Titus 1:6-9

1:6 An elder must be blameless, ¹³  the husband of one wife, ¹⁴  with faithful children ¹⁵  who cannot be charged with dissipation or rebellion. 1:7 For the overseer ¹⁶  must be blameless as one entrusted with God’s work, ¹⁷  not arrogant, not prone to anger, not a drunkard, not violent, not greedy for gain. 1:8 Instead he must be hospitable, devoted to what is good, sensible, upright, devout, and self-controlled. 1:9 He must hold firmly to the faithful message as it has been taught, ¹⁸  so that he will be able to give exhortation in such healthy teaching ¹⁹  and correct those who speak against it.

Ibrani 13:5-6

13:5 Your conduct must be free from the love of money and you must be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you and I will never abandon you.” ²⁰  13:6 So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper, and ²¹  I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?” ²² 

[90:14]  ¹ sn Morning is used metaphorically for a time of renewed joy after affliction (see Pss 30:5; 46:5; 49:14; 59:16; 143:8).

[90:14]  ² tn After the imperative (see the preceding line) the cohortatives with the prefixed conjunction indicate purpose/result.

[91:16]  ³ tn Heb “length of days.”

[58:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “if you.” See the note on “you must” in v. 9b.

[58:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “If you furnish for the hungry [with] your being, and the appetite of the oppressed you satisfy.”

[58:10]  ⁶ tn Heb “will rise in the darkness.”

[58:10]  ⁷ tn Heb “and your darkness [will be] like noonday.”

[58:11]  ⁸ tn Heb “he will satisfy in parched regions your appetite.”

[58:11]  ⁹ tn Heb “and your bones he will strengthen.”

[5:6]  ¹⁰ sn Those who hunger are people like the poor Jesus has already mentioned. The term has OT roots both in conjunction with the poor (Isa 32:6-7; 58:6-7, 9-10; Ezek 18:7, 16) or by itself (Ps 37:16-19; 107:9).

[4:12]  ¹¹ tn The words “of contentment” are not in the Greek text, but are implied by Paul’s remarks at the end of v. 11.

[4:1]  ¹² tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:12.

[1:6]  ¹³ tn Grk “if anyone is blameless…” as a continuation of v. 5b, beginning to describe the elder’s character.

[1:6]  ¹⁴ tn Or “married only once,” “devoted solely to his wife.” See the note on “wife” in 1 Tim 3:2; also 1 Tim 3:12; 5:9.

[1:6]  ¹⁵ tn Or “believing children.” The phrase could be translated “believing children,” but the parallel with 1 Tim 3:4 (“keeping his children in control”) argues for the sense given in the translation.

[1:7]  ¹⁶ sn The overseer is another term for the same official position of leadership as the “elder.” This is seen in the interchange of the two terms in this passage and in Acts 20:17, 28, as well as in the parallels between these verses and 1 Tim 3:1-7.

[1:7]  ¹⁷ tn Grk “as God’s steward.”

[1:9]  ¹⁸ tn Grk “the faithful message in accordance with the teaching” (referring to apostolic teaching).

[1:9]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “the healthy teaching” (referring to what was just mentioned).

[13:5]  ²⁰ sn A quotation from Deut 31:6, 8.

[13:6]  ²¹ tc Some important mss (א* C* P 0285^vid 33 1175 1739 pc lat) lack καί (kai), but because the omission conforms to the wording of Ps 118:6 (117:6 LXX), it is suspect.

[13:6]  ²² sn A quotation from Ps 118:6.
