Titus 1
1. Paul <3972>, a servant <1401> of God <2316>,
and an apostle
<652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, according
<2596> to the
faith <4102> of God's <2316> elect <1588>, and
the acknowledging
<1922> of the truth <225> which <3588> is after
<2596> godliness
<2150>;
2 In hope <1680> of eternal <166> life <2222>,
which <3739>
God <2316>, that cannot <893> lie <893>,
promised <1861> before
<4253> the world <166> began;
3 But hath in due <2398> times <2540> manifested
<5319> his
word <3056> through <1722> preaching <2782>,
which <3739> is
committed <4100> unto me according <2596> to the
commandment
<2003> of God <2316> our Saviour <4990>;
4 To Titus <5103>, [mine] own <1103> son <
5043> after <2596>
the common <2839> faith <4102>: Grace <5485>,
mercy <1656>,
[and] peace <1515>, from God <2316> the Father <
3962> and the
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our
Saviour <4990>.
5. For this <5127> cause <5484> left <2641> I
thee in Crete
<2914>, that thou shouldest set <1930> in order <
1930> the
things that are wanting <3007>, and ordain <2525>
elders <4245>
in every <2596> city <4172>, as I had appointed <
1299> thee:
6. If <1487> any <1536> be blameless <410>,
the husband <435>
of one <3391> wife <1135>, having <2192>
faithful <4103>
children <5043> not accused <1722> <2724> of
riot <810> or
<2228> unruly <506>.
7 For a bishop <1985> must <1163> be blameless <
410>, as the
steward <3622> of God <2316>; not selfwilled <
829>, not soon
<3711> angry <3711>, not given <3943> to wine
<3943>, no <3361>
striker <4131>, not given to filthy <150> lucre <
146>;
8 But a lover <5382> of hospitality <5382>, a lover
<5358> of
good <5358> men, sober <4998>, just <1342>,
holy <3741>,
temperate <1468>;
9 Holding <472> fast <472> the faithful <4103>
word <3056> as
he hath been taught <1322>, that he may be able <1415>
by sound
<5198> doctrine <1319> both <2532> to exhort
<3870> and to
convince <1651> the gainsayers <483>.
10 For there are many <4183> unruly <506> and vain
<3151>
talkers <3151> and deceivers <5423>, specially <
3122> they of
the circumcision <4061>:
11 Whose <3739> mouths <1993> must <1163> be
stopped <1993>,
who <3748> subvert <396> whole <3650> houses
<3624>, teaching
<1321> things which <3739> they ought <1163>
not, for filthy
<150> lucre's <2771> sake.
12 One <5100> of themselves <846>, [even] a prophet
<4396> of
their own <2398>, said <2036>, The Cretians <
2912> [are] alway
<104> liars <5583>, evil <2556> beasts <
2342>, slow <692>
bellies <1064>.
13 This <3778> witness <3141> is true <227>.
Wherefore <3739>
rebuke <1651> them sharply <664>, that they may be
sound <5198>
in the faith <4102>;
14 Not giving heed <4337> to Jewish <2451> fables
<3454>, and
commandments <1785> of men <444>, that turn <
654> from the truth
<225>.
15 Unto the pure <2513> all <3956> things [are]
pure <2513>:
but unto them that are defiled <3392> and unbelieving <
571> [is]
nothing <3762> pure <2513>; but even <2532>
their mind <3563>
and conscience <4893> is defiled <3392>.
16 They profess <3670> that they know <1492> God
<2316>; but
in works <2041> they deny <720> [him], being <
5607> abominable
<947>, and disobedient <545>, and unto every <
3956> good <18>
work <2041> reprobate <96>.
Titus 2
1. But speak <2980> thou the things which <3739>
become <4241>
sound <5198> doctrine <1319>:
2 That the aged <4246> men be sober <3524>, grave
<4586>,
temperate <4998>, sound <5198> in faith <4102>,
in charity <26>,
in patience <5281>.
