1
Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness,
2 Para la esperanza de la vida eterna, la cual Dios, que no puede mentir, prometió antes de los tiempos de los siglos,
2
in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began
3 Y manifestó á sus tiempos su palabra por la predicación, que me es á mí encomendada por mandamiento de nuestro Salvador Dios;
3
and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by the command of God our Savior;

5 Por esta causa te dejé en Creta, para que corrigieses lo que falta, y pusieses ancianos por las villas, así como yo te mandé:
5
This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you—
6 El que fuere sin crimen, marido de una mujer, que tenga hijos fieles que no estén acusados de disolución, ó contumaces.
6
if anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination.
7 Porque es menester que el obispo sea sin crimen, como dispensador de Dios; no soberbio, no iracundo, no amador del vino, no heridor, no codicioso de torpes ganancias;
7
For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,
8 Sino hospedador, amador de lo bueno, templado, justo, santo, continente;
8
but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined.
9 Retenedor de la fiel palabra que es conforme á la doctrina: para que también pueda exhortar con sana doctrina, y convencer á los que contradijeren.
9
He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.
10 Porque hay aún muchos contumaces, habladores de vanidades, y engañadores de las almas, mayormente los que son de la circuncisión,
10
For there are many who are insubordinate, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision party.
11 A los cuales es preciso tapar la boca; que trastornan casas enteras; enseñando lo que no conviene, por torpe ganancia.
11
They must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for shameful gain what they ought not to teach.
12 Dijo uno de ellos, propio profeta de ellos: Los Cretenses, siempre mentirosos, malas bestias, vientres perezosos.
12
One of the Cretans, a prophet of their own, said, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons. ”
13 Este testimonio es verdadero: por tanto, repréndelos duramente, para que sean sanos en la fe,
13
This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,
14 No atendiendo á fábulas judaicas, y á mandamientos de hombres que se apartan de la verdad.
14
not devoting themselves to Jewish myths and the commands of people who turn away from the truth.
15 Todas las cosas son limpias á los limpios; mas á los contaminados é infieles nada es limpio: antes su alma y conciencia están contaminadas.
15
To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled.
16 Profésanse conocer á Dios; mas con los hechos lo niegan, siendo abominables y rebeldes, reprobados para toda buena obra.
16
They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.
