Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)

1Tu autem loquere quæ decent sanam doctrinam:

1But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

6Juvenes similiter hortare ut sobrii sint.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

11Apparuit enim gratia Dei Salvatoris nostri omnibus hominibus,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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