¹問安　神的僕人、耶穌基督的使徒保羅（這是為著　神選民的信心，和那合乎敬虔真理的知識；

¹Sura toi ngkai aku' Paulus, batua Alata'ala pai' suro Yesus Kristus. Na'ongko' -a jadi' suro-na, pai' nahubui-a mporohoi pepangala' tauna to napelihi-ramo Alata'ala. Nahubui wo'o-a mpotudui' -ra tudui' to makono. Ane tatuku' tudui' to makono toe, mengkoru-ta hi Alata'ala,

²這都是根據永生的盼望，這永生就是沒有謊言的　神在萬世以前所應許的。

²duu' -na mporata-tamo katuwua' to lompe' duu' kahae-hae-na, hewa to najanci-taka. Apa' kako'ia-na napajadi' dunia', mojanci-i kanawai' -ta katuwua' to lompe'-- pai' Alata'ala uma-i-hana moboa'.

³到了適當的時候，　神就藉著福音的宣講，把他的道顯明出來。照著　神我們救主的命令，這宣講的使命交託了我），

³Jadi', hi tempo to napakatantu, napopo'incai mpu'u-tamo ohea mporata katuwua' to lompe', apa' nahubui-ramo suro-na mpopalele Lolita-na. Pai' aku' toi-mi hadua to mpopalele Lolita-na toe, ntuku' hawa' Alata'ala, Magau' Tompohore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta.

⁴寫信給提多，就是那在共同的信仰上作我真兒子的。願恩惠平安從父　神和我們的救主基督耶穌臨到你。

⁴Sura toi kupakatu hi iko Titus, to kuponcawa ana' inote-ku moto-moko apa' hampepangalaa' -tamo. Wori' tabe: mekakae-a hi Alata'ala to Tuama pai' hi Kristus Yesus Magau' Tompohore-ta ngkai huku' jeko' -ta, kuperapi' bona nagane' -ko ngkai kabula rala-na pai' nawai' -ko kalompea' tuwu'.

⁵提多在克里特的工作我從前留你在克里特島，是要你辦好沒有辦完的事，並且照我所吩咐的，在各城設立長老。

⁵Patuju-ku mpohubui-ko tida hi Kreta, bona iko-damo mpo'atoro' pobago-ta to ko'ia oti. Jadi', hewa to oti-mi kuhawai' -koko, mpo'ongko' -ra pangkeni-pangkeni agama hi butu-butu ngata hi retu.

⁶如果有人無可指摘，只作一個妻子的丈夫，兒女都信主，也沒有人控告他們放蕩或不受約束，才可以作長老。

⁶Ane tauna to jadi' pangkeni agama, kana tauna to uma kasalaia' gau' -ra, to motobinei hadua-wadi, ana' -ra kana mepangala' wo'o hi Kristus, pai' bela-ra ana' to rakahangai' to sapa pai' to mekahia'.

⁷因為監督是　神的管家，所以必須無可指摘、不任性、不隨便動怒、不好酒、不打人、不貪不義之財；

⁷Apa' tauna to jadi' pangkeni hi rala agama-ta, pahawaa' to mpo'urusi pobago Alata'ala. Toe pai' kana to uma ria kasalaia' -ra: uma ma'ala to molangko nono ba to jolia moroe, uma ma'ala topalangu-langu ba to ntora motuda' pai' to doko' doi-wadi.

⁸卻要接待客旅、喜愛良善、自律、公正、聖潔、自制，

⁸Tauna to nu'ongko' jadi' pangkeni agama, kana tauna to jole' metorata, tida mpobabehi to lompe', monoto pai' monoa' nono-ra, moroli' po'ingku-ra pai' to mpokule' mpengkatarii kahinaa nono-ra to dada'a.

⁹堅守那合乎教義、可靠的真道，好使他能夠用純正的道理勸勉人，並且能夠折服反對的人。

⁹Kana moroho pongkakamu-ra tudui' to tapangala', hewa to oti-mi ratudui' -taka, bona ra'inca mpotudui' tauna tudui' to makono pai' mpo'apui nono-ra, pai' ra'inca wo'o mpokamaro-ra to mposapuaka tudui' -ta.

¹⁰因為有許多不受約束、好講空話和欺騙人的，尤其是那些守割禮的人，

¹⁰Patuju-ku mpo'uli' -koko toe-e, apa' wori' -ramo tauna to mpo'ewa tudui' -ta, peliu-liu-nami hira' to mpotuku' ada petini' Atura Musa. Mekahia' -ra, pai' mpobagiu doo-ra hante tudui' -ra to uma ria kalaua-na toe.

¹¹他們為了可恥的利益，教訓一些不應該教導的事，敗壞人的全家，你務要堵住他們的嘴。

¹¹Tauna to hewa toera kana ratagi, neo' nupiliu-ra metudui'! Apa' wori' ntomi tauna to jadi' ingu' mpo'epe tudui' -ra to uma tumotoa. Pai' patuju-ra metudui', bona mporata gaji' -ra-wadi. Uma-hawo lompe' kehi to hewa toe.

¹²有一個克里特本地的先知說過：“克里特人是常常說謊的，是惡獸，好吃懶作。”

¹²Ria-hana hadua nabi to Kreta owi to mpo'uli' hewa toi: "To Kreta-le, paka' to moboa', dike' to mau, jampa pai' lose."

¹³這見證是真的。為了這緣故，你要嚴厲地責備他們，好使他們在信仰上健全，

¹³Wae mpu'u-di! Toe pai' kana nuparesai' mpu'u-ra to Kreta tetura ria, bona tida-ra mepangala' hi tudui' to makono.

¹⁴不再理會猶太人的無稽之談和偏離正道的人的規條。

¹⁴Paresai' -ra bona neo' -pi rapangala' jarita to Yahudi to ratamangko-wadi pai' parenta-parenta to ngkai manusia' to mposapuaka tudui' to makono.

¹⁵在清潔的人，一切都是清潔的；但在污穢和不信的人，沒有一樣是清潔的，連他們的意念和良心都污穢了。

¹⁵Hi tauna to moroli' nono-ra, uma ria napa-napa to rapalii'. Aga tauna to dada'a nono-ra pai' to uma mepangala', uma ria to moroli', apa' bengku' ami' -mi pekiri-ra, pai' rapo'ihi moto-mi gau' -ra to dada'a, duu' -na uma-pi rarasai kamasala' -ra.

¹⁶他們聲稱認識　神，卻在行為上否認他。他們是可憎的、悖逆的，在各樣的善事上，是毫無用處的。

¹⁶Ra'uli' -rana, ra'inca moto-i Alata'ala, ntaa' monoto-midi kaboa' -rae, apa' po'ingku-ra uma mpotuku' konoa-na. Babo' lia kehi-ra hi poncilo-na. Uma-ra dota rahawai', pai' uma rakulei' mpobabehi kehi napa-napa to lompe'.
