5 Causa hunegatic vtzi vkan aut Cretan goitico diraden gaucén corrigitzen continua deçançát, eta ordena ditzán hiriz hiri Ancianoac, nic ordenatu drauadan beçala:
The reason I left you in Crete was that you would set in order what was unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.
6 Baldin cembeit bada irreprehensibleric emazte bakoitz baten senhar, haour fidelac dituelaric, ez dissolutionez accusatuac, edo rangea ecin daitezquenac.
An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, having children who are believers and who are not open to accusation of indiscretion or insubordination.
7 Ecen Ipizpicuac behar dic içan irreprehensible, Iaincoaren etchearen gobernari anço, eztén porfidioso, ez coleric, ez mahatsarnoari emana, ez vkaldicari, ez irabazte deshonestaren guthicioso:
As God’s steward, an overseer must be above reproach—not self-absorbed, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not greedy for money.
8 Baina estrangerén ostatuz gogotic recebiçale, onén onhetsle, çuhur, iusto, saindu, moderatu:
Instead, he must be hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined.
9 Instructionearen araura den hitz fidelaren eduquile, doctrina sanoz exhorta-ere ahal deçançát, eta contrastatzen diradenac vençut.
He must hold firmly to the faithful word as it was taught, so that he can encourage others by sound teaching and refute those who contradict it.
10 Ecen baduc anhitz rangea ecin daitenic eta vanoqui minçaçaleric, eta adimenduén seduciçaleric, principalqui Circoncisionetic diradenac: hæy ahoa boçatu behar ciayec:
For many are rebellious and full of empty talk and deception, especially those of the circumcision,
11 Hec etcheac ossoqui erautzen citié, behar eztiraden gauçác iracasten dituztela irabazte deshonestaren causaz.
who must be silenced. For the sake of dishonorable gain, they undermine entire households and teach things they should not.
12 Erran dic hayén arteco cembeitec, hayén propheta propriac, Cretatarrac bethi gueçurti, bestia gaitzac, sabel naguiac.
As one of their own prophets has said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.”
13 Testimoniage haur eguiazcoa duc: causa hunegatic reprehenditzac hec viciqui, fedean sano diradençát:
This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sternly, so that they will be sound in the faith
14 Behatzen eztutelaric Iuduén fabletara, eta eguiatic aldaratzen diraden guiçonén manuetara.
and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of men who have rejected the truth.
15 Gauça guciac chahuendaco chahu dituc baina satsuendaco eta infidelendaco eztuc deus, chahuric, aitzitic dituc satsu hayén adimendua eta conscientiá.
To the pure, all things are pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure. Indeed, both their minds and their consciences are defiled.
16 Professione eguiten dié Iaincoa eçagutzen dutela, baina obraz vkatzen dié, abominable diradelaric eta desobedient eta obra on orotara reprobatuac.
They profess to know God, but by their actions they deny Him. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit for any good deed.
