Titus Chapter 2 Back Next{2:1} But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
{2:2} that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:
{2:3} and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;
{2:4} that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
{2:5} to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God's word may not be blasphemed.
{2:6} Likewise, exhort the younger men to be sober minded;
{2:7} in all things showing yourself an example of good works; in your teaching showing integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,
{2:8} and soundness of speech that can't be condemned; that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.
{2:9} Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing in all things; not contradicting;
{2:10} not stealing, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
{2:11} For the
grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
{2:12} instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly
lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world;
{2:13} looking for the
blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior,
Jesus Christ;
{2:14} who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.
{2:15} Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no man despise you.
