Tito 2

Enseñanza de la sana doctrina

1 Pero tú habla lo que está de acuerdo con la sana doctrina.2 Que los ancianos sean sobrios, serios, prudentes, sanos en la fe, en el amor, en la paciencia.3 Las ancianas asimismo sean reverentes en su porte. Que no sean calumniadoras ni esclavas del vino, sino maestras del bien.4 Que enseñen a las mujeres jóvenes a amar a sus maridos y a sus hijos,

5 a ser prudentes, castas, cuidadosas de su casa, buenas, sujetas a sus maridos, para que la palabra de Dios no sea blasfemada.
6 Exhorta asimismo a los jóvenes a que sean prudentes.7 Preséntate tú en todo como ejemplo de buenas obras; en la enseñanza, mostrando integridad, seriedad,8 palabra sana e irreprochable, de modo que el adversario se avergüence y no tenga nada malo que decir de vosotros.9 Exhorta a los esclavos a que se sujeten a sus amos, que agraden en todo, que no sean respondones.

10 Que no roben, sino que se muestren fieles en todo, para que en todo adornen la doctrina de Dios, nuestro Salvador.
11 La gracia de Dios se ha manifestado para salvación a toda la humanidad,12 y nos enseña que, renunciando a la impiedad y a los deseos mundanos, vivamos en este siglo sobria, justa y piadosamente,13 mientras aguardamos la esperanza bienaventurada y la manifestación gloriosa de nuestro gran Dios y Salvador Jesucristo.

14 Él se dio a sí mismo por nosotros para redimirnos de toda maldad y purificar para sí un pueblo propio, celoso de buenas obras.

15 Esto habla, y exhorta y reprende con toda autoridad. Nadie te menosprecie.

TITUS 2

Instructions for Different Groups //of People

1 Titus, you must teach only what is correct.

2 Tell the older men to have self-control and to be serious and sensible. Their faith, love, and patience must never fail.
3 Tell the older women to behave as those who love the Lord should. They must not gossip about others or be slaves of wine. They must teach what is proper, 4 so the younger women will be loving wives and mothers.

5 Each of the younger women must be sensible and kind, as well as a good homemaker, who puts her own husband first. Then no one can say insulting things about God's message.

6 Tell the young men to have self-control in everything.
7 Always set a good example for others. Be sincere and serious when you teach.

8 Use clean language that no one can criticize. Do this, and your enemies will be too ashamed to say anything against you.
9 Tell slaves always to please their owners by obeying them in everything. Slaves must not talk back to their owners

10 or steal from them. They must be completely honest and trustworthy. Then everyone will show great respect for what is taught about God our Savior.

God's Kindness and //the New Life


11 God has shown us undeserved grace by coming to save all people. 12 He taught us to give up our wicked ways and our worldly desires and to live decent and honest lives in this world. 13 We are filled with hope, as we wait for the glorious return of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.t

14 t He gave himself to rescue us from everything evil and to make our hearts pure. He wanted us to be his own people and to be eager to do right.
15 Teach these things, as you use your full authority to encourage and correct people. Make sure you earn everyone's respect.
