La enseñanza de buena doctrina

Pero en cuanto a ti, enseña[a] lo que está de acuerdo con la sana doctrina(A): Los ancianos(B) deben ser sobrios(C), dignos, prudentes(D), sanos(E) en la fe(F), en el amor, en la perseverancia. Asimismo, las ancianas deben ser reverentes en su conducta, no calumniadoras(G) ni esclavas de mucho vino(H). Que enseñen lo bueno, para que puedan instruir[b] a las jóvenes a que amen a sus maridos, a que amen a sus hijos, a que sean prudentes, puras, hacendosas en el hogar(I), amables, sujetas a sus maridos(J), para que la palabra de Dios no sea blasfemada(K).

Asimismo, exhorta a los jóvenes(L) a que sean prudentes. Muéstrate en todo[c] como ejemplo de buenas obras(M), con pureza[d] de doctrina, con dignidad, con palabra sana e irreprochable, a fin de que el adversario se avergüence(N) al no tener nada malo que decir de nosotros.

Exhorta a los siervos[e](O) a que se sujeten a sus amos en todo, que sean complacientes, no contradiciendo, 10 no defraudando, sino mostrando toda buena fe, para que adornen la doctrina de Dios nuestro Salvador en todo respecto(P).

11 Porque la gracia de Dios se ha manifestado(Q), trayendo salvación a todos los hombres[f](R), 12 enseñándonos, que negando la impiedad y los deseos mundanos(S), vivamos en este mundo[g] sobria(T), justa y piadosamente(U), 13 aguardando la esperanza bienaventurada y la manifestación de la gloria(V) de nuestro gran Dios y Salvador[h] Cristo Jesús(W). 14 Él se dio por nosotros(X), para redimirnos de toda iniquidad(Y) y purificar para Sí(Z) un pueblo para posesión Suya(AA), celoso de buenas obras(AB).

15 Esto habla, exhorta(AC) y reprende con toda autoridad[i](AD). Que nadie te menosprecie(AE).

Qualities of a Sound Church

But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine: that the older men be sober, reverent, temperate, sound in faith, in love, in patience; the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things— that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, (A)homemakers, good, (B)obedient to their own husbands, (C)that the word of God may not be blasphemed.

Likewise, exhort the young men to be sober-minded, in all things showing yourself to be (D)a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, (E)incorruptibility,[a] sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of [b]you.

Exhort (F)bondservants to be obedient to their own masters, to be well pleasing in all things, not answering back, 10 not [c]pilfering, but showing all good [d]fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

Trained by Saving Grace

11 For (G)the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, 12 teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, 13 (H)looking for the blessed (I)hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 (J)who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed (K)and purify for Himself (L)His own special people, zealous for good works.

15 Speak these things, (M)exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you.

But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:

That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.

In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,

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

Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;

10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

15 These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
