2:1 Proper behaviour for believers
2 But you, Titos speak only what comes from sound teaching. 2 Older men need to be sober, dignified, sensible, and sound in their faith, their love, and their endurance. 3 Likewise older women need to honour God by their behaviour, not making false accusations, not addicted to a lot of wine. They should teaching what is good 4 so that they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children, 5 and to be sensible and pure, homemakers that do good for others, living under the authority of their husbands so that others don’t speak evil of God’s message because of them.
6 Also encourage younger men to be sensible. 7 Be a good example in everything you do and in your teaching. Don’t be led astray, maintain your dignity, 8 watch every word that comes out of your lips, stay above reproach—all this so that those who oppose us can be reached because there’s nothing bad they can say about us.
9 Slaves need to conform to their master’s commands, aiming to please. They shouldn’t speak against their masters 10 or be pilfering from them, rather they should display their good faith so that their actions add to the teachings of God our saviour.
11 This is because God’s grace which offers salvation to all people has appeared 12 and teaches us that when we distance ourselves from ungodliness and worldly lusts, we can live sensibly and justly and devoutly in the present age. 13 Then we can look forward to the blessing of the majestic appearance of our great God and saviour, Yeshua the messiah 14 [ref]who gave himself for us in order to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify us into his chosen people, eager to do good things.
15 Teach these things as you encourage some and scold others, but don’t let anyone disrespect you.
