## Instructions for the Older and Younger 

###### 1
But as for you, speak the things which are proper for sound doctrine. 

###### 2
Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance. 

###### 3
Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, 

###### 4
so that they may instruct the young women in sensibility: to love their husbands, to love their children, 

###### 5
_to be_ sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be slandered. 

###### 6
Likewise urge the younger men to be sensible; 

###### 7
in all things show yourself to be a model of good works, _with_ purity in doctrine, dignified, 

###### 8
sound _in_ word which is irreproachable, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us. 

###### 9
_Urge_ slaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be pleasing, not contradicting, 

###### 10
not pilfering, but demonstrating all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in everything. 

###### 11
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, 

###### 12
instructing us that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live sensibly, righteously, and godly in the present age, 

###### 13
looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 

###### 14
who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all lawlessness, and purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good works. 

###### 15
These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.
