Titus 2
1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
Du derimod, tal, hvad der sømmer sig for den sunde Lære:
2 that older men should be sober-minded, worthy of respect, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:
at gamle Mænd skulle være ædruelige, ærbare, sindige, sunde i Troen, i Kærligheden, i Udholdenheden;
3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;
at gamle Kvinder ligeledes skulle skikke sig, som det sømmer sig hellige, ikke bagtale, ikke være forfaldne til megen Vin, men være Lærere i, hvad godt er,
4 that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
for at de må få de unge Kvinder til at besinde sig på at elske deres Mænd og at elske deres Børn,
5 to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and being subject to their own husbands, so that God's word may not be discredited.
at være sindige, kyske, huslige, gode, deres egne Mænd undergivne, for at Guds Ord ikke skal bespottes.
6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be self-controlled;
Forman ligeledes de unge Mænd til at være sindige,
7 in all things showing yourself an example of good works. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness,
idet du i alle Måder viser dig selv som et Forbillede på gode Gerninger og i Læren viser Ufordærvethed, Ærbarhed,
8 and a sound message that cannot be condemned; that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.
sund, ulastelig Tale, for at Modstanderen må blive til Skamme, når han intet ondt har at sige om os.
9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing in all things; not contradicting;
Forman Trælle til at underordne sig under deres egne Herrer, at være dem til Behag i alle Ting, ikke sige imod,
10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
ikke besvige, men vise al god Troskab, for at de i alle Måder kunne være en Pryd for Guds, vor Frelsers Lære.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people,
Thi Guds Nåde er bleven åbenbaret til Frelse for alle Mennesker
12 instructing us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; (aiōn g165)
og opdrager os til at forsage Ugudeligheden og de verdslige Begæringer og leve sindigt og retfærdigt og gudfrygtigt i den nærværende Verden; (aiōn g165)
13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Yeshua the Messiah;
forventende det salige Håb og den store Guds og vor Frelsers Jesu Kristi Herligheds Åbenbarelse,
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.
han, som gav sig selv for os, for at han måtte forløse os fra al Lovløshed og rense sig selv et Ejendomsfolk, nidkært til gode Gerninger.
15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.
Tal dette, og forman og irettesæt med al Myndighed; lad ingen ringeagte dig!
