But do thou speak the things which become sound doctrine:
that aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in the faith, in love, in patience:

the aged women likewise in behaviour as becometh saints, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of that which is good;
that they may instruct the young women to be temperate, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be prudent,

chaste, keepers at home, good, submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.
