Παῦλος δοῦλος θεοῦ, ἀπόστολος δὲ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ κατὰ πίστιν ἐκλεκτῶν θεοῦ καὶ ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας τῆς κατ᾽ εὐσέβειαν,
2 Ke romilwe go lere tumelo kwa go ba Modimo o ba tlhophileng le go ba ruta go itse boammaaruri jwa Modimo, boammaaruri jo bo fetolang matshelo a batho, gore ba nne le botshelo jo bo sa khutleng, jo Modimo o ba bo solofeditseng pele ga lefatshe le simologa, mme ga o kake wa bua maaka. (aiōnios g166)
ἐπ᾽ ἐλπίδι ζωῆς αἰωνίου, ἣν ἐπηγγείλατο ὁ ἀψευδὴς θεὸς πρὸ χρόνων αἰωνίων, (aiōnios g166)
3 Mme jaanong ka nako ya One e ntle, O senotse Mafoko a a Molemo a, mme o bile o ntetlelela go a bolelela mongwe le mongwe. Ka taolo ya Modimo Mmoloki wa rona, ke tlhomilwe go dira tiro e, ya One.
ἐφανέρωσεν δὲ καιροῖς ἰδίοις τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ, ἐν κηρύγματι, ὃ ἐπιστεύθην ἐγὼ κατ᾽ ἐπιταγὴν τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν θεοῦ·
4 Lo ya kwa go: Tito, yo e leng morwaake tota mo ditirong tsa Morena. A Modimo Rara le Keresete Jesu Mmoloki wa rona O go nee masego a One le kagiso ya One.
Τίτῳ γνησίῳ τέκνῳ κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν· χάρις, καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν.
5 Ke go tlogetse koo mo setlhaketlhakeng sa Kereta gore o dire sengwe le sengwe se se tlhokegang go thusa go nonotsha phuthego nngwe le nngwe ya sone, mme ke ne ka go kopa go tlhoma baruti mo motseng mongwe le mongwe, ba ba tlaa salang morago ditaelo tse ke di go neetseng.
Τούτου χάριν ἀπέλιπόν σε ἐν Κρήτῃ, ἵνα τὰ λείποντα ἐπιδιορθώσῃ, καὶ καταστήσῃς κατὰ πόλιν πρεσβυτέρους ὡς ἐγώ σοι διεταξάμην·
6 Banna ba o ba tlhophang, ba tshwanetse ba bo ba itsege ka mekgwa e mentle; mongwe le mongwe o tshwanetse a bo a na le mosadi a le mongwe le bana ba bone ba tshwanetse go rata Morena le gone ga ba a tshwanela go itsege ka bosula kgotsa ka go sa reetseng batsadi ba bone.
εἴ τις ἐστὶν ἀνέγκλητος, μιᾶς γυναικὸς ἀνήρ, τέκνα ἔχων πιστά, μὴ ἐν κατηγορίᾳ ἀσωτίας, ἢ ἀνυπότακτα.
7 Baruti ba, ba tshwanetse ba bo ba le banna ba matshelo a a senang molato gonne ke badiredi ba Modimo. Ba se ka ba nna boikgodiso kgotsa pelo-dikhutshwane; ba se ka ba nna matagwa kgotsa batho ba ba ratang ntwa kgotsa ba ba ratang madi.
δεῖ γὰρ τὸν ἐπίσκοπον ἀνέγκλητον εἶναι ὡς θεοῦ οἰκονόμον, μὴ αὐθάδη, μὴ ὀργίλον, μὴ πάροινον, μὴ πλήκτην, μὴ αἰσχροκερδῆ,
8 Ba tshwanetse go itumelela go amogela baeng mo matlung a bone le go rata gotlhe mo go molemo. Ba tshwanetse go nna banna ba ba nang le ditlhaloganyo tse di itekanetseng, ebile ba sa patike. Ba tshwanetse go nna le megopolo e e lekalekanyeng e e phepha.
