| Titus 1 Text (WEB)
|
- Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
- in hope of eternal life, which God, who can't lie, promised before time began;
- but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;
- to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
- I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you;
- if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
- For the overseer must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
- but given to hospitality, a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled;
- holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
- For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
- whose mouths must be stopped; men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain's sake.
- One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons."
- This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
- not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
- To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
- They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.

פולוס עבד אלהים ושליח ישוע המשיח לפי אמונת בחירי אלהים ודעת האמת אשר לחסידות׃
עלי תקות חיי העולם אשר הבטיח לפני ימות עולם האל אשר לא ישקר׃
וגלה במועדו את דברו על ידי הקריאה המפקדה בידי על פי מצות האלהים מושיענו׃
אל טיטוס בנו האמתי לפי אמונה אחת חסד ורחמים ושלום מאת האלהים אבינו ואדנינו ישוע המשיח מושיענו׃
לזאת עזבתיך בקריטי למען תשלים את החסד ותשים זקנים בכל עיר ועיר כאשר צויתיך׃
אם ימצא איש תם ובעל אשה אחת ויש לו בנים מאמינים ואין עליהם טענת פריצות ואינם סוררים׃
כי פקיד העדה צריך להיות איש תם כסכן לאלהים לא עמד על דעתו ולא רגזן ולא אהב יין ולא בעל אגרף ולא נטה אחרי הבצע׃
כי אם יהי מכניס ארחים ואהב טוב וצנוע וצדיק וקדוש וכבש את יצרו׃
ומחזיק בדבר הנאמן כפי ההוראה למען יהיה בכחו להזהיר בלקח הבריא ולהוכיח את המריבים׃
כי יש הרבה מרדים מדברי הבל ומתעי נפש ובפרט מן המולים׃
אשר סכור יסכר פיהם ההפכים בתים כלם בהורותם דברים לא כנים עקב בצע׃
וכבר אמר אחד מהם נביאם אשר בתוכם בני קריטי כזבים הם מעולם וחיות רעות וכרשים עצלים׃
והעדות הזאת אמת היא ובעבור כן תוכיחם תוכחה קשה למען יהיו בריאים באמונה׃
ולא ישימו לב אל הגדות היהודים ואל מצות האנשים הסרים מן האמת׃
הן הכל טהור לטהורים אבל לנטמאים ולאינם מאמינים אין דבר טהור כי נטמאה גם דעתם גם רוחם׃
אמרים המה כי ידעו את האלהים ובמעשיהם כופרים בו כי מתעבים וממרים הם ולא יצלחו לכל מעשה טוב׃

- Paulus servus Dei, Apostolus autem Jesu Christi secundum fidem electorum Dei, et agnitionem veritatis, quæ secundum pietatem est
- in spem vitæ æternæ, quam promisit qui non mentitur, Deus, ante tempora sæcularia :
- manifestavit autem temporibus suis verbum suum in prædicatione, quæ credita est mihi secundum præceptum Salvatoris nostri Dei :
- Tito dilecto filio secundum communem fidem, gratia, et pax a Deo Patre, et Christo Jesu Salvatore nostro.
- Hujus rei gratia reliqui te Cretæ, ut ea quæ desunt, corrigas, et constituas per civitates presbyteros, sicut et ego disposui tibi,
- si quis sine crimine est, unius uxoris vir, filios habens fideles, non in accusatione luxuriæ, aut non subditos.
- Oportet enim episcopum sine crimine esse, sicut Dei dispensatorem : non superbum, non iracundum, non vinolentum, non percussorem, non turpis lucri cupidum :
- sed hospitalem, benignum, sobrium, justum, sanctum, continentem,
- amplectentem eum, qui secundum doctrinam est, fidelem sermonem : ut potens sit exhortari in doctrina sana, et eos qui contradicunt, arguere.
- Sunt enim multi etiam inobedientes, vaniloqui, et seductores : maxime qui de circumcisione sunt :
- quos oportet redargui : qui universas domos subvertunt, docentes quæ non oportet, turpis lucri gratia.
- Dixit quidam ex illis, proprius ipsorum propheta : Cretenses semper mendaces, malæ bestiæ, ventres pigri.
- Testimonium hoc verum est. Quam ob causam increpa illos dure, ut sani sint in fide,
- non intendentes judaicis fabulis, et mandatis hominum, aversantium se a veritate.
- Omnia munda mundis : coinquinatis autem et infidelibus, nihil est mundum, sed inquinatæ sunt eorum et mens et conscientia.
- Confitentur se nosse Deum, factis autem negant : cum sint abominati, et incredibiles, et ad omne opus bonum reprobi.

| Titus 1 Text (KJV)
|
- 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;
- In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
- But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
- To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.
- 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:
- If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
- 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;
- But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
- 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.
- For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
- Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.
- One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.
- This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
- Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.
- 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.
- They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
