But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for sound doctrine. | |
Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance. | |
Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, | |
so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, | |
{to be} sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored. | |
Likewise urge the young men to be sensible; | |
in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, {with} purity in doctrine, dignified, | |
sound {in} speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us. | |
{Urge} bondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, | |
not pilfering, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect. | |
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, | |
instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, | |
looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, | |
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. | |
These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you. |
