Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Morlalu naupini jaura nganai: Kulnujeli ngantjanani jaurajinkinietjaia ngamalkijiribani manila, nulu ngankana ngumu ngantjai.
1This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
2Jaura jinkinietja madlentji pani nganananto, widla kulnuja noa, baka nguru, kalu nguru, maramanju, tidnapalarani manju, ngujangujarani kiri,
2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
3Wata tapanietja, wata tirietja, a‐ai, malti, jatamalini ja ngukingukibaterini pani,
3Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
4Nulu punga nunkani ngumu najinajibai, ja nunkani kupa pankinani ngumu ngamalkai talkula pratjanali.
4One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;
5Kulno wata kiri ngananani nunkani punga ngumu najinajibala, worderu nulu Godaia mili wolara ngamalkijiribananto?
5(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)
6Wata mili marra, nau wombatjaraiati ja ngulkuterkanietjaia kalalani puriati.
6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
7Tanali palarani nunkangundru jurakokani jaura ngumu ngamalkananto, nau wata ngirkibanani ja ngulkuterkanietjaia wirini purinanto.
7Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
8Jeruja bakana mili talku nganananto, wata tali pudla mandru ngamalkananto, wata waina pirna tapananto, wata murumurujeli ngukingukibaterinanto.
8Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
9Tanali morlalu ngundranaia kurukurula ngara kulikirini ngamalkananto.
9Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
10Ja (kaparali) tanana ngopera wontjananto, ngadani tana ngamalkijiribani tanani woninanto, tana madlentji pani ngananani.
10And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.
11Jeruja bakana widla nganananto, talku, wata kuringulkuterkanietja, baka nguru, morlalu warupotuni.
11Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
12Mili widla kulnuja noa nganananto, tanali tanani kupa ja tanani punga ngumu najinajibananto.
12Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
13Tana matja mili ngumu ngamana warai, tana witta ngumu ja manubaku pirna patai morlalu ngundranani Christungu Jesungu.
13For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
14Jenia ngato jinkangu dakai, ja ngundrai, jinkangu wolja wokarala;
14These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:
15Ngani juri ngamanani kara, jundru ngujamananto, worderu Godaia pungani ngamananto, nauja tepia Goda mili wolara nganai; morlalulaia marda pantja, ja marda kapara.
15But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
16Ja talkulaia kurukurula kantji pirna nganai: Godali wondraterina wonti palkuni, talku pantjina wonti Jaolani, angelani wondraterina wonti, kana koni kaukaubana wonti, mitala morlalu ngundrana wonti, pirnalani tarana wonti.
16And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
