Titus 1:5-9
5The reasonG5484G3778 I leftG620 youG4771 inG1722 CreteG2914 was thatG2443 you would set in orderG1930 what wasG3588 unfinishedG3007 andG2532 appointG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 townG4172, asG5613 IG1473 directedG1299 youG4771. 6An elder must beG1510 blamelessG410, the husbandG435 of but oneG1520 wifeG1135,1 havingG2192 childrenG5043 who are believersG4103 and who are notG3361 open toG1722 accusationG2724 of indiscretionG810 orG2228 insubordinationG506.
AsG5613 God’sG2316 stewardG3623, an overseerG1985 mustG1163 beG1510 above reproachG410—notG3361 self-willedG829, notG3361 quick-temperedG3711, notG3361 given to drunkennessG3943, notG3361 violentG4131, notG3361 greedy for moneyG146. 8InsteadG235, he must be hospitableG5382, a lover of goodG5358, self-controlledG4998, uprightG1342, holyG3741, and disciplinedG1468. 9He must hold firmlyG472 to theG3588 faithfulG4103 wordG3056 asG2596 it was taughtG1322, so thatG2443 he canG1510G1415G2532 encourageG3870 others byG1722 soundG5198 teachingG1319 andG2532 refuteG1651 those whoG3588 contradictG483 it.
