Titus 3:4

Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,

to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men.

For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior;

that being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
