1 Atyanu boluganda, tutaka tubamanyikisye ebikwata oku kisa oKibbumba ekyakwatiire ekanisa yʼomwitwale lyʼe Makedooniya.
2 Waire babbaire babita omu bigosi ebyʼamaani ngʼogaitireku nʼobudoobi obubitiriri, neye era eisangaalo lyabwe eryʼamaani lyabazwereiremu okugaba nʼomwoyo gumo.
3 Era mbakakasa nti bagabire ngʼowebeezya okugaba era nʼokukirawo, kaisi nga mukutaka kwabwe ibo abananyere.
4 Era batwegairiire ino tubawe enkabi gyʼokubbaaku nʼekibakola omu kuweererya abatuukirirye abʼomu Yerusaalemi.
5 Kaisi era bakolere ekitwabbaire titubasuubiriramu, ekyʼokusooka kuwaayo myoyo gyabwe eeri Musengwa oYesu, kaisi ni bagiwaayo eeri iswe swena ngʼoKibbumba oweyatakire.
6 Nʼolwekyo twasabire oTito iye eyatandiikisirye mwinywe omulimo ogwo ogwʼokusoloojerya abatuukirirye obubbeeri, okweyongera nagwo omu maiso era nʼokugumaliirirya.
7 Era ngʼowemuli basa ino mu buli kintu, ekikoba kiti, omu kwikirirya, nʼomu ntumula, nʼomu kumanya, nʼomu kubba nʼeiganyi era nʼomu kututaka, era tutaka okubabona nga mukola kusani ino nʼomu kugaba nʼomwoyo gumo.
8 Kale ekyo tindi kubalagira-bulagiri, neye ntaka kukakasa okutaka okwanywe nga ngeragerania nʼeiganyi lyʼabantu abandi, obanga dala kwona kwa mazima.
9 Inywe mumaite muti oMusengwa waiswe oYesu Kurisito wʼekisa kinene. Newankubbaire yabbaire musuni, yasuukire muntu omudoobi okulwanywe, kaisi olwʼobudoobibwe ayezye okubasuuca inywe basuni.
10 Era ekiseego kyange ekimbawa kwekyo kiri kiti: Ekikiraku obusa, inywe kumaliirirya mulimo ogumwatandiikire omwanka omulamba ogubitire. Niinywe omwasookere okutaka okugaba, era niinywe omwasookere nʼokutandiika okugaba.
11 Kale atyanu mumalirirye omulimo ogwo ogumwatandiikire. Era mulage eiganyi lyanywe erimwatandiikire nalyo. Era mugabe kusinzirira kubiibyo ebimuli nabyo.
12 Nkoba ntyo olwakubba, singa omuntu agaba nʼomwoyo gumo okusinzirira oku kyali nakyo, oKibbumba aikirirya ekirabokye olwakubba oKibbumba tasubiriramu omuntu okugaba ekyabula.
13 Mwekyo tintegeeza nti okugaba kwanywe kuli nʼokuwumuca bandi kugaba nga inywe mukaluba. Wazira, wali nʼokubbaawo obwenkanya.
14 Omu kiseera kinu muli nʼebingi, era mwezya nʼokubbeera abo ibo abali omu kwetaaga. Neye tete oluzwanyuma bona balibba nʼebingi era bayinza okubawaaku nywena nga muli omu kwetaaga. Era omu ngeri eyo obwenkanya bwalibba buliwo.
15 Era ngʼeKiwandiike owekikoba kiti:
“Iye oyo eyasoloojerye ebingi tiyasigazirye bingi ino,
era oyo iye eyasoloojerye ebitono, yabbaire nabyo ebimumala.”
OTito nʼabainaye babatuma e Kolinso
16 Neye neebalya oKibbumba, iye eyateekere omu mwoyo gwa Tito eiganyi lyʼokubalumirwa eriri ooti lyange.
17 Ekyo kityo tirwakubba kiti, yaikiriirye okusaba kwaiswe neye era yena onyere kwabbaire kutakakwe.
18 Era tumutumire ngʼali aamo nʼowoluganda ogondi iye okirifuma omu makanisa gonagona, omu kulaabba aMawuliro aMasa.
19 Era tikiikyo kyonkani, neye amakanisa gamulondere okwaba na iswe nga tutwala ekirabo ekyo e Yerusaalemi. Era ekirabo ekyo ekitutwala kyagulumalya oMusengwa oYesu era kyalaga ngʼowetuli nʼeiganyi omu kuwa obubbeeri.
20 Mwebyo byonabyona tukolere tutyo kwewala kwezuluguma okwezya okubbaawo olwʼengeri egitusoloojamu empiiya enyingi egityo era nʼengeri egitugigabamu.
21 Era ekigendererwa kyaiswe niiye iswe okukola ebisa, timu maiso ga Musengwa oKibbumba mwonkani, neye nʼomu maiso gʼabantu.
22 Era aboluganda abo abetutumire eeyo bali nʼowoluganda ogondi, era ogutugezeserye emirundi mingi, era ni tuvumbula ngʼali nʼeiganyi omu bintu bingi. Era atyanu tete yeeyongeire okubba nalyo olwakubba abeesiga ino inywe ati mwagaba nʼomwoyo gumo.
23 Atyanu iye oTito, mukoli munange era tukolera aamo naye olwʼokubagasa inywe. Kaisi aboluganda abo abaali nabo, ibo abʼamakanisa niibo ababatumire, era baweesya Kurisito kitiisya.
24 Kale atyanu mubalage muti muli nʼokutaka, kaisi amakanisa gonagona gakakase era gamanye gati inywe twabbaire batuuce okubeenyumirizaamu.
