Titus 3:3-5

New American Standard Bible 1995

^3 (A)For we also once were foolish ourselves, ^(B)disobedient, ^(C)deceived, ^(D)enslaved to ^(E)various lusts and pleasures, spending our life in ^(F)malice and ^(G)envy, hateful, hating one another. ⁴ But when the ^(H)kindness of ^(I)God our Savior and His love for mankind ^(J)appeared, ^5 (K)He saved us, ^(L)not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but ^(M)according to His mercy, by the ^(N)washing of regeneration and ^(O)renewing by the Holy Spirit,
