提多書 2

純正的道理

1 但你所講的總要合乎那純正的道理。 2 勸老年人要有節制、端莊、自守，在信心、愛心、忍耐上都要純全無疵。 3 又勸老年婦人，舉止行動要恭敬，不說讒言，不給酒作奴僕，用善道教訓人， 4 好指教少年婦人，愛丈夫，愛兒女， 5 謹守，貞潔，料理家務，待人有恩，順服自己的丈夫，免得上帝的道理被毀謗。 6 又勸少年人要謹守。 7 你自己凡事要顯出善行的榜樣；在教訓上要正直、端莊， 8 言語純全，無可指責，叫那反對的人，既無處可說我們的不是，便自覺羞愧。 9 勸僕人要順服自己的主人，凡事討他的喜歡，不可頂撞他， 10 不可私拿東西，要顯為忠誠，以致凡事尊榮我們救主－上帝的道。

11 因為上帝救眾人的恩典已經顯明出來， 12 教訓我們除去不敬虔的心和世俗的情慾，在今世自守、公義、敬虔度日， 13 等候所盼望的福，並等候至大的上帝和我們t救主耶穌基督的榮耀顯現。 14 他為我們捨了自己，要贖我們脫離一切罪惡，又潔淨我們，特作自己的子民，熱心為善。 15 這些事你要講明，勸戒人，用各等權柄責備人；不可叫人輕看你。

Titus 2

Conduct Consistent with Sound Teaching

1 But as for you, communicate the behavior that goes witht sound teaching.2 Older men are to be temperate, dignified, self-controlled,t sound in faith, in love, and in endurance.s3 Older women likewise are to exhibit behavior fitting for those who are holy, not slandering, not slaves to excessive drinking, but teaching what is good.4 In this wayt they will traint the younger women to love their husbands, to love their children,5 to be self-controlled,t pure, fulfilling their duties at home,t kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the messaget of God may not be discredited.t6 Encourage younger men likewise to be self-controlled,t7 showing yourself to be an example of good works in every way. In your teaching show integrity, dignity,8 and a sound message that cannot be criticized, so that any opponent will be at a loss,t because he has nothing evil to say about us.9 Slavest are to be subject to their own masters in everything,t to do what is wanted and not talk back,

10 not pilfering, but showing all good faith,t in order to bring credit tot the teaching of God our Savior in everything.
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people.t12 It trains ust to reject godless wayst and worldly desires and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,13 as we wait for the happy fulfillment of our hope in the glorious appearingt of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.t14 Het gave himself for us to set us free from every kind of lawlessness and to purify for himself a people who are truly his,t who are eager to do good.t

15 So communicate these things with the sort of exhortation or rebuket that carries full authority.t Don’t let anyone look downt on you.
