Titus 1

1 Paul a seruaunt of God, and an Apostle of Iesus Christ, according to the faith of Gods elect, and the acknowledging of the trueth, which is according vnto godlines,

An Paulo, ma jatich Nyasaye kendo ma jaote Yesu Kristo ema andikonu baruwani. Nyasaye ne oora mondo ajiw yie mar joma Nyasaye oyiero obed motegno, kendo mondo apuonjgi adiera mamiyo giluoro Nyasaye,

2 Vnto the hope of eternall life, which God that cannot lie, hath promised before the world began: (aiōnios g166)

kuom geno yudo ngima mochwere, mane Nyasaye, ma ok riambi osesingore chon ni nomiwa. (aiōnios g166)

3 But hath made his worde manifest in due time through the preaching, which is committed vnto me, according to the commandement of God our Sauiour:

Nyasaye ma Jawarwa ema nohulo wachne malongʼo e ndalo mane en owuon oketo, kendo nogolo chik ni an ema onego miya tich mar lando wachneno.

4 To Titus my naturall sonne according to the common faith, Grace, mercie and peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ our Sauiour.

Ne Tito, wuoda mar adier kuom yie moriwowa e achiel: Ngʼwono gi kwe moa kuom Nyasaye Wuoro kod Kristo Yesu ma Jawarwa obed kodi.

5 For this cause left I thee in Creta, that thou shouldest continue to redresse the thinges that remaine, and shouldest ordeine Elders in euery citie, as I appointed thee,

Gima omiyo ne aweyi Krete ne en ni mondo irie gik moko mane odongʼ kapok atieko, kendo mondo iyier jodong kanisa e dala ka dala, kaka ne achiki ni itim.

6 If any be vnreproueable, the husband of one wife, hauing faithfull children, which are not slandered of riot, neither are disobedient.

Jaduongʼ kanisa nyaka bed ngʼat ma wach moro amora marach onge kuome, kendo ngʼatno man-gi dhako achiel, ngʼat ma nyithinde oyie kendo ma ok nyal kwan kaka nyithindo maricho kendo ma wigi tek.

7 For a Bishop must bee vnreproueable, as Gods steward, not froward, not angrie, not giuen to wine, no striker, not giuen to filthie lucre,

Nikech jatend kanyakla mar jo-Kristo en ngʼat marito tich Nyasaye, omiyo nyaka obed ngʼat ma wach moro amora marach onge kuome. Kik obed ngʼat mamiyo kanyakla mar joma oyie tingʼ mapek. Bende kik obed ngʼat mochayo ji kata ma ja-mirima, kata ngʼat mamer gi kongʼo, kata ngʼat mohero dhawo, kata ngʼat moyudo mwandu e yor mibadhi.

8 But harberous, one that loueth goodnesse, wise, righteous, holy, temperate,

To nyaka obed ngʼat mohero rwako welo, mohero gigo mabeyo, ngʼat ma terore mos, ma ja-ratiro, moluoro Nyasaye; kendo mawinjo puonj.

9 Holding fast that faithfull worde according to doctrine, that he also may bee able to exhort with wholesome doctrine, and conuince them that say against it.

Nyaka omak motegno puonj migeno, mana kaka osepuonje e kinde motelo, mondo eka ojiw joma moko gi puonj madier kendo okwer joma kwedo puonjno.

10 For there are many disobedient and vaine talkers and deceiuers of mindes, chiefly they of the Circumcision,

Nikech nitie ji mangʼeny ma jongʼanyo, ma gin mana jothor wach kendo jowuond ji, to moloyo jogo moter nyangu ma gin jo-Yahudi moyie.

11 Whose mouthes must bee stopped, which subuert whole houses, teaching things, which they ought not, for filthie lucres sake.

Jogi nyaka kwer mondo olingʼ, nikech giketho mier mangʼeny ka gipuonjo gik ma ok owinjore gipuonji; kendo gitimo kamano mana mondo giyudie ohala ma ok nikare.

12 One of themselues, euen one of their owne prophets said, The Cretians are alwaies liars, euill beastes, slowe bellies.

Kata mana janabi moro ma margi owuon osewacho niya, “Jo-Krete riambo kinde duto, gin ondiegi malich ma timbegi richo kendo gin jowuoro ma budho abudha.”

13 This witnesse is true: wherefore conuince them sharply, that they may be sound in ye faith,

Wach janabigino en adier. Omiyo kwergi matek mondo eka gibed gi yie mar adier,

14 And not taking heede to Iewish fables and commandements of men, that turne away from the trueth.

kendo mondo kik gichik itgi ni sigendini mag jo-Yahudi kata ni chike mag joma odagi adiera.

15 Vnto the pure are all things pure, but vnto them that are defiled, and vnbeleeuing, is nothing pure, but euen their mindes and consciences are defiled.

Gik moko duto ler mana ni jomaler, to kuom joma okethore ma ok oyie to onge gima ler. Chutho, pachgi kaachiel gi chunygi monego onyisgi kethogi osetho.

16 They professe that they know God, but by works they deny him, and are abominable and disobedient, and vnto euery good worke reprobate.

Giwacho ni gingʼeyo Nyasaye to gikwedo Nyasaye nogo gi timbegi manono. Gin acheje ma wigi tek kendo ok ginyal timo gimoro amora maber.
