Titus 1:5
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting (note: Or, left undone), and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
The reason I left you in Crete was that you would set in order what was unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you.
