1 Sin embargo, tú enseña lo que está acorde a las creencias sanas.
1 EMPERO tú, habla lo que conviene á la sana doctrina:
1 But say the things which fit sound doctrine,
2 Los hombres de mayor edad deben ser respetables y sensatos, con una fe sana en Dios, amorosos y pacientes.
2 Que los viejos sean templados, graves, prudentes, sanos en la fe, en la caridad, en la paciencia.
2 that older men should be temperate, sensible, sober minded, sound in faith, in love, and in perseverance,
3 Del mismo modo, las mujeres de mayor edad deben comportarse de una manera que demuestre que tienen vidas dedicadas a Dios. No deben destruir la reputación de la gente con su hablar, y no deben ser adictas al vino.
3 Las viejas, asimismo, [se distingan] en un porte santo; no calumniadoras, no dadas á mucho vino, maestras de honestidad:
3 and that older women likewise be reverent in behavior, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good,
4 Deben ser maestras de lo bueno, y enseñar a las esposas más jóvenes a amar a sus esposos y a sus hijos.
4 Que enseñen á las mujeres jóvenes á ser prudentes, á que amen á sus maridos, á que amen á sus hijos,
4 that they may train the young wives to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 Deben ser sensatas y puras, hacendosas, hacedoras del bien y tener oídos prestos a lo que sus esposos les dicen. De este modo, no habrá nada malo que decir de la palabra de Dios.
5 [A ser] templadas, castas, que tengan cuidado de la casa, buenas, sujetas á sus maridos; porque la palabra de Dios no sea blasfemada.
5 to be sober minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that God’s word may not be blasphemed.
6 Del mismo modo, enseña a los hombres jóvenes a ser sensatos.
6 Exhorta asimismo á los mancebos á que sean comedidos;
6 Likewise, exhort the younger men to be sober minded.
7 Tú debes ser ejemplo de cómo hacer el bien en todas las áreas de la vida: muestra integridad y seriedad en lo que enseñas,
7 Mostrándote en todo por ejemplo de buenas obras; en doctrina [haciendo ver] integridad, gravedad,
7 In all things show yourself an example of good works. In your teaching, show integrity, seriousness, incorruptibility,
8 compartiendo creencias sanas que no puedan ser cuestionadas. Así, los que se oponen, se avergonzarán de sí mismos y no tendrán nada malo que decir acerca de nosotros.
8 Palabra sana, é irreprensible; que el adversario se avergüence, no teniendo mal ninguno que decir de vosotros.
8 and soundness of speech that can’t be condemned, that he who opposes you may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us.
9 Enseña a los siervos a que siempre obedezcan a sus amos. Enséñales que siempre deben procurar agradarles y no hablar mal a sus espaldas.
9 [Exhorta] á los siervos á que sean sujetos á sus señores, que agraden en todo, no respondones;
9 Exhort servants to be in subjection to their own masters and to be well-pleasing in all things, not contradicting,
10 Diles que no deben robar cosas para sí, sino demostrar que son completamente fieles y que pueden representar correctamente la verdad acerca de Dios, nuestro Salvador, en todas las formas.
10 No defraudando, antes mostrando toda buena lealtad, para que adornen en todo la doctrina de nuestro Salvador Dios.
10 not stealing, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior, in all things.
11 Pues la gracia de Dios ha sido revelada, otorgando salvación a todos.
11 Porque la gracia de Dios que trae salvación á todos los hombres, se manifestó,
11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,
12 Nos enseña a rechazar el estilo de vida impío junto a los deseos de este mundo. Por el contrario, debemos vivir con sensatez, vidas de dominio propio que sean rectas ante Dios, en presencia del mundo
12 Enseñándonos que, renunciando á la impiedad y á los deseos mundanos, vivamos en este siglo templada, y justa, y píamente,
12 instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;
13 mientras aguardamos la maravillosa esperanza de la aparición gloriosa de nuestro gran Dios y Salvador Jesucristo.
13 Esperando aquella esperanza bienaventurada, y la manifestación gloriosa del gran Dios y Salvador nuestro Jesucristo,
13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
14 Pues él se entregó a sí mismo por nosotros, para podernos libertar de toda nuestra maldad, y para limpiarnos para él, como un pueblo que le pertenece, y que está dispuesto a hacer el bien.
14 Que se dió á sí mismo por nosotros para redimirnos de toda iniquidad, y limpiar para sí un pueblo propio, celoso de buenas obras.
14 who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.
15 Tales cosas debes enseñar. Pues tienes autoridad para animar y corregir en cuanto sea necesario. No permitas que nadie te menosprecie.
15 Esto habla y exhorta, y reprende con toda autoridad. Nadie te desprecie.
15 Say these things and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one despise you.

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).

  1. Commentary 2:2 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Titus (Homily IV)

    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.

    … faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers?" There, too, he says: "But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: that the aged men be sober," and so on. And there, too: "These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority.

    Accordingly, when thou seest an enemy of the truth, wait on him, take care of him, lead him back into virtue, by showing forth an excellent life, by applying "speech that cannot be condemned," by bestowing attention and tender care, by trying every means of amendment, in imitation of the best physicians.
