1But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:
1But as for you, speak the things that are consistent with sound doctrine.
2That the aged men be sober, chaste, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.
2Older men are to be temperate, dignified, self-controlled, and sound in faith, love, and perseverance.
3The aged women, in like manner, in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well:
3Older women, likewise, are to be reverent in their behavior, not slanderers or addicted to much wine, but teachers of good.
4That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their children,
4In this way they can train the young women to love their husbands and children,
5To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
5to be self-controlled, pure, managers of their households, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be discredited.
6Young men, in like manner, exhort that they be sober.
6In the same way, urge the younger men to be self-controlled.
7In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity,
7In everything, show yourself to be an example by doing good works. In your teaching show integrity, dignity,
8The sound word that can not be blamed: that he, who is on the contrary part, may be afraid, having no evil to say of us.
8and wholesome speech that is above reproach, so that anyone who opposes us will be ashamed to have nothing bad to say about us.
9Exhort servants to be obedient to their masters, in all things pleasing, not gainsaying:
9Slaves are to submit to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,
10Not defrauding, but in all things shewing good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things:
10not stealing from them, but showing all good faith, so that in every respect they will adorn the teaching about God our Savior.
11For the grace of God our Saviour hath appeared to all men;
11For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone.
12Instructing us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly, and justly, and godly in this world,
12It instructs us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live sensible, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
13Looking for the blessed hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ,
13as we await the blessed hope and glorious appearance of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.
14Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and might cleanse to himself a people acceptable, a pursuer of good works.
14He gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.
15These things speak, and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
15Speak these things as you encourage and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise you.
