Titus 2
1 2 3
1 But speak thou the things which
become sound doctrine:
2 That the aged men be sober, grave,
temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.
3 The aged women likewise, that they
be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to
much wine, teachers of good things;
4 That they may teach the young
women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 To be discreet, chaste,
keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of
God be not blasphemed.
6 Young men likewise exhort to be
sober minded.
7 In all things shewing thyself a
pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity,
sincerity,
8 Sound speech, that cannot be
condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no
evil thing to say of you.
9 Exhort servants to be
obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in
all things; not answering again;
10 Not purloining, but shewing all
good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all
things.
11 For the grace of God that
bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12 Teaching us that, denying
ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world;
13 Looking for that
blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour
Jesus Christ;
14 Who gave himself for us, that he
might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar
people, zealous of good works.
15 These things speak, and exhort,
and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
