تِيطُس 2

١ 1 أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعَلِّمْ بِمَا يُوَافِقُ التَّعْلِيمَ الصَّحِيحَ:

But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

٢ 2 أَنْ يَكُونَ الشُّيُوخُ ذَوِي رَزَانَةٍ وَوَقَارٍ، مُتَعَقِّلِينَ، صَحِيحِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ وَالصَّبْرِ.

That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

٣ 3 وَكَذَلِكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ الْعَجَائِزُ ذَوَاتِ سِيرَةٍ مُوَافِقَةٍ لِلْقَدَاسَةِ، غَيْرَ نَمَّامَاتٍ وَلا مُدْمِنَاتٍ لِلْخَمْرِ، بَلْ مُعَلِّمَاتٍ لِمَا هُوَ صَالِحٌ،

The aged women likewise, that [they be] in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

٤ 4 لِكَيْ يُدَرِّبْنَ الشَّابَّاتِ عَلَى أَنْ يَكُنَّ مُحِبَّاتٍ لأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ وَلأَوْلادِهِنَّ،

That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

٥ 5 مُتَعَقِّلاتٍ، عَفِيفَاتٍ، مُهْتَمَّاتٍ بِشُؤُونِ بُيُوتِهِنَّ صَالِحَاتٍ، خَاضِعَاتٍ لأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ، حَتَّى لَا يَتَكَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ بِالسُّوءِ عَلَى كَلِمَةِ اللهِ.

[To be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

٦ 6 كَذَلِكَ عِظِ الشُّبَّانَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا مُتَعَقِّلِينَ،

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

٧ 7 جَاعِلاً مِنْ نَفْسِكَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قُدْوَةً لِلأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ، مُظْهِراً فِي تَعْلِيمِكَ النَّقَاوَةَ وَالْوَقَارَ

In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine [shewing] uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

٨ 8 وَالْكَلِمَةَ الصَّحِيحَةَ الَّتِي لَا تُلامُ، لِكَيْ يَخْجَلَ الْمُقَاوِمُ حِينَ لَا يَجِدُ أَمْراً سَيِّئاً يَقُولُهُ فِينَا.

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.

٩ 9 وَعَلِّمِ الْعَبِيدَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا خَاضِعِينَ لِسَادَتِهِمْ، مُرْضِينَ لَهُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ؛ غَيْرَ مُعَانِدِينَ؛

[Exhort] servants to be obedient unto their own masters, [and] to please [them] well in all [things]; not answering again;

١٠ 10 وَلا سَارِقِينَ، بَلْ مُظْهِرِينَ أَمَانَةً كُلِّيَّةً صَالِحَةً، لِكَيْ يُزَيِّنُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ تَعْلِيمَ مُخَلِّصِنَا اللهِ.

Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

١١ 11 فَإِنَّ نِعْمَةَ اللهِ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُ مَعَهَا الْخَلاصَ لِجَمِيعِ النَّاسِ، قَدْ ظَهَرَتْ.

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

١٢ 12 وَهِي تُعَلِّمُنَا أَنْ نَقْطَعَ عَلاقَتَنَا بِالإِبَاحِيَّةِ وَالشَّهَوَاتِ الْعَالَمِيَّةِ، وَأَنْ نَحْيَا فِي الْعَصْرِ الْحَاضِرِ حَيَاةَ التَّعَقُّلِ وَالْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَى، (aiōn g165)

Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; (aiōn g165)

١٣ 13 فِيمَا نَنْتَظِرُ تَحْقِيقَ رَجَائِنَا السَّعِيدِ، ثُمَّ الظُّهُورَ العَلَنِيَّ لِمَجْدِ إِلَهِنَا وَمُخَلِّصِنَا الْعَظِيمِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ،

Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

١٤ 14 الَّذِي بَذَلَ نَفْسَهُ لأَجْلِنَا لِكَيْ يَفْتَدِيَنَا مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمٍ وَيُطَهِّرَنَا لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْباً خَاصّاً يَجْتَهِدُ بِحَمَاسَةٍ فِي الأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ.

Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

١٥ 15 بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ تَكَلَّمْ، وَعِظْ، وَوَبِّخْ بِكُلِّ سُلْطَانٍ، وَلا تَدَعْ أَحَداً يَسْتَخِفُّ بِكَ!

These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
