Titus 2

1 You however, should speak of such subjects as properly have a place in sound teaching.

Te Titus, ho afiꞌ dadꞌi onaꞌ se, e! Musi huhuar atahori ra fo rasodꞌa tungga Lamatuaꞌ nenori ndoo-tetun.

2 Teach that the older men should be soberly clear minded, dignified and self-controlled – sound in faith, love, and patient endurance.

Mufadꞌe ama-ama lasiꞌ ra, fo rasodꞌa tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ ra, ranea nara malole nara, rasodꞌa no matu-matu. Musi toꞌu rahereꞌ ma raꞌatataaꞌ tungga Lamatualain nenori ndoo-tetun. Ara musi sue atahori feaꞌ ra boe.

3 So, too, that the older women should live reverent lives, not slanderers, not slaves to excessive drinking.

Ina-ina lasiꞌ ra onaꞌ naa boe. Mufadꞌe se fo ranea ralolole tetende-nemberii nara, ma rasodꞌa tunggaꞌ a Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun. Afiꞌ olaꞌ raꞌamuti atahori nara nara. Afiꞌ hengge ao nara neu sopi-ralu. Te musi ranori atahori ra fo rasodꞌa no maloleꞌ.

4 They should teach what is good, so as to train the younger women to love their husbands and children,

No taꞌo naa, ranori ma ratudꞌu dꞌala maloleꞌ fee ina-ina soruꞌ ra, fo ara sue sao-ana nara boe.

5 and to be self-controlled, pure-minded, to be watching over their home, to be kind, respecting the authority of their husbands, so that no one will speak badly of God’s message.

Ara musi ranori se fo rasodꞌa no matu-matu, afiꞌ tao leli, ralalau rahine ume nara no maloleꞌ, fee hadꞌat neu sao nara, ma fee sao nara dadꞌi malangga umeloo nara. Mete ma rasodꞌa onaꞌ naa, na, nda hambu atahori olaꞌ raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌolan sa.

6 In the same way with the younger men – encourage them to be self-controlled.

Onaꞌ naa boe, munori mone-tenaꞌ ra, fo rasodꞌa no matu-matu boe.

7 In all things, set an example of doing good. In your teaching, show integrity and seriousness –

Titus! Musi musodꞌa malolole, fo dadꞌi dꞌala maloleꞌ soaꞌ neu atahori feaꞌ ra boe. Tao saa na, musi tao no ndoo-tetuꞌ, tungga nenorim neu atahori ra. Afiꞌ muꞌumiminaꞌ mo ue-tatao mara.

8 let the instruction that you give be sound and above reproach, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed when they fail to find anything bad to say about us.

Munori atahori, na, musi munori mendiꞌ netehu manggateeꞌ, fo atahori nda hambu dalaꞌ fo olaꞌ raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ nggo sa. No taꞌo naa, atahori mana labꞌan hitaꞌ ra mae ao nara reuꞌ ena, huu nda raꞌena netehuuꞌ fo labꞌan hita sa.

9 Tell slaves to respect their owner’s authority in all circumstances, and to try their best to please them.

Munori ate ra, fo rena neu malangga nara sia sudꞌiꞌ a dalaꞌ bee, ma tao nemehoꞌo malangga ra. Afiꞌ rareresi ro malangga nara boe.

10 Teach them not to contradict or to pilfer, but to show such praiseworthy fidelity in everything, as to recommend the teaching about God our Saviour by all that they do.

Afi ramanaꞌo malangga nara sudꞌi a saa nara. Musi ratudꞌu, fo malangga nara bisa ramahere se no tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ. Sira, musi dadꞌi atahori maloleꞌ ma raꞌatataaꞌ. Mete ma atahori dꞌeaꞌ ra raꞌasasamaꞌ ate ra masodꞌa nara onaꞌ naa ro basa hita tanoriꞌ ra, na, ara duꞌa rae, nenoriꞌ soꞌal Lamatualain, mana fee masodꞌaꞌ neu hita, naa manaseliꞌ.

11 For the loving kindness of God has been revealed, bringing salvation for all,

Lamatualain natudꞌu rala malolen neu basa atahori, ma soi dꞌala masodꞌaꞌ soaꞌ neu atahori sala-kilu nara.

12 leading us to renounce ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives here in this present age, (aiōn g165)

Huu naa de, hita musi nggari hendi masodꞌa nda matetuꞌ sa, ma basa hihii-nanau deꞌulakaꞌ ra. Tasodꞌa sia raefafoꞌ ia, musi taꞌatataaꞌ tala ao tara, tasodꞌa meumareꞌ, ma tungga Lamatualain losa babꞌasan. (aiōn g165)

13 while awaiting our blessed hope – the appearing in glory of our great God and Saviour, Christ Jesus.

Aleꞌ ia tamahena neu Yesus Kristus neneman no mandela-masaan! Naa dadꞌi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu basa nggita. Eni, hita Lamatua manaselin, fo mana fee nggita masodꞌaꞌ.

14 For he gave himself on our behalf, to deliver us from all wickedness, and to purify for himself a people who should be truly his own and eager to do good.

Ana fee Aon dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ fo mboꞌi hendi hita mia basa sala-kilu tara, fo tao nggita dadꞌi atahorin mana nasodꞌa no rala meumareꞌ, ma mana hii taoꞌ a maloleꞌ ra boe.

15 Tell them of all this, and encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone belittle you.

De Titus, munori basa ia ra neu jamaꞌat ra. Huhuar se fo ara tungga basa nenoriꞌ ia ra. Seka tao salaꞌ, na, mutudꞌu dꞌala maloleꞌ neu se. Atahori nda bole raloe-radꞌae nggo, huu muꞌena hak tao basa naa ra.
