Titus 1:2-16

2in 1the hopeG1680 of eternalG166 lifeG2222, whichG3739 GodG2316, 2whoG893 cannotG893 lieG893, 3promisedG1861 45longG5550 agesG5550 agoG4253, 3but 6at the properG2398 timeG2540 manifestedG5319, even His wordG3056, in 7the proclamationG2782 8with whichG3739 I was entrustedG4100 9accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of 10GodG2316 our SaviorG4990,

4To 11TitusG5103, 12my trueG1103 childG5043 13in a 14commonG2839 faithG4102: 15GraceG5485 and peaceG1515 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 and 16ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our SaviorG4990.

5For thisG3778 reasonG5484 I leftG620 you in 17CreteG2914, that you would setG1930 in orderG1930 what remainsG3007 and 18appointG2525 19eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172 as I directedG1299 you, 6namely, 20ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 is aboveG410 reproachG410, the 21husbandG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, havingG2192 childrenG5043 whoG4103 believeG4103, not accusedG2724 of 22dissipationG810 orG2228 23rebellionG506. 7For the 2425overseerG1985 mustG1163 be aboveG410 reproachG410 as 26God’sG2316 stewardG3623, not 27self-willedG829, not quick-temperedG3711, not 28addictedG3943 to wineG3943, not pugnaciousG4131, 29not fondG146 of sordidG146 gainG146, 8but 30hospitableG5382, 31lovingG5358 whatG5358 is goodG5358, sensibleG4998, justG1342, devoutG3741, self-controlledG1468, 932holdingG472 fastG472 the faithfulG4103 wordG3056 which is in accordanceG2596 with the teachingG1322, soG2443 that he will be ableG1415 bothG2532 to exhortG3870 in 33soundG5198 doctrineG1319 and to refuteG1651 thoseG3588 who contradictG483.

1034For there are manyG4183 35rebelliousG506 menG506, 36emptyG3151 talkersG3151 and deceiversG5423, especiallyG3122 37thoseG3588 of the circumcisionG4061, 11whoG3739 mustG1163 be silencedG1993 becauseG3748 they are upsettingG396 38wholeG3650 familiesG3624, teachingG1321 39thingsG3739 they shouldG1163 not teach 40for the sakeG5484 of sordidG150 gainG2771. 12OneG5100 of themselvesG846, a prophetG4396 of their ownG2398, saidG3004, “41CretansG2912 are alwaysG104 liarsG5583, evilG2556 beastsG2342, lazyG692 gluttonsG1064.” 13ThisG3778 testimonyG3141 is trueG227. For thisG3739 reasonG156 42reproveG1651 them 43severelyG664 soG2443 that they may be 44soundG5198 in the faithG4102, 14not payingG4337 attentionG4337 to JewishG2451 45mythsG3454 and 46commandmentsG1785 of menG444 who 47turnG654 awayG654 from the truthG225. 1548To the pureG2513, allG3956 thingsG3956 are pureG2513; but 49to thoseG3588 who are defiledG3392 and unbelievingG571, nothingG3762 is pureG2513, but bothG2532 their 50mindG3563 and their conscienceG4893 are defiledG3392. 1651They professG3670 to knowG3609 GodG2316, but by their deedsG2041 they 52denyG720 Him, beingG1510 53detestableG947 and 54disobedientG545 and 55worthlessG96 56for anyG3956 goodG18 deedG2041.
