Sha'ul's Letter to Titus, Chapter 3 {3:1} Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, {3:2} to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men. {3:3} For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. {3:4} But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared, {3:5} not 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 [1>]Ruach HaKodesh[<1], {3:6} which he poured out on us richly, through Yeshua the Messiah our Savior; {3:7} that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. {3:8} This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you affirm confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men; {3:9} but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. {3:10} Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning; {3:11} knowing that such a one is perverted, and sins, being self-condemned. {3:12} When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there. {3:13} Send Zenas, the lawyer, and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them. {3:14} Let our people also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they may not be unfruitful. {3:15} All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all.
