1 А ти говори шта пристоји здравој науци: 2 Старцима да буду трезни, поштени, чисти, здрави у вери, у љубави, у трпљењу; 3 старицама, такође, да живе као што се пристоји светима, да не буду опадљиве, да се не предају врло вину, да уче добру, 4 да уче младе да љубе мужеве, да љубе децу, 5 да буду поштене, чисте, добре домаћице, благе, покорне својим мужевима, да се не хули на реч Божију. 6 Тако и младиће саветуј да буду поштени. 7 А у свему сам себе подај за углед добрих дела, у науци целост, поштење, 8 реч здраву, незазорну: да се посрами онај који се противи, не имајући ништа зло говорити за нас. 9 Слуге да слушају своје господаре, да буду угодни у свачему, да не одговарају, 10 да не краду, него у свачему да показују добру веру, да науку Спаситеља нашег Бога украшују у свачему. 11 Јер се показа благодат Божја која спасава све људе, 12 учећи нас да се одрекнемо безбожности и жеља овог света, и да поштено и праведно и побожно поживимо на овом свету, 13 чекајући блажену наду и јављање славе великог Бога и Спаса нашег Исуса Христа, 14 који је дао себе за нас да нас избави од сваког безакоња, и да очисти себи народ избрани који чезне за добрим делима. 15 Ово говори, и саветуј, и карај са сваком заповешћу да те нико не презире.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
There are some failings which age has, that youth has not. Some indeed it has in common with youth, but in addition it has a slowness, a timidity, a forgetfulness, an insensibility, and an irritability.
