Titus 1

DOUAI-RHEIMS	BIBLIA
1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the elect of God and the acknowledging of the truth, which is according to godliness:	1 Pablo, siervo de Dios, apóstol de Jesucristo para llevar a los escogidos de Dios a la fe y al pleno conocimiento de la verdad que es conforme a la piedad,
2 Unto the hope of life everlasting, which God, who lieth not, hath promised before the times of the world:	2 con la esperanza de vida eterna, prometida desde toda la eternidad por Dios que no miente,
3 But hath in due times manifested his word in preaching, which is committed to me according to the commandment of God our Savior:	3 y que en el tiempo oportuno ha manifestado su Palabra por la predicación a mí encomendada según el mandato de Dios nuestro Salvador,
4 To Titus my beloved son, according to the common faith, grace and peace from God the Father, and from Christ Jesus our Savior.	4 a Tito, verdadero hijo según la fe común. Gracia y paz de parte de Dios Padre y de Cristo Jesús, nuestro Salvador.
5 For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and shouldest ordain priests in every city, as I also appointed thee:	5 El motivo de haberte dejado en Creta, fue para que acabaras de organizar lo que faltaba y establecieras presbíteros en cada ciudad, como yo te ordené.
6 If any be without crime, the husband of one wife, having faithful children, not accused of riot, or unruly.	6 El candidato debe ser irreprochable, casado una sola vez, cuyos hijos sean creyentes, no tachados de libertinaje ni de rebeldía.
7 For a bishop must be without crime, as the steward of God: not proud, not subject to anger, not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre:	7 Porque el epíscopo, como administrador de Dios, debe ser irreprochable; no arrogante, no colérico, no bebedor, no violento, no dado a negocios sucios;
8 But given to hospitality, gentle, sober, just, holy, continent:	8 sino hospitalario, amigo del bien, sensato, justo, piadoso, dueño de sí.
9 Embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to convince the gainsayers.	9 Que esté adherido a la palabra fiel, conforme a la enseñanza, para que sea capaz de exhortar con la sana doctrina y refutar a los que contradicen.
10 For there are also many disobedient, vain talkers, and seducers: especially they who are of the circumcision:	10 Porque hay muchos rebeldes, vanos habladores y embaucadores, sobre todo entre los de la circuncisión,
11 Who must be reproved, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.	11 a quienes es menester tapar la boca; hombres que trastornan familias enteras, enseñando por torpe ganancia lo que no deben.
12 One of them a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slothful bellies.	12 Uno de ellos, profeta suyo, dijo: «Los cretenses son siempre mentirosos, malas bestias, vientres perezosos».
13 This testimony is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;	13 Este testimonio es verdadero. Por tanto repréndeles severamente, a fin de que conserven sana la fe,
14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables and commandments of men, who turn themselves away from the truth.	14 y no den oídos a fábulas judaicas, ni a mandamientos de hombres que se apartan de la verdad.
15 All things are clean to the clean: but to them that are defiled, and to unbelievers, nothing is clean: but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.	15 Para los limpios todo es limpio; mas para los contaminados e incrédulos nada hay limpio, pues su mente y conciencia están contaminadas.
16 They profess that they know God: but in their works they deny him; being abominable, and incredulous, and to every good work reprobate.	16 Profesan conocer a Dios, mas con sus obras le niegan; son abominables y rebeldes e incapaces de toda obra buena.
