Titus 3:9-15
Contemporary English Version
Titus 3:9-15
Contemporary English Version
9 But don't have anything to do with stupid arguments about ancestors. And stay away from disagreements and quarrels about the Law of Moses. Such arguments are useless and senseless.
10 Warn troublemakers once or twice. Then don't have anything else to do with them. 11 You know their minds are twisted, and their own sins show how guilty they are.
Personal Instructions and Greetings
12 (A) I plan to send Artemas or Tychicus to you. After he arrives, please try your best to meet me at Nicopolis. I have decided to spend the winter there.
13 (B) When Zenas the lawyer and Apollos get ready to leave, help them as much as you can, so they won't have need of anything.
14 Our people should learn to spend their time doing something useful and worthwhile.
15 Greetings to you from everyone here. Greet all of our friends who share in our faith.
I pray that the Lord will be kind to all of you!

New International Version
9 But avoid(A) foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels(B) about the law,(C) because these are unprofitable and useless.(D) 10 Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them.(E) 11 You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful; they are self-condemned.

15 Everyone with me sends you greetings. Greet those who love us in the faith.(J)
Grace be with you all.(K)
