¹Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,

¹ M'i fongandi mo i ma ngey boŋ ye ganda koyey kulu nda hinkoyey kulu se. I m'i sanney gana, i ma goro soolante goy hanno kulu teeyaŋ se.

²To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.

² I ma si boro kulu ciinay da laala, i ma si ciya kusuumanteyaŋ, amma i ma ciya bine baanikoyyaŋ, ka ngey boŋ cabe lalabukoyaŋ boro kulu se.

³For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

³ Zama iri mo, waato iri jaŋ laakal, iri goro murtanteyaŋ, i n'iri halli mo. Iri goro ka bannyataray te bine ibaay laaley da watay kulu dumi se. Iri goro k'iri baafuna te zamba nda canse ra. Iri goro konnaari hari, iri konna care mo.

⁴But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

⁴ Amma waato kaŋ Irikoy, iri Faabakwa booro d'a borey se baakasina bangay,

⁵Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

⁵ a n'iri faaba. Manti goy hanney do kaŋ iri bumbey te bo, amma a suujo do no _a n'iri faaba|_, hayyaŋ taji nyumayyaŋo do da Biya* Hanno tajandiyaŋo do.

⁶Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

⁶ Irikoy na Biya Hanno zumandi iri boŋ da yulwa iri Faabakwa Yesu Almasihu do.

⁷That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

⁷ Irikoy na woodin te zama iri ma ciya tubukoyaŋ fundi hal abada beeja ra, za kaŋ a n'iri adilandi* _nga jine|_ nga gomno do.

⁸This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.

⁸ Sanni woodin ya naanaykoy no. Ay ga ba mo ni ma woodin yaŋ seeda nda gaabi hala borey kaŋ yaŋ na Irikoy cimandi ma laakal ye goy hanno teeyaŋ gaa. Woodin yaŋ ga boori. I gonda nafa mo borey se.

⁹But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.

⁹ Amma ma fay da kakaw yaamey da asuli* lasaabuyaŋ da kusuuma, da asariya boŋ canda-canda, zama ngey wo sinda nafa kulu, yaamo mo no.

¹⁰A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;

¹⁰ Da ni na boro kaŋ ga fay-fayyaŋ daŋ borey game ra kaseeti sorro fo hal ihinka, _d'a wangu|_ ni ma moor'a.

¹¹Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

¹¹ Zama ni ga bay kaŋ bora din dumi ya siirante no, a goono ga zunubi te mo, ka nga boŋ ciiti ka zeeri.

¹²When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter.

¹² Waati kaŋ ay ga Artemas wala Ticikos donton ni do, kala ni ma ni hina kulu te ka kaa ay do Nikobolis kwaara, zama ay sijiri ka jawo te noodin no.

¹³Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.

¹³ Ma ni hina kulu te ka Zenas kaŋ ga ti ciitikwa, da Abolos gaakasinay da hindoonay hal i ma si jaŋ hay kulu.

¹⁴And let our's also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.

¹⁴ Ma naŋ iri borey ma goy hanno teeyaŋ dondon. Gaa no i ga laamey kaŋ ga tilas kaa hal i gora ma si ciya yaamo.

¹⁵All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.

¹⁵ Borey kulu kaŋ go ay banda go ga ni fo. Ma borey kaŋ ga ba iri cimbeeri ra fo. Gomni ma bara araŋ kulu banda.
