1 Admonish them to be submissive to note governors and
magistrates, to obey their orders, and to be ready to
every good work;
2 to slander no man, to avoid contention,
to be gentle, shewing all meekness unto all
men.
3 For we also were formerly foolish, disobedient,
going astray, enslaved to various disorderly note appetites
and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and
hating one another.
4 But when the kindness and love
of God our Saviour towards man appeared,
5 not for
works of righteousness which we had done, but according
to his own mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneration,
and renewing of the holy Spirit;
6 which He
hath note plentifully shed upon us, through Jesus Christ
our Saviour:
7 that being justified by his grace, we might
become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
8 This is note a word which ought to believed and observed,
and concerning these things I would have thee stedfastly
affirm, that they who have believed in God be careful
to excel in good works: for these things are good and
profitable to men.
9 But avoid foolish questions, and
genealogies, and strifes and contentions about the law;
for they are unprofitable and vain:
10 reject therefore such
an heretical man, after the first and second admonition;
knowing that such a one is perverted,
11 and sinneth as
being self-condemned.
12 When I shall send Artemas to thee, or Tychicus,
endeavour to come to me to Nicopolis: for there I have
determined to winter.
13 Forward Zenas the lawyer, and
Apollos, on their journey carefully, that nothing may
be wanting to them.
14 And let our brethren-also learn to
excel in good works for necessary exigencies, that they
may not be unfruitful.
15 All that are with me salute thee. Salute them that
love us note in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
