Titus 2

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

¹但你所講的總要合乎那純正的道理。

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

²勸老年人要有節制、端莊、自守，在信心、愛心、忍耐上都要純全無疵。

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

³又勸老年婦人，舉止行動要恭敬，不說讒言，不給酒作奴僕，用善道教訓人，

⁴so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

⁴好指教少年婦人，愛丈夫，愛兒女，

⁵[to be] sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.

⁵謹守，貞潔，料理家務，待人有恩，順服自己的丈夫，免得神的道理被毀謗。

⁶Likewise urge the young men to be sensible;

⁶又勸少年人要謹守。

⁷in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, [with] purity in doctrine, dignified,

⁷你自己凡事要顯出善行的榜樣；在教訓上要正直、端莊，

⁸sound [in] speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.

⁸言語純全，無可指責，叫那反對的人，既無處可說我們的不是，便自覺羞愧。

⁹[Urge] bondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,

⁹勸僕人要順服自己的主人，凡事討他的喜歡，不可頂撞他，

¹⁰not pilfering, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect.

¹⁰不可私拿東西；要顯為忠誠，以致凡事尊榮我們救主神的道。

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

¹¹因為神救眾人的恩典已經顯明出來，

¹²instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age,

¹²教訓我們除去不敬虔的心和世俗的情慾，在今世自守、公義、敬虔度日，

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

¹³等候所盼望的福，並等候至大的神和我們（或作：神─我們）救主耶穌基督的榮耀顯現。

¹⁴who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

¹⁴他為我們捨了自己，要贖我們脫離一切罪惡，又潔淨我們，特作自己的子民，熱心為善。

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

¹⁵這些事你要講明，勸戒人，用各等權柄責備人；不可叫人輕看你。
