Timoteus I 6
1 LADU kan karos en wauneki melel ar saumas akan, pwe mar en Kot o lamalam der lalauela.
Let those who are under the yoke as slaves esteem their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teachings be not blasphemed.
2 A irail me ar saumas akan kin poson ren der mamale kin ir aki ar saulang, a mak eta ren peiki ong irail, pweki ar lelapok o kompokelar. Mepukat padapadakiki o panauiki.
Those whose masters are Christian believers must not treat them with disrespect, because they are brothers; nay, rather slave for them the better because those who get the benefit of their services are believing and beloved. Continue to teach and preach this.
3 A ma amen kin wia eu padak toror, o a sota pan dadaurata masan mau en atail Kaun Iesus Kristus o lamalam, me kon ong Kot,
If any one teaches heterodoxy, and refuses to consent to the wholesome words of the Lord Jesus Christ, and to the teachings of religion,
4 Nan a aklapalap o sota weweki meakot, a somauki akamai o lokaia sued, me kin kareda peirin, kapei lokaia, lalaue, o karaune mal.
he is puffed up with conceit and knows nothing, but is doting about disputations and a strife of words. These give rise to envy, quarrels, railings, evil suspicions,
5 O song en akamai en aramas akan, me kin suedela ni lol arail, re liki sang melel, re kiki ong, me pai ren Kot pan kareda kapwa.
and wrangling between men whose minds are corrupt and destitute of the truth; who suppose that godliness is a source of gain.
6 A pai ren Kot o lolapot, iei me pai kasampwalia.
Now godliness with contentment is truly gainful;
7 Pwe sota, me kitail wa dong sappa a sansal, me kitail pil sota pan wawei sang meakot.
for we have brought nothing into the world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out!
8 A ma kan atail kisin manga o at likau mia, kitail en insenemauki.
So if we have food and shelter, let us be content with that.
9 A irail, me inong iong kapwapwala, pan lodi ong songesong, o kotauepa kan, o inong sued, o kamatok, me kakirdilang aramas akan, wasan kamekam o sued.
Those who desire to be rich fall into the snares of temptation and many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 Pwe limpok ong moni me tapin song sued karos, me akai inong iong, rap salongala sang poson o kare ong pein irail kamadak toto.
For the love of money is a source of all kinds of evil; and in their eager desire to be rich some have been led astray form the faith, and have pierced themselves with many sorrows.
11 A koe aramas en Kot amen, tang wei sang mepukat, a inong iong me pung o pai ren Kot, poson, limpok, kanongama, opampap en Ngen.
But you, O servant of God, flee from these things, and run after integrity, piety, faith, love, stedfastness, gentleness.
12 Wiada pei mau en poson, aneki maur soutuk, me koe pil paeker ong o kadededa kadede mau o mon saunkadede toto. (aiōnios g166)
Keep contending in the noble contest of the faith; seize hold on eternal life, to which you were called when you confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 I kakaliki ong uk mon Kot, me kotin kamaureda meakaros o mon Kristus Iesus, me kotin kadededa mon Pontius Pilatus kadede mau o.
In the presence of God who gives life to all, and of Christ Jesus who bore witness to the good confession before Pontius Pilate,
14 Koe en kanikid kusoned, o so samin, o so sapung, lao en atail Kaun Iesus Kristus a kotin pwarado,
I charge you, keep your commission spotless and irreproachable until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Me Kaun iasanai pan kasansaleda ni a ansau, iei Nanmarki en nanmarki kan o Kaun en kaun akan,
For in his own good time this will be brought about by that blessed and only potentate, King of kings and Lord of lords,
16 Pwe i eta ieias soutuk, me kotikot nan marain, me sota meamen kak ong, me sota aramas kilanger, o so kak kilang, i en waunla manaman soutuk! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
who alone possesses immortality, who dwells in light that none can approach, whom no man has ever seen or can see; to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 Koe en kapung ong me kapwapwaki dipisou en sappa et, me re der aklapalap o pil der kaporoporeki kapwa somelel, a Kot, me kupurai ong kitail sapan meakan karos, pwe kitail en paie kida. (aiōn g165)
Charge the rich of this world not to be supercilious, nor to trust in uncertain riches, but in God, who provides all things richly for our use. (aiōn g165)
18 Irail en dadaureta ni arail wiawia mau kan, o ren rokekila dok mau kan, o nek pasang, o sapan men sauasa.
Charge them to practise benevolence, to be rich in good works, to be open-handed and generous,
19 Wiawia ong pein irail pason mau eu o ki pena ong ansau kokodo pwe irail en konodi maur melel.
laying up right good treasure for themselves in the world to come, in order that they may obtain the Life which is life indeed.
20 O Timoteus, pereki pai, me pangalang re om, ni om liki sang poupou mal kai o padak likam en me aklolekong.
O, Timothy, guard the treasure which is committed to you. Shun the profane babblings and contradictions of the falsely called "knowledge"
21 Me akai lodi ong ap salongala sang poson. Mak o en me re om!
which some professing have erred from the faith. Grace be with you.
