Tiitos 1
1 Anigoo Bawlos ah oo Ilaah addoon u ah, Ciise Masiixna rasuul u ah, siday yihiin iimaanka kuwa Ilaah doortay iyo aqoonta runta oo ah xagga cibaadada,
Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, (according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledgment of the truth, which is according to godliness;
2 iyagoo rajaynaya nolosha weligeed ah oo Ilaaha aan beenta sheeginu u ballanqaaday waayadii hore hortood, (aiōnios g166)
in hope of eternal life, which God, who can not lie, promised before the times of the ages-- (aiōnios g166)
3 laakiinse wakhtiyadiisii goonida ahaa uu hadalkiisii ku muujiyey wacdigii laygu ammaaneeyey sida Ilaaha Badbaadiyeheenna ahu u amray,
who has now manifested his word, at the proper season, by the proclamation with which I am intrusted, according to the appointment of God our Saviour; )
4 waxaan warqaddan u qorayaa Tiitos oo ah wiilkayga runta ah xagga iimaanka inaga dhexeeya. Nimco iyo nabadu ha kaaga yimaadeen Ilaaha Aabbaha ah iyo Badbaadiyeheenna Ciise Masiix.
to Titus, my genuine son, according to the common faith: Favor, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour.
5 Sababtaas daraaddeed ayaan Kereetee kaaga dhex tegey inaad hagaajisid waxyaalaha hadhay iyo inaad waayeello magaalo walba ka dooratid sidaan kuugu amray,
For this purpose, I left you in Crete, that you might set in order the things left unfinished, and to ordain seniors in every city, as I commanded you.
6 hadduu mid waliba yahay nin aan ceeb lahayn, oo naag keliya qaba, oo leh carruur rumaysan, oo aan rabshad iyo caasinimo lagu dacwaynin.
If any one be without blame, the husband of one wife, having believing children, not accused of riotous living, nor unruly.
7 Waayo, hoggaamiyaha kiniisaddu waa inuu ceeb la'aado sida wakiilka Ilaah; oo uusan madax adkaan, oo uusan camal fududaan, oo uusan sakhraan noqon, oo uusan gacan fududaan, oo uusan faa'iidada ceebta ah jeclaan,
For a bishop should be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not prone to anger, not given to wine, not a striker, not one who makes gain by base methods;
8 laakiinse waa inuu ahaado mid martida soo dhoweeya, oo wanaag jecel, oo feeyigaan, oo xaq ah, oo quduus ah, oo iscelin kara;
but hospitable; a lover of good men, prudent, just, holy, temperate;
9 isagoo xajinaya hadalka aaminka ah oo ah sidii loo baray, inuu awoodo inuu cilmiga runta ah ku waaniyo oo ku canaanto kuwa muranka miidhan ah.
holding fast the true doctrine, as he has been taught; that he may be able, by wholesome teaching, both to exhort and to confute the gain-sayers.
10 Waayo, waxaa jira caasiyiin badan, iyo kuwa hadal xun ku hadla, iyo khaa'inno, oo khusuusan waa kuwa gudan.
For there are many unruly and foolish talked and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
11 Kuwaas afkooda waa in la xidho, maxaa yeelay, waa kuwa reero dhan gembiya iyagoo faa'iidada ceebta ah aawadeed u baraya waxyaalo aan waajib ahayn inay baraan.
whose mouths must be stopped; who subvert whole families, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of sordid gain.
12 Mid iyaga ka mid ahaa oo nebigoodii ahaa ayaa wuxuu yidhi, Reer Kereetee weligood waa beenaalayaal, iyo dugaag xun, iyo kuwo cir weyn oo caajisiin ah.
One of themselves, a prophet of their own, has said, "The Cretans are always liars, evil wild beasts, lazy bodies."
13 Markhaatigaasu waa run. Sababtaas aawadeed aad u canaano iyaga inay iimaanka si run ah ugu socdaan
This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them sharply, that they may be healthy in the faith--
14 iyagoo aan dhegaysanayn sheekooyinka Yuhuudda iyo amarrada dadka runta ka leexanaya.
not giving heed to Jewish fables, and precepts of men who pervert the truth.
15 Kuwa daahirka ah wax waluba waa u daahir, laakiin kuwa nijaasaysan oo aan rumaysadka lahayn waxba daahir uma aha, laakiinse kaskooda iyo niyadooduba waa nijaasoobeen.
To the pure, all meats are pure; but to the polluted and unbelieving, nothing is pure; for both their understanding and conscience are polluted.
16 Waxay afka ka qirtaan inay Ilaah yaqaaniin, laakiin camalladooday isaga kaga hor yimaadaan, iyagoo karaahiyo iyo caasiyiin ah, oo xagga shuqul wanaagsan oo dhan laga nacay.
They profess to know God; but by works they deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.
