Titus 2:15-3:7
English Standard Version
15 Declare these things; exhort and (A)rebuke with all authority. (B)Let no one disregard you.
Be Ready for Every Good Work
3 Remind them (C)to be submissive to rulers and authorities, (D)to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, 2 (E)to speak evil of no one, (F)to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and (G)to show perfect courtesy toward all people. 3 For (H)we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. 4 But when (I)the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, (J)not because of works done by us in righteousness, but (K)according to his own mercy, by (L)the washing of regeneration and (M)renewal of the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he (N)poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that (O)being justified by his grace we might become (P)heirs (Q)according to the hope of eternal life.
