提多書 2
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
健全的教訓
2 至於你,你所講的要與健全的教義相宜: 2 年長的男人要節制、莊重、自律,在信仰、愛心和忍耐上要健全; 3 同樣,年長的婦女在舉止行為上要合乎聖潔、不惡意控告、不成為酒的奴隸,要教導美好的事; 4 這樣,她們可以訓導年輕的婦女愛丈夫、愛兒女、 5 自律、貞潔、善理家務、良善、服從自己的丈夫,免得神的話語[a]受到褻瀆。
6 同樣,你要鼓勵年輕的男人清醒自制; 7 你自己要在一切事上做出美好工作的榜樣;教導的時候要正直[b]、莊重[c], 8 要用無可指責的健全話語,使反對的人在我們[d]的事上因沒有壞話可說,就感到羞愧。
9 奴僕要在一切事上服從自己的主人、討主人喜悅,不可頂嘴、 10 不可私拿東西,反要顯出所有美好的忠信,好在一切事上為神我們救主的教導增添光彩。
11 事實上,神拯救萬民的恩典已經顯明出來了。 12 這恩典管教我們,使我們拒絕不敬神的事和地上的欲望,在今世能過自制、公義、敬神的生活, 13 期待那蒙福的盼望,以及我們那偉大的神、救主耶穌基督[e]榮耀的顯現。 14 他為我們獻上自己,是為了救贖我們脫離一切罪惡[f],並且潔淨我們做他自己特選的子民,做美好工作的熱心人。
15 你要講說這些,充分地使用權威來勸勉、責備;不要讓任何人輕看你。
Titus 2
King James Version
2 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:
2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.
3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded.
7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,
8 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.
9 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.
