Titus 1
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus (the) Messiah, according to the faith of God's chosen ones, and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
Павел, раб Божий, Апостол же Иисус Христов, по вере избранных Божиих и разуму истины, яже по благочестию,
2 in hope of everlasting life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began; (aiōnios g166)
о уповании жизни вечныя, юже обетова неложный Бог прежде лет вечных, (aiōnios g166)
3 but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;
яви же во времена своя слово Свое проповеданием, еже мне поручено бысть по повелению Спасителя нашего Бога:
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Messiah Jesus our Savior.
Титу, присному чаду по общей вере: благодать, милость, мир от Бога Отца и Господа Иисуса Христа Спаса нашего.
5 I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you;
Сего ради оставих тя в Крите, да недокончанная исправиши и устроиши по всем градом пресвитеры, якоже тебе аз повелех:
6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
аще кто есть непорочен, единыя жены муж, чада имый верна, не во укорении блуда, или непокорива.
7 For the overseer must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-pleasing, not easily angered, not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for dishonest gain;
Подобает бо епископу без порока быти, якоже Божию строителю: не себе угождающу, (не дерзу, не напрасливу, ) не гневливу, не пиянице, не биице, не скверностяжательну,
8 but given to hospitality, as a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined;
но страннолюбиву, благолюбцу, целомудренну, праведну, преподобну, воздержателну,
9 holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.
держащемуся вернаго словесе по учению, да силен будет и утешати во здравем учении, и противящыяся обличати.
10 For there are many rebellious people, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
Суть бо мнози непокориви, суесловцы и умом прельщени, наипаче же сущии от обрезания,
11 whose mouths must be silenced; who are upsetting whole families, teaching things which they should not, for the sake of dishonest gain.
ихже подобает уста заграждати: иже вся домы развращают, учаще яже не подобает, сквернаго ради прибытка.
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons."
Рече же некто от них, свой им пророк: Критяне присно лживи, злии зверие, утробы праздныя.
13 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
Свидетельство сие истинно есть. Еяже ради вины обличай их нещадно, да здрави будут в вере,
14 not paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of people who reject the truth.
не внимающе Иудейским баснем, ни заповедем человек отвращающихся от истины.
15 To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.
Вся убо чиста чистым: оскверненым же и неверным ничтоже чисто, но осквернися их и ум и совесть.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their works they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
Бога исповедуют ведети, а делы отмещутся Его, мерзцы суще и непокориви и на всякое дело благое неискусни.
