1 Do thou remind them to governments and authorities to be submissive, to obey rulers, as to every work good ready to be,

2 no one to speak evil of, not quarrelsome to be, gentle, all showing mildness to all men. Titus

3 Were for formerly also we, senseless ones, disobedient ones, erring ones, being enslaved to inordinate desires and pleasures various, in malice and envy passing through, odious ones, hating each other.

4 When but the kindness and the love to man shone forth of the preserver of us of God, Titus

5 not from of works of those in righteousness which did we, but according to of himself mercy he saved us, through a bath of a new birth, and a renovation of spirit holy,

6 of which he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Anointed the saviour of us,

7 so that having been justified by the of him favor, heirs we might become according to a hope of life age–lasting.

8 True the word; and respecting these things I wish thee to affirm strongly, so that they may be careful of good works to excel those having believed in the God. These is the things good and profitable to the men;

9 foolish but questions and genealogies and strifes and fightings about law; they are for unprofitable and vain.

10 A factious man after a first and second admonition do thou reject;

11 knowing, that has been perverted the such a one, and sins, being self–condemned.

12 When I shall send Artemas to thee or Tychicus, earnestly endeavor to come to me to Nicopolis; there for I have decided to winter.

13 Zenas the lawyer and Apollos diligently send on before, so that nothing to them may be lacking.

14 Let and also the ours of good works to excel for the pressing wants, so that not they may be unfruitful.

15 Salute thee those with me all; salute thou those loving us in faith. The favor with all of you.

1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, and to be ready to do every good work,

2 to speak evil of no man, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all meekness toward all men.

3 For we also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.

4 When the kindness of God our Savior, and his love toward man, appeared,

5 not by works done in righteousness, which we did, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration restorationspiritual rebirth and renewing renovation of the Holy Spirit.

6 He poured Spirit out upon us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior.

7 Being justified by his grace loving kindness, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

8 Faithful is the saying, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, to the end that they who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.

9 You should avoid foolish arguing and dissentions, questioning; and genealogies, and arguing about law, for they are unprofitable and vain.

10 A divisive and dissentious man should be admonished, and after two times have nothing to do with that man.

11 You know that man sins and is perverted. He is self-condemned.

12 When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, give diligence to come to me at Nicopolis where I will winter.

13 Send Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollos on their journey quickly and see that they lack nothing.

14 Help our people learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they are not unfruitful.

15 All that are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
