Titus 3
1 Lizinong nani i ne ati bara anan tigo nin nanan tica tig, inunku vat.
Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
2 Na iwa firin umong b, na iwa su mayerdan ba na isun anit ti bau mine nin dursuzu nteltinu nati udu na ti vat
to slander no one, and to be peaceable and considerate, always showing gentleness toward everyone.
3 Bara nani arik atibite nwa di sa ukpilzu nin salin nunku nat, tiwa cinu hem ti so acin kuna niyizi nin lanzun mman. Tiwa di nanyan likara linanzan nnin shina. Tiwa nari ati bite nin salin laun mmang.
For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, and enslaved to various lusts and pleasures. Living in wickedness and envy, we were loathsome and hated one another.
4 Bara na nshau kibinai Kutelle unan tucu bite nin son suu me udu kitin nit adaa.
But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,
5 Awa tucu nari nnuzun maru upese nin lipesen Nfip mi la, na bara ni tawaa na tisuzu b, bara nani nkunekune mer.
he saved us, not because of any righteous works we had done, but according to his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and the renewal of the Holy Spirit.
6 Kutelle na ni nari Nfip me milau nanya Yesu kristi unan tucu bite.
He richly poured out his Spirit upon us through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 Awa suu nani tina see usortu nanya mbolu Kutell, ti da su anan lin gadu nlai sa ligang nin likara kibinai. (aiōnios g166)
so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
8 Too ti pipinghe tinyinuwari. Ndi nin suu iliru nin likara kibinai bara ele imon, ara ale na uyinna nin Kutelle iceu nibinai mine nitwa ni cine naa ana ceu nbugn min. I le imone caun nin se ugb ardan bara anit vat.
This saying is trustworthy. I want yoʋ to insist on these things, so that those who have put their trust in God may be careful to devote themselves to good works. These things are good and beneficial for people.
9 Bara nani sunan mayardan tilalalng tone nin piziru na kura nin fizu nibinai nnun bara uduk. I leli imone na icau ba nin salin nimong kitene.
But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, quarrels, and disputes about the law, for they are unprofitable and futile.
10 Nari ule na adin dasu nin kosu natii nanya mine iwa malu wunughe atuf urun sa tiba.
Reject a divisive person after a first and second warning.
11 Nin yinu au umusin ntele amlu killau liti me nanya libau ti terd nin tizu kulapi nca nkul.
For yoʋ know that such a person is corrupted and sinful; he is self-condemned.
12 Dana iwa tuu Artamas sa Tychikus ku kiti mine tanmas idak kiti nighe in Nikopolis kikaa nan ina yinin in soo ku kubin tutuwui.
When I send Artemas to yoʋ, or Tychicus, make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.
13 Tanmas ituu Zinas ku unan yiru ndoka. nin Apollo, nin nimong ile na idinin suwe.
Do everything yoʋ can to help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way, and make sure they lack nothing.
14 Na amit bite masu nitwa nicine nanga na nima bizu ti bukata ti kpaikpai bara iwa so sa nitwa ba
Our people must learn to devote themselves to good works in order to meet pressing needs, so that they will not be unfruitful.
15 Vat nale na idi nin me idin lisu min. Lison ale na idi ni su bite nanya yinnu sa uyenu ubolu Kutelle soo nan ghin. usuo nani
All who are with me greet yoʋ. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
