The In-Dept Study of the Bible
Titus 02
1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
2 that older men should be temperate,
sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in
love, and in perseverance,
3 and that older women likewise be reverent
in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved
to much wine, teachers of that
which is good,
4 that they may train the young wives to
love their husbands, to love their children,
5 to be sober minded, chaste, workers
at home, kind, being in subjection to their
ownhusbands,that God’s word maynot be
blasphemed.
6 Like wise, exhortthe younger men to be
sober minded.
7 In all things show yourself an example
of good works. In your teaching, show
integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,
8 and soundness of speech that can’t be
condemned, that he who opposes you may
be ashamed, having no evil thing to say
about us.
9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to
their own masters and to be well-pleasing
in all things, not contradicting,
10 not stealing, but showing all good
fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of
God, our Savior, in all things.
11 For the grace of God has appeared,
bringing salvation to all men,
12 instructing us to the intent that,
denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we
would live soberly, righteously, and godly
in this present age;
13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing
of the glory of our great God and
Savior, Jesus Christ,
14 who gave himself for us, that he might
redeem us from all iniquity and purify for
himself a people for his own possession,
zealous for good works.
15 Say these things and exhort and reprove
with all authority. Let no one despise you.
