PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 υπομιμνησκε αυτους αρχαις [και] εξουσιαις υποτασσεσθαι, πειθαρχειν, προς παν εργον αγαθον ετοιμους ειναι,
1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
1 Ὑπομίμνησκε αὐτοὺς ἀρχαῖς [καὶ] ἐξουσίαις ὑποτάσσεσθαι, πειθαρχεῖν, πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἑτοίμους εἶναι,
2 μηδενα βλασφημειν, αμαχους ειναι, επιεικεις, πασαν ενδεικνυμενους πραοτητα προς παντας ανθρωπους.
2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.
2 μηδένα βλασφημεῖν, ἀμάχους εἶναι, ἐπιεικεῖς, πᾶσαν ἐνδεικνυμένους πρᾳότητα πρὸς πάντας ἀνθρώπους.
3 ημεν γαρ ποτε και ημεις ανοητοι, απειθεις, πλανωμενοι, δουλευοντες επιθυμιαις και ηδοναις ποικιλαις, εν κακια και φθονω διαγοντες, στυγητοι, μισουντες αλληλους·
3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
3 Ἦμεν γάρ ποτε καὶ ἡμεῖς ἀνόητοι, ἀπειθεῖς, πλανώμενοι, δουλεύοντες ἐπιθυμίαις καὶ ἡδοναῖς ποικίλαις, ἐν κακίᾳ καὶ φθόνῳ διάγοντες, στυγητοί, μισοῦντες ἀλλήλους·
4 οτε δε η χρηστοτης και η φιλανθρωπια επεφανη του σωτηρος ημων θεου,
4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared,
4 ὅτε δὲ ἡ χρηστότης καὶ ἡ φιλανθρωπία ἐπεφάνη τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν Θεοῦ,
5 ουκ εξ εργων των εν δικαιοσυνη ων εποιησαμεν ημεις, αλλα κατα τον αυτου ελεον εσωσεν ημας δια λουτρου παλιγγενεσιας και ανακαινωσεως πνευματος αγιου,
5 not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
5 οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων τῶν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ ὧν ἐποιήσαμεν ἡμεῖς, ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὸν αὐτοῦ ἔλεον ἔσωσεν ἡμᾶς διὰ λουτροῦ παλιγγενεσίας καὶ ἀνακαινώσεως Πνεύματος Ἁγίου,
6 ου εξεχεεν εφ ημας πλουσιως δια ιησου χριστου του σωτηρος ημων,
6 whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;
6 οὗ ἐξέχεεν ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς πλουσίως διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν,
7 ινα δικαιωθεντες τη εκεινου χαριτι κληρονομοι γενωμεθα κατ ελπιδα ζωης αιωνιου.
7 that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
7 ἵνα δικαιωθέντες τῇ ἐκείνου χάριτι κληρονόμοι γενώμεθα κατ᾽ ἐλπίδα ζωῆς αἰωνίου.
8 πιστος ο λογος· και περι τουτων βουλομαι σε διαβεβαιουσθαι, ινα φροντιζωσιν καλων εργων προιστασθαι οι πεπιστευκοτες τω θεω. ταυτα εστιν τα καλα και ωφελιμα τοις ανθρωποις·
8 This saying is faithful, and concerning these things I desire that you insist confidently, so that those who have believed God may be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men;
8 Πιστὸς ὁ λόγος· καὶ περὶ τούτων βούλομαί σε διαβεβαιοῦσθαι, ἵνα φροντίζωσι καλῶν ἔργων προΐστασθαι οἱ πεπιστευκότες τῷ Θεῷ. ταῦτά ἐστι τὰ καλὰ καὶ ὠφέλιμα τοῖς ἀνθρώποις·
9 μωρας δε ζητησεις και γενεαλογιας και ερεις και μαχας νομικας περιιστασο· εισιν γαρ ανωφελεις και ματαιοι.
9 but shun foolish questionings, genealogies, strife, and disputes about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.
9 μωρὰς δὲ ζητήσεις καὶ γενεαλογίας καὶ ἔρεις καὶ μάχας νομικὰς περιΐστασο· εἰσὶ γὰρ ἀνωφελεῖς καὶ μάταιοι.
10 αιρετικον ανθρωπον μετα μιαν και δευτεραν νουθεσιαν παραιτου,
10 Avoid a factious man after a first and second warning,
10 αἱρετικὸν ἄνθρωπον μετὰ μίαν καὶ δευτέραν νουθεσίαν παραιτοῦ,
11 ειδως οτι εξεστραπται ο τοιουτος και αμαρτανει ων αυτοκατακριτος.
11 knowing that such a one is perverted and sinful, being self-condemned.
11 εἰδὼς ὅτι ἐξέστραπται ὁ τοιοῦτος καὶ ἁμαρτάνει ὢν αὐτοκατάκριτος.
12 οταν πεμψω αρτεμαν προς σε η τυχικον, σπουδασον ελθειν προς με εις νικοπολιν· εκει γαρ κεκρικα παραχειμασαι.
12 When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me to Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.
12 Ὅταν πέμψω Ἀρτεμᾶν πρός σε ἢ Τυχικόν, σπούδασον ἐλθεῖν πρός με εἰς Νικόπολιν· ἐκεῖ γὰρ κέκρικα παραχειμάσαι.
13 ζηναν τον νομικον και απολλω σπουδαιως προπεμψον, ινα μηδεν αυτοις λειπη.
13 Send Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey speedily, that nothing may be lacking for them.
13 Ζηνᾶν τὸν νομικὸν καὶ Ἀπολλὼ σπουδαίως πρόπεμψον, ἵνα μηδὲν αὐτοῖς λείπῃ.
14 μανθανετωσαν δε και οι ημετεροι καλων εργων προιστασθαι εις τας αναγκαιας χρειας, ινα μη ωσιν ακαρποι.
14 Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet necessary needs, that they may not be unfruitful.
14 μανθανέτωσαν δὲ καὶ οἱ ἡμέτεροι καλῶν ἔργων προΐστασθαι εἰς τὰς ἀναγκαίας χρείας, ἵνα μὴ ὦσιν ἄκαρποι.
15 ασπαζονται σε οι μετ εμου παντες. ασπασαι τους φιλουντας ημας εν πιστει. η χαρις μετα παντων υμων· αμην.
15 All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
15 Ἀσπάζονταί σε οἱ μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ πάντες. ἄσπασαι τοὺς φιλοῦντας ἡμᾶς ἐν πίστει. Ἡ χάρις μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν· ἀμήν.

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).
Having spoken of the love of God to man, of His ineffable regard for us, of what we were and what He has done for us, he has added, "These things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works"; that is, Discourse of these things, and from a …

Ye never grudged any act of kindness, being "ready to every good work." Adorned by a thoroughly virtuous and religious life, ye did all things in the fear of God.
But as many as separate from the Church, and give heed to such old wives' fables as these, are truly self-condemned; and these men Paul commands us, "after a first and second admonition, to avoid." And John, the disciple of the Lord, has intensified their condemnation, when he desires us not even to address to them the salutation of "good-speed;" …
… "Now I know in part, but then shall I know, even as also I am known; and now through a glass in a riddle, but then face to face." For the same apostle also says that we have been saved by the washing of regeneration, and yet declares in another place, "We are saved by hope: but hope that is …

Therefore Paul also said to Timothy, "Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words;" and again in another place, "From such turn away," and, "A man that is an heretic, after the first and second admonition, reject." It is not, you see, that those truths furnish them with armor, but they become fools in this …
