Titus 3:3-8
Christian Standard Bible
3 For we too were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved by various passions(A) and pleasures,(B) living in malice and envy, hateful, detesting one another.
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love for mankind appeared,(C) 5 he saved us(D)—not by works of righteousness that we had done,(E) but according to his mercy(F)—through the washing of regeneration(G) and renewal by the Holy Spirit.(H) 6 He poured out his Spirit on us abundantly(I) through Jesus Christ our Savior 7 so that, having been justified by his grace,(J) we may become heirs with the hope of eternal life.(K) 8 This saying is trustworthy.(L) I want you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed God might be careful to devote themselves to good works. These are good and profitable for everyone.

3 For we also were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, enslaved to various desires and pleasures, spending our lives in wickedness and envy, despicable, hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and love for mankind of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not by deeds of righteousness that we have done, but because of his mercy, through the washing of regeneration and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we may become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
