1But you must say the things that are consistent with sound teaching.[#Ti 1:9]
2Older men are to be level headed, worthy of respect, sensible, and sound in faith, love, and endurance.[#1Tm 5:1; #1Co 13:1; 1Jn 4:16]
3In the same way, older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to much wine. They are to teach what is good,[#1Tm 5:2]
4so they may encourage the young women to love their husbands and to love their children,
5to be self-controlled, pure, homemakers, kind, and submissive to their husbands, so that God’s message will not be slandered.[#Lk 10:17; Eph 5:22; #Lk 8:21; 2Tm 2:15; Heb 4:12]
6In the same way, encourage the young men to be self-controlled[#1Tm 5:1; 1Pt 5:5; 1Jn 2:13-14]
7in everything. Make yourself an example of good works with integrity and dignity in your teaching.[#Other mss add incorruptibility]
8Your message is to be sound beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be ashamed, having nothing bad to say about us.[#1Tm 2:2]
9Slaves are to be submissive to their masters in everything, and to be well-pleasing, not talking back[#Eph 6:5-9; Col 3:22; 1Tm 6:1; 1Pt 2:18; Jd 4; #Heb 13:21]
10or stealing, but demonstrating utter faithfulness, so that they may adorn the teaching of God our Savior in everything.[#1Tm 1:1; 2:3; Ti 1:3; 3:4; Jd 25]
11For the grace of God has appeared with salvation for all people,[#Or appeared, bringing salvation ; or appeared with saving power; #Ac 1:8; Rm 10:14; 2Co 5:18-21; 1Tm 2:4; 4:10; 2Pt 3:9]
12instructing us to deny godlessness and worldly lusts and to live in a sensible, righteous, and godly way in the present age,[#Jd 18; #2Tm 4:10; 2Pt 1:4; 2:10; #Lk 23:41; 1Co 15:34; 1Th 2:10; 1Pt 2:24; #2Tm 3:12]
13while we wait for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.[#Ac 23:6; 1Th 1:3; #Lk 9:32; Jn 17:1,24; 2Co 3:18; 2Pt 3:18]
14He gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for Himself a people for His own possession, eager to do good works.[#Mt 20:28; Mk 10:45; Rm 8:32; Gl 1:4; 2:20; Eph 5:2,25; 1Tm 2:6; #Ex 19:5; Lk 1:68]