3 The aged <4247> women <4247> likewise <5615>
, that [they be]
in behaviour <2688> as becometh <2412> holiness <
2412>, not
false <1228> accusers <1228>, not given <1402>
to much <4183>
wine <3631>, teachers <2567> of good <2567>
things;
4 That they may teach <4994> the young <3501> women
to be
sober <4994>, to love <5362> their husbands <
5362>, to love
<5388> their children <5388>,
5 [To be] discreet <4998>, chaste <53>, keepers <
3626> at
<3626> home <3626>, good <18>, obedient <
5293> to their own
<2398> husbands <435>, that the word <3056> of
God <2316> be not
blasphemed <987>.
6 Young <3501> men likewise <5615> exhort <
3870> to be sober
<4993> minded <4993>.
7 In all <3956> things shewing <3930> thyself <
4572> a pattern
<5179> of good <2570> works <2041>: in doctrine
<1319> [shewing]
uncorruptness <90>, gravity <4587>, sincerity <
861>,
8 Sound <5199> speech <3056>, that cannot <
176> be condemned
<176>; that he that is of the contrary <1727> part
may be
ashamed <1788>, having <2192> no <3367> evil
<5337> thing to say
<3004> of you.
9 [Exhort] servants <1401> to be obedient <5293>
unto their
own <2398> masters <1203>, [and] to please <
1511> [them] well
<2101> in all <3956> [things]; not answering <
488> again <483>;
10 Not purloining <3557>, but shewing <1731> all
<3956> good
<18> fidelity <4102>; that they may adorn <2885>
the doctrine
<1319> of God <2316> our Saviour <4990> in all
<3956> things.
11. For the grace <5485> of God <2316> that bringeth
<4992>
salvation <4992> hath appeared <2014> to all <
3956> men <444>,
12 Teaching <3811> us that, denying <720>
ungodliness <763>
and worldly <2886> lusts <1939>, we should live <
2198> soberly
<4996>, righteously <1346>, and godly <2153>,
in this <3588>
present <3568> world <165>;
13 Looking <4327> for that blessed <3107> hope <
1680>, and the
glorious <1391> appearing <2015> of the great <
3173> God <2316>
and our Saviour <4990> Jesus <2424> Christ <
5547>;
14 Who <3739> gave <1325> himself <1438> for
us, that he might
redeem <3084> us from all <3956> iniquity <458>,
and purify
<2511> unto himself <1438> a peculiar <4041>
people <2992>,
zealous <2207> of good <2570> works <2041>.
15. These <5023> things speak <2980>, and exhort <
3870>, and
rebuke <1651> with all <3956> authority <2003>.
Let no <3367>
man <3367> despise <4065> thee.
Titus 3
1. Put <5279> them in mind <5279> to be subject <
5293> to
principalities <746> and powers <1849>, to obey <
3980>
magistrates <3980>, to be ready <2092> to every <
3956> good <18>
work <2041>,
2 To speak <987> evil <987> of no <3367> man
<3367>, to be no
<269> brawlers <269>, [but] gentle <1933>,
shewing <1731> all
<3956> meekness <4236> unto all <3956> men <
444>.
3 For we ourselves <2249> also <2532> were
sometimes <4218>
foolish <453>, disobedient <545>, deceived <
4105>, serving
<1398> divers <4164> lusts <1939> and pleasures
<2237>, living
<1236> in malice <2549> and envy <5355>,
hateful <4767>, [and]
hating <3404> one <240> another <240>.
4 But after <3753> that the kindness <5544> and
love <5363> of
God <2316> our Saviour <4990> toward <4314> man
appeared <2014>,
5 Not by works <2041> of righteousness <1343> which
<3739> we
have done <4160>, but according <2596> to his mercy
<1656> he
saved <4982> us, by the washing <3067> of
regeneration <3824>,
and renewing <342> of the Holy <40> Ghost <4151>
;
6 Which <3739> he shed <1632> on <1909> us
abundantly <4146>
through <1223> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our
Saviour <4990>;
7 That being justified <1344> by his grace <5485>,
