1
But as for you, teach what is consistent with sound doctrine.
2
Tell the older men to be temperate, serious, prudent, and sound in faith, in love, and in endurance.
3
Likewise, tell the older women to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,
4
so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5
to be self-controlled, chaste, good managers of the household, kind, being submissive to their husbands, so that the word of God may not be discredited.
6
Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled.
