KuThithusi 1
1 UPawuli, inceku kaNkulunkulu, lomphostoli kaJesu Kristu, njengokokholo lwabakhethiweyo bakaNkulunkulu lolwazi lweqiniso olunjengokukhonza uNkulunkulu,
Nye, Paulo, Mawu ƒe dɔla kple Yesu Kristo ƒe apostolo na Mawu ƒe ame tiatiawo ƒe xɔse kple sidzedze nyateƒe si kplɔa ame yia Mawusosroɖa gbɔe,
2 ethembeni lempilo elaphakade, uNkulunkulu ongaqambi manga alithembisa zingakafiki izibanga zesikhathi, (aiōnios g166)
xɔse kple sidzedze si ku ɖe mɔkpɔkpɔ na agbe mavɔ la ŋu, nu si ŋugbe Mawu, ame si medaa alakpa o la do, hafi ɣeyiɣi mavɔwo dze egɔme, (aiōnios g166)
3 kodwa wabonakalisa ngezikhathi ezifaneleyo ilizwi lakhe ngokutshumayela mina engakuphathiswayo njengokulaya kukaNkulunkulu uMsindisi wethu,
eye wòɖe eƒe nya la fia le eya ŋutɔ ƒe azãgbe la dzi, to nyanyui la gbɔgblɔ si wòtsɔ de asi nam le Mawu, mía Ɖela la ƒe gbeɖeɖe nu.
4 kuTitosi umntanami isibili njengokholo esiluhlanganyele sonke: Umusa, isihawu, ukuthula okuvela kuNkulunkulu uBaba, leNkosini uJesu Kristu uMsindisi wethu.
Mele agbalẽ sia ŋlɔm na Tito, vinye vavãtɔ le xɔse ɖeka si le mía si la nu. Amenuveve kple ŋutifafa si tso Mawu Fofo la kple Kristo Yesu mía Ɖela gbɔ la nanɔ kpli wò.
5 Ngenxa yalokhu ngakutshiya eKrete, ukuze ulungise lezozinto eziseleyo, njalo ubeke abadala kuwo wonke umuzi, njengoba mina ngakulaya;
Nu si ta megblẽ wò ɖe Kreta lae nye be nàɖɔ nu siwo susɔ la ɖo, eye nàɖo hamemegãwo le du ɖe sia ɖe me abe ale si meɖoe na wò ene.
6 uba kukhona ongasolekiyo, indoda elomfazi munye, elabantwana abakholwayo, abangasolwa ngokuganga, loba ngokungalaleli.
Ele na hamemegã be wòanye mokakamanɔŋutɔ, nyɔnu ɖeka ko srɔ̃, ŋutsu si ƒe viwo lé xɔse la me ɖe asi, eye nya mele wo ŋu be wonye aglãdzelawo kple tomaɖolawo o.
7 Ngoba kufanele umbonisi abe ngongasolekiyo, njengomphathindlu kaNkulunkulu; ongayisiso siqholo, ongathukutheli masinyane, ongesiso sidakwa, ongathandi ukulwa, ongafisi inzuzo embi,
Esi wònye be wotsɔ Mawu ƒe dɔ de asi na hamemegã ta la, ele nɛ be wòanye mokakamanɔŋutɔ. Manye dadala alo ame si doa dɔmedzoe kabakaba o, manye ahatsunola o, manye ame si wɔa nu gbodogbodo alo tia viɖe ƒoɖi yome o.
8 kodwa ophatha kuhle izihambi, othanda okuhle, oziphathayo, oqondileyo, ongcwele, ozithintayo,
Ke boŋ wòanye amedzrowɔla, ame si lɔ̃a nu nyui, ɖokuidziɖula, nu dzɔdzɔe wɔla, ame si le kɔkɔe, eye wòwɔa nu ɖe ɖoɖo nu.
9 ebambelela elizwini elithembekileyo njengokwemfundiso, ukuze laye abe lamandla okukhuthaza ngemfundiso ephilileyo, lokwehlula labo abalenkani.
Ele nɛ be wòalé nyateƒenya la me ɖe asi sesĩe abe ale si wofiae ene, ale be eya hã natsɔ nu dzɔdzɔe fiafia ade dzi ƒo na ame bubuwo, eye wòatsi ɖeklemiɖelawo ƒe nya nu.
10 Ngoba kulabanengi labo abangalaleliyo, abakhuluma okuyize labakhohlisayo, ikakhulu labo abokusoka,
Elabena aglãdzela geɖewo le afi ma, nya dzodzro gblɔlawo kple ameblelawo, vevietɔ ame siwo tso aʋatsotso ƒe kɔmama me.
11 imilomo yabo imele ukufakwa isayeke, abagenqula imizi yonke, befundisa izinto ezingafanelanga, ngenxa yenzuzo embi.
Ele be woatsi woƒe nuwɔnawo nu, elabena wole aƒekɔ blibowo dome gblẽm to nu siwo mele be woafia o la fiafia me, eye wowɔa esia ɖe viɖe ƒoɖi ta.
12 Omunye kubo, owabo umprofethi, wathi: AmaKrete ahlezi engabaqambimanga, izilo ezimbi, iziminzi ezivilaphayo.
Woawo ŋutɔ ƒe nyagblɔɖilawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ be, “Kretatɔwo nye alakpadalawo ɖaa, wonye lã vɔ̃ɖiwo kple nutsuɖula kuviatɔwo”
13 Lobubufakazi buqinisile. Ngalesosizatho balayisise ngobukhali, ukuze baphile ekholweni,
Ɖaseɖiɖi sia le eteƒe, eya ta ka mo na wo vevie, ale be woade blibo le xɔse la me,
14 bangalaleli inganekwane zamaJuda, lemithetho yabantu abafulathela iqiniso.
eye womaɖo to Yudatɔwo ƒe gliwo alo aɖo to ame siwo gbe nu le nyateƒe la gbɔ ƒe sededewo o.
15 Kwabahlambulukileyo konke kuhlambulukile; kodwa kwabangcolileyo labangakholwayo kakulalutho oluhlanzekileyo; kodwa lengqondo lezazela zabo kungcolile.
Ame siwo dza la, nu sia nu le dzadzɛe na wo, ke ame siwo me gbegblẽ le, eye womexɔe se o la, naneke mele dzadzɛe le wo gbɔ o. Le nyateƒe me la, woƒe susu kple dzitsinya katã me do viviti.
16 Bavuma ukuthi bayamazi uNkulunkulu, kodwa bemphika ngezenzo, besenyanyeka, labangalaleliyo, lakuwo wonke umsebenzi omuhle kabasizi lutho.
Wogblɔna be yewonya Mawu, gake wogbea nu le egbɔ to woƒe nuwɔnawo me. Wonye ŋunyɔnuwo kple tomaɖolawo, eye womedze na nu nyui aɖeke wɔwɔ o.
