Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 2:1 | But you speak things which become sound doctrine: |
| 2:2 | aged men to be temperate, sensible, discreet, sound in faith, in love, in patience; |
| 2:3 | aged women likewise in reverent behavior, not slanderers, not having been enslaved by much wine, teachers of good, |
| 2:4 | that they might train the young women to be lovers of husbands, lovers of children, |
| 2:5 | discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God may not be blasphemed, |
| 2:6 | the younger men in the same way exhort to be discreet; |
| 2:7 | having shown yourself a pattern of good works about all things in doctrine, in purity, sensibleness, incorruption, |
| 2:8 | in sound speech, not to be condemned; that he who is opposed may he ashamed, having nothing bad to say about you. |
| 2:9 | Let slaves be subject to their own masters, well-pleasing in all things , not speaking against them , |
| 2:10 | not stealing, but showing all good faith, that they may adorn the doctrine of our Savior God in all things. |
| 2:11 | For the saving grace of God has appeared to all men, |
| 2:12 | instructing us that having denied ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live discreetly and righteously and godly in the present age, |
| 2:13 | looking for the blessed hope and appearance of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, |
| 2:14 | who gave Himself on our behalf, "that He might redeem us from all iniquity" "and purify" "a people" "for His own possession," zealous of good works. Psa. 130:8; Eze. 37:23; Deut. 14:2 |
| 2:15 | Speak these things and exhort and convict with all authority. Let no one despise you. |
