TITUS 1:1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ,
according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of
the truth which is after godliness;
TITUS 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie,
promised before the world began;
TITUS 1:3 But hath in due times manifested his word through
preaching, which is committed unto me according to the
commandment of God our Saviour;
TITUS 1:4 To Titus, {mine} own son after the common faith: Grace,
mercy, {and} peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ
our Saviour.
TITUS 1:5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou
shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain
elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
TITUS 1:6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having
faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
TITUS 1:7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God;
not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker,
not given to filthy lucre;
TITUS 1:8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober,
just, holy, temperate;
TITUS 1:9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught,
that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to
convince the gainsayers.
TITUS 1:10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and
deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
TITUS 1:11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole
houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's
sake.
TITUS 1:12 One of themselves, {even} a prophet of their own,
said, The Cretians {are} alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
TITUS 1:13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,
that they may be sound in the faith;
TITUS 1:14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of
men, that turn from the truth.
TITUS 1:15 Unto the pure all things {are} pure: but unto them
that are defiled and unbelieving {is} nothing pure; but even
their mind and conscience is defiled.
TITUS 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they
deny {him}, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every
good work reprobate.
TITUS 2:1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:
TITUS 2:2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in
faith, in charity, in patience.
TITUS 2:3 The aged women likewise, that {they be} in behaviour as
becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine,
teachers of good things;
TITUS 2:4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to
love their husbands, to love their children,
TITUS 2:5 {To be} discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good,
obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not
blasphemed.
TITUS 2:6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.
TITUS 2:7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works:
in doctrine {shewing} uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,
TITUS 2:8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is
of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say
of you.
TITUS 2:9 {Exhort} servants to be obedient unto their own
masters, {and} to please {them} well in all {things}; not
answering again;
TITUS 2:10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that
they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.
TITUS 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath
appeared to all men,
TITUS 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly
lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this
present world;
TITUS 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious
appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
TITUS 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from
all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous
of good works.
TITUS 2:15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all
authority. Let no man despise thee.
TITUS 3:1 Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and
powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work,
TITUS 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, {but}
gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
TITUS 3:3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish,
disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living
in malice and envy, hateful,{and} hating one another.
TITUS 3:4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour
toward man appeared,
TITUS 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but
according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of
regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
TITUS 3:6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our
Saviour;
TITUS 3:7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made
heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
TITUS 3:8 {This is} a faithful saying, and these things I will
that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God
might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good
and profitable unto men.
TITUS 3:9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and
contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are
unprofitable and vain.
TITUS 3:10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second
admonition reject;
TITUS 3:11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and
sinneth, being condemned of himself.
TITUS 3:12 When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be
diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined
there to winter.
TITUS 3:13 Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey
diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them.
TITUS 3:14 And let ours also learn to maintain good works for
necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
TITUS 3:15 All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love
us in the faith.  Grace {be} with you all. Amen.
