Titus 1:5-9
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Titus in Crete
5 I left you behind in Crete for this reason, so that you should put in order what remained to be done and should appoint elders in every town, as I directed you:(A) 6 someone who is blameless, married only once,[a] whose children are believers, not accused of debauchery and not rebellious.(B) 7 For a bishop,[b] as God’s steward, must be blameless; he must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or addicted to wine or violent or greedy for gain,(C) 8 but he must be hospitable,[c] a lover of goodness, self-controlled, upright, devout, and restrained, 9 holding tightly to the trustworthy word of the teaching, so that he may be able both to exhort with sound instruction and to refute those who contradict it.
