Titus 1
1 Paul, a bondman of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the chosen of God, and the knowledge of truth according to piety,
Paulo, n'tumishi ghwa K'yara ni n'tume ghwa Yesu Kristu, kwa imani jha bhateule bha K'yara ni maarifa gha bhukweli jhajhileta bhutauwa.
Bhajhele mu tumaini lya bhusima bhwa milele ambabho K'yara jhaibhwesya lepi kudeta bhudesi abhuahidi kuhoma milele. (aiōnios g166)
3 but in his own times he made known his word by preaching, which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,
Kwa bhwakati muafaka, alifunuili lilobhi lya muene mu ujumbe bhwa anipelili nene kuhubiri. Jhinilondekeghe kukheta naha kwa amri jha K'yara mwokozi bhitu.
4 to Titus, a genuine child according to the common faith: Grace, mercy, peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
Kwa Tito, mwana ghwa bhukweli mu imani jha tete. Neema, k'esa ni amani kuhoma kwa K'yara Dadi ni Yesu Kristu mwokozi ghwetu.
5 I left thee behind in Crete on account of this: That thou should set in order the things lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded thee,
Kwandabha ejhe nakulekili Krete, kujha ughatanganesiajhi mambo ghoha ghaghajhele ghabelikukamilika ni kubheka bhaseya bha kanisa kwa kila mji kama kyanikulaghisi.
6 if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having believing children, not with an accusation of debauchery or insubordinate.
Mzee ghwa kanisa lazima asijhi ni lawama, n'gosi ghwa n'dala mmonga, jhaajhele ni bhana bhaaminifu bhabhashuhudibhu lepi mabhobhi au bhabhabeli kujha ni nidhamu.
7 For the overseer must be blameless as a steward of God, not self-willed, not prone to anger, not a drunkard, not a fighter, not greedy of base gain,
Ni kinofu kwa muangalizi ghwa K'yara, asijhi ni lawama. Asijhi munu ghwa njuegho au jhaabelili kwizuila. Lazima asijhi njonjofu ghwa ligoga, asijhi ndefi, asijhi munu ghwa kusababisya ngondo, na asijhi ni tamaa.
8 but a lover of strangers, a lover of good, serious minded, just, devout, self-controlled,
Badala jhiake: ajhelayi munu n'karibisiajhi, jhailonda bhwema. Lazima ajhelayi munu mwenye luhala luoha, mwenye haki, mcha K'yara, jhaikitawala muene.
9 holding firm the faithful word according to the teaching, so that he may also be able to exhort by the sound doctrine, and to correct those who contradict.
Jhaibhwesya kujhemelela mafundisu gha bhukweli ghaghamanyisibhu, ili abhwesiajhi kubhapela muoyo kwa mafundisu manofu na jhaibhwesya kubharekebisya bhoha bhabhakampela.
10 For there are also many insubordinate men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those from circumcision,
Kwa kujha bhajhe bhaasi bhamehele, hasa bhala bha tohara. Malobhi gha bhene gha bhukonyofu. Bhikofya ni kubhalongosya bhanu mu bhukonyofu.
11 who must be muzzled, men who subvert whole houses, teaching things that they ought not, for sake of ugly profit.
Lazima kubhabesya bhanu kama abhu. Bhimanyisya ghala ghabhilondekalepi kumanyisya kwa faida sya soni ni kuharibu familia syoha,
12 A certain man of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy bellies.
Mmonga bhabhi, munu jhaajhe ni busara, ajobhili, “Bhakrete bhajhe ni udesi bhwabhubelikujha ni mwishu, bhabhibhi ni bhanyama bha hatari, bhafifu ni bhalafi.”
13 This testimony is true, because of which reason, reprove them harshly, so that they may be sound in the faith,
Majhelesu agha gha bhukweli, henu abhabesiajhi kwa nghofu ili kwamba bhabhwesiajhi kujbha bhukweli mu imani.
14 not giving heed to Jewish myths, and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
Bhebhe usikihusishi ni fijegu fyafibelikujha fya bhukweli sya Kiyahudi au amri sya bhanu, ambabho bhikerebhusya kunyuma bhukweli.
15 Truly to the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Kwa bhoha bhabhajhele kinofu, fenu fyoha finofu. Lakini kwa bhoha bhabhajhele bhachafu na bhabhabelili kukiera, kijhelepi kyajhele kinofu. Kwa kujha mabhuasu gha bhene ni dhamira sya bhene sichafulibhu.
16 They profess to know God, but in their works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and worthless for every good work.
Bhikiri kummanya K'yara, lakini kwa matendu gha bhene bhikambela. Bhene ndo bhaovu na bhitii lepi. Bhasibilishibhulepi kwa kitendo lyolyoha linofu.
