Titus 2:1-10


Teach Sound Doctrine

But as for you, teach what accords with asound1 doctrine.
2 Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, asound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. 3 aOlder women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, bnot slanderers cor slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, 4 and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, 5 to be self-controlled, apure, bworking at home, kind, and csubmissive to their own husbands, dthat the word of God may not be reviled. 6 Likewise, urge athe younger men to be self-controlled. 7 Show yourself in all respects to be aa model of good works, and in your teaching bshow integrity, cdignity, 8 and asound speech that cannot be condemned, bso that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. 9 aBondservants1 are to be submissive to their own masters bin everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, 10 not pilfering, abut showing all good faith, bso that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.
