NASB Bible

Titus 2

Duties of the Older and Younger

1

But as for you, speak the things which are fitting for  asound doctrine.

2

 aOlder men are to be  btemperate, dignified, sensible,  csound  din faith, in love, in  1perseverance.

3

Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior,  anot malicious gossips nor  benslaved to much wine, teaching what is good,

4

so that they may  1encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

5

to be sensible, pure,  aworkers at home, kind, being  bsubject to their own husbands,  cso that the word of God will not be dishonored.

6

Likewise urge  athe young men to be  1sensible;

7

in all things show yourself to be  aan example of good deeds, with  1purity in doctrine, dignified,

8

sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so  athat the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.

9

Urge  abondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not  1argumentative,

10

not pilfering, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of  aGod our Savior in every respect.

11

For the grace of God has  aappeared,  1 bbringing salvation to all men,

12

 1instructing us to deny ungodliness and  aworldly desires and  bto live sensibly, righteously and godly  cin the present age,

13

looking for the blessed hope and the  aappearing of the glory of  1 bour great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,

14

who  agave Himself for us  bto redeem us from every lawless deed, and to  cpurify for Himself a  dpeople for His own possession,  ezealous for good deeds.

15

These things speak and  aexhort and  areprove with all  1authority.  bLet no one disregard you.
