Titus 2:1-3

Expanded Bible

Follow theTrue Teaching

2 But you must tell everyone what ·to do to follow [or is consistent with] ·the true [sound; healthy] teaching. ² Teach older men to be ·self-controlled [sober], ·serious [dignified; worthy of respect], ·wise [self-controlled], ·strong [sound; healthy] in faith, in love, and in ·patience [endurance].

³ In the same way, teach older women to be ·holy [reverent] in their behavior, not ·speaking against [slandering; gossiping about] others or enslaved to ·too much wine [excessive drinking], but teaching what is good.
