Titu 3
1 Amih te boeilu rhoek taengah, saithainah taengah, boengai ham, olngai ham, bibi then boeih dongah sikim la om ham thoelh pah.
Remind them to be subject to principalities and authorities, to obey rule, to be ready to every good work,
2 Soehsal uh boel saeh. Kodo neh oldip kadip la om ham, hlang boeih taengah muelhtuetnah boeih tueng sak.
to speak evil of no one, not to be quarrelsome—gentle, showing all meekness to all men,
3 Hnukbuet ah mamih khaw hlangang altha la ng'om uh tih n'rhaithi uh. Hoehhamnah neh omthenbawnnah rhoepsaep dongah sal m'bi uh. Phayoenah neh uethnetnah dongah kho n'sak uh. Khat neh khat rhalawt la hmuhuet uh thae.
for we, also, were once thoughtless, disobedient, led astray, serving manifold desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, odious—hating one another;
4 Tedae mamih khangkung Pathen kah rhennah neh lungnah te a thoeng vaengah,
and when the kindness and the love to men of God our Savior appeared
5 mamih loh duengnah dongah bibi n'saii uh nen moenih. Tedae amah kah rhennah vanbangla koepcunnah dongkah silhnah neh Cim Mueihla kah tlaihvongnah rhangnen ni mamih n'khang.
(not by works that [are] in righteousness that we did but according to His kindness), He saved us, through a bathing of regeneration, and a renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 Tekah te mamih khangkung Jesuh Khrih rhangneh mamih soah kodam la han lun coeng.
which He poured on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 Te daengah ni Boeipa kah lungvatnah rhangneh n'tang uh coeng tih dungyan hingnah kah ngaiuepnah dongah rhopangkung la n'om uh coeng. (aiōnios g166)
that having been declared righteous by His grace, we may become heirs according to the hope of continuous life. (aiōnios g166)
8 Hekah olka tah a uepom. Te dongah nang khaw cak sak la ka cai. Te daengah ni Pathen aka tangnah rhoek loh bibi then tuuk ham a ngaithuen uh eh. Hekah he then tih hlang ham hoeikhang la om.
The word [is] steadfast; and concerning these things I intend you to affirm fully, that they may be thoughtful, to be leading in good works—who have believed God; these are the good and profitable things to men,
9 Tedae aka ang kah olpungnah khaw, rhuirhong khaw, tohhaemnah neh olming kongah rhalthohnah khaw rhael. Amih te aka hloo neh a honghi ni.
but stand away from foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about law—for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 Hlaephlae hlang te vai phoeiah a pabae la rhalrhingnah pae lamtah hnawt.
Reject a heretical man, after a first and second admonition,
11 Tebang tah boe tih tholh tila ming. Aka boe la om coeng.
having known that he has been subverted who [is] such, and sins, being self-condemned.
12 Nang taengla Artemas nim, Tukhiko nim kan tueih vaengah Nikopoli ah kamah taengla pawk ham te na haam mako. Te rhoek ah sikca boek ham ka cai.
When I will send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
13 Olming Zenas neh Apollos te ngahngah thak. Te daengah ni a vawtthoek pawt eh.
Diligently send forth Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way, that nothing to them may be lacking,
14 A ngoengaih tangkik vanbangla mah rhoek long khaw bibi then tuuk ham cang van saeh. Te daengah ni a tlongtlai la a om uh pawt eh.
and let them learn—ours also—to be leading in good works to the necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 Kai taengah aka om rhoek boeih loh nang kut n'tuuk uh. Tangnah dongah mamih aka lungnah rhoek te kuttu. Lungvatnah tah nangmih boeih taengah om saeh.
All those with me greet you. Greet those cherishing us in faith. The grace [is] with you all!
