Tit 2:1-14 | ESV | STEP | But as for you , teach what accords with sound doctrine .

1 But as for you, teach what accords with ^asound ^{▼▼Or healthy; also verses 2, 8} doctrine. 2 Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, ^csound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. 3 ^dOlder women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, ^enot slanderers ^for slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, 4 and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, 5 to be self-controlled, ^gpure, ^hworking at home, kind, and ⁱsubmissive to their own husbands, ^jthat the word of God may not be reviled. 6 Likewise, urge ^kthe younger men to be self-controlled. 7 Show yourself in all respects to be ^la model of good works, and in your teaching ^mshow integrity, ⁿdignity, 8 and ^osound speech that cannot be condemned, ^pso that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. 9 ^qBondservants ^{▼▼Or Slaves (for the contextual rendering of the Greek word doulos, see Preface)} are to be submissive to their own masters ^sin everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, 10 not pilfering, ^tbut showing all good faith, ^uso that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

11 For ^vthe grace of God ^whas appeared, bringing salvation ^xfor all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and ^yworldly passions, and ^zto live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in ^aathe present age, 13 ^abwaiting for our blessed ^achope, the ^adappearing of the glory of our great ^aeGod and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 ^afwho gave himself for us to ^agredeem us from all lawlessness and ^ahto purify for himself ^aia people for his own possession who are ^ajzealous for good works.
