Titus 3

1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

Ya tiadi'bi ban yi tieni bi yudanba yeni bi yikodanba n bua yaali, ki cɔlni 'bi k go yi bobni i bà ki cegini tuonŋanli kuli sɔnma po.

2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.

Tiadi'bi ki ban daa maadi mabiigu nulo po, ki lɔgidi a kunkɔna, ki cɔlni i lieba, ki gɔ jiini i bà i lieba kani.

3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

Ti mo bo ki cengi niba k gɔ ki cɔlni. K bodi kaa ji yeni ti bà mi cacagnma nni yeni u manu nni. Ti bo ye ti biidi nni yeni ki nanga nni. Ti bo k bua ti lieba ki go pia ti yantiabiidi ti lieba po.

4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

Ama u Tienu ti gaaka numɔndugu po yeni o buama po,

5 not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

O gaa ti po ki laa tie ti tuoŋanma yeni ti mɔnkundi po ka ama o sugli po. O gaa ti mi ñinwulma malma nni yeni fuoŋanma lebidima nni.

6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;

Jesu Kristi ti gaaka po, u Tienu yadi fuonŋanma ti po ke li yabi.

7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

O bo tieli li ki dugi k o ŋanbidi po tin mɔ n tua faadiila li manpaanli nni. (aiōnios g166)

8 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;

Sawalo ne tie ti dugi o po i. N bua k ŋan yaa maadi ki dugi li bona po i. Lan fidi yaala ki yaaba n dugi uTienu po n tieni a bonŋana b liigi.

9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

Ama lɔgidi yikodi makpaga, a kunkɔna, yeni u buolu paadnma. Li tie ya bona ki dagidi yenli k gɔ ki mɔni

10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,

fagini a bà yeni ya daano maadi ki guani ledi ki bua mi paadinma ki siiga nni.

11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.

Ki bani ke o nulo ne ki tuagi u sansiedu, k o tie ti biidi ki go bu ki cuo o bà

12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.

Mini n ba ti sɔni ŋa Artmasi bii Tiki, kagini a bà ki cua n kani Nikopoli min cuo ke n baa ye naani gu faawaagu

13 Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.

kagini ki baa yeni Zenasi, yiko gbanbandiciamo, yeni Apolosi, k lba n daa pɔdi.

14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.

Ti niba ba bangi a tuoŋanma sɔnmi ki fidi ñani i payiani yia mɔni ki daa tie ya niba kan fidi tieni bonli lan ba binmi

15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.

Yaaba n ye ne kuli fuondi ŋa. Fuondi yaaba n bua ti ki gɔ dugi ti po.
