| 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; |
| 2:9 | 勸僕人要順服自己的主人、凡事討他的喜歡．不可頂撞他． |
| 2:9 | 劝仆人要顺服自己的主人，凡事讨他的喜欢。不可顶撞他。 |
| 1ti:6:1 | Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed. |
| 1ti:6:2 | And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort. |
| 1pe:2:18 | Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward. |

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