[1:1] From Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I was chosen and sent to help the faith of God's chosen people and to lead them to the truth taught by our religion,
[1:2] which is based on the hope for eternal life. God, who does not lie, promised us this life before the beginning of time,
[1:3] and at the right time he revealed it in his message. This was entrusted to me, and I proclaim it by order of God our Savior.
[1:4] I write to Titus, my true son in the faith that we have in common. May God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior give you grace and peace.
