Titus 1:4-16

4To 1TitusG5103, 2my trueG1103 3sonG5043 4in a 5commonG2839 faithG4102: 6GraceG5485 and peaceG1515 from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 and 7ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our SaviorG4990.

5For thisG3778 reasonG5484 I leftG620 you in 8CreteG2914, that you would setG1930 inG1930 orderG1930 what remainsG3007 and 9appointG2525 10eldersG4245 inG2596 everyG2596 cityG4172 as I directedG1299 you, 6namely, 11ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 is beyondG410 reproachG410, the 12husbandG435 of oneG1520 wifeG1135, havingG2192 childrenG5043 whoG4103 believeG4103, not accusedG2724 of 13indecentG810 behaviorG810 orG2228 14rebellionG506. 7For the 1516overseerG1985 mustG1163 be beyondG410 reproachG410 as 17God’sG2316 stewardG3623, not 18self-willedG829, not quick-temperedG3711, not 19overindulgingG3943 inG3943 wineG3943, not 20a bullyG4131, 21not greedyG146 forG146 moneyG146, 8but 22hospitableG5382, 23lovingG5358 whatG5358 isG5358 goodG5358, self-controlledG4998, righteousG1342, holyG3741, disciplinedG1468, 924holdingG472 firmlyG472 the faithfulG4103 wordG3056 which is inG2596 accordanceG2596 withG2596 the teachingG1322, soG2443 thatG2443 he will be ableG1415 bothG2532 to 25exhortG3870 in 26soundG5198 doctrineG1319 and to refuteG1651 thoseG3588 who contradictG483 it.

1027For there are manyG4183 28rebelliousG506 peopleG506, 29emptyG3151 talkersG3151 and deceiversG5423, especiallyG3122 30thoseG3588 of the circumcisionG4061, 11whoG3739 mustG1163 be silencedG1993 becauseG3748 they are upsettingG396 31wholeG3650 familiesG3624, teachingG1321 32thingsG3739 they shouldG1163 not teach 33for the sakeG5484 of 34dishonestG150 gainG2771. 12OneG5100 of themG846, a prophetG4396 of their ownG2398, saidG3004, “35CretansG2912 are alwaysG104 liarsG5583, evilG2556 beastsG2342, lazyG692 gluttonsG1064.” 13ThisG3778 testimonyG3141 is trueG227. For thisG3739 reasonG156 36reprimandG1651 them 37severelyG664 soG2443 thatG2443 they may be 38soundG5198 in the faithG4102, 14not payingG4337 attentionG4337 to JewishG2451 39mythsG3454 and 40commandmentsG1785 of menG444 who 41turnG654 awayG654 from the truthG225. 1542To the pureG2513, allG3956 thingsG3956 are pureG2513; but 43to thoseG3588 who are defiledG3392 and unbelievingG571, nothingG3762 is pureG2513, but bothG2532 their 44mindG3563 and their conscienceG4893 are defiledG3392. 1645They professG3670 to knowG3609 GodG2316, but by their deedsG2041 they 46denyG720 Him, beingG1510 47detestableG947 and 48disobedientG545 and 49worthlessG96 50for anyG3956 goodG18 deedG2041.
