Proclaim Sound Doctrine

1But as for you, proclaimG2980 the things whichG3739 are fittingG4241 for 1soundG5198 doctrineG1319. 2 2OlderG4246 menG4246 are to be 3 4temperateG3524, dignifiedG4586, self-controlledG4998, 5soundG5198 6in faithG4102, in loveG26, in 7perseveranceG5281.

3OlderG4247 womenG4247 likewiseG5615 are to be reverentG2412 in their behaviorG2688, 8not maliciousG1228 gossipsG1228 norG3366 9enslavedG1402 to muchG4183 wineG3631, teachingG2567 whatG2567 isG2567 goodG2567, 4soG2443 thatG2443 they may 10encourageG4994 the youngG3501 womenG3501 to loveG5362 their husbandsG5362, to loveG5388 their childrenG5388, 5to be sensibleG4998, pureG53, 11workersG3626 atG3626 homeG3626, kindG18, beingG5293 12subjectG5293 to their ownG2398 husbandsG435, 13soG2443 thatG2443 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 will not be dishonoredG987.

6LikewiseG5615 urgeG3870 14the youngG3501 menG3501 to be 15sensibleG4993; 7in allG3956 thingsG3956 showG3930 yourselfG4572 to be 16an exampleG5179 of goodG2570 deedsG2041, with 17purityG862 in doctrineG1319, dignifiedG4587, 8soundG5199 in speechG3056 which is beyondG176 reproachG176, 18soG2443 thatG2443 the opponentG1727 will be putG1788 toG1788 shameG1788, havingG2192 nothingG3367 badG5337 to sayG3004 aboutG4012 us.

9Urge 19 20slavesG1401 to beG5293 subjectG5293 to their ownG2398 mastersG1203 in everythingG3956, to be pleasingG2101, not 21argumentativeG483, 10not stealingG3557, but showingG1731 allG3956 goodG18 faithG4102 soG2443 thatG2443 they will adornG2885 the doctrineG1319 of 22GodG2316 our SaviorG4990 in everyG3956 respectG3956.

11For the graceG5485 of GodG2316 has 23appearedG2014, 24 25bringingG4992 salvationG4992 to allG3956 peopleG444, 12 26instructingG3811 us to denyG720 ungodlinessG763 and 27worldlyG2886 desiresG1939 and 28to liveG2198 sensiblyG4996, righteouslyG1346, and inG2153 aG2153 godlyG2153 mannerG2153 29in the presentG3568 ageG165, 13lookingG4327 for the blessedG3107 hopeG1680 and the 30appearingG2015 of the gloryG1391 of 31 32our greatG3173 GodG2316 and SaviorG4990, ChristG5547 JesusG2424, 14whoG3739 33gaveG1325 HimselfG1438 for us 34to redeemG3084 us from everyG3956 lawlessG458 deedG458, and to 35purifyG2511 for HimselfG1438 a 36peopleG2992 for His ownG1438 possessionG4041, 37eagerG2207 for goodG2570 deedsG2041.

15TheseG3778 thingsG3778 speakG2980 and 38 39exhortG3870, and 40rebukeG1651 with allG3956 authorityG2003. 41NoG3367 oneG3367 is to disregardG4065 you.
