Titus 1:7-9
Good News Translation
7 For since a church leader is in charge of God's work, he should be without fault. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered, or a drunkard or violent or greedy for money. 8 He must be hospitable and love what is good. He must be self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. 9 He must hold firmly to the message which can be trusted and which agrees with the doctrine. In this way he will be able to encourage others with the true teaching and also to show the error of those who are opposed to it.

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.
