Titu 2
1 Tedae nang tah aka cuem thuituennah neh aka rhoep te thui lah.
Now you, speak the things that suit sound doctrine:
2 Patong rhoek te aka khuel la, a hinom la, a cuepmueih la, tangnah dongah sading la, lungnah, uehnah neh om saeh.
older men are to be sober, dignified, prudent, sound in the faith, in love and in endurance;
3 Te vanbangla a ham rhoek te omih ah hingcim la om saeh, hmuiyoih boel saeh, misurtui kah sal muep bi boel saeh, olthen aka thuituen la om uh saeh.
similarly older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is good
4 Te daengah ni tanoe rhoek te, va aka lungnah, ca aka lungnah la om ham a rhaengtuk thaihawn uh eh.
—so that they may instruct the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 A cuepmueih la, a cuem la, imkhoem then neh a va taengah boe a ngai. Te daengah ni Pathen kah olka te a soehsal pawt eh.
to be prudent, pure, good homemakers, subordinating themselves to their own husbands, so that the Word of God not be maligned.
6 Te vanbangla cadong tanoe rhoek te a muet uh ham hloephoelh lah.
Similarly, exhort the young men to be self-controlled,
7 A cungkuem ah namah te bibi then kah mueimae la tueng lah. Thuituennah dongah rhuepomnah neh hinomnah tueng sak.
in all things presenting yourself as an example of good works: showing integrity, dignity and incorruptibility in your teaching
8 Olka te a koemboek la thuem saeh. Te daengah ni aka kingkalh loh yak vetih mamih te a thae la thui ham a khueh pawt eh.
—healthy speech, beyond reproach—so that the opponent may be put to shame, having nothing slighting to say about us.
9 Sal rhoek te soeprhaep boeih ah a boeikung taengah boengai saeh lamtah a kolo la om saeh, boekoek boel saeh.
Exhort slaves to subordinate themselves to their own owners, to be well pleasing in all things, not talking back,
10 Thuhrhawk boel saeh. Tedae a tangnah te cungkuem dongah a then la tueng coeng. Te daengah ni a cungkuem dongah mamih khangkung Pathen kah thuituennah neh a thoeihcam eh.
not pilfering but showing total trustworthiness, so as to adorn the doctrine of our Savior God in everything.
11 Pathen kah lungvatnah loh hlang boeih taengah khangnah te a thoeng sak coeng.
For the saving grace of God has appeared for all men,
12 Hlangrhong neh lunglai kah hoehhamnah te hnawt ham mamih n'toel coeng. Kumhal ah a cuepmueih la, a tiktam la, hingcim la hing uh pawn sih. (aiōn g165)
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live prudently, righteously and godly in this present age, (aiōn g165)
13 Ngaiuepnah yoethen neh boeilen Pathen kah thangpomnah khaw, mamih khangkung Jesuh Khrih kah a phoenah te n'lamtawn.
looking for the blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
14 Amah loh mamih yueng la amah paeuh. Te daengah ni mamih te olaeknah cungkuem lamloh n'tlan tih amah ham a khueh pilnam, bibi then kah aka hmae te n'cilpoe eh.
who gave Himself for us, so that He might redeem us from all lawlessness and purify for Himself a special people, zealous for good works.
15 Hekah he na thui phoeiah hloephoelh lamtah olpaek boeih neh toeltham lah. Nang te n'hnoel boel saeh.
Speak these things, whether you exhort or reprove, with all authority. Let no one disdain you.
