Tiito 3
1 uvakumbusie kukujisia ku valolelesi nuvutavulua, kukuvitikila nakuva tayale kum'bombo inofu.
Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and authorities, to obey rulers, to be ready for every good work,
2 vakumbusie avanhu navangam'bombelaghe umunhu ghwoghwoni uvuvivi, navangavisaghe na mabatu, vavapele inafasi avanhu avange kuvomba inyamulo, nakusona ulujisio kuvanhu vooni.
to revile no one, not to be contentious, but gentle, showing all meekness to all men.
3 ulwakuva najusue tulyale namassaghe gha vusofi naghavugalusi. tulyale muvusofi nakuvombua vasung'ua va noghelua nyinga ni tulikalile muvwifu nuvuhosi. tulyakalisie nakukalalilana.
For we ourselves also were formerly foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 neke un'siki ghuno ulusungu lwa nguluve umpoki ghwitu nulughano lwake kuvanhu panolulyavonike.
But when the kindness and philanthropy of God our Savior appeared, he saved us,
5 nalulyale mumaghendele ghwitu gha kyang'ani ghanotuvombile, looli alyatupokile kulusungu lwake. alyatupokile kwakutuvalasia nakuholua vupya nakutendua vupya mwa uMhepo uMwimike.
not by works of righteousness which we had done, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 Unguluve akamulaghe uMhepo Umwimike kuvwinga kukilila uYesu Kilisite umpoki ghwitu.
which he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;
7 akavombile ndikio neke kuti, tungave tuvalilue ikyang'ani kulusungu lwake. tuvisaghe vahangilanisi mukyang'ani vwa vwumi vwa kusila nakusila. (aiōnios g166)
that, being justified by his grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
8 iji je mhola jakwitikika. nikuvalonda mughajove muvukangasio agha, neke kuti vala vanovikumwitikila UNguluve vavisaghe nuluvumbulilo muvufumbue mu mbombo inofu sinoakasivikile pamaso ghavo. imbombo isi nofu siliniluvumbulilo kulyusue twevoni.
This saying is true, and in respect to these things, I will that you affirm strongly, in order that those who have believed in God may be careful to practice good works: these are the things that are honorable and profitable for men.
9 pe mulekaghe pikwingila mulukani ulyakipumbafu, ifya fipango, amasindano, amabatu mundaghilo. isio sisila nambe luvumbulilo.
But foolish questions and genealogies and strifes and contentions about the law, avoid; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 mun'kanaghe ghwoghwoni junoisababisia mupalasane kati jinu. pepano kyande muva mumpavile ulwakwanda na kavili.
A man that is a sectary, reject, after the first and second admonition,
11 kagulagha kuti umunhu ghwandikio ajilekile isila ija kyang'ani napivomba isambi nakukujihigha jujuo.
knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.
12 kyalenikun'sung'a kulyuve urtemi nu tikiko vomba ng'aning'ani ghwise kulyune kuno ku Nikopoli namwile kukukala uns'ikighwa mepo.
When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, hasten to come to me at Nicopolis; for I have determined to spend the winter there.
13 vomba ng'aning'ani un'sung'e u Sena umanyi ghwa ndaghilo nu Apolo kisila kupungukivua nikinu.
Conduct Zenas the lawyer, and Apollos on their journey with care, that nothing may be wanting to them.
14 avanhu vitu lughanile pimanyila kutighana mu imbombo inofu sinosikola amanogheluo neke kuti navangisaghe kuva navihola imeke.
Let our people also learn to practice good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 vooni vano valipalikimo nune nikuvahungila. vahungilaghe vala vanovatughanile mu lwitiluvisaghe numue mweni.
All that are with me salute you. Salute those who love us in faithfulness. Grace be with you all. Amen.
