| 5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you would set in order what remains and appoint elders in every city as I directed you, | 5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: | 5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that were wanting, and appoint elders in every city, as I gave thee charge; | 5 For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and shouldest ordain priests in every city, as I also appointed thee: | 5 For this cause left I thee in Crete, that the things lacking thou mayest arrange, and mayest set down in every city elders, as I did appoint to thee; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 namely, if any man is above reproach, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of dissipation or rebellion. | 6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly. | 6 if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children that believe, who are not accused of riot or unruly. | 6 If any be without crime, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not accused of riot, or unruly. | 6 if any one is blameless, of one wife a husband, having children stedfast, not under accusation of riotous living or insubordinate -- | 7 For the overseer must be above reproach as God's steward, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not addicted to wine, not pugnacious, not fond of sordid gain, | 7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre; | 7 For the bishop must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-willed, not soon angry, no brawler, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; | 7 For a bishop must be without crime, as the steward of God: not proud, not subject to anger, not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre: | 7 for it behoveth the overseer to be blameless, as God's steward, not self-pleased, nor irascible, not given to wine, not a striker, not given to filthy lucre; | 8 but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, just, devout, self-controlled, | 8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate; | 8 but given to hospitality, as lover of good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled; | 8 But given to hospitality, gentle, sober, just, holy, continent: | 8 but a lover of strangers, a lover of good men, sober-minded, righteous, kind, self-controlled, | 9 holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict. | 9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers. | 9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict the gainsayers. | 9 Embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to convince the gainsayers. | 9 holding -- according to the teaching -- to the stedfast word, that he may be able also to exhort in the sound teaching, and the gainsayers to convict; | 10 For there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, | 10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: | 10 For there are many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision, | 10 For there are also many disobedient, vain talkers, and seducers: especially they who are of the circumcision: | 10 for there are many both insubordinate, vain-talkers, and mind-deceivers -- especially they of the circumcision -- | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 who must be silenced because they are upsetting whole families, teaching things they should not teach for the sake of sordid gain. | 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. | 11 whose mouths must be stopped; men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. | 11 Who must be reproved, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. | 11 whose mouth it behoveth to stop, who whole households do overturn, teaching what things it behoveth not, for filthy lucre's sake. | 12 One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons." | 12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. | 12 One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, idle gluttons. | 12 One of them a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slothful bellies. | 12 A certain one of them, a prophet of their own, said -- 'Cretans! always liars, evil beasts, lazy bellies!' | 13 This testimony is true. For this reason reprove them severely so that they may be sound in the faith, | 13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; | 13 This testimony is true. For which cause reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, | 13 This testimony is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith; | 13 this testimony is true; for which cause convict them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, | 14 not paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of men who turn away from the truth. | 14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. | 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men who turn away from the truth. | 14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men, who turn themselves away from the truth. | 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and commands of men, turning themselves away from the truth; | 15 To 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. | 15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. | 15 To the pure all things are pure: but to them that are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. | 15 All things are clean to the clean: but to them that are defiled, and to unbelievers, nothing is clean: but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. | 15 all things, indeed, are pure to the pure, and to the defiled and unstedfast is nothing pure, but of them defiled are even the mind and the conscience; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 They profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny Him, being detestable and disobedient and worthless for any good deed. | 16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. | 16 They profess that they know God; but by their works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. | 16 They profess that they know God: but in their works they deny him; being abominable, and incredulous, and to every good work reprobate. | 16 God they profess to know, and in the works they deny Him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work disapproved. |
