Titus 2

Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)

Clementine Vulgate, 1598

1But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:

1Tu autem loquere quæ decent sanam doctrinam:

2That the aged men be sober, chaste, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.

2senes ut sobrii sint, pudici, prudentes, sani in fide, in dilectione, in patientia:

3The aged women, in like manner, in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well:

3anus similiter in habitu sancto, non criminatrices, non multo vino servientes, bene docentes:

4That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their children,

4ut prudentiam doceant adolescentulas, ut viros suos ament, filios suos diligant,

5To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

5prudentes, castas, sobrias, domus curam habentes, benignas, subditas viris suis, ut non blasphemetur verbum Dei.

6Young men, in like manner, exhort that they be sober.

6Juvenes similiter hortare ut sobrii sint.

7In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity,

7In omnibus teipsum præbe exemplum bonorum operum, in doctrina, in integritate, in gravitate,

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.

8verbum sanum, irreprehensibile: ut is qui ex adverso est, vereatur, nihil habens malum dicere de nobis.

9Exhort servants to be obedient to their masters, in all things pleasing, not gainsaying:

9Servos dominis suis subditos esse, in omnibus placentes, non contradicentes,

10Not defrauding, but in all things shewing good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things:

10non fraudantes, sed in omnibus fidem bonam ostendentes: ut doctrinam Salvatoris nostri Dei ornent in omnibus.

11For the grace of God our Saviour hath appeared to all men;

11Apparuit enim gratia Dei Salvatoris nostri omnibus hominibus,

12Instructing us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly, and justly, and godly in this world,

12erudiens nos, ut abnegantes impietatem, et sæcularia desideria, sobrie, et juste, et pie vivamus in hoc sæculo,

13Looking for the blessed hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ,

13exspectantes beatam spem, et adventum gloriæ magni Dei, et Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christi:

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.

14qui dedit semetipsum pro nobis, ut nos redimeret ab omni iniquitate, et mundaret sibi populum acceptabilem, sectatorem bonorum operum.

15These things speak, and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

15Hæc loquere, et exhortare, et argue cum omni imperio. Nemo te contemnat.
