1 Timoteori 5
1 Guiçon ancianoa ezteçala dorpequi reprehendi, baina ezhorta eçac aita beçala: gazteac, anayeac beçala:
Do not reprimand an aged man, but continue pleading with him as if he were your father. Treat the young men as brothers,
2 Emazte çaharrac, amác beçala: gazteac, arrebác beçala castitate gucirequin.
the older women as mothers, the younger women as sisters in all purity.
3 Emazte alhargunac ohoraitzac, eguiazqui alhargun diradenac.
Ever honor widows who are really widows;
4 Baina baldin cembeit emazte alhargunec haourric, edo ilobassoric badu, ikas beçate lehenic berén etche proprira pietateren eracusten, eta burhassoetara ordainaren rendatzen: ecen haour duc on eta placent Iaincoaren aitzinean.
but if any widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn to show their piety first toward their own household, and to make some return to their parents, for that is pleasing in God’s sight.
5 Bada eguiazqui alhargun denac eta bera azquendu içan denac sperança dic Iaincoa baithan, eta perseueratzen dic othoitzetan eta orationetan gau eta egun.
Now she who is a widow indeed, and desolate, has fixed her hope on God, and devotes herself to supplications and prayers, day and night.
6 Baina deliciosqui vici dena, viciric hila duc.
But she who lives in wantonness is dead even while she still lives.
7 Gauça hauc bada denuntiaitzac, irreprehensible diradençát.
Keep admonishing them regarding these things, so that they may be irreproachable.
8 Eta baldin edoceinec beréz eta principalqui etchecoéz artharic ezpadu, fedeaz vkatu dic, eta duc infidela baino gaichtoago.
But if any one fails to provide for his own, and especially for his kindred, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.
9 Emazte alharguna hauta bedi ez hiruroguey vrthe baino gutiagotacoa, senhar baten emazte içana:
A widow, to be placed upon the list, must be not less than sixty years old, and one who has been the wife of but one husband.
10 Obra onetan testimoniage duena: eya haourrac haci dituenez, eya estrangerac alogeatu dituenez, eya sainduén oinac ikuci dituenez, eya affligituac aiutatu dituenez, eya obra on orori ardura iarreiqui içan çayonez.
She must be well reputed for good works, as one who has brought up a family, received strangers with hospitality, washed the feet of the saints, relieved the distressed, and diligently followed every good work.
11 Baina alhargun gazteagoac refusaitzac: ecen bridá largatu dutenean Christen contra, ezcondu nahi dituc:
But exclude from the list the younger widows; for where they have become wanton against Christ, they desire to marry,
12 Bere condemnationea dutelaric, ceren bere lehen fedea iraitzi vkan baituté.
and incur condemnation because they have broken their first troth.
13 Eta guehiago, alfer egoile-ere diradelaric ikasten dié etchez etche ebilten: eta eztituc solament alfer egoile, baina edasle-ere, eta curioso, behar eztiraden gaucéz dadassatelaric.
Moreover, they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house, and are not only idlers, but gossips also, and busybodies, repeating things they ought not.
14 Nahi diat bada gazteac ezcon ditecen, haour daguiten, etchea goberna deçaten, occasioneric batre etsayari eztemoten gaizqui erraiteco.
It is my wish, then, that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule their houses, and give no occasion to our adversary for railing.
15 Ecen ia baztu itzuli içan dituc Satanen ondoan.
For already some widows have gone astray after Satan.
16 Baldin edocein fidelec edo cembeit fidelsac baditu emazte alhargunac, aiuta bitza hec, eta eztadin carga Eliçá, eguiazqui alhargun diradenén asco dençát.
Any believing woman, who has widowed relatives, ought to relieve them and not let the church be burdened with them; so that the church may relieve the really destitute widows.
17 Vngui presiditzen duten Ancianoac ohore doblaren digne estima bitez: principalqui hitzean eta doctrinán trabaillatzen diradenac.
Let the elders who fill their offices well, be held worthy of twofold honor; especially those who have the task of preaching and teaching.
18 Ecen Scripturác erraiten dic, Idi bihitzen ari denari eztraucac ahoa lothuren. Eta, Languilea bere sariaren digne da.
For the Scripture says, You must not muzzle an ox when he is treading out the grain, and The worker is worth his wages.
19 Ancianoaren contra accusationeric ezteçála recebi biga edo hirur testimonioren azpian baicen.
Do not receive an accusation against an elder, except on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
20 Bekatu eguiten dutenac, gucién aitzinean reprehenditzac, berceac-ere baldur diradençát.
Rebuke offenders publicly, so that others also may take warning.
21 Requeritzen aut Iaincoaren eta Iesus Christ Iaunaren eta Aingueru elegituén aitzinean, gauça hauc beguira ditzán, bata berceari preferitu gabe: deus eguiten eztuala alde batera makurtuz.
I charge you solemnly in the presence of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ and of the elect angels, that you observe these things without prejudice against any man, and do nothing out of partiality.
22 Escuac eztietzoala nehori bertan eçar, eta ezteçála communica berceren bekatuetan, eure buruä pur beguireçac.
Never ordain any one hastily, nor take part in the wrong-doing of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Hemendic harát ezteçála vric edan, baina mahatsarno gutibatez vsat eçac, eure estomacagatic, eta eure eritassun vssuacgatic.
Do not continue to drink nothing but water, but take a little wine for your stomach’s sake, and your frequent attacks of illness.
24 Guiçon batzuén bekatuac aitzinean agueri dituc, eta aitzinean dihoaçac condemnationetan: eta batzuey ondoan-ere iarreiquiten ciaiztec.
Some men’s sins are notorious, and lead them straight on the way to condemnation; but others’ sins follow them up.
25 Halaber obra onac-ere aitzinean agueri dituc: eta bercelaco diraden obrác, ecin estal daitezquec.
So also noble deeds are conspicuous, and even if otherwise, they cannot be kept hidden.
