Titus 2

1 But you are to speak the things that befit sound doctrine.

١ أَمَّا أَنْتَ، فَعَلِّمْ بِمَا يُوَافِقُ التَّعْلِيمَ الصَّحِيحَ:

2 Old men should be sober, chaste, prudent, sound in faith, in love, in patience.

٢ أَنْ يَكُونَ الشُّيُوخُ ذَوِي رَزَانَةٍ وَوَقَارٍ، مُتَعَقِّلِينَ، صَحِيحِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ وَالصَّبْرِ.

3 Old women, similarly, should be in holy attire, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teaching well,

٣ وَكَذَلِكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ الْعَجَائِزُ ذَوَاتِ سِيرَةٍ مُوَافِقَةٍ لِلْقَدَاسَةِ، غَيْرَ نَمَّامَاتٍ وَلا مُدْمِنَاتٍ لِلْخَمْرِ، بَلْ مُعَلِّمَاتٍ لِمَا هُوَ صَالِحٌ،

4 so that they may teach prudence to the young women, so that they may love their husbands, love their children,

٤ لِكَيْ يُدَرِّبْنَ الشَّابَّاتِ عَلَى أَنْ يَكُنَّ مُحِبَّاتٍ لأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ وَلأَوْلادِهِنَّ،

5 be sensible, chaste, restrained, have concern for the household, be kind, be subordinate to their husbands: so that the Word of God may be not blasphemed.

٥ مُتَعَقِّلاتٍ، عَفِيفَاتٍ، مُهْتَمَّاتٍ بِشُؤُونِ بُيُوتِهِنَّ صَالِحَاتٍ، خَاضِعَاتٍ لأَزْوَاجِهِنَّ، حَتَّى لَا يَتَكَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ بِالسُّوءِ عَلَى كَلِمَةِ اللهِ.

6 Exhort young men similarly, so that they may show self-restraint.

٦ كَذَلِكَ عِظِ الشُّبَّانَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا مُتَعَقِّلِينَ،

7 In all things, present yourself as an example of good works: in doctrine, with integrity, with seriousness,

٧ جَاعِلاً مِنْ نَفْسِكَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قُدْوَةً لِلأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ، مُظْهِراً فِي تَعْلِيمِكَ النَّقَاوَةَ وَالْوَقَارَ

8 with sound words, irreproachably, so that he who is an opponent may dread that he has nothing evil to say about us.

٨ وَالْكَلِمَةَ الصَّحِيحَةَ الَّتِي لَا تُلامُ، لِكَيْ يَخْجَلَ الْمُقَاوِمُ حِينَ لَا يَجِدُ أَمْراً سَيِّئاً يَقُولُهُ فِينَا.

9 Exhort servants to be submissive to their masters, in all things pleasing, not contradicting,

٩ وَعَلِّمِ الْعَبِيدَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا خَاضِعِينَ لِسَادَتِهِمْ، مُرْضِينَ لَهُمْ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ؛ غَيْرَ مُعَانِدِينَ؛

10 not cheating, but in all things showing good fidelity, so that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

١٠ وَلا سَارِقِينَ، بَلْ مُظْهِرِينَ أَمَانَةً كُلِّيَّةً صَالِحَةً، لِكَيْ يُزَيِّنُوا فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ تَعْلِيمَ مُخَلِّصِنَا اللهِ.

11 For the grace of God our Savior has appeared to all men,

١١ فَإِنَّ نِعْمَةَ اللهِ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُ مَعَهَا الْخَلاصَ لِجَمِيعِ النَّاسِ، قَدْ ظَهَرَتْ.

12 instructing us to reject impiety and worldly desires, so that we may live soberly and justly and piously in this age, (aiōn g165)

١٢ وَهِي تُعَلِّمُنَا أَنْ نَقْطَعَ عَلاقَتَنَا بِالإِبَاحِيَّةِ وَالشَّهَوَاتِ الْعَالَمِيَّةِ، وَأَنْ نَحْيَا فِي الْعَصْرِ الْحَاضِرِ حَيَاةَ التَّعَقُّلِ وَالْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَى، (aiōn g165)

13 looking forward to the blessed hope and the advent of the glory of the great God and of our Savior Jesus Christ.

١٣ فِيمَا نَنْتَظِرُ تَحْقِيقَ رَجَائِنَا السَّعِيدِ، ثُمَّ الظُّهُورَ العَلَنِيَّ لِمَجْدِ إِلَهِنَا وَمُخَلِّصِنَا الْعَظِيمِ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ،

14 He gave himself for our sake, so that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and might cleanse for himself an acceptable people, pursuers of good works.

١٤ الَّذِي بَذَلَ نَفْسَهُ لأَجْلِنَا لِكَيْ يَفْتَدِيَنَا مِنْ كُلِّ إِثْمٍ وَيُطَهِّرَنَا لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْباً خَاصّاً يَجْتَهِدُ بِحَمَاسَةٍ فِي الأَعْمَالِ الصَّالِحَةِ.

15 Speak and exhort and argue these things with all authority. Let no one despise you.

١٥ بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ تَكَلَّمْ، وَعِظْ، وَوَبِّخْ بِكُلِّ سُلْطَانٍ، وَلا تَدَعْ أَحَداً يَسْتَخِفُّ بِكَ!
