3:1

Admone illos principibus, et potestatibus subditos esse, dicto obedire, ad omne opus bonum paratos esse :

你要提醒眾人，叫他們順服作官的、掌權的，遵他的命，預備行各樣的善事。

Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

3:2

neminem blasphemare, non litigiosos esse, sed modestos, omnem ostendentes mansuetudinem ad omnes homines.

不要毀謗，不要爭競，總要和平，向眾人大顯溫柔。

to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.

3:3

Eramus enim aliquando et nos insipientes, increduli, errantes, servientes desideriis, et voluptatibus variis, in malitia et invidia agentes, odibiles, odientes invicem.

我們從前也是無知、悖逆、受迷惑、服事各樣私慾，和宴樂，常存惡毒嫉妒的心，是可恨的，又是彼此相恨。

For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

3:4

Cum autem benignitas et humanitas apparuit Salvatoris nostri Dei,

但到了上帝－我們救主的恩慈和他向人所施的慈愛顯明的時候，

But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,

3:5

non ex operibus justitiae, quae fecimus nos, sed secundum suam misericordiam salvos nos fecit per lavacrum regenerationis et renovationis Spiritus Sancti,

他便救了我們；並不是因我們自己所行的義，乃是照他的憐憫，藉着重生的洗和聖靈的更新。

not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

3:6

quem effudit in nos abunde per Jesum Christum Salvatorem nostrum :

聖靈就是上帝藉着耶穌基督－我們救主厚厚澆灌在我們身上的，

whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;

3:7

ut justificati gratia ipsius, haeredes simus secundum spem vitae aeternae.

好叫我們因他的恩得稱為義，可以憑着永生的盼望成為後嗣。

that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

3:8

Fidelis sermo est : et de his volo te confirmare : ut curent bonis operibus praeesse qui credunt Deo. Haec sunt bona, et utilia hominibus.

這話是可信的。我也願你把這些事切切實實地講明，使那些已信上帝的人留心做正經事業。這都是美事，並且與人有益。

This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;

3:9

Stultas autem quaestiones, et genealogias, et contentiones, et pugnas legis devita : sunt enim inutiles, et vanae.

要遠避無知的辯論和家譜的空談，以及紛爭，並因律法而起的爭競，因為這都是虛妄無益的。

but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
