Titus 2:1-8 ▼

1 BUT you must preach the things which are proper to sound doctrine.

2 Teach the older men to be vigilant, sober, pure, sound in faith, in love, charity and patience.

3 Teach the older women likewise, to behave as becomes the worship of God, not false accusers, not enslaved to much wine, but to become teachers of good things;

4 That they may teach the young women to be modest, to love their husbands and their children,

5 To be discreet, chaste, good home keepers, obedient to their own husbands, so that no one can reproach the word of God.

6 Likewise exhort the young to be modest.

7 In every thing show yourself an example in all good works, and in your teaching let your word be sound.

8 Choose sound words that are instructive so that no man can point the finger of scorn at us, and so that he who is against us may be shamed, when he can find nothing evil to say about us.
