Titus 3
1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
E PAIPAI aku ia lakou e hoolohe i na moi a me na'lii, a e malama hoi i na luna, a e noho makaukau i na hana maikai a pau;
2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.
Aole e olelo ino hoi ia hai, e hakaka ole, e akakuu, e hoike ana i ke akahai i na kanaka a pau.
3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
No ka mea, o kakou kekahi i naaupo i kekahi manawa, i hookuli hoi, i auwana hoi, e hookauwa ana mamuli o kela kuko a o keia kuko, o kela lealea a o keia lealea, e noho ana me ka huhu, a me ka huwa, i hoowahawahaia, a e hoowahawaha ana kekahi i kekahi.
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,
Aka, i ka ikea ana mai o ka lokomaikai a me ke aloha mai o ko kakou Ola, o ke Akua, i kanaka,
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,
Aole no na hana pono a kakou i hana'i, aka, ma kona aloha wale, ua hoola oia ia kakou, ma ka holoi hoohanau hou ana, a ma ka hana hou ia e ka Uhane Hemolele,
6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
Ana i ninini nui mai ai maluna iho o kakou, ma o Iesu Kristo la o ko kakou Ola;
7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
I lilo kakou, i ko kakou hoaponoia ana ma kona aloha wale mai, i mau hooilina ma ka manaolana o ke ola mau loa. (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;
He olelo oiaio ia, a o keia mau mea ka'u e makemake nei ia oe e hooiaio mau aku i malama ka poe i manaoio i ke Akua e hoomau lakou ma na hana maikai He maikai, he pono hoi keia mau mea no na kanaka.
9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
E ku mamao aku oe i na ninau lapuwale, a mo na kuauhau, a me na hoopaapaa, a me ka hakaka ana no ke kanawai; no ka mea, he mau mea lapuwale ia e pono ole ai.
10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,
O ke kanaka e ao kuee ana, o kau ia e hoonoho aku iwaho, mahope iho o ka mua a me ka lua o ke ao pono ana aku ia ia:
11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
Me ka ike hoi, ua hookahuliia oia, a ua hana hewa hoi, a ua hoa hewa hoi ia ia iho.
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
Aia hoouna aku au ia Aretema paha, ia Tukiko paha ion la, e hoo ikaika oe e hele mai io'u nei i Ni kopoli; no ka mea, o ko'u manao e noho malaila i ka hooilo.
13 Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
E kokua maikai oe ia Zena i ke kakaolelo, a me Apolo, i ko laua holo ana mai, i hemahema ole laua.
14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
E aho hoi e ao ko kakou poe e hana mau i na hana maikai, i na mea e pono ai, i lilo ole lakou i mea hua ole.
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
Ke aloha aku nei ka poe a pau me au nei ia oe. E aloha oe i ka poe i aloha mai ia kakou ma ka manaoio. E alohaia mai oukou a pau loa. Amene.
