Titus 2:1-6

Wycliffe WYC

1 But speak thou those things that beseem wholesome teaching; [Forsooth speak thou the things that become wholesome teaching;]

2 that old men be sober, chaste, prudent, whole in faith, in love, and patience;

3 also old women in holy habit, not slanderers [not backbiters, or saying false blame on other men], not serving much to wine, well-teaching, that they teach prudence.

4 Admonish thou young women, that they love their husbands, that they love their children;

5 and that they be prudent, chaste, sober, having care of the house, benign, subject to their husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

6 Also admonish young men, that they be sober.

New International Version NIV

1 You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine.

2 Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in love and in endurance.

3 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.

4 Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children,

5 to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.

6 Similarly, encourage the young men to be self-controlled.
