提多书 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
问候
1 我保罗做上帝的奴仆和耶稣基督的使徒，是为了使上帝拣选的人有信心、明白真理，从而过敬虔的生活， 2 有永生的盼望。这永生是从不说谎的上帝在亘古以前应许的。 3 祂在所定的时候，借着人的传扬将自己的道显明出来。我奉我们救主上帝的命令传扬这道。
4 提多啊，我写信给你，就我们共同的信仰来说，你是我真正的儿子。
愿父上帝和我们的救主基督耶稣赐给你恩典和平安！
长老的资格
5 当初，我把你留在克里特岛，是要你完成未办完的事工，并照我的指示在各城选立长老。 6 做长老的必须无可指责，只有一位妻子，儿女都信主、没有放荡不羁的行为。 7 身为上帝的管家，做监督的必须无可指责，不傲慢，不暴躁，不酗酒，不好斗，不贪财。 8 他必须好客、乐善、自制、正直、圣洁、自律， 9 持守所领受的真道，以便能够以纯正的教导劝勉人，驳倒那些反对的人。
10 因为有许多悖逆之人喜欢空谈，善于欺骗，尤其是那些奉行割礼的人。 11 你一定要堵住他们的口，因为他们为了不义之财教不该教的，误导了别人全家。 12 克里特人自己的一位先知说：“克里特人说谎成性，邪恶如兽，好吃懒做。” 13 这话是真的。因此你要严正地斥责他们，使他们有纯正的信仰， 14 不理会犹太人荒诞的传说和那些违背真理之人的诫律。 15 对洁净的人而言，一切都是洁净的；对污秽不信的人而言，什么都不洁净，连他们的思想和良心都是污秽的。 16 他们自称认识上帝，在行为上却否认祂。他们令人可憎，悖逆成性，一无是处。
Titus 1
New King James Version
Greeting
1 Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect and (A)the acknowledgment of the truth (B)which accords with godliness, 2 in hope of eternal life which God, who (C)cannot lie, promised before time began, 3 but has in due time manifested His word through preaching, which was committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior;
4 To (D)Titus, a true son in our common faith:
Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and [a]the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
Qualified Elders
5 For this reason I left you in Crete, that you should (E)set in order the things that are lacking, and appoint elders in every city as I commanded you— 6 if a man is blameless, the husband of one wife, (F)having faithful children not accused of [b]dissipation or insubordination. 7 For a [c]bishop must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, (G)not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, 8 but hospitable, a lover of what is good, sober-minded, just, holy, self-controlled, 9 holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.
The Elders’ Task
10 For there are many insubordinate, both idle (H)talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision, 11 whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole households, teaching things which they ought not, (I)for the sake of dishonest gain. 12 (J)One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.” 13 This testimony is true. (K)Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not giving heed to Jewish fables and (L)commandments of men who turn from the truth. 15 (M)To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled. 16 They profess to (N)know God, but (O)in works they deny Him, being [d]abominable, disobedient, (P)and disqualified for every good work.
