Commendation of Titus

19 And not only that, but he has been e appointed by the churches to travel with us as we carry out this act of f grace that is being ministered by us, g for the glory of the Lord himself and to show our good will. 20 We take this course so that no one should blame us about this generous gift that is being administered by us, 21 for h we aim at what is honorable i not only in the Lord's sight but also in the sight of man.
