1750 Challoner Revision of the Douay-Rheims (DR)

Titus 2

1 Directions given unto Titus both for his doctrine and life. 9 Of the duty of servants, and in general of all Christians.

 2:1 ¶ But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:

 2:2 That the aged men be sober, chaste, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.

 2:3 The aged women, in like manner, in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well:

 2:4 That they may teach the young women to be wise, to love their husbands, to love their children.

 2:5 To be discreet, chaste, sober, having a care of the house, gentle, obedient to their husbands: that the word of God be not blasphemed.

 2:6 Young men, in like manner, exhort that they be sober.

 2:7 In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity,

 2:8 The sound word that can not be blamed: that he who is on the contrary part may be afraid, having no evil to say of us.

 2:9 Exhort servants to be obedient to their masters: in all things pleasing, not gainsaying:

 2:10 Not defrauding, but in all things shewing good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

 2:11 For the grace of God our Saviour hath appeared to all men:

 2:12 Instructing us, that, denying ungodliness and worldly desires, we should live soberly and justly and godly in this world,

 2:13 Looking for the blessed hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.

 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and might cleanse to himself a people acceptable, a pursuer of good works.

 2:15 These things speak and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.
