World English Bible
1Admone illos principibus, et potestatibus subditos esse, dicto obedire, ad omne opus bonum paratos esse:
1Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
2neminem blasphemare, non litigiosos esse, sed modestos, omnem ostendentes mansuetudinem ad omnes homines.
2to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.
3Eramus enim aliquando et nos insipientes, increduli, errantes, servientes desideriis, et voluptatibus variis, in malitia et invidia agentes, odibiles, odientes invicem.
3For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4Cum autem benignitas et humanitas apparuit Salvatoris nostri Dei,
4But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,
5non ex operibus justitiæ, quæ fecimus nos, sed secundum suam misericordiam salvos nos fecit per lavacrum regenerationis et renovationis Spiritus Sancti,
5not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
6quem effudit in nos abunde per Jesum Christum Salvatorem nostrum:
6whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
7ut justificati gratia ipsius, hæredes simus secundum spem vitæ æternæ.
7that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
8Fidelis sermo est: et de his volo te confirmare: ut curent bonis operibus præesse qui credunt Deo. Hæc sunt bona, et utilia hominibus.
8This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;
9Stultas autem quæstiones, et genealogias, et contentiones, et pugnas legis devita: sunt enim inutiles, et vanæ.
9but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
10Hæreticum hominem post unam et secundam correptionem devita:
10Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,
11sciens quia subversus est, qui ejusmodi est, et delinquit, cum sit proprio judicio condemnatus.
11knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
12Cum misero ad te Artemam, aut Tychicum, festina ad me venire Nicopolim: ibi enim statui hiemare.
12When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
13Zenam legisperitum et Apollo sollicite præmitte, ut nihil illis desit.
13Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
14Discant autem et nostri bonis operibus præesse ad usus necessarios: ut non sint infructuosi.
14Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
15Salutant te qui mecum sunt omnes: saluta eos qui nos amant in fide. Gratia Dei cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
15All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
