Proclaim Sound Doctrine

2 But as for you, proclaim the things which are fitting for ^(A)sound doctrine. ^2 (B)Older men are to be ^[a](C)temperate, dignified, self-controlled, ^(D)sound ^(E)in faith, in love, in ^[b]perseverance.

³ Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, ^(F)not malicious gossips nor ^(G)enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, ⁴ so that they may ^[c]encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, ⁵ to be sensible, pure, ^(H)workers at home, kind, being ^(I)subject to their own husbands, ^(J)so that the word of God will not be dishonored.

⁶ Likewise urge ^(K)the young men to be ^[d]sensible; ⁷ in all things show yourself to be ^(L)an example of good deeds, with ^[e]purity in doctrine, dignified, ⁸ sound in speech which is beyond reproach, ^(M)so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.

⁹ Urge ^[f](N)slaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be pleasing, not ^[g]argumentative, ¹⁰ not stealing, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of ^(O)God our Savior in every respect.

¹¹ For the grace of God has ^(P)appeared, ^[h](Q)bringing salvation to all people, ^12 [i]instructing us to deny ungodliness and ^(R)worldly desires and ^(S)to live sensibly, righteously, and in a godly manner ^(T)in the present age, ¹³ looking for the blessed hope and the ^(U)appearing of the glory of ^[j](V)our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, ¹⁴ who ^(W)gave Himself for us ^(X)to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to ^(Y)purify for Himself a ^(Z)people for His own possession, ^(AA)eager for good deeds.

¹⁵ These things speak and ^[k](AB)exhort, and ^(AC)rebuke with all authority. ^(AD)No one is to disregard you.
