Titus 1.4

2. in hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before times eternal; 3. but in his own seasons manifested his word in the message, wherewith I was intrusted according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

4. to Titus, my true child after a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.

5. For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that were wanting, and appoint elders in every city, as I gave thee charge; 6. if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children that believe, who are not accused of riot or unruly. (Titus 1:2-6, ASV)

2. in hope of eternal life, which God, who can’t lie, promised before time began; 3. but in his own time revealed his word in the message with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior;

4. to Titus, my true child according to a common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.

5. I left you in Crete for this reason, that you would set in order the things that were lacking, and appoint elders in every city, as I directed you; 6. if anyone is blameless, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, who are not accused of loose or unruly behavior. (Titus 1:2-6, WEB)

2. In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; ^{In: or, For} 3. But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

4. To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.

5. For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: ^{wanting: or, left undone} 6. If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly. (Titus 1:2-6, KJV)

2. upon hope of life age-during, which God, who doth not lie, did promise before times of ages, 3. (and He manifested in proper times His word,) in preaching, which I was entrusted with, according to a charge of God our Saviour,

4. to Titus, true child according to a common faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour!

5. For this cause left I thee in Crete, that the things lacking thou mayest arrange, and mayest set down in every city elders, as I did appoint to thee; 6. if any one is blameless, of one wife a husband, having children stedfast, not under accusation of riotous living or insubordinate (Titus 1:2-6, YLT)
