Titus 2
English Revised Version

Teaching Sound Doctrine

1But speak thou the things which befit the sound doctrine: 2that aged men be temperate, grave, soberminded, sound in faith, in love, in patience:

3that aged women likewise be reverent in demeanour, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good; 4that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, 5to be soberminded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed:

6the younger men likewise exhort to be soberminded: 7in all things shewing thyself an ensample of good works; in thy doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, 8sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us.

9Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters, and to be well-pleasing to them in all things; not gainsaying; 10not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

God's Grace Brings Salvation

11For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men, 12instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world; 13looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ; 14who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a people for his own possession, zealous of good works.

15These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
