But if anyone is wicked and does not believe in Christ Jesus, everything that he does makes him unclean. Such a person's way of thinking has been ruined. He does not even feel guilty when he does what is evil. \v 16 Even though they claim to know God, what they do shows that they do not know him. They are disgusting. They disobey God and can do nothing good for him. - \s5 \c 2 \p \v 1 But as for you, Titus, you must teach people what is appropriate behavior for people who believe the truth about God. -\v 2 The older men should control themselves all the time. They should live in a way that other people respect, and they should speak wisely. They should also believe the true things about God, love others truly, and continuously do these things. -\s5 -\v 3 The older women, like the men, should live so that everyone knows that they respect God very much. They must not say bad things about other people, and they must not drink very much wine. But they should teach others what is good. +\v 2 Tell the older men that they must control themselves at all times, that they must live in a way that other people respect, and that they must act sensibly. Tell them that they must also firmly believe the true things about God, love others truly, and do all these things even when it is difficult. +\s5 +\v 3 In this way, they will be able to advise the younger women to love their own husbands and children.

They should do all these things so that no one can mock God's message to us. \s5 -\v 6 And concerning the younger men, teach them, too. Tell them to control themselves well. -\v 7 As for you, Titus my son, always show other people how to do good deeds. In what you teach show the believers what is true and also show them how serious you are about your work. +\v 6 As for the younger men, urge them likewise to control themselves well. +\v 7 When you teach the believers, make sure that everything you say is true and say it in a way that they will respect. \v 8 Teach people in a way that no one can criticize, so that if anybody wants to stop you, other people will shame them because they really have nothing bad to say about any of us. \s5
