Titus 1:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ But He has revealed His Word in due time through preaching, which is committed to me according to the Commandment of God our Savior,

⁴ To Titus, my natural son according to the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.

⁵ For this reason I left you in Crete, so that you would continue to organize the things which remain, and would ordain elders in every city, as I directed you
