[KJV] chapters
[1],[2],
Titus 3
1 Put them in mind to be subject to
principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to
be ready to every good work,
2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but
gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men.
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.
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our
Saviour toward man appeared,
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;
6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus
Christ our Saviour;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be
made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
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.
9 But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies,
and contentions, and strivings about the law; for
they are unprofitable and vain.
10 A man that is an heretick after the first and
second admonition reject;
11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and
sinneth, being condemned of himself.
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.
13 Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their
journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto
them.
14 And let ours also learn to maintain good works
for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful.
15 All that are with me salute thee. Greet them
that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
Amen.
