GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Συ ομως λαλει οσα πρεπουσιν εις την υγιαινουσαν διδασκαλιαν.	1 As for yourself, you must say what is consistent with sound doctrine, namely,
2 Οι γεροντες να ηναι αγρυπνοι, σεμνοι, σωφρονες, υγιαινοντες εν τη πιστει, τη αγαπη, τη υπομονη.	2 that older men should be temperate, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, love, and endurance.
3 Αι γραιαι ωσαυτως να εχωσι τροπον ιεροπρεπη, μη καταλαλοι, μη δεδουλωμεναι εις πολλην οινοποσιαν, να ηναι διδασκαλοι των καλων,	3 Similarly, older women should be reverent in their behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to drink, teaching what is good,
4 δια να νουθετωσι τας νεας να ηναι φιλανδροι, φιλοτεκνοι,	4 so that they may train younger women to love their husbands and children,
5 σωφρονες, καθαραι, οικοφυλακες, αγαθαι, ευπειθεις εις τους ιδιους αυτων ανδρας, δια να μη βλασφημηται ο λογος του Θεου.	5 to be self-controlled, chaste, good homemakers, under the control of their husbands, so that the word of God may not be discredited.
6 Τους νεωτερους ωσαυτως νουθετει να σωφρονωσι,	6 Urge the younger men, similarly, to control themselves,
7 δεικνυων κατα παντα σεαυτον τυπον των καλων εργων, φυλαττων εν τη διδασκαλια αδιαφθοριαν, σεμνοτητα,	7 showing yourself as a model of good deeds in every respect, with integrity in your teaching, dignity,
8 λογον υγιη και ακατακριτον, δια να εντραπη ο εναντιος, μη εχων να λεγη δια σας μηδεν κακον.	8 and sound speech that cannot be criticized, so that the opponent will be put to shame without anything bad to say about us.
9 Τους δουλους να υποτασσωνται εις τους εαυτων δεσποτας, να ευαρεστωσιν εις αυτους κατα παντα, να μη αντιλεγωσι,	9 Slaves are to be under the control of their masters in all respects, giving them satisfaction, not talking back to them
10 να μη σφετεριζωνται τα αλλοτρια, αλλα να δεικνυωσι πασαν πιστιν αγαθην, δια να στολιζωσι κατα παντα την διδασκαλιαν του σωτηρος ημων Θεου.	10 or stealing from them, but exhibiting complete good faith, so as to adorn the doctrine of God our savior in every way.
11 Διοτι εφανερωθη η χαρις του Θεου η σωτηριος εις παντας ανθρωπους,	11 For the grace of God has appeared, saving all
12 διδασκουσα ημας να αρνηθωμεν την ασεβειαν και τας κοσμικας επιθυμιας και να ζησωμεν σωφρονως και δικαιως και ευσεβως εν τω παροντι αιωνι,	12 and training us to reject godless ways and worldly desires and to live temperately, justly, and devoutly in this age,
13 προσμενοντες την μακαριαν ελπιδα και επιφανειαν της δοξης του μεγαλου Θεου και Σωτηρος ημων Ιησου Χριστου,	13 as we await the blessed hope, the appearance of the glory of the great God and of our savior Jesus Christ,
14 οστις εδωκεν εαυτον υπερ ημων, δια να μας λυτρωση απο πασης ανομιας και να μας καθαριση εις εαυτον λαον εκλεκτον, ζηλωτην καλων εργων.	14 who gave himself for us to deliver us from all lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people as his own, eager to do what is good.
15 Ταυτα λαλει και προτρεπε και ελεγχε μετα πασης εξουσιας? ας μη σε περιφρονη μηδεις.	15 Say these things. Exhort and correct with all authority. Let no one look down on you.
