提多书 2
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
要傳講純正的道理
2 至於你,你應當講合乎純正的道理。 2 勸年老的男人要有節制、莊重、自律,在信心、愛心、忍耐上都要健全。 3 照樣,勸年老的婦女行為要敬虔,不說讒言,不被酒奴役,用善道教導人, 4 好提醒年輕的婦女愛丈夫愛兒女, 5 並且自律、貞潔、理家、善良、順從自己的丈夫,免得 神的道受毀謗。 6 照樣,勸年輕的男子要自律。 7 無論在甚麼事上你都要顯出好行為的榜樣,在教導上要純全,要莊重, 8 言詞要純正,無可指摘,使反對的人因為無從毀謗,就自覺慚愧。 9 作奴僕的,要凡事順服自己的主人,討他歡喜,不要頂嘴。 10 不要私取財物,卻要顯示絕對的誠實,好使我們救主 神的道理,在凡事上都得著尊榮。
11 神拯救萬人的恩典已經顯明出來了。 12 這恩典訓練我們除去不敬虔的心,和屬世的私慾,在今生過著自律、公正、敬虔的生活, 13 等候那有福的盼望,就是我們偉大的 神,救主耶穌基督榮耀的顯現。 14 他為我們捨己,為的是要救贖我們脫離一切不法的事,並且潔淨我們作他自己的子民,熱心善工。 15 你要傳講這些事,運用各樣的權柄去勸戒人,責備人;不要讓人輕看你。

Titus 2
Contemporary English Version
Instructions for Different Groups of People
2 Titus, you must teach only what is correct. 2 Tell the older men to have self-control and to be serious and sensible. Their faith, love, and patience must never fail.
3 Tell the older women to behave as those who love the Lord should. They must not gossip about others or be slaves of wine. They must teach what is proper, 4 so the younger women will be loving wives and mothers. 5 Each of the younger women must be sensible and kind, as well as a good homemaker, who puts her own husband first. Then no one can say insulting things about God's message.
6 Tell the young men to have self-control in everything.
7 Always set a good example for others. Be sincere and serious when you teach. 8 Use clean language that no one can criticize. Do this, and your enemies will be too ashamed to say anything against you.
9 Tell slaves always to please their owners by obeying them in everything. Slaves must not talk back to their owners 10 or steal from them. They must be completely honest and trustworthy. Then everyone will show great respect for what is taught about God our Savior.
God's Kindness and the New Life
11 God has shown us undeserved grace by coming to save all people. 12 He taught us to give up our wicked ways and our worldly desires and to live decent and honest lives in this world. 13 We are filled with hope, as we wait for the glorious return of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.[a] 14 (A) He gave himself to rescue us from everything evil and to make our hearts pure. He wanted us to be his own people and to be eager to do right.
15 Teach these things, as you use your full authority to encourage and correct people. Make sure you earn everyone's respect.
