Titus 2:6-15

English Standard Version

⁶ Likewise, urge ^(A)the younger men to be self-controlled. ⁷ Show yourself in all respects to be ^(B)a model of good works, and in your teaching ^(C)show integrity, ^(D)dignity, ⁸ and ^(E)sound speech that cannot be condemned, ^(F)so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. ^9 (G)Bondservants^[a] are to be submissive to their own masters ^(H)in everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, ¹⁰ not pilfering, ^(I)but showing all good faith, ^(J)so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

¹¹ For ^(K)the grace of God ^(L)has appeared, bringing salvation ^(M)for all people, ¹² training us to renounce ungodliness and ^(N)worldly passions, and ^(O)to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in ^(P)the present age, ^13 (Q)waiting for our blessed ^(R)hope, the ^(S)appearing of the glory of our great ^(T)God and Savior Jesus Christ, ^14 (U)who gave himself for us to ^(V)redeem us from all lawlessness and ^(W)to purify for himself ^(X)a people for his own possession who are ^(Y)zealous for good works.

¹⁵ Declare these things; exhort and ^(Z)rebuke with all authority. ^(AA)Let no one disregard you.
