Titus 2:1-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Sound Teaching and Christian Living
2 But you must say the things that are consistent with sound teaching.(A) 2 Older men(B) are to be level headed, worthy of respect, sensible, and sound in faith, love,(C) and endurance. 3 In the same way, older women(D) are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to much wine. They are to teach what is good, 4 so they may encourage the young women to love their husbands and to love their children, 5 to be self-controlled, pure, homemakers, kind, and submissive(E) to their husbands, so that God’s message(F) will not be slandered.
6 In the same way, encourage the young men(G) to be self-controlled 7 in everything. Make yourself an example of good works with integrity and dignity[a] in your teaching. 8 Your message is to be sound beyond reproach,(H) so that the opponent will be ashamed, having nothing bad to say about us.
