READ THE BIBLE
| 001: | But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: | | 002: | That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. | | 003: | The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; | | 004: | That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, | | 005: | To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. | | 006: | Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. | | 007: | In all things showing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine showing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, | | 008: | 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. | | 009: | Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again; | | 010: | Not purloining, but showing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things. | | 011: | For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, | | 012: | Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; | | 013: | Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; | | 014: | Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. | | 015: | These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee. |
