Titus:2
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But as for you ,
speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine :
*
that the older men be sober ,
reverent ,
temperate ,
sound in faith ,
in love ,
in patience ;
*
the older women likewise ,
that they be reverent in behavior ,
not slanderers ,
not given to much wine ,
teachers of good things --
*
that they admonish the young women to love their husbands ,
to love their children ,
*
to be discreet ,
chaste ,
homemakers ,
good ,
obedient to their own husbands ,
that the word of God may not be blasphemed .
*
Likewise ,
exhort the young men to be sober-minded ,
*
in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works ;
in doctrine showing integrity ,
reverence ,
incorruptibility ,
*
sound speech that cannot be condemned ,
that one who is an opponent may be ashamed ,
having nothing evil to say of you .
*
Exhort bondservants to be obedient to their own masters ,
to be well pleasing in all things ,
not answering back ,
*
not pilfering ,
but showing all good fidelity ,
that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things .
*
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men ,
*
teaching us that ,
denying ungodliness and worldly lusts ,
we should live soberly ,
righteously ,
and godly in the present age ,
*
looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ ,
*
who gave Himself for us ,
that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people ,
zealous for good works .
*
Speak these things ,
exhort ,
and rebuke with all authority .
Let no one despise you .
