Titus 1:7-9

New International Version

⁷ Since an overseer^(A) manages God’s household,^(B) he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain.^{(C) 8} Rather, he must be hospitable,^(D) one who loves what is good,^(E) who is self-controlled,^(F) upright, holy and disciplined. ⁹ He must hold firmly^(G) to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine^(H) and refute those who oppose it.
