Titus 2 — LSV

2Verse 1But you—speak what is suitable [according] to the sound teaching.^{Verse 2}Elders [are] to be temperate, dignified, sober, sound in faith, in the love, in the endurance.^{Verse 3}Aged women, in like manner, in behavior as becomes sacred persons, not false accusers, not enslaved to much wine, teachers of good things,^{Verse 4}that they may make the young women sober-minded, to be lovers of [their] husbands, lovers of [their] children,^{Verse 5}sober, pure, keepers of [their own] houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that evil may not be spoken of the word of God.^{Verse 6}The younger men, in like manner, exhort [them] to be sober-minded.^{Verse 7}Concerning all things, present yourself [as] a pattern of good works—in the teaching [with] uncorruptedness, dignity,^{Verse 8}sound discourse [that is] blameless, so that he who is of the contrary may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say concerning you.^{Verse 9}Servants [are] to be subject to their own masters, to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting,^{Verse 10}not stealing, but showing all good steadfastness, that the teaching of God our Savior they may adorn in all things.^{Verse 11}For the saving grace of God has appeared to all men,^{Verse 12}teaching us, that denying the impiety and the worldly desires, we may live soberly, and righteously, and piously in the present age,^{Verse 13}waiting for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,^{Verse 14}who gave Himself for us, that He might ransom us from all lawlessness, and might purify to Himself a special people, zealous of good works.^{Verse 15}Speak these things, and exhort and convict with all authority; let no one despise you!
