Titus 2:1-6

New Century Version NCV

1 But you must tell everyone what to do to follow the true teaching.

3 In the same way, teach older women to be holy in their behavior, not speaking against others or enslaved to too much wine, but teaching what is good.

4 Then they can teach the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 to be wise and pure, to be good workers at home, to be kind, and to yield to their husbands. Then no one will be able to criticize the teaching God gave us.

6 In the same way, encourage young men to be wise.
