1¶ Na Paora, he pononga na te Atua, he apotoro na Ihu Karaiti, i runga i te whakapono o te hunga whiriwhiri a te Atua, i te matauranga hoki ki ta te pono e rite ai te karakia;
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,
2I runga ano i te tumanako atu ki te ora tonu, i whakaaria mai nei i mua atu o te ao e te Atua e kore nei e teka;
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'.
3Nana nei i whakakite mai tana kupu i ona wa, ra te kupu i tukua mai ki ahau, he mea whakarite mai na te Atua, na to tatou Kaiwhakaora;
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.
4Ki a Taituha, ki taku tamaiti pono i runga i to tatou whakapono tahi: Kia tau te aroha noa me te rangimarie, he mea na te Atua Matua, na Karaiti Ihu, na to tatou kaiwhakaora.
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¶ Ko te mea tenei i waiho atu ai koe e ahau ki Kariti, kia whakatikaia ai e koe nga mea i mahue, kia whakaritea ai ano hoki he kaumatua ki ia pa, ki ia pa, kia pera ai me taku i whakatakoto atu ai ki a koe:
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¶ Ki te mea he tangata kahore e ekengia e te kupu, he tahu no te wahine kotahi, he tamariki whakapono ana, kahore e korerotia to ratou toreretanga ki te kino, kahore e tutu.
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'.
7Ko te tikanga hoki mo te pihopa, kia kaua e ekengia e te kupu, kia rite ki ta te Atua tuari: ehara i te mea tohe ki tana ake, kahore ona aritarita, kahore ana kakai waina, kahore ana papatu, kahore e whai i te taonga he;
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.
8Engari e atawhai ana i te manuhiri, e aroha ana ki te pai, e whai whakaaro ana, e tika ana, e tapu ana, e pehi ana i ona hiahia;
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.
9E u ana te pupuri i te kupu pono i whakaakona atu na, kia taea ai e ia, i te mea ka tika nei tana whakaako, te whakahauhau, te turaki ano i ta te hunga e totohe mai ana.
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.
10He tokomaha hoki te hunga tutu, korero teka noa, tinihanga; nui atu ia o te hunga o te kotinga,
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.
11Me kuku o ratou waha; riro pu hoki etahi whare te whakaputa ke e ratou, e whakaako ana i nga mea e kore e tika, he whakaaro hoki ki te taonga he.
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.
12I mea tetahi o ratou, he poropiti no ratou ake, He teka tonu ta nga Kariti, he kararehe kino, he pukukai, he mangere.
12Ria-hana hadua nabi to Kreta owi to mpo'uli' hewa toi: "To Kreta-le, paka' to moboa', dike' to mau, jampa pai' lose."
13Ka pono tenei korero. Na reira kia koi tau kupu riri ki a ratou; kia ora ai to ratou whakapono;
13Wae mpu'u-di! Toe pai' kana nuparesai' mpu'u-ra to Kreta tetura ria, bona tida-ra mepangala' hi tudui' to makono.
14Kei tahuri hoki ratou ki nga kupu tito a nga Hurai, ki nga ture a nga tangata e whakaputa ke ana i te pono.
14Paresai' -ra bona neo' -pi rapangala' jarita to Yahudi to ratamangko-wadi pai' parenta-parenta to ngkai manusia' to mposapuaka tudui' to makono.
15He ma nga mea katoa ki te hunga ma: tena ki te hunga poke, kahore nei o ratou whakapono, kahore he mea ma: heoi he mea poke o ratou whakaaro, o ratou hinengaro.
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.
16Ki ta ratou ki kua matau ratou ki te Atua; heoi ko a ratou mahi hei whakakahore ki a ia, he hunga whakarihariha ratou, he hunga tutu, e kore ano e tikangatia mo tetahi mahi pai.
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'.
