Titus 3
1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
Atorò iareo ty hiambane amo mpifeheo, naho amo bei’eo, tsy hanjehatse, vaho halisa amy ze hene fitoloñan-tsoa,
2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility towards all men.
le tsy hañìnje ndra ia’ia, tsy hitrobo, fa ho lèm-po, hiasy ze hene ondaty.
3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
Toe ni-seretse ka tika taolo, nanjehatse, finitake, nondevozen-kadrao naho fañiriañe, nañavelo an-ka-lo-tserehañe naho fihàñañe, nirihy, vaho nifankalaiñe.
4 But when the kindness of God our Saviour and his love towards mankind appeared,
Fe niboake ty fatarihan’ Añahare Mpandrombak’ antika naho mpikoko ondatio.
5 not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the mikveh of rebirth and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
Le rinomba’e, tsy ty amo sata soa nanoen-tika an-kavañonañeo, fa i fiferenaiña’ey, am-pandroañe i fisamaham-baoy naho ami’ty fañavaoa’ i Arofo Masiñey
6 whom he poured out on us richly through Yeshua the Messiah our Saviour;
ze nadoba’e aman-tikañe añam’ Iesoà Norizañe Mpandrombak’ antikañey,
7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
le itika nivantañeñe amy hasoa’ey, ro nanoeñe mpandova ty amy fitamàñe o haveloñe nainai’eo. (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;
Tsara-to zay, aa ty amy tsaraeñe, le noko te isaontsia’o am-patokisañe, soa te himanea’ o mpiato aman’ Añahareo ty hitomitse, hitoloñe sata soa. Mete zay, toe mahasoa ze hene ondaty.
9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
Fe iholiaro o ontane gegeo, o toñon-droaeo, o ali-vavao, naho ty sotasota ty amy Hake, ie hatsivokarañe naho hakoahañe.
10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,
Aitò t’indaty mampiriaria ie fa nerete’o in-droe ndra in-draike,
11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
ampahafohino t’ie mengoke naho mpandilatse vaho mamà-batañe.
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
Naho hahitriko mb’ama’o mb’eo t’i Artema ndra i Tikiko le milozoha lia mb’amako e Nikopolia mb’eo, fa sinafiriko ty hitoboke ao te asotry.
13 Send Zenas the Torah scholar and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
Maringata hampionjone’o mb’ eo t’i Zena mpañoke Hake naho i Apolosy soa tsy eo ty ho paiae’iareo.
14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
Hàmake te hizatse sata soa o mpiaman-tikañeo, hañeneke o raha paiañeo, tsy mone tsy hahavokatse.
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
Mañontane azo ze hene amako atoa. Salamao ze mikoko antika amy fatokisañey ao. Hasoa ama’ areo iaby.
