[This is] a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men (3:8) But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain (3:9) A man that is an heretic after the first and second admonition reject; (3:10) Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself (3:11) When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter (3:12) Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey diligently, that nothing be wanting unto them (3:13) And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, that they be not unfruitful (3:14) All that are with me salute thee. Greet them that love us in the faith. Grace [be] with you all. Amen
(3:15)
