Titus 1:5-14

5ForG1722 thisG3778 cause leftG620 IG1473 thee inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest setG1930 inG1722 orderG2443 theG3588 thingsG3778 thatG2443 were wanting, andG2532 appointG2525 eldersG4245 inG1722 everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 gaveG1299 thee chargeG2525;

6ifG1487 anyG5100 manG435 isG1510 blamelessG410, theG2192 husbandG435 ofG435 oneG1520 wifeG1135, havingG2192 childrenG5043 thatG5100 believeG4103, whoG5101 areG1510 notG3361 accusedG2724 ofG435 riot orG2228 unruly.

7ForG1063 theG3588 bishop must beG1510 blamelessG410, asG5613 God’sG2316 stewardG3623; notG3361 selfwilled, notG3361 soon angry, noG3361 brawler, noG3361 striker, notG3361 greedy ofG2316 filthy lucre;

8butG235 given toG1342 hospitality, a lover ofG1342 goodG5358, soberminded, justG1342, holyG3741, temperate;

9holdingG472 toG2443 theG3588 faithfulG4103 wordG3056 whichG3588 isG1510 accordingG2596 toG2443 theG3588 teachingG1322, thatG2443 heG2532 mayG2532 beG1510 ableG1415 bothG2532 toG2443 exhortG3870 inG1722 theG3588 soundG5198 doctrineG1319, andG2532 toG2443 convictG1651 theG3588 gainsayers.

10ForG1063 thereG1510 areG1510 manyG4183 unruly menG506, vain talkersG3151 andG2532 deceiversG5423, specially theyG2532 ofG1537 theG3588 circumcisionG4061,

11whoseG3739 mouths must beG1163 stopped; men whoG3739 overthrow wholeG3650 houses, teachingG1321 thingsG3739 whichG3739 theyG3739 oughtG1163 notG3361, forG3361 filthy lucre’s sakeG5484.

12OneG5100 ofG1537 themselvesG846, a prophetG4396 ofG1537 theirG846 ownG2398, saidG3004, CretansG2912 are alway liarsG5583, evilG2556 beastsG2342, idleG692 gluttonsG1064.

13ThisG3778 testimonyG3141 isG1510 trueG227. ForG1223 whichG3739 causeG156 reproveG1651 themG846 sharplyG664, thatG3739 theyG846 mayG2443 beG1510 soundG5198 inG1722 theG3588 faithG4102,

14notG3361 givingG4337 heed toG2532 JewishG2451 fablesG3454, andG2532 commandmentsG1785 ofG444 menG444 whoG3588 turnG654 awayG654 fromG3361 theG3588 truthG225.
