Titus 1:5-11

5For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you—

6if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of dissipation or insubordination.

7For a bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money,

8but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled,

9holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.

10For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

11whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
