New American Standard Bible 1995

Titus 3:2-7

2to malign no one, 1to be peaceable, 2gentle, 3showing every consideration for all men.

3 4For we also once were foolish ourselves, 5disobedient, 6deceived, 7enslaved to 8various lusts and pleasures, spending our life in 9malice and 10envy, hateful, hating one another.

4But when the 11kindness of 12God our Savior and His love for mankind 13appeared,

5 14He saved us, 15not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but 16according to His mercy, by the 17washing of regeneration and 18renewing by the Holy Spirit,

6 19whom He poured out upon us 20richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

7so that being justified by His grace we would be made 21heirs 22according to the hope of eternal life.
