Paul [3972], a servant [1401] of God [2316], and [1161] an apostle [0652] of Jesus [2424] Christ [5547], according to [2596] the faith [4102] of God's [2316] elect [1588], and [2532] the acknowledging [1922] of the truth [0225] which [3588] is after [2596] godliness [2150];
2
In [1909] hope [1680] of eternal [0166] life [2222], which [3739] God [2316], that cannot lie [0893], promised [1861] [5662] before [4253] the world [0166] began [5550];
3
But [1161] hath [5319] [0000] in due [2398] times [2540] manifested [5319] [5656] his [0848] word [3056] through [1722] preaching [2782], which [3739] is committed [4100] [5681] unto me [1473] according to [2596] the commandment [2003] of God [2316] our [2257] Saviour [4990];
4
To Titus [5103], [mine] own [1103] son [5043] after [2596] the common [2839] faith [4102]: Grace [5485], mercy [1656], [and] peace [1515], from [0575] God [2316] the Father [3962] and [2532] the Lord [2962] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] our [2257] Saviour [4990].
5
For this [5127] cause [5484] left I [2641] [5627] thee [4571] in [1722] Crete [2914], that [2443] thou shouldest set in order [1930] [5672] the things that are wanting [3007] [5723], and [2532] ordain [2525] [5661] elders [4245] in every [2596] city [4172], as [5613] I [1473] had appointed [1299] [5668] thee [4671]:
6
If any [1536] be [2076] [5748] blameless [0410], the husband [0435] of one [3391] wife [1135], having [2192] [5723] faithful [4103] children [5043] not [3361] accused [1722] [2724] of riot [0810] or [2228] unruly [0506].
7
For [1063] a bishop [1985] must [1163] [5748] be [1511] [5750] blameless [0410], as [5613] the steward [3623] of God [2316]; not [3361] selfwilled [0829], not [3361] soon angry [3711], not [3361] given to wine [3943], no [3361] striker [4131], not [3361] given to filthy lucre [0146];
8
But [0235] a lover of hospitality [5382], a lover of good men [5358], sober [4998], just [1342], holy [3741], temperate [1468];
9
Holding fast [0472] [5740] the faithful [4103] word [3056] as [2596] he hath been taught [1322], that [2443] he may be [5600] [5753] able [1415] by [1722] sound [5198] [5723] doctrine [1319] both [2532] to exhort [3870] [5721] and [2532] to convince [1651] [5721] the gainsayers [0483] [5723].
10
For [1063] there are [1526] [5748] many [4183] unruly [0506] and [2532] vain talkers [3151] and [2532] deceivers [5423], specially [3122] they of [1537] the circumcision [4061]:
11
Whose [3739] mouths [1993] [0000] must [1163] [5748] be stopped [1993] [5721], who [3748] subvert [0396] [5719] whole [3650] houses [3624], teaching [1321] [5723] things which [3739] they ought [1163] [5748] not [3361], for [5484] [0000] filthy [0150] lucre's [2771] sake [5484].
12
One [5100] of [1537] themselves [0846], [even] a prophet [4396] of their own [2398], said [2036] [5627], The Cretians [2912] [are] alway [0104] liars [5583], evil [2556] beasts [2342], slow [0692] bellies [1064].
13
This [3778] witness [3141] is [2076] [5748] true [0227]. Wherefore [1223] [3739] [0156] rebuke [1651] [5720] them [0846] sharply [0664], that [2443] they may be sound [5198] [5725] in [1722] the faith [4102];
14
Not [3361] giving heed [4337] [5723] to Jewish [2451] fables [3454], and [2532] commandments [1785] of men [0444], that turn from [0654] [5734] the truth [0225].
15
Unto the pure [2513] all things [3956] [are] pure [3303] [2513]: but [1161] unto them that are defiled [3392] [5772] and [2532] unbelieving [0571] [is] nothing [3762] pure [2513]; but [0235] even [2532] their [0846] mind [3563] and [2532] conscience [4893] is defiled [3392] [5769].
16
They profess [3670] [5719] that they know [1492] [5760] God [2316]; but [1161] in works [2041] they deny [0720] [5736] [him], being [5607] [5752] abominable [0947], and [2532] disobedient [0545], and [2532] unto [4314] every [3956] good [0018] work [2041] reprobate [0096].
