Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus (the) Messiah, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
Phaawulos isa amantii filatamtoota Waaqaatii fi dhugaa beekuu gara Waaqaaf buluutti nama geessuuf garbicha Waaqaatii fi ergamaa Yesuus Kiristoos taʼe irraa;
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began; (aiōnios g166)
kunis abdii jireenya bara baraa isa Waaqni hin sobne sun jalqaba addunyaatiin dura waadaa gale irratti kan hundeeffamee dha; (aiōnios g166)

innis yommuu yeroon murteeffame sun gaʼetti karaa lallaba isa ajaja Fayyisaa keenya Waaqaatiin imaanaa natti kennameetiin dubbii isaa ifatti baaseera,
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Messiah Jesus our Savior.

6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
Jaarsi tokko kan mudaa hin qabne, dhirsa niitii tokkittii, kan ijoolleen isaa amananii jireenya gad dhiisiitii fi ajajamuu diduun maqaan isaanii hin badin taʼuu qaba.
7 For the overseer must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
Phaaphaasiin tokko sababii hojiin Waaqaa imaanaa isatti kennameef inni nama mudaa hin qabne taʼuu qaba malee kan of tuulu, kan dafee aaru, kan machaaʼu, kan lola jaallatuu fi kan karaa hin malleen buʼaa argachuuf tattaaffatu taʼuu hin qabu.
8 but given to hospitality, as a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined;
Qooda kanaa inni nama keessumaa simatu, nama waan gaarii jaallatu, kan of qabu, qajeelaa, qulqulluu fi nama naamusa qabu taʼuu qaba.
9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
Inni akka barsiisa dhugaatiin warra kaan gorsuu, warra barsiisa sanaan morman immoo akka dogoggora isaanii itti himee amansiisuu dandaʼuuf akkuma barsiifametti dubbii amanamaa sana jabeessee qabachuu qaba.
10 For there are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
Finciltoonni baayʼeen, warri dubbii faayidaa hin qabne dubbatanii fi gowwoomsitoonni keessumattuu miseensonni garee warra dhagna qabatanii hedduutu jiraatii.
11 whose mouths must be silenced; who are upsetting whole families, teaching things which they should not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
Isaan buʼaa hin malle argachuuf jedhanii waan barsiisuun isaan irra hin jirre barsiisuudhaan waan maatii guutuu diiganiif afaan qabachiifamuu qabu.
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons."

Akka isaan mammaaksa Yihuudootaa kan hundee hin qabne yookaan ajaja warra dhugaadhaan mormanii duukaa hin buuneefis jabeessii isaan ifadhu.
15 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.
Warra qulqullaaʼoof wanni hundinuu qulqulluu dha; warra xuraaʼoo fi warra hin amanneef garuu wanni tokko iyyuu qulqulluu miti. Dhugumaanuu yaadni isaaniitii fi qalbiin isaanii xuraaʼeera.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
Isaan nu Waaqa beekna jedhu; hojii isaaniitiin garuu isa ganu. Isaan jibbamoo dha; warra hin ajajamnee fi warra waan gaarii tokko iyyuu hojjechuuf gaʼumsa hin qabnee dha.
