Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the elect of God and the acknowledging of the truth, which is according to godliness:
PABLO, siervo de Dios, y apóstol de Jesu-Cristo segun la fé de los escogidos de Dios, y el conocimiento de la verdad que es segun la piedad,
2 Unto the hope of life everlasting, which God, who lieth not, hath promised before the times of the world: (aiōnios g166)
Para la esperanza de la vida eterna, la cual Dios, que no puede mentir, prometió ántes de los tiempos de los siglos, (aiōnios g166)
3 But hath in due times manifested his word in preaching, which is committed to me according to the commandment of God our Saviour:
Y manifestó á sus tiempos su palabra por [la] predicacion, que me es á mí encomendada por mandamiento de nuestro Salvador Dios;
4 To Titus my beloved son, according to the common faith, grace and peace from God the Father, and from Christ Jesus our Saviour.
A Tito, verdadero hijo en la comun fé: Gracia, misericordia, y paz de Dios Padre, y del Señor Jesu-Cristo Salvador nuestro.
5 For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and shouldest ordain priests in every city, as I also appointed thee:
Por esta causa te dejé en Creta, para que corrigieses lo que falta, y pusieses ancianos por las villas, así como yo te mandé:
6 If any be without crime, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not accused of riot, or unruly.
El que fuere sin crimen, marido de una mujer, que tenga hijos fieles, que no estén acusados de disolucion, ó contumaces.
7 For a bishop must be without crime, as the steward of God: not proud, not subject to anger, not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre:
Porque es menester que el obispo sea sin crimen, como dispensador de Dios; no soberbio, no iracundo, no amador del vino, no heridor, no codicioso de torpes ganancias;
8 But given to hospitality, gentle, sober, just, holy, continent:
Sino hospedador, amador de lo bueno, templado, justo, santo, continente;
9 Embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to convince the gainsayers.
Retenedor de la fiel palabra que es conforme á la doctrina; para que tambien pueda exhortar con sana doctrina, y convencer á los que contradijeren.
10 For there are also many disobedient, vain talkers, and seducers: especially they who are of the circumcision:
Porque hay aun muchos contumaces, habladores de vanidades, y engañadores de las almas, mayormente [los] que [son] de la circuncision.
11 Who must be reproved, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.
A los cuales es preciso tapar la boca; que trastornan casas enteras, enseñando lo que no conviene, por torpe ganancia.
12 One of them a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slothful bellies.
Dijo uno de ellos, propio profeta de ellos: Los Cretenses, siempre mentirosos, malas bestias, vientres perezosos.
13 This testimony is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;
Este testimonio es verdadero: por tanto repréndelos duramente, para que sean sanos en la fé;
14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men, who turn themselves away from the truth.
No atendiendo á fabulas judáicas, y á mandamientos de hombres que se apartan de la verdad.
15 All things are clean to the clean: but to them that are defiled, and to unbelievers, nothing is clean: but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Todas las cosas son limpias á los limpios, mas á los contaminados é infieles nada es limpio: ántes su alma y conciencia están contaminadas.
16 They profess that they know God: but in their works they deny him; being abominable, and incredulous, and to every good work reprobate.
Profésanse conocer á Dios, mas con los hechos [lo] niegan; siendo abominables y rebeldes, reprobados para toda buena obra.
