Verse
BSB
Berean Standard Bible
KJV
King James Version
Remind
the
believers
to submit
to rulers
and authorities
, to be obedient
and
ready for
every good work,
Put
them
in
mind
to be
subject
to principalities
and powers
, to obey
magistrates,
to
be ready to
every good work,
to malign
no one
, and
to be peaceable
and
gentle, showing
full
consideration
to
everyone
.
To speak
evil
of
no man
, to be no
brawlers,
but
gentle, shewing
all
meekness
unto
all
men
.
For at
one
time
we too
were foolish, disobedient, misled
, and
enslaved
to
all
sorts
of
desires
and pleasures —
living in malice and envy, being
hated
and hating one another.
For we ourselves
also
were sometimes
foolish, disobedient, deceived
, serving
divers
lusts
and pleasures ,
living in malice and envy, hateful,
and hating one another.
But when
the kindness of God our Savior
and
His
love
for
mankind
appeared,
But after
that
the kindness and
love
of God our Saviour
toward
man
appeared,
He
saved
us,
not by the
righteous
deeds
we had
done, but according to His mercy, through
the washing of new
birth
and renewal
by
the Holy Spirit.
Not by works
of
righteousness
which
we have
done, but according to his mercy he
saved
us
, by
the washing of regeneration,
and renewing
of
the Holy Ghost;
This
is
the
Spirit
He poured
out
on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
Which
he shed
on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
so
that ,
having
been
justified by His grace, we would
become
heirs with
the hope of eternal life.
That being
justified by his grace, we should
be
made
heirs according
to
the hope of eternal life.
This saying
is trustworthy.
And I
want
you
to
emphasize
these things, so
that those
who
have believed God will
take
care
to
devote
themselves
to good deeds
. These things are excellent
and profitable for
the
people
.
This is a
faithful
saying,
and these things I
will
that
thou
affirm
constantly
, that they
which
have believed in
God might
be
careful
to maintain
good works
. These things are good
and profitable unto
men
.
But avoid foolish controversies
, genealogies, arguments
, and quarrels
about the law ,
because
these
things
are pointless
and worthless
.
But avoid foolish questions
, and
genealogies, and
contentions
, and strivings
about the law ;
for
they
are unprofitable
and vain
.
Reject
a divisive
man after a
first and second admonition ,
A man that
is
an
heretick
after the
first and second admonition reject;
knowing that such a
man
is corrupt
and sinful;
he
is
self-
condemned.
Knowing that he
that
is
such is subverted,
and sinneth,
being
condemned of
himself
.
As
soon
as
I send Artemas or Tychicus to
you
, make
every
effort
to come to
me at
Nicopolis ,
because
I have decided
to winter there
.
When
I shall
send Artemas unto
thee,
or Tychicus, be
diligent
to come unto
me to
Nicopolis :
for
I have determined
there
to winter.
Do
your
best
to
equip
Zenas the lawyer and Apollos, so
that they
will
have
everything
they
need
.
Bring
Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on
their
journey
diligently
, that nothing
be
wanting
unto
them
.
And our
people
must
also learn to devote
themselves
to
good works in
order
to
meet
the
pressing
needs
of
others
, so
that they will
not
be unfruitful.
And let
our's
also learn to maintain
good works for
necessary
uses
, that they be not
unfruitful.
All who
are with me send
you
greetings
. Greet those
who
love us in the faith. Grace be with all
of
you.
All that
are with me salute
thee
. Greet them
that
love us in the faith. Grace be with you all
. Amen.
