PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Escribo yo, Pablo, esclavo de Dios y mensajero a quien Jesucristo llamó y envió a llevar la fe a los escogidos de Dios y a instruirlos en la verdad que enseña nuestra religión.
1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s chosen ones and the knowledge of the truth which is according to godliness,
1 Παῦλος, δοῦλος Θεοῦ, ἀπόστολος δὲ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ κατὰ πίστιν ἐκλεκτῶν Θεοῦ καὶ ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας τῆς κατ᾽ εὐσέβειαν
2 Esperamos la vida eterna que Dios, que no puede mentir, prometió desde antes de la creación del mundo;
2 in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began;
2 ἐπ᾽ ἐλπίδι ζωῆς αἰωνίου, ἣν ἐπηγγείλατο ὁ ἀψευδὴς Θεὸς πρὸ χρόνων αἰωνίων,
3 y ahora, a su debido tiempo, ha cumplido esta promesa por medio de las buenas noticias que, por mandato de Dios, nuestro Salvador, me han sido encomendadas proclamar.
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,
3 ἐφανέρωσε δὲ καιροῖς ἰδίοις τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ ἐν κηρύγματι ὃ ἐπιστεύθην ἐγὼ κατ᾽ ἐπιταγὴν τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν Θεοῦ,
4 A Tito, verdadero hijo mío en la fe que compartimos: Que Dios el Padre y Cristo Jesús nuestro Salvador te den su amor y paz.
4 to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
4 Τίτῳ γνησίῳ τέκνῳ κατὰ κοινὴν πίστιν· χάρις, ἔλεος, εἰρήνη ἀπὸ Θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν.
5 Te dejé en la isla de Creta para que pusieras en orden lo que quedó pendiente y te pedí que nombraras líderes en las iglesias de cada pueblo, de acuerdo con las instrucciones que te di.
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—
5 Τούτου χάριν κατέλιπόν σε ἐν Κρήτῃ, ἵνα τὰ λείποντα ἐπιδιορθώσῃ, καὶ καταστήσῃς κατὰ πόλιν πρεσβυτέρους, ὡς ἐγώ σοι διεταξάμην,
6 El líder que escojas debe ser irreprochable y debe tener sólo una esposa; sus hijos deben ser creyentes y no deben tener fama de disolutos o desobedientes.
6 if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior.
6 εἴ τίς ἐστιν ἀνέγκλητος, μιᾶς γυναικὸς ἀνήρ, τέκνα ἔχων πιστά, μὴ ἐν κατηγορίᾳ ἀσωτίας ἢ ἀνυπότακτα.
7 El líder es uno que supervisa la obra de Dios, y por eso debe ser irreprensible; no debe ser arrogante ni colérico, no debe ser dado a la bebida ni a las riñas, ni debe ganar dinero de manera deshonesta;
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;
7 δεῖ γὰρ τὸν ἐπίσκοπον ἀνέγκλητον εἶναι ὡς Θεοῦ οἰκονόμον, μὴ αὐθάδη, μὴ ὀργίλον, μὴ πάροινον, μὴ πλήκτην, μὴ αἰσχροκερδῆ,
8 debe ser hospitalario, amigo del bien, sensato, justo, santo y disciplinado.
8 but given to hospitality, a lover of good, sober minded, fair, holy, self-controlled,
8 ἀλλὰ φιλόξενον, φιλάγαθον, σώφρονα, δίκαιον, ὅσιον, ἐγκρατῆ,
9 Su fe en las verdades que hemos enseñado debe ser firme, para que pueda enseñarlas y convencer a los que la contradicen,
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.
9 ἀντεχόμενον τοῦ κατὰ τὴν διδαχὴν πιστοῦ λόγου, ἵνα δυνατὸς ᾖ καὶ παρακαλεῖν ἐν τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ καὶ τοὺς ἀντιλέγοντας ἐλέγχειν.
10 porque hay muchos que son rebeldes, especialmente entre los que dicen que uno debe circuncidarse. Estos son también habladores y engañadores.
10 For there are also many unruly men, vain talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,
10 Εἰσὶ γὰρ πολλοὶ [καὶ] ἀνυπότακτοι, ματαιολόγοι καὶ φρεναπάται, μάλιστα οἱ ἐκ περιτομῆς,
11 Es preciso taparles la boca, pues en su afán por ganar dinero enseñando lo que no deben, ya han apartado de la verdad a varias familias.
11 whose mouths must be stopped: men who overthrow whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for dishonest gain’s sake.
11 οὓς δεῖ ἐπιστομίζειν, οἵτινες ὅλους οἴκους ἀνατρέπουσι διδάσκοντες ἃ μὴ δεῖ αἰσχροῦ κέρδους χάριν.
12 Uno de sus propios profetas dijo lo siguiente: «Los cretenses son siempre mentirosos, malas bestias, glotones y perezosos».
12 One of them, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, and idle gluttons.”
12 εἶπέ τις ἐξ αὐτῶν ἴδιος αὐτῶν προφήτης· Κρῆτες ἀεὶ ψεῦσται, κακὰ θηρία, γαστέρες ἀργαί.
13 Y dijo la verdad. Por eso, repréndelos con severidad, para que se robustezcan en la fe
13 This testimony is true. For this cause, reprove them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
13 ἡ μαρτυρία αὕτη ἐστὶν ἀληθής. δι᾽ ἣν αἰτίαν ἔλεγχε αὐτοὺς ἀποτόμως, ἵνα ὑγιαίνωσιν ἐν τῇ πίστει,
14 y no hagan caso a las fábulas judaicas ni a mandamientos de individuos que se han alejado de la verdad.
14 not paying attention to Jewish fables and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.
14 μὴ προσέχοντες Ἰουδαϊκοῖς μύθοις καὶ ἐντολαῖς ἀνθρώπων ἀποστρεφομένων τὴν ἀλήθειαν.
15 El que es puro de verdad, todo lo ve puro; pero los que tienen el corazón podrido y lleno de incredulidad lo ven todo malo, porque su mente y su conciencia corrompidas desfiguran lo que ven.
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.
15 πάντα [μὲν] καθαρὰ τοῖς καθαροῖς· τοῖς δὲ μεμιαμμένοις καὶ ἀπίστοις οὐδὲν καθαρόν, ἀλλὰ μεμίανται αὐτῶν καὶ ὁ νοῦς καὶ ἡ συνείδησις.
16 Dicen que conocen a Dios, pero en la práctica demuestran no conocerlo. Son odiosos, desobedientes e incapaces de hacer lo bueno.
16 They profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him, being abominable, disobedient, and unfit for any good work.
16 Θεὸν ὁμολογοῦσιν εἰδέναι, τοῖς δὲ ἔργοις ἀρνοῦνται, βδελυκτοὶ ὄντες καὶ ἀπειθεῖς καὶ πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἀδόκιμοι.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Titus was an approved one of the companions of Paul; otherwise, he would not have committed to him the charge of that whole island, nor would he have commanded him to supply what was deficient, as he says, "That thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting." (Ver.

Let them perish from Thy presence, O God, as "vain talkers and deceivers" of the soul do perish, who, observing that there were two wills in deliberating, affirm that there are two kinds of minds in us,--one good, the other evil.

Thou hast taught me, good Father, that "unto the pure all things are pure;" but "it is evil for that man who eateth with offence;" "and that every creature of Thine is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with, thanksgiving;" and that "meat commendeth us not to God;" and that no man should "judge us in …

For he says, "In hope of eternal life, which God that cannot lie promised before the eternal times, but hath in due times manifested His word." You see he says that in the past there have been eternal times, which, however, were not co-eternal with God.
