| The Book of Titus 1 | ||||||||||||||||
| The Darby Online Bible (DBY) | ||||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:1 | Paul, bondman of God, and apostle of Jesus Christ according to [the] faith of God's elect, and knowledge of [the] truth which [is] according to piety; | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:2 | in [the] hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before the ages of time, | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:3 | but has manifested in its own due season his word, in [the] proclamation with which *I* have been entrusted, according to [the] commandment of our Saviour God; | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:4 | to Titus, my own child according to [the] faith common [to us]: Grace and peace from God [the] Father, and Christ Jesus our Saviour. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:5 | For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou mightest go on to set right what remained [unordered], and establish elders in each city, as *I* had ordered thee: | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:6 | if any one be free from all charge [against him], husband of one wife, having believing children not accused of excess or unruly. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:7 | For the overseer must be free from all charge [against him] as God's steward; not headstrong, not passionate, not disorderly through wine, not a striker, not seeking gain by base means; | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:8 | but hospitable, a lover of goodness, discreet, just, pious, temperate, | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:9 | clinging to the faithful word according to the doctrine taught, that he may be able both to encourage with sound teaching and refute gainsayers. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:10 | For there are many and disorderly vain speakers and deceivers of people's minds, specially those of [the] circumcision, | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:11 | who must have their mouths stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which ought not [to be taught] for the sake of base gain. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:12 | One of themselves, a prophet of their own, has said, Cretans are always liars, evil wild beasts, lazy gluttons. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:13 | This testimony is true; for which cause rebuke them severely, that they may be sound in the faith, | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:14 | not turning [their] minds to Jewish fables and commandments of men turning away from the truth. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:15 | All things [are] pure to the pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing [is] pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. | |||||||||||||||
| Titus 1:16 | They profess to know God, but in works deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and found worthless as to every good work. | |||||||||||||||
