Titus 2:1-8 ▼

1 But speak thou the things which befit the sound doctrine:

2 that aged men be temperate, grave, soberminded, sound in faith, in love, in patience:

3 that aged women likewise be reverent in demeanour, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good;

4 that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 to be soberminded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed:

6 the younger men likewise exhort to be soberminded:

7 in all things shewing thyself an ensample of good works; in thy doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity,

8 sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us.
