**1 **But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: **2 **That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience.

**3 **The aged women likewise, that *they be* in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; **4 **That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, **5 ***To be* discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

**6 **Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. **7 **In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine *shewing* uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, **8 **Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

**9 ***Exhort* servants to be obedient unto their own masters, *and* to please *them* well in all *things*; not answering again; **10 **Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

**11 **For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, **12 **Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; **13 **Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; **14 **Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

**15 **These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
