New American Standard Bible 1995

Titus 2:9-15

9Urge 1bondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not 2argumentative, 10not pilfering, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of 3God our Savior in every respect.

11For the grace of God has 4appeared, 5 6bringing salvation to all men, 12 7instructing us to deny ungodliness and 8worldly desires and 9to live sensibly, righteously and godly 10in the present age, 13looking for the blessed hope and the 11appearing of the glory of 12 13our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, 14who 14gave Himself for us 15to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to 16purify for Himself a 17people for His own possession, 18zealous for good deeds.

15These things speak and 19exhort and 20reprove with all 21authority. 22Let no one disregard you.
