Titus 2
1 But you, speak what fits with faithful instruction.
Σὺ δὲ λάλει ἃ πρέπει τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ διδασκαλίᾳ.
2 Teach older men to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in perseverance.
Πρεσβύτας νηφαλίους εἶναι, σεμνούς, σώφρονας, ὑγιαίνοντας τῇ πίστει, τῇ ἀγάπῃ, τῇ ὑπομονῇ.
3 Teach older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or being slaves to much wine, but to be teachers of what is good.
Πρεσβύτιδας ὡσαύτως ἐν καταστήματι ἱεροπρεπεῖς, μὴ διαβόλους, (μὴ *NK(o)*) οἴνῳ πολλῷ δεδουλωμένας, καλοδιδασκάλους,
4 In this way they may train the younger women to love their own husbands and children,
ἵνα (σωφρονίζωσιν *NK(o)*) τὰς νέας φιλάνδρους εἶναι, φιλοτέκνους,
5 to be sensible, pure, good housekeepers, and obedient to their own husbands. They should do these things so that God's word may not be insulted.
σώφρονας, ἁγνάς, (οἰκουργοὺς *N(k)O*) ἀγαθάς, ὑποτασσομένας τοῖς ἰδίοις ἀνδράσιν, ἵνα μὴ ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ βλασφημῆται.
6 In the same way, encourage the younger men to use good sense.
Τοὺς νεωτέρους ὡσαύτως παρακάλει σωφρονεῖν,
7 In all ways present yourself as an example of good works. In your teaching, show integrity, dignity,
περὶ πάντα σεαυτὸν παρεχόμενος τύπον καλῶν ἔργων, ἐν τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ (ἀδιαφθορίαν *K*) ἀφθορίαν, σεμνότητα,
8 and a correct message, so that anyone who opposes you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.
λόγον ὑγιῆ, ἀκατάγνωστον, ἵνα ὁ ἐξ ἐναντίας ἐντραπῇ μηδὲν ἔχων λέγειν περὶ (ἡμῶν *N(K)O*) φαῦλον.
9 Teach slaves to obey their masters in everything, to please them and not argue with them,
Δούλους ἰδίοις δεσπόταις ὑποτάσσεσθαι, ἐν πᾶσιν εὐαρέστους εἶναι, μὴ ἀντιλέγοντας,
10 to not steal from them, but instead to demonstrate all good faith, so that in every way they may bring credit to the teaching about God our Savior.
μὴ νοσφιζομένους ἀλλὰ πᾶσαν πίστιν ἐνδεικνυμένους ἀγαθήν, ἵνα τὴν διδασκαλίαν (τὴν *no*) τοῦ σωτῆρος (ἡμῶν *NK(O)*) θεοῦ κοσμῶσιν ἐν πᾶσιν.
11 For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all people.
Ἐπεφάνη γὰρ ἡ χάρις τοῦ θεοῦ (ἡ *k*) σωτήριος πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις
12 It trains us to reject godlessness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in this age, (aiōn g165)
παιδεύουσα ἡμᾶς ἵνα ἀρνησάμενοι τὴν ἀσέβειαν καὶ τὰς κοσμικὰς ἐπιθυμίας σωφρόνως καὶ δικαίως καὶ εὐσεβῶς ζήσωμεν ἐν τῷ νῦν αἰῶνι (aiōn g165)
13 while we look forward to receiving our blessed hope, the appearance of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.
προσδεχόμενοι τὴν μακαρίαν ἐλπίδα καὶ ἐπιφάνειαν τῆς δόξης τοῦ μεγάλου θεοῦ καὶ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ,
14 Jesus gave himself for us in order to redeem us from all lawlessness and to make pure, for himself, a special people who are eager to do good works.
ὃς ἔδωκεν ἑαυτὸν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν ἵνα λυτρώσηται ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ πάσης ἀνομίας καὶ καθαρίσῃ ἑαυτῷ λαὸν περιούσιον, ζηλωτὴν καλῶν ἔργων.
15 Speak of these things, encourage people to do them, and give correction with all authority. Let no one disregard you.
Ταῦτα λάλει καὶ παρακάλει καὶ ἔλεγχε μετὰ πάσης ἐπιταγῆς. μηδείς σου περιφρονείτω.
