3:1 Put 5279 0 them 846 in mind 5279 5720 to be subject 5293 5733 to principalities 746 and 2532 powers 1849, to obey magistrates 3980 5721, to be 1511 5750 ready 2092 to 4314 every 3956 good 18 work 2041,

3:2 To speak evil of 987 5721 no man 3367, to be 1511 5750 no brawlers 269, [but] gentle 1933, shewing 1731 5734 all 3956 meekness 4236 unto 4314 all 3956 men 444.

3:3 For 1063 we ourselves 2249 also 2532 were 2258 5713 453 0 sometimes 4218 foolish 453, disobedient 545, deceived 4105 5746, serving 1398 5723 divers 4164 lusts 1939 and 2532 pleasures 2237, living 1236 5723 in 1722 malice 2549 and 2532 envy 5355, hateful 4767, [and] hating 3404 5723 one another 240.

3:4 But 1161 after 3753 that the kindness 5544 and 2532 love 5363 0 of God 2316 our 2257 Saviour 4990 toward man 5363 appeared 2014 5648,(love: or, pity)

3:5 Not 3756 by 1537 works 2041 of 1722 righteousness 1343 which 3739 we 2249 have done 4160 5656, but 235 according to 2596 his 846 mercy 1656 he saved 4982 5656 us 2248, by 1223 the washing 3067 of regeneration 3824, and 2532 renewing 342 of the Holy 40 Ghost 4151;

3:6 Which 3739 he shed 1632 5656 on 1909 us 2248 abundantly 4146 through 1223 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 our 2257 Saviour 4990;(abundantly: Gr. richly)

3:7 That 2443 being justified by 1344 5685 his 1565 grace 5485, we should be made 1096 5638 heirs 2818 according to 2596 the hope 1680 of eternal 166 life 2222.

3:8 [This is] a faithful 4103 saying 3056, and 2532 these things 4012 5130 I will 1014 5736 that thou 4571 affirm constantly 1226 5738, that 2443 they which have believed 4100 5761 in God 2316 might be careful 5431 5725 to maintain 4291 5733 good 2570 works 2041. These things 5023 are 2076 5748 good 2570 and 2532 profitable 5624 unto men 444.

3:9 But 1161 avoid 4026 5732 foolish 3474 questions 2214, and 2532 genealogies 1076, and 2532 contentions 2054, and 2532 strivings about 3163 the law 3544; for 1063 they are 1526 5748 unprofitable 512 and 2532 vain 3152.

3:10 A man 444 that is an heretick 141 after 3326 the first 3391 and 2532 second 1208 admonition 3559 reject 3868 5737;

3:11 Knowing 1492 5761 that 3754 he that is such 5108 is subverted 1612 5769, and 2532 sinneth 264 5719, being 5607 5752 condemned of himself 843.

3:12 When 3752 I shall send 3992 5692 Artemas 734 unto 4314 thee 4571, or 2228 Tychicus 5190, be diligent 4704 5657 to come 2064 5629 unto 4314 me 3165 to 1519 Nicopolis 3533: for 1063 I have determined 2919 5758 there 1563 to winter 3914 5658.

3:13 Bring 4311 0 Zenas 2211 the lawyer 3544 and 2532 Apollos 625 on their journey 4311 5657 diligently 4709, that 2443 nothing 3367 be wanting 3007 5725 unto them 846.

3:14 And 1161 let 3129 0 ours 2251 also 2532 learn 3129 5720 to maintain 4291 5733 good 2570 works 2041 for 1519 necessary 316 uses 5532, that 3363 0 they be 5600 5753 not 3363 unfruitful 175.(maintain…: or, profess honest trades)

3:15 All 3956 that are with 3326 me 1700 salute 782 5736 thee 4571. Greet 782 5663 them that love 5368 5723 us 2248 in 1722 the faith 4102. Grace 5485 [be] with 3326 you 5216 all 3956. Amen 281. {It was written 1125 5648 to 4314 Titus 5103, ordained 5500 5685 the first 4413 bishop 1985 of the church 1577 of the Cretians 2912, from 575 Nicopolis 3533 of Macedonia 3109.}
