I was so uneasy in my mind for not finding Titus my brother, that taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.

nevertheless, God who comforteth those that are cast down, gave me comfort by the arrival of Titus: not barely by his presence,

so that your comfort was no small satisfaction to me: yea, and I was the more exceedingly pleased for that cheerful tranquillity of mind which Titus received from the behaviour of you all.

so that I am not ashamed of the commendations I have formerly given you to him; but as I have always preached the truth to you, so in my commendation to Titus, I have said nothing but truth of you.

I therefore desired Titus, as he had begun, to finish this contribution among you.

But thanks be to God, who disposed Titus to be so industrious for you.

now as to Titus, he is my collegue, and assists me in your affairs: as to our brethren, they are the deputies of the churches, and the glory of the christian profession.

I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother: did Titus make a gain of you? didn't we follow the same principles, and take the same measures?

Fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem, with Barnabas, and took Titus also with me:

however, Titus who was then with me, being a Greek, was not compelled to be circumcised:

for Damas, out of love to this world has abandon'd me, and is gone to Thessalonica: Crescens, to Galatia: and Titus, to Dalmatia.

TO Titus my own convert to the common faith: grace and peace from God the father, and the Lord Jesus Christ our saviour.
