Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
World English Bible
1Pauluna, Godaia mili ja Jesuni Christuni Apostel, Godaia kalkalkani morlalu ngundranandru, ja morlaluja ngujamanandru, nulia talkulaia wapalkai,
1Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s chosen ones and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
2Tepi nguralia kalkanandru, ninaia jedini pani Godali talpadakana wonti miljaru nguralindru.
2in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began;
3Nulia miljaru talkuni jaura nunkani tinkari ngankana wonti kaukaubanali, ninaia Nulia ngakangu jinkina wonti Godaia Kulpanipirnaia ngaiananaia jirijiribanandru,
3but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,
4Titungu, kupa talkuni ngakanani jela morlalu ngundranandru: Manjula, ja kalumiltjamiltjarina, ja murla Goda Ngaperandru, ja Kapara Jesus Christus ngaianani Kulkanipirnandru.
4to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
5Jendrania ngato jidna Kretangu worarana kurana wonti, ngangau jundru pratjana talku ngankingananto, ja ngura pilki ja pilkini ngamalkijiribanietja kurananto, worderu ngato jinkangu jirijiribana wonti.
5I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you—
6Kulno madlentji pani ngananani, widla kulnuja noa, kupa morlalu ngundrani ngamalkanani, tanangundru kanali wata warawarabai mirantjati ja wata pankini kara.
6if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
7Ngangau jaura jinkinietja madlentji pani nganananto Godaia punga ngamalkijiribanietja jeribaka, wata pirna ngundraterini, wata nurujeli tiri, wata tapanietja, wata nandranietja, wata kalikalipaterinietja,
7For 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;
8A‐ai, tidnapalara patanietja, ngumuja kamaneli, pirna ngundrani, talku, kulikiri, ninta pirna.
8but given to hospitality, a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled,
9Nulu ngujangujara parparali patananto worderu jaura morlaluni parai, nau ngurunguru nganananto jaura tepieli kurukurubala ja tatanietja karkarkala.
9holding 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.
10Ngangau delkina jatajatanietja ja jedibanietja marapu nganai, morla pirna tana karuwalilandru,
10For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
11Tanangu ngaiana mana ngandrawalkananto; ngangau jenipara kanali punga warupoto karitjimalkai, ja ngujangujara jinkiai, mina wata ngumu, kalikalipaterinandru.
11whose mouths must be stopped: men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain’s sake.
12Kulno tanangundru, tanani Propheta munta, jatana wonti: „Kretala milingeru jedikantji, nganti tiri, ja mandra nguja nganai.“
12One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons.”
13Naupini tinkari ngankani morlalu nganai; Jendrangundruja tanana parparali kurukurubamai, tana tepi nganananto morlalu ngundranani,
13This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
14Tanali Juda kanaia jaura baku ja kanaia jirijiribani jaura wata ngundrananto, ngangau tana morlalulandru karitjimalkai.
14not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
15Warupoto kulikiri nganai kana kulikirini; kana tidatidani ja morlalu ngundrani panini panila kulikiri nganai, a‐ai, tjuru ja ngara ngaiala tanani tidatida nganai;
15To 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.
16Tana dikai, ngaiani Goda ngujamai, windri ngankanali tanali nina kutikutibai, ngangau tana dalkumaranietja ja delkinietja, ja waltowalto ngankana ngumu pratjanani.
16They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
