1A faithful saying: if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
1Kas pwaye se pa inge: sie mwet fin kena tuh elan sie mwet sropo lun church, el sulela sie orekma arulana wo.
2It behoveth therefore a bishop to be blameless, the husband of one wife, sober, prudent, of good behaviour, chaste, given to hospitality, a teacher,
2Sie mwet sropo lun church enenu in sie mwet wangin mwatal, su mukul tumun mutan sefanna; el sifacna etal, sifacna leum facl, wo elahl, engan in eis mwet sac nu in lohm sel, ac etu in luti.
3Not given to wine, no striker, but modest, not quarrelsome, not covetous, but
3Elan tia sie mwet sruhi, ku sie mwet anwuk, a elan kulang ac tia lungse akukuin; oayapa elan tia sie mwet nunkun mani.
4One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all chastity.
4Elan liyaung tuh ma nukewa in lohm sel in fahsr wo, ac oru tuh tulik natul in akosten ac etu sunak.
5But if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?
5Tuh sie mwet fin tia ku in liyaung mwet in lohm sel sifacna, ac fuka tuh elan ku in liyaung church lun God?
6Not a neophyte: lest being puffed up with pride, he fall into the judgment of the devil.
6Tia enenu elan tufahna forla nu ke moul in Christian, tuh el fah tia filangak insial ac lisyukla oana Devil.
7Moreover he must have a good testimony of them who are without: lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
7Ac el fah sie su akfulatyeyuk sin mwet sayen mwet in church, ouinge el fah tia akmwekinyeyuk ac putatyang nu in mwe kwasrip lun Devil.
8Deacons in like manner chaste, not double tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre:
8Oayapa deacon ke church enenu in mwet ohi, ac mwet kaskas suwohs. Elos in tia mwet mwel wain ac tia rapkui mani.
9Holding the mystery of faith in a pure conscience.
9Elos enenu in sruokya ku ma pwaye su akkalemyeyuk ke lulalfongi, ke inse okak.
10And let these also first be proved: and so let them minister, having no crime.
10Elos enenu in srikeyuk meet, na fin wangin mwatalos, elos fah ku in oru orekma lun deacon.
11The women in like manner chaste, not slanderers, but sober, faithful in all things.
11Mutan uh enenu pac in mwet ohi, tia lesrik, sifacna etalos, ac oaru in ma nukewa.
12Let deacons be the husbands of one wife: who rule well their children, and their own houses.
12Lela sie deacon elan mukul tumun mutan sefanna, ac liyaung wo tulik natul ac mwet nukewa in sou lal.
13For they that have ministered well, shall purchase to themselves a good degree, and much confidence in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
13Tuh deacon nukewa su kulansap wo in ma kunalos ac fah ohi yurin mwet uh, na elos ac pulaik in fahkak lulalfongi lalos in Christ Jesus.
14These things I write to thee, hoping that I shall come to thee shortly.
14Ke nga simis leta se inge nu sum, nga finsrak tuh nga in sa tuku nu yurum.
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.
15Tusruktu, nga fin pahtlac, leta se inge ac fah akkalemye ouiya ma fal nu sin mwet in sou lun God, aok church lun God moul, elos su sru ac pwelung lun ma pwaye.
16And evidently great is the mystery of godliness, which was manifested in the flesh, was justified in the spirit, appeared unto angels, hath been preached unto the Gentiles, is believed in the world, is taken up in glory.
16Wangin mwet ku in lafwekin yokiyen mwe luti pwaye lun God ma akkalemyeyuk nu sesr: El sikyak in luman mwet, Ac Ngun el akkalemye pwaye ac suwohs lal, El oayapa liyeyuk sin lipufan. Fwackyak el inmasrlon mutanfahl uh, Ac lulalfongiyuk el fin faclu nufon, Na utukyak el nu inkusrao.
