Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Paul, 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,
1παυλοσ δουλοσ θεου αποστολοσ δε ιησου χριστου κατα πιστιν εκλεκτων θεου και επιγνωσιν αληθειασ τησ κατ ευσεβειαν
2in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began;
2επ ελπιδι ζωησ αιωνιου ην επηγγειλατο ο αψευδησ θεοσ προ χρονων αιωνιων
3but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,
3εφανερωσεν δε καιροισ ιδιοισ τον λογον αυτου εν κηρυγματι ο επιστευθην εγω κατ επιταγην του σωτηροσ ημων θεου
4to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
4τιτω γνησιω τεκνω κατα κοινην πιστιν χαρισ ελεοσ ειρηνη απο θεου πατροσ και κυριου ιησου χριστου του σωτηροσ ημων
5I 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—
5τουτου χαριν κατελιπον σε εν κρητη ινα τα λειποντα επιδιορθωση και καταστησησ κατα πολιν πρεσβυτερουσ ωσ εγω σοι διεταξαμην
6if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
6ει τισ εστιν ανεγκλητοσ μιασ γυναικοσ ανηρ τεκνα εχων πιστα μη εν κατηγορια ασωτιασ η ανυποτακτα
7For 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;
7δει γαρ τον επισκοπον ανεγκλητον ειναι ωσ θεου οικονομον μη αυθαδη μη οργιλον μη παροινον μη πληκτην μη αισχροκερδη
8but given to hospitality, a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled,
8αλλα φιλοξενον φιλαγαθον σωφρονα δικαιον οσιον εγκρατη
9holding 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.
9αντεχομενον του κατα την διδαχην πιστου λογου ινα δυνατοσ η και παρακαλειν εν τη διδασκαλια τη υγιαινουση και τουσ αντιλεγοντασ ελεγχειν
10For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
10εισιν γαρ πολλοι και ανυποτακτοι ματαιολογοι και φρεναπαται μαλιστα οι εκ περιτομησ
11whose mouths must be stopped: men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain’s sake.
11ουσ δει επιστομιζειν οιτινεσ ολουσ οικουσ ανατρεπουσιν διδασκοντεσ α μη δει αισχρου κερδουσ χαριν
12One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons.”
12ειπεν τισ εξ αυτων ιδιοσ αυτων προφητησ κρητεσ αει ψευσται κακα θηρια γαστερεσ αργαι
13This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
13η μαρτυρια αυτη εστιν αληθησ δι ην αιτιαν ελεγχε αυτουσ αποτομωσ ινα υγιαινωσιν εν τη πιστει
14not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
14μη προσεχοντεσ ιουδαικοισ μυθοισ και εντολαισ ανθρωπων αποστρεφομενων την αληθειαν
15To 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.
15παντα μεν καθαρα τοισ καθαροισ τοισ δε μεμιασμενοισ και απιστοισ ουδεν καθαρον αλλα μεμιανται αυτων και ο νουσ και η συνειδησισ
16They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
16θεον ομολογουσιν ειδεναι τοισ δε εργοισ αρνουνται βδελυκτοι οντεσ και απειθεισ και προσ παν εργον αγαθον αδοκιμοι
