Tito 3
1 Ubhejukishe okwikeya ku bhatangasha na bhutungi, okubhongwa no kumalila okukora bhuli mulimu gwe kisi.
Put them in mind to submit themselves to governments, to authorities, to obey magistrates, to be ready for every good work,
2 Bhejukishe bhasigega kumukolela munu wone wone bhubhibhi, bhekenge okuyomba, bhabhayane omwanya abhandi okukora obhuramusi no kweresha obhwororo ku bhanu bhone.
to speak evil of no one, to be averse to strife, forbearing, showing all meekness to all men.
3 Okubha eswona kara chaliga chili na meganilisho mabhibhi na bhanyantongwa. Chaliga chili mu kubhula chikolelwe bhagaya mu bhuligile bhwanfu no rumula. Charamile murwiso na mubhujabhi. Chasokene no kutamanganwa.
For we ourselves also were once foolish, disobedient, going astray, slaves to divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.
4 Nawe obhufura bhwa Nyamuanga omwikisha weswe no kwenda kwaye ku bhanu bhejile bhwabhonekana,
But when the kindness and love for men of God our Saviour appeared,
5 bhwaliga bhutali mu bhikorwa bhyeswe bhyo bhulengelesi bhinu chakolele, tari achikisishe ku lwe chigongo chaye. Achikisishe kwo kuchosha kwo kwibhurwa kabhili no kukorwa bhayaya no mwoyo mweru.
not by works of righteousness which we did, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the bath of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 Nyamuanga etiye mwoyo mweru mwanfu kweswe mu Yesu Kristo mwerusi weswe.
which he poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Saviour,
7 Akolele kutyo koleleki chibhalilwe obhulengelesi kwe chigongo chaye, chibhe bhari bho mwandu mu kwiikanya kwo bhuanga bhwa kajanende. (aiōnios g166)
that having been accepted as righteous by his grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
8 Gunu ni musango mwiikanyibhwa. Enenda emwe mukomeshe kata ebhigambo bhinu ati, koleleki bhanu abhekirisha Nyamuanga bhabhe na meganilisho go kulola ebhikolwa bhye kisi bhinu bhyateywe imbele yebbhwe. Emisango jinu ni ja kisi ka bhilengele abhanu bhone.
True is the saying; and these things I desire that thou affirm earnestly, that they who have believed in God may be careful to practise good works. These things are good and profitable to men;
9 Nawe wikengega jimamba jo bhutamu tamu, ne ja jinganda, inyombo, no kubhambashanya ebhye bhiragiro. Amagambo ago gatana mulimu gwona gwona gwo kusakila.
but avoid foolish questionings, and genealogies, and strifes, and contentions about the Law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10 Omunu unu kaleta obhwaukani kwimwe ukamara okumubhwira orwo kwamba no rwa kabhili mumuleme.
A man that stirs up divisions, after a first and second admonition, avoid;
11 Umenye ati omunu wejabho oyo asigile akalibhatie ke kisi kakora ebhibhibhi no kwilamula omwene.
knowing that he that is such is utterly perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned.
12 Aribha natuma Artemi amwi Tikiko, wanguwe bhwangu okwija kwanye enu Nikapoli okubha namaramula okubhenu mu nsiku ja imbeyo.
When I shall have sent Artemas to thee, or Tychicus, use diligence to come to me to Nicopolis; for there I have determined to pass the winter.
13 Numutume Zena nyabhiragiro, na Apolo, bhwangu ubhasakire bhatabhulwa chinu.
Zenas the lawyer and Apollos forward on their journey diligently, that nothing may be wanting to them.
14 Abhanu bheswe jiire bheigire okukora ebhikorwa bhyo bhwana koleleki bhibhasakile mu bhukene bhasige kubhurwa amatwasho.
And let those also who belong to us learn to practise good works for the necessary wants that arise, that they may not be unfruitful.
15 Bhone bhanu bhaliamwi nanye abhakukesha. Bhakeshe bhanu abhachenda mu likirisha. Echigongo chibhe nemwe bhone.
All that are with me salute thee. Salute those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
