2 Older [men] are to be sober-minded, dignified, sound-minded, being sound in faith, in love, in endurance; VP
3 older [women] likewise reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not being enslaved to much wine, teachers of good, VP
4 so that they may make sober-minded the young [women] to be lovers of [their] husbands, lovers of [their] children, VP
5 sound-minded, pure, keepers at home, good, being subject to [their] own husbands, so that the word of God may not be blasphemed. VP
6 Likewise, exhort the younger [men] to be sound-minded. VP
7 Concerning all things, be holding forth yourself [as] a pattern of good works, in the teaching, incorruptibility, dignity, VP
8 sound speech, uncondemnable, so that the [one] of the contrary should be ashamed, having nothing evil to say concerning us. VP
9 Slaves are to be subject to [their] own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not contradicting, VP
10 not pilfering, but demonstrating all good faithfulness, so that they may adorn the teaching of God our Savior in all things. VP
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, VP
12 instructing us that having denied ungodliness and worldly passions, we should live sound-mindedly and righteously and godlily in the present age, VP
13 awaiting the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, VP
14 who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all lawlessness and might purify to Himself a people specially His, zealous for good works. VP
15 Speak these things and exhort and convict with all authority. Let no one despise you. VP
