Duties of the Older and Younger
1 Titus 2:1 But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine.
2 Titus 2:2 Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance.
3 Titus 2:3 Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good,
4 Titus 2:4 so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 Titus 2:5 to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.
6 Titus 2:6 Likewise urge the young men to be sensible;
7 Titus 2:7 in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified,
8 Titus 2:8 sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.
9 Titus 2:9 Urge bondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,
10 Titus 2:10 not pilfering, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect.
11 Titus 2:11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
12 Titus 2:12 instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age,
13 Titus 2:13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
14 Titus 2:14 who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.
15 Titus 2:15 These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.
