1 yathārthasyōpadēśasya vākyāni tvayā kathyantāṁ

Tu autem loquere quæ decent sanam doctrinam:

2 viśēṣataḥ prācīnalōkā yathā prabuddhā dhīrā vinītā viśvāsē prēmni sahiṣṇutāyāñca svasthā bhavēyustadvat

senes ut sobrii sint, pudici, prudentes, sani in fide, in dilectione, in patientia:

3 prācīnayōṣitō'pi yathā dharmmayōgyam ācāraṁ kuryyuḥ paranindakā bahumadyapānasya nighnāśca na bhavēyuḥ

anus similiter in habitu sancto, non criminatrices, non multo vino servientes, bene docentes:

4 kintu suśikṣākāriṇyaḥ satya īśvarasya vākyaṁ yat na nindyēta tadarthaṁ yuvatīḥ suśīlatām arthataḥ patisnēham apatyasnēhaṁ

ut prudentiam doceant adolescentulas, ut viros suos ament, filios suos diligant,

5 vinītiṁ śucitvaṁ gr̥hiṇītvaṁ saujanyaṁ svāminighnañcādiśēyustathā tvayā kathyatāṁ|

prudentes, castas, sobrias, domus curam habentes, benignas, subditas viris suis, ut non blasphemetur verbum Dei.

6 tadvad yūnō'pi vinītayē prabōdhaya|

Juvenes similiter hortare ut sobrii sint.

7 tvañca sarvvaviṣayē svaṁ satkarmmaṇāṁ dr̥ṣṭāntaṁ darśaya śikṣāyāñcāvikr̥tatvaṁ dhīratāṁ yathārthaṁ

In omnibus teipsum præbe exemplum bonorum operum, in doctrina, in integritate, in gravitate,

8 nirddōṣañca vākyaṁ prakāśaya tēna vipakṣō yuṣmākam apavādasya kimapi chidraṁ na prāpya trapiṣyatē|

verbum sanum, irreprehensibile: ut is qui ex adverso est, vereatur, nihil habens malum dicere de nobis.

9 dāsāśca yat svaprabhūnāṁ nighnāḥ sarvvaviṣayē tuṣṭijanakāśca bhavēyuḥ pratyuttaraṁ na kuryyuḥ

Servos dominis suis subditos esse, in omnibus placentes, non contradicentes,

10 kimapi nāpaharēyuḥ kintu pūrṇāṁ suviśvastatāṁ prakāśayēyuriti tān ādiśa| yata ēvamprakārēṇāsmakaṁ trāturīśvarasya śikṣā sarvvaviṣayē tai rbhūṣitavyā|

non fraudantes, sed in omnibus fidem bonam ostendentes: ut doctrinam Salvatoris nostri Dei ornent in omnibus.

11 yatō hētōstrāṇājanaka īśvarasyānugrahaḥ sarvvān mānavān pratyuditavān

Apparuit enim gratia Dei Salvatoris nostri omnibus hominibus,

12 sa cāsmān idaṁ śikṣyati yad vayam adharmmaṁ sāṁsārikābhilāṣāṁścānaṅgīkr̥tya vinītatvēna nyāyēnēśvarabhaktyā cēhalōkē āyu ryāpayāmaḥ, (aiōn g165)

erudiens nos, ut abnegantes impietatem, et sæcularia desideria, sobrie, et juste, et pie vivamus in hoc sæculo, (aiōn g165)

13 paramasukhasyāśām arthatō 'smākaṁ mahata īśvarasya trāṇakarttu ryīśukhrīṣṭasya prabhāvasyōdayaṁ pratīkṣāmahē|

exspectantes beatam spem, et adventum gloriæ magni Dei, et Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christi:

14 yataḥ sa yathāsmān sarvvasmād adharmmāt mōcayitvā nijādhikārasvarūpaṁ satkarmmasūtsukam ēkaṁ prajāvargaṁ pāvayēt tadartham asmākaṁ kr̥tē ātmadānaṁ kr̥tavān|

qui dedit semetipsum pro nobis, ut nos redimeret ab omni iniquitate, et mundaret sibi populum acceptabilem, sectatorem bonorum operum.

15 ētāni bhāṣasva pūrṇasāmarthyēna cādiśa prabōdhaya ca, kō'pi tvāṁ nāvamanyatāṁ|

Hæc loquere, et exhortare, et argue cum omni imperio. Nemo te contemnat.
