Titus 3
1 Admonish them to be subject to princes and powers, to obey at a word, to be ready to every good work.
te yathA dezAdhipAnAM zAsakAnAJca nighnA AjJAgrAhiNzca sarvvasmai satkarmmaNe susajjAzca bhaveyuH
2 To speak evil of no man, not to be litigious, but gentle: shewing all mildness towards all men.
kamapi na nindeyu rnivvirodhinaH kSAntAzca bhaveyuH sarvvAn prati ca pUrNaM mRdutvaM prakAzayeyuzceti tAn Adiza|
3 For we ourselves also were some time unwise, incredulous, erring, slaves to divers desires and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
yataH pUrvvaM vayamapi nirbbodhA anAjJAgrAhiNo bhrAntA nAnAbhilASANAM sukhAnAJca dAseyA duSTatverSyAcAriNo ghRNitAH parasparaM dveSiNazcAbhavAmaH|
4 But when the goodness and kindness of God our Saviour appeared:
kintvasmAkaM trAturIzvarasya yA dayA marttyAnAM prati ca yA prItistasyAH prAdurbhAve jAte
5 Not by the works of justice, which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us, by the laver of regeneration, and renovation of the Holy Ghost;
vayam AtmakRtebhyo dharmmakarmmabhyastannahi kintu tasya kRpAtaH punarjanmarUpeNa prakSAlanena pravitrasyAtmano nUtanIkaraNena ca tasmAt paritrANAM prAptAH
6 Whom he hath poured forth upon us abundantly, through Jesus Christ our Saviour:
sa cAsmAkaM trAtrA yIzukhrISTenAsmadupari tam AtmAnaM pracuratvena vRSTavAn|
7 That, being justified by his grace, we may be heirs, according to hope of life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
itthaM vayaM tasyAnugraheNa sapuNyIbhUya pratyAzayAnantajIvanasyAdhikAriNo jAtAH| (aiōnios g166)
8 It is a faithful saying: and these things I will have thee affirm constantly: that they, who believe in God, may be careful to excel in good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
vAkyametad vizvasanIyam ato hetorIzvare ye vizvasitavantaste yathA satkarmmANyanutiSTheyustathA tAn dRDham AjJApayeti mamAbhimataM|tAnyevottamAni mAnavebhyaH phaladAni ca bhavanti|
9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law. For they are unprofitable and vain.
mUDhebhyaH praznavaMzAvalivivAdebhyo vyavasthAyA vitaNDAbhyazca nivarttasva yatastA niSphalA anarthakAzca bhavanti|
10 A man that is a heretic, after the first and second admonition, avoid:
yo jano bibhitsustam ekavAraM dvirvvA prabodhya dUrIkuru,
11 Knowing that he, that is such an one, is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned by his own judgment.
yatastAdRzo jano vipathagAmI pApiSTha AtmadoSakazca bhavatIti tvayA jJAyatAM|
12 When I shall send to thee Artemas or Tychicus, make haste to come unto me to Nicopolis. For there I have determined to winter.
yadAham ArttimAM tukhikaM vA tava samIpaM preSayiSyAmi tadA tvaM nIkapalau mama samIpam AgantuM yatasva yatastatraivAhaM zItakAlaM yApayituM matim akArSaM|
13 Send forward Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollo, with care, that nothing be wanting to them.
vyavasthApakaH sInA ApalluzcaitayoH kasyApyabhAvo yanna bhavet tadarthaM tau yatnena tvayA visRjyetAM|
14 And let our men also learn to excel in good works for necessary uses: that they be not unfruitful.
aparam asmadIyalokA yanniSphalA na bhaveyustadarthaM prayojanIyopakArAyA satkarmmANyanuSThAtuM zikSantAM|
15 All that are with me salute thee: salute them that love us in the faith. The grace of God be with you all. Amen.
