Paul^G3972, a servant^G1401 of God^G2316, and^G1161 an apostle^G652 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, according to^G2596 the faith^G4102 of God's^G2316 elect^G1588, and^G2532 the acknowledging^G1922 of the truth^G225 which^G3588 is after^G2596 godliness^G2150;²In^G1909 hope^G1680 of eternal^G166 life^G2222, which^G3739 God^G2316, that cannot lie^G893, promised^G1861 before^G4253 the world^G166 began^G5550;³But^G1161 hath^G5319 in due^G2398 times^G2540 manifested^G5319 his^G846 word^G3056 through^G1722 preaching^G2782, which^G3739 is committed^G4100 unto me^G1473 according to^G2596 the commandment^G2003 of God^G2316 our^G2257 Saviour^G4990;⁴To Titus^G5103, mine own^G1103 son^G5043 after^G2596 the common^G2839 faith^G4102: Grace^G5485, mercy^G1656, and peace^G1515, from^G575 God^G2316 the Father^G3962 and^G2532 the Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 our^G2257 Saviour^G4990.⁵For this^G5127 cause^G5484 left I^G2641 thee^G4571 in^G1722 Crete^G2914, that^G2443 thou shouldest set in order^G1930 the things that are wanting^G3007, and^G2532 ordain^G2525 elders^G4245 in every^G2596 city^G4172, as^G5613 I^G1473 had appointed^G1299 thee^G4671:⁶If any^G1536 be^G2076 blameless^G410, the husband^G435 of one^G3391 wife^G1135, having^G2192 faithful^G4103 children^G5043 not^G3361 accused^{G1722 G2724} of riot^G810 or^G2228 unruly^G506.⁷For^G1063 a bishop^G1985 must^G1163 be^G1511 blameless^G410, as^G5613 the steward^G3623 of God^G2316; not^G3361 selfwilled^G829, not^G3361 soon angry^G3711, not^G3361 given to wine^G3943, no^G3361 striker^G4131, not^G3361 given to filthy lucre^G146;⁸But^G235 a lover of hospitality^G5382, a lover of good men^G5358, sober^G4998, just^G1342, holy^G3741, temperate^G1468;⁹Holding fast^G472 the faithful^G4103 word^G3056 as^G2596 he hath been taught^G1322, that^G2443 he may be^G5600 able^G1415 by^G1722 sound^G5198 doctrine^G1319 both^G2532 to exhort^G3870 and^G2532 to convince^G1651 the gainsayers^G483.¹⁰For^G1063 there are^G1526 many^G4183 unruly^G506 and^G2532 vain talkers^G3151 and^G2532 deceivers^G5423, specially^G3122 they of^G1537 the circumcision^G4061:¹¹Whose^G3739 mouths^G1993 must^G1163 be stopped^G1993, who^G3748 subvert^G396 whole^G3650 houses^G3624, teaching^G1321 things which^G3739 they ought^G1163 not^G3361, for^G5484 filthy^G150 lucre's^G2771 sake^G5484.¹²One^G5100 of^G1537 themselves^G846, even a prophet^G4396 of their^G846 own^G2398, said^G2036, The Cretians^G2912 are alway^G104 liars^G5583, evil^G2556 beasts^G2342, slow^G692 bellies^G1064.¹³This^G3778 witness^G3141 is^G2076 true^G227. Wherefore^{G1223 G3739 G156} rebuke^G1651 them^G846 sharply^G664, that^G2443 they may be sound^G5198 in^G1722 the faith^G4102;¹⁴Not^G3361 giving heed^G4337 to Jewish^G2451 fables^G3454, and^G2532 commandments^G1785 of men^G444, that turn from^G654 the truth^G225.¹⁵Unto the pure^G2513 all things^G3956 are pure^{G3303 G2513}: but^G1161 unto them that are defiled^G3392 and^G2532 unbelieving^G571 is nothing^G3762 pure^G2513; but^G235 even^G2532 their^G846 mind^G3563 and^G2532 conscience^G4893 is defiled^G3392.¹⁶They profess^G3670 that they know^G1492 God^G2316; but^G1161 in works^G2041 they deny^G720 him, being^G5607 abominable^G947, and^G2532 disobedient^G545, and^G2532 unto^G4314 every^G3956 good^G18 work^G2041 reprobate^G96.
