Titus 2
1But
speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:
2That
the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.
3The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given
to much wine, teachers of good things;
4That
they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God
be not blasphemed.
6Young men likewise exhort
to be sober minded.
7In all things shewing
thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,
8Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having
no evil thing to say of you.
9Exhort servants
to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;
10Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the
doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.
11For
the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
12Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and
godly, in this present world;
13Looking for
that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and
purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
15These
things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
