Titus 3:1-9

1PutG5293 them in mind to beG1510 subjectG5293 to rulersG746, to authoritiesG1849, to beG1510 obedientG3980 to ruleG746, to beG1510 readyG2092 to do every goodG18 workG2041,

2to speak evil of no oneG3367, not to beG1510 contentious, [to beG1510] mild, shewing all meekness towards all menG444.

3For we wereG1510 onceG4218 ourselves alsoG2532 without intelligence, disobedientG545, wandering in error, servingG1398 variousG4164 lustsG1939 and pleasures, living in maliceG2549 and envyG5355, hateful, [and] hatingG3404 oneG240 another.

4But whenG3753 the kindnessG5544 and love to man of our Saviour 1GodG2316 appearedG2014,

5not on the principle of worksG2041 which [have been done] in righteousnessG1343 which we had done, but accordingG2596 to his own mercyG1656 he savedG4982 us through [the] washingG3067 of regenerationG3824 and renewal of [the] HolyG40 SpiritG4151,

6which he poured out on us richlyG4146 through JesusG2424 ChristG5547 our Saviour;

7that, having been justifiedG1344 by his graceG5485, we should becomeG1096 heirsG2818 accordingG2596 to [the] hopeG1680 of eternalG166 lifeG2222.

8The wordG3056 [isG1510] faithfulG4103, and I desire that thou insist strenuously on these thingsG3778, that they who have believedG4100 2GodG2316 may take care to pay diligent attention to goodG2570 worksG2041. These thingsG3778 areG1510 goodG2570 and profitableG5624 to menG444.

9But foolishG3474 questions, and genealogiesG1076, and strifes, and contentions about the law, shun; for they areG1510 unprofitable and vain.
