Put them in mind to be ^asubject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, ^bto be ready to every good work, ² To ^cspeak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. ³ For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. ⁴ But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, ^{5 d}Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by ^ethe washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; ^{6 f}Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; ⁷ That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. ⁸ 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. ⁹ But ^gavoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. ¹⁰ A man that is an heretick ^hafter the first and second admonition ⁱreject; ¹¹ Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, ^jbeing condemned of himself.

¹² When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or ^kTychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter. ¹³ Bring Zenas the lawyer and ^lApollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them. ¹⁴ And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be ^mnot unfruitful. ¹⁵ All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace be with you all. Amen.
