    {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.
