< Titus 2 >
1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
Bvt speake thou the thinges which become wholesome doctrine,
2 that older men should be sober-minded, worthy of respect, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in patience:
That the elder men be watchful, graue, teperate, sounde in the faith, in loue, and in patience:
3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;
The elder women likewise, that they be in such behauiour as becommeth holinesse, not false accusers, not subiect to much wine, but teachers of honest things,
4 that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
That they may instruct the yong women to be sober minded, that they loue their husbands, that they loue their children,
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.
That they be temperate, chaste, keeping at home, good and subiect vnto their husbands, that the word of God be not euill spoken of.
6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be self-controlled;
Exhort yong men likewise, that they bee sober minded.
7 in all things showing yourself an example of good works. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness,
In all things shewe thy selfe an ensample of good woorkes with vncorrupt doctrine, with grauitie, integritie,
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.
And with the wholesome woorde, which can not be condemned, that hee which withstandeth, may be ashamed, hauing nothing concerning you to speake euill of.
9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing in all things; not contradicting;
Let seruants be subiect to their masters, and please them in al things, not answering again,
10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
Neither pickers, but that they shew al good faithfulnesse, that they may adorne the doctrine of God our Sauiour in all things.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people,
For that grace of God, that bringeth saluation vnto all men, hath appeared,
12 instructing us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age; (aiōn )
And teacheth vs that we should denie vngodlinesse and worldly lusts, and that we should liue soberly and righteously, and godly in this present world, (aiōn )
13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Yeshua the Messiah;
Looking for that blessed hope, and appearing of that glorie of that mightie God, and of our Sauiour Iesus Christ,
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.
Who gaue him selfe for vs, that hee might redeeme vs from all iniquitie, and purge vs to bee a peculiar people vnto himselfe, zealous of good woorkes.
15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.
These things speake, and exhort, and conuince with all authoritie. See that no man despise thee.
