| 2:1 | But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: |
| 2:2 | That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. |
| 2:3 | The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; |
| 2:4 | That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, |
| 2:5 | To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. |
| 2:6 | Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. |
| 2:7 | In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, |
| 2:8 | 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. |
| 2:9 | Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again; |
| 2:10 | Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things. |
| 2:11 | For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, |
| 2:12 | Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; |
| 2:13 | Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing 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 purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. |
| 2:14 | 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。 |
| 2:14 | 他为我们舍了自己，要赎我们脱离一切罪恶，又洁净我们，特作自己的子民，热心为善。 |
| eph:5:2 | And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. |
| 1ti:2:6 | Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. |
| mat:20:28 | Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. |
| psm:130:8 | And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. |
| 1pe:1:18 | Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; |
| eze:37:23 | Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God. |
| heb:9:13 | For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: |
| heb:9:14 | How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? |
| exo:19:5 | Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: |
| deu:7:6 | For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. |
| psm:135:4 | For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure. |
| 1pe:2:9 | But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: |
| COBL | |
| 2:15 | These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee. |
