Tite 2:1 In-Context

1 Pour toi, enseigne les choses qui sont conformes à la saine doctrine.
2 Que les vieillards soient sobres, graves, prudents, sains dans la foi, dans la charité, dans la patience.

4 Afin qu'elles apprennent aux jeunes à aimer leurs maris, à aimer leurs enfants;
5 A être sages, chastes, à garder la maison; à être bonnes, soumises à leurs maris; afin que la parole de Dieu ne soit point calomniée.
