Paul a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God's elect and for their knowledge of the Truth that goes with a religious life,

serving in hope of the life eternal which God, who never lies, promised ages ago ??3 he gave effect to his word in due time by a proclamation with which I have been entrusted by command of God our Saviour: ??4 to Titus my lawful son in a faith we hold in common; grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.

Tell the older men to be temperate, serious, masters of themselves, sound in faith, in love, and in stedfastness.

they must give good counsel, so that the young women may be trained to love their husbands and children,

and it schools us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions and to live a life of self-mastery, of integrity, and of piety in this present world,

that we might be justified by his grace and become heirs to the hope of life eternal."

All who are with me salute you. Salute those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.