ἀλλὰ φιλόξενον, φιλάγαθον, σώφρονα, δίκαιον, ὅσιον, ἐγκρατῆ,
9 Go dumela ga bone mo boammaaruring jo ba bo rutilweng go nonofe go bo go nitame, gore ba tle ba kgone go go ruta ba bangwe le go kaela ba ba sa dumalaneng nabo mo ba leng phoso teng.
ἀντεχόμενον τοῦ κατὰ τὴν διδαχὴν πιστοῦ λόγου, ἵνα δυνατὸς ᾖ καὶ παρακαλεῖν ἐν τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ καὶ τοὺς ἀντιλέγοντας ἐλέγχειν.
10 Gonne go ba le bantsi ba ba ganang go reetsa; mo go boammaaruri tota mo go ba ba reng Bakeresete botlhe ba tshwanetse go obamela melao ya Sejuta. Mme e ke puo ya boeleele; e foufatsa batho gore ba seka ba amogela boammaaruri,
εἰσὶν γὰρ πολλοὶ ἀνυπότακτοι, ματαιολόγοι καὶ φρεναπάται, μάλιστα οἱ ἐκ τῆς περιτομῆς,
11 mme selo se, se tshwanetse go fedisiwa. Malwapa otlhe a setse a bile a furaletse tshegofatso ya Modimo. Baruti ba ba ntseng jaana ba ipatlela madi a lona fela.
οὓς δεῖ ἐπιστομίζειν· οἵτινες ὅλους οἴκους ἀνατρέπουσιν, διδάσκοντες ἃ μὴ δεῖ αἰσχροῦ κέρδους χάριν.
12 Mongwe wa bone, ebong moporofiti yo o tswang kwa Kereta, o buile jaana kaga bone a re, “Batho ba botlhe ba Kereta ke baaki; ba tshwana le diphologolo tse di ditshwakga, tse di tshelelang dimpa tsa tsone fela.”
εἶπέν τις ἐξ αὐτῶν ἴδιος αὐτῶν προφήτης, Κρῆτες ἀεὶ ψεῦσται, κακὰ θηρία, γαστέρες ἀργαί.
13 Mme mo go boammaaruri. Jalo bua le Bakeresete koo, ka tlhwaafalo e e nang le kutlwelo botlhoko ka fa go tlhokegang ka teng go ba nonotsha mo tumelong,
ἡ μαρτυρία αὕτη ἐστὶν ἀληθής· δι᾽ ἣν αἰτίαν ἔλεγχε αὐτοὺς ἀποτόμως, ἵνα ὑγιαίνωσιν ἐν τῇ πίστει,
14 le go ba kganela go tlhola ba nnetse go reetsa dinaane tsa Bajuta le ditaolo tsa batho ba ba furaletseng boammaaruri.
μὴ προσέχοντες Ἰουδαϊκοῖς μύθοις καὶ ἐντολαῖς ἀνθρώπων ἀποστρεφομένων τὴν ἀλήθειαν.
15 Motho yo o pelo e itshekileng o bona bomolemo le bophepa mo go sengwe le sengwe; mme motho yo pelo ya gagwe e bosula ebile e sa ikanyege o bona bosula mo go sengwe le sengwe, gonne mogopolo wa gagwe o o leswe le pelo ya gagwe e e tsogologelang, di baya dilo tsotlhe tse a di bonang le tse a di utlwang mmala o e seng one.
πάντα καθαρὰ τοῖς καθαροῖς· τοῖς δὲ μεμιαμμένοις καὶ ἀπίστοις οὐδὲν καθαρόν, ἀλλὰ μεμίανται αὐτῶν καὶ ὁ νοῦς καὶ ἡ συνείδησις.
16 Batho ba ba ntseng jalo gantsi ba re ba itse Modimo, mme ka go bona ka fa ba itsayang ka teng, ba lemogwa gore ga ba o itse. Ba bodile ebile ga ba laolesege, ba tlhobosegile mo ba se kakeng ba dira tiro epe e e molemo.
θεὸν ὁμολογοῦσιν εἰδέναι, τοῖς δὲ ἔργοις ἀρνοῦνται, βδελυκτοὶ ὄντες καὶ ἀπειθεῖς καὶ πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἀδόκιμοι.
