Titus

我們從前也是無知、悖逆、受迷惑，服事各樣私慾和宴樂，常存惡毒、嫉妒的心，是可恨的，又是彼此相恨。

For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

但到了　神我們救主的恩慈和他向人所有的慈愛顯明的時候，

But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

他便救了我們，並不是因我們自己所行的義，乃是照他的憐憫，藉著重生的洗和聖靈的更新。

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;

好叫我們因他的恩得稱為義，可以憑著永生的盼望成為後嗣。

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

這話是可信的，我也願你把這些事切切囑咐人，使那些已信　神的人留心做正經事業。這都是善且有益於人的。

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.
