የጳውሎስ መልእክት ለቲቶ

Titus 1

1:1	ጳውሎስ, a servant of God and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, in accord with the faith of God’s elect and in acknowledgment of the truth which is accompanied by piety,
1:2	in the hope of the eternal life that God, who does not lie, promised before the ages of time,
1:3	የትኛው, በትክክለኛው ጊዜ, he has manifested by his Word, in the preaching that has been entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior;
1:4	to Titus, beloved son according to the common faith. Grace and peace, from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Savior.
1:5	ለዚህ ምክንያት, I left you behind in Crete: so that those things which are lacking, you would correct, and so that you would ordain, throughout the communities, ካህናት, (just as I also ordained you)
1:6	if such a man is without offense, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not accused of self-indulgence, nor of insubordination.
1:7	And a bishop, as a steward of God, must be without offense: not arrogant, not short-tempered, not a drunkard, not violent, not desiring tainted profit,
1:8	ይልቁንም: hospitable, ዓይነት, sober, just, ቅዱስ, ንፁህ,
1:9	embracing faithful speech which is in agreement with doctrine, so that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine and to argue against those who contradict.
1:10	For there are, በእርግጥም, many who are disobedient, who speak empty words, and who deceive, especially those who are of the circumcision.
1:11	These must be reproved, for they subvert entire houses, teaching things which should not be taught, for the favor of shameful gain.
1:12	A certain one of these, a prophet of their own kind, በማለት ተናግሯል።: “The Cretans are ever liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.”
1:13	This testimony is true. በዚህ ምክንያት, rebuke them sharply, so that they may be sound in the faith,
1:14	not paying attention to Jewish fables, nor to the rules of men who have turned themselves away from the truth.
1:15	All things are clean to those who are clean. But to those who are defiled, and to unbelievers, nothing is clean; for both their mind and their conscience have been polluted.
1:16	They claim that they know God. ግን, by their own works, they deny him, since they are abominable, and unbelieving, and reprobate, toward every good work.

Titus 2

2:1	But you are to speak the things that befit sound doctrine.
2:2	Old men should be sober, ንፁህ, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.
2:3	Old women, በተመሳሳይ, should be in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well,
2:4	so that they may teach prudence to the young women, so that they may love their husbands, love their children,
2:5	be sensible, ንፁህ, restrained, have concern for the household, be kind, be subordinate to their husbands: so that the Word of God may be not blasphemed.
2:6	Exhort young men similarly, so that they may show self-restraint.
2:7	በሁሉም ነገር, present yourself as an example of good works: በዶክትሪን ውስጥ, with integrity, with seriousness,
2:8	with sound words, irreproachably, so that he who is an opponent may dread that he has nothing evil to say about us.
2:9	Exhort servants to be submissive to their masters, in all things pleasing, not contradicting,
2:10	not cheating, but in all things showing good fidelity, so that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.
2:11	For the grace of God our Savior has appeared to all men,
2:12	instructing us to reject impiety and worldly desires, so that we may live soberly and justly and piously in this age,
2:13	looking forward to the blessed hope and the advent of the glory of the great God and of our Savior Jesus Christ.
2:14	He gave himself for our sake, so that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and might cleanse for himself an acceptable people, pursuers of good works.
2:15	Speak and exhort and argue these things with all authority. Let no one despise you.

Titus 3

3:1	ለገዥዎችና ለባለሥልጣናት ተገዢ እንዲሆኑ ምከራቸው, ትእዛዛቸውን ለመታዘዝ, ለእያንዳንዱ መልካም ሥራ ለመዘጋጀት,
3:2	በማንም ላይ ክፉ ላለመናገር, ሙግት ላለመሆን, ነገር ግን እንዲጠበቅ, ለሰው ሁሉ የዋህነትን አሳይ.
3:3	ለ, ባለፉት ጊዜያት, እኛ ራሳችን ጥበብ የጎደላቸው ነበርን።, አለማመን, መሳሳት, የተለያዩ ፍላጎቶች እና ተድላዎች አገልጋዮች, በክፋት እና በምቀኝነት መስራት, እርስ በርሳችን መጠላላትና መጠላላት.
3:4	ነገር ግን በዚያን ጊዜ የአምላካችን የመድኃኒታችን ቸርነትና ሰውነት ተገለጠ.
3:5	እኛንም አዳነን።, በሠራነው የፍትህ ሥራ አይደለም።, ግን, እንደ ምሕረቱ, ዳግም ልደትን በማጠብ እና በመንፈስ ቅዱስ መታደስ,
3:6	አብዝቶ ያፈሰሰልን, በመድኃኒታችን በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ በኩል,
3:7	ስለዚህ, በጸጋው ጸድቋልና።, በዘላለም ሕይወት ተስፋ ወራሾች ልንሆን እንችላለን.
3:8	This is a faithful saying. And I want you to confirm these things, so that those who believe in God may take care to excel in good works. These things are good and useful to men.
3:9	But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, as well as arguments against the law. For these are useless and empty.
3:10	Avoid a man who is a heretic, after the first and second correction,
3:11	knowing that one who is like this has been subverted, and that he offends; for he has been condemned by his own judgment.
3:12	When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, hurry to return to me at Nicopolis. For I have decided to winter there.
3:13	Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollo ahead with care, and let nothing be lacking to them.
3:14	But let our men also learn to excel in good works pertaining to the necessities of life, so that they may not be unfruitful.
3:15	All those who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in the faith. May the grace of God be with you all. ኣሜን.
