Titus 3
1 Remind them to respect and obey the rulers and authorities, to be ready for every kind of good work, to slander no one, to avoid quarrelling,
Par ne ji mondo ochiw luor ne jotelo. Nyisgi mondo giwinj chik kendo mondo gibed moikore ne timo gimoro amora maber,
2 to be reasonable, and under all circumstances to show a gentle spirit with all.
kik giketh nying ngʼato angʼata, gibed joma ohero kwe, kendo ma paro mar konyo jowetegi, ka ginyiso muolo madier ne ji duto.
3 There was a time when we ourselves were foolish, disobedient, misled, enslaved to all kinds of desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hating ourselves and hating one another.
Nikech wan bende chon ne wan joma ofuwo ma ok winj wach kendo wasumbini mag kit gombo gi mor mayoreyore mag ringruok. Ngimawa mapile nopongʼ gi ichlit gi nyiego; ka ji mon kodwa kendo wan bende onge winjruok e kindwa.
4 But, when the kindness of God our Saviour and his love for humanity appeared, he saved us,
To kane ngʼwono kod hera mar Nyasaye ma Jawarwa ofwenyore to nowarowa.
5 not as the result of any righteous actions that we had done, but due to his mercy. He saved us though the washing of rebirth and renewal by the power of the Holy Spirit,
Ne ok owarowa nikech tim moro makare mane wasetimo, to ne owarowa mana nikech ngʼwonone owuon. Nowarowa gi luok mane Roho Maler okelonwago ngima manyien kod nywol manyien.
6 which he poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour –
Kuom Yesu Kristo ma Jawarwa Nyasaye noolonwa Roho mogundho,
7 so that, having been put right with God through his grace, we become heirs to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
mondo ka oseketwa kare kuom ngʼwonone to wabed jocham mwandune, ka wan gi geno mar yudo ngima mochwere. (aiōnios g166)
8 This saying is trustworthy! And it is on these subjects that I want you to lay special emphasis, so that those who have learned to trust in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing good. Such subjects are excellent in themselves, and of benefit to all.
Wachni en wach madiera. Kendo adwaro ni ijiw wechegi mondo joma oseketo genogi kuom Nyasaye otangʼ mondo gichiwre mar timo gik mabeyo. Gigi gin gik malongʼo chuth, kendo kelo konyruok ne ji duto.
9 But have nothing to do with foolish controversies, or with genealogies, or with quarrels, or fights about the Law. They are useless and futile.
To pogri gi mbekni mofuwo gi sigendini mag anywola gi mino wach kod dhawo kuom weche mag chike, nikech gik ma kamago ok kel konyruok kendo gionge tich.
10 If someone is causing divisions among you then, after giving them a second warning, excuse yourself from them.
Siem ngʼat makelo pogruok dichiel, to kisesiemo ngʼat makelo pogruok diriyo to pogri kode chuth.
11 You can be sure that such a person has forsaken the truth and is in the wrong. They stand self-condemned.
Bed kingʼeyo gadiera ni ngʼama kamano en Jaricho ma pache okethore kendo en ngʼama ketho kongʼeyo.
12 As soon as I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, join me as quickly as possible at Nicopolis, for I have arranged to spend the winter there.
Bangʼe kaseoro Artemas kata Tukiko iri, to item matek mondo ibi ira piyo Nikopoli, nikech asechano mar bet kuno kinde chwiri.
13 Do your best to help Zenas, the teacher of the Law, and Apollos, on their way, and see that they want for nothing.
Tim matek mondo ikony Zena ngʼat molony e chik kod Apolo e wuodhgi, kendo ne ni giyudo gik moko duto magidwaro.
14 Let all our people learn to devote themselves to doing good, so as to meet the most pressing needs, and that their lives may not be unfruitful.
Jowa nyaka puonjre keto chunygi kuom timo gik mabeyo, mondo eka giyud gik ma gikonyorego e ngimagi mapile kendo kik gidagi e ngima ma ok kel konyruok.
15 All who are with me here send you their greeting. Give my greeting to our friends in the faith. God bless you all.
Ji duto man koda ooroni mos. Mosnwa joma oherowa kuom yie. Ngʼwono obed kodu uduto.
