Titus 1:2-16

2in 1the hopeG1680 of eternalG166 lifeG2222, whichG3739 GodG2316, 2whoG893 cannotG893 lieG893, 3promisedG1861 45longG5550 agesG5550 agoG4253, 3but 6at the properG2398 timeG2540 revealedG5319 His wordG3056 in 7the proclamationG2782 8with whichG3739 I was entrustedG4100 9accordingG2596 to the commandmentG2003 of 10GodG2316 our SaviorG4990;

4To 11TitusG5103, 12my trueG1103 13sonG5043 14in a 15commonG2839 faithG4102: 16GraceG5485 and peaceG1515 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 and 17ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our SaviorG4990.

5For thisG3778 reasonG5484 I leftG620 you in 18CreteG2914, that you would setG1930 inG1930 orderG1930 what remainsG3007 and 19appointG2525 20eldersG4245 inG2596 everyG2596 cityG4172 as I directedG1299 you, 6namely, 21ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 is beyondG410 reproachG410, the 22husbandG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, havingG2192 childrenG5043 whoG4103 believeG4103, not accusedG2724 of 23indecentG810 behaviorG810 orG2228 24rebellionG506. 7For the 2526overseerG1985 mustG1163 be beyondG410 reproachG410 as 27God’sG2316 stewardG3623, not 28self-willedG829, not quick-temperedG3711, not 29overindulgingG3943 inG3943 wineG3943, not 30a bullyG4131, 31not greedyG146 forG146 moneyG146, 8but 32hospitableG5382, 33lovingG5358 whatG5358 isG5358 goodG5358, self-controlledG4998, righteousG1342, holyG3741, disciplinedG1468, 934holdingG472 firmlyG472 the faithfulG4103 wordG3056 which is inG2596 accordanceG2596 withG2596 the teachingG1322, soG2443 thatG2443 he will be ableG1415 bothG2532 to 35exhortG3870 in 36soundG5198 doctrineG1319 and to refuteG1651 thoseG3588 who contradictG483 it.

1037For there are manyG4183 38rebelliousG506 peopleG506, 39emptyG3151 talkersG3151 and deceiversG5423, especiallyG3122 40thoseG3588 of the circumcisionG4061, 11whoG3739 mustG1163 be silencedG1993 becauseG3748 they are upsettingG396 41wholeG3650 familiesG3624, teachingG1321 42thingsG3739 they shouldG1163 not teach 43for the sakeG5484 of 44dishonestG150 gainG2771. 12OneG5100 of themG846, a prophetG4396 of their ownG2398, saidG3004, “45CretansG2912 are alwaysG104 liarsG5583, evilG2556 beastsG2342, lazyG692 gluttonsG1064.” 13ThisG3778 testimonyG3141 is trueG227. For thisG3739 reasonG156 46reprimandG1651 them 47severelyG664 soG2443 thatG2443 they may be 48soundG5198 in the faithG4102, 14not payingG4337 attentionG4337 to JewishG2451 49mythsG3454 and 50commandmentsG1785 of menG444 who 51turnG654 awayG654 from the truthG225. 1552To the pureG2513, allG3956 thingsG3956 are pureG2513; but 53to thoseG3588 who are defiledG3392 and unbelievingG571, nothingG3762 is pureG2513, but bothG2532 their 54mindG3563 and their conscienceG4893 are defiledG3392. 1655They professG3670 to knowG3609 GodG2316, but by their deedsG2041 they 56denyG720 Him, beingG1510 57detestableG947 and 58disobedientG545 and 59worthlessG96 60for anyG3956 goodG18 deedG2041.
