Titus 2
1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
Ou menm, se pou tou sa w'ap moutre moun dakò ak bon mesaj la.
2 that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in perseverance,
Pale ak granmoun gason yo pou yo fè tout bagay ak mezi, pou yo fè respè tèt yo, pou yo kenbe tèt yo anplas, pou yo gen yon konfyans solid nan Bondye, pou yo gen renmen nan kè yo ak anpil pasyans.
3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good,
Pale ak granmoun fanm yo tou pou yo viv tankou moun k'ap viv pou Bondye tout bon vre. Yo pa dwe nan fè tripotaj, ni nan twò renmen gwòg. Okontrè, se pou yo bay bon egzanp.
4 that they may train the young wives to love their husbands, to love their children,
Konsa, lòt jenn medam yo va aprann nan men yo ki jan pou yo renmen pitit yo ak mari yo,
5 to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God’s word may not be blasphemed.
ki jan pou yo kenbe tèt yo anplas, pou yo pa nan dezòd, pou yo konn okipe kay yo byen, pou yo aji ak bon kè, pou yo soumèt devan mari yo. Konsa, moun p'ap ka pale pawòl Bondye a mal.
6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be sober minded.
Konsa tou, pale ak jenn moun yo pou yo kenbe tèt yo anplas.
7 In all things show yourself an example of good works. In your teaching, show integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,
Ou menm, nan tout bagay, se pou ou bay bon egzanp: toujou fè sa ki byen. Lè w'ap moutre yo kichòy, se pou ou serye: ba yo verite a san chache twonpe yo.
8 and soundness of speech that can’t be condemned, that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.
Pale pawòl ki dakò ak verite a pou yo pa kritike ou. Konsa, lènmi nou yo va wont. Yo p'ap jwenn anyen pou yo di sou nou.
9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters and to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting,
Pale ak domestik yo pou yo soumèt devan mèt yo, pou yo fè mèt yo plezi nan tout bagay. Yo pa fèt pou nan bay repons ak yo.
10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
Ni yo pa dwe nan pran sa ki pa pou yo. Okontrè, se pou yo serye tout bon nan tou sa y'ap fè. Konsa y'a fè respè mesaj Bondye, delivrans nou an, nan tout bagay.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
Bondye fè konnen favè l' pou tout moun ka delivre.
12 instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; (aiōn g165)
Favè Bondye a mande nou pou nou kite move lavi nou t'ap mennen an ansanm ak tout move lanvi ki nan lemonn, pou nou ka mennen yon lòt lavi ki kontwole, ki dwat, ki devwe pou Bondye pandan nou sou latè a. (aiōn g165)
13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
Se konsa li moutre nou pou nou viv pandan n'ap tann benediksyon li te pwomèt nou yo, lè bèl pouvwa Jezikri, Bondye nou ak Delivrans nou, va parèt.
14 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.
Li te asepte mouri pou nou pou li te ka delivre nou anba mechanste, pou li te fè nou tounen yon pèp ki nan kondisyon pou sèvi li, ki rele li pa li, epi ki toujou pare pou fè sa ki byen.
15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.
Se bagay sa yo pou ou moutre moun yo. Otorite yo ba ou a se pou ankouraje sa ki bezwen ankouraje, pou rale zòrèy sa ki bezwen gen zòrèy yo rale. Pa bay pesonn okazyon meprize ou.
