Titus 2

1 But speak you the things which become sound doctrine:

yathārthasyopadeśasya vākyāni tvayā kathyantāṁ

2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in love, (agape) in patience.

viśeṣataḥ prācīnalokā yathā prabuddhā dhīrā vinītā viśvāse premni sahiṣṇutāyāñca svasthā bhaveyustadvat

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

prācīnayoṣito'pi yathā dharmmayogyam ācāraṁ kuryyuḥ paranindakā bahumadyapānasya nighnāśca na bhaveyuḥ

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

kintu suśikṣākāriṇyaḥ satya īśvarasya vākyaṁ yat na nindyeta tadarthaṁ yuvatīḥ suśīlatām arthataḥ patisneham apatyasnehaṁ

5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word (logos) of God be not blasphemed.

vinītiṁ śucitvaṁ gṛhiṇītvaṁ saujanyaṁ svāminighnañcādiśeyustathā tvayā kathyatāṁ|

6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

tadvad yūno'pi vinītaye prabodhaya|

7 In all things showing yourself a pattern of good works: in doctrine showing incorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

tvañca sarvvaviṣaye svaṁ satkarmmaṇāṁ dṛṣṭāntaṁ darśaya śikṣāyāñcāvikṛtatvaṁ dhīratāṁ yathārthaṁ

8 Sound speech, (logos) that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

nirddoṣañca vākyaṁ prakāśaya tena vipakṣo yuṣmākam apavādasya kimapi chidraṁ na prāpya trapiṣyate|

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

dāsāśca yat svaprabhūnāṁ nighnāḥ sarvvaviṣaye tuṣṭijanakāśca bhaveyuḥ pratyuttaraṁ na kuryyuḥ

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

kimapi nāpahareyuḥ kintu pūrṇāṁ suviśvastatāṁ prakāśayeyuriti tān ādiśa| yata evamprakāreṇāsmakaṁ trāturīśvarasya śikṣā sarvvaviṣaye tai rbhūṣitavyā|

11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,

yato hetostrāṇājanaka īśvarasyānugrahaḥ sarvvān mānavān pratyuditavān

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

sa cāsmān idaṁ śikṣyati yad vayam adharmmaṁ sāṁsārikābhilāṣāṁścānaṅgīkṛtya vinītatvena nyāyeneśvarabhaktyā cehaloke āyu ryāpayāmaḥ, (aiōn g165)

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

paramasukhasyāśām arthato 'smākaṁ mahata īśvarasya trāṇakarttu ryīśukhrīṣṭasya prabhāvasyodayaṁ pratīkṣāmahe|

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

yataḥ sa yathāsmān sarvvasmād adharmmāt mocayitvā nijādhikārasvarūpaṁ satkarmmasūtsukam ekaṁ prajāvargaṁ pāvayet tadartham asmākaṁ kṛte ātmadānaṁ kṛtavān|

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

etāni bhāṣasva pūrṇasāmarthyena cādiśa prabodhaya ca, ko'pi tvāṁ nāvamanyatāṁ|
