Titus 3
1 Ni mingei hah roijêkpungei le rachamneipungei jâ ngei rang, chongdon rang, le lamtina asa tho rangin inningchien tit rangin minrietnôk ngei roh.
Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
2 Tute êro loia, inngêidîl le insûk-irin, le mi nâm chunga nunnêmtakin om tit rangin ril ngei roh.
to slander no one, and to be peaceable and considerate, always showing gentleness toward everyone.
3 Eini nanâk khom zora khat chu amotak, chongdonloi le dikloi tak ei lei nia. ôina saloi le hoiinhâinangei nâma suok changin ei lei om ani. Ei ringnun ngei hih narsasie le nunsien ei manga; mi enjôt makmea, mingeiin khom mi enjôt mak ngei.
For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, and enslaved to various lusts and pleasures. Living in wickedness and envy, we were loathsome and hated one another.
4 Hannirese, mi Sanminringpu ei Pathien inriengmuna le lungkhamna a juong minlanga han,
But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,
5 mi mojôk zoi. Mahih eini ei rachama sin sa ei tho sika nimaka, ama mi moroina han mi mojôka, Ratha Inthieng jârin, mi rusûka suoktharna le ringna thar mi pêk zoi ani.
he saved us, not because of any righteous works we had done, but according to his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and the renewal of the Holy Spirit.
6 Pathien'n, Sanminringpu Jisua Khrista jârin ei chunga hin Ratha Inthieng hah a bun ok zoi.
He richly poured out his Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 A moroina sika Pathien kôm midik mi minchanga, ei lei sabei kumtuong ringna rochonluopungei ei ni thei zoi. (aiōnios g166)
so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
8 Mahi adiktaka ti ani. Hi chongngei hih aliekin, lunghâng thorîtin ni misîr tit rangin nang ku nuom ani, hanke Pathien iempungei chu an zora mang han, sintho asa le mitin ta ranga mangruo sa ngei hah, tho rangin an bôk duoi thei.
This saying is trustworthy. I want yoʋ to insist on these things, so that those who have put their trust in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are good and beneficial for people.
9 Hannirese amo inkhal, richibulngei sûinangei, inkhalnangei, Balam roia insuolnangei chu nûksong roh; mangmunboi le kâmnângloi ani.
But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, quarrels, and disputes about the law, for they are unprofitable and futile.
10 Insenna sin ngâipu hah vêlnik dôr chu inningna chong pêk inla, masuole chu ite tho pe ngei nâng khâi mak.
Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning.
11 Ma anga mingei hah chu mi saloi mulungkôitak ani ti ni rieta, an sietnangei han an dikloina a minlang ngâi ani.
For yoʋ know that such a person is corrupted and sinful; he is self-condemned.
12 Artemas aninônchu Tychicus mini no kôma ko hongtîr tika chu Nicopolis taka ko kôm juong rang bôk tatak roh, asikchu ma muna han phalbi zora kai chu om rangin ko bôk ani.
When I send Artemas to yoʋ, or Tychicus, make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.
13 Balamtheipu Zena le Apolos hah, an chaina ngeia ite an insam loina rangin ne theidôr chu san ngei roh.
Do everything yoʋ can to help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way, and make sure they lack nothing.
14 Ei mingei hah sin sa thonân an ringnun mang ngêt rese ngei, anâng tatak ngei hah sem theia aomna rangin; ringnun kâmboiin an om rang nimak.
Our people must learn to devote themselves to good works in order to meet pressing needs, so that they will not be unfruitful.
15 Ko kôma omngei nâmin chibaimûknangei nang an hong muthuon. Taksônna taka ei malngei hah chibai pêk ngei roh. Pathien moroina chu nin chunga om rese.
All who are with me greet yoʋ. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
