Titus 1:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]For a Bishop must be unreproveable, as God’s [b]steward, not [c]froward, not angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre,
8 But harberous, one that loveth goodness, [d]wise, righteous, holy, temperate,
9 [e]Holding fast that faithful word according to doctrine, [f]that he also may be able to exhort with wholesome doctrine, and convince them that say against it.
