1 # Paul <3972>, a servant <1401> of God <2316>, and <1161> an apostle <652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, according to <2596> the faith <4102> of God's <2316> elect <1588>, and <2532> the acknowledging <1922> of the truth <225> which <3588> is after <2596> godliness <2150>;
2 In <1909> hope <1680> of eternal <166> life <2222>, which <3739> God <2316>, that cannot lie <893>, promised <1861> (5662) before <4253> the world <166> began <5550>;
 - HOPE
3 But <1161> hath <5319> <0> in due <2398> times <2540> manifested <5319> (5656) his <846> word <3056> through <1722> preaching <2782>, which <3739> is committed <4100> (5681) unto me <1473> according to <2596> the commandment <2003> of God <2316> our <2257> Saviour <4990>;
 - KAIROS - TIME - PREACHING
4 To Titus <5103>, mine own <1103> son <5043> after <2596> the common <2839> faith <4102>: Grace <5485>, mercy <1656>, and peace <1515>, from <575> God <2316> the Father <3962> and <2532> the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Saviour <4990>.
5 # For this <5127> cause <5484> left I <2641> (5627) thee <4571> in <1722> Crete <2914> , that <2443> thou shouldest set in order <1930> (5672) the things that are wanting <3007> (5723), and <2532> ordain <2525> (5661) elders <4245> in every <2596> city <4172>, as <5613> I <1473> had appointed <1299> (5668) thee <4671>:
6 # If any <1536> be <2076> (5748) blameless <410>, the husband <435> of one <3391> wife <1135> , having <2192> (5723) faithful <4103> children <5043> not <3361> accused <1722> <2724> of riot <810> or <2228> unruly <506>.
7 For <1063> a bishop <1985> must <1163> (5748) be <1511> (5750) blameless <410>, as <5613> the steward <3623> of God <2316>; not <3361> selfwilled <829>, not <3361> soon angry <3711>, not <3361> given to wine <3943>, no <3361> striker <4131>, not <3361> given to filthy lucre <146>;
8 But <235> a lover of hospitality <5382>, a lover of good men <5358>, sober <4998>, just <1342>, holy <3741>, temperate <1468>;
9 Holding fast <472> (5740) the faithful <4103> word <3056> as <2596> he hath been taught <1322>, that <2443> he may be <5600> (5753) able <1415> by <1722> sound <5198> (5723) doctrine <1319> both <2532> to exhort <3870> (5721) and <2532> to convince <1651> (5721) the gainsayers <483> (5723).
10 For <1063> there are <1526> (5748) many <4183> unruly <506> and <2532> vain talkers <3151> and <2532> deceivers <5423>, specially <3122> they of <1537> the circumcision <4061>:
11 Whose <3739> mouths <1993> <0> must <1163> (5748) be stopped <1993> (5721), who <3748> subvert <396> (5719) whole <3650> houses <3624>, teaching <1321> (5723) things which <3739> they ought <1163> (5748) not <3361>, for <5484> <0> filthy <150> lucre's <2771> sake <5484>.
12 One <5100> of <1537> themselves <846>, even a prophet <4396> of their <846> own <2398>, said <2036> (5627), The Cretians <2912> are alway <104> liars <5583>, evil <2556> beasts <2342>, slow <692> bellies <1064>.
13 This <3778> witness <3141> is <2076> (5748) true <227>. Wherefore <1223> <3739> <156> rebuke <1651> (5720) them <846> sharply <664>, that <2443> they may be sound <5198> (5725) in <1722> the faith <4102>;
14 Not <3361> giving heed <4337> (5723) to Jewish <2451> fables <3454>, and <2532> commandments <1785> of men <444>, that turn from <654> (5734) the truth <225>.
15 Unto the pure <2513> all things <3956> are pure <3303> <2513>: but <1161> unto them that are defiled <3392> (5772) and <2532> unbelieving <571> is nothing <3762> pure <2513>; but <235> even <2532> their <846> mind <3563> and <2532> conscience <4893> is defiled <3392> (5769).
16 They profess <3670> (5719) that they know <1492> (5760) God <2316>; but <1161> in works <2041> they deny <720> (5736) him, being <5607> (5752) abominable <947>, and <2532> disobedient <545>, and <2532> unto <4314> every <3956> good <18> work <2041> reprobate <96>.
