Titus 1:4-16

4To 1TitusG5103, 2my trueG1103 childG5043 3in a 4commonG2839 faithG4102: 5GraceG5485 and peaceG1515 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 and 6ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our SaviorG4990.

5For thisG3778 reasonG5484 I leftG620 you in 7CreteG2914, that you would setG1930 in orderG1930 what remainsG3007 and 8appointG2525 9eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172 as I directedG1299 you, 6namely, 10ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 is aboveG410 reproachG410, the 11husbandG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, havingG2192 childrenG5043 whoG4103 believeG4103, not accusedG2724 of 12dissipationG810 orG2228 13rebellionG506. 7For the 1415overseerG1985 mustG1163 be aboveG410 reproachG410 as 16God’sG2316 stewardG3623, not 17self-willedG829, not quick-temperedG3711, not 18addictedG3943 to wineG3943, not pugnaciousG4131, 19not fondG146 of sordidG146 gainG146, 8but 20hospitableG5382, 21lovingG5358 whatG5358 is goodG5358, sensibleG4998, justG1342, devoutG3741, self-controlledG1468, 922holdingG472 fastG472 the faithfulG4103 wordG3056 which is in accordanceG2596 with the teachingG1322, soG2443 that he will be ableG1415 bothG2532 to exhortG3870 in 23soundG5198 doctrineG1319 and to refuteG1651 thoseG3588 who contradictG483.

1024For there are manyG4183 25rebelliousG506 menG506, 26emptyG3151 talkersG3151 and deceiversG5423, especiallyG3122 27thoseG3588 of the circumcisionG4061, 11whoG3739 mustG1163 be silencedG1993 becauseG3748 they are upsettingG396 28wholeG3650 familiesG3624, teachingG1321 29thingsG3739 they shouldG1163 not teach 30for the sakeG5484 of sordidG150 gainG2771. 12OneG5100 of themselvesG846, a prophetG4396 of their ownG2398, saidG3004, “31CretansG2912 are alwaysG104 liarsG5583, evilG2556 beastsG2342, lazyG692 gluttonsG1064.” 13ThisG3778 testimonyG3141 is trueG227. For thisG3739 reasonG156 32reproveG1651 them 33severelyG664 soG2443 that they may be 34soundG5198 in the faithG4102, 14not payingG4337 attentionG4337 to JewishG2451 35mythsG3454 and 36commandmentsG1785 of menG444 who 37turnG654 awayG654 from the truthG225. 1538To the pureG2513, allG3956 thingsG3956 are pureG2513; but 39to thoseG3588 who are defiledG3392 and unbelievingG571, nothingG3762 is pureG2513, but bothG2532 their 40mindG3563 and their conscienceG4893 are defiledG3392. 1641They professG3670 to knowG3609 GodG2316, but by their deedsG2041 they 42denyG720 Him, beingG1510 43detestableG947 and 44disobedientG545 and 45worthlessG96 46for anyG3956 goodG18 deedG2041.
