe.
For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 Enoothong seng Pangte Rangte minchan nyia tenthet ah dongjat thuk tahe adi,
But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward humankind appeared,
5 heh ih seng ah puipang tahe. Erah seng mootkaat ese ih moh thoidi tapang tahe, erah nang ih heh teewah tenthet nawa ih seng ah piipang hali, Esa Chiiala jun ih saachot heeno seng ah ena et dong tupthuk hali nyia roidong ena ah kohali.
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 Rukha d'Qudsha,
6 Rangte ih Esa Chiiala ah seng sak ni seng Pangte Jisu Kristo jun ih rapne ih daapkaat taha,
whom he poured out on us richly, through Yeshua Meshikha our Savior;
7 eno ba heh tenthet dowa ih seng ah Rangte damdoh epun ih tongsong ih nyia seng ih laalom hi lathoon theng roidong adoh jen chonop wang ih. (aiōnios g166)
that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
8 Arah amiisak tiitthaak. Eno ngah ih erah tiit ah hoondak et baat kot suh ramlang, eno ba Rangte suh hanpiite mina loong ih ese mootkaat ah re suh neng saapoot jen koh ah, eno erah ah warep mina raang ih ese nyia maak doh chapjih ang ah.
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 Enoothong lalangka tiitkhaap thoidoh ladaan muitheng, te awah tiit doh, changrook nyia Hootthe tung doh eboot thet hoom mui lah etheng. Erah tiit loong ah thaangmuh nyia lalangka tiit.
but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 Mih pheehoomte suh jaanyi taan ba choophaan baattaan theng, erah tokkhoh doh bah tumjih uh lakah ih thiinhaat theng.
Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning;
11 An ih jat et hu erah likhiik mina ah ethih, nyia neng rangdadah ih neng moongtaang ah dongjat ah.
knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.
12 Ngah ih an jiinnah Artimas adoleh Tiichikas daapjah hang adoh an nga jiinnah Nikopolis nah rootroot ih wang ho, tumeah hahook ko doh ngah erah nah tong suh thunhang.
When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
13 Mat hoonte Jinas nyia Apolo ra nyuuha doh nengnyi lengkhoom raangtaan ih mathan jen chosok uh erah than et soksam we nyu uh, nengnyi tumjih doh uh lathangrang thuk ih chosok weetheng.
Send Zenas, the Law scholar, and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
14 Seng mina loong ih ese mootkaat mosuh saapoot ah mamet kotjih ah erah enyoot jaatjaat etheng, eno ba neng ah saarookwih laboot laabe thang ih jen chosokmui rum ah; neng roidong ah thaangmu nah naktoom tong rum ah.
Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 Nga dam dowa loongtang ih sen suh jengkhaapse ah maat hali. Seng jengkhaapse ah hanpiite loong joonte suh nep toombaat koh an. Rangte minchan ah sen damdam toom ang ha.
All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
